When Lu Meiluo and his party returned to the Mingguang Palace, the congratulatory gifts of the people in the harem were also delivered. Murong Hua naturally gave the most valuable things, exquisite silk and rare treasures, so that the people in the palace thought that the queen had even moved over the palace together, and the virtuous name naturally spread all over the harem, and the most important thing was to reach Yuan Yi's ears, which was the real "thanksgiving" she wanted Lu Meiluo.

Even Liu Guiren, who didn't show up in the morning, also sent congratulatory gifts and asked people to come over, saying that she had been unwell recently and would come to visit in a few days, and the maid beside her also mentioned the empress dowager in the palace.

Lu Meiluo then understood the meaning of the congratulatory gift sent by the Liu noble, it turned out that she wanted her to intervene in this matter, how much she knew about the affairs of the Empress Dowager, the first emperor was alive to control the government with one hand, very strong, his father was because the capital was not stable, he asked for a decree to go to the clouds, and three years ago I heard that he suddenly let go of the government and handed it over to Yuan Yi, and then he no longer heard the news of the Empress Dowager, everyone said that he was in the palace for a long time.

Now that this Liu Guiren deliberately mentioned it to Lu Meiluo, he must have wanted to use her curiosity to uncover this matter, and Liu Guiren was afraid that he was a little anxious, and he would want to use her to come forward. I think this Liu Guiren is the person of the Queen Mother.

Lu Meiluo is not a deep boudoir woman who is completely ignorant of the world, her father once said such a sentence after hearing the Empress Dowager let go: It seems to be calm, but there is a lot of blood behind it. She didn't understand how much effort Yuan Yi had put in for this transfer of power, but she had read history books, even some wild histories, and those bloody histories were actually the same. She wouldn't ask about the past, and she didn't have the right to ask.

originally wanted to refuse Liu Qianqian's visit, but after thinking about it, it was better to explore the bottom of this palace, so he agreed.

Three days later, in the evening, Liu Guiren really came to the Mingguang Palace, at that time Lu Meiluo was in the library to choose the ancient books to be read in the next few days, it happened that Yuan Yi was also there, when Qin Rou sent someone to report, Lu Meiluo was also surprised, Yuan Yi said that he happened to be free, so he went back to the Mingguang Hall with Lu Meiluo.

Yuan Yi and Lu Meiluo returned to the Mingguang Palace, and saw Liu Qianqian sitting under the pavilion in the courtyard, and when they saw Yuan Yi and Lu Meiluo coming back together, they immediately got up and saluted Yuan Yi, and after saluting, Lu Meiluo also saluted Liu Qianqian.

Yuan Yi saw that Liu Qianqian's expression did not change at all, as if he had seen an unrelated person, Lu Meiluo hurriedly beckoned Liu Qianqian into the hall: "Your Majesty, Sister Liu, please come in." ”

Entering the hall, Yuan Yi didn't speak, but Liu Qianqian started talking: "My sister has been in the palace for a few days, and my sister just came to visit my sister, my sister won't mind, right?" ”

"Where is my sister, it should be my sister who went to visit my sister first, but I heard that my sister is inconvenient to see guests these days, so Merlot didn't bother my sister." Lu Melo replied.

"My palace is a little deserted, and I'm afraid that I will snub my sister. Is my sister still used to life after entering the palace? ”

"Thank you sister, I'm getting used to it."

"That's good." Then he turned his head and said to Yuan Yi, "Your Majesty, it just so happens that you are here today, can the concubine ask you for something?" ”

Yuan Yi didn't speak, and Liu Qianqian continued: "The Empress Dowager has been in poor health recently, and the concubines want to serve the left and right, to fulfill their filial piety, and they have done their best to raise them back then. ”

When Lu Meiluo heard this, he realized that Liu Qianqian was not here to see him today, but to wait for Yuan Yi, and it was still for the Empress Dowager. Yuan Yi still didn't speak when he heard this, and drank tea by himself. After a while, he spoke:

"Liu Guiren, I have made it very clear to you three years ago, you can only have one identity in this life, if you are not a nobleman, if you are not a sinner, since you chose a nobleman, always remember your identity, don't do anything beyond the norm, this is my last warning. In the future, I will do it myself. ”

"Your Majesty, the concubines just want to do their best, after all, the Empress Dowager has raised her concubines for ten years."

"Since you want to do your filial piety, then recite Buddhist scriptures in your palace for a year and pray for the queen mother, and there is no need to say anything else." Yuan Yi said impatiently.

"One year", this is equivalent to detaining Liu Guiren, Lu Meiluo thought to himself.

"The concubine obeys." Liu Qianqian has no choice but to comply, she didn't think that today's request Yuan Yi will not be approved, and she will even be furious, but she can't sit idly by, in this palace, the Queen Mother is already very pitiful, imprisoned, and the old people who follow have rebelled and betrayed, and walked away, although she didn't agree with the Queen Mother's approach back then, but now she is the only one left who is still thinking about the Queen Mother, she can't sit idly by, even if she is imprisoned together! But she finally underestimated Yuan Yi's hatred, which was too heavy to cut a gap at all.

After Liu Qianqian left, Yuan Yi was also in a bad mood, and was silent for a long time, Lu Meiluo felt uncomfortable when she looked at it, but she also knew that it was about the Queen Mother, and she couldn't ask.

After dinner, Yuan Yi said that he was going to take her out for a walk, and only Mo Xiu was taken with him. Yuan Yi took her on a secluded path, there was no one on the road, and when she walked outside a palace gate, Yuan Yi stopped.

"Luo'er, do you know where this is?" Yuan Yi asked suddenly.

"Where is this, brother?" Lu Melo asked rhetorically.

"This is the place I hate the most in this palace, if it weren't for Liu Qianqian mentioning it again today, I feel like I've forgotten that there is another person in the palace that I hate to the core." Yuan Yi said lightly, "Back then, she threatened the lives of my father and mother, forced me to sit on the throne, and controlled me for another three years, she single-handedly rewrote my fate, how can I not hate her?" ”

Lu Meiluo didn't know that Yuan Yi had become the emperor in this way, no wonder he had no news after he left, and the news he heard again was: He has become the emperor. She asked her father why this was, and his father told her: it was fate.

Lu Meiluo looked at Yuan Yi and clenched his hand: "Hate is a concern, only if you don't hate, can you let yourself go." Isn't that right, brother? ”

"It's not easy to say if you don't hate her, but watching her live alone within this wall for the rest of her life makes me feel more comfortable." Yuan Yi turned his head to Lu Meiluo and said: "Luo'er, don't worry about anything about Liu Qianqian in the future, she used to be the empress dowager, she had nothing to do with you before, and she won't have anything to do with it in the future."

"Luo'er understands."

Lu Meiluo looked at the palace gate, the palace was quiet, not at all like the residence of the Empress Dowager, who was once dominant, perhaps the Empress Dowager was too greedy and always wanted to control the world, which made the descendants of the Yuan family hate her so much.

It was getting dark, and the two of them returned to the Hall of Light along the same path.
