The order they received was to kill the bandits and Shen Lebai and his men after finding the person, so as to create evidence that Shen Lebai was murdered by them.

At this time, Shen Leyan in Jingren Palace didn't know what she was dreaming about. She was suddenly frightened and woke up with cold sweat on her forehead.

She touched the cold quilt on the other side and knew that Emperor Yong'an must have gotten up long ago.

They seemed to have been busy for a long time last night, and he probably got up after sleeping for less than two hours.

In fact, Emperor Yong'an felt that he had just fallen asleep when he heard Baoshun knocking on the door.

God knows how much he doesn't want to go to the morning court today.

But he was worried that Baoshun would continue knocking on the door and wake up Shen Leyan, so he had to get up quietly and reluctantly.

He changed clothes and washed up directly in the outer room, so Shen Leyan was not affected at all.

Before leaving, Emperor Yong'an specifically instructed the palace maids not to disturb her and to let her sleep as much as possible.

Shen Leyan called her personal maid and asked in a hoarse voice, "What time is it now?"

Caiyue hurried in upon hearing the voice, "My Lady, why are you awake so early? It's only 2:45 AM now."

Zhiyue said with concern: "When the emperor left, he specifically instructed the servants not to disturb the queen."

"Your Majesty went to bed late last night. You should get some more sleep."

Caiyue nodded in agreement, "Madam, did you just have a nightmare?"

She saw that Shen Leyan's face was pale and she was sweating.

Shen Leyan nodded and said with lingering fear, "I dreamed that something happened to my brother and sister Yueyin..."

In her dream, Shen Lebai and Shangguan Yueyin were being chased and fell off a cliff. Both of them were seriously injured and were waiting for their rescue.

"Is there any news from my brother? Have you found them?"

The two shook their heads gently and said comfortingly, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. The Emperor seems to have gotten some clues this morning."

"This matter seems to be related to the Ye family."

"From what Baoshun said, it seems that the second young lady of the Ye family did it."

Upon hearing this, Shen Leyan clenched her fists.

"It's really her! Ye Jinyu!"

She was filled with regret at the moment. If she had known something like this would happen, she shouldn't have asked her brother for help...

She should keep her brother away from her!

This madman!

The two looked at Shen Leyan's frightening expression and knew that their young lady was really angry this time.

Whether it is the young master or Miss Yueyin, they are both very important to the young lady.

Miss Ye Er actually attacked both of them at the same time. One can imagine how anxious and angry she was.

"My lady, please don't get yourself hurt by being angry."

"The Emperor will definitely find out the truth and avenge His Majesty."

She knew this, but she couldn't wait any longer...

Furthermore, as long as the Ye family does not fall, even if Ye Jinyu is found out, it will not do anything in the end.

She wanted to take action herself and teach the Ye family and Ye Jinyu a lesson!

Shen Leyan took a deep breath and said slowly: "Help me get up and wash up."

"It's still early. Would you like to rest a little longer, Your Majesty?" Zhiyue asked with concern.

"No, I'm not in the mood to sleep now." Shen Leyan forced a smile.

Thinking of the concubines coming to pay their respects later, she couldn't help but sneer.

Today, I will make life difficult for the Ye family.

Concubine Ye, how are you?

Shen Leyan still remembers clearly the plot that Concubine Ye had done against her.

If it weren't for her calculations, she probably wouldn't have entered the palace.

Although she escaped at first, she never regretted meeting Emperor Yong'an.

Until now, she still feels a little relieved.

After carefully dressing up, Shen Leyan wore a gorgeous bright red phoenix robe that only the queen could wear.

Her waist-length hair was tied up high, with a dot of cinnabar between her eyebrows, making her look bright yet dignified and elegant.

The jewels on her head swayed gently with her steps, and every step she took exuded majesty.

When they arrived at the palace hall, all the concubines had just arrived.

Everyone was surprised that the Queen got up so early.

If it had been before, I'm afraid they would have had to chat for a while before the Queen finally arrived.

Unexpectedly, today, not long after they sat down, the Queen appeared.

Seeing that she came so early, Concubine Ye thought that Shen Leyan was impatient and couldn't wait for the concubines to pay their respects to her.

Seeing Shen Leyan appear in such a gorgeous dress, he felt even more disdainful.

Humph, it's just a vase that looks good but is useless.

In the eyes of Concubine Ye, Shen Leyan is just a young girl who has just started out. If she is not favored by the emperor, what use would she be?

What's more, beauty is only temporary. She wants to see how long the emperor can favor her.

When she becomes the Queen Mother, she will definitely teach her a lesson!

Shen Leyan walked gracefully to the phoenix throne and sat down. She glanced at everyone and finally her eyes fell on Concubine Ye, then she looked away as if nothing had happened.

Of course, she did not miss the hatred and contempt in Concubine Ye's eyes.

Everyone looked calm, stood in order according to their rank, and then greeted the queen in unison.

"Your humble concubine/your humble concubine pays respects to Her Majesty the Queen, may Her Majesty be blessed with good health and good health."

Shen Leyan sat on the Phoenix throne, picked up the teacup and took a sip, then smiled and said, "Get up, take a seat."

"Thank you, Queen."

"Have you kept me waiting for a long time, sisters?"

A noble of lower rank rushed to curry favor with the new Queen Shen Leyan and said, "Your Majesty, you are joking. It is only natural for the concubines to wait for you."

In this palace, if these concubines of low rank do not seek the protection of the queen in higher rank, they will only be bullied.

Concubine Lan and Shen Leyan were already acquainted with each other. She bowed slightly and said in a gentle voice, "We have only just arrived. How dare we trouble the Empress to worry about us?"

The other concubines also echoed and began to compliment the Queen.

Some concubines who saw Shen Leyan for the first time were shocked by the appearance and temperament of the Queen.

They had heard that the emperor's newly appointed empress was very young and good-looking, but they had not expected her to be so stunningly beautiful.

No wonder the emperor couldn't wait to enthrone Lu as queen after abolishing her.

Born into the prime minister's mansion, her status is naturally noble, and now that she is the queen, she is even more honorable.

The Queen is not only favored by the Emperor, but also has the support of the Empress Dowager.

These are things they can't compare to, so don't they have to curry favor with her?

Concubine Ye found it particularly irritating to see the concubines surrounding Shen Leyan and praising her like they were performing an opera.

These people are fence-sitters who go wherever the wind blows.

So shameless!

Seeing her angry look, Concubine Lan at the side couldn't help but feel happy.
