He didn't know that he had been before the emperor.
Yes, no matter how careful she was, even if she figured out the shift change times, it was a daring thing for an ordinary person without any military force to sneak into the imperial court without leaving a trace.
"We are friends."
That should be it...
Yu Zhiqing was stunned for a moment, then continued, "She sent a palace maid to let me know she was safe a few days ago, but she hasn't been heard from since."
"Even the maids in Chuxiu Palace didn't know where she was. I was worried about her, so I dared to ask the palace maids I knew for information... Only then did I know that she was now in the emperor's presence..."
While Yu Zhiqing was talking, she would steal glances at the other person's expression from time to time.
Although Fu Yao's face turned cold and he looked a little impatient, he still didn't interrupt her.
It became clear, most likely it was due to Jiang Jiang's influence.
In her previous life, she was able to live by the side of this tyrant for so many years, which must have been due to her real ability to read people's expressions.
She had an intuition in her heart that told her what the other party really wanted to hear.
So she thought about it for a while, and said a few interesting things about Jiang Jiang and Chu Xiu Palace, and then she saw that the other party's expression improved a little.
She hurriedly said, "Anyway, I came here just to check on my friend's safety... I don't intend to do anything to her."
Her attitude was respectful and no one could find fault with her.
But Fu Yao could sense that she was vaguely disliked by him.
But he didn't mind at all. It was just a necessary part of being in a high position, and he was used to being disliked.
"I know you have no ill intentions."
"Otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to set foot in the Yangxin Palace today."
Yu Zhiqing: “…” Damn it, she thought she had a talent for martial arts, but it turned out she was happy for nothing.
But think about it, if the emperor really allowed an ordinary person like her to come and go freely, then the country would have changed dynasties.
But even though she felt like she had eaten shit and her face was wrinkled, Yu Zhiqing still had to bite the bullet and say, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your generosity in giving me the opportunity to meet Jiang Jiang."
Fu Yao said "hmm" coldly, and then thought of Jiang Jiang's special treatment of the woman in front of him, and a mixture of sourness and restlessness surged in his heart.
Finally made a decision:
"Now that you're here, have lunch with me and Jiang Jiang."
Seeing is believing, so that she wouldn't always think that Jiang Jiang and he had been treated harshly and were trying to sow discord.
I wanted to take the opportunity to find an excuse to sneak away. Yu Zhiqing: "...Yes." But can she really eat this?
She was afraid that she would get so nervous that she would vomit if she opened her mouth.
===
When Yu Zhiqing first approached the emperor to gather information, the secret guards noticed her.
Fu Yao may not remember the people around him clearly, but he remembers Jiang Jiang's relatives and friends clearly.
She knew that this person was the one she had sent to report her safety that rainy night.
He even tossed and turned late that night because of this special treatment.
Fortunately, this thorn in the eye and thorn in the flesh never appeared again. After that, Jiang Jiang did not have that kind of special feelings for her. Only then did Fu Yao slowly let go of the matter.
Who knew she would show up again?
But he might also be a naturally despicable and selfish species. When he proved his love for Queen Mother Jiang Jiang before her, Fu Yao felt his heart beating violently like never before.
It was the thrill of extreme and dark emotions being recognized and responded to.
And just now——
He chose to let this woman go to see Jiang Jiang, wanting to hear these heart-wrenching words of protection from her mouth once again.
The despicable monsters in the sewers occasionally touched the corner of the goddess's clothes and received a little favor, and then they greedily and endlessly asked for more favor.
He even fantasized that she belonged to him alone.
"Jiang Jiang." He called softly, watching the woman by the window turn her head. There was surprise in her eyes at first, and then turned into astonishment when she saw Yu Zhiqing behind him.
And one of these two people is a person who has been reborn in a lifetime, and the other is an emperor who never shows his emotions. It is hard to tell that just half a minute ago, the person behind was pinching the person in front by the neck.
"Sister Yu? What are you doing..." Jiang Jiang walked over quickly and secretly gave Yu Zhiqing a confused look, but got no response from the other party. However, when she was three steps away, Fu Yao grabbed her waist.
The emperor's palm was warm and powerful, carrying an irresistible meaning.
He lowered his head and whispered in her ear, his voice just loud enough for Yu Zhiqing to hear: "It was a coincidence that we met on the road. It was also a coincidence that she said she was your friend. I thought of bringing her to see you and have lunch with your friend."
Yu Zhiqing watched Fu Yao's aggressive movements and gritted her teeth. This tyrant must be doing this on purpose! But she still saluted respectfully: "Sister Jiang, how are you?"
Jiang Jiang: “…”
According to Yu Zhiqing's personality, she would not have had time to hide from Yao, so how could she run into him suddenly?
At this moment, she realized that the other party was probably caught on his way to school.
Jiang Jiang was held so tightly by Fu Yao that she couldn't move. She could only smile helplessly and accompany them in performing this well-known play: "Sister Yu, please stand up quickly."
She quietly pinched Fu Yao's arm, asking him to be more restrained in front of outsiders, "...Your Majesty! It's time to eat."
Lunch was served on a round rosewood table in a side hall. Fu Yao took his proper seat, with Jiang Jiang pressed to his side, while Yu Zhiqing sat opposite him, feeling quite uncomfortable.
Especially when she saw that the tyrant actually dismissed the palace servants and personally picked up food for Jiang Jiang.
For a moment, Yu Zhiqing almost despaired and thought that she was either crazy or mentally ill.
However, compared to discovering that someone like Fu Yao also has a warm side, Yu Zhiqing even thinks it is easier for her to accept that she is crazy.
The food tastes like dog food when I put it in my mouth. (Chew chew chew) How come it tastes a bit good?
