849. Chapter 849 Serving
Ye Zhen always thought that Qianxue should be imprisoned in the Overwatch Council or the Secret Guard. She did not expect to see her in the palace. However, listening to Qianxue, Mo Rongzhan did not imprison her here just to make her speak out. Could it be that the truth about killing Wan Yan Xi was for something else?
"The emperor has his own reasons for imprisoning you here." Ye Zhen said lightly. Although she was curious about why a palace maid became a killer, she believed that Mo Rongzhan would ask.
Qianxue covered her mouth and smiled, "I'm afraid the Queen only knows one thing but not the other."
"What do you think I need to know?" Ye Zhen asked calmly.
"Aren't you curious why the emperor didn't imprison me outside the palace, but locked me here, and let the palace maids and eunuchs serve me like they serve their masters every day?" Qianxue asked with a sneer.
Ye Zhen heard the provocative meaning in Qianxue's words, and she smiled faintly, "So what? Being locked up in this place, which is not much better than the cold palace, and there are secret guards guarding the outside, how do you look like a master?"
Seeing that Ye Zhen was not fooled at all, Qianxue was secretly annoyed. She sneered, "I thought the emperor really loved you so much, but it turns out it's nothing more than that. You don't even know who I am and why I'm here. Maybe later When I go out in the future...you will realize how stupid you are."
"If you think that you have served the emperor and helped the emperor and you can think that you are different, then I really want to know what kind of opportunities you will have when you go out in the future." Ye Zhen said softly.
Murong Zhan actually told Lu Yaoyao his identity? It seems that as rumored, Lu Yaoyao is different in Mo Rongzhan's mind. He never expected that the young man who was cold and ruthless back then and was not even willing to touch the body of a palace maid would be so obsessed with a woman today.
Qianxue couldn't tell what she was feeling, she just didn't want to see Lu Yaoyao looking so sure and confident.
"How do you think I serve the emperor...?" Qianxue chuckled softly, looking at Ye Zhen with deep mockery in her eyes.
Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Qian Xue calmly.
"I wonder if the Queen has ever heard of a training maid?" Qianxue asked with a smile, "Every prince in the palace will arrange a training maid when he is twelve years old to teach him how to become an adult. The so-called adult, the queen Do you understand what it means?"
If Lu Yaoyao grew up in a border town, she would naturally not understand what Qian Xue's words meant, but Ye Zhen, who grew up in Ye's family and was once married to the King of Qin's Princess Qin, would not understand what this meant.
"You are King Ke's maid!" Ye Zhen was surprised in her heart, but her face was calm. She didn't believe that Mo Rongzhan actually taught the maids. He said... said that there was no other woman except Lu Shuang'er.
Qianxue smiled and said, "This is the path that every prince must go through. At that time, the emperor was not valued by the late emperor in the palace. The maid chosen by his aunt had a foul smell and was extremely ugly. King Ke loved his younger brother. Therefore, I am given to the Emperor and the Empress. Although I am not as beautiful as you, and I am not as favored as you are now, but every man has feelings for his first woman, what do you think?"
Ye Zhen's face changed slightly, and she took a deep breath, "Do you think the emperor imprisoned you here because he missed his old relationship?"
"The reason is not important. What is important is, Queen, what do you think?" Qianxue laughed softly.
"Yaoyao." Mo Rongzhan rushed over when he learned that Ye Zhen had found Qianxue. He didn't worry about anything else. He was just afraid that his jealous little boy would have random thoughts and ignore him for a few days, and he would lose more than he gained.
Hearing Mo Rongzhan's voice, Ye Zhen froze and did not turn around. He came so fast.
Are you afraid that she will know Qianxue's existence?
Qianxue bowed slightly and saluted, "I have seen the emperor."
Mo Rongzhan ignored Qianxue and just walked to Ye Zhen. He lowered his eyes and saw her pale face, and was shocked, "Yaoyao, why are you here?"
"Oh." Ye Zhen's clear eyes trembled slightly and she looked up at him, "I came here accidentally and was curious..."
Even the concubines came out, I must be feeling angry! Mo Rongzhan held her little hand and said, "I will take you back."
Ye Zhen nodded gently, "Okay."
"Your Majesty, if you want the answer from me, I can tell you." Qianxue stopped Mo Rongzhan, "But, I don't know what you can give me."
Murong Zhan felt Ye Zhen trying to break away from his hand, so he squeezed it hard, looked back at Qian Xue coldly, and told Eunuch Fu, "Take her to Qianqing Palace."
Qianxue gave a faint smile. She couldn't leave the palace anyway. If she could drive a wedge between the emperor and the queen, then she could make up for it.
"Aren't you going to Cining Palace? Why are you here?" Mo Rongzhan led Ye Zhen and slowly walked back to Huaqing Palace, keeping his eyes on her.
Ye Zhen's mind was confused. She knew she shouldn't believe Qianxue's words. What about teaching a palace maid? Even if Mo Rongzhan had once taught a palace maid, would he never forget her?
Apart from her, is he still thinking about another woman?
"Yaoyao?" Mo Rongzhan stopped and held her gently in his arms, "Did Qianxue tell you something?"
Ye Zhen raised her eyes to look at him and asked softly, "What does the emperor think Qianxue will say to me?"
"I don't know. There is a reason why I kept her in the palace, but I haven't found out the truth yet, so I didn't tell you." Murong Zhan said in a low voice.
"What truth?" Ye Zhen asked seriously. What truth was so important that he didn't reveal a word to her.
Murong Zhan looked at her silently for a while, "I want to know why Qianxue became a killer. This matter is very important."
"Because Qianxue is your former palace maid, is her matter important?" Ye Zhen asked with a slight smile.
"It's true that she was my former palace maid. I kept her in the palace because of our past friendship. She helped me a lot." Moreover, she was Murong Ke's former personal palace maid. This was why he kept her in the palace. The reasons in the palace.
Ye Zhen was pierced by the words about his past friendship, "Then how does the emperor plan to repay her for her help to you in the past?"
Mo Rongzhan frowned, "Yaoyao, don't get me wrong, I just want to know something from her mouth."
"I understand." Ye Zhen nodded gently. Since he didn't want to say it, there was no point in asking her any more, "She is still waiting for you in Qianqing Palace. Go quickly. Maybe we will know the truth you want. .”
"I will come and explain to you tonight." Murong Zhan whispered.
