Hua Mujie couldn't believe what she had just heard, but when she saw the cold and serious look on Bai Zhan Ke's face, she was certain of it.

When she started to talk about women, Bai Zhanke's reaction surprised her. She had been guessing that the woman in the secret chamber might be related to Bai Zhanke, but she didn't expect that she was really his mother!

"Bai Zhan Ke, can you tell me what is going on?"

Seeing Bai Zhan Ke's expression that she didn't know what to say, Hua Mu Jin suddenly felt sorry for him.

She had never thought that she would run into her mother's concubine on a night visit to the Dew Palace.

Bai Zhanzheng didn't plan on letting Hua Mujiao know about him, but since she had run into him and asked, she didn't intend to hide it anymore.

"When I was five years old, my mufei was sent to the cold palace. In order to see my mother, I secretly ran to the Cold Palace. Because I was discovered, royal father sent me to the Heavenly Sunlight Nation as a proton for a whole ten years. I haven't seen my mufei since then. "

Bai Zhan Ke's face revealed a bitter smile.

"Later on, when I returned home, the empress dowager had already established her own power, and she had poisoned her father with poison in order for him to become the crown prince. But royal father didn't want to make Bai Ling Yu the crown prince in the end, so she waited for the opportunity to kill him and even ordered me to enter the palace, so that she could blame me for it. However, she did not know that royal father had long finished writing the testamentary edict and had given both the Imperial Jade Seal and the testamentary edict to the Right Prime Minister. "

Listening to Bai Zhan Ke's narration, Hua Mujiao felt guilty towards Bai Zhan Ke.

Because if his mother hadn't wanted to protect him, he wouldn't have gone to ask for help from his mother. In the end, the mother would have been thrown into a cold palace, and the two of them would have been on opposite sides.

But when she heard what Bai Zhan Ke had to do about the Empress Dowager, Hua Mu Jin found it very dramatic.

These things that could only be seen on television had actually happened before.

"When the Right Prime Minister announced me as the successor to the throne with the Imperial Jade Seal and testamentary edict, the Empress Dowager's plans failed. "In order to control me, she took my mother concubine out of the cold palace and used her as a threat to take over my rights as a king, and she became the one who truly ruled over Huan Yue."

When the war was over, Hua Mujiao could no longer sit still.

"Pa …"

Hua Mujie slammed the table and stood up from the chair.

"Damn it, how can there be such a sinister woman? Since the person in the secret chamber is your mufei, then what are we waiting for? Hurry up and bring someone to rescue her! "Let's go, I'll go with you."

As she spoke, Hua Mujie went up to pull Bai Zhan Ke up to save him.

However, Bai Zhan Ke pulled her back, and Hua Mujie, because of her unstable heel, instantly sat on Bai Zhan Ke's leg.

"Do you really think I don't want to save you? If I move a little, I'm afraid my mufei won't just be tortured. The empress dowager will definitely take her life. "

Hua Mujie didn't think too much like Bai Zhan Ke. She just felt that even if she had to put her life on the line for her mother, she definitely wouldn't sit still and wait for her death when she was tortured and mistreated.

"I want to save mufei even more than you do, but right now, I can't. What I want to do is not only save mufei, but also cause the empress dowager's power to crumble and never be reborn, do you understand? "

Bai Zhan Ke buried his head in Hua Mujiao's chest. She could clearly feel his body trembling. He was afraid that if she were to make a wrong move, her mother would lose her life.

Hugging Bai Zhan Ke tightly, for the first time, Hua Mujiao felt that this man was also very weak.

The guilt in her heart towards Bai Zhanji had deepened.

At this moment, Hua Mujiao had made up her mind. She would help this man. Not only would he save his mother's consort, but he would also become the true ruler of the Huan Yue Country!

"Sorry about that …"

Like this, the two snuggled up to each other and quietly hugged each other. It was as if they had received courage from each other, causing them to no longer fear.

After tonight's incident, the Hibiscus Hibiscus Hibiscus Temple was much more peaceful.

Those who came to curry her favor stayed away from her.

Only Mu Qiu often passed by.

"Big Sister Jin, I heard you taught a guard in the empress dowager's palace a lesson a few days ago?" Is that true? "

Mu Qiu suddenly asked, causing a voice to flash through Hua Mujiao's mind.

No wonder, she felt that the guard's voice sounded very familiar. This was because she had once heard this voice outside Mu Qiu's palace.

Who allowed him to trespass into the Hibiscus Palace, and even hurt Green Bamboo? He asked for it. "

Towards that guard, Hua Mujiao didn't have the slightest bit of good will towards him. It was not because he was the Empress Dowager's man that she disliked him. In short, that guard was definitely not a good person.

"Oh, I'm just asking …"

It was obvious that Mu Qiu was somewhat absent-minded.

Although the flower hibiscus knew, it did not burst.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was already summer. The summer in the Huan Yue Country was so hot that it made people panic.

"Ah …" "The heat is dead, the heat is dead, the pearls and ice are not here yet, bring me some more, your master is going to heat up soon …"

Within the palace of the Hibiscus Temple, Hua Mujiao was lying on the table, her entire body seemed to have been paralyzed as she stuck closely to the ice-cold table. To the side, the ice that had been used to quench the heat had long since melted and turned into water.

"Empress, there is no more. Each palace has its own share of ice cubes. The few days that Empress used it at one time have long since been used up. "

On one side, the pearl kept waving the fan in her hand, fanning the hibiscus flowers.

No matter how she fanned it, she felt it was hot, and Pearl felt helpless.

"I can't do it, it's too hot. Accompany me to the Imperial Gardens. Isn't there a pond there? Let's go and wash our feet."

With that, Hua Mu Jin stood up from the table, and without caring about the pearls that couldn't keep up, she ran to the imperial garden alone.

Although the sun was high in the sky now, in order to relieve the heat, Hua Mu Jin didn't care too much. She ran straight to the imperial garden, found a shady place, and then took off her shoes before putting them in the pond.

"Phew …" "Comfortable …"

Feeling the coolness from the soles of her feet, Hua Mujie felt extremely comfortable.

At this time, in a pavilion far away, a few concubines were admiring the flowers. When they saw the hibiscus flower, one of the nobles unhappily said.

"Esteemed wangfei, take a look. With the emperor's favor, you actually dared to do such a shameless thing. To do it in public, aren't you afraid of being disgraced by others?"

Wei Hanshuang looked over to where the noble man was pointing and curled her lips.

"Sister is right. Actually, I don't think it's anything important. If the emperor dotes on her, then he should pamper her. It's just that the emperor dotes on her alone, so your sister won't be able to get any favours. Naturally, your position won't rise any further.

Wei Hanshuang spoke very calmly, but her words were heard by the few people sitting by the side.

"I don't know what kind of bewitching medicine she gave the emperor, but he's actually bewitching the emperor. In my opinion, she's most likely a demoness."

"Sister, why don't you give it a try and see if it's a Fey?"

Wei Hanshuang's sudden words shocked the nobles.

"Esteemed Ning Xiaoyao, you really know how to joke around, how are we supposed to test this?"

Smiling lightly, Wei Hanshuang reached out her hand and hooked him with a hook. She then whispered something into her ear in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

And then, he saw his patron wave his hands in fear and astonishment.

"Esteemed Ning Concubine, chenqie doesn't dare." If the emperor knew about this, wouldn't chenqie be beaten into the cold palace? "

Sneering coldly, Wei Hanshuang encouraged the noble, "What are you afraid of? With me and my sisters testifying for you, who would believe you did it? Furthermore, isn't there nobody by her side right now? "

Hearing Wei Hanshuang's words, the noble man's heart was filled with courage in an instant.

He stood up and walked towards Hua Mu Jin.

Quietly arriving behind the flower hibiscus, the nobleman thought that he had not been discovered and stretched out his hand to push the flower hibiscus into the pond.

However, the moment she made her move, Hua Mujiao had already sensed it. With a flip of her body, she appeared behind her benefactor and kicked him into the pond.

"Hmph, you want to push me? Do not even think about it! "

"Ah …" "Save, save me, I, I don't, I don't know how to water …"

Ignoring the nobleman in the pond, Hua Mujiao turned to look at the pavilion. Actually, she had already noticed Wei Hanshuang and the others long ago, but she was too lazy to bother and pretended not to see them.

Seeing Wei Hanshuang sitting in the pavilion with a sneer on her face, Hua Mu Jin also raised her lips. Her lips slightly moved, but she didn't make a sound.

Afterwards, Hua Mujiao turned around, picked up the shoes on the ground, and walked barefooted towards the Heartbreak Palace.

And her every action caused Wei Hanshuang in the pavilion to clench her fists, her eyes filled with resentment.

"Aiyo, my dear lady, why aren't you wearing shoes? Quick, someone, hurry and put on the shoes for Esteemed Empress Xi. What if you get hurt and get better? "

Upon entering the Heart Nurturing Palace, Bai Zhan Ke's eunuch, Zhang Quan De came to welcome him, seeing Hua Mu Jin's bare feet, he was afraid and worried, so he immediately ordered his palace maid to help him put on his shoes.

"What are you wearing? It's so hot and these shoes aren't even breathing. Do you want me to die from the heat?" "I'm not wearing any clothes, hurry up and go over to those ice cubes. Coming over from the imperial garden, I was almost hit by the heat."

After the palace maid left, Hua Mujiao carried her shoes and entered the palace.

Meanwhile, Bai Zhan Ke was sitting at the desk in the palace, reviewing the memorial.

"Why are you here?"

Raising his eyes, he glanced at Hua Mu Jin, then asked Bai Zhan Ke in a soft voice, and continued to review and review the memorial.

"Hot, I came here to steal a cold. I have used up all the ice in my palace, how about you give me a few pieces of the ice you have here? "

Hearing Hua Mu Jin's playful voice, Bai Zhan Ke helplessly shook his head.

Putting away the memorial, he got up, walked to Hua Mujiao's side, and squatted down, "I'll get someone to send you some later. Reach out and put on your shoes."

Hua Mujiao was flattered by Bai Zhan Ke's actions.

He hurriedly withdrew his feet and gave an awkward laugh. "Hehe, you're a sovereign. It's not good to put on your concubine's shoes, right?"
