Concubine Rong, who was upstairs, jumped in shock. She didn't understand why the emperor would come, but when she thought again, she understood why.
Rong Fei walked downstairs with Leng Qiyue, and saw Dongfang Haotian and a proud face, Die Fei, at the door.
"Chenqie pays her respects to Your Imperial Majesty." The two of them said in unison.
Dongfang Haotian snorted and said: "The Sunrise Pavilion is a forbidden area. Why did the two of you barge in?"
Leng Qiyue frowned and was about to speak when Rong Fei pulled at her secretly and smiled, "Reporting to the emperor, chenqie had invited sister butterfly Fei and elder sister Leng to travel together in the garden. However, when we arrived here, the gates were opened and we couldn't help but come in to take a look. "Big sister saw the guqin from upstairs and liked it so much that she begged Big sister for a song to be played. Big sister's singing was so beautiful that even chenqie was mesmerized by it. In the end, even the emperor didn't notice."
Rong Fei's words were done in an orderly manner, and all the blame was placed on her.
She retorted, "No, Your Majesty, chenqie didn't come to the Sunset Pavilion."
Dongfang Haotian angrily said: "Shut up! How did you know they were here when you didn't come to the Sunset Pavilion?"
With a single word, Die Fei was left speechless. This time, she had really smashed her own foot with a rock.
Dongfang Haotian said, "Forget it. Since you've committed your first offense, go back to your palaces and reflect on it." With that, he flung his sleeves and walked out.
"Respectfully sending off your majesty." The girls said in unison.
After Dongfang Haotian left, Consort Rong sneered and said: "Butterfly Consort, you are only anxious for the world to become chaotic, aren't you?"
Die Fei harrumphed and left with the palace maid.
Leng Qiyue smiled and said, "Little sister, it's easy to put it in words. You're really awesome!"
Rong Fei said, "This is nothing. I've seen more powerful moves before, but aren't I still standing here?"
Leng Qiyue nodded. Since Rong Fei wanted to be on good terms with him, there was no need for him to be hypocritical, so she might as well make things clear. Little sister, big sister, say something from the bottom of your heart. The phoenix talisman is controlled by my sister, so my sister is very much at ease. The emperor once proposed to give the phoenix talisman to me, but I feel that my sister should take care of the harem matters. To be honest, I'm not interested in power. Right now, I only want to help the emperor share his worries. I really don't want to get involved in the quarreling of the harem.
The emperor ascended the throne not long ago, his foundation was not stable yet. If the emperor couldn't even preserve the throne, then wouldn't all the struggles in the harem be for nothing? Right now, the key was not to see who had the ability to pull the emperor into their embrace, but to help the emperor consolidate his foundation.
Every day, the Emperor would be troubled by matters of the nation. When he returned to the imperial harem, the most he wanted to do was find someone to talk to.
It is said that the Emperor is the Son of the True Dragon, but at this moment, he is a man, not a deity. We should not treat him as an Emperor, but as our husband.
Although my words are not very pleasant to hear, they are from the bottom of my heart. "
After she finished speaking, Leng Qiyue looked at Rong Fei.
Rong Fei's expression was one of surprise. She didn't think that Leng Qiyue would say something like this. She smiled, a smile of relief. Yes, big sister is right, we were wrong. I've always been thinking about how to pull the emperor into my own palace, but I never thought about how the emperor would feel. I understand now. Thank you for your heartfelt words. I've received your teachings. "
Leng Qiyue nodded, since she had made things clear, the two of them became more intimate. Rong Fei smiled and said, "Elder sister, I suddenly feel that I have never felt so relaxed before. Why is that so?"
Leng Qiyue thought for a moment before saying, "It's probably because we reached a consensus."
Rong Fei nodded, "Yes, I think so too. Our current goal is all for the emperor's own good, so our efforts shouldn't be wasted on jealousy."
"That's right. Although working with a husband is not the best, but if our husband falls, then what should we do? It would be better to unite and face the outside world together. "
"That's right, that's right, hehe …" Rong Fei agreed.
The two of them walked through a grove of trees. Die Fei walked out from behind the bush and said angrily, "A pair of bitches, watch how I'll take care of you. The harem doesn't have true love, which hasn't changed in years. I'd like to see how deep your sisterhood goes."
When Leng Qiyue and Rong Fei arrived at the fork in the road, they parted ways and returned to their respective palaces.
A few days later, after Dongfang Haotian had finished with his affairs, he received a message from Bai Lan. The empress dowager had already arrived at Nine Mooks Town and was secretly investigating the matter of the treasure. He decided to find Leng Qiyue and see if there was any way to get the treasure before the Empress Dowager.
When Dongfang Haotian entered the Moonlight Palace, he saw a lazy scene. The palace maids and eunuchs were all yawning and talking in groups of twos and threes.
Little Shun Zi was quite quick-witted. When he first saw Dongfang Haotian, he quickly stepped forward and said, "Your servant greets Your Majesty."
The rest of the palace maids and eunuchs quickly kneeled on the ground.
Dongfang Haotian snorted: "What? Didn't the imperial concubine treat you well? I let you guys do things, but you guys are just slacking off here. "
Little Shun Zi quickly explained, "To return to the emperor, the imperial concubine suddenly wanted to eat barbecue last night, and she forbade servants to go to the imperial kitchens to instruct her. She just set up a rack in the backyard. The esteemed imperial concubine had played with her servants all night, which was why she looked so tired today. "
"Oh? "You may leave. We have matters to discuss with the imperial concubine, so you're not allowed to disturb us."
"Understood." The palace maids and eunuchs were all too eager to return to rest, so they dispersed upon hearing this.
Dongfang Haotian walked into the inner room. Sure enough, Han Liu and Xiaodie were sitting at the table, napping. He didn't disturb them and went straight into the inner room. Leng Qiyue slept soundly on the bed.
Dongfang Haotian tenderly smiled and took off his outer clothes to lie down on the bed. He gently embraced Leng Qiyue in his arms. Originally, he only wanted to take a nap, but in the end he fell asleep.
At the beginning of the moonlight, when Dede walked in, Han Liu immediately went up to him and said, "Why is Eunuch De here?"
"Quickly, ask the emperor. Something big has happened!"
Han Liu was confused. "When did the emperor arrive?"
"Why, you don't know that the Emperor came when he was fighting young?"
Han Liu and Xiao Die looked at each other. They knew they were napping, but not even the Emperor knew they were napping.
Han Liu said, "Eunuch De, please wait for a while. I'll go take a look."
She walked into the inner room and saw that Dongfang Haotian was sleeping soundly with Leng Qiyue in his arms. She thought for a moment and reached out her hand to touch Leng Qiyue's arm.
Leng Qiyue did not have much sleep left, so she opened her eyes and asked in a daze, "What's wrong? It's dark now? "
Han Liu nodded. "Eunuch De came. He came to find the emperor, saying something big has happened."
"Your majesty?" "Leng Qiyue was still in a daze." Eh? Why are you here? " She finally saw Dongfang Haotian.
