Transmigrating to Female Supremacy: Husbands, Don’t Be Too Outrageous

"Pass it on."

Ji Zhen stood at the bottom of the steps with a good temper and smiled at the eunuch who was standing there stiffly.

The eunuch shrank back, responded with gritted teeth, and stepped into the room.

After a while, the study became quiet and Ji Zhen was invited into the study.

The huge study room had been tidied up. From the incense burner in the purple-gold beast's mouth, the scent of evening hairpin incense wafted in the air.

If Ji Zhen had not noticed that there were two empty vase pieces on the antique shelf where the white-glazed carved long-necked vases and celadon plum vases were usually placed, she would have thought that the noises she had just heard outside were all illusions.

I was really angry.

After looking at Li Yuanzhen, who looked calm and at ease in his high position, Ji Zhen stepped forward and bowed calmly:

"Your humble servant pays respect to Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess."

"No need to be polite, please take a seat." Li Yuanzhen raised his hand and gave a slight gesture, then instructed the attendant, "Bring tea to His Highness Qingyan."

Ji Zhen declined the invitation and walked in, holding the tea without saying a word, waiting for Li Yuanzhen to speak.

Today was not a day for a grand court meeting, so Li Yuanzhen was only wearing a scarlet-colored casual dress. The phoenix-flower embroidery on the cuffs looked very bright in the morning light, which made Li Yuanzhen's already bad complexion even more gloomy.

"I heard that there was a strong wind last night, and many trees fell in front of the houses in Beijing, and the tiles on the roofs were broken. Qingyan, did you sleep well last night?"

Li Yuanzhen opened his mouth slowly, his dark eyes fixed on Ji Zhen.

When Li Yuanzhen said this, Ji Zhen immediately understood what was going on. She guessed the reason why Li Yuanzhen was angry and couldn't help laughing secretly in her heart:

This Li Yuanzhen is indeed the Queen of South Vietnam, she values ​​her face more than gold. People are so anxious that their heads are smoking, and they are still playing dumb with her. Well, then let's see who can't hold back first.

Ji Zhen then put down the teacup, lowered his eyes, bowed, and said to Li Yuanzhen:

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I went to bed early yesterday and didn't hear any wind."

When Li Yuanzhen saw that Ji Zhen didn't respond, his face darkened immediately. He stood up and walked to Ji Zhen in two steps. He frowned and said:

"You sleep well, but Lin Jiahuai stayed awake all night. He even brought people to take Ziyan away in the middle of the night yesterday!"

Ji Zhen lowered her eyes and looked at Li Yuanzhen who was walking around anxiously, and bowed more respectfully and said:

"Lord Lin is so devoted to public affairs. It is a blessing for Your Highness and the capital."

"presumptuous!"

Li Yuanzhen shouted angrily in a deep voice, and when he looked at Ji Zhen, his eyes seemed to be spitting fire.

She had never seen Ji Zhen so slick. He didn't respond to a word she said, but was so obedient that she couldn't find any fault with him.

If it was normal, she would not bother to argue with her. But today was different. Lu Ziyan was captured by Lin Jiahuai, which was like cutting out her favorite flesh and blood. How could she stand Ji Zhen's weirdness?

Li Yuanzhen's anger, which he had suppressed with great difficulty just now, came out again at this moment. He slapped the table and said angrily:

"Qingyan! Ziyan is my legitimate husband. You actually allowed Lin Jiahuai to take him away. What is your intention?"

When Ji Zhen heard that Li Yuanzhen was actually starting to accuse her of something, her eyelids jumped, and she stopped laughing and said seriously:

"Your Highness, why do you say that? Lord Lin is the prefect of Jingzhao. He handles cases according to the law. He has the power to detain everyone, from the royal family to the peddlers. What does this have to do with me? I have no position or power in the capital. How can you say that I condoned it?"

These words were high-sounding, and they cleared Li Yuanzhen of all responsibility in just a few words. Li Yuanzhen was so angry that he didn't even care about the status of the emperor and his subject. He stepped forward and grabbed Ji Zhen's hand, looking at her sinisterly and said:

"Qingyan, don't get too complacent! Don't forget that your male favorite Yunzi is also Xian Yao's man. Zhang Quansheng has been convicted and can't get away. Do you think your Yunzi can get away by pretending to be sick and not showing up?

And your beloved Zhao Youqing, as a hostage of Yan State, how could he be innocent in this case of "offering a map to Yan"? Aren't you curious about what he has been doing while following Xian Yao?"

"Your Highness is serious."

Ji Zhen didn't like the contemptuous look on Li Yuanzhen's face when she mentioned Zhao Youqing. She shook off Li Yuanzhen's hand without leaving a trace, took a step back, and sneered:

"As the ancients said: Those who are clean are clean. Since Yunzi entered our palace, he has never left the main gate or the secondary gate. Everyone in the palace knows it. There is absolutely no treason or collusion with the enemy.

As for the guest official, he is a hostage of the State of Yan. Not to mention that he is not allowed to leave the capital without permission, even if he is in the capital, there are many spies watching him wherever he goes, wherever he sits, and whoever he wants. I think Your Highness knows this better than I do, so there is no need for me to be curious.

Lord Lin has always been impartial in his judgments and would never confuse right and wrong. Moreover, if it weren't for the irrefutable evidence, I don't think Lord Lin would have come to the East Palace so easily. Your Highness would not have let Master Lu leave the East Palace if it weren't for the irrefutable evidence that Lord Lin had taken someone away."

Having said that, Ji Zhen looked at Li Yuanzhen deeply, then changed the subject and said slowly:

"Since Your Highness summoned me here today, I believe you have something important to discuss. If so, why do you have to dwell on my family affairs?"

Li Yuanzhen paused, she looked at Ji Zhen for a long time, waved to the attendants around her, and said:

"Stand back. No one is allowed to come in without my order."

The attendants withdrew as ordered, and only Li Yuanzhen and Ji Zhen were left in the study of Motan Palace. The slanting sunlight passed through the open window of the study, stretching Li Yuanzhen's shadow on the ground.

Li Yuanzhen slowly clenched his hands at his side into fists, a look of determination flashed across his face, and he gritted his teeth and said to Ji Zhen:

"Qingyan, you must ask Lin Jiahuai to release Ziyan. Immediately."

Li Yuanzhen's overly anxious yet serious look immediately made Ji Zhen suspicious.

She knew that Li Yuanzhen summoned her to the palace most likely because of Lu Ziyan's matter, but it was strange that he looked so anxious and frightened.

"Your Highness, why are you so anxious to get Master Lu back? If you are worried that Master Lu's reputation will be damaged, you should have made it clear in court." Ji Zhen stared at Li Yuanzhen and asked.

Li Yuanzhen felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by Ji Zhen, so he turned his head sideways and frowned:

"No need to say more. That's not your business. If I tell you to release it, just go ahead and do it. Don't ruin my plans."

"Big deal? What big deal?"

Ji Zhen refused to give in and pressed the issue to the end.

For some reason, seeing Li Yuanzhen suddenly become irritable made Ji Zhen think of that night when Lu Ziyan's face was full of humiliation but he still kept his mouth shut about the drug trial.

Li Yuanzhen was a little annoyed by Ji Zhen's questioning, but she still didn't give in. She just turned around and glared at her fiercely, saying:

"If you want to live longer, be less curious. It's better to spend more time on your own man, otherwise you won't know how you got cheated."

Seeing that Li Yuanzhen once again brought the topic to Zhao Youqing, Ji Zhen became unhappy. She glanced at Li Yuanzhen and said with a cold smile:

"Thank you for your reminder, Your Highness. However, my man doesn't need to try drugs, so I don't have to worry so much. Your Highness should pay more attention to your own Lord."

As soon as these words came out, Li Yuanzhen's face suddenly became very ugly. Two cold lights flashed in her eyes, as if she wanted to tear Ji Zhen alive. She said sinisterly:

"Qingyan, I once said that if you want to live longer, you should be less curious. Why don't you listen?"
