Long Live the Empress

At the entrance of the palace, the Nine Thousand Years Old was leaning against a golden sedan chair with sixteen people, and another eunuch brought a sedan chair and asked Yue Jinghao to get in. Yue Jinghao wanted to refuse, but after receiving Yan Liyuan's warning, Yue Jinghao chose to keep her mouth shut.

When the officials saw this scene, they dared not say a word and could only shout "Farewell to the Nine Thousand Year Old Man!"

Yue Hanwen in the crowd blushed with anger. What an unfilial daughter! Her father and brother were punished, but she not only had no reaction at all, but she got involved with a eunuch. It was a disgrace to the family!

After leaving the palace, Jiu Qiansui changed carriages. Yue Jinghao was about to bow and say goodbye when she heard the person in the carriage say, "Get in!"

Before Yue Jinghao could refuse, Yan Liyuan's impatient voice came from the carriage, "You want me to go and invite him personally?!"

Yue Jinghao curled her lips, glanced at Wang Yi who was trying to suppress a smile, and got on the carriage.

Yan Liyuan's carriage was really luxurious, with animal skin and tiger bones as chairs, South China Sea night pearls as lamps, and even the inner walls were inlaid with various gems. Yue Jinghao looked at the carriage and couldn't help but say, "Nine thousand years old, aren't you afraid that the bad guys will rob you?"

Old man? Yan Liyuan was resting his mind with his eyes closed. When he heard Yue Jinghao call him like that, Yan Liyuan's lungs were about to explode, "What did you say?"

Yue Jinghao felt the coldness emanating from Yan Liyuan and immediately changed her words, "I was saying that the Ninth Thousand Year Old really knows how to enjoy life..."

Yan Liyuan snorted coldly, "Miss Yue, you should worry about yourself! The only son of the mansion has committed such a scandal and has been banned from entering the government. Yue Hanwen has also been demoted by three ranks. Can Miss Yue get a good deal after returning home?"

"If I can't even handle this, wouldn't I be a failure of the Nine Thousand Year Old Man's trust?"

Yan Liyuan didn't respond. He glanced at Yue Jinghao and changed the subject, "Why don't you come and thank me?"

Yue Jinghao was confused by his words. Yan Liyuan looked at the silly Yue Jinghao and reminded her, "It's about the bandits!"

Yue Jinghao suddenly realized, "I provided clues to the Ninth Prince, who wiped out the stronghold and won praise from the people. The Ninth Prince also cooperated with me to stage a drama and caught the spy in the mansion... All things considered, the Ninth Prince should thank me!"

Wang Yi outside the carriage burst out laughing. The Governor really understood Miss Yue. In the end, it was the Governor who had to thank her!

Yan Liyuan was not angry, but leaned back in the carriage, looking ready to be picked, "Then... Miss Yue, how do you want me to thank you? Hmm?"

Yue Jinghao was not a lecher, but seeing Yan Liyuan being so reckless, she could not help swallowing her saliva. Then she realized something and immediately turned her head away. "Thank you, but the Ninth Thousand Year Old Man has also helped me today. We are even now!"

Yan Liyuan was looking at Yue Jing's rosy little face and thinking she was adorable, but when he heard the words "cleared", his expression changed.

The carriage suddenly jolted violently. Yue Jinghao screamed and fell on something soft.

Yue Jinghao was just about to sigh that the nine thousand year old carriage was indeed extraordinary when she heard the soft "thing" speak, "This time it was me who saved Miss Yue! How should Miss Yue repay me?"

Yue Jinghao looked up suddenly, and met Yan Liyuan's teasing eyes. Yue Jinghao's face turned red all of a sudden, and she tried to get up in a hurry, but was pushed down again due to the shaking of the carriage.

In the past, Yue Jinghao was always so calm and confident. But looking at such a clumsy Yue Jinghao now, Yan Liyuan could no longer control himself and burst into laughter.

Wang Yi, who was outside the carriage, heard his master's laughter and wiped his sweat. "Master, your subordinates have tried their best to save your face!"

Yue Jinghao's face was so red that it seemed like blood was dripping out. She regretted why she was afraid of Jiu Qian Sui and why she didn't refuse to get on the carriage at the palace gate. Now, she was completely embarrassed!

Yan Liyuan continued to close his eyes and rest. Although he didn't say anything, the upturned corners of his lips revealed his good mood!

When they arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, Yue Jinghao jumped out of the carriage as if escaping without waiting for Manju to help her.

The people in the carriage burst into laughter again...

Yan Liyuan left only after Yue Jinghao entered the mansion. He looked at his palms, feeling the warmth left by Yue Jinghao's body...
