"Okay...if you want to play..." He was halfway through his words when he heard the sound of footsteps behind him. His eyebrows frowned instantly and he turned around abruptly. When he saw who was coming, the last bit of warmth in his eyes disappeared.

"Old Nine, since you have some free time, why don't you introduce the girl behind you?" After saying this, he smiled and walked towards Song Yunli.

Feng Muyan stretched out his long arms to block Shen Yingjun's way, "Your Majesty, please go back."

Shen Yingjun smiled awkwardly, leaned over and whispered in Feng Muyan's ear, "Old Nine, I heard that envoys from the Kingdom of Chu Nan will arrive in the capital in three days, and it seems that the leader is the Crown Prince of Chu Nan... Gu! Qing! Hong!" Seeing Feng Muyan stunned, Shen Yingjun chuckled, "It's late now, and I'm tired. I'll go back now." The moment he turned around, Shen Yingjun hooked Li Yue's ankle fiercely. Li Yue lost her balance and pounced on Song Yunli, her eyes full of fear.

Feng Muyan's eyes were filled with frost. He turned around and picked up Song Yunli, then blew Li Yue into the lake with a palm wind. Looking at Li Yue struggling in the lake, Song Yunli felt sympathy, but her little hand just tightly grasped the corner of Feng Muyan's clothes without saying a word.

"This girl is really naughty, let Old Nine deal with her." Shen Yingjun glanced at the lake and turned to leave.

"Li'er, you obviously have sympathy, why don't you plead for her?" Feng Muyan said calmly, staring at Li Yue who was becoming increasingly powerless in the lake. Song Yunli turned around and buried her head in Feng Muyan's chest. If she remembered correctly, the palace maid was the one who pretended to be a eunuch last time. She was the one who poisoned her sister's food. Good and evil will eventually be rewarded, but she didn't expect to die at the hands of her own master. Is there really humanity in this treacherous palace?

"Brother Mu, you must be very tired these years." Song Yunli murmured in Feng Muyan's chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, slightly closed her eyes and said softly: "Brother Mu, Li'er will sleep first, and when you wake up tomorrow, Li'er will tell you a story."

"good...."

As the two figures gradually disappeared into the distance, the lake returned to calm.

On the morning of the second day, all the maids and eunuchs in the palace were in a panic. Liyue, the maidservant beside the Queen, drowned inexplicably in the Chui Liu Lake. When the palace servants found her, she had been stiff for a long time. The most puzzling thing was that the Queen Mother ordered that the matter should not be investigated. Anyone who dared to make irresponsible comments would be severely punished. For a while, the palace servants all sighed that human life is insignificant and they should keep their mouths shut and not say too much.

"Ajun, I heard that the maidservant beside you drowned?" The emperor, who was resting with his eyes closed, suddenly spoke. Shen Yingjun, who was massaging his shoulders, froze and stopped, lowering her eyelids and said calmly, "She bumped into Old Nine yesterday and fell into the lake. When I left, I handed her over to Old Nine to deal with."

The emperor slowly opened his eyes, turned around and looked at Shen Yingjun deeply. Since when did these eyes lose their innocence? Since when did the smile on the corners of her mouth always have the same arc? Where was the lively and cheerful Ah Jun when they first met?

"Your Majesty, why do you look at me like this? If you don't believe what I say, you can go ask Lao Jiu." Shen Yingjun raised her lotus steps slightly and poured a cup of the best pre-rain Longjing tea to the emperor. Then she suddenly thought of something, "The little girl of the Song family is really lucky. She has been with Lao Jiu for so long, but she is not hurt at all and is becoming more and more beautiful."
