Swap, the involutionary regent palace fight also forced me to rebel

Her hair was meticulously groomed, her clothes were tight, and her face was smeared with rouge, but she had thick dark circles under her eyes that could not be concealed.

Nan Yingzhi was shocked. After not seeing Yun Ji for a few days, why did he look like he hadn’t slept well for a long time?

Thinking about the calming incense in the palace that had once prevented her from getting up, Nan Yingzhi suddenly understood something.

She turned sideways and asked Ling Feng, "Do you carry the calming incense in the mansion with you?"

I never thought that I would have to bring soothing incense when I go out. Ling Feng looked embarrassed and said, "No."

Seeing the dark circles under Yunji's eyes, Nan Yingzhi ordered, "Ask Lingyu to go and get some."

Although he didn't know why, Ling Feng still did as he was told. He turned around and talked to Ling Yu.

Although he knew that he shouldn't stare at Nan Yingzhi, Yun Ji still couldn't control his gaze.

His eyes were like sunflowers chasing the sunlight, uncontrollably chasing after Nan Yingzhi.

If it wasn't against etiquette, he even wanted to rush forward and stuff the purse into Nan Yingzhi's hand.

Observing that Yunji's hand was under the table, pinching his purse, Lan Fu turned a blind eye and quietly looked away.

These past few days, the young lady occasionally paid her respects to the Queen and the Queen Mother, played the piano from time to time, and spent the rest of her time concentrating on needlework.

He made one purse after another and finally picked out the best one. Now he brought it to the banquet eagerly, his eyes still glued to the Regent.

What it means is self-evident.

For the first time ever, her young lady fell in love with her husband's brother.

It's neither right nor reasonable.

However, Lan Fu did not want to persuade the young lady to "love the emperor, not the prince."

Because, these days, the only thing that allowed the young lady to remain normal was Lan Fu's words, "The Regent will feel bad if you are like this."

But people say that the Regent is very picky, has extremely high requirements for his lovers, and is as hard-hearted as a man who is good at destroying women with ruthless means.

It seems that the young lady's love life is bitter.

Missing "Alian" so much, Yun Ting quietly looked for the beautiful Lian in the crowd.

Although the two had had an unpleasant argument a few days ago, Yun Ting believed that he was just drunk and a little out of control, and that it did not hurt their relationship.

Seeing Nan Yingzhi and Yun Ji's eyes going back and forth like a tug of war between them, Yun Ting couldn't help but feel angry and jealous.

How could his "Alian" look at others?

"Lady Lian," Yun Ting ignored the etiquette of harem status and ordered Gao Shu to arrange an extra seat next to him: "Come sit in the front."

Yun Ji was overjoyed to be able to sit closer to Nan Yingzhi. His eyes were gentle, as beautiful as a freshly bloomed flower: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the seat."

"Your Majesty," relying on the presence of her brother Song Cheng, Concubine Shu expressed her dissatisfaction with this decision and said to Yun Ting coquettishly, "Sister Lian's seat is higher than mine."

Not wanting to offend her, Yun Ting turned the jade ring and said, "Then... Lady Lian, please sit below you."

Giving a beauty a position just below the imperial concubine is clearly against palace rules.

As the mistress of the harem, the queen wanted to persuade her, but as soon as she said "Your Majesty", Yun Ting reached out and stopped her from speaking.

"A few days ago, I accidentally frightened Lady Lian. Today I am trying to make amends," Yun Ting said to Yun Ji, thinking he was showing his affection. "I heard that Lady Lian has been feeling unwell recently. Is she feeling better now?"

The days of taking leave were just complaints without any reason. Apart from having trouble sleeping, Yun Ji was fine.

His expression was calm, and he was about to say, "I'm feeling better now, Your Majesty, don't worry," when he suddenly felt a pain in his lower abdomen.

It felt like I was hit hard from a distance for no apparent reason. I felt uncomfortable for no apparent reason.

After calming himself down, Yun Ji slightly bent down and said his usual excuse: "No problem."

Seeing that there was still an empty seat, Yun Ting asked Gao Shu, "Whose seat is that?"

Hearing the question, Gao Shu hurriedly checked and reported as soon as he got the answer: "It's from the Imperial Master."

"Yes," Yun Ting raised his eyebrows, remembering that the Imperial Master would attend the palace banquet after praying for blessings during the Mid-Autumn Festival. "Why don't you see the Imperial Master?"

"The Imperial Master said he won't come tonight."

"He just said he couldn't come, but nothing else?"

"He said he was tired and went back home to rest early."

Yun Ting didn't say anything more. He raised his glass, made an impassioned speech, and then announced "the banquet was about to begin."

Since she had discussed this with Lingfeng before, Nan Yingzhi knew that the Imperial Master had excused himself from "returning home" in order to go to Anhui Palace in advance to wait for her and Yunji.

Since the Imperial Master was waiting, it was certainly not convenient for her to stay at the banquet for long. Nan Yingzhi observed the situation silently, planning to leave after filling her stomach.

The palace dishes were diverse, and she would feel like she was missing out if she ate one bite less. Unfortunately, she had to make a quick decision this time.

Nan Yingzhi quickly took a bite of each dish and stood up to say goodbye: "Your Majesty, I am not able to hold my liquor. I will take my leave first."

It was obvious that Nan Yingzhi didn't drink a single sip of wine. "Can't hold my liquor" was definitely an excuse, needless to say, but Yun Ting didn't care much about it.

To be precise, I care, but I can't get into it too deeply.

With his mind focused on Lady Lian, Yun Ting waved his hand and said, "My Royal Brother, take care. I won't see you off."

Yun Ji felt an inexplicable pain in his lower abdomen. Faced with a table full of delicious food, he had no appetite and even felt nauseous.

Yun Ji didn't want to stay any longer. Seeing Nan Yingzhi walk out of the palace gate, she immediately stood up, covered her lips with a handkerchief and coughed twice: "Your Majesty, I feel unwell and want to go back to the palace to rest."

His face was cold and pale, and no matter how you looked at him, he revealed a hint of heartbreaking fragility.

Originally, Yun Ting wanted to keep Lady Lian, but his heart softened for a moment. He said with a hint of meaning: "Take good care of her. I will come to see you when I have time."

Yun Ji's stomach churned when Yun Ting's greasy eyes scanned him. He saluted and walked out quickly.

Sure enough, Nan Yingzhi was waiting not far away.

Seeing Yun Ji coming out, Nan Yingzhi waved her hand, indicating that they should keep a safe distance and go into Anhui Palace first.

Yun Ji didn't understand. He thought Nan Yingzhi was calling him over.

Although he was not feeling well, Yun Ji still forced himself to jog over.

The dull pain in his abdomen became more severe, to the point that Yun Ji couldn't even straighten his back. He could only bend over slightly to barely resist the pain.

Perhaps it was because Nan Yingzhi was present that Yun Ji wanted to show weakness for the first time. He reached out his hand cautiously and gently tugged at Nan Yingzhi's sleeve.

Nan Yingzhi felt unhappy when she saw Yunji misunderstood her gesture and ran all the way here.

There are a lot of people here. What should I do if I get seen?

Just as she was about to distance herself from him, Yun Ji suddenly grabbed her sleeve.

Noticing that Yun Ji's lips were pale, Nan Yingzhi didn't care about being angry and held his hand in reverse: "What's wrong?"

Although he was wearing a lot of clothes, Yun Ji's hands were as cold as ice.

Feeling the warmth of Nan Yingzhi's palm, Yun Ji felt warm in his heart, but he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Should he say "My stomach aches, as if I was bitten by thousands of ants, and the pain is so severe that I can't even straighten my back"? Would Nan Yingzhi think he was being pretentious if he said that? ...

The two were silent for a moment, and the atmosphere was awkward.

Just when Nan Yingzhi couldn't stand the silence anymore and wanted to ask something else, Yun Ji suddenly pushed Nan Yingzhi away forcefully.
