There are only Ye Zhen and Qi Ruoshui in the room.
Qi Ruoshui walked to the window facing the street. The location of this tea house was well chosen, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"Miss Qi, please sit down." Ye Zhen sat down and put the teapot on the three-legged stove.
"Your Majesty seems to be planning to have a long talk with me." Qi Ruoshui smiled and sat down, "I didn't know she would tell you such a scandal, it's true that Xi'er's life experience is shameful, and his illness is also because of... but So what? I have already given birth to him, so can I strangle him to death?"
Ye Zhen smiled faintly, "How did Huangfu Jiulan die?"
Qi Ruoshui looked up at Ye Zhen, "Ma'am, what exactly do you want to ask?"
"Although Medical Officer Qi told me about your life experiences, she doesn't know anything about what happened after you left, but I really want to know." Ye Zhen said.
"I don't understand why the empress asked this. Could it be of any use to find Ah Chen?" Qi Ruoshui asked lightly, she didn't want to mention Huangfu Jiulan at all.
Ye Zhen smiled and said, "They are all surnamed Huangfu. Huangfu Jiulan has been in the priest's hall for so many years. Do you think there is no connection?"
"He died not long after I was taken to the priest's hall." Qi Ruoshui said quickly, with a flash of sadness in his eyes.
"How did you die?" Ye Zhen saw emotions in Qi Ruoshui's eyes for the first time. For so long, every time she saw her, her eyes were as calm as water, as if nothing in this world could stir up a little ripple in her heart. Same.
Qi Ruoshui narrowed his eyes slightly, "He died of illness."
"Que Luan took you away to cure Huangfu Jiulan, but Huangfu Jiulan's illness is not a physical illness, but a mental illness." Ye Zhen looked at her seriously and asked.
"Ma'am, I don't think this issue has anything to do with recalling Ah Chen." Qi Ruoshui asked with an ugly face, she didn't want to bring up Huangfu Jiulan's death, which was the last thing she wanted to recall in her life.
Ye Zhen ignored her words and continued, "Huangfu Jilan felt guilty because he didn't know that you were his daughter who did something wrong, so he couldn't afford to get sick. What about Queluan? How does she view this matter? After your father died, how did she treat you?"
Qi Ruoshui couldn't listen anymore, his face was gloomy and terrifying, and the disguise he had tried so hard to maintain was almost torn apart, "What does this have to do with Queluan?"
"You said that Que Luan has an adopted daughter, and the current Witch King is her adopted daughter." Ye Zhen said.
"So what?" Qi Ruoshui asked coldly.
Ye Zhen smiled, "Then let's talk about how you escaped from the Priest Hall."
Qi Ruoshui raised her eyes and looked at Ye Zhen lightly. From the moment she stepped into the capital, many things happened under her arrangement, including making Ye Zhen doubt her appearance, and even Qi Jin would tell them Her life experience was within her expectation, she never put this queen seriously, in her opinion, this queen just has a good appearance.
However, today she realized that Ye Zhen knew too much, more than she wanted to reveal.
"It's definitely not easy to escape from the priest's hall. Not only did you escape, but you also lived in silence for more than ten years somewhere, and it just so happened that you appeared when Mr. Huangfu was captured by the priest's hall. You should have been there for many years." Have you met Mr. Huangfu?" Ye Zhen asked with a smile.
Qi Ruoshui looked at her coldly, "Mother, you have been questioning me since you sat down just now, so what are you suspecting? Huangfuchen was taken away by me, and I ran to the capital without a clear mind. Throw yourself into a trap, what did I do to make you doubt me so much?"
"Isn't everything you did to make me suspect you?" Ye Zhen smiled lightly, "You probably didn't see the note left by Mr. Huangfu."
Qi Ruoshui's face darkened slightly. After she took Huangfuchen away, she did not go to see what clues he would leave behind, because it was not necessary. It was in Qi State, even if someone found Huangfuchen missing and found that place later. By then, all clues had disappeared.
"You know that he left clues... So you have been sending secret guards to follow him?" Qi Ruoshui asked with a frown.
Ye Zhen didn't speak, the hidden guards sent by Mo Rongzhan had been thrown away by Huang Fuchen, otherwise they wouldn't have only found the note he left when they found him.
"It seems that your hidden guards are not that powerful." Seeing that Ye Zhen hadn't said anything, Qi Ruoshui chuckled, "Then, since your mother suspects me, it must be more than these, what else is yours?" Why doubt me?"
Ye Zhen said softly, "If Mr. Huangfu is not someone who is very familiar with him, it is impossible to know where he is, let alone approach him and take him away. Only you, and Mr. Shan, you have Mr. Shan here too. Bumizhen, Mr. Huangfu is her savior, it is only natural for her to come back to the capital to tell me the news for Mr. Huangfu, Ye Yaoyao also came back to look for you, right?"
Qi Ruoshui looked up at Ye Zhen, "The Empress has suspected me for so long but still hasn't confirmed it, why is she so sure today?"
"Because I can't think of any woman who can hurt her child so cruelly, probably...the people who came out of the priest's hall are more unusual." Ye Zhen looked at Qi Ruoshui coldly, "It seems that Que Luan will take you as an adopted daughter... Excellent training."
"The empress is really smart." Qi Ruoshui chuckled, it seemed that it would be useless to pretend any longer, "What are you going to do now?"
"How about the Witch King tell Ben Gong why you took Mr. Huangfu away?" Ye Zhen asked quietly.
Qi Ruoshui curled his lips into a smile, and squinted at Ye Zhen coquettishly, "I heard that apart from Emperor Jin, Huang Fuchen also has a deep affection for you. I've always wanted to know what kind of woman you, Lu Yaoyao, are."
Ye Zhen looked at her coldly, "Mr. Huangfu is my master."
"Master?" Qi Ruoshui covered his mouth and smiled, "What's the big deal if Master falls in love with his apprentice."
"Compared to you?" Ye Zhen asked lightly.
Qi Ruoshui's face turned cold.
Ye Zhen continued, "Control the kingship of Xiliang, capture Mr. Huangfu, let Xiliang and Jin Kingdom go to war, Wu Wang, what do you want to do?"
"Why don't you invite the empress to the priest's hall, won't you know everything by then?" Qi Ruoshui said.
Hearing what Qi Ruoshui said, Ye Zhen also understood the reason why she came to the capital in person, "It's really hard work to trouble the Witch King to invite me to the priest's hall in person."
"Not entirely for you." Qi Ruoshui said with a smile, "I still want to take back my son. After all, he was born by myself, so he should always be with him."
