Phoenix candles are shining in Fengxi Hall, and the exquisite decorations in the hall reflect the candlelight, shining everywhere.

Ye Chu glanced at Yunxiu who was waiting beside him, waved the latter to back off, and said, "Yunxiu, I don't need you to wait by my side today, let someone else be on duty!"

Wen Zheng looked up inadvertently and glanced at Yunxiu's slightly trembling hand, a helpless smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

He has found out that the one who assassinated Ye Chu on the alley in the Imperial Garden that day... was this female official named Yunxiu.

But now it seems that Ye Chu not only took care of this person, but also took good care of him.

When he came to Fengqi Palace in the past, he had never seen such a female official serving Ye Chu. Obviously, Yunxiu was promoted by Ye Chu recently!Maybe this transaction is related to Ye Chu's assassination.

Wen Zheng frowned insignificantly, lifted the wine cup in his hand and drank it down with his neck raised, with an indelible melancholy in his eyes.

He knew that Ye Chu was doing these things without telling him, and he was unwilling to reveal anything, it must be related to the things in Zhuyin Temple.But even if the misunderstanding of Zhuyin Temple has not been resolved, it will not be so troublesome that Ye Chu will make a fake assassination and take the opportunity to hurt him.

Watching Yunxiu retreat, Wen Zheng looked at Ye Chu's graceful posture under the candlelight, but he never cast a glance at himself when walking around in the hall.

As time passed, he felt more and more lonely, and finally couldn't help but said: "Recently, merchants from Fanbang have brought a lot of new gadgets to the capital to sell, and they have obtained a few wonderful treasures from the palace. Fengqi Palace will enjoy with you."

Eunuch Zhang who was standing beside him immediately smiled when he heard this, his eyes narrowed into two slits.

"Empress, these things are quite novel. As soon as the emperor heard the report from the Shang Palace Bureau, he sent people to take them to Fengqi Palace."

Eunuch Zhang clapped his hands while talking, and immediately someone came in from outside with a tray.

The things on the tray were covered with a red cloth, and they were so mysterious that they didn't know what good things were under the silk cloth, so they had to be sent to the most honorable person in the world.

Wen Zheng originally wanted to use these things to please Ye Chu, but who knew that after Ye Chu saw it, he couldn't even arouse interest in what was under the silk cloth.

She just raised her brows and eyes lightly, and asked someone to take the things down so that they could be stored away.

The poor treasure that cannot be seen by others, after being put into the warehouse of Fengqi Temple, it is unknown when it will be able to see the sun again.The pearl is dusty, and there is nothing more than this!

Wen Zheng sighed inwardly, it was impossible to say that he would not be disappointed if his intentions were wasted.

At this moment, Ye Chu looked up at Wen Zheng again, picked up the teacup and said in a deep voice: "The concubine who takes the position of empress has the responsibility of admonishing the emperor to concentrate on government affairs... Now that the court is in troubled times, the emperor should Pay more attention to the government affairs of the court, instead of thinking about these trivial matters."

As soon as she finished speaking, her expression changed when she saw Wen Zheng, and she guessed that Wen Zheng wanted to defend herself.

So Ye Chu took the lead and said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to say too much. Today, my concubine is not feeling well. Forgive me for not being able to serve the Emperor. Please choose another place for me!"

This is the order to evict guests. No matter how depressed Wen Zheng felt in his heart and wanted to explain to Ye Chu with thousands of words, but facing Ye Chu who looked cold and resisted all over his body, he could only hold on for a while. He flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.

The news that the emperor and the empress had a disagreement spread faintly.It is no longer a secret in the palace at this time, although Wen Zheng often runs to the Fengqi Palace, the fact that the two often break up at odds has long been known to everyone in the Sixth Palace.

Ye Kang paid close attention to the matter of Wen Zheng and Ye Chu, and learned the news the next day.He thought of Ye Chu's stubborn character, and after a little guessing, he deduced the reason.

When Ye Kang returned to the mansion after the court, he didn't go to the study to deal with official business immediately, but had someone call Liu Ruyi in front of him.

"Why is the master so interested in calling my concubine here today? Could it be that something happened to Chu'er in the palace?" Liu Ruyi stepped into the room, saw Ye Kang standing in front of the window with closed eyes and pondering, and asked aloud.

Hearing the footsteps coming from far and near behind him, Ye Kang did not move, and after a while he said slowly: "The news of disharmony between the emperor and the empress is very loud, and I have also noticed that Chu'er is in a difficult situation in the palace recently. I don't know what she thinks, although she is pregnant with the emperor's heir, the emperor's favor must never be broken!"

Hearing that Ye Chu was in a difficult situation, Liu Ruyi's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately cheered up and asked Ye Kang.

Seeing the sincere worry on Liu Ruyi's face, Ye Kang's eyes flashed, full of calculations.He knew that Ye Chu would ignore his words, but he had never been able to keep Liu Ruyi out.

Liu Ruyi's love for Ye Chu became a way of calculation in Ye Kang's hands.

Hearing Ye Kang eloquently talk about the difficulties Ye Chu encountered in the palace, the more Liu Ruyi listened, the more sad she became, and she faintly regretted sending Ye Chu into the palace.But now the whole thing is done, and Ye Chu, as the queen of the dynasty, can no longer get out of this quagmire.

After Ye Kang finished speaking, Liu Ruyi, who was wiping her tears with a handkerchief, couldn't bear it any longer, so she waved her hand and called the maid beside her to hand out a sign to the palace asking to see Ye Chu.

What Ye Kang wanted was this effect. Seeing that the goal was achieved, he sent Liu Ruyi away, and began to calculate how much benefit he could get by taking advantage of the Zhuyin Temple incident in the court.

The news of Ye Chu's falling off the cliff in Zhuyin Temple had already been heard by Ye Kang, but he kept it secret all the time, because he wanted to seize the opportunity to take a big bite out of Qin Qi's body.

Seeing Liu Ruyi handing over the sign asking to see him, Ye Chu thought for a while, but couldn't bear to refuse after all.

Zhi Qing persuaded from the side: "No matter what is the reason for Madam's coming this time, Madam's love and love for Niangniang cannot be faked. Mistress must not disappoint Madam's heart."

Liu Ruyi did bad things with good intentions, and these court ladies all saw them.Facing such a good person, no one can say anything, let alone how embarrassing Ye Chu is in it as a daughter.

With some headaches, Ye Chu raised her hand and rubbed the center of her brows. She definitely wanted to see Liu Ruyi... But after seeing Liu Ruyi, whether she could make the other party do what Ye Kang wanted was up to her.

Thinking of this, Ye Chu fixed his gaze, and ordered Zhiqing and Yunxiu to start preparing for the meeting tomorrow.

When Liu Ruyi came to Fengqi Hall the next day, she saw Ye Chu and sighed with concern.The mother and daughter drank a cup of tea each before expressing the concern they had not seen for many days.

At this moment, Liu Ruyi thought of Ye Kang's vague hints before leaving the house, so she politely asked about the details of the Zhuyin Temple incident.
