"Auntie, I'm begging you......"

Ji Guiren's eyes turned red as she spoke, and in that most desperate time for her, it was Jing Wan who filled the void in her heart. At this time, Xia Chutao wanted to take Jing Wan away, but Ji Guiren really found it difficult to accept.

"I ......"

Xia Chutao saw Ji Guiren like this, and he was also in trouble, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

She hesitantly looked at the Jing Wan in her hand, and she also felt distressed.

"If my aunt wants more time to spend with Jing Wan, then my aunt can move to Weiyang Palace. I can go to His Majesty and talk about it, and His Majesty will probably agree......"

Ji Guiren suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said.

After that, Ji Guiren's tears couldn't help but fall, like beads with broken threads, falling down in a flutter.

"Wow, this noble person can't be like this, right?"

"Yes, in the end, Xiao Tao'er is Jingwan's biological mother?"

"yes, yes."

"But this is also what Zhao Yufeng meant, Xiao Tao'er is looking for Zhao Yufeng, right?"

Fans were also chattering about this matter in the barrage, but Xia Chutao couldn't listen to a word.

The matter in front of him is complicated, how can it be said clearly in one sentence or two, Xia Chutao thought about it, sighed deeply, and shook his head helplessly.

Jin Ling, who was on the side, saw Xia Chutao like this, and hurriedly comforted.

"Auntie, Ji Guiren is also helpless. In the end, this matter is a decision made by His Majesty, and Ji Guiren may not be able to call the shots. ”

Xia Chutao also felt that Jin Ling's words were reasonable, her eyes darkened, and her voice was faint.

"Yes...... In the end, it was also difficult for her. ”

"Let's go, go to Your Majesty's, I have other things to tell Your Majesty."

Seeing Xia Chutao's gloomy expression, Jin Ling couldn't persuade too much, nodded, and walked out of Weiyang Palace with Xia Chutao.

At this time, Zhao Yufeng was in the imperial study to review the slashers, and Xia Chutao also went directly to the imperial study, not wanting to delay anything more in this matter.

Xia Chutao saw Sanquan's father-in-law standing at the door of the imperial study, so he saluted Sanquan's father-in-law and said.

"Sanquan father-in-law."

Sanquan's father-in-law was not surprised by the arrival of Xia Chu Tao, and asked Xia Chu Tao with a smile.

"Xia Shangyi is here, is she feeling better today?"

Xia Chutao also smiled reservedly and replied.

"The blessing of the Gonggong is already good."

"That's good."

As he spoke, Sanquan's father-in-law paused, and this was the continuation.

"Auntie is here to find Your Majesty, right? Your Majesty is looking at the slashes handed over by the ministers at this time, and my aunt asks me to wait for the old slave to go in and report it. ”

At the beginning of summer, the peach only bowed slightly.

"I'm tired of my father-in-law."

Sanquan's father-in-law quickly walked out of the imperial study and said.

"Auntie, please come in."

"Grandpa Xie."

The last time I saw Zhao Yufeng, it was at a dinner party.

Xia Chutao still remembers the way Zhao Yufeng looked at her at that time, it seemed that it was the first time he looked at her with such disgust and hatred, and such a sharp gaze on her body was so terrifying that it had penetrated her.

At this time, Xia Chutao was very apprehensive, so she could only slowly come to Zhao Yufeng and kneel down in a proper manner.

"Slaves and maids see Your Majesty."

Xia Chutao saw Zhao Yufeng who was sitting on the chair and looking at the slasher, her expression was serious, she wanted to say a few more words, but she didn't dare to say it, so she could only wait for Zhao Yufeng's reply.

"You're here."

Zhao Yufeng looked up at Xia Chutao, his dark eyes were unwavering.

For some reason, Xia Chutao felt as if she was completely estranged from Zhao Yufeng.

Zhao Yufeng in front of her, as if she had opened a wall distance from her, she could see the opposite side, but she couldn't cross it, when did it become like this, Xia Chutao couldn't say, she only felt a slight bitterness in her heart.

"Something?"

Zhao Yufeng finished reading the slash in his hand, and put the cinnabar pen aside, so he asked Xia Chutao so lightly.

"Your Majesty, the slave maid has a matter, and I ask Your Majesty to agree."

Zhao Yufeng slowly leaned back in his chair, his face was indifferent, and he seemed to have no interest in what Xia Chutao was going to say next.

"Tell me, something."

Xia Chutao hesitated for a while, and then slowly said.

"The slave maid thinks that the intrigue in this harem is really not suitable for the slave maid, the slave maid, want to go out of the palace."

After Xia Chutao finished speaking, he couldn't help but look up at Zhao Yufeng, who thought he would be angry, but now he had a calm face, as if he had known that Xia Chutao would raise this.

Zhao Yufeng has been detaining her in this palace, and these things should not be said in front of him. Xia Chutao didn't know why Zhao Yufeng could be so calm at this time, as if she hadn't spoken.

When it was such calm, it made Xia Chutao's heart a little colder.

Silence has been filling the two of them, the entire study is deathly silent, Xia Chutao can even clearly hear the "crackling" sound of the wicks of the surrounding candles burning,

Zhao Yufeng finally sighed deeply, and looked at Xia Chutao with a faint gaze.

Xia Chutao didn't know what the emotion in his eyes was, but he vaguely saw a few traces of sadness, but it was also in an instant, and it was gone.

"Yes, I promise you."

After a long time, Zhao Yufeng spoke, but the moment he spoke, his voice was full of vicissitudes and even a little hoarse.

Xia Chutao's heart moved, and he took advantage of Zhao Yufeng's relieved gap to continue.

"In that case, Your Majesty, there is one more thing about the slave maid."

Zhao Yufeng's eyes flickered slightly.

"What?"

"Jin Ling has always been by the slave's side, and the slave is used to it. If she stays alone in the palace, I'm afraid that she won't be able to find a good errand for the next one, so if she leaves the palace, the slave wants to take her with her. ”

The light in Zhao Yufeng's eyes sank again in an instant.

"Jin Ling? Thinking about it, Jin Ling is now almost at the age of leaving the palace, and it doesn't hurt for you to take her out this time, just go to the Internal Affairs Office to report before leaving the palace. ”

Zhao Yufeng said lightly.

"It's just, Jing Bang, what are you going to do?"

Just these two words Xia Chutao felt very worried when she heard them, but she still had to say them to Zhao Yufeng.

"It's good to be by Ji Guiren's side, just stay, it just so happens that Ji Guiren can also think about it more. I just hope that Your Majesty can treat Jing Bang ...... kindly"

Xia Chutao's answer was a little surprised, but Zhao Yufeng still nodded.

"It's okay, Jing Wan has already inherited the title of princess, so I naturally won't treat it badly."

Xia Chutao smiled slightly bitterly.

"Yes, slave and maid thank Your Majesty Longen......"

At this moment, Sanquan's father-in-law ran in from the outside, looking panicked.

Seeing this, Zhao Yufeng frowned.

"What's so flustered? What a system! ”

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is not good, Cao Meiren...... Dead! ”

Xia Chutao's heart sank, only to feel that this thing came too suddenly, and he was slightly taken aback in his heart.

When Zhao Yufeng heard the news, he stood up, clenched his fists, and was silent for a while before speaking.

"What's going on?"

"Back to Your Majesty, according to the jailer guarding the dungeon, Cao Meiren hanged herself."

Zhao Yufeng slowly closed his eyes, he hadn't thought of such a result.

Thinking about it at this time, Cao Meiren's fluttering figure was everywhere.

At least, she did give him a good memory......

After pondering for a moment, Zhao Yufeng said slowly.

"Posthumously crown Cao Meimei as a concubine, and bury her according to the treatment of a concubine."

Xia Chutao vaguely felt that this matter was not good for her, so she tentatively asked Zhao Yufeng in front of her.

"Your Majesty, the slave is ...... thing"

Zhao Yufeng looked at Xia Chutao at this time, and two things in a row were really a little weak for him, and he felt physically and mentally exhausted.

"Cao Meiren's funeral has to be done, and it has always been a rule that the palace door is not opened. Your business, it's a little bit later......"

Zhao Yufeng said lightly.

"But—"

"I'm tired."

Zhao Yufeng's deep gaze came from above the high hall and poked straight at Xia Chutao's body, and such a cold gaze suddenly stopped all the words that Xia Chutao originally wanted to say.

In this regard, Xia Chutao can only be a compromise.

"Yes......"

"The slave and maid are gone."

Xia Chutao saluted Zhao Yufeng, but Zhao Yufeng waved his hand and didn't say anything.

Xia Chutao walked out of the imperial study and walked to Jin Ling's side with a less complicated mood.

Jin Ling asked when she saw Xia Chutao's complicated expression.

"Auntie, what's wrong?"

"I originally asked His Majesty to let me out of the palace."

Now Jin Ling was a little lost and muttered to herself.

"It's reasonable for my aunt to leave the palace...... It's just that after my aunt left the palace this time, she didn't know when she would be able to return to the palace to see us again. ”

After that, Jin Ling's eyes couldn't help but turn red.

Xia Chutao saw Jin Ling like this, and then laughed again.

"You stupid girl, how could I forget you, I have proposed to Your Majesty to take you out of the palace together, but there are some things in front of me that have been delayed."

When Jin Ling heard Xia Chutao's words, she was stunned for a while.

After a long time, Jin Ling came to her senses, and suddenly fell to her knees and cried bitterly.

"Aunt Xie, it's complete!"

It was the first time for Xia Chutao to see Jin Ling like this, so she hurriedly pulled Jin Ling up and said.

"Jin Ling, what are you doing!"

"Auntie, I didn't expect my aunt to mention this matter in front of His Majesty, if she can leave the palace early, it will be a great thing for the maid."

In fact, Jin Ling's mother has been seriously ill, and Xia Chutao knows about this matter, but she has never had a good reason to leave the palace, which also solves Jin Ling's worries.

"Okay, get up, when Cao Meiren's funeral is over, you can leave the palace."

Jin Ling was stunned when she heard this, and her face was shocked.

"Cao Meiren? This...... When is the thing? ”

"Just now."

Xia Chutao squinted her eyes, very meaningful.

"There is a big story about her death......"
