The little palace maid fetched hot water for Ye Zhen. When she wanted to serve Ye Zhen in the bath, she was sent away. After knowing that she had a secret, Ye Zhen did not like others to serve her in the bath. She had gradually become accustomed to being alone.
She was not tired today, but she was in a bad mood. After soaking in the hot bath, she lay down and fell asleep not long after.
The bright moon hung high in the sky. The palace was quiet late at night. Only the palace maids carrying peony lanterns walked around silently like wandering spirits.
Lu Wushuang, who was in the Kunning Palace, could not sleep well tonight. She waited for a long time, but Mo Rongzhan did not appear. She sent someone to secretly inquire about him and learned that he was staying in the Palace of Heavenly Purity tonight. She really did not know whether to be happy or angry.
Would he rather stay in the Palace of Heavenly Purity than come to her place?
At this time, the Palace of Heavenly Purity was not very calm.
Not long after Mo Rongzhan finished reading the memorial, he planned to change his clothes and go to bed. However, his eyes suddenly stung and tears kept flowing out. Since his eyes regained their sight, such a situation had never happened. He was a little shocked.
"Your Majesty, are you all right?" Fu De had been by Mo Rongzhan's side for many years. Seeing Mo Rongzhan like this, he was also frightened.
"Go to the prince's residence in person. If the little prince is safe and sound, bring Lu Yaoyao here." Mo Rongzhan covered his eyes with a white cloth. He felt that there was something wrong with the medicinal diet he ate not long ago.
If Ah Yi was fine after eating the same thing, then it would not be a problem with the medicinal diet. But why did his eyes hurt when he ate it?
Perhaps only Lu Yaoyao knew the answer.
Ye Zhen was awakened from a deep sleep. She was still a little sleepy and couldn't open her eyes. She didn't know what happened.
"Miss Lu, wake up." Nuan Ren gently shook Ye Zhen awake.
"Nuan Ren?" Ye Zhen saw who woke her up and thought that something had happened to Mo Rongyi. She immediately woke up. "What's wrong? Did something happen to the little prince? "
Nuan Ren whispered, "No, the little prince has fallen asleep. It's Eunuch Fu who came to invite you to the Palace of Heavenly Purity."
Ye Zhen was completely awake now. "Palace of Heavenly Purity?"
"Miss Lu, hurry up and get changed." Nuan Ren didn't know why the Palace of Heavenly Purity was looking for Miss Lu, but looking at Eunuch Fu's expression, she was afraid that it wasn't what she guessed. Something must have happened.
What did Mo Rongzhan want to do? Asking her to go to the Palace of Heavenly Purity at this time, if news of this were to spread out, how would she still be able to show her face?
"Sister Nuanren, did Eunuch Fu say anything?" Ye Zhen's face was a little pale. She didn't want to go to the Palace of Heavenly Purity at all.
"Eunuch Fu went to see the young prince just now and asked him if there was anything strange after he ate. Miss Lu, I'm afraid it's not what you think," Nuan Ren said in a low voice.
What was Ye Zhen thinking? Naturally, this was what most people would think. The emperor suddenly sent someone to look for her in the middle of the night. No matter who it was, they would think that it was because of that layer of meaning.
In the past, whenever the emperor took a fancy to a palace maid, didn't he always have someone send her to the Palace of Heavenly Purity to serve him in the middle of the night?
Hearing Nuan Ren's words, Ye Zhen finally calmed down. Probably different from what she was worried about, Mo Rongzhan was not such a person. If he really liked her, he would not use such a way.
She was not an ordinary palace maid, she was the daughter of the Lu family.
"Then I'll go first." Ye Zhen said softly. Now, she had no other choice but to go to the Palace of Heavenly Purity.
How could she not go?
Ye Zhen put on the palace maid's clothes given to her by Nuan Ren and came out with her hair tied up in a simple bun. Eunuch Fu didn't say much when he saw her dressed like this, but looked at her with complicated eyes.
"Eunuch Fu, I don't know what's the matter for you to come here so late at night?" Ye Zhen saw that only Eunuch Fu came alone, and not even a little eunuch followed him. Obviously, he didn't want to disturb others.
"Miss Lu, hurry up and come with us." Eunuch Fu's tone was slightly tense.
Ye Zhen was sensitive to the fact that Eunuch Fu's attitude was different from when he went to see her at noon.
She took a deep breath, lowered her head, and followed behind him in silence all the way to the Palace of Heavenly Purity. In the eyes of others, Ye Zhen's attire was nothing more than a little palace maid.
The Palace of Heavenly Purity was the place where Mo Rongzhan met his ministers and rested. Ye Zhen's soul often appeared here, so she was no stranger to the Palace of Heavenly Purity.
However, she didn't expect Eunuch Fu to take her into the bedroom. Ye Zhen was shocked. "Eunuch Fu?"
"Miss Lu, come in quickly." Eunuch Fu's tone was a little anxious.
Ye Zhen's heartbeat accelerated, thinking that if Mo Rongzhan dared to do anything to her, she would kill him even if she had to!
When she walked into the bedroom, she was a little stunned.
Mo Rongzhan was dressed in a bright yellow traditional Chinese medicine robe. He covered his eyes with a white cloth in one hand and put the other on his knee. His whole body emitted a cold aura, completely different from the one she saw in the prince's room.
"Lu Yaoyao, come here!" Mo Rongzhan's voice was as cold as ice.
Ye Zhen held her breath. She felt that Mo Rongzhan looked a little abnormal. She curtsied and did not walk over as she was told. "This subject's daughter greets the emperor. May the emperor have many blessings."
"What did you put in the medicated diet?" Mo Rongzhan asked coldly. Since Eunuch Fu brought her here, it was obvious that Yi was fine.
That meant that the medicated diet was not poisoned.
Ye Zhen was stunned. "Your Majesty, this subject's daughter doesn't understand what you mean. The medicated diet is naturally poisoned."
Mo Rongzhan loosened the white cloth in his hand. "Is your medicated diet harmful to people's eyes?"
"Of course not …" Ye Zhen looked at Mo Rongzhan's eyes and the white cloth in his hand in astonishment. What was going on?
Eunuch Fu whispered, "Miss Lu, the emperor's eyes have been uncomfortable. Is it because he ate your medicated diet?"
Ye Zhen pursed her lips. "This, this subject's daughter can't say for sure. Just now, this subject's daughter said that the medicated diet was for the little prince to eat."
Haha, let him eat it too, this is retribution!
"Do you think …" Mo Rongzhan's voice was low and deep. "Just because I want to eat the medicated diet, I won't convict you?"
Ye Zhen was shocked when she heard this. It was too early for her to gloat. "Your Majesty, those medicated diets can't harm people's eyes. This subject's daughter thinks … maybe it's your Majesty's own problem."
Mo Rongzhan could not open his eyes because they had been crying. Otherwise, his eyes at this time would have frozen Ye Zhen to death.
"If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can ask an imperial doctor." Ye Zhen said.
If an imperial doctor could be invited, Mo Rongzhan would not have asked Eunuch Fu to bring her here secretly. Now that the world was not really stable, he must not let anyone know that his eyes were in trouble again.
He used to be blind, and in this life, he was not willing to live in the dark.
"Cure my eyes." Mo Rongzhan whispered. His voice was flat, without any threat, but it sent a chill down Ye Zhen's spine.
