Chapter 270 Extra: Audition



Spring, the sixth year of Chenghe.

Inside the East Palace courtyard.

Ye Wanhe looked at the East Palace courtyard, which she had not entered for six years, and felt filled with memories. In her more than thirty years of life, she had spent a full ten years here.

The reason I stepped into the Eastern Palace today was because Zhao Yu was going to move in.

Although Ye Wanhe felt that Yu'er was not yet nine years old and it was too early for him to move into the Eastern Palace, Yu'er felt that he had grown up and could live in the Eastern Palace.

Zhao Yun also felt that Yu'er should move to the Eastern Palace, so Ye Wanhe came to visit Yu'er today to check on the affairs in the Eastern Palace.

There are so many good and bad memories here...

Now that she has brought her children to the Eastern Palace, Ye Wanhe is filled with emotion.

Ye Wanhe entered the bedroom. The furniture inside was brand new, but the nanmu pillars carved with dragon patterns were still the same as before.

"Mother, I really like this house. I want to live in the East Palace with my brother."

Little Princess Chang'an raised her eyes and looked at Ye Wanhe.

Ye Wanhe smiled gently and said, "An An doesn't want to live with your mother in Fengyi Palace anymore?"

Princess Chang'an raised her eyes and said, "I can live with my mother in Fengyi Palace for the first half of the month, and with my brother in the East Palace for the second half of the month."

Ye Wanhe patted her daughter's head lovingly and said, "Okay."

When Ye Wanhe was selecting palace maids for Zhao Yu, she recalled why the Palace Lady had such a headache when Queen Wei asked her to select palace maids to go to the Eastern Palace that year.

Now Ye Wanhe has many concerns when selecting palace maids for Zhao Yu.

Although she herself rose from a palace maid to a princess consort, she felt that she was very open-minded and had never had the intention of currying favor with the rich and powerful.

Therefore, when she was selecting young palace maids for Yu'er this time, she mostly looked for those with clean family backgrounds, both parents alive, and who were honest and well-behaved.

Ye Wanhe gave instructions to the palace maids serving in the East Palace before reluctantly looking at Yu'er, who was still a child in front of her.

Yu'er raised her eyes to look at Ye Wanhe and said, "Mother, don't worry, I will take good care of myself."

Ye Wanhe touched Yu'er's head and said to her little daughter, "An'an, we should go back."

Princess Chang'an held her brother's hand and said, "Mother, I want to play with you for a while longer."

Ye Wanhe smiled and said, "Then the Queen Mother will go back first. You can come back after you have had fun."

The little Princess Chang'an blinked her sparkling phoenix eyes and nodded slightly.

As soon as Ye Wanhe stepped into Fengyi Palace, she heard a little palace maid begging for mercy.

"Empress, save me, save me! His Majesty is going to give me fifty lashes."

"Your Majesty, please spare my life. I will never dare to do that again."

"Empress..."

Ye Wanhe saw that the servant girl who was dragged out by the palace servants was the new tea-serving maid by her side. Ye Wanhe saw that she was well-behaved and beautiful, and thought that being a tea-serving maid in Fengyi Palace would not be a bad idea.

Ye Wanhe hurried into the hall, but did not see Zhao Yun. She saw Zhao Yun in the bedroom. He was changing into a clean dragon robe, and the black silk dragon robe was stained with tea.

"You are now finding it increasingly difficult to control your subordinates." Zhao Yun said coldly.

Seeing Zhao Yun's anger, Ye Wanhe simply went over to help him put on his clothes. She smiled softly and said, "That palace maid is only just coming of age, so it's inevitable that she's a little clumsy. As the monarch of Dasheng, why bother to argue with her?"

Zhao Yun held Ye Wanhe's hand and said with a little annoyance, "How can she be just clumsy?"

Ye Wanhe said, "Didn't she just spill tea on you while serving it? It was her fault. Would she survive fifty lashes? You don't want to be recorded in history books as a tyrant."

Zhao Yun said coldly, "Do you really not understand or do you just not care about me?"

Ye Wanhe said, "I will definitely discipline the palace maids in the future and won't let them act so recklessly again."

Zhao Yun said, "That maid's fault wasn't just a simple failure to hold the tea properly; she was deliberately trying to seduce me. You were so generous that you even pleaded for her."

Ye Wanhe was surprised and said, "That palace maid is only fifteen years old. If our first child were still alive, he would be almost the same age as her."

Ye Wanhe thought that the palace maid's parents were probably about the same age as her and Zhao Yun, and they never thought that the little palace maid would have such thoughts.

Perhaps it was because she became the queen from a palace maid. In the first two years after Zhao Yun ascended the throne, there were many palace maids who had ulterior motives. Zhao Yun punished a few of them and drove them out of the palace, and they remained quiet for several years.

Ye Wanhe raised her eyes to look at Zhao Yun. Although he was old enough to be a little girl's father, Zhao Yun, who was in his early thirties, was really becoming more mature and handsome. What's more, he was the emperor, and he could indeed make a fifteen-year-old palace maid throw herself into his arms voluntarily.

Zhao Yun looked at Ye Wanhe coldly and said, "You've been focusing on Yu'er these past few days. How can you even think of me?"

"How can I feel at ease if Yu'er goes to the East Palace?"

Seeing that Zhao Yun's eyes were getting colder, Ye Wanhe just walked aside, checked the accounts, and wondered if there was anything missing in the East Palace.

Zhao Yun snorted lightly, flicked his sleeves and left Fengyi Palace.

No one came to Fengyi Palace until late at night.

"My lady, it's late at night, it's midnight, you should go to bed."

Ye Wanhe put down the account book in her hand and said, "It's midnight? Where's His Majesty? Why hasn't he come back yet so late?"

"Your Majesty has already rested in the Taiji Palace."

Ye Wanhe listened to the palace maid's report and said, "Perhaps the state affairs are busy."

Ye Wanhe has been busy visiting Yu'er in the East Palace these days. Zhao Yun has not come to Fengyi Palace for four or five days, so Ye Wanhe took her little daughter to sleep together.
