Chapter 688: National Destiny

Mrs. Yu Enbo begged for mercy, but her face still hinted that Concubine Lang was making a big deal out of nothing.

Not to mention that Si Linglong already had some guesses about Yuan Zun's affairs and did not believe what Madam Yu Enbo said, even because of the attitude of the He family, she did not intend to let it go easily.

So he didn't respond to Madam Yu Enbo's words at all, and just said,

"The Imperial Master was summoned by the Emperor himself for the sake of the fate of the country. The Baohua Palace was specially prepared for the Imperial Master. Normally, palace people are not allowed to approach it casually. No matter what your intention is to let this child pass through, it concerns the fate of the country, and this palace cannot be ignored."

Si Linglong stopped talking and said to Shu Hong, "Go and ask the Emperor and Uncle Yu En to come over."

When Mrs. Yu Enbo heard her words, her face turned pale.

Si Linglong ignored her and looked at the young man who was crying below again. She just asked the palace maid to take the man downstairs and clean him up before bringing him back.

Helian Yue originally asked Futai to keep an eye on the affairs in the side hall. When Shuhong came to ask for help, he naturally brought Yu Enbo with him.

Yu Enbo had only heard from the palace maids that it was the nephew brought in by the madam who caused the commotion, and that he was embarrassed to see someone crying and wailing in such a situation. However, when he arrived at the side hall and heard what had happened, his face suddenly turned ugly and he knelt down in front of Helian Yue.

You have to kneel down.

He was snooping into the palace, and it was a matter concerning the fate of the country, so how could he not kneel?

Now he not only wanted to kneel down, he also wanted to slap Madam Yu Enbo in the face to wake her up.

The two have been childless since their marriage, and he knew how much his wife doted on her nephew from her natal family. When she even wanted to bring this nephew to the palace banquet on New Year's Eve, he still agreed even though he felt it was against the rules.

But she never expected that she was so bold as to let this young boy snoop around the palace at will!

The place he was spying on was the Baohua Palace where the Imperial Preceptor, who was entrusted with important responsibilities by the Emperor, was located.

It was mentioned before that Baohua Hall was the location of Qintianjian in the previous dynasty. Although Qintianjian has moved to a new location, the things in Baohua Hall, including the star array, are still there, and ordinary palace people are not allowed to approach them casually.

Yu Enbo was not very prominent among the royal family, and he also took the last seat at the palace banquet on New Year's Eve today. But even so, he had never thought of using this method to "catch the emperor's eye."

Thinking of this, Yu Enbo could not help but glare hatefully at his wife, who was kneeling beside him.

When the latter met his uncle's gaze, his body shuddered violently and his heart turned cold.

The reason why Si Linglong asked someone to invite Helian Yue and Yu Enbo over was because this matter involved the Imperial Master.

Not to mention her friendship with Yuan Zun, but on the surface he is the new imperial teacher of Dayuan. As an imperial teacher, he is involved in state affairs. She can intervene if the children fight at the palace banquet, but this matter can only be handled by A Yue.

Helian Yue naturally understood what she meant, and he frowned and scolded Yu Enbo below.

What about lax discipline and ignoring palace rules?

Every word he said was insulting Yu Enbo, but in fact he was talking about Yu Enbo's wife.

But he was the emperor, so it was impossible for him to reprimand a clan woman in person.

Even if there is a need for training, it should be done by the Queen Mother.

After Helian Yue finished scolding Yu Enbo, he also reprimanded the He family and bluntly said, "The He family does not know how to educate their daughter and is not worthy of the position of the Qintian Supervisor."

These words almost made Mrs. Yu Enbo faint on the spot.

As for He Changsun, who was punished for trespassing into the Baohua Palace, it was good enough that he was not reprimanded as well. He even wanted to cause trouble for the imperial teacher, which was impossible.

The New Year's Eve palace banquet had not yet completely ended, but Yu Enbo, his wife Yu Enbo and He Changsun left the palace in shame.

They were too embarrassed to stay any longer.

After everyone left, Si Linglong's straight back suddenly slumped down. She was no longer as calm and dignified as before when facing Madam Yu Enbo. She even had a childish smugness on her face. She turned around and asked Shu Hong,

"Was I majestic just now? Did I look like a royal concubine?"

Shu Hong smiled and stole a glance at the emperor's face, who nodded in approval.

"Your Highness is the Imperial Concubine, so you are naturally majestic."

Helian Yue listened to this and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It turned out that they were all pretending before.

After receiving Shu Hong's compliment, Si Linglong turned around and asked Helian Yue,

"Have you known for a long time that Yuan Zun is a member of the He family?"

After Helian Yue came over, when Shu Hong told her what happened, she noticed that A Yue was not surprised at all that Yuan Zun's surname was not Yuan. It was obvious that he had known about it for a long time.

When Helian Yue heard her ask, he didn't hide it and just said, "I did find out some things before, but I only roughly confirmed them. Since Yuan Zun didn't mention it, I can't say more."

After all, from what he had people investigate about the illegitimate son of the He family, he had indeed had a hard time in the past.

Since he had asked for a high position from him, Helian Yue didn't care whether he wanted to take revenge on the He family or for other reasons in the future.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Zun did not take action against the He family, but the He family sneaked into the palace first.

Now that it was all said, Helian Yue told her roughly what he had found out.

Si Linglong was stunned after hearing this.

"Ignorance can cause great harm."

【Albinism is a normal genetic disease! 】

As if he had thought of something, he couldn't help but ask, "So was He Yuanzun really murdered back then?"

After coming back to life, his behavior and personality are completely different from before. Si Linglong inexplicably smells a certain aura that is similar to hers.

Helian Yue heard her guess and was about to say something when he heard hurried footsteps outside the door. Soon, he heard the palace maid crying outside the door.

"Your Majesty, please go and see my queen. Concubine Lian is dying!"
