891. Chapter 891 Questioning

There were only two people in the room, Ye Zhen and Qi Ruoshui.

Qi Ruoshui walked to the window facing the street. The location of this teahouse was perfectly chosen. A faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Miss Qi, please sit down." Ye Zhen sat down and placed the teapot on the three-legged stove.

"It seems that the empress is planning to have a long talk with me." Qi Ruoshui smiled and sat down, "I didn't know she would tell you such a scandal. Yes, Xi'er's life experience is shady, and his illness is also because of... But so what? I have already given birth to him, can I strangle him to death?"

Ye Zhen smiled faintly, "How did Huangfu Jiulan die?"

Qi Ruoshui raised his head and looked at Ye Zhen, "Empress, what exactly do you want to ask?"

"Although Doctor Qi told me about your life experience, she knows nothing about what happened after you left, but I really want to know." Ye Zhen said.

"I don't understand why the empress wants to ask this. Is it of any use to find Ah Chen?" Qi Ruoshui asked calmly. She didn't want to mention Huangfu at all.

Ye Zhen said with a smile, "They are all named Huangfu. Huangfu Jiulan has been in the priest's hall for so many years. Do you think there is no connection?"

"He died not long after I was taken to the priest's hall." Qi Ruoshui said quickly, with a flash of sadness in his eyes.

"How did you die?" Ye Zhen saw emotions in Qi Ruoshui's eyes for the first time. For so long, every time she saw her, her eyes were as calm as water, as if nothing in the world could stir up any ripples in her heart. Same.

Qi Ruoshui narrowed his eyes slightly, "He died of illness."

"Queluan took you away to cure Huangfu Julan, but Huangfu Julan's illness was not a physical illness, but a mental illness." Ye Zhen looked at her seriously and asked.

"Empress, I don't think this question has anything to do with recalling Ah Chen." Qi Ruoshui asked with an ugly face. She didn't want to mention Huangfu Jialan's death. It was the past she least wanted to recall in her life.

Ye Zhen ignored her words and continued, "Huangfu Jiulan felt guilty for doing something wrong because he didn't know you were his daughter, so he couldn't afford to fall ill. What about Que Luan? How did she view this matter? How did she treat you after your father died?"

Qi Ruoshui couldn't stand listening anymore, his face was gloomy and terrifying, and the disguise he tried so hard to maintain was almost broken, "What does this have to do with Que Luan?"

"You said that Que Luan had an adopted daughter, and the current Witch King is her adopted daughter." Ye Zhen said.

"So what?" Qi Ruoshui asked coldly.

Ye Zhen smiled, "Then let's talk about how you escaped from the priest's hall."

Qi Ruoshui raised her eyes and looked at Ye Zhen indifferently. From the moment she stepped into Kyoto, many things happened under her arrangement, including making Ye Zhen doubt her appearance, and even Qi Jin would tell them Her life experience was within her expectations, and she had never taken this queen seriously. In her opinion, this queen just had a good appearance.

However, today she realized that Ye Zhen knew too much, more than she wanted to reveal.

"It's definitely not easy to escape from the priest's hall. Not only did you escape, but you also lived silently for more than ten years somewhere. And it just so happened that you appeared when Mr. Huangfu was captured by the people from the priest's hall. You should not have seen him for many years. Have you met Mr. Huangfu?" Ye Zhen asked with a smile.

Qi Ruoshui looked at her coldly, "My dear, you have been questioning me since I sat down just now. So, what are you suspecting? Huangfuchen was taken away by me, and I ran to Kyoto in a state of confusion. Throw yourself into a trap, what did I do to make you doubt me like this?"

"Didn't everything you do mean to make me doubt you?" Ye Zhen smiled faintly, "You probably didn't see the note left by Mr. Huangfu."

Qi Ruoshui's face darkened. After she took Huangfu Chen away, she did not look at what clues he would leave behind, because it was not necessary. It was in Qi State, even if someone later discovered that Huangfu Chen was missing and found that place. By that time, all the clues had disappeared.

"You know he left clues... so you have been sending secret guards to follow him?" Qi Ruoshui asked with a frown.

Ye Zhen didn't say anything. The secret guard sent by Merong Zhan had been thrown away by Huangfu Chen, otherwise they wouldn't have found only the note he left when they found him.

"It seems that your secret guards are not that powerful." Seeing that Ye Zhen didn't say anything, Qi Ruoshui chuckled, "Then, since the empress has doubted me, it must be more than just these, what else is there for you? What’s the reason for doubting me?”

Ye Zhen said softly, "If Mr. Huangfu wasn't a very familiar person, it would be impossible to know where he is, and it would be impossible to approach him and take him away. There are only you and Mr. Shan. You can bring Mr. Shan here too." Mr. Huangfu is her savior. It is natural for her to come back to Kyoto to tell me the news for Mr. Huangfu. Ye Yaoyao also came back to find you, right?"

Qi Ruoshui raised her eyes and looked at Ye Zhen, "The Queen has been doubting me for so long but has not been sure yet. Why am I so sure today?"

"Because I can't think of any woman who can be so cruel to hurt her own child. Probably... the people from the priest's hall are more unusual." Ye Zhen looked at Qi Ruoshui coldly, "It seems that Qi Luan will treat you like this My adopted daughter is well trained.”

"The Queen is so smart." Qi Ruoshui chuckled. It seemed that there was no point in pretending anymore, "What are you going to do now?"

"Why don't the Witch King tell me why you took Mr. Huangfu away?" Ye Zhen asked quietly.

Qi Ruoshui raised her lips and smiled, squinting at Ye Zhen charmingly, "I heard that in addition to the Emperor of Jin Kingdom, Huangfu Chen is also passionate about you. I have always wanted to know what kind of woman you, Lu Yaoyao, are."

Ye Zhen looked at her with cold eyes, "Mr. Huangfu is my master."

"Master?" Qi Ruoshui covered his mouth and smiled, "Master falls in love with his apprentice, what's the big deal."

"Compared to you?" Ye Zhen asked lightly.

Qi Ruoshui's face turned cold.

Ye Zhen continued, "Control the royal power of Xiliang, capture Mr. Huangfu, and start a war between Xiliang and Jin. King Wu, what do you want to do?"

"Why don't you ask the Queen to go to the priest's hall? Then you will know everything, right?" Qi Ruoshui said.

Hearing what Qi Ruoshui said, Ye Zhen also understood the reason why she came to Kyoto in person, "It's really hard work for the Witch King to come and invite me to the priest's hall in person."

"It's not all for you." Qi Ruoshui said with a smile, "I still want to take back my son. After all, he was born by me, so I have to keep him with me."
