Ye Zhen sat in the carriage for a long time, and slept in the carriage for a long time. At this time, she didn't feel tired, so she wanted to go for a walk. As for the two maids sent by Mo Rong Zhanxin, she didn't know them well enough. The plan to let them serve her personally, anyway, they just need to protect her, and guarding outside can also protect her.
"Your Majesty, that Donghe Xiahe seems to be a practicing family." Hongying supported Ye Zhen's hand and walked around the Daohuayuan. Looking at the two court ladies not far away, she couldn't help lowering her voice. Remind Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen smiled faintly, "If they didn't know martial arts, they wouldn't be here. Don't think too much, the emperor's appointment is no problem."
Although Hongying didn't understand what the emperor meant by doing this, did she want more people to protect the empress
"Your Majesty, there is another world behind this yard." Hongying supported Ye Zhen's hand, looking at the garden behind the yard in surprise.
There used to be two gardens in this Daohuayuan, and the front was already a big one. Unexpectedly, there was another garden behind the dormitory. In the middle of the garden was a bamboo house made of purple bamboo. Hong Ling went forward and opened the door, exclaiming in surprise , "It's a hot spring."
"This garden is very beautiful." Joy flashed in Ye Zhen's eyes, she likes this new yard, every flower and grass here can be seen to be Mo Rongzhan's thoughts, when did he prepare this yard here, she actually Not at all.
"Empress, the emperor is so kind to you." Hongying said with a smile, "Even if the empress lives in the villa, the emperor always thinks of you."
Looking at the garden, Ye Zhen felt a sour and sweet feeling in her heart. She didn't know if she had a sympathy, but she suddenly turned her head and saw Murong Zhan walking in from outside.
Hongying and Hongling looked at each other, and they quietly left.
"Are you finished?" Ye Zhen asked with a smile, reaching out to hook his arm.
"I asked Tang Zhen to increase defenses around the villa, and asked him to stay here too..." Mo Rongzhan said in a low voice.
Ye Zhen sighed helplessly, "You still need people in the capital, if you let Tang Zhen stay here, you will lose someone who can help you, and you will be surrounded by soldiers, what else can I do?"
"Yaoyao..." Mo Rongzhan looked at her with lowered eyes and frowning.
"I'm not under house arrest here. I don't need so many people. If Tang Zhen stays behind, I still have to worry about the untrustworthy people around you." Ye Zhen said angrily, "If you continue to do this, I will Let’s go back to the palace with you.”
Mo Rongzhan smiled wryly, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
"Walk with me." Ye Zhen said with a smile, "When did the Daohuayuan be expanded? I don't know about it, and this hot spring...it looks really good, but it's a pity that I can't go there now."
"I don't remember when the expansion was done. Not long after I returned to the palace, I received a memorial saying that the expansion has been completed. It seems to be a thing of the past." Mo Rongzhan said.
Ye Zhen hooked his neck, tiptoed and kissed his chin, "I like it very much."
Mo Rongzhan's deep eyes floated into a smile, "As long as you like it."
"You still don't go back, don't you have to go to bed early tomorrow?" Ye Zhen buried her face in his arms, really reluctant to part with him.
"No hurry, I'll accompany you to dinner before going back." Murongzhan's voice was hoarse, and he walked forward holding her hand, "I also want to take a walk around."
Ye Zhen saw that he was really not in a hurry to go back to the palace, so she stopped urging him, anyway, it would be better to spend more time together.
…
…
The empress was sent out of the palace!
This news was like a thunderbolt exploding in the palace. Ye Zhen's carriage had just left the capital, and the news could not be concealed and spread throughout the palace. In their view, Hu Yue'er is the one who will be favored by the emperor, and she should know the situation best.
"Your Majesty, Concubine An Hui is asking to see you outside." Xiang Qiao came in and said to Hu Yue'er.
Hu Yueer said, "Let her go back."
She didn't need to think about what An Xiuzhen was here for. She was not in the mood to deal with it now. Thinking of the empress being sent out of the palace, her heart was not at peace.
Why... She doesn't understand what the emperor means by doing this. Could it be that the empress has fallen out of favor like this? She still has the emperor's child in her stomach. If it is a boy, then it is the emperor's eldest son. Even if it is the emperor's eldest son, it is impossible for the emperor to make the queen lose her dignity.
Could it be that the emperor just wants to punish the empress for being jealous
Hu Yue'er's heart beat faster, she held Xiangqiao's hand, "Xiangqiao, do you think the Empress has angered the emperor?"
Xiangqiao said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, there must be something that other people don't know about the Emperor and Empress, otherwise...or why the Emperor left the Yongshou Palace yesterday and didn't go back, the Empress must have done something."
"She was sent out of the capital..." Hu Yue'er gasped, feeling that the news was so unbelievable that she couldn't believe it was true.
"Your Majesty, maybe this is a chance given to you by heaven." Xiangqiao said in a low voice. Without the Empress Dowager in the palace, it will undoubtedly remove the big stone in everyone's heart. Will you be able to please the Emperor and become another one in the palace? If you are lucky, you will dare to master the skills of each master.
Their concubines have just been conferred the title of concubine Shu, and they exist in the emperor's heart, so they must have more opportunities than others.
Hu Yue'er got up and walked to the bed, looking at the looming Yongshou Palace in the distance, her eyes sparkled brightly, "This is my chance..."
The queen is not in the palace, the emperor will not continue to go to Yongshou Palace, other people in the harem have the opportunity to serve the emperor, this time she will not be as naive as last time, she will let the emperor really care about her.
"Your Majesty, where do you think the empress will be sent?" Xiang Qiao walked to Hu Yue'er with a stack of melons.
Hu Yueer smiled and shook her head, "It's hard to say, I should go to Chengde Villa, after all, she is still pregnant."
Best to never come back! Xiangqiao secretly thought in his heart, so that their empresses would have a chance to stand out.
"Quietly go and find out if the emperor is in the palace." Hu Yue'er whispered to Xiangqiao.
Xiangqiao nodded lightly, "I will go and inquire now, servant girl."
Nowadays, everyone in the palace guesses that Concubine Shu is favored. It is not difficult for her to spend a little money to find out the news. Most people want to build a good relationship with Xiuhe Palace.
It didn't take long for Hu Yue'er to get the news she wanted.
"Your Majesty, I heard that the Emperor has been in Qianqing Palace all this time, and Eunuch Fu has never left." Xiangqiao whispered in Hu Yueer's ear.
Hu Yue'er finally showed a real smile, "Don't go out to inquire about any news these days, and stay quietly in Xiuhe Palace."
The emperor would not like a woman who was too showy, and he would not allow someone to throw stones at the empress at this time.
