Hu Yue 'er never thought that a marquis would dare to threaten her like this in the palace.
Yes, she felt threatened by Tang Zhen!
Was he ordered by the emperor, or was he really so bold?
Hu Yue 'er stared at him incredulously and found that his eyes were cold as if she was going to hurt his beloved.
In a flash, Hu Yue 'er remembered a rumor she had heard. She heard that Marquis Jingning and Lu Lingzhi were sworn brothers. Before Lu Yaoyao entered the palace, she often went hunting with Marquis Jingning. Marquis Jingning also gave her a silver whip. If Lu Yaoyao hadn't entered the palace to become a doctor, if the emperor hadn't seen Lu Yaoyao and heard that Lu Yaoyao was going to marry Tang Zhen, they would have already talked about marriage …
Tang Zhen hadn't forgotten Lu Yaoyao!
"Honored Consort Shu, I will leave first." Tang Zhen didn't care what Hu Yue 'er would think. He just told her the words first. As for whether she would gamble with the Hu family's life, it was up to her to choose.
Hu Yue 'er held her breath in her chest and couldn't spit it out. "Marquis Jingning, you dare to covet the emperor's woman …"
Tang Zhen turned back sharply and looked at her with murderous eyes. "Honored Consort Shu, it seems that you still haven't learned to be smart. You should think about what you should say and what you shouldn't say."
"You …" Hu Yue 'er felt a sharp murderous aura coming at her. She just looked at Tang Zhen coldly and didn't dare to say another word.
Tang Zhen left Xiuhe Palace. He had to find out who brought the news that Hu Yue 'er was going to Chengde Villa out of the palace and into the ears of the Pei clan.
"Niang niang, do you want to go back to the house?" Miao Ling asked as usual, as if she didn't see Hu Yue 'er's face turn red and white because of Tang Zhen's anger.
Hu Yue 'er was inexplicably stimulated by Miao Ling's indifference. She grabbed Miao Ling's hand. "Do you also think that this consort is doing stupid things?"
Miao Ling whispered, "Niang niang has your own considerations in everything you do. This servant doesn't dare to comment."
"Yes, how dare you comment? You are here to monitor this consort." Hu Yue 'er shook her hand off. Anyway, she would be able to see Lu Yaoyao tomorrow. She wanted to see how Lu Yaoyao was doing in Chengde Manor.
"Niang niang, this servant will send you back to your room," said Miao Ling in a low voice.
Hu Yue 'er pushed her hand away and walked towards the bedroom.
The next day, Hu Yue 'er opened her eyes at dawn. Thinking of going to Chengde Villa today, how could she fall asleep?
"Niang niang, you're awake?" Sumei's light voice rang out. "This servant will go fetch some water for Niang niang."
Hu Yue 'er looked around. Why didn't she see Miao Ling?
Sumei quickly fetched some hot water. "Niang niang, this servant will help you wash up."
"Where is Miao Ling?" Hu Yue 'er helped Sumei up the bed. Previously, Miao Ling was the one who served her and would not let Sumei enter the bedroom.
"Eunuch Fu called Sister Miao Ling over. She asked me to serve you today," Sumei said happily.
Hu Yue 'er nodded faintly. Miao Ling would probably no longer be working at Shūwa Palace soon.
"You will go out with me today." Hu Yue 'er said. It was almost time. Tang Zhen should send someone to pick her up to Chengde Villa.
"Yes, Niang niang." Sumei responded with a smile.
After Hu Yue 'er had breakfast, Tang Zhen sent someone to pick her up and take her out of the palace.
The soft sedan didn't stop until they reached the palace gate. Tang Zhen stood next to a carriage and looked at Hu Yue 'er indifferently. He didn't want to send Hu Yue' er to Chengde Villa at all, but he believed that if he didn't do this, Yao Yao would really go back to the palace with a big belly. At that time, it would be even worse.
He only hoped that this Hu Yue 'er would not do stupid things.
"Empress Shu, please." Tang Zhen said indifferently.
Hu Yue 'er got off the carriage with Sumei's hand and looked back at Tang Zhen. "Marquis Jingning, you can rest assured. My life is worthless in the eyes of others, but I think it is precious."
Tang Zhen said expressionlessly, "Empress Shu is a smart person."
"Marquis Jingning is … a lover." Hu Yue 'er smiled sarcastically and got into the carriage.
Sumei was nervous. She didn't know that Empress Shu was going out of the palace today. Where was she going?
"Let's go." Tang Zhen got on the horse and told the eunuch to set off.
Hu Yue 'er had been in the palace for so many years, but it was the first time she went out of the palace. She sat in the carriage and didn't move. Thinking that she was going to see Lu Yaoyao soon, her mood was complicated and sour. When Lu Yaoyao was sent out of the palace, she thought she finally had a chance. Who would have thought that she was just a shield?
She was poisoned, she couldn't have children, and her voice was ruined. Wasn't it all because of Lu Yaoyao?
She didn't know how long the carriage had been going. Hu Yue 'er felt a little tired. She asked Sumei to open the curtains a little. She saw that it was already a mountain road outside. In the distance, she could vaguely see the roof of a mountain. Her heart skipped a beat. They were almost at Chengde Villa.
"Empress, what is this place?" Sumei asked Hu Yue 'er in a low voice.
Hu Yue 'er smiled faintly, "Chengde Villa."
Sumei froze for a moment. That … wasn't that … the place where the Empress was neglected? Why did Empress Shu come here?
Suddenly, the carriage stopped in front of them. More than a dozen shadow guards appeared from nowhere and stopped Tang Zhen's carriage. "Marquis, the Emperor ordered that no one is allowed to enter the mountain to disturb the Empress."
Tang Zhen whispered, "It is Empress Shu from the palace who entered the mountain. The Empress wants to see her. Unless you dare to stop the Empress from entering the palace, let her in."
"…" The dozen shadow guards looked at each other. They really didn't have the courage to stop the Empress.
"The Empress is about to give birth. If she forces to go down the mountain and something happens, you and I can't afford it." Tang Zhen said. He only thought that Yaoyao must give birth to the child safely. As for whether Hu Yue 'er would cause any misunderstanding, when the Emperor came back, he would naturally know.
When the shadow guards heard this, they had to let them go.
Hu Yue 'er in the carriage breathed a sigh of relief, but on the way to the mountain, someone kept coming out to stop them.
She finally saw with her own eyes how much the Emperor valued and cherished Lu Yaoyao. If there were so many people in the palace to protect her, how could she have been poisoned?
Seeing such a scene, who could believe that the Empress had fallen out of favor?
Sumei had already been shocked. It seemed that … the situation of the Empress was a little different from what she had thought.
The carriage finally came to the gate of the villa, where Xue Lin and Wu Chong were already waiting.
Hu Yue 'er was asked to dismount and entered the villa in a soft sedan.
This place … was so beautiful!
Sitting in the sedan, Hu Yue 'er took in the beautiful scenery of the villa, and a faint smile appeared on her mouth. "Fallen out of favor …"
Oh, who could compare to Lu Yaoyao's favor?
...
