It is even more impossible for her to reveal her identity and make everyone keep silent about Xia Lingye in order to put on this drama.

Xia Lingye's throne came with great difficulty, so he was more cautious than any other emperor before.

This palace is full of his spies, and it is impossible for them to betray him.

"Your Majesty, that must be Yu Zhaoyi, right? I've long heard that Yu Zhaoyi is virtuous and well-mannered, and is deeply loved by Your Majesty. Now I see that she is indeed the case!"

Xia Lingye: “…”

Well... Mu Yunshan said that she had just returned, but she had a deep understanding of the affairs of the palace.

Not a single word was mentioned about Concubine Zhong Meihui who had made a mistake.

Even though Zhong Meihui had known her for a longer time.

Xia Lingye thought that it was Zhu Xianyue's appearance that gave him the opportunity to jump out of the cage and look back.

"Yue'er is a flower that speaks eloquently. I am lucky to have her. But Yunshan is still my queen, and this will not change."

Xia Lingye first kept his troops in place.

He wanted to see what secrets his queen was hiding.

"Your Majesty, I haven't been back to the palace for a long time. I found that every blade of grass and every tree here is no longer the same as when I left..."

"I am a little panicked and would like to stay with the emperor for a few days. Is that okay?"

"No. Yunshan, I am the emperor, and etiquette cannot be abandoned. If I let a woman live and eat with me, it will make the ministers unhappy. If this continues, it will definitely cause trouble."

"...Yunshan knows. Yunshan just mentioned it casually."

Yunshan's expression was stiff.

She knew that if she continued to stay here, she would not be able to control her emotions, so she quickly excused herself, saying that she was tired.

"What happened back then has left my already fragile body even more vulnerable... Now I don't even have the energy to speak a few words to the Emperor. I truly am useless."

She deliberately brought up what happened back then, which seemed to indicate that she was repaying a favor.

Xia Lingye is a man of great loyalty and righteousness, so upon hearing this, his attitude towards her will soften.

As long as Xia Lingye puts a filter on her, it is only a matter of time before she regains her foothold in the harem.

"I'll send someone to take you back to rest."

"I obey your command."

The person Xia Lingye sent was the senior eunuch beside him, which made Mu Yunshan feel relieved.

It seems that Xia Lingye has not become suspicious yet.

But she didn't know that after she left, Xia Lingye threw away the red pen.

He values ​​friendship and loyalty, but he is also a wise ruler.

He would not allow anyone to sneak into the palace under his nose.

If this continues, the Phoenix Dynasty will be in chaos.

…

Mu Yunshan returned to Kunning Palace.

As soon as he came back, he asked someone to change his clothes.

During the time she was away, Concubine Zhong Meihui was in charge of the six palaces, and now it has become Concubine Zhu Xianyue.

In short, there was no one she could trust.

She had to find her former confidants first.

…

In fact, Mu Yunshan was wrong.

Kunning Palace has confidants of Concubine Zhong Meihui, but no confidants of Zhu Xianyue.

When the young palace maid got the news, she hurried to report to Zhong Meihui.

In fact, the one-armed Zhong Meihui is no longer a big deal, and many of her former confidants ignore her.

However, the indentures of this little palace maid and her family outside the palace are all in the hands of Zhong Meihui's parents.

If she didn't work for Zhong Meihui, her whole family would be sold out.

Being a slave means being dependent on others.

The little palace maid didn't dare to hide anything and told everything she saw.

"After the Empress returned, she hurriedly sent someone to the laundry department to find a palace maid named Zijuan."

"We wanted to serve the Queen, but she wouldn't let us get close."
