Five years after her death, she awoke on the dragon bed.

Chapter 183 The situation is tense
Lou Suyi looked at Murong speechlessly, thinking that the emperor was really good at patting himself on the back, and that she couldn't possibly feel guilty.

Furthermore, whether she snores or not is debatable.

"Then Your Majesty should go and accompany the Empress Dowager." Lou Suyi wished Murong would leave as soon as possible.

To her surprise, Murong said, "You will accompany me."

Lou Suyi had no desire to be seen with Murong: "I'd rather not. His Majesty is with the Empress Dowager; would it be too much of a hindrance for me to go?"

"It was the Empress Dowager who ordered you to serve before the Emperor, not I who forced you to go. What, you want to secretly comply but secretly disobey?" Murong glanced at Lou Suyi.

Lou Suyi was speechless and could not answer.

They quickly finished their lunch, and Murong picked up the child, gesturing for Lou Suying to follow.

Lou Suying deliberately lagged behind and whispered to Jinshu, "Do I snore when I sleep?"

Jinshu was taken aback: "When you are pregnant with the little prince, your breathing is heavier when you are tired. It seems that you don't have this at other times."

Lou Suyi thought about it and realized that she had gotten up early today, so it was normal for her breathing to be heavier after falling asleep. It seemed that the emperor was not trying to smear her.

But she didn't expect that Murong would overhear her conversation with Jinshu.

He turned around and looked at me with a half-smile: "You think I'm lying to you?"

Lou Suyi chuckled awkwardly: "How could that be? I'm just worried that I might have some kind of problem, so it's better to find out."

She's such a beauty, and so young, how could she snore so early?
If someone snores at this age, what will happen when they get older?

For a moment, she wondered if the five years she had disappeared had gone somewhere, which was why she had aged prematurely, and that she had just lost that memory.

But her face is still the same as it was six years ago. How do you explain that?

Yes, she has been in the palace for over a year. Murong doesn't seem to care where she went during those years she disappeared, or why she was able to return under those circumstances six years ago.

To be honest, she herself was curious about how she managed to come back alive under those circumstances.

Did she come back from the dead last year, or did that jump take her directly from the past to the present?
Will her situation lead to any unpredictable consequences in the future?

Thinking of this, she touched her whole body and felt that there was nothing uncomfortable about her.

Just as she was touching herself with both hands, she sensed a strange gaze.

She looked up and met Murong's indescribable gaze.

She then realized what she was doing and quickly withdrew her hand.

Murong, carrying the child, walked up to her and looked down at her: "Would you like Liu Qing to take your pulse?"

Lou Suyi immediately realized that he suspected she had a mental problem.

She was instantly enraged and embarrassed: "What does Your Majesty mean? Why am I taking your pulse?"

Murong looked her up and down for a while before saying, "I was just asking casually, there's no need for you to be angry."

Lou Suying took a deep breath, trying her best to suppress her temper. She told herself that he was the emperor, and she could not be disrespectful to him.

Even if he doubted his own mind, she knew she was normal, so why bother arguing with a petty emperor?

"I'm not angry. Which eye of Your Majesty saw me angry?" Lou Suying replied softly. Murong smiled faintly and said to the little Mu Chen in his arms, "Your father made your mother angry just now. When you grow up, you must remember to help your father make your mother happy."

Lou Suying grinned, thinking to herself that if he said less, he wouldn't make her angry.

Jinshu saw Lou Suyi glaring at the Emperor with anger and found the scene rather strange.

Before serving the young lady, she served in front of the emperor. His Majesty was mature beyond his years, spoke very little, and possessed great imperial power. A single glance from him was extremely intimidating, and no one dared to be presumptuous in front of him. The young lady was clearly the first.

These are all secondary.

She felt that His Majesty treated the young lady differently from others. Even when facing the most favored Consort Hui, His Majesty was always serious and unsmiling.

However, when interacting with the girl, His Majesty not only talked more, but also seemed to deliberately provoke her at many times.

The girl, however, failed to see this and was repeatedly led by the nose by His Majesty.

When Lou Suying accompanied Murong to the lakeside, not only was Empress Dowager Chen present, but also the ten concubines who had accompanied the emperor on this trip. Apart from Consort Li, who was unwell, the others of higher rank were all in the entourage.

Upon seeing Murong, all the beauties stepped forward and bowed to him.

Murong, preoccupied with looking at the little Mu Chen in his arms, said indifferently, "No need for formalities."

Seeing that Murong's attention was on the child, Liang Wanying stepped forward to hold little Muchen's hand, but Empress Dowager Chen was very nervous: "Don't touch Chen'er!"

Her voice was so loud that everyone present turned their attention to Leung Yuen-ying.

Liang Wanying was a woman of many experience. Although she was unhappy, she did not show it on her face: "I just think Chen'er is cute and I want to hold him. Your Majesty, please don't take it to heart."

This old hag was utterly humiliated by the late emperor, and now, relying on her status as Empress Dowager, she is extremely critical of her. She is truly despicable!

"I told you, don't touch Chen'er!" Empress Dowager Chen said bluntly. "You can know a person's face but not their heart. Who knows if you're harboring any evil intentions?"

Liang Wanying looked at Murong with a wronged expression: "Your Majesty, I really just like Chen'er and wanted to tease him. It's not like what the Empress Dowager said. Please, Your Majesty, do me justice."

Empress Dowager Chen was furious at Liang Wanying's affected manner. She said with a stern face, "Your Majesty, you should be discerning in your judgment of people. You'd better stay away from a vixen like Consort Hui!"

Liang Wanying's eyes reddened as she looked at Murong: "I didn't..."

She never even had a night with the emperor, so how could she be called a wicked concubine?
If she had served the emperor like Lou Suyi and given birth to a prince, then it wouldn't be unjust for her to be called a wicked concubine. But she did nothing.

Murong stepped forward and handed the child to Empress Dowager Chen: "Mother, please be kind to Consort Hui. I believe she will not do anything to harm Chen'er."

Empress Dowager Chen was furious upon hearing this: "Is the Emperor trying to protect Consort Hui?"

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit tense, Lou Suyi quickly stepped forward and said to Empress Dowager Chen, "Chen'er wants to talk to Your Majesty, but Your Majesty is ignoring him. The child will be sad."

Empress Dowager Chen looked down and saw that Xiao Muchen was grinning at her.

In an instant, all her anger vanished without a trace.

"Shall I accompany Your Majesty the Empress Dowager for a walk?" Lou Suyi gave Empress Dowager Chen a sweet smile.

Empress Dowager Chen knew that Lou Suying was trying to help her and the Emperor out of a predicament. If she and her son were to quarrel because of Liang Wanying, wouldn't Liang Wanying be the one who would be pleased? It would also make her a laughing stock in front of everyone.

She was in charge of the harem and couldn't allow the emperor to embarrass her in front of everyone.

Su Yi was doing this for her own good, so she should naturally go along with it. She softened her expression and said, "Walk with me for a bit."
