Qin Feiling frowned, his eyes full of impatience.

He was worried about how to appease Concubine Jia and had no time to pay attention to the Queen.

"She has a stomachache, so send the imperial physician to see her. I don't know any medicine, so what's the point of him going?"

Seeing that he didn't even look up, Eunuch Liu said with a tingling sensation on his scalp, "The Empress said that today is her birthday, and she is pregnant with the heir. She wants to have a bowl of longevity noodles with Your Majesty..."

"Your Majesty, the Queen is the mother of the country. Logically, you should rest in the Queen's Palace tonight."

Qin Feiling suddenly looked up at Eunuch Liu: "What should I do? You, a dog slave, are the ones giving me warnings? You're really bold now. You even dare to control me?"

After he said that, he grabbed a memorial and threw it hard at Eunuch Liu.

Eunuch Liu was so frightened that he fell to his knees, his face bitter. "Your Majesty, please calm down... This old servant is doing this for your own good. The Queen is the ruler of the Central Palace after all, and Your Majesty cannot afford to offend her. Besides, if word of this reaches the Empress Dowager... Your Majesty will be the one who suffers in the end..."

He hesitated to speak and kowtowed to beg for mercy.

Qin Feiling gritted his teeth secretly and took a few deep breaths.

In the end, I still have to consider the Queen Mother.

He stood up suddenly and left the inner hall.

Eunuch Liu quickly got up and chased after him.

Qin Feiling leaned back on the dragon chariot, clutching a folding fan, and asked Eunuch Liu in a depressed mood.

"Did Concubine Jia send someone to pass on the message?"

"Your Majesty, there is no movement in Yuanchen Palace. Concubine Jia should be resting..."

"How's the investigation going for you?"

"There are some clues. I guess there will be results tomorrow."

Qin Feiling couldn't find any more questions to ask.

When the dragon chariot was about to reach Fengluan Palace, suddenly a pleasant singing voice echoed in the air.

Qin Feiling raised an eyebrow, "Where did the sound come from?"

Eunuch Liu stood on tiptoe to take a look and quickly reported, "Your Majesty, it seems to be in the direction of the Imperial Garden."

Qin Feiling smiled with an ambiguous smile.

Who is trying to be mysterious by not sleeping so late at night?

"Let's go take a look at it..."

Eunuch Liu quickly agreed, and the dragon sedan chair turned around and headed towards the imperial garden.

The sound of nature gradually became clearer.

Qin Feiling held a folding fan and slowly lifted the curtain.

Moonlight cast a shimmering light across the lake. Near the lake, a graceful woman in white stood, her features obscured by a thin layer of white veil. A gentle breeze blew, ruffling her white skirt and silky hair, making her look even more graceful and charming.

She tilted her head back slightly, her gaze fixed on the distance, her voice melodious, like the sound of nature, echoing across the lake. Every note was filled with emotion, making people intoxicated.

Qin Feiling stared at the woman's profile in a daze, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Although the woman had a veil on her face, her posture and features looked very much like Zhou Lingge.

Qin Feiling's heart couldn't help but beat fast. Why was she here?

Isn't she tired and already in bed?

Before Qin Feiling could recover from her shock, she saw a woman in a long dress as white as snow, dancing again beside the quiet and beautiful lake.

Her figure was lithe, like a blooming white lotus, each movement imbued with grace and agility. Her skirt fluttered in the breeze, like a fairy descending to earth. Her long hair cascaded over her shoulders, swaying gently to the rhythm of her dance. In the moonlight, her silhouette was reflected in the lake, creating a beautiful scene.

The night breeze blew... The surrounding flowers, plants, and trees seemed to be infected by her dance, swaying and accompanying her. Her toes tapped the ground lightly, her steps light and graceful, each step as if she were walking on clouds.

Qin Feiling was extremely excited and immediately ordered people to stop the dragon sedan chair.

He was not in a hurry to go on, for he was afraid of disturbing this beautiful scene.

He held his breath and watched the woman dancing in the moonlight.

Eunuch Liu understood what she meant. Could it be that this was a surprise that Concubine Jia secretly gave to His Majesty?

You know what, Concubine Jia is quite good at having fun!

Your Majesty should not worry anymore, right?

Eunuch Liu glanced at Qin Feiling's happy face, and he also happily asked all the palace servants to leave.

He himself stood far away.

Please do not disturb the enjoyment of His Majesty and Concubine Jia.

This dance lasted for half a quarter of an hour.

Qin Feiling couldn't take his eyes off her, a fire burning in his eyes.

After the woman stopped moving, he suppressed the excitement in his heart and stepped forward.

"Are you cold wearing such thin clothes?"

As he spoke, he took off his cloak.

Ling'er had noticed Qin Feiling a long time ago. She looked at Qin Feiling in pretended surprise... Then she lowered her head, covering her face and keeping herself in a dark and secluded place as much as possible.

She bent her knees in fear and trepidation and slowly knelt down.

"Your Majesty...Is this servant not disturbing Your Majesty?"

Her voice was melodious and pleasant, and she deliberately imitated Zhou Lingge's voice.

Qin Feiling didn't hear anything unusual for a moment. He walked quickly to Ling'er and wrapped the cloak around her thin shoulders.

"Your singing is like heavenly music, and your dancing is even more captivating... I have never heard such beautiful singing and dancing. I didn't even know you could do these..."

Ling'er didn't dare to look up. She tried her best to suppress her excited emotions.

She buried her head in his arms, looking shy and charming.

"I'm not very proficient in it, but for the sake of Your Majesty, I am willing to work hard to present my best self to Your Majesty. As long as Your Majesty likes it, I will definitely learn more in the future to please Your Majesty."

In front of Qin Feiling, Zhou Lingge has always been spoiled and has a bad temper. She rarely acts like this, well-behaved, gentle, and dependent.

Qin Feiling hugged her thin body and felt deeply moved.

He looked down at her face covered by the veil and was about to reach out to pull the veil.

"Let me see you... I haven't seen you for a few hours. I miss you so much!"

Ling'er still lowered her head, covering her face with the veil and refusing to take it off.

"Your Majesty, it would be more interesting if you wore a veil, wouldn't it?"

"I want to keep some mystery, it will be more fun this way!"

She imitated Zhou Lingge's tone and expression. Qin Feiling had no doubts. His excitement made him lose his original judgment.

He has always been irrational in front of Zhou Lingge.

He sneered and hugged her tighter.

"So you like this!"

He put his thin lips close to her ear and was about to say some sweet words, but the fragrance that rushed into his nostrils suddenly made him frown.

"The fragrance on you..."

Ling'er's heart tightened, and she quickly interrupted: "I changed the incense today, I hope Your Majesty likes it."
