Chapter 134 The Emperor is unhappy, the consequences are serious

Emperor Wu Su slowly stood up.

She straightened her sleeves and said nonchalantly, "She said no, and Prince Yong also denied that they had any relationship. Princess Yong, did you hear that clearly?"

Although his tone seemed casual, his eyebrows were slightly lowered and his eyelids were half closed. He was like a hawk in a cold night, with a deep chill in the corners of his eyes, as if he could see through everything.

Qingyun took a glance, shuddered, and immediately turned his head and sat up straight, fearing that he would be frozen by the cold.

Ji Qingwu had been paying attention to the emperor's every move. She suddenly realized that Emperor Wu Su was not fierce just now, and now he was truly cold.

She quickly picked up the hot tea on the table and took a sip.

Tao Wanyin knelt on the ground and saw the emperor's expression. She felt that the chill in his eyes was colder than the bricks and stones on the ground.

She said in panic: "Your Majesty, I, I was really deceived by her..."

Emperor Wu Su just raised his hand slightly, and Li Yuzong immediately bowed, walked quickly forward, and lowered his head to wait for the emperor's order.

"I think the princess seems to have some mental problems. She can't even understand what I say."

Emperor Wu Su's voice was low and majestic.

"Fortunately, there are many capable people in the palace who can cure hysteria. Princess Yong will move to Anle Hall from now on and live there permanently until she gives birth to the baby in her belly."

When everyone in the hall heard this, except Ji Qingwu, their faces changed drastically.

Prince Yong was surprised and said, "Brother, Wanyin did something wrong, but she can be confined to the palace instead of staying in Anle Hall in the palace."

The Queen Mother pondered for a moment and pleaded, "Your Majesty, Wanyin is still a princess after all. It may not be appropriate for her to stay in the palace."

Not to mention Qingyun, who was trembling slightly and his body involuntarily leaned towards Ji Qingwu, seeking protection.

Tao Wanyin's kneeling position had turned into a slumped sitting position on the ground. She was completely speechless and her eyes were full of despair.

What exactly is Anletang?

Judging from the name, Ji Qingwu thought it was a peaceful palace, but everyone's reactions indicated that it was not a good place.

"Take him away."

Emperor Wu Su left these three short words and turned away.

The farce finally ended.

Yinxiang quietly walked to Prince Yong's side, but was scolded aside by Zhao Minghong with a gloomy face.

His eyes were fixed on Tao Wanyin's back as she was being dragged away. He had lost all his romantic demeanor and looked as if his soul had been taken away. He looked extremely lonely.

The Queen Mother waved her purple sleeves tiredly, signaling them to leave.

Ji Qingwu walked out of the main hall, but before she had taken a few steps, someone called her.

"Ms. Ji."

She turned around in surprise and saw that it was Li Yuzong, the chief steward of the Imperial Household Department.

"Eunuch Li?"

Li Yuzong whispered, "Please follow me."

Ji Qingwu was worried and asked, "Excuse me, Eunuch Li, is there anything urgent? I've been out all day, and my family must be worried about me."

Li Yuzong replied, "I have sent Xiao Dongzi to the Ji Mansion to report that the Queen Mother has asked Miss Ji to stay in the palace for one night and return home tomorrow."

When did the Queen Mother ever keep her?

The one who kept her was someone else.

She looked around and gently refused, "Eunuch Li, I'm afraid this is inappropriate."

Seeing her hesitation, Li Yuzong whispered, "Miss Ji, don't waste time here. From what I see, His Majesty looks angry."

When the Emperor learned that the Empress Dowager was angry and had summoned Ji Qingwu, he was horrified after learning the reason behind it. He then ordered Prince Yong to enter the palace.

Ji Qingwu frowned. Sure enough, her feeling just now was correct. He deliberately ignored her because he was angry.

But Emperor Wu Su was unhappy, and she still went forward. Wasn't she asking for trouble?

Ji Qingwu's feet seemed to be nailed to the ground. She wanted to cry but had no tears. She just wanted to go home quickly.

"It will be bad if others see us. Please follow me." Li Yuzong was so anxious that his face was wrinkled, as if he had aged a lot in an instant. The emperor was already unhappy, and if he didn't bring the person here, he would have no way to report to his superiors.

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a clear shout.

"Fifth cousin!"

Qingyun caught up with her from behind.

When she saw who was in front of Ji Qingwu, she stopped in her tracks. It turned out to be Li Yuzong, the chief steward of the Imperial Household Department who was always inseparable from the emperor.

She looked around but didn't see her brother.

Turning around, he saw Chief Steward Li standing in front of his fifth cousin with his back bent. However, even in front of her mother, Li Yuzong did not have such a humble attitude.

Ji Qingwu turned around and saw her, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Your Highness, do you have something to talk to me about?"

Princess Qingyun stood one meter away from Ji Qingwu, looking at Li Yuzong who looked like a smiling tiger.

He said bitterly, "Fifth cousin, you...you should go well. I won't see you off."

After saying that, the pink figure ran away, not looking like someone who had just recovered from a serious illness.

Seeing this, Li Yuzong urged, "Miss Ji, please."

Ji Qingwu followed Eunuch Li and thought they would go to the Qinzheng Palace or the Zhaoyang Palace.

However, she followed it far.

The path twists and turns, and the southern corner of the Imperial Garden gradually comes into view, with a light ink-colored scene before our eyes.

They passed by the lotus pond where the Deer Singing Banquet was held last time and came to the pavilion beside the pond.

Ji Qingwu stared at the door of the pavilion and felt it was extremely familiar. The last time Ji Changlin and the prince consort had a fight, it was here.

She looked up and saw a rectangular lacquer plaque, covered in hemp gray, with a black frame and red lacquer. The cloud and dragon patterns were outlined with the gold-leaf lacquer method, and looked lifelike.

In the middle is a sunken relief with the three characters "Handan Pavilion" engraved in regular script. Its mottled texture, due to the passage of time, makes it look even more quaint.

Li Yuzong hurriedly said, "Miss Ji, the emperor is inside, please go in quickly."

Ji Qingwu took a deep breath and stepped lightly into the hall.

Because the library contained ancient books and other treasures, it used blackout paper on the windows and had no lights on, so it was gloomy inside.

Ji Qingwu slowed down his pace, widened his eyes, and looked around, trying to find the emperor.

To the right was a large display cabinet with an incense burner on the top. The fragrance of lotus leaves was refreshing, and the curling smoke made it difficult for her to see what was in front of her. She walked towards the display cabinet.

When she got closer, she found that behind the antique display cabinet there was a blood-red sandalwood desk that was as big as the bed.

Emperor Wu Su was sitting at the table with his eyes closed, resting.

Ji Qingwu walked forward gently, only a desk separating him from the others. The light was dim, but the outline of his face was still clear, his bones were deep, and a cold aura came over him.

Hearing his long and even breathing, Ji Qingwu couldn't help but lean forward and close the distance between them.

She looked at him carefully. The man had long eyelashes and delicate eyes that were slightly raised. Even with his eyes closed, he still had a bit of rebelliousness.

Thinking back to how he ignored her and was distant in the Cining Palace, Ji Qingwu pouted, silently expressing her dissatisfaction.

Emperor Wu Su seemed to notice her insolence and suddenly opened his eyes.
