22. Upper court
In the end, Yejiu fled in the wilderness.
She was afraid that if she didn't run away, she would be eaten, didn't you see the man's eyes?
It's as if you're a delicious lamb to be eaten when it's ripe.

night
Yejiu stood outside the door of his bedroom and wandered.
The door is closed.
She put one hand on the door and wanted to push it open, but hesitated.
I don't know if the man was in there.
What if it's really inside?!
But she didn't want to sleep in the study, which was very cold.
Wait a minute!!
This is her room, why is she wandering around the study and bedroom.
Also, as Beigong Sai said, she is a woman, and she doesn't suffer in this world of women, so why hide.
Ye Jiu suddenly came to his senses.
Pluck up the courage and push the door open.
"Squeak—"
The wooden door made a soft noise.
Yejiu cautiously poked her head out and looked around, the dormitory was empty.
She breathed a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, the man wasn't there.

Early in the morning, the housekeeper Wen Ning knocked lightly on the door.
"Lord Wang, Jiang Guards asked me to pass the word, you must go to the court today, otherwise the empress will blame the minions, saying that the minions did not take good care of them and killed all the minions in the palace, and Jiang Guards have prepared a carriage and are waiting outside the palace."
After Wen Ning finished speaking, there were no words in the bedroom for a while, and when Wen Ning was about to forcibly enter, a word came from the bedroom.
"Come in."
Wen Ning led several male servants behind him into the bedroom.
At this time, Ye Jiu had already dressed and sat in a bronze mirror in court clothes, his eyes were half-squinted, his eyes were hazy, and he didn't wake up at first glance.
Wen Ning motioned to several male servants.
"You guys, tie up your hair and wash your hair."
"Yes."
Several of the manservants put down the tray in their hands, and one of them walked over to Yejiu's side.
"Lord, take the liberty of it."
As he spoke, he picked up the wooden comb on the table and tied up Ye Jiu's hair.
Yejiu didn't refuse either.
In ancient times, she really didn't know how to get this hair ornament.
In this way, sleepy-eyed and hazy let the manservant fiddle.
"Lord Wang, it's okay."
The manservant stepped back, and Yejiu was awake.
Glancing at the basin and towel carried by the manservant, Ye Jiu said, "You guys go down, I'll come by myself." ”
"Yes."

Taihua Palace
All the ministers (women, of course), including Yejiu, stood on both sides of the main hall.
At this time, the palace attendant's shrill voice came.
"The emperor has arrived—"
All the ministers bowed their heads and knelt down, only Ye Jiu stood and bowed slightly.
This was pardoned by the Empress, which shows the Empress's affection for the original owner.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live."
The deafening sound resounded in the sky.
"Zhong Aiqing is flat."
The Empress flicked her sleeve robe, turned around, and sat firmly on the dragon chair.
"Emperor Xie."
Ye Jiu glanced up at the empress, dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, graceful and luxurious, with thousands of demeanors and awe-inspiring momentum.
Well, full of royal sister style.
And also a beauty.
