His light tone, however, made others tremble in fear.
Thirteen couldn't help but shiver. "Mistress, I, I am …"
"You've always been a steady person, but you're getting more and more out of hand." How could he not sense Thirteen's attitude towards Xiao Ruyue.
"I …"
Thirteen wanted to explain, but the words stuck in his throat.
This was because she did not return to the capital for any official reason, but out of selfishness.
No matter how much you said, it was an excuse.
She rushed back at all costs not only because she was worried that Chong Yue and the others would not be able to handle coming back to the capital, but also because she wanted to see this man in front of her.
She wanted to know what the queen he had married looked like; she wanted to see if he was really the only queen, as the rumours had it; she also wanted to see if he had really fallen in love with a woman he had never met and had never been able to extricate himself from it.
She was unwilling and unwilling to admit that she had lost to a woman he had raised in his room.
She had loved him for so many years!
Yet, just because this woman was a princess and she was a lowly servant?
Thirteen's heart was filled with tender thoughts. He swept his gaze across Xiao Ruyue's body and glared at her venomously.
In the end, she lowered her head and said in a low voice, "Thirteen understands his wrongs, master, please punish him."
Xiao Ruyue did not miss the venomous look in her eyes, and did not miss the sadness and disappointment in her voice either.
But she did not speak.
There was no need for her to say anything in such an occasion.
"To be absent from duty is to be one; to disrespect the matriarch is to be two. He himself would go to Chong Yue to receive his punishment. You should be well aware of how you should punish them. " Yuwen He's voice was extremely cold, without the slightest emotion.
Thirteen raised his head and a surprised look flashed in his eyes.
Even Xiao Ruyue could not help but be surprised. Was Yuwen He protecting her position?
"Tonight, I will allow you to stay in the capital. Tomorrow, we will head back." Yuwen He looked at Thirteen and said, after saying that, he held Xiao Ruyue's hand and stood up.
"I was going to take you somewhere tomorrow night. This is a coincidence, let's go over and take a look. "
"Where to?" Xiao Ruyue answered as if no one was around, and deliberately ignored Thirteen's existence.
Just thinking about it, he knew that right now, this Yuwen He, who was called Thirteen's admirer and subordinate, definitely had an ugly expression on his face and would feel good in his heart for a while.
But there was no helping it, I was selfish.
Thinking about it, Xiao Ruyue's mouth formed a smile, and pulled Yuwen He by the arm, and started walking out, "It's so late, where are we going? Is there anything fun in that place? "
"You'll know when you get there." Yuwen He laughed and said, his words full of affection.
There was a world of difference between his attitude towards Thirteen and before.
He did it on purpose.
Seeing Yuwen He and Xiao Ruyue leaving, Thirteen's hands that were kneeling on the ground clenched into fists, and his teeth clenched — —
"Why? Why is it that the person standing by your side is not me?"
Xiao Ruyue had originally been talking and laughing with Yuwen He.
But when she reached the main hall, the smile faded from her face.
Her hand impatiently pulled out from Yuwen He's arm.
"What happened to Min Er?" Yuwen He looked at her in surprise after her series of actions.
"These words should be asked by chenqie." Xiao Ruyue said indifferently, her voice did not sound happy or angry.
In the next moment, her eyes flashed with anger as she betrayed her. "His Majesty insisted on pulling me in front of that Thirteenth Miss. Why did you do something to humiliate her?"
"Min Er is jealous." Yuwen He sized her up and honestly concluded.
It was not a question, but a definite one.
"Chenqie doesn't eat sour food since she's young." Xiao Ruyue was neither fast nor slow, she weighed a thousand kilograms in two or three.
"You're still saying that you're not jealous? You're obviously angry." Yuwen He had already expected her reaction, so he did not rush.
"You must be wondering who the woman who appeared without so much as a word was; and what right do you think she has to go in and out of the palace? Even Chong Yue and Chong Yang did not dare to casually barge into her chambers, how could she have such guts? Are you still going to say that you're not angry? "
Xiao Ruyue snorted, "Whatever Your Majesty says is true."
He was really stubborn.
"I don't mind telling you. Thirteen has followed me for over ten years, and ever since I was ten, she had been by my side. Speaking of qualifications, she was naturally older than Chong Yang and Chong Yue. " Yuwen He said in amusement as his index finger lightly scratched Xiao Ruyue's nose, completely doting on him.
"Are you satisfied with this answer?"
"Your Majesty is an elegant and elegant man, it is only natural for him to have something to do with the female subordinates who have followed him for so many years. This concubine understands. " Xiao Ruyue said indifferently.
As soon as the words left her mouth, she wanted to bite off her tongue.
Xiao Ruyue, what nonsense are you spouting!
When Yuwen He heard this, he burst out laughing.
Xiao Ruyue's face became even uglier.
Just when she thought Yuwen He would take the opportunity to say something, Yuwen He did not.
"Ready to go."
Yuwen He suddenly said beside her ear. Before Xiao Ruyue could understand what he meant, her body lightened and she flew up into the air.
Xiao Ruyue almost cried out in fear as she grabbed Yuwen He's arm.
However, most likely it was because of Yuwen He.
Fear was overshadowed by surprise.
Yuwen He's arm was wrapped around her waist, he flew up with the wind, jumping across the roof lightly and nimbly, as though he was riding on the wind.
Xiao Ruyue quickly got used to the weightlessness. She flew over the rooftops one by one, and after borrowing some strength from the palace walls, she jumped right out.
Then, he descended from the sky.
The ground was getting closer and closer. Xiao Ruyue closed her eyes in fear, but she did not feel any pain from the fall like she had imagined.
His feet stomped on the ground.
Only then did Xiao Ruyue dare to open her eyes.
"How do you feel?" Yuwen He looked at Xiao Ruyue, his eyes filled with anticipation.
Being asked this question, Xiao Ruyue finally understood.
Just now, they had 'flown' out of the palace! Even the powerful Yu Lin Wei was not alarmed.
All this while, she had always known that Yuwen He knew martial arts, but she never thought that his martial arts would be so powerful!
He couldn't be blamed for daring to bring Chong Yue to challenge the Wei Wang Manor.
Not only had he barged into the manor, but he had also injured himself. Having been tormented for the entire day, she had almost forgotten that he was still injured.
Thinking up to here, Xiao Ruyue's gaze turned cold. "Your Majesty, you're being too reckless. Did the wound split open? "
"This little injury is fine." When he spoke, he clearly paused for a moment.
Xiao Ruyue's expression turned cold, and used both hands to tear off his sleeves.
The wound, which he had spent a great deal of effort to heal, had indeed started bleeding again.
"Min Er, what do you want to do?" Yuwen He was struggling. Xiao Ruyue angrily glared at him, "If you're so messed up, even if you don't use others to steal your throne, your life will sooner or later be shortened."
Yuwen He: "It shouldn't be that serious. It's actually just a small injury …"
"Go back and apply the medicine." Without waiting for him to finish, Xiao Ruyue did not deny it.
Yuwen He, "…"
Just then, a simple carriage appeared in Xiao Ruyue's line of sight.
This carriage looked like it was used by ordinary people, but it was slightly larger than an ordinary carriage.
When the carriage drew near, Xiao Ruyue could see that the one driving the carriage was Chong Yang.
"Mistress, Mistress." Chong Yang jumped off the car swiftly.
Xiao Ruyue suddenly realized that Yuwen He was simply scheming. He was still fooling around even after getting injured, he really wanted to stay alive!
"Where are you taking me?" Xiao Ruyue gnashed his teeth.
"We'll know when we get there." Yuwen He knew that he had angered Xiao Ruyue, so he said while grinning, "The carriage has already arrived, and you're not willing to let me give it a try for nothing, right?"
Xiao Ruyue unhappily rolled her eyes at him, "Get in the car, I've brought the medicine with me."
Yuwen He nodded happily, and was about to come over and hug her, when Xiao Ruyue directly gave him a "you dare" look, and climbed up the carriage herself.
Women were not to be trifled with.
Yuwen He rubbed his nose, accepting his fate.
After getting on the carriage, they headed to the north side of the city.
Yuwen He leaned on her obediently, her clothes was taken off by Xiao Ruyue and applied the medicine.
She purposely poked his wound, causing Yuwen He to frown, but he continued to grin at her.
He was so angry that Xiao Ruyue's attacks became heavier.
"Oh, the murder of my husband."
"Murder your head!" Xiao Ruyue said angrily.
"You and I are husband and wife, how could I be wrong? This is a murder of my own husband! Is there any justice in the world? Calm down, calm down!"
Chong Yang who was driving the carriage heard the voices coming from inside, and he snickered along the way.
The people living in the north side of the city were mostly noble officials of noble kings, merchants and wealthy people. However, they saw that the carriage had circled around the north side of the city before finally stopping in front of a large courtyard house.
This house was very close to the mansions of the court officials.
Xiao Ruyue secretly thought, if she remembered correctly, marble temple Qing Liu Yuan's residence was right in front.
The house was quiet.
Yuwen He led Xiao Ruyue to the rear hall.
In the main room, Empress Dowager was sleeping on the bed, her breathing was steady and weak.
How could that old man from Empress Dowager know it?
"Empress Dowager, what's going on?"
"This is the case after I brought him out from the Wei Mansion." Chong Yang said.
Xiao Ruyue's eyes immediately became sharp!
It was also the doing of Yuwen Chenglian and Yao Ziyan!
What a pair of vicious and merciless beasts. Even such an old man could do such a thing.
Xiao Ruyue's fingernails dug into the meat of the scumbag, wishing that he could strangle both the scumbag and the bitch to death right in front of him right now!
"How is Royal Grandmother?"
A green clothed man around 30 years old walked in with a medicinal bowl in his hands. He looked like a doctor, and Yuwen He was the one who asked him this question.
The azure-dressed man replied: "Empress Dowager has been groggy for the past few days, sleep more and wake up less."
"I'm asking, how's the poison in Royal Grandmother?"
The green clothed man shook his head, "Empress Dowager has been poisoned for a long time, the poison has already invaded the internal organs. Adding that the elder is already very old, I'm afraid that the time is running out."
'How, how could this be?! '
Xiao Ruyue's heart was ruthlessly hit, and her expression changed.
Thinking about all those years, Empress Dowager spoke while holding her hand. Her heart was in pain.
'This kind of benevolent old man, how could he? '
"However, if we can find the antidote within these five days, perhaps there might be a cure." The light robed man continued after taking a deep breath.
