A red apricot is about to cheat on you

The next morning, the sky was a pale pale sky, and the morning light shone through the clouds onto the earth. The palace was serene, and the air was filled with a light morning mist, giving it a mysterious and solemn feeling.

The emperor had not yet attended court, but his ministers had already arrived, waiting to discuss state affairs with him. They were dressed in gorgeous court robes, their expressions solemn, their hearts filled with worry and anticipation for the country's future.

Kunning Palace,

Ever since the Queen returned to the palace, she has heard about Yi Duoer's deeds in Yongshou Palace. She learned that she was not on good terms with Concubine Ye, and that even Chu Junye was not very friendly to her!

The Queen and Concubine Ye were at odds with each other, and both were always trying to bring each other down.

So when the Queen heard the news, she immediately summoned Yi Duoer to the palace to investigate. If she could use it, she could help her and the eldest prince monitor Chu Junye. She could also know both herself and the enemy!

Yi Duoer is not a naive person, so she naturally knows that the queen summoned her with ulterior motives, but because of her status, she cannot refuse, so she has to enter the palace!

At this time in the Hall of Supreme Harmony,

The emperor sat high on the dragon throne, his attitude solemn and dignified, showing his supreme authority.

Prince Regent Chu Jingchen sat at the lower right of the throne, highlighting his special status, higher than other officials and princes. The other officials and princes stood below.

The entire court was filled with a tense and solemn atmosphere. All the civil and military officials were neatly divided into two rows side by side!

The first words the emperor said when he entered the court were to curse the eldest prince Chu Junhuai: "Asshole... Look at what this is!"

After cursing, he waved his hand and angrily threw a letter on the ground. The eunuch respectfully picked up the letter on the ground and handed it to Chu Junhuai!

Chu Junhuai was born tall, with a slightly bronzed complexion. He looked quite foreign!

When he saw the contents of the envelope, his face turned extremely surprised. He shook his head and defended himself, "No, that's not the case. Father! I didn't write that letter. This letter must have been forged by someone else. I really didn't collude with the Ministry of War!"

Although it wasn't the first time the emperor got angry, the officials were still afraid of his wrath. They were so frightened that they all knelt on the ground and shouted!

"Emperor calm down!"

Chu Jingchen looked at the eldest prince, who stood there motionless in fear, his face showing no sign of panic. He glanced at Chu Junye again, a trace of composure in his eyes. He already understood. All of this was Chu Junye's scheme to frame Chu Junhuai!

He could guard the Qi Dynasty and expand the territory, but as for the brothers fighting for the throne, as long as they didn't kill each other, he wouldn't care! He was too lazy to care!

Chu Junhuai knelt on the ground, and no matter how much he tried to explain, he couldn't dispel the emperor's suspicion. He thought he was plotting something bad!

"The evidence is right in front of me, yet you're still trying to make excuses. Furthermore, the newly appointed Vice Minister of War is one of your subordinates, and the officials below have spread the news. You've truly disappointed me!"

"The Crown Prince Chu Junhuai has colluded with officials, secretly formed a clique, and has evil intentions! He will be thrown into prison first, and his fate will be determined later. The Minister of War is deeply deceived, and his official position will be stripped and thrown into prison!"

"Father, I believe my elder brother has truly been wronged. I simply cannot believe he would do such a thing! I beg you, Father, to be discerning and clear my elder brother's name!"

Chu Junye began to plead for mercy, and some officials also began to plead for mercy. At this moment, Chu Jingchen spoke.

"The matter has not been thoroughly investigated yet, my royal brother, it's best not to jump to conclusions!"

The emperor heard Chu Jingchen's words. Although he didn't have to adopt his suggestions, he couldn't ignore them! So he changed his words to, "Since they all plead for you, then first confine Chu Junhuai to the Prince Huai's Mansion. Without my order, you are not allowed to leave the palace!"

Everyone's pleas were in vain. Chu Jingchen's simple two sentences gave Chu Junhuai some room to turn things around.

〈However, his two words today almost cost him his wife! This gave Chu Junhuai a chance to make a comeback. Later, when Chu Junhuai learned that today's disaster was caused by Yi Duoer, it also planted a huge hidden danger for Yi Duoer!〉

After the emperor dealt with Chu Junhuai, he said to the people below:

"If you have something to do, start the show, if nothing happens, leave the court!"

Prime Minister Zhu stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, a Turkish messenger has reported that the Turks will send an envoy to request a marriage in a month!"

Chu Jingchen had already received the secret letter, so he received the information much faster than these people. He didn't want to listen to their nagging, so he said hello to the emperor and left the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Just as he was about to leave the palace, he met a eunuch who was out of the Queen's palace to purchase things. He unexpectedly learned that Yi Duoer had been summoned into Kunning Palace by the Queen. Although it had nothing to do with him, he couldn't help but worry about her.

With her arrogant and domineering personality, she was afraid that she would suffer if she went alone! So she said to Han Bai who was waiting at the palace gate:

"The King has something else to do, you go back first!"

After saying that, he quickly walked towards Kunning Palace. Han Bai touched his head with a puzzled look on his face and said to himself, "Master, why are you in such a hurry? Where are you going?"

The farce in the Hall of Supreme Harmony had just ended, and at this moment, a silent war had also begun in the Kunning Palace! As soon as Yi Duoer entered the Kunning Palace, the palace servants here were very polite and respectful to her!

The head steward, Yu Min, personally invited people into the palace, which reminded Yi Duoer of the time in Concubine Ye's palace, forming a sharp contrast!

Yi Duoer pretended to be a weak and well-behaved girl and entered the inner hall! The first thing that caught her eye was a middle-aged woman sitting above. She looked beautiful and dignified, and her every move showed elegance and nobility!

There were two palace maids serving beside her. Yi Duoer imitated the way the people in "Legend of Zhen Huan" paid their respects to the Queen, and walked forward to greet the Queen in the same way!

"Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen, may Her Majesty live a thousand years!"

Her movements were so stiff and awkward that several palace maids couldn't help but chuckle, covering their mouths. This made Yi Duoer a little embarrassed, but the queen wore a kind smile on her face and stretched out her hand to signal Yi Duoer to get up.

"Princess Ye, there's no need to be so polite. Rise quickly, Caiyue, and have me sit down! I just returned to the palace yesterday! Thinking that Jun Ye had just married, I wanted to meet you, my daughter-in-law! I hope you don't mind my hasty summons to the palace."

She still held a Buddhist bead ring in her hand. A faint smile always hung on the corners of her lips, like the warm spring sun, and her demeanor was full of kindness. However, it was unclear what kind of knife was hidden behind this smile!

So Yi Duo'er wouldn't be fooled by her charitable appearance. She had watched too many palace fighting dramas. So she followed suit and said:

"Your Majesty is the mother of the nation, and you're also busy with countless affairs. Every day you have to manage the harem and the concubines! It's an honor for me to be summoned by Your Majesty!"

The Queen noticed that he was humble and polite, unlike the rumors in the palace that he behaved erratically! He had a fight with the Ninth Princess and contradicted Concubine Ye. The Queen carefully noticed that Duo'er did not regard herself as the Princess of the Night!

It seems that the newlyweds are really not in harmony, so it is not difficult to let Yi Duoer monitor Chu Junye! So Caiyue took some jewelry from the storeroom and put it in front of Yi Duoer.

"Duo'er, these jewels are for you. Take a look at them, do you like them?"

Yi Duoer was so happy when she saw all these things. She knew that everything in the Queen's Palace must be good stuff. She almost smiled, but she still tried to hold it back.

Softly speaking:

"My Lady, how can I accept such a valuable gift from you? I can't accept a gift without merit! I'm truly terrified!"
