Chapter 988: Chapter 988 Soft and Flimsy, Unable to Exert Any Strength!

"Why do we have to bring her up again?"

Qin Yi lifted his head from Su Pan’er’s neck with dissatisfaction, a flash of understanding in his eyes, "Or could it be... that my Empress is feeling jealous?"

"Jealous? Who! I am not."

Su Pan’er was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, suddenly bristling!

"Yes, yes, you’re not jealous!"

Qin Yi couldn’t help but chuckle, then leaned in again, "Rest assured, my heart only has place for you, the Empress!"

"I said, I am not jealous! Jiu Lan, where are my clothes?"

Su Pan’er pushed him away forcefully and called for her maid. Jiu Lan, who had been waiting outside, dared not neglect and quickly brought the dress. Su Pan’er didn’t pay attention to the fiery gaze behind her, and quickly changed her clothes.

After she had dressed, she pushed him away again, stepped out from behind the screen, went back to the table, and started to eat her dinner unhurriedly. The playful smile on her face had long disappeared, leaving only a calm demeanor.

"Your Majesty, you haven’t finished your dinner yet!"

Qin Yi rubbed his nose and followed her, striding to sit opposite Su Pan’er, watching her eat the food in her bowl at a leisurely pace.

"Still say you’re not jealous? I understand now, my Pan’er is not jealous, she’s unhappy!"

Her patience ran out, and Su Pan’er slammed her bamboo chopsticks onto the imperial desk with a "snap": "Your Majesty, do you not wish to eat anymore? Very well! Jiu Lan, quickly clear it away!"

After speaking, she didn’t wait for Jiu Lan to respond and got up and left.

Oh no!

It seemed the little cat had exploded in anger!

Qin Yi smiled, didn’t even glance at the dinner on the table, and hurriedly followed.

"Your Majesty, surely you didn’t come tonight just to speak of love?"

Su Pan’er suddenly turned around: "Didn’t you say that you are going out of the palace tomorrow? Aren’t you going to prepare? Today, I have heard quite a few things. It’s said that Old Mrs. Qin has been very active lately, making many in Shengjing take notice!"

Her words made Qin Yi’s smug smile freeze: "Why bring her up all of a sudden, Pan’er? It’s a good time, beautiful scenery, and the moon is just right. Let’s change the subject and have a good chat."

"Alright! Let’s change the topic, and talk about those beauties in your Imperial Harem’s Palace. Each of them is a national beauty and heavenly fragrance, with the appearance that would make the moon hide in shame and the geese fall from the sky. No wonder you can’t bear to leave them!"

Su Pan’er deliberately brought up what he was reluctant to discuss.

This left Qin Yi stunned for a moment, then he relaxed: "Pan’er, you should know that I have never told you a lie. As for those concubines, I am not interested in them. I also said to give me a little more time to deal with this matter. I will definitely give you a perfect answer."

"Your sweet nothings are very touching."

Too bad they were just words, with no visible action to follow.

"I’m beginning to suspect that your heart is made of stone, Pan’er. I’ve spewed a wicker basket full of sweet talk until my mouth is dry, and yet it seems to have no effect at all."

Qin Yi looked wounded but his eyes showed he was completely serious.

Su Pan’er was just rinsing her mouth with refreshment. Hearing this, she slowly sipped her tea, rinsed her mouth carefully, and spat it into a basin beside her, then picked up a handkerchief and delicately wiped her mouth without even lifting her eyelids.

"I was just saying today’s refreshment tastes a bit strange, apparently because they added two extra leaves than usual."

This made Qin Yi feel like his punch had landed on a clump of cotton, completely without force.

He gave up his wounded facade and called out in a deep voice, "Pan’er!"

"Is there a wrinkle on my face?"

Su Pan’er suddenly looked up.

"Of course not, why would you ask?"

"If there are no wrinkles on my body, it means I am not old yet. Not being old, I can naturally hear clearly, there’s no need to shout."

"Pan’er, you..."

Qin Yi was simply at a loss!

It was the first time he realized that Su Pan’er was so difficult to talk to.

Su Pan’er wasn’t exactly difficult to talk to. She had already decided that if Qin Yi didn’t send away all those women from the Imperial Harem’s Palace, he could forget about climbing into her bed or touching her again!

Especially after she had seen Feng Xiyue today!

Feng Xiyue had unexpectedly become a nobleman! Although the title of nobleman was just a rank for the lesser concubines in the palace, it still set off alarm bells for Su Pan’er!

According to the rules, newcomers who had just entered the palace usually had no chance of being promoted in rank. Generally, unless the emperor specially decreed it, one had to serve the emperor in bed to be conferred the title of nobleman!

The thought of this man, who always had sweet words on his lips, actually touching another woman, how could the naturally competitive Su Pan’er maintain a pleasant face?

"By the way, today I met ’Feng Gui Ren (honourable person Feng)’."

"’Feng Gui Ren’? Who is that?"

Qin Yi looked puzzled.

"Now you’re curious? You come to ask me who your own nobleman is. Don’t you find it funny?"

Su Pan’er, bringing up Feng Xiyue, really couldn’t be said to have a good attitude, "She is the ’Yangzhou skinny horse’ you used to have, the beautiful woman that your Shangfeng presented to you!"

"Oh! — You’re talking about her?"

Qin Yi suddenly understood and then curiously looked at her again, "What about her? That’s all something from years ago. Why are you bringing her up all of a sudden?"

Su Pan’er stared at Qin Yi for a long time before she finally realized.

Qin Yi probably didn’t even remember her!

Thinking this, her heart suddenly felt much better.

"It’s like this, the Feng Family’s massacre that occurred years ago, you yourself once said it seemed like a wrongful case. However, it involved the previous emperor and empress, which made it difficult to overturn. Now that you have ascended the throne, why not have someone investigate this case?"

Qin Yi still had a fresh memory of the case concerning the Feng Family from years past. Now that Su Pan’er reminded him, he immediately understood.

"The Feng Family case? I already know about it, leave this matter to me!"

Qin Yi continued to add, "Nevertheless, trying to overturn the case might be difficult. Everything will depend on their fortunes."

"It’s just about giving them an opportunity."

Having fulfilled her promise, Su Pan’er felt much more at ease and then talked with Qin Yi about Feng Xiyue and Feng Jiu.

"It’s not easy for others to say, but if Liu Yankang gets involved in the case of the former emperor, the implications for the Liu Family will broaden. The intricacies are too deep, it won’t be easy to overturn the case. What we can do now is to seek the ’Heavenly Mandate’ wholeheartedly."

"Let’s investigate it if possible."

Su Pan’er didn’t insist on clearing Feng Xiyue’s name; her attention was also on the leaders of those mysterious organizations.

"So many years have passed, those people from that year have all grown old. But the leader of that mysterious organization has yet to reveal his true identity. Who is this person, and what role did he play in the Feng Family case? Once we clarify these things, everything else will be easy to handle."
