Quick Wear: Host, please be more restrained

When Xia Wei came to the palace today, she saw Ye Qiao in a good mood and couldn't help but smile. It seemed that the matter between Nan Ci and Ye Yanyun did not cause her too much harm.

When Ye Qiao saw Xia Wei coming, she knew that there must be something important, so she immediately asked the palace maids to leave.

"My lady, there was a piece of land in the south of the city that exploded with a loud noise for no reason recently, and there was also a fire. Because the south of the city is desolate, the news has not spread."

When Ye Qiao heard this, she felt as if this was a description of gunpowder. Gunpowder should not be produced in this dynasty.

Could it be her?

"Also, the king of Yelang is seriously ill, and the hostage may have to return home." Xia Wei said.

Speaking of Helian Yu, Ye Qiao remembered that he hadn't seen him for a long time since the autumn hunt. He wondered if the little boy had grown up?

The system heard what Ye Qiao was thinking and couldn't help complaining, "Not only have you grown up, but your feelings towards me have also deteriorated. Just wait and see how the host will be cremated?" Why is he still a little excited?

Seeing that Ye Qiao did not react much, Xia Wei continued, "Some time ago, a traitor appeared in the pavilion. The Southern Emperor should have known about the cooperation between Lianxiang Pavilion and the Eighth Prince."

Wait, Ye Qiao seemed to have heard something. The traitor in the pavilion should be Nanci's man. Then this should be the reason why Nanci was absent-minded that day, right?

Ye Qiao calculated that she had been here for five years, and Nan Ci might have grown up in a place she didn't know about. As an emperor, she was suspicious by nature, so it should be said that her training was quite useful.

Xia Wei looked at Ye Qiao and asked, "Madam, what should we do next?"

Lianxiang Pavilion really needs the Eighth Prince's money, and the best way to bring him down is to cooperate with him.

"Continue to cooperate and keep an eye on the land in the north of the city. It would be best if we could find out who knows where the people are." Ye Qiao said after thinking for a long time. He didn't know who was using the gunpowder.

……

"Oh, isn't this my sister?" Ye Yanyun, in her plain dress, was very eye-catching in the flowery imperial garden. As the saying goes, if you want to look pretty, you have to dress in mourning clothes. It was true.

"Why didn't you wake up after that slap last time?" Ye Qiao didn't bother to be polite with her and started to mock her directly.

"Ye Qiaofei, you are just an orphan without a mother, and I am the most talented woman in the capital. What qualifications do you have to be so high and mighty all the time?" Since being named the most talented woman, Ye Yanyun felt for the first time the honor that belonged to her alone in this dynasty.

When Ye Qiao heard this, he was too lazy to talk nonsense with her and wanted to get started directly. Ye Qiao has always believed that action should be used instead of brain.

Ye Yanyun looked at Ye Qiao who was about to go forward and stepped back repeatedly. Ye Qiao directly ordered Xiao Tao to go forward.

After all, she was following Xia Wei and Ye Qiao. Xiao Tao took a quick step and locked Ye Yanyun's hands.

"If you dare to mention my mother again, you can see if I can kill you." Ye Qiao said coldly.

Ye Yanyun couldn't break free. Ye was too lazy to play the role of sisterly love with Ye Qiao, so she directly said sarcastically, "You are just a feudal and ignorant ancient person, and I am the protagonist. You just wait for the disaster to come!"

[Why do I feel like Ye Yanyun isn’t very smart…]

Ye Qiao looked at Ye Yanyun and kept calling her feudal and ignorant, which was really unlucky. After ordering Xiao Tao to slap her a few times, she wanted to leave as she had other things to do.

Who knew that Ye Yanyun would go all out and bump into Ye Qiao hard when he was crossing the bridge. Ye Qiao immediately lost his balance and was about to fall into the water. Since she was going to fall into the water, Ye Qiao would take her with him even if she died. Ye Qiao held on to Ye Yanyun tightly.

With a "splash", both of them fell into the water.

The eunuchs and palace maids nearby were shouting that the empress had fallen into the water. Due to the difference between men and women, the eunuchs did not dare to go into the water to save her, and most of the palace maids could not swim, so two groups of people shouted loudly.

Ye Qiao can swim, and so can Ye Yanyun. So when she saw Ye Qiao climbing onto the shore, Ye Yanyun did something naughty and pulled her back into the water.

[I want to curse this damn green tea]

The system witnessed everything, including highly coded insults.

Nan Ci saw the chaos here and when he heard about falling into the water, he somehow remembered that Ye Qiao seemed to have said that she could swim. He saw that Ye Qiao seemed to be about to climb ashore, so he jumped down and swam to Ye Yanyun.

Ye Qiao was about to go ashore, but Ye Yanyun pulled her like that. She was so angry that she wanted to kill someone. Suddenly, she felt something was wrong. Her calves were sore and weak. It was a cramp!

She looked at Nan Ci's back as he brought Ye Yanyun ashore, and an uncontrollable feeling of grievance burst out in her heart. What should she do? Her legs couldn't move. She tried to kick her legs hard, but she had no strength at all.

She was so unwilling. All the grievances that had been suppressed during this period, like the river water, drowned her in an instant. She tried to push herself upwards, but gradually she fell into the water powerlessly.

With a splash, a man rushed into the water at an extremely fast speed and swam towards Ye Qiao like crazy. When Ye Qiao was about to lose consciousness in the water, she seemed to feel a strong arm, which was pulling her to the shore like crazy.

After Nan Ci got ashore, she saw Helian Yu, who was soaked, and treated him like a treasure. She took the clothes Xiao Tao gave her and wrapped the unconscious Ye Qiao tightly.

Looking at the intimate behavior of the two, Nanci narrowed his eyes, with a cold light in his eyes that was hard to conceal. How could Helian Yu, a lowly hostage, dare to touch his people?

Ye Yanyun, who was standing next to her, felt the low pressure in an instant. Seeing Ye Qiao fainting, she couldn't help but wonder why Ye Qiao didn't drown directly. Why did Helian Yu save her, Ye Qiaofei? Shouldn't he love Ye Yanyun to death?

Helian Yu looked straight at Nanci, who could not help but hold back the anger and coldness in his eyes, as well as a hint of contempt.

He ignored the two of them and directly picked up Ye Qiaofei. When passing by Nanci, he was stopped by the man.

"She is my queen." These cold words were an undisguised warning.

"If possible, she can also be the queen of Yelang." Helian Yu said without emotion.

After saying that, she carried Ye Qiaofei to her palace.

Only Nanci and Ye Yanyun were left. Ye Yanyun was still thinking about whether to pretend to be weak to arouse Nanci's sympathy.

"Your Majesty" Ye Yanyun thought to herself that she was pretty and looked so pitiful that no one would be unmoved by her.

"In three days, I want the final formula for gunpowder." The man spoke without any emotion. After saying this, he strode past her without even looking at her.
