At this time, the guard at the side gate of the You Kingdom Palace noticed a rustling sound coming from the grass not far away.
One of them was about to go forward to check when he saw a figure flash and disappear.
“Don’t run!”
He was about to chase after him, but was tripped by two rolls of straw mats on the ground.
The guard got up cursing and kicked the straw mat hard.
However, when he opened one of the mats and saw the person inside, he turned pale with fear...
It turned out to be Manager Li inside!
So what about the other volume...
When he opened another roll of straw mat with trembling hands, he was so shocked that he fell to the ground. It was actually, Your Majesty!
He quickly called over his companions who were on duty and checked their breathing.
Fortunately, His Majesty and Chief Steward Li are still breathing.
So he quickly sent the two of them to the palace and summoned the imperial physician.
For a time, the You Kingdom's palace was extremely lively.
The news that Rong Jingyuan was injured and unconscious outside spread quickly.
However, the guards did not say that Rong Jingyuan was thrown in front of the door on a straw mat. Otherwise, when His Majesty woke up and heard this, he would probably lose his head.
When the Queen Mother heard the news, she showed no expression.
The maidservant beside her asked, "Empress Dowager, would you like to visit His Majesty in the palace?"
The Queen Mother snorted coldly: "Hmph, there are so many people who want to show off right now, why should I join in the fun?"
Mammy smiled awkwardly: "You are right."
Just as the Queen Mother said, Rong Jingyuan's door was already blocked by many concubines who came to visit him.
When everyone heard the news that His Majesty was injured, they all wanted to show their courtesy at this time.
Rong Jingyuan lay on his own dragon bed and slowly woke up after being treated with acupuncture by the imperial physician.
The first words he said when he woke up were: "Ziyi!"
This scared the imperial physician.
Rong Jingyuan was still a little drowsy at the moment because he was hit on the back of the neck.
When he saw the furnishings in the room, he realized that he had returned to the palace.
He covered his head and struggled to get up with the help of the servants.
"Your Majesty, many ladies are outside the palace seeking an audience."
Hearing these words, Rong Jingyuan's eyes suddenly turned cold.
The originally vague memory suddenly became clear.
"Is Mingfei outside?" he asked.
"Yes." The servant replied respectfully.
"Please ask her to come in."
"Yes." The young eunuch hurried over, but he felt that His Majesty's tone was not gentle at all, and instead sounded like he was about to bring an army to bear to accuse him...
Seeing someone coming out of His Majesty's bedroom, the ladies waiting outside all looked forward to it.
"Is Your Majesty awake?"
"How is your Majesty?"
"Can I go in and visit?"
Such sounds were heard continuously for a while.
The young eunuch said helplessly, "Your Majesty is awake now, but His Majesty has only summoned Consort Ming to come in. The other ladies please return."
When Ming Fei, who was guarding here, heard this, she immediately squeezed out two lines of tears.
His Majesty still has her in his heart. The first thing he does after waking up is to see her!
So she followed the young eunuch into the hall amid the envious gazes of the other women.
However, as soon as she came in, she felt that the atmosphere was a little off.
Whenever she came to see His Majesty, His Majesty would gently wave to her and let her go into his arms.
But today he remained silent.
At this moment, the entire bedroom was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop on the ground.
Ming Fei stood in front of the door and tentatively called out, "Your Majesty?"
However, she did not wait for Rong Jingyuan's gentle call.
"Bring her here to me!"
Even though Ming Fei was far away, she could still hear the rage hidden in the voice.
Two palace maids beside her immediately grabbed her shoulders, one on each side, and brought her in front of Rong Jingyuan.
Ming Fei was stunned by the sudden change in attitude.
Her lips were trembling and her face was completely bloodless and pale.
"Your Majesty, why do you treat me like this..."
She spoke in a tearful voice, looked up, and found that Rong Jingyuan's expression was colder than she had ever seen before.
She was secretly shocked. She only knew that His Majesty had left the palace today, but she didn't know where he went.
Could it be...
"You don't know what you did? Or do you think I'm a fool?"
Rong Jingyuan's tone at this moment was like a cold ice knife, stabbing Ming Fei's heart.
What did she do?
She thought about it over and over again, but could only think of how she had slandered the queen before.
Did His Majesty find Jiang Ziyi during his trip? Was Jiang Ziyi truly still alive? If so, why hadn't he brought her back to the palace? That meant he hadn't found her.
Thinking of this, Concubine Ming calmed down and said aggrievedly: "I really don't know, please tell me clearly, Your Majesty!"
Rong Jingyuan roared in a deep voice: "You slandered the Queen, and you dare to say you did nothing!"
This roar almost drove Ming Fei crazy.
But she thought that if His Majesty found Jiang Ziyi, he would not let her stay outside.
So she mustered up the courage to speak: "Your Majesty, every word I said is true! That day, the Empress came to me and told me exactly what she wanted to do. She wanted to give birth to a puppet for the Jiang family!"
Hearing that Ming Fei was still throwing dirty water on Jiang Ziyi, Rong Jingyuan saw clearly how vicious Ming Fei's heart was. He had actually thought that she was not competitive, weak and innocent. He had actually liked her so much, and even hurt Jiang Ziyi for such a person!
