Chapter 251 Ye Yaqin complains
“Your Highness!”
Su Jingyao suddenly sat up from the bed, her movements flustered.
She blinked her eyelashes several times unconsciously, her eyes were chaotic and confused.
No, Your Majesty?
Su Jingyao's mind was in a mess at this moment, like a tangled mess.
She felt like she was herself, yet not herself.
I just had a dream, and the person in the dream seemed to be Jun Zechen, but he was wearing a shining dragon robe and looked extremely majestic.
There was another woman who looked exactly like her and was crying.
Birthday? Is she having a birthday?
Su Jingyao lowered her head with a frown on her face. It was so real, as if she was experiencing it herself.
Just as Su Jingyao was sitting on the bed, in a trance, with her head lowered, unable to distinguish between reality and dreams, Miaoyun heard the sound and hurried in.
"Master, His Highness has gone to the morning court early. If you miss His Highness, I will ask the people in Yude Hall to report to His Highness after he returns."
Miaoyun jokingly said with a smile on her face as she deftly opened the bed curtains and hung them on both sides.
After the master became pregnant, she became more dependent on Your Highness.
After Miaoyun had hung the bed curtains on both sides, she looked closely at her master and found that her face was pale, without a trace of blood, and there were beads of sweat on her forehead, which were gleaming in the candlelight.
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
Miaoyun's voice suddenly became anxious. She quickly bent down and held her master's hand, but found that her hand was as cold as jade.
"Master, I will call the imperial physician for you."
Miaoyun's voice trembled and she turned around to go out.
The master is pregnant, there can't be any mistakes.
"No thanks, Miaoyun."
When Miaoyun held Su Jingyao's hand, Su Jingyao gradually came back to her senses. She shook her head gently and held Miaoyun.
"It was just a nightmare, nothing serious."
Su Jingyao's voice was still a little weak.
Miaoyun was still full of worries, with a frown on her face.
"Are you really alright? Master, please don't be so stubborn. You are pregnant with the royal heir."
Her eyes were full of concern.
"It's really okay, help me up and wash up."
Although Su Jingyao's voice was soft, it was unquestionable.
Of course she is aware of her own body, and the child is well behaved and nothing is wrong.
Su Jingyao sat in front of the dressing table and looked at herself in the mirror with a dazed look. Her delicate face was very beautiful, except that her lip color was a little pale.
She recalled the woman she saw in her dream. In the dream, she seemed to be able to empathize with her deeply. When she cried, she seemed to be able to empathize with her and even sensitively felt that she was pretending.
But it's something she can do.
Could it be that what she dreamed about last night was Lingyue’s previous life?
That is to say, she traveled into the world of the original book, and then she acted in front of Jun Zechen, pretending to be innocent and gaining sympathy?
She was prepared to do so before she married into the Eastern Palace, but later changed her strategy after discovering that Jun Zechen was completely different.
It happened that she had this dream after Ling Yue confessed everything to her. Now she doesn’t care about her past life anymore. She is definitely the winner anyway, and she will still be the winner in this life.
It doesn’t matter whether you dream about it or not.
Miaoxia was gently combing her long hair behind her master.
Because of her pregnancy, Su Jingyao seldom goes out, so her hair is usually left loose, but she will slightly fix it in a style.
"Master, after you came out of Qiluan Palace yesterday, Ye Liangdi also came out of Qiluan Palace. Our people have been monitoring Ye Liangdi and did not find any movement from her."
Miaoxia reported softly while combing her hair.
A cold look instantly appeared in Su Jingyao's eyes, and her gaze became stern.
Ling Yue asked her to go yesterday, maybe the real purpose was Ye Yaqin?
Could it be possible that some of Ling Yue's memories could be traded with Ye Yaqin?
Ling Yue will be leaving the palace in a month. Is she planning to let Ye Yaqin deal with her?
Many questions flashed through Su Jingyao's mind.
She lowered her head, her eyes fell on her bulging belly, and her expression became more solemn.
Her favor was too conspicuous, and she had become a thorn in the eyes of everyone in the backyard. Whether it was Ye Yaqin or the other six newcomers, they were probably secretly plotting to deal with her.
But now that the Queen is in charge of the palace and has sent people to look after her, these women would not know where to start if they want to deal with her.
If the baby in her belly is harmed, unless she can escape unscathed, hundreds of lives in her family will be implicated.
However, in order to prevent any accidents, Su Jingyao still has to make all the necessary preparations.
She was praised openly by Jun Zechen, so some hidden attacks were inevitable.
"Miaoxia, let Li Jing find a way to enter the palace in a month." Su Jingyao said firmly.
After Ling Yue left, no one would know Li Jing. As for what Ling Yue and Ye Yaqin said, we can only slowly test it out later.
The most important thing now is the child. Su Jingyao will not underestimate women's jealousy. With Li Jing entering the palace, she will feel more at ease taking care of the baby.
Han Deyuan.
Ever since Ye Yaqin came back from Qiluan Palace yesterday, she looked as if she had lost her soul and was in a trance.
She has always been cautious, but when the Crown Princess called her to Qiluan Palace yesterday, she was completely off guard.
It was not until she learned that the Crown Prince was going to send the Crown Princess out of the palace for the sake of his concubine that she woke up from her dream and suddenly realized that she had fallen into an extremely passive situation.
Since the Crown Prince can be so decisive for the Concubine, it is natural that the Crown Princess poses a great threat to the Concubine.
Every word of what the Crown Princess said yesterday revealed her deep hatred for the concubine.
If that's the case, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince might have been secretly monitoring the Crown Princess this month. Then wouldn't she also be suspected by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince when she leaves Qiluan Palace?
Thinking of this, Ye Yaqin couldn't help but take a breath and felt confused.
Yesterday, Ye Yaqin was extremely anxious and prepared to write a letter back to the Ye family immediately to ask about the real situation of her father. But then she thought calmly, if she was being monitored by His Highness now, could the letter really reach her father safely?
She couldn't act so rashly.
"Xiang Ling, send someone to Yude Hall to ask for an audience with His Highness."
There was anxiety in Ye Yaqin's voice, but she tried hard to maintain her composure.
She couldn't panic.
"Yes, master." Xiang Ling responded and hurried to make arrangements.
Yude Hall.
Ever since the Crown Prince returned from court, although he was still as serious and stern as usual, An Shun always felt that His Highness was in a bad mood.
Jun Zechen's brows were furrowed the whole time, with a suppressed fire in his eyes.
An Shun was careful in everything he did and said, and was cautious in every move, even breathing as lightly as possible, for fear of accidentally touching His Highness's mold and bringing about an unnecessary disaster.
Jun Zechen was reviewing memorials in his study, but the densely packed text seemed like a mess in front of him and he couldn't read it at all.
Who was the "Highness" she dreamed of last night?
Does she really have memories of her past life like Ling Yue?
Jun Zechen felt a mass of anger in his heart, which was surging in his chest, but he had nowhere to vent it.
The speculation in his heart was like a ghost hovering in his mind, but there was no way to confirm it.
He can't ask!
Jun Zechen felt extremely annoyed by this matter which was completely beyond his control.
Just at this moment, An Shun walked in quietly.
He bent his waist slightly, looked respectful, and whispered, "Your Highness, Ye Liangdi sent someone to see you."
Jun Zechen raised his eyebrows slightly, and a hint of thought flashed across his eyes.
He naturally knew that Ling Yue had called Ye Yaqin and Su Jingyao to the Qiluan Palace for dinner yesterday. The reason why Jun Zechen felt at ease letting Su Jingyao go was, firstly, he had people planted in the Qiluan Palace, and secondly, the food in the Qiluan Palace could not possibly be poisonous.
Although his people did not hear what they said in the hall, Jun Zechen didn't really care about it.
How could a woman who was about to be sent out of the palace and had no power at all make any big waves?
As for Ye Yaqin, if she had been more obedient, he would not have killed all the members of the Ye family.
In his previous life, if the Ye family had not become increasingly ambitious after Ye Yaqin gave birth to a prince, and had attempted to take action when the princes were still young, Jun Zechen would not have killed the Ye family.
However, he is determined to gain control of the Ye family's military power in this life.
"Let her come over here."
Jun Zechen thought for a while and answered slowly.
A quarter of an hour later, Ye Yaqin was dressed very gently, wearing a light blue long dress with fluttering sleeves, graceful and soft.
She walked into the study.
"I pay my respects to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Ye Yaqin bowed gracefully, her voice soft and gentle, but her face seemed to show something on her mind.
"Get up." Jun Zechen said casually.
However, Ye Yaqin knelt on the ground and did not stand up.
"Your Highness, I would like to see you today and report something to you."
A look of fear suddenly appeared on Ye Yaqin's face, as if she had seen a ghost.
"The Crown Princess is an ominous person. Maybe... maybe she is possessed by something unclean!"
Her voice was staccato and her teeth were chattering.
Jun Zechen then slowly raised his head to look at her, with his eyes lowered, and there was an elusive emotion in his eyes, deep and dark.
He also possessed the original Jun Zechen......
"I don't believe in ghosts and gods, just say what you want to say."
Jun Zechen's voice was low and carried an irresistible majesty.
"Your Highness, yesterday the Crown Princess summoned me and the Concubine to the Qiluan Palace, but I went there earlier and the Concubine arrived later. After the Concubine arrived, the Crown Princess asked me to hide and eavesdrop on their conversation."
Ye Yaqin suppressed her fear and spoke slowly.
"But what the Crown Princess said was so bizarre that I was so scared."
Ye Yaqin's body began to tremble slightly and her lips lost their color.
"She even wanted me to kill the concubine!"
When Ye Yaqin said this, her voice suddenly rose and her eyes were full of panic.
Jun Zechen's gaze instantly fell straight on Ye Yaqin like a sharp sword, as if it could pierce her.
Did Ling Yue really tell her this?
She has already been forced to leave the palace, but she still refuses to let Su Jingyao go?
"Why did the Crown Princess ask you to kill the Concubine? What did she tell you? What did you hear?"
Jun Zechen's voice became colder.
"The Crown Princess said that she has memories of her past life, and that the heir in the concubine's belly will be your successor in the future. He is very young, very talented, and will enter the court early. He will kill the concubine and even get rid of the Ye family."
Ye Yaqin lowered her head, her voice was filled with tears, and her shoulders kept shaking.
"The Crown Princess said that only if I kill the concubine can I save myself and the Ye family."
"Your Highness, how can I believe such a ridiculous statement? The Crown Princess must be crazy!"
Today's scene is a risky move.
Ye Yaqin's appearance from Qiluan Palace yesterday had already made the prince suspicious. Now the only way to dispel his suspicion was to stand on his side.
If the Crown Prince wanted to send the Crown Princess out of the palace, he must have already prepared a reason, but now, Ye Yaqin gave him a new reason.
A crazy person, a suspicious person, certainly cannot be the Crown Princess, and cannot be the future Empress.
Ye Yaqin naturally would not tell the Crown Princess that the person who really wanted to get rid of the Ye family was the Crown Prince.
If the prince had already had this idea at this time, she might have been silenced on the spot, and it would have accelerated the demise of the Ye family.
Ye Yaqin was not afraid that Jun Zechen would question Ling Yue. Even if Ling Yue said that it was the prince who was going to get rid of the Ye family, the prince was suspicious by nature, so who would he believe?
She came here today to convince the Crown Prince that she and the Crown Princess were not in cahoots and that she would not plot to harm the concubine.
Jun Zechen didn't expect Ling Yue to resort to such tricks after leaving the palace.
Her lips were pursed tightly and her face looked a little ugly.
"I understand. I will send the imperial physician to diagnose the Crown Princess."
This “diagnosis” may not be the same as that “diagnosis”.
"The Crown Princess is talking nonsense. The concubine is carrying my only child. Not only does my father and mother value him, but I will not tolerate anyone causing harm to the Crown Prince."
Jun Zechen leaned forward slightly, with a very oppressive feeling, his eyes were like a bottomless black sea, which made people shudder.
Ye Yaqin raised her eyes and looked at the prince, and couldn't help but shudder.
"Yes, I would never dare to do anything to harm the heir to the throne or the concubine."
"Well, if there is nothing else, please leave."
Jun Zechen waved his hand with a cold tone.
"Thank you, Your Highness. I will take my leave now."
Ye Yaqin stood up hurriedly. Her legs were numb from kneeling. She trembled and, with Xiang Ling's support, she turned around and left the Yude Hall with staggering steps.
