The two of them discussed for a while. Seeing that it was getting late, Wen Fuchen left early, even though he was pained by Xue Mier's misfortune, but Xue Mier was still Qin Shuo's concubine after all.

After lying on the bed for a whole day, all of the people who came to visit were stopped by Zhi Lan and Qin Shuo. Finally, with the permission of the imperial physician, Hu Xiao was so happy that she wanted to kneel down in front of the imperial physician.

It was because of Zhi Lan and Qin Shuo's nervousness that Hu Xiao thought that she had not seen anyone for a long time.

Once she was able to jump off the bed, Hu Xiao could not wait and walked towards Mr Mo Zhu's residence. It had already been a few days, and the things would probably be ready.

"Oh my god, finally let me go out, Zhi Lan you don't know, if you don't let me out, I'm afraid I won't be myself."

Maybe he just died in bed.

Hu Xiao had always felt that the reason why she had been here for so long was entirely because Qin Shuo and Zhi Lan did not want him to stay at home.

"Empress, you should let go of that thought in your heart. If this servant and His Majesty were to obstruct Empress, I believe that Empress might not even be able to get out of bed by now."

It was not that Zhi Lan was stopping him, but rather, as long as Hu Xiao was allowed to go out, he would definitely jump up and down. It would be weird if her wounds were to recover and she had been in her room for such a long time, so Hu Xiao probably would not think about it anymore.

"Zhi Lan."

Hu Xiao naturally knew what Zhi Lan wanted to say, but sshe also didn't feel the need to do so. After all, according to Hu Xiao's own thoughts, they were also like this, but even so, he was unwilling to just be locked up for a few days!

After that, she no longer cared about Zhi Lan's teachings behind her as she hastily ran forward, afraid that she would be caught by Zhi Lan and taken back.

On the other hand, Mo Zhu's courtyard was unexpectedly bustling with activity. There were people who should have been there, but not a single one should have been there.

"What, the two of you are together again?"

When Hu Xiao entered the door, she saw the few people she was most familiar with sitting together with.

Those few people were talking passionately just now, but when they heard Hu Xiao, they felt as if they were forbidden from speaking. All of them turned to look at Hu Xiao who was at the entrance.

"Greetings Empress."

"Is this great news from Empress?"

After a simple bow, Yin Fufeng asked curiously.

Earlier, when he heard that Hu Xiao had fainted from her injuries, Yin Fufeng anxiously went over to see what exactly this situation was, but he was blocked by Qin Shuo several times in a row, and every time, Yin Fufeng would immediately give up, because after Hu Xiao herself woke up, she would definitely come looking for him.

"Yeah, much better. I've troubled you guys for the past few days."

After all, she knew that Yin Fufeng and Zhao Qiyan would come here every single time, but no matter what, she could not see them.

"It doesn't matter. The safety of my Phoenix Body is the most important thing."

Yin Fufeng replied with a smile, but his tone was filled with ridicule.

Seeing that the ingot by her side was about to cook, Hu Xiao could not continue chatting with the few of them, and walked towards the ingot.

"Yuanbao, get out of the way. Big Sister will show you what she can do!"

Without waiting for the ingot to react, he forcefully pushed the ingot away.

"Empress! "You will?"

Yuanbao looked at Hu Xiao suspiciously. After all, no matter how one looked at it, Hu Xiao was someone who couldn't even touch the Yang Spring Water.

Even Zhi Lan had a tragic look on her face, after all, she had never seen Hu Xiao cook before. However, Zhi Lan herself knew that Hu Xiao was already tired of it and had let him be willful once, so she reckoned that Hu Xiao would probably give the stove to Yuanbao after she was satisfied, and would at least be able to keep the remaining ingredients.

The few of them stopped what they were doing and stood in front of Hu Xiao, looking at him. After all, with Hu Xiao's identity, she did not need to cook, maybe Hu Xiao had really done well.

Slowly, their initial suspicion turned into disbelief.

When the dishes were served from the wok, they were both delicious and delicious. Just thinking about how good the dishes looked was already, it would be an excellent idea.

"Empress is truly proficient in everything. I never expected that this cooking method would be so excellent."

As he tasted the food Hu Xiao cooked, Yin Fufeng couldn't help but praise it.

"Hur hur, that's only natural. I've once taken a cooking lesson!"

"… …"

Ye Zichen hurriedly covered his mouth. She seemed to have said something amazing just now.

"Haha, I secretly learned it from a chef at South Yue for a few days, hehe."

Hu Xiao said, and then the few of them started to react, but they did not notice Zhi Lan's suspicious expression.

In the past, Hu Xiao would never be willing to enter the kitchen, why would she still learn culinary arts from the imperial physicians? There were too many flaws in Hu Xiao's words, but when she thought about how Hu Xiao had once disappeared for a period of time, she realized that it was possible that she had learnt it at that time, but, looking at Hu Xiao who spoke so confidently, Zhi Lan felt that it didn't seem right.

Although Zhi Lan had covered up her intentions well, Hu Xiao had still caught it, and felt a bit guilty. After all, looking at how Zhi Lan took care of him, and asking more or less, Zhi Lan seemed to be following him around, as for the flaws in her words just now, Hu Xiao herself was clear, but she did not panic.

After all, he was a soul here, and the main body was Hu Xiao. Even if she suspected, she wouldn't be able to find any evidence.

Under the atmosphere of endless praises, the bottom of the plate was quickly revealed.

"Empress, I've heard that all of the children in your Imperial Consort Xue's womb seem to have such reasons …"

Mo Zhu was silent for a long time. After a moment of hesitation, he asked the question that was on his mind.

Once Mo Zhu's words came out, the lively scene became somewhat quiet and awkward for a moment. However, Yin Fufeng and Zhao Qiyan were also extremely curious about the cause of this matter.

"What if I say that this has nothing to do with me?"

Looking at the three people who were looking at him quietly, Hu Xiao said indifferently, I knew that they would ask me about this.

"Since Empress has already said so, I guess it has nothing to do with Empress anymore."

Yin Fufeng spoke slowly, but the meaning behind his words made Hu Xiao's eyes fill up with tears. Even if the rest of the people did not speak, Hu Xiao knew that the few of them had the same intention, it was just a casual relationship, but to be able to be trusted by these few people, it was pretty satisfactory.

"If this is the case, Empress's current predicament is very disadvantageous for you. What does Empress want to do?"

The few of them did not know about anything else, and only knew that the words that had been spread within the palace maid for the past few days were enough to put Hu Xiao in a very disadvantageous position.
