Jun Ninglan frowned when she saw her, raised her eyebrows and said, "Follow me." After speaking, he actually took her a shortcut and crossed a small road, Jun Ninglan nodded his chin and motioned for her to look forward.

Ye Hao raised her eyes and looked, not far away was Fang Cai's pavilion, she nodded, "Thank you, Your Highness." ”

Jun Ninglan raised her eyebrows and smiled, looked at her with burning eyes, snapped her fingers, and the two palace maids came out of nowhere, and said respectfully to Ye Hao: "Your Highness."

Ye Hao looked at him puzzled, but Jun Ninglan left by herself, Ye Hao also walked back to the pavilion and sat down, thinking about countermeasures in her heart, according to Jun Linchu's temperament, she heard the palace maid call her name and firmly believed that it was herself, the palace maid deliberately called her name to attract Jun Linchu's attention, such a clever means are not like Ping Zhaoyi and Princess Luxiang can do.

On the other side, Jun Lin Chu and Gu Xue Ge had already separated, one after the other came to Concubine Xian, Concubine Xian's eyes wandered on Gu Xueran's delicate face, pursed her lips and smiled: "Sister Xue Ge, you and the eldest prince are coincidental, and they have come one after the other."

A trace of unnaturalness flashed on Gu Xuege's face, and she smiled reluctantly: "It's just a coincidence, does Sister Xian take all the noble ladies to enjoy the plum?" In fact, when he said this, he asked a little knowingly, but Gu Xuege didn't have to talk about it, so he simply talked about it casually.

"Your sisters are so interested." A majestic female voice came, Concubine Xian straightened up, her eyes looked forward gently, Gu Xuege also looked at the person who came with all her attention, and all the noble ladies showed a respectful attitude, their eyebrows were lowered, and it was the current Queen Jingde of the Mother of Northern Chu who spoke, but the emperor beside her was the emperor.

Concubine Xian raised her eyes, her eyes were full of affection, and she looked at the emperor and said softly: "The concubine sees Your Majesty, and now Your Majesty is here, the concubine is really surprised."

After speaking, she said respectfully: "The concubine visits the queen." There is nothing wrong with it, and the tone and demeanor are just right, even if the queen wants to stir up trouble, it will not work.

Empress Jingde was dressed in a red golden phoenix palace dress, with a serious face, and the five-tailed golden phoenix hairpin in her hair symbolized the identity and majesty of the queen.

Concubine Xian hurriedly said: "How dare the concubine invite credit, it's just a matter of duty."

The emperor looked at the plum forest with gloomy eyes, and was full of emotion, and said sadly: "This plum blossom is really blooming more and more." The thick sorrow and the unsolvable sorrow came into everyone's ears, and Concubine Xian and the others naturally knew that the emperor recalled Empress Xiaozhen again, however, Empress Jingde's face changed suddenly, but she was already able to quietly not show the slightest displeasure, and only comforted: "Your Majesty, people have to look forward, don't hurt themselves."

Princess Luxiang looked around and suddenly interrupted: "Father, someone is disrespectful to Father!" She said it rightly, and even felt that the emperor would definitely punish Ye Hao after hearing it.

"Oh? What's the matter, someone dares to be disrespectful to the emperor? Empress Jingde asked with interest, her eyes motioning for Jun Linchu to come over.

"After returning to her mother, Ye Hao, the fourth lady of the Ye family, actually collided with the princess, and did not apologize, saying that it was obvious that she was despising the imperial power and disrespecting her father!" The more Princess Luxiang spoke, the more excited she became, and the Ye Hao she said was like that heinous person.

"Oh, that's it?" The emperor's eagle eyes narrowed, and he glanced at Princess Luxiang, still questioning her words.

"Father, the son didn't lie to you, you can go and summon Ye Hao, and the nobles present can also testify." Princess Luxiang said indignantly, but the emperor was here, and the nobles didn't dare to speak easily, so Concubine Xian said softly: "Your Majesty, the concubine saw that Ye Zhen was unwell, so she let her rest in place for a while, as for the collision with Princess Luxiang, the concubine didn't know very well."

In fact, the emperor can guess that it is definitely Princess Luxiang exaggerating the facts, who in the palace dares to anger Princess Luxiang? It's all according to her, Jun Lin Chu's eyes flashed suddenly, and it seemed that Ye Hao had indeed seen what he was conspiring with Gu Xuege, he clenched his fists, and echoed: "Father, regardless of whether what Sister Luxiang said is true or not, you will find out when you call Ye Hao to ask."

The queen glanced at Jun Lin Chu in surprise, as if she couldn't think of why he wanted to help Princess Luxiang speak, the emperor waved his hand, and said casually: "Then I will summon me to ask."

The father-in-law brought Ye Hao over after a while, along the way, Ye Hao thought of countless possibilities, always did not know what the emperor called her, seeing the emperor and the queen, Ye Hao first saluted, the praise in the queen's eyes was not hidden, this Ye Hao was very regular and even very familiar, her back was very straight, and her face was dignified.

The queen softened her voice and said, "You are Ye Hao?" Why did you run into Princess Ruhsian? "Actually, the queen's good attitude towards Ye Hao, on the one hand, is because her first impression of Ye Hao is good, she looks gentle and has the humility she should have, and on the other hand, she is Ye Meng's daughter, if she can pull her and Chu'er together, then Chu'er has Ye Meng's support.

Ye Hao breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, her face was flat, and she told the matter again, the queen listened, her face became more and more ugly, and even some precursors of anger, and the emperor was also furious, Princess Luxiang took the opportunity to say: "Father, mother, do you say it's Ye Hao's fault?"

"Shut up, shut up!" The emperor suddenly became embarrassed, his eyes were cold, and he scolded angrily: "How can you have half of the royal face in such a manner, and you dare to complain to me and shout grievances."

Princess Luxiang was stunned, she was anxious to refute, Ping Zhaoyi quickly covered her mouth, and hurriedly laughed: "Don't be angry, the concubine will definitely teach Luxiang a good lesson, Luxiang is young, I hope Your Majesty will not be angry."

Ping Zhaoyi met with the wind and rudder, and saw that the emperor's color was wrong, so he immediately grabbed Lu Xiang, saving her from trouble, and the queen laughed and mocked, "Yo, Ping Zhaoyi stood up at this time to educate Lu Xiang well, and when she showed her arrogant complaint, Ping Zhaoyi didn't stop her, could it be that her sister educates Lu Xiang like this on weekdays?" ”

Ping Zhaoyi was so ashamed that she was speechless by the queen, so she had to grit her teeth secretly, Princess Luxiang's eyes were full of displeasure, it was clearly Ye Hao's fault, her father had always doted on her, how could she scold her for Ye Hao, the more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she became.

Jun Lin Chu suddenly said, "Miss Ye has been staying in the pavilion?" He deliberately tested Ye Hao, wanting to see her expression, but Ye Hao had been waiting for his question, showing a shy smile, she said, "The courtier girl is not feeling well, so she went to the toilet," she frowned, and continued: "The courtier is puzzled,"

The queen raised her eyebrows and said softly: "What's the problem, let's talk about it."

"When the courtiers came out, they didn't see the trace of the palace maid, in desperation, the courtiers touched the road by themselves, fortunately they met two kind-hearted palace maids to send the courtiers back to the pavilion, so the courtiers did not dare to move around at will, the courtiers really did not despise the emperor's majesty, and did not mean to offend the princess."

At the same time, this also told Jun Linchu that he had never been to the rockery, but Junlin Chu was not easy to deceive, but he was not allowed to ask more questions in the presence of the emperor and everyone, so he simply laughed and ignored it.

The queen said: "Since it is a misunderstanding, forget it if it is solved, Lu Xiang will have to spend a lot of time on Ping Zhaoyi in the future, after all, she is a royal princess," she looked at the emperor and suggested kindly: "Your Majesty, why don't we go to the banquet."

The emperor didn't speak, so he simply agreed, and Princess Luxiang was stared at by Ping Zhaoyi with her eyes, and she also said some lessons in her words. She stared at Ye Hao viciously, eager to tear apart Ye Hao's calm and waveless face, and she swore that she must make Ye Hao pay the price.

Ye Hao didn't care about her eyes at all, she silently followed behind the nobles, automatically omitting their inquiring eyes, Jun Lin Chu kept staring at Ye Hao all the way, this girl was very clever when she spoke, and she looked dignified and gentle, was she really eavesdropping on her own conversation? Or did the palace maid just happen to be looking for her? Whatever the reason, it doesn't matter anymore, because the palace maid is dead.

"Your Majesty." The father-in-law hurriedly ran over and whispered: "Back to the emperor, the slave heard that a palace maid was drowned in the lotus pond at the rockery."

"What? Outrageous! When the emperor heard this, he frowned, his eagle eyes narrowed unhappily, and a faint dangerous light flowed in it, and he ordered in a cold voice: "Why don't you go and find out who the murderer is?" What are you doing here! ”

The father-in-law looked at the queen in embarrassment, and then said: "Back to the emperor, the dead palace maid is a palace maid at this plum banquet, and the cause of death is that she was pushed down the lotus pond and died."

"Okay, good, you dare to commit murder in the harem!" The emperor stretched out his voice and said, "Queen, you are in good hands." In fact, the emperor did some small things, but he just died an inconsequential palace maid, and the queen suffered, but in the current situation, the queen only swallowed her anger and promised: "Your Majesty, the concubine will definitely find out the real murderer."

The emperor snorted coldly, and his hand lightly covered the back of the queen's hand, as if making excuses for Fang Cai's gaffe, and comforted him softly: "Queen, I am angry for a while, I hope the queen doesn't care."

The emperor's feelings are confusing, on the surface it looks very affectionate, but in fact, they respect each other like guests, and it can even be said that they are like passers-by, but at the moment, the queen's impeccable smile is incomparably bright, this is acting, what women who survive in the harem must learn.

Ye Hao saw the emperor's pretending to be affectionate, hooked her lips and smiled, if she guessed correctly, the dead palace maid must be the one who took her to the toilet, and her death must be inseparable from King's Landing Chu.

The emperor and queen took their seats, Ye Hao and other nobles sat down in turn, the palace ladies served dishes one after another, and the queen pointed to one of the delicate-looking pastries, and said: "This is plum blossom cake, the favorite pastry of the palace, everyone try it."

After all the noble ladies tasted it, they all felt good, and even the emperor couldn't help but admire it, and praised the queen again and again, it looks like this, the current atmosphere is still quite good, but Ye Hao feels that there is still an unknown storm waiting for her.
