694. Chapter 694

After coming out of Cining Palace, Mo Rongzhan took Eunuch Fu back to Qianqing Palace. After a while, Aunt Cheng came.

"Has the queen mother rested?" Mo Rongzhan asked Aunt Cheng to lie flat and gave her a seat.

"This slave came here after the Queen Mother went to bed." Aunt Cheng said with her head lowered.

Mo Rongzhan nodded lightly, "Ye Yaoyao is really dead?"

Aunt Cheng replied in a low voice, "Back to Your Majesty, I just saw Lady Yao vomiting blood and fainting in Cining Palace that day. The Queen Mother sent someone to send her out of the palace. News of her death came a few days later. I didn't see Yao with my own eyes." The noble lady has lost her breath, so it’s hard to tell whether she is really dead.”

"So, no one knows whether Ye Yaoyao is dead or not." Mo Rongzhan's eyes were cold. Although he had sent people to keep an eye on Ye Yaoyao, he didn't know where the Queen Mother sent her. Obviously the Queen Mother didn't want her to be sent to her. People know the whereabouts of Ye Yaoyao.

Murong Zhanjun frowned slightly. He couldn't figure out how the Queen Mother was so favored by Ye Yaoyao and why she suddenly treated her so well.

"Has the Queen Mother been acting strange these days?" Murong Zhan asked in a low voice.

Aunt Cheng said, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has been the same as usual these days. It's just that today I heard that the Emperor is back and wants to go to the Huguo Temple to fulfill his vows. I knew that His Majesty was going to the Huguo Temple to go to the Huguo Temple to pray for blessings. The Emperor returned after a great victory. The Queen Mother said she wanted to fulfill her wish."

Will the Queen Mother save Ye Yaoyao? Mo Rongzhan tapped his fingers lightly on the table. Ye Yaoyao should not be alive. She was poisoned...

"Aunt Cheng, please go back first. If the Queen Mother goes to Huguo Temple, you have to serve her all the way." Murong Zhan said in a deep voice.

After sending Aunt Cheng away, Mo Rongzhan called Shen Yi over, "Go and check if Ye Yaoyao is really dead, and check the maids around her too."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Shen Yi responded immediately.

"Your Majesty, it's impossible for Mr. Yao to be alive." Eunuch Fu asked cautiously. How could he still be alive after having been fed such poison? He's not a god. Could it be that there really is some kind of god in this world?

Mo Rongzhan said quietly, "Everything is possible."

Hearing that Ye Zhen explained about hypnosis, Mo Rongzhan felt that Ye Yaoyao was not a simple person. He was worried that the Queen Mother had been completely influenced by this woman.

Eunuch Fu lowered his head and said, "This slave will attract more attention."

Mo Rongzhan walked into the dormitory, "Yeah."

Looking at the empty dormitory, I remembered that last night he fell asleep holding the warm nephrite in his arms, but today he was alone. Thinking about it, he still felt a little lonely.

"Your Majesty, are you going to bed?" Eunuch Fu took off his belt for Mo Rongzhan.

"Have a rest." He wanted to see Ye Zhen, but they separated in the morning, so he couldn't go to her immediately.

How could Eunuch Fu not understand his thoughts and hold back his laughter as he changed Mo Rongzhan's clothes.

On the other side of Kyoto, the Lu family was still brightly lit.

Mr. Pei personally cooked the dinner, and the family gathered together to talk for a long time after the meal. It was not until the moon was high outside that they finally dispersed.

Lying on the bed, Ye Zhen thought of Mo Rongzhan.

It's like... I'm used to having him around, and it's hard to sleep without his warmth.

…

…

The next day, Ye Zhen did not go to the palace immediately to pay her respects to the Queen Mother. After returning home, she thought carefully about it. She couldn't go to the palace to pay her respects immediately the next day because Mo Rongzhan had just returned to the palace. She felt that the Queen Mother would definitely do so. suspicious.

She stayed comfortably at home for another two or three days, until Mo Rongzhan asked Xue Lin to remind her that she went into the palace to see the Queen Mother.

Although they had not been away for a long time, Ye Zhen was a little afraid to see the Queen Mother because the last meeting was not pleasant.

The Queen Mother used to treat her like a daughter, but now... I'm afraid it's impossible.

The Queen Mother only found out yesterday that Lu Yaoyao had returned to Kyoto. She knew that with the emperor's return, Lu Yaoyao would return to Kyoto sooner or later, but she didn't expect it to be so soon.

"Let her come in." The Queen Mother whispered, with a somewhat complicated expression.

She used to like Lu Yaoyao very much, but now she doesn't know why and doesn't want to see her.

"Queen Mother, Princess Yaoyao is here." Aunt Cheng whispered beside the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother raised her eyes and looked over, only to see a slender figure walking into the hall with the light behind her. It wasn't until she walked in front of her and saluted that she saw Lu Yaoyao's appearance clearly. She hadn't seen this little girl for a year. She actually looks even more beautiful.

No wonder the emperor only saw her in his eyes.

"I have met the Queen Mother." Ye Zhen did not dare to call the Queen Mother mother anymore. She bowed her head and saluted, feeling a little nervous.

The Queen Mother looked at her for a while, thinking of her past love for her, she felt a little sour in her heart, "Get up."

Ye Zhen thanked her in a low voice, stood up and looked at the Queen Mother hesitantly.

"When did you come back?" the Queen Mother asked quietly.

"Back to the Queen Mother, I came back two days ago." Ye Zhen said in a low voice.

The Queen Mother looked at her timid look and said angrily, "Does the Ai family look scary? You don't even dare to look at the Ai family?"

Ye Zhen took a cautious look and said, "I'm afraid that you don't want to see me, Queen Mother."

"The Ai family doesn't want to see you, why don't you come into the palace?" The Queen Mother asked. She didn't want to see Lu Yaoyao, but seeing someone in person made her miss the past days.

She had almost forgotten that if it weren't for Lu Yaoyao, she might have lost a son.

Ye Zhen said, "Of course not. In fact, I miss the Queen Mother very much."

The queen mother shook her head in her mind, thinking that she was her future daughter-in-law. If there was a quarrel, it would make it even more difficult for the emperor. "Sit down and talk to the Ai family."

"Yes, the Queen Mother." Ye Zhen actually felt a little sad. Although she kept telling herself that it was normal for the Queen Mother to no longer treat her as before, but she still felt sad after experiencing it.

Although the Queen Mother did not show that she disliked her, the intimacy between them had disappeared, and now the Queen Mother was really unfamiliar with her.

"How have you been in the past year since you went to the capital city?" The Queen Mother held a tea bowl in her hand and slowly scraped the tea lid.

Ye Zhen replied cautiously, "It's good to go back to my wife, but I just miss Kyoto a little bit."

"The Ai family thought that you would be happy after going to the capital city, but I didn't expect that you would still miss Kyoto." The Queen Mother smiled, "Master Ye actually agreed to your return to Kyoto, which is really beyond the Ai family's expectation."

"My daughter's biological father and brother are in the royal capital, and my daughter's family is also in Kyoto. Naturally, I miss her." Ye Zhen lowered her head and said.

The Queen Mother glanced at her, "The Ai family heard a while ago that the capital city was almost captured. Were you in the city at that time?"

"Yes, it was just a near miss, which made the Queen Mother worried." Ye Zhen said in a low voice.
