"Why is my royal sister-in-law standing here crying?" Yu Tianqi's voice suddenly sounded by his ear.
Yu Yan buried her face in the rabbit's back for a while, before hugging the rabbit tightly. With her long eyelashes hanging, he said softly, "I feel sad to reply to the emperor."
"For Yun Qin?" The corner of Yu Tianqi's lips curled up as he lifted his lower jaw with his long fingers.
"I don't dare." Yu Yan lifted her eyes slightly, her long eyelashes trembling. Her cheeks that were like fine white porcelain were stained with tears, adding a bit of weakness that made people feel tender affection for her.
Yu Tianqi laughed, his gaze landing on the birthmark on her forehead, he then said indifferently: "My royal sister-in-law is so pitiful, I want to protect you, my royal sister, do you want to follow me into the palace?"
"Huh?" Yu Yan was shocked, she forgot about her act and raised her head, staring at Yu Tianqi?
Yu Tianqi's smile grew wider as he said in a low voice, "The empress dowager said that you were intelligent and wanted you to enter the palace to accompany her."
It gave her a fright … Yu Yan lowered her long eyelashes again, and Soo Soo said angrily: "I am too tough, I am afraid I will hurt Feng An."
"I, the Lone King, will let you … "Keke her …" He leaned over and whispered in her ear.
Yu Yan suddenly shivered, she had forgotten to put on an act, she quickly raised her head and knocked into Yu Tianqi's lower jaw, "What did you say?"
"Ha …" Yu Tianqi laughed, his long fingers slowly caressing her cheeks, before resting on her tightly wrapped neck, casually speaking: "royal sister-in-law, you are very interesting, what does he call you? Little Cyan Fish? "
Yu Yan frowned and retreated a few steps before turning around. She said unhappily, "Your Majesty, it's the best. I'm the King Xiao's Concubine, the Emperor's sister-in-law."
"So what? Under the heavens, could it be that they are kings? " The meaning behind his smile was obvious.
Yu Yan swept a glance at him and immediately left.
The empress dowager had fought her way up all those years ago, and Imperial Concubine Yi Lin, the mother of the King Xiao, had died in the hands of the empress dowager. The two of them were cousins, but the empress dowager was the leader of the empress dowager, and Yu Tianqi's concubines were engaged in a tragic battle. She didn't eat too much!
"Little Qing Yu, if Zhen lets you be his concubine, will you be able to escape?"
He was still laughing behind her.
Damn it! Yu Yan only wanted to hide in the market and quietly do what she wanted to do. Did lightning strike on your head? She was getting hot with her for no reason!
She couldn't help but become furious. Without even looking back, she hatefully said, "Your majesty is very respectful, I'm your sister-in-law by blood. If Your Majesty destroys my reputation, then Your Highness will make sure the world finds out what Your Majesty is doing. Even if it means death, I'm not afraid."
Cold sweat poured out of her pores. She slowly turned her head and saw a huge snake with the thickness of a wrist hanging down from a tree. It was staring at her with its dark eyes, its green tongue almost reaching her face.
What the hell! He should have flipped through the calendar last night when he went out. The bad things happened one after another!
She stood still, not daring to move.
Suddenly, the little rabbit in her arms moved, the poisonous snake suddenly attacked, Yu Yan's whole body of hot blood rushed to his feet.
A sharp sound pierced through the snake's head. The stench of blood flew towards its face, obscuring her vision. A black figure flashed behind the tree. The black metal mask on his face only had dark pupils.
"Halt …" Yu Tianqi pounced over from the side and used his bow to shoot.
The black-clothed man moved like an eagle, dodging the three arrows, and then looked at Yu Yan, flying swiftly through the dense forest.
Yu Tianqi's archery skills were superb, his longbow shot out three arrows at the same time, one of the arrows hit his clothes, nailing a corner of the cloth onto the tree. He strode over, pulled out the arrow, and grabbed the sleeve.
It was a heavily woven piece of coarse satin with a snow-colored cloud leopard embroidered on the sleeve. This kind of cloth was popular among the nobles of Houqing Kingdom, their archenemies. Clouded Leopard was an auspicious and sacred object of the Tianmo Kingdom. Snow-colored Cloud Leopard was a fierce beast worshipped by the royal family and was used as an accessory by the royal family.
But Tianmo Kingdom nobles would not openly attack, and the weirdness caused Yu Tianqi to furrow his thick eyebrows.
"You know him?" He turned his head, and his gaze landed on Yu Yan's face.
Yu Yan shook her head. Then, she looked at the snake that was hit by the arrow again.
"Your Majesty, this is Tianmo Kingdom's Solitary Falcon." The guards hurried over, pulled out the arrows from the snake's body, and held them before his eyes.
"Tianmo Kingdom." Yu Tianqi stared at the arrow coldly, turned and left.
"Your majesty." Yun Qin also rushed over, calling him Yu Tianqi, but looking at him. She was wiping the blood from his face with his sleeve.
"Return to the palace." Yu Tianqi did not seem to be in the mood to fight archery anymore. He did not even bother to discuss anything with Yun Qin and rode away.
Yun Qin got on his horse and turned to look at Yu Yan.
She was still holding the rabbit, standing under the tree, quietly watching him.
"Imperial Aunt should go back and prepare to enter the palace tomorrow to accompany the empress dowager."
Yu Tianqi's voice came from the front, neither hot nor cold, neither angry nor happy.
Yu Yan suddenly felt a headache, what should she do? She still had to go to school tomorrow! The Xu family's wife was still hoping that she would seek justice for her dead husband, eliminating the rich and evil merchants that sold fake medicines.
"Hey, can you do it the day after tomorrow?" Without thinking, she raised her hand to her mouth and shouted towards Yu Tianqi's back.
Everyone looked at her, and only then did she realize that she had once again forgotten her part! It was all because of that man last night, who had disturbed her calm self. There was also Yun Qin, who came back as soon as he said he would …
Her mind was in a mess, her mind was completely blank. Someone in front returned with a horse, cupped their fist, and said in a low voice: "King Xiao's Consort, the Emperor said no."
Pui … She furiously cursed in her heart, not daring to linger any longer. She hurriedly went to find a lawyer she knew to help Mrs. Xu to continue this lawsuit, so as to transfer the evidence to that lawyer.
When she busied herself back in the evening, Nian En and Nian An came over and asked her questions.
"A decree came from the palace allowing the Empress to enter the palace tomorrow." Nian En pointed to the imperial edict on the table. It was hard to worry about.
"Let's go in, let's go in, what's so amazing about that." Yu Yan was annoyed again, she grabbed the imperial edict and threw it on the ground.
Nian An quickly picked it up, respectfully took it back to the shelf behind the censer and ran over to close the door.
"Even if the Empress were to lose her temper, she can't do it for this reason." Nian En advised her as she went to pack her things.
Yu Yan slowly sat down, her fingers caressing the oracular thoughts. When Yun Qin returned, the empress dowager summoned her into the palace. What was her intention? Could it be because of Princess Jing Ge?
When she woke up early in the morning, Yu Yan felt that something was wrong. Her face was extremely itchy, and after grabbing a few times, she lifted the veil. Nian An, who was serving him at the side exclaimed in shock, and the copper pot in her hand fell to the ground with a crash.
"Esteemed Empress, your face …"
When Nian En heard her voice, she rushed over. When she saw her appearance, she was also shocked. Yu Yan jumped down and quickly went to the bronze mirror to take a look. There were quite a few red spots on her face, but with a grab from her, there were a few more bloody marks on her fingernails.
"What should we do, Empress?" Nian An said with a sullen face.
