The empress took Ling Le back to the bedroom. When she washed, undressed and lay down, she suddenly sat up.
Ling Le, who was about to put out the candle and leave, was startled and looked at the Queen.
"Your Majesty, do you have anything else to tell me?"
The empress took the pillow and leaned against it. "If I remember correctly, the little princess of Tianqi also has the character 'Luo' in her name?"
Ling Le walked forward and stood still, then replied, "Your Majesty, are you suspicious?"
"Luo'er's is her childhood nickname, is it a coincidence?"
The queen clasped her hands on the quilt, a look of fatigue on her face.
She must have been overthinking it. How could a princess and concubine fall into Qing'er's hands so easily?
"Your Majesty, please go to bed early. It's getting late."
"Now that the news of Yao'er's cousin moving into the palace has spread, those hiding in the dark will surely become restless. Tomorrow, have someone monitor the whereabouts of the ministers, and also have someone monitor Qing'er."
Qing'er is simple-minded and she was the one who kidnapped the person. The remnants of those who framed Uncle Wang began to doubt her cousin's identity and would definitely start with Qing'er and get her and Luo'er out of the palace and get rid of them.
"Yes, I will do it tomorrow morning."
Ling Le extinguished the other candles, leaving only one candlestick closer to the queen in the bright bedroom. The flame flickered in the bedroom when it was extinguished in an instant.
The queen sighed imperceptibly and called out the secret guards.
"Go check Qing'er's whereabouts recently."
…
After washing up, Yu Yiluo sat on the bed in a daze.
[No, I have to clean up Feng Qingqing's mess first.]
If we don't clean up her mess, the Queen will soon know our identities.
[Once the Queen knows our identities, we will be seen as having ulterior motives, and it will be difficult to drag Feng Qingqing into this.]
[I hope Minister Jiang knows that my mother and I live in the palace and goes to find Feng Qingqing as soon as possible. This way, I can see what Feng Qingqing decides.]
Empress Xian listened to Yu Yiluo's thoughts and walked to her side.
"Luo'er, go to sleep. We can talk about it tomorrow."
Even though I have something on my mind, I still can't resist the sleepiness.
Yu Yiluo slept until dawn.
After breakfast, the female official sent by the Queen to measure their sizes came over with a few people.
After measuring the two people's sizes, Yu Yiluo and Concubine Xian left the bedroom and strolled around the palace.
When he walked to the Imperial Garden, he happened to meet the commander of the Imperial Guards who came with a group of Imperial Guards.
The woman had her hair tied in a high ponytail and a sword hanging from her waist. When she met the two men, she signaled the people behind her to stop and bowed.
"Greetings to the two distinguished guests."
As he bowed, his gaze moved downward, and the Imperial Guard Commander Huang Feiyu's eyes fixed on the jade pendant on Yu Yiluo's waist.
She took a look and then looked away without leaving a trace.
Yu Yiluo noticed her movements and raised her eyebrows slightly.
[When Li Yunhe gave me this jade pendant, he said he would need it. Could it be now?]
"Your Excellency, there is no need to be so polite."
Empress Xian smiled gently and took Yu Yiluo away from them and walked towards the pavilion nearby.
Huang Feiyu raised his hand to send away the royal guards behind him, and walked towards the pavilion.
She didn't beat around the bush, but asked directly, "Do you two have any instructions?"
Yu Yiluo heard the voice and turned to look at her.
"Do you recognize the jade pendant I'm wearing?"
"I recognize it," she said, moving her gaze to the jade pendant. "It must not belong to you, but since that person gave it to you, he must have thought you would find it useful."
She looked away and spoke in a serious tone.
"Don't doubt it, my dear guest. I was injured and nearly lost my life that year. Fortunately, the owner of the jade pendant came to my aid. I don't like to owe others, so I promised to repay him when I have the chance."
【So that's how it is.】
Yu Yiluo smiled, revealing a few small baby teeth.
"Just help me cover up the princess's whereabouts recently."
Seeing Huang Feiyu didn't say anything, Concubine Xian chuckled and said, "Is this difficult? Don't worry, this matter will not threaten the Empress."
Huang Feiyu was skeptical and did not agree immediately.
"I don't know you two distinguished guests. To be honest, I don't believe you."
"Just tell me whether you are willing or not. It doesn't matter if you are not willing or not."
Yu Yiluo just said it casually, wanting to see how useful the jade pendant given by Li Yunhe was. In fact, it didn't have to be this person.
"Are you sure this action won't harm the Queen or innocent people?"
She asked, pursing her lips.
"My lord, you are suspicious and won't believe anything we say. Please go away."
Yu Yiluo walked to the edge of the pavilion and scattered fish food into the fish pond.
Huang Feiyu saw that the two of them didn't seem to need her, so he hesitated and said, "That's easy. Why are you two..."
Before he could finish his question, Empress Xian interrupted him.
"Just do what you've been told, sir. Don't ask any more questions."
Realizing that he had been talking too much, Huang Feiyu shut up, bowed and left.
After the matter was handed over, Yu Yiluo and Concubine Xian returned to the bedroom. She summoned a bird, gave it a few instructions, and then released it.
Huang Feiyu agreed, but Yu Yiluo would not be so stupid as to trust her completely.
…
With Huang Feiyu's cover, the people sent by the Queen to investigate obtained information that the princess was indeed not at home some time ago.
Instead, they went to travel and the man was abducted by her on the way.
The Queen waved her hand to let everyone leave and frowned.
"Summon the Prime Minister to the Imperial Study."
The Prime Minister was quickly led in by Ling Le, and she bowed respectfully.
"I wonder why the Emperor summoned me here?"
"Prime Minister, please sit down."
The queen raised her hand and motioned the prime minister to sit aside.
The Prime Minister thanked her and sat aside, but she vaguely guessed the Queen's intention in summoning her.
"I want you to be the princess's teacher, Prime Minister. Are you still going to refuse me this time?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the prime minister hurriedly stood up and knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, please revoke your order."
Let her be the princess's teacher? She still wants to live a few more years and doesn't want to be angered to death.
The princess is completely hopeless. She has no ambition, is fond of men, and kills innocent people indiscriminately.
She didn't want to waste her time and energy educating a good-for-nothing person.
"Master Prime Minister, now you don't even obey my orders?"
The queen's face suddenly darkened, and she stared coldly at the prime minister kneeling on the ground.
She had mentioned this matter several times before, but each time the Prime Minister refused on the grounds that he was too busy.
She thought that after so many times, the Prime Minister had no more excuses and would eventually agree.
I didn't expect that she would refuse directly without giving any reasons.
Qing'er's personality has already been formed, and she doesn't expect Qing'er to suddenly become wise and enlightened. She just wants the Prime Minister to be her teacher so that she won't be isolated and helpless in the future.
But the Prime Minister resolutely refused such a request.
"I am terrified," the Prime Minister said, touching his forehead to the ground, neither servile nor arrogant. "Even if I became the Crown Princess's teacher, I might not be able to teach her well. Your Majesty, instead of asking me to teach her, why not give me a child with a connection to the royal family? I will definitely not refuse."
The princess is already disabled and no matter how hard she tries, she can't straighten herself up. I don't know what the empress is obsessed with.
He is obviously a very smart person, but he becomes irrational when he encounters the princess.
The Queen's face turned blue with anger.
