Chapter 96 The Secret in the Tree Hole



Li Xuanji disregarded everything else and immediately flew up to the tree branch to investigate.

What if it's some kind of hidden weapon?

It was dark and I didn't know what it was, but when I touched it, I realized it was wood.

Pick it up and tap it around; it should be solid.

There is no danger.

After the crisis was averted, Li Xuanji breathed a sigh of relief. "How did Your Majesty know there was a cave and something here?"

Now, in his eyes, Murong Yue is just like a child.

I'm afraid some bad people might take advantage of Murong Yue's curiosity and put something dangerous inside.

Murong Yue took the item and rubbed it on her fingers.

"I...I don't know."

She genuinely didn't know.

How did they get up there? How did they make their move?

It's as if everything is instinctive.

This feeling of not being able to control her body made her uncomfortable.

She's an excellent zombie; her body is her greatest weapon, beyond her control—how could that be allowed?

She lost interest in playing anymore and led the people back to her own courtyard.

Ah Hao ordered someone to bring warm water and personally cleaned the things His Majesty had brought back, fearing there might be some harmful substances on them.

They even summoned the imperial physician to examine the poison.

Only after ensuring there were no problems was it handed over to Murong Yue.

The candlelight cast a thin glow in the room. Murong Yue leaned against the bed, while the little rabbit on the footstool raised its paw and swung it wildly at the little hedgehog.

After being pricked a few times by the hedgehog, the little rabbit suddenly bit down.

It's even worse now.

The angry little gray dog ​​turned into a pufferfish.

Murong Yue stared blankly at the object in her hand; it was an adorable wooden doll.

Chubby, with a round face, very cute.

The carving is a bit rough, like a half-finished product.

However, Murong Yue liked it very much.

Put the little doll together with the large pearl, citrine, and snake teeth.

My personal belongings are growing.

Night fell, and all was quiet.

Murong Yue suddenly sat up, and the little hedgehog that had been nestled on her blanket was thrown to the ground.

Little hedgehog: ...

According to the rules, such small animals are not allowed to sleep with the emperor. Not to mention animals, even if it were a man, the empress could not spend the night there.

But Murong Yue insists on doing it this way, what can Ahao and Li Xuanji do?

We have no choice but to spoil them.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

The lights inside gradually came on, and Ah-hao quickly came over and asked softly.

"Ah, it's Yan Qinghe."

"General Yan? What happened to him? Your Majesty?" Ah Hao knew nothing.

Murong Yue took the wooden doll from beside the pillow.

She hadn't been asleep either; it was just that a sudden flash of inspiration brought back the dream she'd had last time.

In her dream, also in the imperial palace, she suppressed her disgust and grabbed a snake to scare the young man Yan Qinghe.

Yan Qinghe took the blame for her and was punished with ten strokes of the cane by the Emperor Emeritus.

While lying in bed, Yan Qinghe quietly told her.

He had prepared a small gift for her, which he had just hidden in his clothes so it wouldn't get damaged.

Enraged, she punched Yan Qinghe again on the spot.

Then I asked him, "Where is the stuff?"

Yan Qinghe told him that it was hidden in the tree hole in the ginkgo tree at Haiqing Courtyard.

Although the dream didn't explain why she didn't go to collect the gift later.

But when Yan Qinghe said these words, his eyes shone like stars, even more beautiful than the fireworks on New Year's Eve.

When she thinks back to that dream now, all she can remember are those eyes.

Murong Yue patted her head.

I want to capture this memory on camera.

Seriously, I've got this kind of stuff in my head, ughhhh!

Murong Yue was a little frustrated and turned to look at Ahao, "I'm hungry."

Ah-hao: ...

"What would Your Majesty like to eat?"

The topic changed so quickly that Ah Hao almost couldn't keep up.

"Fermented rice wine and eggs!"

Murong Yue tilted her head and ordered a dish.

ah?

His Majesty used to rarely eat late-night snacks.

After recovering from my illness, I started eating late-night snacks frequently.

Ah Hao was worried that His Majesty would get sick from eating, but after several times, His Majesty was able to eat and sleep well, and apart from his face being a little rounder, he had no discomfort.

Moreover, he was full of energy, so he went with His Majesty.

Is this the only one Your Majesty will eat today?

Ah Hao suspects that his emperor has changed his ways.

"I want to eat everything except this."

Murong Yue added.

Ah-hao: ...

She understood; it meant she would handle the arrangements.

On the third day of the spring hunt, there was a lot of good news.

Which young lady was chosen by which noble family, and which young master caught the eye of which girl?

When two families go back to each other's homes, they prepare to propose marriage.

However, the most famous is still the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion.

Huang Laoba bestowed the position of the third princess of Yue as a servant.

Everyone wanted to know if this servant would rise to power and what the Third Princess would do.

He was, after all, the son of the Marquis of Qingguo, and was somewhat different from other servants.

Upon returning to the palace, Xiao Yuanshuang immediately ordered Huang Laoba to be locked up in Xiao Yuanche's privy.

Anyway, Xiao Yuanche probably won't be coming back, and she won't let him come back either.

Huang Laoba had been starving for two days without a drop of water and was now somewhat exhausted.

The smell of the toilet jolted me awake.

He struggled to break free from the servants' grasp and crawled toward Xiao Yuanshuang.

"Princess, why are you treating me like this?"

Xiao Yuanshuang was about to enter the house.

Cherry stepped forward and kicked him away.

"You're just a servant; don't you even know the basic etiquette of addressing your master as 'slave'?"

"Also, how your master treats you is all your good fortune."
