So early the next morning, after breakfast, the three of them put on their cloaks, took their maids, prepared some things for praying, and went to the plum garden in the palace.

The Plum Garden is not very far from Yingquan Palace. It will take only a few moments to get there by passing through the apricot forest behind Yingquan Palace. Several people walked along the small path in the apricot forest, looking at the forest.

"I heard from the palace maids in my palace that this apricot blossom forest was very beautiful when it bloomed in spring. Now it is so bare, it looks quite desolate," said Yu Wan'er as she pushed aside a branch.

"In winter, it's inevitable that the trees will be bare and not very pretty. We can come back to see them in spring when they bloom. Anyway, it's just behind our palace, just a few steps away. I'll prepare some fruits and wine, how about we come here and get drunk and sleep under the flowers?" Ye Jinyun said, winking at the two of them.

When Lin Qingtang heard her suggestion, he immediately became very excited and wished that tomorrow would be spring.

"Okay, it's settled. You can't cheat. It won't count if you're not drunk by then."

How could she be absent from drinking? She dreamed of being a romantic heroine. When she thought of the apricot blossoms flying all over the sky and her drunken look under the flowers, she couldn't wait any longer.

The three of them discussed this and soon arrived at the plum garden.

They chose a secluded spot, and the three of them took the amulets from the maids, and tied one each to pray for the safety and health of their families outside the palace.

She picked another high branch and hung the amulet for praying for the emperor on it. After muttering a few words, she turned around and went back with the maids.

…

Mo Qiyuan had been cooped up in Chengqian Palace for a long time, and his injuries had long been healed. However, after discussing with the Queen Mother that day, the two decided to announce to the public that he was seriously ill, so that the person behind the assassination would be exposed.

Over the past two months, he had indeed obtained some clues. With time, he would be able to obtain evidence and catch the man.

But at this moment, he just wanted to go out for a walk. Although he claimed to be seriously ill, in fact, the daily memorials were moved into his bedroom by the empress dowager under the pretext of taking care of him.

After reading it himself, he imitated the empress dowager's handwriting to make annotations. The boring days every day were driving him crazy. Today, he had nothing to do, so he had to go out for a walk.

Chen Fuquan

Mo Qiyuan shouted softly.

"Hey, Your Majesty, do you have any instructions for me?"

"Prepare some ordinary clothes for me, I want to go out for a walk," Mo Qiyuan said expressionlessly.

Chen Fuquan was shocked when he heard this: "Your Majesty, this is impossible. What if you go out now and are seen by others? Wouldn't that ruin your plans with the Empress Dowager?"

Mo Qiyuan's face darkened slightly

"You're becoming more and more skilled at being a clerk. I asked you to find someone, but you couldn't find one. Now I want to go out for a walk, and you want to stop me. Are you tired of living?"

When Chen Fuquan heard this, he immediately knelt on the ground:

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I am incompetent and indeed failed to find the girl you mentioned. But it is true that I could not find her. The people I sent almost searched the entire ten-mile radius of the forest farm, but I truly couldn't find her. Your Majesty, could it be that you were poisoned and your eyes were blurry and you saw it wrongly?"

Mo Qiyuan's face was dark, and he secretly cursed in his heart that there was no way he was wrong. The warm blood flowing into his mouth and the faint fragrance that penetrated into his nose reminded him all the time that it was a living person.

But he still couldn't find her. He had asked Chen Fuquan to send people out to look for her several times, but there was still no news. She only appeared in his dreams occasionally. He almost started to doubt whether she was really a fairy from heaven, which was why he had been searching for her in vain.

He sighed slightly and said, "Get up. I don't blame you for this, but I must go out for a walk today. It's up to you."

Mo Qiyuan said this with a dark face, shook his sleeves, and turned to enter the inner hall.

Chen Fuquan had no choice but to put on a bitter face and find some ordinary clothes for him.

…

After Mo Qiyuan changed into his casual clothes, he took Chen Fuquan and slipped out of the secret room of Chengqian Palace.

The secret passage in Chengqian Palace is connected to the southeast corner of the Imperial Garden, and beyond it is the Plum Garden and the apricot forest behind Yingquan Palace. Whenever Mo Qiyuan wanted to have some quiet time, he would come here from the secret room to enjoy the scenery and relax.

After coming out of the secret passage, Mo Qiyuan took Chen Fuquan and entered the plum garden through a small path nearby. The plum blossoms in the garden were in full bloom, and the air was filled with refreshing fragrance.

Mo Qiyuan took a deep breath of the cool fragrance and felt as if he was back to the night when he was assassinated and rescued. Her otherworldly temperament was like the fragrance of plum blossoms, which made people unable to help but indulge in it.

"Hey, Your Majesty, look, there are amulets hanging on the branches of these plum trees," Chen Fuquan said, pointing to the plum trees in the corner in front.

When Mo Qiyuan heard him say this, he also walked forward and saw that there were some amulets hanging on the plum trees as he said.

He approached the tree in front, opened a peace amulet and read the words on it carefully.

It says 'Pray for the safety and health of my family'

Look at the one next to it, it has the same words written on it, but look at the last one, it is different.

It only says 'Pray for the safety of my brother'

Mo Qiyuan thought that the owner of this amulet should be his only relative, his eldest brother.

After looking at this tree, I went to look at the other three trees. These three trees were different from the one with three amulets hanging on it. Each plum tree had the best branches picked out and only had one amulet hanging on it.

Mo Qiyuan walked forward and opened the pages one by one to read the words on them. There was only the same sentence written on them, 'I pray that the emperor will recover soon and be safe and healthy.'

Mo Qiyuan looked at the three amulets and felt a little warm in his heart. He didn't expect that there would be someone in the palace who would sincerely pray for him.

As the emperor, although everyone in the world must submit to him, there are really few people in the palace who pray for him so sincerely. Moreover, judging from the handwriting, it comes from three different women, and the handwriting is consistent with the three amulets used to pray for their families.

They consider themselves as important as their family members and are truly kind-hearted.

Ye Jinyun and the other two had no idea that their act of praying for the emperor to get better soon so that they could live in peace would actually cause the emperor to express so much emotion.

If Mo Qiyuan knew the real reason behind this, he would at least be so angry that he would vomit blood.

After staying in the plum garden for a while, Mo Qiyuan took Chen Fuquan back to the southeast corner of the imperial garden along the path he came from, and then returned to Chengqian Palace through the secret passage.
