Chapter 154 Return to the Capital
Palace
The Miao girl who was sorting out the poisonous insects suddenly felt a sense of danger in her heart. Before she could react, she felt a pain in her chest, "Puff——"
Her movement attracted the maid outside the door.
"Girl, are you okay?"
"It's okay, you go down first."
The Miao girl sent the palace maid away and leaned back in her chair, panting. With trembling hands, she took out a pill from the leather bag at her waist and put it into her mouth.
Her insect was silenced.
Are there any other experts from Miaojiang around Xie Lixing?
Miao Nu's eyes darkened, and she turned to look outside, thinking that when Wei Jia came over, she would investigate where he had been and who he had met today.
She was sure that, except for the previous chieftain who had been missing for many years, no one in the capital could be her opponent.
Could it be that the previous chieftain is not dead?
Is she just hiding in the capital under an assumed name?
The Miao girl was thinking when she heard the voice of a palace maid outside the door, "Greetings, Princess."
"Well, go down."
The speed at which Wei Jia came made Miao Nu narrow her eyes slightly.
The other party paid more attention to her than she thought.
"Miss Jiumi, the princess is here." The palace maid greeted Weijia and spoke to the inside of the house, signaling Jiumi to open the door for Weijia and not to keep her waiting for too long.
Jiu Mi frowned, displeasure flashing in his eyes.
But thinking about her current situation, she could only go to open the door, "Why is the princess here?"
Wei Jia looked at Jiu Mi's pale face, and a hint of worry appeared on her face.
"I heard from the palace servants that you were injured, so I brought the imperial physician to see you. How are you feeling?" Wei Jia walked in, her skirt lifted, and then waved her hand behind her, "Take Miss Jiumi's pulse."
The condition for Jiumi to enter the palace is that he must listen to Weijia.
If she didn't listen to Weijia, Weijia would not let her stay in the palace.
Being under the eaves, Jiumi had no choice but to bow her head and let the imperial physician brought by Weijia diagnose her pulse.

After two days of getting along, Yueli has become accustomed to Asa's presence. Asa is like an elder, living in a small house and not going out unless necessary.
However, Yueli was seriously injured.
Whenever Yueli was injured, Asa would go out to inspect and keep a close eye on everyone in the house.
Ever since Asa came in, all the snakes, insects, rats and ants in the palace disappeared and no longer dared to appear arrogantly in Yueli's yard.
After all, appear once, be eaten once.
If Ah She wasn't really a little scary, Yue Li would be able to accept the fact that she had an unusual elder.
The days passed one by one, until the barrage said that Liu Yuanzhou had returned to the capital and was already outside the capital.
The news that the Seventh Prince was brave and good at fighting, and that he bravely killed enemies on the frontier and captured the heads of enemy generals, had long been spread in the court.
When Liu Yuanzhou rode into the capital, the people went out to celebrate his return.
He sat on his horse and looked around proudly.
Now everyone in the dynasty knew that he, Liu Yuanzhou, was the new generation of war god of this dynasty! His prestige in the hearts of the people was no longer what it used to be.
Now, he is a hero!
The only thing that made him dissatisfied was that Xie Lixing had silenced the Prime Minister!
Thinking of how he had harmed the Prime Minister, Liu Yuanzhou's expression almost collapsed. He tried hard to smile and wave to the people, acting like a prince who loved his people.
However, after seeing Xie Lixing standing beside the emperor, Liu Yuanzhou's smile could no longer be maintained.
"Your son greets His Majesty!" Liu Yuanzhou dismounted and knelt on one knee before the emperor.
The emperor nodded repeatedly, "Good, good, my son has made it!"
After Liu Yuanzhou went out, he looked healthier (and darker)!
Yue Li naturally did not want to miss the grand scene of the new god of war returning to the court. She hid in the crowd with a veil on her head, staring at Liu Yuanzhou's back and pouting constantly.
Didn’t he return to the capital a long time ago?
You are really good at pretending.
"Seventh brother, you have worked hard during this period! Come on, the prince will take you to wash up. Tonight in the East Palace, you and the prince will not leave until you are drunk!" The prince stepped forward and hugged Liu Yuanzhou tightly.
Killing the Prime Minister is a great thing for the Crown Prince.
So, now he likes Liu Yuanzhou a lot more.
"No, I have been exhausted for the past few days. After reporting to the palace later, I will return home to rest and we will meet again another day." Compared to when he went to the border, Liu Yuanzhou now looks more calm and reserved.
It seems that the frontier is really a good place to train people.
No wonder his staff specifically recommended him to go to war. It turned out that he wanted to go there to temper his character.
"Princess, the Seventh Prince looks different from before." Qi Yu looked at the person in front of him with a dark look and a flash of disgust in his eyes.
Thinking of Liu Yuanzhou's previous entanglement with Yueli, Qi Yu felt a little worried.
Will her princess be harassed by him again?
Yueli shook her head and said, "No, he wouldn't do such a stupid thing now." However, it was hard to say whether he would try to win her over again and ask her for help.
The only thing that is certain is that Liu Yuanzhou will definitely resume contact with Chen Chaolu in the palace.
Xie Lixing stood beside the emperor, looking at his hypocritical eyes, and the sarcastic curve at the corner of his lips disappeared in an instant.
Did Liu Yuanzhou think that the emperor would let him go if he returned from the war to gain some military merits?
No, it is unacceptable to have an affair with the emperor's woman or to do anything to the emperor, even if he is the emperor's biological son.
Even if Liu Yuanzhou wanted to keep a low profile and refuse, the emperor did not allow it. He held a celebration banquet for Liu Yuanzhou, so he would have attended even if he did not attend.
evening
Yueli and Xie Lixing arrived at the palace. Yueli looked around cautiously, "It's a pity Ah She can't become smaller, otherwise it would be so nice to take her with me. I would feel safe."
Xie Lixing nodded in agreement.
"Well, you better be careful later. Wei Jia and Chen Chaolu are both eyeing you covetously. They might find a chance to frame you."
He may not always be by her side, so she has to be careful about everything.
Yukari nodded to show that she understood.
Not long after the two of them sat down, the emperor came with his favorite concubine (Chen Chaolu). Looking at Chen Chaolu sitting next to the emperor, Yueli couldn't help but put her hand on her big belly.
It seems dangerous no matter how you look at it.
In particular, Chen Chaolu is now frighteningly thin, and her belly looks even bigger, which makes people feel even more terrified.
"Sister, why are you looking at me like that?" Noticing Yueli's eyes, a dark light flashed in Chen Chaolu's eyes, and she smiled gently at Yueli.
In a few days, it will be her due date.
She wants to ensure her own safety...
Then, a chill flashed in Chen Chaolu's eyes, and she turned to look at the emperor, "Your Majesty, you know this is my first time giving birth, and I want my family to be with me. Can I bring my sister and mother to live in the palace in a few days?"
"certainly!"
Yueli, who was drinking water, paused and almost spit out the water.
She knew that the royal food was not that delicious!
"The Prime Minister's wife can enter the palace. I don't understand any of this, and entering the palace will only cause trouble." Yueli declined.
"Rou Fei is scared, you just need to stay with her to give her courage." The emperor seemed not to understand Yue Li's refusal and directly made the final decision, "Don't leave tonight."
