Wen Jin became more and more confused after hearing Xiao Yuchen's words.
Xiao Yuchen must have known something that she didn't know...but now, he didn't want to tell her.
"We are husband and wife, we shouldn't hide anything. What do you know? What have you experienced? Tell me!" Wen Jin asked.
Xiao Yuchen gently tucked her broken hair behind her ears, and gently stroked her smooth cheeks with his rough fingers, like touching a rare treasure.
"You have a good rest. I still have some things to deal with. I will come with you later."
Xiao Yuchen let her go, stood up and walked out.
"Stop! Xiao Yuchen, please speak clearly! Who wants to hurt me?" Wen Jin stood up and said.
Xiao Yuchen ignored her and strode to the entrance of the palace, "Just stay here and don't go anywhere."
"Come back! Come back!" Wen Jin called to him.
But Xiao Yuchen actually strode away.
Wen Jin: "..."
What's going on?
Could it be that Xiao Yuchen was also "soul-pierced"? Is he not him anymore?
As soon as this idea came to his mind, Wen Jin shook his head and denied it, "That's impossible... The way he looked at me, it was clearly still him. This kind of arbitrary and self-willed character in situations is actually him."
The key is, what happened to him?
"From his tone, will this matter threaten my life?" Wen Jin said to himself.
As soon as she finished speaking, the palace servants serving the little princess filed in.
They brought Yue'er in.
"Where are the emperor and the prince?" Wen Jin asked.
They probably knew that Wen Jin came in through the window. No one showed any surprise when they saw her in the palace.
Palace man Fu Shen said, "The emperor led the prince and the imperial master to leave together. The emperor also told us that the empress is very tired from running around for days and should rest early."
Wen Jin looked suspicious.
But the palace servant handed Yue'er to her, and Yue'er woke up again at some unknown time, staring at her curiously with a pair of round eyes.
Wen Jin couldn't help but feel soft when she looked at her daughter's clean and pure eyes.
She kicked off her shoes, hugged her daughter, and lay on the large bed.
Let her rest, just rest!
She held her daughter in her arms and occupied the big bed, leaving him with nowhere to sleep when he came back! Let him be conceited! snort!
Xiao Yuchen came to the imperial study room in the middle of the night.
He told Yu'er to go back to the East Palace to sleep, but left Zhou Lingfeng alone.
The imperial study room at night was a bit more quiet and solemn than during the day.
Xiao Yuchen looked at Zhou Lingfeng, who was also a little tired, and asked, "How hard has the Imperial Master been lately?"
Zhou Lingfeng cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I don't feel like it's hard for me to follow and serve you."
"What have Jin'er been busy with recently? Why are you and the empress back? Where is Taifu Han?" Xiao Yuchen asked.
Zhou Lingfeng said hurriedly, "Taifu Han spent too much energy today and it is difficult to come back in a small amount of time... And the empress got the news that something happened to the emperor... and she was anxious to come back, so she asked Pindao to try to bring the empress back."
After Zhou Lingfeng finished speaking, he glanced at Xiao Yuchen suspiciously.
Xiao Yuchen smiled, "Do you think I'm in trouble?"
Zhou Lingfeng lowered his head and said nothing.
Xiao Yuchen saw his lips quivering.
"What are you talking about? Are you calculating? I'm fine. I'm just worried about Jin'er... When Zhou Guoshi approached the Supreme Emperor, his intention was Jin'er. You were interested in Jin'er's fate. Am I right?"
Zhou Lingfeng trembled all over and knelt down, "Your Majesty... Pindao was obsessed with things at first. Fortunately, he was rescued by the empress, and he found his way back. Pindao is now loyal to the empress and has no rebellious heart!"
Xiao Yuchen looked at him with a smile, "I believe in Imperial Master Zhou, otherwise, I would not have called Imperial Master here tonight. Imperial Master originally came here for Jin'er, and you should know that Jin'er has an extraordinary background."
Zhou Lingfeng's heart tightened, and he looked at Xiao Yuchen suspiciously, "Your Majesty... what do you mean?"
"Master, please don't waste my time by pretending to be confused with me," Xiao Yuchen's smile sank with a majestic expression, "The queen is not a member of this dynasty. How did you confuse the emperor in the first place? You told him that Jin'er came from the 'fairy world'. And , she is the secret to the fairy world!"
Zhou Lingfeng kowtowed quickly, "I am talking nonsense...I am already aware of my mistake."
"I don't mean to blame you..."
Xiao Yuchen stepped down from the throne and stood in front of Zhou Lingfeng, "You and Han Xian have been following the Queen. You know what the Queen has been doing..."
Zhou Lingfeng's breathing was rapid and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"The Queen built a girls' school and improved agriculture and the economy. She overcame all difficulties and promoted the voyage business, making the country of Daliang rich and powerful, and the people are better fed and clothed than before."
"During the war against Qi, the Queen tried her best to help the Emperor shorten the war... In war, what is fought is national power, money, soldiers and horses, and the lives of soldiers. There are also many invisible people who are fighting. Suffering from the war..."
Zhou Lingfeng was sweating on his forehead as he said anxiously, "Although the empress is not from my court, she has really done too many things for my court!"
Xiao Yuchen cleared his throat, "Do you think I'm afraid of her?"
Zhou Lingfeng was slightly startled and looked at Xiao Yuchen suspiciously.
Xiao Yuchen sneered lightly, "You underestimate me... If she is willing, I can give her the throne and make her the first empress in the history of our dynasty."
Zhou Lingfeng's body trembled suddenly, "What does the emperor mean?"
"Do you believe in the 'Way of Heaven'?" Xiao Yuchen asked.
Zhou Lingfeng choked, "Of course, Your Majesty! This is what a poor Taoist has mastered!"
Xiao Yuchen took a deep breath and said slowly, "If the 'Way of Heaven' says that the Queen has changed the course of this world and caused chaos in this time and space... what do you think?"
Zhou Lingfeng was speechless and stared for a moment, speechless.
Xiao Yuchen's eyes were firm and he said, "If 'Tiandao' wants to destroy her, I will become the enemy of 'Tiandao'! If this world cannot tolerate her, I will become the enemy of this world!"
Zhou Lingfeng swallowed hard, then pinched his fingers and widened his eyes.
"No wonder Pindao and Taifu Han couldn't calculate... They only knew that something happened in Kyoto, but they couldn't figure out what happened... Did the emperor get the 'apocalypse'?" Zhou Lingfeng asked.
Xiao Yuchen nodded, "Is the Imperial Master willing to help me and save the Queen?"
"Of course! But... how to save her?" After Zhou Lingfeng agreed, he ran into trouble. If Heaven wanted to destroy the queen, how could they, mortals, be enemies of Heaven?
"Restore the original order of this era," Xiao Yuchen lowered his eyes and said, "Close women's schools and let female officials leave the court. If women should support their husbands and raise children, then let them each take care of their own duties."
Zhou Lingfeng raised his head and looked at Xiao Yuchen, "That is the hard work of the empress for so many years..."
"Why don't I know this?" Xiao Yuchen lowered his eyes.
The imperial study room was brightly lit, but his expression was dark and unclear.
"If we don't put things right, she will be killed... I can't just watch her..." Xiao Yuchen frowned.
"What if..." Zhou Lingfeng hesitated, "What if I tell the queen?"
Xiao Yuchen suddenly raised his head and stared at Zhou Lingfeng with sharp eyes.
"The poor man made a mistake..."
"Please resign." Xiao Yuchen waved his hand.
Zhou Lingfeng had no choice but to resign and exit the imperial study.
Xiao Yuchen explained, "From today on, the Imperial Master cannot enter the palace unless summoned!"
