Fortunately, Wen Zheng didn't lose his temper this time, but asked the servants of Fengqi Palace to get another set of bedding and spread it outside Ye Chu's bed.

Eunuch Zhang stared dumbfounded at the ninety-five supreme being who had made a bunk next to the bed where the empress was sleeping, and for a while didn't know how to persuade him.

This kind of demeanor behavior is not easy to spread to the outside world. Eunuch Zhang reacted and quickly asked the people who served beside him to retreat.

In Fengqi Palace, everyone kept this matter a secret, fearing that if news spread, it would bring disaster to themselves and their master.

As Ye Chu's most capable court lady, Zhi Qing was so frightened that she didn't dare to close her eyes all night, so she kept vigil outside the door.

After finally holding out until the rooster crowed in the palace, Eunuch Zhang went in as if he had been pardoned, and urged Wen Zheng to get up, wash and dress, and go to court.

Zhi Qing also walked in, and saw her master lying on the bed with her eyes open.

Ye Chu heard the footsteps of someone walking towards him, supported himself with his hands, and slowly sat up from the bed.Her jet-black hair was scattered on her shoulders, showing a rare soft posture.

Zhi Qing knelt beside Ye Chu and combed Ye Chu's hair without saying a word.

But thinking that this matter is Ye Chu's own knot, and Ye Chu has been very determined since he was a child. She has persuaded her many times to no avail, so why bother to cast dust on the friendship between master and servant at this time?

It was this kind of thinking that made Zhi Qing dismiss her original thoughts, Ye Chu looked at her thoughtfully and did not speak again.

But after a while, when Ye Chu sat at the table and began to enjoy breakfast, looking at the empty seat in front of him, he still couldn't help asking: "When did the emperor leave?"

Zhi Qing hurriedly reported the time of Wen Zheng's departure, she was talking, when she suddenly remembered that today's arrangement was to meet the female relatives from the outer dynasty, that is, the time when Ye Chu's mother Liu Ruyi came to pay a visit to the palace.

Thinking of his mother, whom he hadn't seen for many days, Ye Chu's hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly.

Liu Ruyi is a true lady of the family, she takes care of her husband and children at home, and is kind to her children. Unfortunately, all her true love is destroyed by the conspiracy devised by her husband and son.

The tragic situation in the previous life is still lingering in Ye Chu's mind.She suddenly lost her appetite to eat, so she asked someone to remove the table from the table.

Another half an hour later, Ye Chu asked someone to take Liu Ruyi from the house into the palace. As the Queen of the Central Palace, she naturally had such privileges.

On the way into the palace, Liu Ruyi asked a lot of questions to the maid sent by Ye Chu, nothing more than the news that Ye Chu fell out of favor in the harem recently.

The attendants all said that although the Empress of the Central Palace was pregnant and had a noble status, she was still not as grand as the concubine Shu.

Liu Ruyi was already uneasy, but after hearing a lot of rumors on the way into the palace, she felt that Ye Chu's position in the palace was not stable.

When the mother and daughter met, Ye Chu's pale complexion made her even more helpless, and Liu Ruyi's heart ached.

Seeing her daughter's calm expression, she didn't even see any disturbance when she mentioned the emperor, so she sighed and tried to persuade her: "No matter what you say, this world belongs to men."

As soon as Ye Chu heard Liu Ruyi's first sentence, he had a bad premonition in his heart.

She felt a little helpless in her heart, although she looked bad now, living alone in Fengqi Palace was not bad.

Now she has a heart knot about Wen Zheng, and she doesn't even really like the child in her womb, let alone the father of the child. The memories of her previous life are always unforgettable in her heart.

Liu Ruyi didn't know about these things, she just said: "Why do you have to deal with the emperor, it's better to let go of your figure, save some face and more honor for yourself, so as to prevent that girl from the Qin family from riding on your head and dominating you Otherwise, what majesty is there for you, the Queen of the Palace!"

The conversation between the mother and daughter broke up unhappily. Although Ye Chu didn't show his impatience with Liu Ruyi's words on his face, Zhi Qing, who was waiting carefully at the side, was already frightened.

Seeing that Ye Chu remained indifferent to her words of persuasion, Liu Ruyi shook her head and said nothing more.

When Ye Chu excused himself to be tired and chose to rest, Zhi Qing took a step behind and stayed outside.

Seeing that the bead curtains in the sleeping hall were lowered and Ye Chu's graceful figure was no longer visible, Zhi Qing lowered her voice and said to Liu Ruyi: "Recently, the relationship between the empress and the emperor is not easy to talk about, the most important thing is not to listen to such words. Ma'am, don't mention this matter again."

Liu Ruyi was taken aback for a moment when she heard the words, and then turned her head in embarrassment to look at the blooming peonies outside the window.

She didn't look at Zhi Qing who was walking towards the inner hall, she glanced around cautiously from the corner of her eyes, and muttered: "But now the Qin family is full of prestige in the court hall, and it's the same in the harem. What should our Ye family do?" How to gain a foothold, I am afraid that the position in the middle palace... will become unstable in the long run!"

With this worried thought in mind, Liu Ruyi returned to Ye's house, just in time to bump into Ye Kang who was coming back from the top down.

Ye Kang got down from the carriage, saw the maid beside Liu Ruyi was still holding the gift box from the palace, and immediately reacted.

He coughed lightly, and walked to Liu Ruyi's side, his expression was not at all relaxed, and there was only business-like seriousness in his naked eyes.

"Looking at you like this, you just came back from the palace. How are you persuading me?"

Liu Ruyi, who was walking inside, heard the voice behind her, and immediately froze, turned her head slowly, and saluted Ye Kang.

Although she is the wife of the Ye family, she is still a little alienated from her usually serious husband.

Since Ye Kang asked, Liu Ruyi naturally wouldn't hide it, so she said what she said to Ye Chu in the palace today, even with Ye Chu's disinterested reaction.

From Liu Ruyi's words, Ye Kang heard her worry about Ye Chu not being favored in the palace.

He knew in his heart that Wen Zheng was sincere towards Ye Chu, and things would definitely not be as rumored by those snarky servants.But thinking of the relationship between Liu Ruyi and Ye Chu, the corners of Ye Kang's mouth moved slightly, revealing a mocking smile.

This is an excellent opportunity to persuade Liu Ruyi to send someone to attack Gong Ye Chu Guchong.

Thinking in this way, Ye Kang followed with a worried look, as if he casually mentioned the way Qin Qi scolded Fang Qiu in the court today.

What Liu Ruyi is most worried about now is the Qin family, Ye Kang's words just hit the pain point in her heart.

"Then what should I do now, Chu'er is isolated and helpless in the palace, but that concubine Shu is very arrogant..."

While Liu Ruyi was muttering to herself, Ye Kang suddenly mentioned the woman who was sent to the palace a few days ago, and said: "Now Chu'er is unable to sleep in the palace because she is pregnant with the prince. The daughter of the Qin family has gained a lot of money, if our Ye family can send in a stunning woman, wouldn't it just be possible to take advantage of Chu'er's glory?"
