Hearing this, Ye Haitang was a little embarrassed — Situ Min's words were obviously implying that she had taken it without reason and did not understand the rules.
A glint of hatred flashed in her eyes, but was quickly suppressed.
Ye Haitang was furious, but she could not flare up at this time.
Xiao Ruyue did not care about her expression at all, and nonchalantly asked Lu Yi to pass over the food box to him, and gave it to Fang Weiyong, "Eunuch Fang, this is a dessert that has just come out of the oven. Your Majesty has been busy the whole morning, you must be hungry, and have eaten the red date fruit that has replenished your energy and nourished your blood, may I trouble you to pass it to Your Majesty? Let him eat more or less. "
Fang Weiyong had already said that he would not see anyone. Since Ye Haitang was included in it, of course she was included as well.
As intelligent as Xiao Ruyue was, she naturally knew what she had to do.
Fang Weiyong immediately received the box with both hands, and said respectfully: "This servant understands, this servant will definitely pass the thing to Your Majesty safely."
Seeing that, Ye Haitang imitated Xiao Ruyue's actions, taking the box in Ya Nuo's hands and passing it over to him, "This is the ginseng soup that I prepared for Your Majesty, I request Eunuch Fang to deliver it on my behalf."
Fang Weiyong signaled Xiao Shunzi to go and receive it, and Xiao Shunzi immediately extended his hands out, pulling Ye Haitang's face down.
Needless to say, she was angry at Fang Weiyong. She actually dared to let a little eunuch flirt with her.
Xiao Shunzi was scared stiff by her expression. His hand had obviously touched the food box, but he didn't dare to pick it up.
Ye Haitang's hand was also stiff, not moving at all.
Xiao Ruyue acted as if she was fine, and pretended she did not see how awkward the scene was, and said: "I'll leave the snacks to Eunuch Fang, I'll be returning first."
"Respectfully sending off the empress." Fang Weiyong bowed to Xiao Ruyue, completely ignoring her existence.
Ye Haitang was embarrassed, she angrily threw the food box to Xiao Shunzi and turned to leave.
Damn it, it's Situ Min. You think you're amazing just because Yuwen He dotes on you? Now, even a useless eunuch dares to help you bully me.
You wait and see who can laugh to the end.
Without the "One Night Spring Festival Gala", I really want to see how you continue to confuse Yuwen He and make him specially spoil you!
Ye Haitang almost failed to catch the box that Ye Haitang was throwing too fast. Seeing Imperial Concubine walk away angrily with the box in her arms, Xiao Shunzi looked at Fang Weiyong with a wronged expression, "Master, did I do something wrong? Why is Imperial Concubine so angry? "
"No, you did well." Fang Weiyong patted his shoulder, "You must remember, this is how Imperial Consort Ye is. You just need to follow the rules.
Xiao Shunzi nodded, skeptical.
He had only been in the palace for two years, and he had been doing odd jobs down there. It was only because Fang Weiyong saw that he was honest and hardworking, that brought him over to his side. He did not understand the worldly affairs of the people in the palace, and even lied to them.
Fang Weiyong wanted to say a few more words, but after thinking for a while, he gave up.
"Come in with me." He told Xiao Shunzi, and signaled Yu Lin Wei who was guarding the door to open the door.
In the imperial study room, Yuwen He, Yue Xiang and Xiao Jingyu seemed to have finished their conversation. When they saw Fang Weiyong coming in, they all looked at him and Xiao Shunzi who was behind him.
"Min Er went back?" Yuwen He looked at the box in Fang Weiyong's hand.
Fang Weiyong replied, "The Empress doesn't want to see your highness in a difficult situation, so she handed the dessert to this servant and left. "Imperial Consort Ye also …" He turned his head to look at the box in Xiao Shunzi's hands.
Yuwen He nodded his head to express his understanding, "Put this down and send Yue Xiang and Xiao Shang Shu out."
"Yes."
Yue Xiang and Xiao Jingyu both took their leave, Fang Weiyong bringing the two Masters out.
In the large imperial study room, only Yuwen He was left.
He opened the box that Xiao Ruyue sent over. The fresh cake was still warm from the cooking, and when he opened the lid, a unique fragrance rushed over.
Yuwen He used a clean handkerchief to wipe his hands, and then picked up a piece to eat.
There was no need to mention Lu Yi's culinary skills. Furthermore, the one he loved came up to him, so it definitely tasted exceptionally delicious. Yuwen He ate half of the plate consecutively before he stopped and drank a mouthful of tea.
Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw another box that belonged to Ye Haitang. The light in his eyes dimmed as he called out to it in a low voice, "Chong Yue."
With that said, Chong Yue appeared from the shadows and knelt down on one knee, "Master, do you have any orders?"
Yuwen He said coldly: "Send the contents of this box to the Invitation Phoenix Palace and give it to Miss Liangqiu. Just say that it was sent by him."
After saying that, he paused for a moment, then added, "Don't let Min Er see it."
Chong Yue hesitated for a moment before replying, "Yes." Then, he took the food box that Ye Haitang delivered and it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The imperial study room quieted once again, just like how Chong Yue had never appeared or disappeared.
Ye Haitang, this woman.
The fake Empress Dowager kept on saying that she was bored and had no one to talk to. She half-ordered Yuwen He to release Ye Haitang and said, "Imperial Consort Ye can reflect on herself and learn the rules by accompanying This Dowager."
If she came to force him, Yuwen He would naturally not be afraid, but unfortunately, her reasoning was extremely reasonable. Only then did Yuwen He make the decision to remove Ye Haitang's restrictions, but this woman was not honest, or perhaps it could be said that she had never been honest before.
How could she be honest when she was delusional enough to think that by controlling someone like Yuwen Chenglian, she could subvert the entire Grand Xia?
Despite having lived for dozens of years, she still wanted to borrow medicine to forcefully maintain the appearance of a young girl. She thought that she was extremely flirtatious, but she didn't know that she would only make people feel disgusted.
Thinking of this, Yuwen He couldn't help but think of Xiao Ruyue.
If not for Ye Haitang's intervention, Elder Sister Xiao's fate would not have been so rough.
For this reason alone, she had to die!
Inside the Phoenix Palace.
Chong Yue carried his food box and flew away to avoid Yu Lin Wei's line of sight. In broad daylight, he didn't take the normal route and quickly arrived at the Invitation Phoenix Palace.
He rushed straight towards Liangqiu Yayin's room and passed the food box to her, then passed Yuwen He's words to her, before coming out of her room.
Chong Yue was planning to walk out from the window, but he suddenly thought of something and came out.
Who would have thought that after coming out from Liangqiu Yayin's place, he would run into Lu Yi who was holding a plate of Peony Blossom Cake in her hands.
"You, that me …"
"You still dare to come!" When she saw him, Lu Yi was infuriated. When she thought about what happened at Courtyard that day, her anger rose and she slapped him again with a "Pa" sound.
Chong Yue was a little confused. How much strength a girl in green could have was nothing to him? He looked at his eyes that were red with anger and asked mysteriously: "It didn't hurt your hand, right?"
Lu Yi was stunned.
But he quickly regained his senses and stomped his feet in anger, "Don't let me see you again! Otherwise, I'll definitely tell the Empress that you molested me and that the Empress will properly punish you for your crimes! "
After saying that, Lu Yi walked into Liangqiu Yayin's room.
Chong Yue couldn't help but touch his left cheek. It really hurt a little. Would her hand hurt?
"What are you daydreaming about?" A voice suddenly exploded in his ears.
Chong Yue turned his body in shock, only to see the empress standing right behind him.
"Empress … Empress …" Chong Yue relaxed and heaved a sigh of relief.
Xiao Ruyue sized him up with interest, "I saw you stand here for half a day. When Lu Yi left in a huff, I heard her say that she wanted to seek me as the judge, tell me about you molesting her, and what did you do to Lu Yi."
Chong Yue didn't think that the empress would hear what he said and his heart rose. "Esteemed empress, I-I didn't mean to do it! That day … I was …"
"No rush, take your time." Xiao Ruyue laughed.
It was her first time seeing this proud person of Chong Yue's in such a state of panic, her reaction was really cute.
Chong Yue stuttered for a while, but he did not know what to say, so he simply remained silent.
Xiao Ruyue then brought him into the small pharmacy and closed the door. She then sized Chong Yue up and said seriously, "Usually no one will come in to the pharmacy, so speaking is very convenient, so you don't need to worry about being heard by others."
"Empress, do you know something?" Chong Yue nervously swallowed his saliva. He would never do something shameful in his life, it was the first time he did such a thing to a little girl.
Xiao Ruyue laughed again as her slender, leather-like hands swept across the clean medicine jar, as if she was deliberately trying to keep Chong Yue in suspense.
In fact, that was the case.
The more she was like this, the more nervous Chong Yue became.
After a long while, Xiao Ruyue finally ended her interest in inspecting the medicine jar. She raised her eyes and looked at Chong Yue: "You didn't do it on purpose, yet you molested Lu Yi, right?"
"Yes." Chong Yue nodded guiltily, and did not dare to look straight into Xiao Ruyue's eyes.
"It should be that day in Courtyard." Xiao Ruyue said again.
Chong Yue nodded in astonishment. His eyes seemed to ask: "Empress, how do you know?"
"Because Emmie has been out of whack ever since that day. Lu Yi had been by my side since I was a child, and no one knew her temperament better than I did. Ever since that day she had tasted being alone and lost in thought. I went to Academic Institution for three days and returned, her situation was even worse. I didn't connect everything until I overheard your conversation. "
Xiao Ruyue said slowly, without the slightest awkwardness as if she was eavesdropping on the conversation of others.
Because she didn't eavesdrop, she was listening openly.
It was just that the two parties involved were too focused on their own matters and didn't notice her at all.
"Chong Yue, do you know that Lu Yi is now my personal maid? If you act like her, she will be punished." Xiao Ruyue added.
"Empress, this matter is my fault!" Chong Yue's face changed, he instantly knelt down and kowtowed to Xiao Ruyue, kowtowing heavily, "Esteemed Empress, this is just a matter of time. It has nothing to do with green girl, she is also a victim, I am the one who caused this."
He truly is a straightforward young man. His brain is only a string of tendons, and he is simply formidable.
Xiao Ruyue could not help but sigh, and asked: "Do you know why Lu Yi is so angry?"
