Li'er was speechless and closed his mouth.

She was also worried about the young lady. After all, the emperor's favor was not so easy to keep. Concubine Jia was an example. The emperor favored her for more than two years, but he just threw her away without any mercy.

If my lady rashly asks the emperor to revoke his order, it would be no different from offending the emperor's majesty. Whether this succeeds, it will be my trouble; whether it fails, it will also be my trouble.

Qianqing Palace.

Inside the main hall, Li Ji was sitting on the dragon throne with a thick stack of memorials on the table. He just started reading them while Wang Huai was serving him.

Even if the emperor didn't say it tonight, Wang Huai knew that there was no need to put up a sign.

There are so many memorials that one has to wait until the morning court to read them all. Those old ministers will definitely discuss the matters in the memorials with the emperor at the morning court, and the emperor must not be unaware of this.

After all, those censors in the Censorate were all sharp-eyed and sharp-tongued, and their pens were always ready to record in history books.

Fu Hai came in from outside, walked to Wang Huai and spoke in a low voice.

"Mr. Bu is here."

"I want to see the emperor now. It seems like there is something important."

Wang Huai smacked his lips and looked up at the emperor, who was concentrating at the moment.

"I understand. I will tell the emperor later."

"You go out first."

Fu Hai responded and walked out.

Wang Huai thought that after half an incense stick of time, the emperor would be tired of reading the memorials. Then he could tell the emperor that Concubine Bu wanted to see him, which would not disturb the emperor while he was reviewing the memorials.

Fu Hai went outside and replied to Bu Ji with a smile.

"My dear, the emperor is busy right now. You have to wait for a while."

"Why don't you follow me to the side hall? Eunuch Wang will come to call you in a moment."

Bu Ji waved his hand and said.

"No need, I'll just wait at the door."

"Go and do your work."

Fu Hai let out a sigh and left the yard.

Autumn is approaching, the evening breeze is cool, and the eunuchs and palace maids all sit together and play mahjong.

Fu Hai won a few taels of silver while playing, and was so happy that he forgot about Bu Ji in the yard.

Wang Huai in the main hall, for some reason, leaned against the wall, closed his eyes, and fell asleep unknowingly.

Outside Qianqing Palace.

Bu Ji crossed her arms and stamped her feet. She was wearing thin clothes and forgot to bring a cloak when she came out. She walked in a hurry.

Li'er, who was standing aside, was only wearing the clothes of a palace maid, and had no extra clothes for her mistress to wear.

Both of them were extremely cold. A cool breeze was blowing, and every gust of wind blew through their clothes. The cold wind flowed through their trouser legs, sleeves, and collars, and brushed their skin, making them shiver continuously.

"Master, Fu Hai, this servant, actually dared to lie to you."

"It's been so long, and Wang Huai hasn't come out yet."

"The Emperor will not wait until dawn to see you, will he?"

Li'er couldn't help but complain. She looked at Bu Ji. Bu Ji's face had turned pale due to the cold, and only a little bit of color remained on his face because he was biting his lips.

Bu Ji was so frozen that he couldn't speak. He took a moment to speak.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute."

She stared at the entrance of the hall, feeling extremely aggrieved, with tears welling up in her eyes.

What's going on? If he doesn't want to meet, then he doesn't want to meet. Why is he deliberately leaving her alone? Has she offended him in the past few days?

No, could it be that Li Ji found out about her leaving the palace today?

The palace is full of the Emperor's and the Empress Dowager's spies. It is very easy to hide something from them.

Seeing this, Li'er could only continue to stand in the yard with Bu Ji.

The wind blew harder, and the branches and leaves creaked together. The moon hung high overhead, lonely and cold.

About two hours later, Wang Huai was kicked and woke up from his sweet dream. When he opened his eyes, he saw the emperor in a dragon robe, kneeling on the ground, rolling and crawling.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Your Majesty, please forgive me."

"I was sleepy for a moment, I dare not do it again."

Li Ji had a cold face, dark circles under his eyes, and ink on his big hands.

Well, he was reviewing memorials, and the servant beside him was actually sleeping.

If he wasn't a eunuch, Li Ji would have pulled him up and exchanged identities with him.

It is more comfortable to be Prince Jingyun. Being an emperor is too boring.

When he thought of this, he remembered that woman.

"Wake up, come with me to the Yikun Palace."

Even though he knew she was asleep, he still wanted to go to Yikun Palace to take a look, but he wouldn't wake her up.

I guess when he comes back from Yiku Palace, he can change his clothes and go to court directly.

When the emperor mentioned Yikun Palace, Wang Huai remembered that he thought he was dreaming when Fu Hai came in.

"Oh, Your Majesty, Noble Lady Bu... seems to be just outside the palace."

Li Ji's eyes paused, and he walked out quickly.

He walked out of the hall and saw the shivering woman standing in the yard.

Bu Ji's face was so pale and he was wearing only a single layer of clothing, as thin as a leaf swaying on a branch.

His heart trembled, and he walked over quickly, untied his robe, and put it on her.

Bu Ji was so cold that her eyes were a little dazed. She only saw a figure walking towards her, and then a robe fell from the sky and covered her.

It just covered her head.

"emperor?"

She reached out and touched Li Ji's arm. Her cold fingertips touched his arm, and his arm trembled subconsciously.

Li Ji reached out and held her arm. His warm big hand seemed to have suddenly grabbed a piece of ice, cold and hard.

It was crazy, how could she stand in the yard and freeze like this?

Bu Ji moved her mouth but couldn't say anything. Suddenly, she was picked up by someone. When she poked her head out from under her robe, he was already on the bed.

In addition to a loose robe, she also had two thick quilts on her body.

“Where’s the ginseng soup?”

Li Ji stood in front of the bed, his face gloomy and his voice full of anger.

Wang Huai quickly brought over a bowl of hot ginseng soup. Li Ji took the ginseng soup, moved close to Bu Ji's face, and put the edge of the bowl against her lips.

Bu Ji looked at his brutal actions, slowly opened his mouth, and drank the ginseng soup in big gulps.

Li Ji's tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed. He held the empty bowl in his big hand and touched her forehead with his other hand, which was still frighteningly cold.

There was a "pop" sound.

The empty bowl in his hand was crushed directly, and porcelain pieces were broken all over the floor.

"Wang Huai!"

He roared angrily, his big hands were still stained with blood, drops of blood flowed from his palm along the fingertips to the fingertips, and finally dripped onto the ground.

Bu Ji was completely shocked. She had never seen Li Ji so angry.
