1101. Chapter 1101 Opportunity
Ye Zhen sat in the carriage for most of the day and slept in the carriage for a long time. She didn't feel tired at this time and just wanted to walk around. As for the two maids sent by Murong Zhan, she didn't know them well enough. The plan is to let them serve her closely. Anyway, they just need to protect her, and they can also protect her by staying outside.
"Your Majesty, that Donghe Xiahe looks like a practicing master." Hongying held Ye Zhen's hand and walked around the Daohua Courtyard. Looking at the two palace maids not far away, she couldn't help but lower her voice. Remind Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen smiled faintly, "If they didn't know martial arts, they wouldn't be here. Don't think too much, there is no problem if they are appointed by the emperor."
Although Hongying didn't understand what the emperor meant by doing this, did he want more people to protect the empress?
"Mother, there is a whole other world behind this yard." Hongying held Ye Zhen's hand and looked at the garden behind the yard in surprise.
This Daohuayuan originally had two gardens, and there was already a large courtyard in front. Unexpectedly, there was another garden behind the bedroom. In the middle of the garden was a bamboo house built with purple bamboo. Hongling stepped forward and opened the door, shouting in surprise. , "It's a hot spring."
"This garden is quite beautiful." Joy flashed in Ye Zhen's eyes. She liked this new yard. Every flower and grass here could be seen as Mo Rongzhan's thought. When did he prepare this yard here? She actually Not at all informed.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor is so kind to you." Hongying said with a smile, "Even if Your Majesty lives in the villa, the Emperor is always thinking of you."
Ye Zhen looked at the garden and felt a sour and sweet feeling in her heart. She didn't know if it was a tacit understanding. She suddenly turned her head and saw Mo Rongzhan walking in from the outside.
Hongying and Hongling looked at each other and quietly exited.
"Are you done?" Ye Zhen asked with a smile, reaching out and hooking his arm.
"I asked Tang Zhen to increase defense around the villa and let him stay here..." Murong Zhan said in a low voice.
Ye Zhen sighed helplessly, "You still need people in Kyoto. If Tang Zhen stays here, you will lose someone who can help you. There are soldiers all around. What else can I do?"
"Yaoyao..." Mo Rongzhan lowered his eyes and frowned at her.
"I'm not under house arrest here. I don't need so many people. If Tang Zhen stays, I have to worry about the people around you who you can't trust." Ye Zhen said angrily, "If you do this again, I will Let’s just go back to the palace with you.”
Mo Rongzhan smiled bitterly, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
"Come with me for a walk." Ye Zhen said with a smile, "When was this Daohuayuan expanded? Why didn't I know at all, and this hot spring...it looks really nice, but it's a pity that I can't go there now. "
"I don't remember when the expansion was completed. Not long after I returned to the palace, I received a memorial saying that the expansion had been completed. It seems to have happened in the past." Mo Rongzhan said.
Ye Zhen hooked his neck, stood on tiptoes and kissed his chin, "I like it very much."
A smile appeared in Mo Rongzhan's deep eyes, "As long as you like it."
"If you don't go back, won't you have to go to court early tomorrow?" Ye Zhen buried her face in his arms, really reluctant to let him go.
"There's no rush, I'll have dinner with you before going back." Murong Zhan's voice was hoarse, and he held her hand and walked forward, "I also want to walk around."
Seeing that he was really not in a hurry to return to the palace, Ye Zhen stopped urging him. It would be nice to spend more time together anyway.
…
…
The Queen has been sent out of the palace!
This news was like a thunder exploding in the palace. As soon as Ye Zhen's carriage left Kyoto, the news could not be concealed and spread throughout the palace. All the concubines couldn't believe it and they all wanted to find out the news from Hu Yue'er. , in their opinion, Hu Yue'er is the person who will be favored by the emperor, and she should know the situation best.
"Your Majesty, Concubine An Hui is outside asking for an audience." Xiangqiao came in and said to Hu Yue'er.
Hu Yue'er said, "Let her go back."
It didn't take much to think about what An Xiuzhen was here for. She was in no mood to deal with it now. Thinking of the empress being sent out of the palace, her heart was already uneasy.
Why...she doesn't understand what the emperor means by doing this. Has the Queen fallen out of favor like this? There is still the emperor's child in her belly. If it is a boy, it will be the emperor's eldest son. Even for the eldest son, the emperor will not let the queen lose her dignity.
Did the Emperor just want to punish the Queen for her jealousy?
Hu Yue'er's heartbeat quickened, she held Xiangqiao's hand, "Xiangqiao, do you think the Queen has angered the Emperor?"
Xiangqiao whispered, "Empress, there must be something that no one else knows about the Emperor and the Queen. Otherwise...otherwise, why did the Emperor leave Yongshou Palace yesterday and never come back? The Queen must have done something."
"She was sent out of Kyoto..." Hu Yue'er took a deep breath, feeling that the news was so unbelievable that she couldn't believe it was true.
"Empress, maybe this is an opportunity given to you by God." Xiangqiao said softly. Without the Queen in the palace, it will undoubtedly remove the big stone in everyone's heart. Can you please the emperor and become another person in the palace? If you are lucky, you will be able to master the skills of each master.
Their empress had just been named Concubine Shu, and she existed in the emperor's heart. She must have had more opportunities than others.
Hu Yue'er stood up and walked to the bedside, looking at the Yongshou Palace looming in the distance, her eyes burst out with bright light, "This is my opportunity..."
The queen is not in the palace, and the emperor will no longer go to Yongshou Palace. Everyone else in the harem will have the opportunity to serve the emperor. This time she will not be as naive as last time. She will make the emperor really care about her.
"Empress, where do you think the Queen will be sent?" Xiangqiao walked to Hu Yue'er holding a stack of melons.
Hu Yue'er smiled and shook her head, "It's hard to say. She should probably go to Chengde Villa. After all, she is still pregnant."
Better never come back! Xiangqiao thought secretly in her heart that this would give their empress a chance to stand out.
"Quietly go and find out if the emperor is in the palace." Hu Yue'er whispered to Xiangqiao.
Xiangqiao nodded lightly, "I'll go and inquire about it now."
Nowadays, everyone in the palace speculates that Concubine Shu is favored. It is not difficult for her to spend some money to find out the news. Many people want to have a good relationship with Xiuhe Palace.
It didn't take long for Hu Yue'er to get the news he wanted.
"Empress, I heard that the emperor has always been in Qianqing Palace, and Eunuch Fu has never left." Xiangqiao whispered in Hu Yue'er's ear.
Hu Yue'er finally showed a real smile, "Don't go out to inquire about any news these days, stay quietly in Xiuhe Palace."
The Emperor will not like a woman who is too pushy, and he will not allow anyone to make trouble to the Queen at this time.
