Empress Chu's expression was cold, and the wry smile on her face gradually disappeared, only dying with deep exhaustion.

In fact, even she couldn't tell how much of this exhaustion was pretending and how much was sincere.

has been in charge of the harem for so many years, it is not that she has not been wronged, but at that time she believed in the young husband and wife relationship between her and Emperor Yun, and it seemed that there would always be a force in her heart to support her. It's just that now this power has suddenly disappeared, and in the face of all kinds of harem, she sometimes does feel tired from the bottom of her heart.

"Queen, I ignored you before, and I promise you that this will never happen again in the future." It's not that he can't feel it, since the last incident, the queen's attitude towards him is different from before.

Although it is still the same respect, there seems to be no difference on the surface, but there seems to be a lot of weakness between the two people.

"The emperor doesn't need to apologize to the concubines, nor does he need to promise anything to the concubines, since the concubines are still the queen, sitting in the position of the lord of the harem, the concubines will naturally do their duty, as for the rest, the concubines will not ask for anything more."

Empress Chu blessed Emperor Yun, "If the emperor doesn't have any orders, the concubine will retire first, the concubine is a little frightened today, and wants to go back to rest early." ”

Emperor Yun opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, and finally just nodded and asked Empress Chu to go back first.

On the other side, after Emperor Yun returned to the imperial study, all that kept coming to his mind was the tired and bitter expression of Empress Chu.

"Did you say that I neglected the queen too much before?" Now that I think about it, at the last birthday banquet, he really didn't take into account the queen's feelings.

"This ......" Chen Gonggong on the side looked embarrassed.

"You tell the truth, don't worry, I won't blame you."

"The minions obey." Gonggong Chen thought for a while and said, "The emperor and the queen mother are two young people, husband and wife together, after so many years, the queen must have taken a fancy to the emperor in her heart." Maybe I just didn't think about it for a while, but after a while, the queen mother thought it through, and the relationship with the emperor naturally returned to the same as before. ”

"It seems that you can also see that the queen treats me differently than before."

Gonggong Chen was shocked, and quickly knelt down, "Please forgive the emperor, the slave doesn't mean that." ”

"Okay, I've already said it just now, I don't blame you, not to mention that what you said is also the truth." Emperor Yun sighed, "Maybe it's really me who disappointed the Empress." ”

Gonggong Chen stood up cautiously, not daring to speak again.

Emperor Yun, on the other hand, began to continue to deal with the twists and turns in front of the table, but staring at the twists and turns in front of him, his thoughts involuntarily drifted away.

……

The matter of Concubine Wan holding the queen hostage and making trouble in the cold palace soon spread throughout the palace, and after Yun Qingyan heard about it, she also guessed that this was Queen Chu's means.

However, the news did not spread for long, as it was not long before another, even more explosive news spread through the palace.

That is, someone heard the eldest princess say in front of An Shizi that she liked Mrs. Feng. And the sentiment is sincere and very moving.

When the news reached Yunwu Palace, Yun Qingyan, who was drinking water, was almost choked to death.

"Where the hell did this news come from?" When she said those words to An Jingxuan that day, she didn't see anyone around.

"Back to the princess, the slave doesn't know, but now the news has spread all over the palace, saying that princess, you like Mrs. Feng wholeheartedly, and even confessed to Mrs. Feng in public."

Yun Qingyan's face was so black that he could drip ink, "It's just nonsense, I just wanted to send An Jingxuan away quickly, that's why I said those words!" ”

Qiu'er looked at her princess and didn't know what to comfort, "Princess, maybe someone heard it somewhere when you were talking, so there was such a rumor." ”

"Qiu'er, has this news spread throughout the palace now?" Yun Qingyan had the last glimmer of hope in his heart.

Qiu'er nodded, "It should be." ”

Yun Qingyan raised his head and looked at the roof, and finally said helplessly: "It's over!" ”

The news was boiling, and Liu Wushuang naturally knew about it, and he was annoyed in his heart, but he could only insult Ying'er in private and Yun Qingyan was not ashamed.

And what she can do for the time being is to continue to curry favor with Yun Yao according to Empress Dowager Liu's orders.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, this is my new soup stewed this morning, and I have come to bring a cup to His Royal Highness the Prince."

Yun Yao motioned to the eunuch on the side to take the soup, "Thank you Miss Liu, it's just that there is a jade dining room in the palace, and naturally someone will send the soup with you, so Miss Liu doesn't have to work hard." ”

"It's just a little soup, and Wushuang doesn't feel tired." Liu Wushuang smiled extremely gently, and there was a slight ambiguity in his tone, "Besides, even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince likes to drink, even if he is tired, it doesn't matter." ”

Yun Yao looked at Liu Wushuang in front of him, in the past, when Liu Wushuang showed such a look, his heart was always the most turbulent. But looking at Liu Wushuang now, he couldn't tell what kind of thoughts were hidden underneath such an expression.

"No need, I don't really like to drink soup on weekdays, I'm afraid that I will waste a piece of Miss Liu's heart."

Liu Wushuang was stunned for a moment, frowning slightly, but quickly regained his smile: "It turns out that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't like to drink soup, I don't know if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince likes to eat any pastries on weekdays, and recently Wushuang is also making pastries for the Queen Mother, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't dislike it, Wushuang will ...... then."

"Don't bother Miss Liu." Yun Yao interrupted Liu Wushuang's words, "Recently, the study has been suspended, but I can't be lazy, and occasionally I have some government affairs to help my father deal with, so I don't have the heart to pursue any appetite, Miss Liu's kindness is understood." ”

If Liu Wushuang only felt that something was slightly wrong just now, although now he was obviously aware of Yun Yao's coldness.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, I don't know if Wushuang did something wrong to make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince unhappy?"

"Miss Liu misunderstood." Yun Yao was silent for a moment, and then couldn't help but speak, "I just think that there are some things that I haven't seen clearly before, maybe I should think about it, sometimes what I see is the truth." ”

Liu Wushuang chuckled in his heart, Yun Yao's tone was clearly wrong, could it be that what he had done before was discovered by Yun Yao?

It shouldn't be! Even if Yun Qingyan doubted himself and told Yun Yao, according to Yun Yao's previous attitude towards himself, it would never be possible for such a big change to happen.

Thinking of this, Liu Wushuang gritted his teeth and tentatively spoke: "Does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have any misunderstanding about Wushuang?" If Her Royal Highness the eldest princess said something to Her Royal Highness the Prince, Wushuang would have no way to defend it, but I still hope that Her Royal Highness the Crown Prince can believe in Wushuang, Wushuang is frank and open, and has not done anything to be sorry for Her Royal Highness the eldest princess. ”
