The two walked slowly in the imperial garden
Mo Qiyuan suddenly remembered what he had wanted to ask her last night, but he forgot because of her beauty.
"Yun'er, I have something I'd like you to help me with."
Ye Jinyun looked at him with wide eyes, not understanding what the emperor needed her to explain.
"Your Majesty, please feel free to ask me if I have any questions. If I know anything, I will tell you everything."
"Look, on the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month before the Lunar New Year, I saw three amulets in the plum garden that were used to pray for my safety. I'd like to know if you three were the ones who tied them there?"
Ye Jinyun was a little surprised. She didn't expect him to ask this.
The amulet they hung was not seen by anyone at the time, but unexpectedly it was seen by the emperor himself.
Seeing his relieved look, they felt a little sorry for the reason they went to hang the amulet for him.
Holding back her guilty conscience, she blinked and smiled at him: "Your Majesty, I didn't expect you to see it all. Yes, we were the ones who hung up the amulet."
After a pause, he continued:
"During that time, the Emperor was seriously ill and the people were in a state of panic. The three of us were very worried about your health. You are the ruler of a country. Only if you are healthy can the Great Qi be peaceful and prosperous. Wan'er said that hanging amulets on the branches of red plum trees can pray for God's protection, so we agreed to go together."
Well, she is quite good at flattering people.
Suddenly, he felt something was wrong and asked in a low voice, "Shouldn't the emperor be recuperating in Chengqian Palace at that time? How could he have seen it?"
At this point, Mo Qiyuan coughed and felt a little uncomfortable. He couldn't say that he was pretending to be sick because he was too bored and sneaked out.
He gestured behind her with his eyes, "Others may not know, but doesn't Yun'er know it either?"
Ye Jinyun understood that he was pretending to be sick at that time.
That's right, she had detoxified him at that time, so he should be fine.
Combined with some of the situations in the court at that time, she understood what the emperor was planning at the time, but these were not things she could interfere with.
The two of them walked around the Imperial Garden for a while, and then Mo Qiyuan returned to the Imperial Study to take care of state affairs.
Ye Jinyun respectfully saw him off and then took Qing'er back to Yingquan Palace.
…
When passing by Yufu Palace, Ye Jinyun was stopped by a familiar female voice.
"Second sister, long time no see."
Ye Jinyun stopped and looked at Ye Jinrong, who he hadn't seen for some time, standing at the gate of Yufu Palace.
"Third sister, are you waiting for me here?"
Ye Jinrong stepped forward and bowed to her. Now her second sister was a Zhaoyi, and she was only a Jieyushi. According to palace rules, she had to bow to her when meeting her.
"Yesterday, I heard that the red spots on my second sister's face had disappeared and her appearance had returned to normal. The Emperor also promoted you. I have always wanted to come and see you, but I have been ill recently and have not been in good spirits, so I have not been able to come."
She leaned against the door, coughed twice and said:
"Today, I heard that my second sister had lunch with the Emperor and then went for a walk in the Imperial Garden. I guessed that you would pass by Yufu Palace on your way back to the palace, so I'm waiting here for you, wanting to talk to you."
Ye Jinyun looked at his third sister, who seemed like a completely different person since she was almost poisoned last year.
She was indeed sick as she said. She looked much more haggard and had a sickly look on her face.
Seeing her like this, Ye Jinyun frowned slightly:
"Why didn't you send anyone to tell me? Did you ask the imperial physician to see it?"
Ye Jinrong nodded weakly: "I've checked it out. The doctor said it's fine. It's just a cold. It will be better in a few days."
"That's good. You should be careful. If you have any problems, you can always ask someone to come to me."
Ye Jinrong looked at her stunning face, feeling indescribable.
After seeing her true appearance today, I realized that I can't compare to her at all. My previous self was like a clown.
Thinking of what she had done to her in the past and how she had treated herself, a tear suddenly rolled out of Ye Jinrong's eyes: "Okay, I get it, second sister."
Ye Jinyun curled his lips at her, told Xianglan to take good care of her, and left without staying any longer.
Seeing that she had walked away, Ye Jinrong asked Xianglan to help her back to the house.
At the corner of the yard, Bai Ruoli looked at Ye Jinrong's back as she entered the house, with a thoughtful look in her eyes.
…
Ye Jinyun served as the emperor's attendant for several days, and every time the emperor asked her to stay overnight in Chengqian Palace.
The concubines in the harem finally couldn't sit still anymore and started to make a fuss. They tore countless handkerchiefs into pieces.
Some concubines even said that she was a beauty who brought disaster, and reported her behavior of pestering the emperor until late at night every day to the empress dowager.
…
On this day, Ye Jinyun was having breakfast in a side hall of Chengqian Palace as usual when a palace maid from the Empress Dowager came to report that the Empress Dowager wanted her to go to Shoukang Palace.
Ruyi was helping her serve her porridge. When she heard this, she looked at her worriedly.
Ye Jinyun smiled at her and said it was okay. He asked her to take the breakfast away first, and then he followed the palace maid who came to report to the Queen Mother.
…
Ye Jinyun followed the palace maid all the way to Shoukang Palace and entered the hall.
There were already many concubines sitting in the hall. Ye Jinyun looked around. Some of them were people she had met a few days ago, and there were also many she didn't know. But without exception, these concubines were looking at her with gloating expressions.
Ye Jinyun: ...
Alas, why do women have to make things difficult for other women?
Silently walked forward and knelt before the Queen Mother.
"I pay my respects to the Queen Mother, and wish her good health and happiness."
The empress dowager looked at Ye Jinyun who was kneeling in the hall. Well, she was indeed as beautiful as a jade. No wonder her son liked her so much.
