After parting with Liu Ruobai, Que Jue did not sleep all night.

The next morning, Que Jue walked into Lanyue Hall with heavy steps. He was familiar with Lanyue Hall in winter, and the scenery of Lanyue Hall in summer was beautiful with green trees, but he had no intention of appreciating it. After thinking about it all night, he had to admit that he was not as good as Liu Ruobai in terms of courage.

In the hall, Lan Rongyue was having breakfast. When the palace maid reported that Que Jue had arrived, she ordered, "Go and prepare a breakfast for Que Jue."

"yes."

After the palace maid received the order and left, Jiuer signaled the palace maids in the house to retreat. After everyone left, they asked, "Empress, it has been three days since Liu Ruobai met His Majesty... Que Jue is not trustworthy."

Jiuer evaluated a person in a positive tone in front of Lan Rongyue for the first time. Although she didn't know anything about the internal affairs of the witch clan, she never wanted Lan Rongyue to take risks because of this. Especially since Lan Rongyue is now pregnant, she had to consider it carefully.

Jiuer chose rationality without hesitation in the choice between rationality and sensibility. For her, going to the witch clan to be born may really reduce risks, but it also means danger.

"I will give you a task. No matter what method you use, I must make my husband believe that the danger of going to the witch clan to be born is far more than that of the palace. You may do it." Since Jiuer chose to grow up, how could she not give her a chance?

"Sister obeys the order."

Jiuer was melancholy in her heart. Yan Canglan was at ease in the face of the cunning old guys in the court. Her tricks were really not enough to see. But it might not be a chance. As long as she succeeded, she could better share Lan Rongyue's worries.

After breakfast, Lan Rongyue did not deliberately give Que Jue a warning, but immediately met Que Jue.

"Que Jue pays homage to the spirit girl."

Lan Rongyue looked at Que Jue. Did he choose to stand on the side of the witch clan after all? But his respectful attitude seemed to be announcing allegiance to her.

"I didn't like these false gifts, just sit down."

Que Jue finished his salute respectfully and sat down opposite Lan Rongyue.

"Que Jue, why did spiritual women from all generations go to the witch clan to wait for delivery to be smoother?" Lan Rongyue chose to ask directly without bending around the bush.

"There are places in the witch clan that are specially designed for women to give birth. There are some special tools. In addition, the valley is like spring, so it will naturally be smoother." Que Jue did not hide it. All he could do was to tell him bluntly and wait for Lan Rongyue to make a choice.

"Liu Yanmeng has joined the Witch Clan. Can she really replace me?" The news about the Witch Clan's inner sect is extremely secret. She can only learn a direction based on the latest news. The rest depends entirely on guessing.

Que Jue was shocked, "My task is to protect the spirit girl. I don't know much about it. There are three elders in the inner sect. I only know that Liu Yanmeng has joined one of them. To what extent, I don't know. It's just that the witch clan hides in the mountains and the inner sects, and both the inner sects and the outer sects have become the most respected. After you succeeded the spirit girl, you did not study like the inner sect and only went to the Book Valley. Therefore, you know very little about the inner sect. There are not many people in the inner sect. Only one of the three elders is a woman. If the spirit girl wants to return to the witch clan, this person is trustworthy."

After saying frankly, Lan Rongyue was a little surprised.

She thought that if she didn't plan to go back, Que Jue would not tell her about the inner sect of the Witch Clan, but she didn't expect Que Jue to be surprisingly frank. However, Lan Rongyue, the credible person mentioned by Que Jue, was not as optimistic as Que Jue, because the opponent behind her was not Liu Yanmeng, but Lou Haoran, a person who was good at attacking the heart.

"I don't plan to go back to the Witch Clan. If you want to protect the Witch Clan, you will go back to the Witch Clan. I am not a person who kills, but I cannot betray him. Que Jue, you understand." She is not the kind of person who would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let one person go. If Que Jue can handle the Witch Clan well, she wouldn't mind leaving the entire Witch Clan behind.

It's just that people's hearts are fickle.

Hope is hope, not fact, after all.

A trace of solemnity flashed between Que Jue's eyebrows. He was a spiritual female guard who was selected from many people in the inner sect. However, Lan Rongyue never seemed to need his guard, and she had never been used. In the inner sect, he was just a junior. Unless he could control the entire inner sect, he would inevitably be harmed by people who were good at stirring people's hearts.

Seeing that Que Jue's eyebrows became more and more serious, he was silent for a long time, "Although I have never entered the inner sect, I don't know what the inner sect yearns for, but I know that everyone has their own shortcomings, some are attracted by prosperity, some are fascinated by power, some are slaves of money, some want to protect... etc., all of them are shortcomings in the eyes of those who are interested. While you are secretly protecting me, you also observe a lot of observations of me. You should understand that although the witch clan regards spiritual women as respected, the spiritual women and the saints of the heavenly clan are only of the same origin, and they are no longer the same as the previous dynasty. This is the heart of the people."

Que Jue savored these words carefully. Lan Rongyue was telling him that if he wanted to protect the witch clan, he could only hold the witch clan in his hands and not betray Lan Rongyue. This condition seems simple, but it is actually difficult. The art of human hearts is not his strength, and taking advantage of human weaknesses is also done by a gentleman.

The air gradually became hot, and Que Jue still had never come back to his senses.

After being silent for about three quarters of an hour, Lan Rongyue stood up and headed into the hall.

"Empress, can he understand Que Jue? Otherwise, I'd like to send someone to help." Yan Qing didn't know much about Que Jue. Every time Que Jue appears, he is very arrogant. For the first time, he felt that Que Jue was so stupid and indecisive.

Lan Rongyue shook her head gently, "Unless I go to the witch clan in person, no one around me should interfere with it. Que Jue will understand it just by thinking about it."

She couldn't help but remember that when Liuxu was fascinated by obsession, she once said that she could destroy the world because before Yan Canglan met, the world was just a place where she could breathe in her eyes, and she had no nostalgia. Later, her mood changed, and she saw that the angle of affairs also changed. She became soft-hearted, kind, loving, and understood how to give. She also understood that it was better to teach it to fish than to teach it.

She could figure it out, and Que Jue would also figure it out. Even if she made a choice, she had to work hard for it.

Walking into the hall, a familiar figure was preparing juice for her. Lan Rongyue felt warm and said quite surprised, "Why did you have a morning court so early today?"

Yan Canglan poured the juice and sat down with Lan Rongyue's hand. The cold little hand was particularly comfortable in the hot summer. In winter, he wanted to warm her with his body. In summer, he wanted to rub the coolness that was lower than ordinary people on her body.

"Suddenly I feel that I haven't been with you for a long time." Once he was the emperor, the government was busy all over. I missed her for a second, but time could not flow back.

"From tomorrow, I will go to the Imperial Study Room to accompany you every afternoon."
