Why do you always rush to join me after awakening?

The next day.

Seeing that it was almost time and her sister should not have slept yet, Hai Lan came to Yiku Palace.

Today she wore a light pink dress, which made her look much more energetic.

Ruyi did change out of the old concubine dowager's dress, but her outfit was really not worthy of praise.

Sitting next to the colorful Ruyi, Hai Lan looks extremely beautiful.

"Sister, are you okay last night? I was scared to death when I heard about the assassin."

Ruyi's eyes glanced at Hailan's clothes vaguely, the corners of her mouth tilted up in disgust, her tone still so arrogant, even a little jealous.

"What could possibly happen? Do you think those guards are dead?"

"Forehead……"

In fact, Ruyi has no idea how many times she has scolded those guards from last night until now.

Sanbao thought that the imperial concubine was angry that they didn't catch the assassin, so she was unhappy.

So he secretly put some pressure on the guards.

Little did he know that the more he did this, the more he went against Ruyi's ideas.

Hai Lan had long been accustomed to Ruyi's behavior, and continued to speak in a good-tempered manner, "Sister, I just don't understand why there was an assassination in the Yikun Palace out of nowhere? I really can't understand why you are so considerate of others. Is it Concubine Chun..."

Ruyi raised her eyes to look at Hailan, curled her thick lips, and said with disdain, "Oh, her? Do you think that if she really did something like this, the emperor wouldn't be able to find out?"

Now that she didn't know the outcome at the moment, Ruyi felt anxious, fearing that Anji would really be discovered by the emperor.

But what she was most worried about was that Anji would tell others about the sperm donation.

"I really hope they can catch the assassin as soon as possible and investigate thoroughly. Otherwise, it's really unsettling to keep people in such a state of panic."

"If you have any concerns, stay in your palace and don't run around unless necessary."

Hailan felt a little disappointed, but still responded, "Yes."

After Hongli left the court, the assassination attempt remained unresolved.

So he directly called over the guards who were responsible for patrolling the Yiku Palace last night.

"Pay attention to your attitude when you speak later. After all, you are meeting the emperor. Do you hear me?"

"Oh, oh, oh, I heard it. Eunuch Li Yu, you've said it all. My ears are almost callused."

As he spoke, Zhao Jiuxiao did not forget to pick his ears, and he didn't care at all about what Li Yu said.

The moment they saw the emperor, Zhao Jiuxiao and Li Yuqi knelt down.

Hongli was stunned when he saw Li Yu kneeling beside Zhao Jiuxiao. Wasn’t Li Yu there to deliver the message?

Why didn't you stand by my side and serve me after you came back after delivering the message?

The eunuch chief doesn’t even know what he should do?

Jinzhong immediately reacted when he saw the emperor frowning and staring at Li Yu thoughtfully.

But he said nothing.

He didn't want to remind Li Yu.

Anyway, the more mistakes Li Yu makes in front of the emperor, the better it will be for him and Lian Zhuer.

Jinzhong was eyeing the position of chief eunuch.

Hongli stood up and walked down, his tone full of undisturbed arguments.

"The assassination has even reached my Imperial Consort. Is this a challenge to me? Zhao Jiuxiao, lead your men to clear the palace and patrol carefully."

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, Zhao Jiuxiao stood up, bowed his head and walked out.

As soon as he left, Li Yu also stood up and followed him out.

"Eunuch Li Yu? Why did you follow me out?"

Li Yu smiled and did not respond to Zhao Jiuxiao's words. Instead, he said with a smile, "I was quite worried about you before, but after meeting the emperor, I found that you are quite calm and composed. You have done a good job."

"The Imperial Concubine has not promoted you in vain. You should pay more attention to catching the assassin."

"You must not disappoint the Imperial Concubine, understand?"

In the final analysis, they are all running dogs of the imperial power, and Li Yu, a eunuch, is telling him what to do.

Haha, sooner or later, Zhao Jiuxiao will kick this annoying Li Yu aside.

Hongli had just sat down when Li Xin came in.

Li Xin quietly raised her eyes to look at Hongli, a little shy on her face, and said in a low voice, "The servant Li Xin pays respects to the emperor. Your Majesty, the master invites you to the Qixiang Palace for dinner~"

When Hongli heard that it was Concubine Jia who invited him over, he asked with concern, "Is Concubine Jia feeling better?"

Li Xin knew that the emperor cared about their master.

However, there was no smile on Hongli's face from beginning to end.

On the other side, Fu Heng was pulled out of the study by his mother in a tough manner.

Fu Heng said helplessly, "Mother, what are you doing?"

"Have you forgotten something? What did I say last night?"

"do not know."

"You want to piss me off to death, don't you? If I tell you to go see him, then go now!"

Fu Heng sighed and said, "Mother, you must understand the consequences of being more powerful than the master. My sister is no longer the queen, yet you still choose only high-ranking noble ladies. Are you afraid that the emperor will not be suspicious?"

Hearing Fu Heng's words, Mother was obviously panicked and quickly explained, "Mother didn't think too much about it. Then Mother will go and pick one for you."

"Okay, don't worry about it, mother. It's very likely that the emperor will personally arrange my son's marriage."

"What's the meaning!?"

Fu Heng was unable to explain to his mother what he had experienced, and finally had to avoid the topic by saying he was busy with work.

"Why hasn't today's ice been delivered yet?"

Jin Yuyan deliberately brought up this matter while Hongli was having a meal.

After receiving the signal, Zhenshu immediately started to exert force.

"Master, the maid in the ice room, Ai'er, runs to Anhua Palace all day long and is often not seen, so the delivery of ice has been delayed."

"Isn't this just nonsense? I just let her go the last few times she didn't deliver the ice on time, but why is she getting even worse now?"

Zhenshu raised her eyes and continued, "My Lord, you may not know that the maids from all the palaces are now going to Anhua Hall more frequently. I heard that even the Imperial Noble Consort is praying in Anhua Hall every day."

Jin Yuyan pursed her lips and smiled, covering her mouth with a handkerchief, and said deliberately as if jokingly, "That's right. Master Anji is a man who entered the palace, and he is handsome. It is understandable that people love beauty. Even if you want to pray, you don't have to go there in person every day. You can copy the Buddhist scriptures and send them over."

After saying this, Jin Yuyan looked at Hongli who was drinking soup with his head down.

After finishing his soup, Hongli put down the bowl in his hand and said with a cold expression, "The Imperial Concubine goes to pray for blessings every day, which shows that she is sincere. There is nothing wrong."

Zhenshu added, "I also heard that the Imperial Concubine would stay in Anhua Palace for several hours every day. Sometimes she would even send someone to deliver vegetarian food to Master Anji. She would not return to Yikun Palace until dark. She is truly a model for the harem."

How could Hongli not hear the hidden meaning between the two of them?

In that case, let’s call the person over and ask him in person.

It's good that one or two of them make her worry and fight with each other all day long!
