Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 194

"Something came up." Yun Xiyue's cheeks were still flushed; she had no idea when the man had taken away such a personal item from her.

Inside the brocade box was her bodice... a bright red one embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water.

She didn't know if it was sent by Murong Yu.

It's something he wouldn't do, but if it wasn't him, then who was it?

This undergarment was the one she wore when she met Murong Yu in the palace that day...

Yun Xiyue felt uneasy, fearing that her secret would be discovered.

Although Qingmei knew that she had a close relationship with the Emperor, neither of them knew the specifics.

When Yun Xiyue said she wanted to go to the palace, she quickly called Zisu to help her, and they got everything ready in no time.

Where is Master?

Bei Ye went out with her. "The divine doctor and the master went out together!"

"Ah."

It's better that my master and father are no longer here.

She hurried to the palace.

After getting into the carriage, Xiao Wei drove it towards the imperial city.

"Miss, can you enter the palace without the Emperor's summons?"

Yun Xiyue stood at the palace gate and slapped her forehead. "Look at my stupid brain, I forgot all of that."

Normally, she could only enter the palace when someone from the palace asked her to.

She is no longer the wife of a marquis, nor does she have an imperial title.

He was just a businessman.

He could not be seen without an imperial summons.

"Miss..."

As she was about to leave, Eunuch Fu came out of the palace gate. He stopped as if he were just passing by and saw her. "Are you going into the palace?"

Upon seeing him, Yun Xiyue stepped forward and said, "Yes! Eunuch Fu, I wish to see the Emperor. Could you take me to the Imperial Study?"

"Yes, okay." Grandpa Fu nodded hurriedly.

Xiaowei and Beiye exchanged a glance.

The two of them had a tacit understanding.

Bei Ye followed them into the palace.

Yun Xiyue was filled with unease throughout the journey.

"Grandpa Fu."

They met Pei Fang on the way.

"Xiyue, you've entered the palace? Is the Emperor looking for you?" Upon seeing her, Pei Fang came over with a friendly expression and took her hand like a good sister.

Yun Xiyue felt very uncomfortable; she didn't think the two were good sisters. "Yes, I've met Your Highness, Consort. Are you on your way to see the Emperor?"

"Yes! I'm preparing a hangover soup. His Majesty got drunk last night and must be feeling very unwell now."

“But the Emperor doesn’t want to see me. You’ve come at the perfect time. Please help me get the hangover soup for the Emperor!” Pei Fang said with a smile.

Yunxi Yue glanced at Eunuch Fu.

Eunuch Fu had someone take it, saying, "Your Highness, the Emperor is waiting for Miss Yun. There are matters that cannot be delayed."

"Cousin, why are you looking for Xiyue? Why are you always looking for her so frequently!" Pei Fang complained.

Yun Xiyue clenched her fists, a cold sweat breaking out on her brow, as she remembered the brocade box...

"Your Highness, the Emperor summoned me regarding the Scarless Cream."

Pei Fang's expression changed slightly. Why was the Emperor paying attention to this matter? Could it be that he wanted to cure Zhou Zhilan's face?

He intends to bring that woman into the palace and make her empress?

Thinking of this, she couldn't stay calm. Without bothering to test Yun Xiyue, she immediately went to Funing Palace.

Eunuch Fu said, "Miss, let's go!"

Yun Xiyue breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "Okay."

Royal study room.

Upon entering, one sees a man sitting at his desk, busy at work.

Eunuch Fu said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, the eldest young lady has arrived."

After saying this, he bowed and withdrew, leaving Yun Xiyue alone.

The vast imperial study was empty except for the two of them; you could hear a pin drop.

Murong Yu was busy and very focused, as if he hadn't even noticed her.

Yun Xiyue was somewhat anxious and stepped forward before he could speak, "Your Majesty..."

"Hmm, what do you want with me?"
