Zhu'er had taken care of everything last night and had been staying here all night. When she saw Qiao Yu come out, she walked up to her without changing her expression and put a cloak on her.
"Last night, I informed Aunt Sufang that you, the young lady, had been drunk and was resting in Yilan Palace. Aunt Sufang was skeptical but didn't say anything."
Yilan Palace is a palace where high-ranking officials and nobles who are too drunk to drink after a banquet can rest.
Qiao Yu: "You did a good job this time."
Zhu'er: "This is my duty."
What happened with Yan Qu last night was not in Qiao Yu's plan, although she believed in Yan Qu's ability to cover the sky with one hand, and Yan Fu had no time to come to her last night.
But without a thorough plan, we are always prepared for the worst.
Back at the Lanchao Palace, it was as if nothing had happened last night. Qiao Yu ordered people to go downstairs and prepare to take a bath. No one said anything, after all, Miss Zhu'er had also conveyed the message yesterday.
Just as it was getting dark, the man on the bed slowly woke up with a severe headache. He propped himself up and looked at the woman lying next to him. He was so frightened that he subconsciously kicked her off the bed.
Anger, disgust, and fear all surged in my heart, and the biggest emotion was fear. What if Lan'er found out about what happened today!!!
"Qiu Ziheng, you are so bold! How dare you plot against me!!!"
Filled with rage, Yan Fu wanted to kill the man right now, but even in this situation he could quickly weigh the pros and cons.
The reason why he killed the man now was because he had promised not to kill Qiu Ziqiang before, and also because he was afraid of arousing Qiao Yu's suspicion.
Yan Fu felt heartbroken when he thought of Qiao Yu looking at him with tearful eyes full of disappointment.
Qiu Zicheng was still asleep, and was a little dazed after being kicked off the bed. But when he came to his senses and thought about what happened last night, his face flushed with shame:
"Your Majesty, although it was my fault for not pushing you away last night, last night was the first time I received your kindness and you..."
The man on the bed quickly put on his coat, and when he saw Qiu Ziheng pretending to be shy and vomiting, he felt nauseous.
Yan Fu walked towards Qiu Ziheng. She thought the man was going to help her up, which would add a bit of color to her already rosy cheeks. However, reality soon shattered her wishful thinking.
Qiu Ziqiang jumped into the air, her face turned ashen in an instant. No matter how she struggled, she couldn't get free. In her blur, she seemed to see the man in front of her looking at her as if she were a corpse.
It was not until she really thought she was going to die that she was finally thrown to the ground. The feeling of getting fresh air again was really wonderful.
Yan Fu felt that his hands were getting even dirtier, but since the handkerchief on his body was embroidered by Qiao Yu, he didn't want it to be stained, so he had to give up.
"If you dare reveal even a single word of what happened today, your entire Qiu clan will be the ones to perish. Cherish the days you have left to live. If I discover you tampering with anything again, your poor mother will be the first to lead you to the underworld."
After saying this, Yan Fu was no longer willing to pay any attention to Qiu Ziqiang, who was gasping for breath like a dog on the ground.
Qiu Ziheng never imagined that the man who held him so tenderly last night would turn against him now and even kill his mother, whom he cared about the most, because of him.
How could it be... How could it be like this!
Yan Fu returned to the Yangxin Palace and took a bath no less than three times. He washed himself inside and out but still felt disgusted. The remorse made Yan Fu unable to suppress the urge to kill Qiu Ziqiang immediately.
I had no choice but to sweep away everything on the table to vent my hatred. How dare that stupid and despicable woman!
Of course, the ones who suffer the most are not the masters, but the servants.
Yu Yuanting didn't know what was wrong with the emperor today. He hurried back to the bedroom and ordered people to prepare for a bath. He took several baths before stopping.
After finally taking a break, there was a sound of something falling from the door again. No one rushed to the Yangxin Palace at this time, but someone from the Lanchao Palace conveyed a message, asking for instructions as soon as the emperor came back.
He didn't dare to offend the emperor, nor did he dare to neglect Yu Yuanting in the Lanchao Palace. In desperation, Yu Yuanting had to bite the bullet and go in to ask for instructions:
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? Don't get angry. If your servants don't do well, just punish them..."
Yu Yuanting paused, staring at Yan Fu's murderous gaze and continued, "The Imperial Concubine sent someone over, saying that the Emperor wanted to invite you over since you've returned..."
Yan Fu originally wanted to deal with Yu Yuanting, the incompetent servant. Although the Queen Mother summoned him last night and did not let anyone follow him, he did not return home the whole night and Yu Yuanting did not come to look for him?
Fortunately, Yu Yuanting mentioned Qiao Yu when he was one step away from death.
"Prepare the sedan chair... Forget it, it would be faster if I walked there myself."
“Yeah.”
At this moment, Yan Fu only wanted to see Qiao Yu, because only by seeing her could he feel at ease, so his pace became faster and faster, making the eunuchs and palace maids behind him unable to keep up.
Arriving at Lanchao Palace, Yan Fu waved his hand before the palace maids could unpack their luggage. He couldn't find Qiao Yu anywhere and asked anxiously, "What happened?"
"Where's the imperial concubine?"
Several servants were puzzled as to why the emperor was so anxious today, but it was not their place as servants to interfere in the emperor's affairs, and their heads were not worth much.
Zhu'er, who was the first to react, replied, "The Queen drank too much yesterday and is not feeling well. She is still resting in the bedroom."
When Yan Fu heard that Qiao Yu was not feeling well, he frowned subconsciously and his heart tightened.
"You don't feel well? Can you please call a doctor?"
Zhu Er shook her head: "Her Majesty said that she should just rest for a while, and she didn't let the servants call the imperial physician for fear of worrying Your Majesty."
"Ridiculous! The Imperial Concubine's health is more important than anything else. Why don't you quickly call the Imperial Physician?"
