The tea on the imperial table has been cold for a long time, and the prince stood aside with extreme caution.

Recently, the emperor has been focusing on dealing with political affairs. Sometimes he is too busy to even take care of food. He also reviews memorials until very late at night. There is never any emotion on his face, and he frowns as if he has something on his mind.

"Your Majesty, it's time for you to take a rest!" Wang Gonggong kindly reminded that it's already lunch break. If you continue to be busy like this, even the emperor's body will not be able to bear it!

"I'm fine, you can go down!" Ye Jinmo said impatiently.

"emperor……"

"Go down!" Ye Jinmo said sternly. The prince didn't dare to stay for a long time, so he had to leave the Tai Chi Hall quietly.

Ye Jinmo pressed his forehead and felt a headache. He couldn't help but put down the memorial in his hand and held his forehead with both hands and pressed it gently.

What's wrong with me? Ever since I found out that she wanted to escape that night, my heart felt like there was a layer of lead stuck in my heart. I couldn't eat or sleep at night. I wanted to go to the Yuhua Palace many times, but I finally didn't dare to see him.

Su Qiyu's cold face.

It was just Cheng Chong that night, was she really so unwilling? Although, he was released and vented, and all the happiness he had never felt in love was returned to her. But,

Afterwards, he found himself trapped in tangles and hardships.

At first, she personally invited him, but later on, she started to resist him. Is this his fault? No, it was because in her heart, she could not accept being his woman. At least in her heart, she had not fully accepted him and could not

Agree with him.

What should he do to make her open her heart and become his woman willingly?

For several days, Ye Jinmo did not step into the Yuhua Palace again.

The scenery of the past has long since changed, and the sky has been dark these days, which seems to reflect Su Qiyu's mood at the moment.

"Princess, is it because the emperor didn't come to Yuhua Palace because what happened that night angered the emperor?" Mei Xiang asked cautiously.

Su Qiyu said nothing, sitting in the rocking chair and looking at the dark clouds in the sky, which darkly blocked the white clouds, just like her mood.

Lanzhu remained silent at the side, seeming to have something on his mind.

Su Qiyu noticed something strange about Lanzhu and asked, "Lanzhu, just tell me if you have anything to do!"

Lanzhu pursed her lips and said sadly: "Princess, I have been holding this matter in my heart for several days. Please help me clear up my doubts."

Su Qiyu became interested and asked again: "Just tell me, I will definitely help you."

Lanzhu knew everything and said it. "Princess, on my way to the imperial dining room the day before yesterday, I secretly overheard the sunset in Hanxiang Hall and Concubine Xiang whispering. The news that the princess left the palace does not seem to have come from Hanxiang Hall."

"What did they say?"

"Xiang Fei said that if a bird hadn't sent her a message, she wouldn't have been able to seize such a good opportunity to deal with the princess, but she was ruined by Jing Guiren, saying that she wanted to find an opportunity to teach Jing Guiren a lesson."

"Really?" Su Qiyu secretly laughed. Jing Guiren's good days have really come to an end, but she didn't expect Xiang Fei to be so intolerant. "By the way, what's wrong with what you said?"

"I heard them talking about birds, and I was afraid that the young eagle I passed on to General Shangguan would be intercepted by them, so I listened very carefully. What they said and the time plan were exactly the same as what I passed on to General Shangguan."

Su Qiyu also found it strange. It stands to reason that if the young eagle sending the message was not intercepted by Xiang Fei, then only those who knew the plan would send the message to Xiang Fei.

She couldn't help but look up at Lan Zhu and found that her face was livid and seemed a little unbelievable. Not only her, but Su Qiyu was also in disbelief.

"Does he really want me to stay in this palace?" Su Qiyu said sarcastically. Lan Zhu's face became even more ugly, and she already understood in her heart.

As expected of Shangguan Rui, only he would send his beloved woman to the enemy's bed!

"Princess!" Lan Zhu suddenly knelt down, feeling sad.

"What are you doing?" Su Qiyu quickly helped her up. "This matter is none of your business. You should do as I say."

Unexpectedly, Lanzhu refused to get up and cried out: "Princess, General Shangguan will never do anything to disgrace the princess. Princess, please do not misunderstand General Shangguan."

Su Qiyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that she was afraid that she would blame Shangguan Rui. Lanzhu had been taking care of her just like Mei Xiang, but Mei Xiang was simple-minded. Su Qiyu also trusted her extraordinarily. But towards Lanzhu, Su Qiyu couldn't tell how she felt. On the surface

She is loyal. In fact, she should have been in contact with Shangguan Rui. In other words, it was Shangguan Rui who arranged for someone to protect her by Su Qiyu's side.

It can be seen that she is the secret messenger between Shangguan Rui and Su Qiyu, and she obeys Shangguan Rui's words. She probably expected Shangguan Rui to leak the news about this matter, but she felt uneasy and was not willing to believe it. This girl

, through the gradual contact, he may have developed a liking for her, so he doesn’t want her to misunderstand Shangguan Rui!

"I'm very happy that you can tell me the truth!" Su Qiyu helped her up and said: "Lanzhu, you only have two choices now, either return to Shangguan Rui, or stay with me. After this incident

I believe you have also seen that he would rather I continue to suffer in the palace than take me out of the sea of ​​fire and would rather continue to use him. You should know that I have really given up on Shangguan Rui."

Lan Zhu felt extremely grateful. She didn't expect that Su Qiyu would say this. She probably didn't blame her anymore, so she no longer had any uneasiness in her heart. She burst into tears and said with a smile: "Princess, I am willing to follow you!"

"Then Shangguan Rui's side, it's best to cut it off cleanly from now on." Su Qiyu said sternly.

"Princess, don't worry, Lanzhu will definitely protect the princess in the future." Lanzhu made a promise, having determined a master in her heart, and she had already determined a goal for the future.

"Now that you have shown your loyalty, there is no need to hide your martial arts from me from now on."

Lanzhu was startled and said in shock: "Princess..."

"The person arranged by General Shangguan will not be that simple!" Su Qiyu replied confidently. She was just guessing. She didn't expect Lan Zhu to really know martial arts. Having a person who knows martial arts by her side would still be of great help to her!

"However, you'd better not show it, just like before!"

Lan Zhu nodded and said happily: "Princess, don't worry, I'm measured!"

Su Qiyu was in a good mood. With Lan Zhu's loyalty, she finally had an extra pair of wings in this palace.

"Princess, what are you going to do about the Emperor?" Although Lan Zhu disapproved of Su Qiyu becoming Ye Jinmo's favorite concubine, she could only accept it now that she was worried about her future.

Su Qiyu sighed. "What can I do? Now I can hide for one day..."

"A good person can hide for a day!"
