"I heard that the Crown Prince went to the Imperial Study. I didn't expect him to come back so soon."
Li Yunhe put the book in his hand on the table.
"Brother Yunhe will have to wait a little longer," the prince took out the gold pendant in his hand, "I forgot to bring something for Luo'er, so I came back to get it."
"Little Princess likes this?"
Seeing Li Yunhe's surprised expression, the prince chuckled, "You can't figure it out either, right? Luo'er seems to like gold very much. To be more precise, she likes anything valuable."
Thinking about how she looked like she was in heaven, if it weren't for the fact that the aura she exuded was indeed that of her master, Li Yunhe would have thought he had recognized the wrong person.
But maybe it's because I was too out of touch with the world before, so now everything seems strange to me.
"Your Highness, please go down. I will wait for you here."
In fact, Li Yunhe also wanted to go together, but he seemed to have nothing to report to the emperor.
The prince nodded, turned around, left the side hall and returned to the imperial study.
When Yu Yiluo saw the prince come in, she opened her arms as if wanting a hug.
"Luo'er wants my brother to hold her?"
The prince took her, raised his hand to rub her hair which had grown a lot longer, took out the gold pendant and handed it to her.
"This is given by General Jin. If Luo'er likes it, my brother will have someone make you a few."
[How many? The Crown Prince is indeed arrogant.]
Yu Yiluo looked at the gold pendant in her hand. The pendant was a little rabbit, which was exactly her zodiac sign.
[Why didn't my uncle give it to me personally? If he did, I would definitely give him a kiss.]
emperor:"……"
He gave so many valuable things but still didn't get a kiss from Luo'er.
"Since Luo'er likes it, I'll find someone to beat it for you."
Yu Yiluo kissed the prince on the cheek.
[My brother, the Crown Prince, truly understands me. I must give you a big kiss.]
The emperor looked at the prince with a dark face and ordered him to leave. "Don't you have something else to do?"
The prince remembered Li Yunhe who was still waiting for him, so he carried Yu Yiluo to the emperor and said, "Your son will take his leave first."
[Brother Crown Prince, don't forget to make me a gold pendant.]
"Little money-grubber."
The emperor raised his hand and pinched Yu Yiluo's face, "Do I need you for food and clothing?"
【Isn't this just in case? 】
【You will feel safe only if you have your own little safe. 】
"Your Majesty," Eunuch Cao returned from delivering the Emperor's instructions to the Beijing Defense Camp. "I have already completed what you instructed."
"Did those people resist?"
Eunuch Cao shook his head. "The Emperor has spared their lives and allowed them to go to the Northern Frontier, which is a great grace."
"Go prepare the imperial carriage and go to the Heyuan Palace to see Concubine Shu."
…
Concubine Shu was feeling depressed, and the hot weather made her feel extremely annoyed.
The emperor was so aware of her actions that the secret guards around him were useless.
Could it be that the emperor also knew that the secret guards had gone to look for Luo Ji before?
While he was thinking, a little palace maid walked in.
"My Queen, the Emperor is here to see you."
As soon as he finished speaking, the emperor came in holding Yu Yiluo. Looking at the gloomy Concubine Shu, he asked worriedly, "Aunt, are you feeling unwell?"
[Haha, this hurts. How can I be happy if my plan goes down the drain?]
"It's nothing, it's just that the weather is getting hotter."
The emperor smiled and sat down. "That's good. It's hot, so ask the servants to get some ice."
The two chatted for a while, and Concubine Shu said softly, "When I returned to the palace, I heard that the people from the Beijing Defense Camp were causing trouble. Is everything okay?"
"After today, there will be no more Beijing Defense Battalion. Aunt, don't worry. Everything has been taken care of."
The emperor paused here and said, "I heard that Xu Xiaoxiao also went to Baiyun Temple."
Concubine Shu sighed, "We are destined to meet. We talked together in Baiyun Temple. I didn't expect her to be so confused. Fortunately, Your Majesty will not pursue the matter."
Concubine Shu did not believe the rumors outside at all. She wanted to test the emperor and verify whether it was really the emperor who was in control of all this as she thought.
【Oh, testing the tyrant.】
"I want to test Lord Yu Shi and Mu Chen."
Concubine Shu pretended to be surprised and followed the emperor's words, "I said that the child was a good one, but I misunderstood her."
After chatting for a while, Concubine Shu couldn't get anything out of the emperor, so she stopped trying.
There is no one in the world who can predict the future. I think the emperor guessed what she wanted to do through her actions in Baiyun Temple.
"Aunt, have a good rest."
The emperor got up and left, and Concubine Shu sent Lu'er away and called out Xiao Shize.
"My Lady."
Concubine Shu narrowed her eyes and looked at Xiao Shize lying on the ground.
"How did you manage to be a secret guard? You were followed by the Emperor's men without even noticing."
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. The secret guards around the Emperor are very capable, so I was careless in my defense."
Xiao Shize knelt on the ground, unable to understand when the emperor had asked someone to follow him.
"We don't know how much the emperor knows now. We are in a passive position."
Concubine Shu rubbed her brows and said, "Don't make any moves recently. The Beijing Defense Camp is an example."
"Yes," Xiao Shize said, and after a moment's hesitation, he continued, "Maybe the emperor already knew about it when I went to find Luo Ji. If so, then we can no longer use Luo Ji."
Otherwise, it would be equivalent to telling the emperor all the plans.
"Luo Ji," Concubine Shu paused while rubbing her brows. She was silent for a moment, "I had actually forgotten about him. He's still useful, so why not use him?"
Not only should it be used, but it should also be used at critical points.
After letting Xiao Shize leave, Concubine Shu finally had the chance to read the note handed to her by Prince Duan.
There were people from the Ministry of Justice watching over her in Baiyun Temple, so she never took it out.
