Chapter 805
What kind of temper is that?
Madam Chen couldn't help but sigh: "I've heard that Consort Jing is known for her gentle and quiet nature. I never imagined that she was such a person when she was young."
Huo Zhao's eyes darted around, and he became curious about another matter: "What will happen to Father when Consort Jing enters the palace?"
“Your father never truly cared for her; he only did so out of consideration for your grandfather,” Zhong Jie said. “When Consort Jing entered the palace, your father naturally seized the opportunity to break off the engagement with her. After that, the two went their separate ways and never saw each other again.”
Not to mention Huo Zhao, even Zhong Jie didn't know what Consort Jing had been doing all these years of being well-behaved.
Having asked all the questions he wanted to ask, and having nothing else to do, Huo Zhao went to find Chen Qiang.
Even after she left, Zhong Jie remained in a bad mood.
Seeing this, Madam Chen said, "These are all things of the past. Now your child with Prince Huo is already so grown up, and there are no other women in Prince Huo's harem. There's nothing to worry about."
Zhong Jie shook her head: "I'm not worried, I just feel uncomfortable."
"With Zhaozhao here just now, there are some things I couldn't say. I don't care what happened between Consort Jing and Huo Yue back then, but now, Consort Jing has actually approached a junior like Zhaozhao. What is she up to!"
Madam Chen was also dissatisfied with this matter.
Now that Huo Yue and Zhong Jie are both in Luoyang, Consort Jing can simply talk to them if she has any issues. Huo Yue is not allowed to enter the palace, but Zhong Jie is not. However, it is indeed unreasonable for Consort Jing to go to Huo Zhao instead of Zhong Jie.
"I don't care if those two rekindle their old flame or anything, I'm just angry that she actually went after my child!"
Zhong Jie was clearly very angry, but Madam Chen didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only sit with her.
——
Soon, night fell.
Huo Yue returned home, but as soon as he entered the courtyard, he sensed that something was amiss.
It's too gloomy.
It felt like going back to the time when Huo Zhao had just been lost.
Huo Yue's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously quickened his pace.
Back in the bedroom, seeing that Zhong Jie was alright, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "You've been doing needlework all day, you must be tired. Let me give you a massage?"
"You stand there."
Zhong Jie raised her chin, and Huo Yue, who was usually the one who had the final say in public, obediently stood still.
"I'm asking you, after you came back, have you been in contact with Consort Jing?"
Huo Yue was taken aback when he first heard the name Consort Jing.
He paused for a moment before saying, "No."
Fearing that Zhong Jie wouldn't believe him, Huo Yue quickly said, "After I returned to Luoyang, I hardly ever went to the palace. Whenever I went to the palace, it was to see His Majesty. I didn't hide that from you!"
"So you didn't hide it from me and secretly went into the palace?"
Huo Yue's gaze flickered unconsciously in front of Zhong Jie.
Zhong Jie's heart sank.
That means it exists.
"Get out!" Zhong Jie raised her hand and threw whatever was next to her at him. "Get as far away as you can, I don't want to see you!"
Seeing her strong reaction, Huo Yue was at a loss for words, like a child who had done something wrong.
"...I only sneaked into the palace twice to drink with Brother Chen and His Majesty...Madam, is it really necessary to be so angry?"
