"Your Majesty, it's getting late, go get some rest early." The palace maid stood beside the bed and looked at the Queen Mother with a concerned look on her face.
"Well..." The Queen Mother closed her eyes slightly, and then slowly got up from the bed, "I'm not very sleepy yet, help me to sit in the yard."
"Yes." The palace maid responded in a low voice, then stepped forward to gently lift up the Queen Mother's arm, and carefully guided her toward the courtyard outside Changning Palace.

A few days later, Ye Qiqi finally copied the Buddhist scriptures a hundred times with the help of Mo Hanqing.
She happily took the stack of copied Buddhist scriptures and ran to Changning Palace. She started shouting loudly from a distance outside the courtyard: "Queen Mother, Queen Mother!! Come out quickly!! I've finished copying!!"
The Queen Mother, who was dressing up in the room, couldn't help but frowned when she heard the noisy sound, and then asked the palace maid next to her: "What's going on??"
"Replying to the Queen Mother, it's the Emperor who is here." The maid smiled and said to the Queen Mother, "It seems to be shouting that she has finished copying the Buddhist scriptures a hundred times."
"Oh." The Queen Mother turned her head, stared at herself in the mirror for a while, then suddenly reached out and picked up a plum blossom hosta on the table, put it on her head and made a gesture, and then asked casually: "Do you think this hosta is suitable for me?" How’s your hair style??”
"The Queen Mother's hairstyle today looks good with anything." The palace maid replied towards the Queen Mother with a smile.
"Oh, that's it." The Queen Mother casually handed the jade hairpin into the hands of the palace maid, and then waited for her to carefully tie it for herself, then stretched out her hand to support her bun and said, "Let's go. Go out and have a look.”
"Yes." The palace maid responded in a low voice, then stepped forward, helped the queen mother to stand up, and headed outside.
In the hall outside, Ye Qiqi was sitting at the table minding her own business, picking up the snacks on the table and putting them into her mouth.
After seeing this scene, the Queen Mother couldn't help but sneered and said in an arrogant voice: "The Emperor is really rude when he comes to this palace. He didn't say hello and just took the food to his mouth."
"Huh?" Ye Qiqi turned his head. Perhaps he had become accustomed to her venomous tongue in the past few days, so he looked at her without taking it seriously, shook his head and said: "I said hello, when I was far outside the yard. , I’ve already said hello to you.”
“…”
The Queen Mother stared at her with a pair of beautiful pink eyes, and was speechless for a moment.
"Then, I copied the Buddhist scriptures a hundred times for you." Ye Qiqi said while eating, he put the Buddhist scriptures he had copied on the table, and then pushed it in the direction of the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother lowered her head slightly, looked at the thick stack of papers on the table, picked it up, flipped it over, and then put it back on the table.
"How's it going? I've done what I promised you. Now can you tell me something about my mother?" Ye Qiqi looked at her with a smile and asked in a clear voice.
"Let's make do." The Queen Mother looked at Ye Qiqi's writing with a look of disgust, then raised her head and asked expressionlessly: "What do you want to know about your mother?"
"Well, well..." Ye Qiqi rolled his eyes, and then put down the food in his hand.
