Yan Fu had lunch with Qiao Yu and then went back to the Qianqing Palace to review memorials. As the emperor who had just ascended the throne, he was really busy.
He was able to take time out to have dinner with Qiao Yu just to test her a few times and let her see the traitor.
Qiao Yu took Zhu'er into the palace not only to reduce the emperor's vigilance towards her, but also Hua Yunlan in the original plot took Zhu'er into the palace.
However, Hua Yunlan went to ask the Empress Dowager for help, which was different from asking the Emperor for help himself.
Asking the Queen Mother for help would inevitably make Yan Fu, a suspicious man by nature, feel resentful. If Zhu'er was not brought in, it would be of little help to Qiao Yu in what he would do in the future.
Zhu'er was a true protector of her master. She protected Hua Yunlan until her death. No one could compare to her loyalty to Hua Yunlan.
But Zhu'er was killed by the heroine in the end. Hua Yunlan was not a pushover either, and she also killed the maid who was the heroine's right-hand man, as a revenge for Zhu'er.
Yan Fu asked her to see the Regent, and Qiao Yu didn't think it was a blatant test.
For her, it was really easy for someone to hand her a pillow whenever she felt sleepy.
"Your Majesty, we should be careful with our words and actions when we go to the Prince Regent's Palace later."
Aunt Sufang also knew that saying this might annoy the master, but the emperor's order was obviously not just to ask Qiao Yu to visit the patient.
It's better than her being the only one punished than having everyone in Lan Zhao Palace, from masters to servants, beheaded.
"I understand what my aunt said. I'm sorry to trouble you. I will be sensible."
Aunt Sufang saw that Qiao Yu was still calm and gentle, and not angry, so her worries were not so great.
"This is the duty of a servant."
Perhaps it was the memory given by Hua Yunlan, Qiao Yu also knew that Su Fang was trustworthy, so he could understand her even when she was talking in a rather obscure way.
Appropriate frankness is the most loyal and reliable.
When Qiao Yu saw that the person in front of the bronze mirror had changed out of her complicated palace attire, she felt a little dazed, as if she was still the unmarried young lady Yunying from yesterday.
"Have Yan'er watch over the soup in the small kitchen. It needs to be simmered slowly over low heat. I'll bring it to the Emperor when I get back."
When Aunt Sufang thought about how Qiao Yu went to the small kitchen to stew soup as soon as she got up today, and how the emperor was testing her in this way, she felt more and more sorry for Qiao Yu.
I hope the emperor can understand my true feelings this morning.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Yan'er is a careful maid. The soup from the imperial kitchen has just been served."
Sufang saw that Qiao Yu was not as arrogant as people said. Although the soup for the patients came from the imperial kitchen, the one for the emperor was made by the empress herself.
If she were really that rigid, she would definitely not be so gentle and generous. The ingredients used in the imperial kitchen are the finest wild ginseng from Changbai Mountain brought by the master.
The sedan chair was stuck for a long time. How come there were traffic jams in ancient times?
Qiao Yu opened the curtain:
"What happened in front of Sufang?"
The carriage was blocked by a large group of women. Was it because that store was having a sale and business was so good that they were blocking the road?
The people of the Dongxu Dynasty were open-minded, and there were not so many restrictions on women's behavior. They were not forced to stay at home, and there were no taboos between men and women to the point of not being able to meet.
Su Fang: "Madam, in front of you is this year's top scholar, Lord Su Yu. He is young and full of knowledge, both literary and martial, and has earned the Emperor's admiration. He is over eight feet tall, and his appearance is as beautiful as Pan An. Every young lady waiting to be married is fascinated by Lord Su."
When some of the women saw how luxurious Qiao Yu's sedan chair was, they immediately stepped aside, allowing the sedan bearers to move forward.
Qiao Yu: Why are you reciting "Zou Ji's Advice to the King of Qi"? But even if I were to tell her, Su Fang probably wouldn't know what she was talking about.
Because Aunt Sufang's praise for the new top scholar was so calm and sincere that there was no hint of advocacy at all.
As the sedan passed by the man, Qiao Yu looked at the talented man curiously.
Their eyes happened to meet.
Su Yuben was still worried about not being able to pass, but he couldn't just ride his horse for fear of stepping on someone.
The sedan was already conspicuous, and Su Yu accidentally saw Qiao Yu in the sedan, and his beautiful eyes were slightly stunned.
Su Yu: What a beautiful woman!
"Sir Su, my father has many famous paintings that he would like to have your advice on."
The women surrounding Su Yu were thinking of various ways to invite him to their homes, but they didn't know that the young man they admired was attracted by another woman at this time.
When he came back to his senses from being immersed in the other person's beauty, Su Yu realized that his behavior was a bit lewd.
Fortunately, the other party lowered the curtain and did not notice my...my wolf-like gaze.
Su Yu felt relieved and recalled that Qiao Yu quickly looked away the moment their eyes met, unlike the gazes of other women who wanted to tear him apart.
It turns out that there are many women in the world who are not fooled by appearance. He suddenly became curious about the beautiful scene of the lady's beautiful eyes showing admiration.
But Qiao Yu really didn't care much. In the previous mission world, she was in the entertainment industry, where she saw many handsome men and beautiful women.
That man would definitely stand out in the entertainment industry, but Qiao Yu had been moving between those three people for several years, and she was also aesthetically fatigued by the appearance of the emperor who had taken on a new task.
It is indeed beautiful, but not so beautiful that it would make Qiao Yu dizzy.
The Regent's residence is not too far from the Imperial Palace, at least closer than the Duke of Hua's Mansion. After all, the Regent has been in poor health for many years.
If he lived far away, he would have to endure the daily commute to court.
The Regent's Palace is not as magnificent as the Imperial Palace, but it also has green tiles and red roofs.
When the guards saw their sedan approaching, they immediately stepped forward to greet them, thinking that it was some lord who was on good terms with their prince, who had come to discuss government affairs.
