Outside the Imperial Palace, two Ferghana Horses galloped forward, one in front and one behind. On the horses were two men, the former wore a black robe and the latter was clothed in plain clothes.
"Your Highness, please forgive this subordinate's stupidity. Why did you imprison the Emperor and also help the Emperor take back the command medallion of the Crescent Moon Embroidered Uniform Guard?" Aren't you … " He had followed the prince for many years, and a tacit understanding had developed between him and the prince. No matter what the prince did, he could act according to the circumstances, but ever since the emperor was awoken by the assassination, the prince seemed to have become a completely different person.
Yan Mo Chen slowed down his horse's speed and walked beside Yan Mu. Although Yan Mu appeared to be his secret guard, he seemed more like a good friend to Yan Mo Chen.
"Meng Shi will only listen to this king." Yan Mo Chen seemed to be in a good mood as he smiled slowly.
Yan Mu was suddenly enlightened. So that was the case!
Yan Mo Chen raised his brow and pulled the reins tightly. He shouted, "Jia!" As the horses galloped on, the two figures gradually disappeared in the direction of the Residence of Regent.
Royal Garden.
The corners of Joe's lips were still slightly bent, and his face was brimming with a faint smile.
"Why is the emperor so happy?" Ji Mingyuan turned his head to take a look, and couldn't help but laugh.
"Your farce today was done well!" Qiao Qiao let out a loud laugh. If Ji Mingyuan had not come today, she would not have known how she would have been able to take matters into her own hands when Yan Mo Chen had fallen out with her.
"Chenqie isn't acting this time. I'm afraid that she misses the Emperor too much, which is why she ran to the throne room and wanted to see the Emperor." Ji Mingyuan had a serious expression on his face.
"Alright." Qiao Qiao still waved her hand. Even though she knew that Ji Mingyuan's words carried implications, she wasn't in the mood to discuss about the previous debauchery with him. This was because she suddenly realized that fighting in the palace was much more fun than stealing from a dog!
Eh? If her master knew that she called robbing another way as a godly thief, a thief or a dog, would he die from a mouthful of blood in his chest?
Joe continued to laugh dryly. This title could not be revealed to his master.
"Your majesty." Eunuch Gao bent forward and whispered into Qiao Qiao's ear, "Today, I found Xi Zhaoyi's sudden death in Warm Sun Academy."
"Xi Zhaoyi has always been in bad health. Now that such a thing has happened, aiya …" Qiao Qiao pretended to sigh. "Send someone to the Xi Residence to notify them. Send them to deliver more silver taels to relieve the Grand Commandant Xi."
"Yes." Eunuch Gao nodded in understanding before retreating.
She could not help but feel a little more suspicious of the technique. She could not understand, since he had killed so many people in the harem without wasting any effort to blow them away, why in the world did he want to join hands with the harem emperor like her? With his abilities, it would only be a little troublesome if he wanted to investigate Prime Minister Luo, but it was definitely not an impossible task.
Although he was filled with suspicion towards the technique, the moment that Xi Xiangyang died, the show would begin slowly. Han Yufeng had always been Ji Mingyuan's disguise, but fortunately, Minister Han did not know the truth and mistakenly believed that she had sent Han Yufeng out of the palace.
"My beloved concubine, Xi Shi, is also grieving for such a thing. It would be inconvenient for me to accompany you right now. Please go back first." Qiao Qiao ordered Ji Mingyuan, who was standing beside her, to leave.
"Why do you have to be so mysterious in front of me?" Ji Mingyuan smiled.
"What do you mean?" Qiao Yifan knew the answer, but he didn't believe that Ji Mingyuan would be able to figure it out.
"What do I mean? You can't be clearer than that. I already said that I'm here to help you, so you don't need to be so cautious against me." Ji Mingyuan was clearly unhappy.
Qiao Qiao was still slightly startled. Perhaps it was because of the woman's sixth sense, but she had always felt that this Ji Mingyuan did not have any ill intentions towards her. However, she could not completely trust him at this point in time.
After a brief pause, she lifted her foot and walked forward, ignoring Ji Mingyuan's words.
Many years later, when she found out that Ji Mingyuan and she were already so irrevocable, she definitely wouldn't be as calm as she was now.
Of course, this was all in the future.
Qiao Qiao continued to walk from the imperial garden back to the palace. She needed to make some preparations. Tonight, she would pay a visit to Xi Mansion. She wanted to see what kind of activity that Grand Commandant would cause with the death of Xi Xiangyang.
"Your majesty, Prime Minister Luo's daughter requests to see your majesty." At the entrance of the palace, a small palace maid reported.
Qiao Qiao continued to stop what she was doing and looked on with a frown. Ever since the previous time, Qiao Qiao had asked the palace maid to act out a show where she wanted to fight with Luo Qingqing for the position of regent, she had thought that this little girl would definitely hate her, and would never want to see her again. She had no idea what was so special about her coming to the palace.
However, from start to finish, Qiao Qiao had not connected the matter of the exterminating palace assassins poisoning her with Luo Qingqing. Qiao Qiao had placed the blame on Xi Xiangyang as well.
"Announce!" Joe ordered.
Before long, Luo Qingqing slowly entered the palace hall, dressed in a thin, dark green robe.
"Sister-in-law of the emperor!" Luo Qingqing shouted excitedly when she saw Qiao Qiao.
"Qingqing, come." Qiao Qiao still waved her hand. She knew that this little girl was carefree and her heart was big. It was not excessive to be so passionate. However, whether this passion was genuine or fake, she would know after a try.
"Sister-in-law of the emperor. That day, Qing Qing really believed in the slanderous words of others and thought that she wanted to take the Regent as her consort. Qing Qing even left the palace in anger, specifically to apologise to the emperor's sister-in-law." Luo Qingqing had an innocent look on her face as she slightly blamed herself.
"Look at what you're saying, what's the punishment? But to take the Regent as his consort? "Yes, that's exactly what I was thinking!" Joe did not flinch.
Luo Qingqing's pupils constricted and a flash of purple light passed through her face. She had purposely come here to atone for her crimes, wanting to stay in the Imperial Palace and complete her plan with Hua Bai Ning. She hadn't thought that Qiao still that slut would be so generous as to admit such an ugly thing! How shameless!
Qiao Qiao continued to smile faintly. It seemed that the hatred this little girl held towards him was still very deep. Although she was extremely patient this time, her happy and furious attitude would not be able to change.
"In that case, Qingqing will no longer be the one to wrest away others' love. Perhaps Qingqing and Prince are fated to be fated to be fated together." Luo Qingqing was getting more and more depressed. Her delicate face was also full of relief, letting go of a bit of unwillingness.
Qiao Qiao continued to smile without speaking. She silently waited for her to finish what she wanted to do. She predicted that this little girl must have come prepared this time.
"Sister-in-law of the emperor, father gave Qingqing a few days' imprisonment. Qingqing came here secretly to visit you today. Qingqing has a presumptuous request for you." Luo Qingqing saw that Qiao Qiao still did not respond, so she raised her head and said pitifully.
"It's fine if you say so." Joe still knew.
"Qing Qing hopes that the emperor's sister-in-law can take her in for a few days. After a few days when father's anger is gone, Qing Qing will return to apologize." Luo Qingqing lowered her head in embarrassment.
"Why not? The palace is naturally a clean home." Joe continued to smile.
"Thank you, sister-in-law." Luo Qingqing bowed, a crafty look in her eyes.
