About a quarter of an hour later, Emperor Jiawen came out, holding a rectangular wooden box in his hand.
He handed the thing to Ye Xiyue:
"The map is right here, you can take a look."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Ye Xiyue took the wooden box and opened it with a "click". She felt relieved when she saw that there was indeed a scroll inside that was the same as the previous two.
It seems that Emperor Jiawen did not know the secret in this map, otherwise he would not have returned the things to her so easily.
This process was much simpler than she had expected.
The two didn't stay too long and quickly said goodbye and left.
Emperor Jiawen looked at the two figures gradually disappearing and secretly rejoiced.
Today, Ye Xiyue is no longer the abandoned daughter of the Ye family who was bullied by others, and the man beside her has a noble appearance, extraordinary temperament, and does not look simple.
It’s better not to mess with such people!
Just as he was thinking about it, a figure suddenly hurried in from outside.
"His Majesty!"
The visitor is none other than Queen Shen Yurong.
She walked in a hurry and looked nervous. Because she was in such a hurry, there were beads of sweat on her forehead.
Emperor Jiawen's face darkened: "What is the queen doing here suddenly?"
Because of Xiao Yushan's incident, there was already a rift between him and Shen Yurong, and he would not go to her palace for ten and a half days.
Shen Yurong herself also knew that Emperor Jiawen had abandoned her. She spent most of her time in her palace and rarely showed up.
It is really rare to come here directly like today.
"Your Majesty, I, I heard that Ye Xiyue entered the palace just now?"
Shen Yurong asked anxiously.
Emperor Jiawen was not surprised that she knew about it, so he didn't bother to pay attention. He just responded, turned around and left.
Shen Yurong took another step forward:
"Your Majesty, she, why did she come into the palace at this time?"
Emperor Jiawen frowned: "The queen doesn't need to worry about these things."
It seemed that he didn't intend to tell her.
Shen Yurong bit her lip: "Yes, is it because of Yushan or Mingyin..."
"Of course not."
Emperor Jiawen felt impatient when he saw her like this.
"She just came to get the map that her mother left in the palace."
Shen Yurong's expression suddenly changed and she clenched her hands unconsciously.
As expected...as expected!
When she heard the news, she felt something was wrong, so she came over without stopping——
"Then she is now——"
She asked, looking around.
"I have asked her to take away the map."
Emperor Jiawen's words immediately made Shen Yurong's face turn pale.
Already taken away?!
"Your Majesty! Well, that is the map of the Warcraft Mountains. How could you hand it over to her so easily?"
Now it was Emperor Jiawen's turn to be surprised.
He looked Shen Yurong up and down and frowned even more tightly:
"Of course I know, but so what? Even with that map, the depths of the Warcraft Mountains are extremely dangerous. Several previous attempts to penetrate deep have failed. There is no use keeping that thing. Just give it to her. What's more, that
It’s originally her mother’s thing.”
Now it has just been returned to its original owner.
"Can--"
Shen Yurong wanted to say something more, but when she met Emperor Jiawen's scrutinizing eyes, she realized that she had lost her composure. She quickly lowered her head, bit her lip and said:
"Concubine... I just feel a little sudden... After so many years, why does she suddenly want to take things back..."
Emperor Jiawen ran out of patience and sneered:
"Nowadays, it's not what it used to be. Why would it be strange for her to come and ask for her mother's things?"
