However, Ye Huaiting never took any action.
The shadow guard who was watching the concubine Yue Niang never saw Yue Niang fiddling with any kind of Gu, so he had no idea where to steal it.
Yan Shiyue finally felt that safety was more important than face, and sent a shadow guard to quietly ask Zheng Haoran. He said, "I just overheard them talking about this. In addition, the fragrance on her body is a bit special, like the fragrance commonly used by people who control Gu."
Yan Shiyue: “…”
What should she do if she gets more and more worried? Or should she ask Bao Zheng to get him back?
However, Zheng Haoran said to her, "Don't worry, Master. The insects can usually only be put into half-cold tea or wine. Just be careful. In addition, Master Jiang sent a junior brother to clean up the sect. He may come to Chang'an soon. He happens to be someone that Master likes to use."
What does it mean to like people who use it?
Is she giving them up just for the sake of her face?
Is she that kind of person?
However, the next day, Prince Xin's eldest son and second son really came to give them gifts.
...
...
After all, it was a period of national mourning, so gifts had to be given in a very low-key manner. It was impossible to bring several large carts here. The two men, one a scholar and one a warrior, were both imposing figures, and they gave them a pair of very beautiful swords.
They also gave me a pair of balls for children to play with, made of pure gold, with many small gold objects inside, all of which were exquisite.
Yan Shiyue knew that they would come to give gifts, but she was still very surprised.
And probably because they are the same kind of people, Prince Xin and Huo Qijing can get along quite well.
So they accepted it.
A day later, it was heard that Princess Jiahui persuaded Emperor Ming Yan to offer Hongdou Girl to him.
Coincidentally, Emperor Ming Yan actually had some impression of the little girl back then! Missing the empress dowager, he accepted it and placed it next to the empress.
Yan Shiyue was completely confused.
So? Then why did she come to inform the queen so eagerly? Why did she let this person into the palace?
Yan Shiyue happened to watch half of the show and saw the girl with his own eyes. She was indeed very pretty, but... she was the typical type of girl who was pretty in the eyes of men but green tea in the eyes of women.
Princess Jiahui squinted at the queen, revealing a hint of sarcasm... that was written all over her face, "You say you've been the most favored concubine in the harem for twenty years, but you've only been bringing in new people one after another? I want to see how long you can stay in this glory!"
The queen smiled calmly, and when no one was paying attention, she gave Yan Shiyue a look that urged her to stay calm.
Yan Shiyue really didn’t understand… Could it be that there were too many lice and they weren’t afraid of being bitten?
But after waiting for two days, the queen did nothing.
She couldn't figure out the way, so she just ignored it and continued to wait for the problem of the insect to be resolved like she was waiting for the second shoe.
As a result, before he could get the shoes, he heard a piece of news when he returned home.
The second son of the Marquis of Nan'an... the second son of the lady who was frightened by Yan Shiyue's knife before, and Princess Jiahui, met a frightened horse on the street, hugged each other, and rolled back and forth several times with their skin pressed against each other, face to face and mouth to mouth in front of everyone...
The second son of Marquis Nan'an expressed his willingness to take responsibility.
So Emperor Ming Yan said that after the mourning period was over, he would allow him to become Princess Jiahui's consort.
You know, the second son of Marquis Nan'an is a super fat man who wheezes even when he walks!
Princess Jiahui was not only very beautiful, but also lost her husband the year before. However, she was obviously in love with him, otherwise she would not have found ways to annoy her love rival even though he was dead, even though she was the queen.
But... she took advantage of Emperor Ming Yan's nostalgia for the Empress Dowager, but all she could do was use a sentence. But the second son of Marquis Nan'an is a family member of the Empress Dowager!
Moreover, it was in front of everyone, and they were so close. Unless she died, the marriage would have to go through.
You know, during this sensitive period,
Once the Queen Mother leaves, can the relationship last for three to five years, or even a lifetime? At this time, do the Queen Mother's family members dare to offend the Queen?
Princess Jiahui thought that her status was superior and the Queen could not do anything to her, but the Queen did whatever she wanted to do to her.
Yan Shiyue finally understood what the Queen meant by "going back feeling sick".
She was really going to kneel down at the feet of the Queen Mother! This was called a level 10 palace fighting master! If she didn't move, she would kill with one strike!
But that’s not the end of the story.
A few days later, when Yan Shiyue entered the palace again, she accidentally met Princess Jiade, Ye Huaiting's mother, who was walking and talking side by side with Emperor Ming Yan.
Yan Shiyue had been thinking about this matter recently. When he saw it for the first time, his heart trembled. He quickly walked forward, bowed, and then forcibly separated the two of them.
Then she grabbed Emperor Ming Yan's sleeve and asked for conversation: "What are you talking about?"
Emperor Ming Yan glanced at her with slight surprise.
He knew Yan Shiyue very well. Yan Shiyue often liked to act coquettishly and pull his sleeves, but at this moment, she was holding his hand through his sleeves. This was a...how to say it, a defensive action.
Princess Jiade certainly didn't know. She hesitated for a moment before saying, "I'm talking about my fourteenth brother..."
She wiped her tears and said, "Fourteenth brother is already over thirty, but he is still so heartless. Yesterday, I met him on the road and invited him to the palace, but who would have thought that he..."
She shook her head repeatedly and choked up, saying, "I am really disappointed for the Queen Mother. It's a pity that the Queen Mother loves him so much."
Yan Shiyue was very impatient with this kind of woman who only said half and kept the other half, and asked: "What did he say? Auntie, let me hear it?"
Princess Jiade was somewhat confused about her thoughts.
If she were to ask her, no one would like Prince Ke's mouth, but he had a good face. It was said that he now lived in the palace for many years... Yan Shiyue even asked for an official position for him, so he should not hate him.
She was a little hesitant.
Yan Shiyue asked: "What did he say?"
Princess Jiade could only say: "He said, 'The person is dead, why are you still pretending?'"
Yan Shiyue said politely: "Fourteenth Uncle has a foul mouth, aunt, don't bother with him."
Princess Jiade had no choice but to say, "Of course."
Then Yan Shiyue asked politely: "Aunt, is there anything else?"
Princess Jiade was stunned for a moment, and had to say, "Well, my brother, I will take my leave first."
Yan Shiyue stared at her as she walked away before letting go of her hand. Emperor Ming Yan looked at her sideways and asked, "What's wrong?"
Yan Shiyue said, "Nothing?" and looked at Gu Jiuxing, but Manager Gu did not dare to look back.
Emperor Mingyan said, "Tell me. What's going on?"
Yan Shiyue felt that she really couldn't hide the truth! She whispered to him, "I heard that one of her son's concubines can control Gu!"
Emperor Mingyan frowned, then said: "Even if that's the case, she would have to be a fool to attack me and you! Jiade is a smart man, don't worry."
Yan Shiyue said: "You still have to be careful. If you can avoid meeting, then don't meet. If you do meet, stay away from her."
"I understand." Emperor Ming Yan probably thought of the queen back then, and said, "I won't see her anymore."
Yan Shiyue nodded and followed him to the imperial study. Then Emperor Ming Yan looked at the memorial. She took a magnifying glass and looked at his whole body, from head to toe, even between his nails. She even asked him to stand up and look at his back before she left with peace of mind.
Gu Jiuxing was made very nervous by her.
At the same time, he silently decided that the emperor must not be allowed to see this person in the near future.
