Traveling through the emperor, overthrowing the empress dowager at the beginning

In Chunxue Palace.

Madam Xue gently plucked the strings of the zither with her delicate hands, her eyes closed and her expression serious, but her mind was already immersed in the mysterious melody.

She has played this kind of music countless times, and can play every melody clearly even without looking at the music score.

The delicate hands moved quickly on the guqin, and the moving sound of the guqin echoed in the air.

Everyone in the palace seemed to be affected by the sound of the piano.

Even the guards standing at the palace gate were immersed in it at this moment.

It was not until Ye Chen arrived in front of them that the two guards reacted.

"Emperor!"

A guard was about to speak when Ye Chen raised his hand to stop him.

Then, Ye Chen walked into the palace quietly.

And soon he saw Mrs. Xue playing the piano.

Mrs. Xue was dressed quite casually at this time. Under the white brocade dress was the charming and mature wife, with her waist-length hair casually draped.

Ye Chen walked to Madam Xue's side and looked at her profile.

The skin as white as jade, the straight nose bridge, and the slightly flickering eyelashes are all very charming.

Even though Mrs. Xue had her eyes closed at this moment, her focused expression added a unique charm to her.

Ye Chen looked at Madam Xue quietly, feeling a little admiration in his heart.

It turns out this woman has this ability and can even play such heavenly music.

Ye Chen did not disturb Mrs. Xue, but just watched quietly.

Until Mrs. Xue finished playing a song, she slowly opened her eyes.

“This song is so familiar.”

Mrs. Xue frowned slightly and sighed softly.

Her pretty face was full of helplessness.

She has loved playing the piano since she was a child, but as she played the piano, she found it increasingly boring.

After all, there are only so many songs to go back and forth.

She had been playing for more than twenty years and was tired of it.

However, sometimes playing the piano can also be a way for her to relieve her irritability.

Since she started working for Ye Chen, she has to deal with all kinds of intelligence and trivial matters every day.

I became busy all of a sudden.

She can also feel a certain amount of pressure, and she feels much more comfortable after playing the piano.

"Playing well."

Ye Chen's voice suddenly rang out.

Mrs. Xue's body suddenly stiffened, and she turned her head in surprise. When she saw Ye Chen, a look of astonishment immediately appeared on her face.

"Your Majesty, I didn't know you were here! Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

Madam Xue immediately stood up and began to salute Ye Chen.

However, seeing Mrs. Xue like this.

Ye Chen smiled slightly, then said gently: "No need to be so polite, please stand up."

"Madam Xue, I never thought you could play this piece so beautifully."

Upon hearing this, Madam Xue's pretty face flushed, and she said a little embarrassedly, "I only play it occasionally, it's not very pleasant to listen to. I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Your Majesty."

"You don't have to be so modest. I can tell whether your playing is good or not. With your skills, even the musicians in the palace are not inferior to you."

Ye Chen paused before continuing, "But these songs sound a bit monotonous to me."

Upon hearing this, Madam Xue was stunned.

"Your Majesty, this piece of music is from the Book of Songs. If you find it monotonous, I can play a more complex piece for you."

Madam Xue bit her lip. She was not a musician, but when facing Ye Chen, she always felt an inexplicable pressure.

The best way to relieve this pressure is to cater to their preferences.

Moreover, Madam Xue was already tied to Ye Chen at this time.

It can be said that she is already Ye Chen's person.

Naturally, everything depends on Ye Chen.

"Madam Xue, I do know some nice music and I also know how to play some musical instruments. Are you interested?"

Ye Chen suddenly asked.

"What is this, Your Majesty?"

Mrs. Xue asked doubtfully.

"Oh, it's too late tonight. Come to my Yangxin Palace tomorrow and I'll teach you this new song."

Ye Chen looked at Madam Xue’s pretty face and felt helpless. How could Madam Xue be his aunt?

If this Madam Xue was just a concubine.

Ye Chen will definitely not leave tonight. He wants to fall asleep listening to the melodious piano music, and will teach the other party all the songs he knows that night.

Pity.

Ye Chen shook his head, then turned and left.

Seeing Ye Chen like this, Mrs. Xue breathed a sigh of relief.

She was really afraid that Ye Chen would attack her.

After all, the Ye Chen she knew was a man who would not care about the emperor's face.

Moreover, if Ye Chen really had feelings for her and wanted to bully her, she would not dare to speak out.

Because she is now Ye Chen's subordinate, she has to rely on Ye Chen, and it is impossible for her to live carefree in the harem like before.

After all, her former confidant turned out to be a man of the powerful official, which made her feel a sense of crisis.

That's why she wants to gain control of a force and find a backer for herself.

Ye Chen is the supporter she chose.

But it's okay.

Ye Chen didn't do anything to her.

But soon she became confused.

Could it be that the emperor felt that he was old and unattractive?

Madam Xue bit her lip and felt a little unsure.

After returning to the Yangxin Palace, Ye Chen changed his clothes and rested.

The next day, when the bell ringing in the palace woke Ye Chen up.

Cheng En immediately came forward to report, "Your Majesty, Guard Shen has sent word that Minister Liu of the Ministry of War has already concluded his interrogation."

"Okay, bring me the confession!"

Ye Chen's eyes lit up and he said immediately.
