Ye Zhen sat in the carriage for most of the day and slept in the carriage for a long time. At this time, she did not feel tired and just wanted to walk around. As for the two new maids sent by Mo Rongzhan, she did not know them well enough and did not intend to let them serve her closely. Anyway, they only needed to protect her and they could also protect her outside.
"Niang, that Dong He and Xia He seem to be a martial artist." Hong Ying held Ye Zhen's hand and walked around Daohua Courtyard. Looking at the two maids not far away, she could not help but lower her voice to remind Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen smiled faintly. "If they don't know martial arts, they won't be here. Don't think too much about it. It's no problem for the emperor to assign them."
Although Hong Ying did not understand what the emperor meant by doing this, did he want more people to protect his niang?
"Niang, there is another world behind this courtyard!" Hong Ying held Ye Zhen's hand and looked at the garden behind the courtyard in surprise.
This Daohua Courtyard originally had two gardens. The front was already a big courtyard. Unexpectedly, there was another garden behind the dormitory. In the middle of the garden was a bamboo house built with purple bamboo. Hong Ling went forward to push the door open and cried out in surprise, "It's a hot spring!"
"This garden is very beautiful!" Ye Zhen's eyes flashed with joy. She liked this new yard. Every flower and grass here was Mo Rongzhan's idea. When did he prepare this yard here? She didn't know it at all!
"Niang, the emperor is so good to you," Hong Ying said with a smile. "Even if you live in the villa, the emperor thinks of you all the time."
Ye Zhen looked at the garden, and a sour and sweet feeling welled up in her heart. She didn't know if her heart was connected, but she suddenly turned her head and saw Mo Rongzhan coming in from outside.
Hong Ying and Hong Ling looked at each other, and the two of them left quietly.
"Are you done?" Ye Zhen asked with a smile, reaching out and hooking his arm.
"I asked Tang Zhen to increase the defense around the villa and let him stay here …" Mo Rongzhan whispered.
Ye Zhen sighed helplessly. "You still need people in the capital. If you let Tang Zhen stay here, you will have one less person who can help you. I am surrounded by soldiers. What else can I do?"
"Yaoyao …" Mo Rongzhan lowered his eyes and frowned at her.
"I am not under house arrest here. I don't need so many people. If Tang Zhen stays, I will have to worry about the people around you who are not trustworthy." Ye Zhen said angrily. "If you do this again, I will go back to the palace with you."
Mo Rongzhan smiled bitterly. "Alright, I'll listen to you."
"Walk with me," Ye Zhen said with a smile. "When did this paddy garden expand? Why didn't I know about it? And this hot spring … It looks really good. Unfortunately, I can't go and play now."
"I also don't remember when it was expanded. Not long after I returned to the palace, I received a memorial saying that it had already been expanded. It seems like it was a long time ago," said Mo Rongzhan.
Ye Zhen hooked her arms around his neck, stood on tiptoe and kissed his chin. "I like it very much!"
A smile appeared in Mo Rongzhan's deep eyes. "As long as you like it …"
"Why don't you go back? Don't you have morning court tomorrow?" Ye Zhen buried her face in his arms, really reluctant to part with him.
"No hurry, I will accompany you for dinner before going back." Mo Rongzhan's voice was slightly hoarse. He took her hand and walked forward. "I also want to walk around."
Ye Zhen saw that he was really not in a hurry to return to the palace, and no longer urged him. Anyway, it was good to spend more time together.
… …
… …
The empress was sent out of the palace!
The news exploded like a thunder in the palace. As soon as Ye Zhen's carriage left the capital, the news could not be concealed and spread all over the palace. All the concubines couldn't believe it. They all came to Hu Yue 'er to inquire about the news. In their opinion, Hu Yue' er was the person who was about to lose the emperor's favor. She should know the situation best.
"Your Highness, An Huipin is outside, asking to see you," Xiang Qiao came in and said to Hu Yue 'er.
Hu Yue 'er said, "Let her go back."
She knew what An Xiuzhen was doing without thinking. She was not in the mood to deal with it now. Thinking that the empress was sent out of the palace, her heart was no longer calm.
Why … She didn't understand what the emperor meant by doing this. Did the empress fall out of favor like this? She still had the emperor's child in her belly. If it was a boy, he would be the emperor's eldest son. Even for the eldest son, the emperor could not let the empress lose her dignity.
Did the emperor just want to punish the empress for her jealousy?
Hu Yue 'er's heart beat faster. She held Xiang Qiao's hand. "Xiang Qiao, do you think the empress angered the emperor?"
Xiang Qiao whispered, "Niang, there must be something between the emperor and the empress that others don't know. Otherwise … otherwise, why did the emperor leave Yong Shou Palace yesterday and didn't go back? The empress must have done something!"
"She was sent out of the capital …" Hu Yue 'er gasped. The news was so incredible that she couldn't believe it was true.
"Niang, maybe this is a chance given to you by God." Xiang Qiao whispered. Without the empress in the palace, there was no doubt that the big stone in everyone's heart was removed. Whether they could please the emperor and become another lucky person in the palace depended on the ability of each master.
Their niang had just been conferred the title of Shu Fei and had a place in the emperor's heart. She definitely had more chances than the others!
Hu Yue 'er stood and walked to the bedside. Looking at the faintly discernible Yong Shou Palace in the distance, her eyes lit up, "This is ben gong's chance … …"
The empress wasn't in the palace and the emperor wouldn't continue to go to Yong Shou Palace. The other people in the hougong all had a chance to serve the emperor. This time, she wouldn't be as naive as last time. She would make the emperor truly care about her!
"Niang, where do you think the empress will be sent to?" Xiang Qiao walked to Hu Yue 'er's side with a stack of melons.
Hu Yue 'er shook her head with a smile, "It's hard to say. It should be to Cheng De Villa. After all, she's pregnant!"
It was best if she never came back! Xiang Qiao thought in her heart. That way, their niang would have a chance to stand out!
"Secretly go ask if the emperor is in the palace!" Hu Yue 'er said to Xiang Qiao in a low voice.
Xiang Qiao nodded lightly, "This servant will go ask now!"
Right now, everyone in the palace was guessing that Shu Fei was favored. It wasn't hard for her to spend some money to ask for information. Many people wanted to have a good relationship with Xiu He Palace!
It didn't take long for Hu Yue 'er to obtain the information she wanted!
"Niang, I heard that the emperor has always been in Qian Qing Palace. Fu gonggong hasn't even left!" Xiang Qiao whispered in Hu Yue 'er's ear.
Hu Yue 'er finally revealed a real smile, "Don't go out to ask for any information these few days. Just quietly stay in Xiu He Palace!"
The emperor didn't like women who were too much of a spotlight, and he wouldn't allow anyone to add insult to the empress!
