?
"Eunuch Fu?" Ye Zhen frowned at him. Every time she saw him, it meant that he was related to Mo Rongzhan. She subconsciously didn't want to see him.
Fu De smiled and said, "Your Royal Highness, the emperor invites you to the Palace of Heavenly Purity."
"Eunuch Fu, please tell the emperor for me. I have to go to the Empress Dowager's place, not the Palace of Heavenly Purity." Ye Zhen said with a cold face.
"Your Royal Highness, the emperor wants to invite you to play chess." Fu De hurriedly said, "His Majesty is addicted to chess, but no one in the palace is his opponent. Only you can play with him a few times."
My Library Tower! Ye Zhen's heart moved. The last time she lost eight games to Mo Rongzhan, she still felt a little upset.
"Isn't the emperor playing polo with the little prince?" Ye Zhen asked.
Fu De smiled and said, "The emperor came back after only one game with the little prince. He just read the memorials for a while and suddenly wanted to play chess."
Why did the emperor do this? Since he liked the third daughter of the Lu family so much, why did he pretend not to care and watch the Empress Dowager confer her the title of princess? Now he has more opportunities to get close to her, but what can he do? She is already a princess …
What did she do in the middle of the night last night? Her Royal Highness didn't seem to notice it at all.
"Then let's go!" Ye Zhen still wanted to go to the Library Tower. Maybe she could win a game today.
Fu De didn't expect the princess to agree. He thought that the emperor really knew the princess. As long as he said it was a game of chess, the princess would definitely go.
When they arrived at the Palace of Heavenly Purity, they saw a slender figure standing outside. Ye Zhen recognized it at a glance. It was Xu Huiru.
The Empress Dowager told her to care more about the emperor, so she immediately came to the Palace of Heavenly Purity to find Mo Rongzhan.
However, seeing her standing outside all the time, did Mo Rongzhan not let her in?
"Greetings to Consort Xian." Fu De went up and saluted. "Niang niang, what are you doing?"
Xu Huiru also saw Ye Zhen. She was slightly startled and said with a smile, "The Empress Dowager asked this Palace to send some snacks to the emperor. Eunuch Fu, please go in and report."
Fu De was stunned. He looked back at Ye Zhen and answered in a low voice, "Yes, Empress."
"Princess, did the imperial concubine ask you to come to the emperor?" When Xu Huiru saw Ye Zhen here, she thought it was for Lu Wushuang.
Ye Zhen was happy that she misunderstood. "Some things are inevitable."
Xu Huiru nodded. "This consort understands your difficulties, but I'm afraid you might not be able to see His Majesty."
Based on her observation these days, the Emperor had completely lost his love for Lu Wushuang. Lu Yaoyao came to plead for her, but most likely she would return empty-handed.
It seemed that she didn't need to play chess with Mo Rongzhan today. He would be more willing to spend time with Xu Huiru. After all, she was his new favorite concubine. Forget it, she would beat him again next time. She deliberately ignored her unhappy feelings and didn't want to know how much Mo Rongzhan liked Xu Huiru.
When Ye Zhen wanted to turn and leave, Ford came out from inside. "Your Royal Highness, the emperor invites you in."
The confident smile on Xu Huiru's face froze slightly. She looked at Ford in surprise.
Ford lowered his head and said, "Empress, the emperor said that he doesn't have the habit of eating snacks. He asked you to take the snacks back and enjoy them yourself."
What? Xu Huiru suddenly felt as if she had been slapped in the face. What did the emperor mean by this?
Why did the emperor see Ye Zhen but not her? She had made it very clear that she was sent by the Empress Dowager to deliver snacks to him. Even if he really didn't like the snacks, for the sake of the Empress Dowager, he should see her first.
Xu Huiru's face turned green and white. She looked at Ye Zhen. Did the emperor still think of Lu Wushuang? Did he know that Lu Yaoyao came to see him for Lu Wushuang?
Ye Zhen knew that Xu Huiru must be very unwilling, but she didn't say anything. It was useless to say anything at this time.
"Princess, please." Ford whispered to Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen nodded to Xu Huiru and walked in.
Xu Huiru suppressed the anger in her chest and said to Qian Lan, the palace maid beside her, "Go back."
"Your Highness …" Qian Lan looked at Xu Huiru hesitantly.
"I thought that Lu Wushuang had fallen out of favor. Now it seems that the emperor still remembers old affection." Xu Huiru couldn't help but feel jealous that Lu Wushuang could get the emperor's attention.
"Did the emperor know that the princess went to see Imperial Consort Lu, so he asked Eunuch Fu to invite her over?" Qian Lan asked in a low voice.
Xu Huiru was stunned. Just now … it seemed that Fu Fu brought Lu Yaoyao to the Palace of Heavenly Purity.
"It seems that the emperor is still clear about the harem." Otherwise, how could he know that Lu Yaoyao went to see Lu Wushuang?
Qian Lan comforted her, "Your Highness, the emperor only remembered old affection for the sake of the Marquis of Anyang and the princess. You are the emperor's favorite concubine now."
These words made Xu Huiru smile slightly. Yes, the Marquis of Anyang returned victorious and was injured on the way. Naturally, the emperor attached great importance to him. Lu Wushuang was Lu Lingzhi's sister. The emperor showed concern for her at this time because of her brother.
When she thought of this, the unhappiness in Xu Huiru's heart was finally relieved. However, she still had some inexplicable omens about Lu Yaoyao being able to enter the Palace of Heavenly Purity.
She had Lu Yaoyao's weakness, so she was not worried about her doing anything. As long as the emperor and empress dowager knew that she looked similar to Ye Zhen, they would naturally not be close to her.
Ye Zhen did not know that Xu Huiru was cursing her in her heart. She followed Fu Fu into the Palace of Heavenly Purity. Last time, she came here because of Mo Rongzhan's eyes. This was the place where her soul lingered the longest.
"Yaoyao, come here." Mo Rongzhan, dressed in dark blue casual clothes, sat leisurely on the kang by the window. When he saw Ye Zhen come in, he smiled and waved at her.
There was already a small table on the kang with a white jade chessboard on it. There was an unfinished game on the chessboard.
Ye Zhen bowed and looked up at Mo Rongzhan's clear eyebrows. "Your Majesty, Concubine Xu Xian is outside. Don't you want to see her?"
"I said that imperial concubines are not allowed to come to the Palace of Heavenly Purity. What is she doing here?" Mo Rongzhan said faintly and pointed to the opposite position. "Sit down."
Ye Zhen glanced at him. She remembered that Lu Wushuang often came to the Palace of Heavenly Purity before. Why didn't he say that imperial concubines could not come at that time?
"You want me to see her?" Mo Rongzhan looked up at her beautiful face, and his heartbeat accelerated. The extravagant and beautiful pictures of last night came back to his mind.
"Which imperial concubine the emperor wants to see is not something that I, his sister, can interfere with." Ye Zhen said lightly, "Today, if I win against you, can I go to the Book Tower?"
Mo Rongzhan said with a smile, "If you can solve this puzzle, I will let you go to the Book Tower tomorrow."
Ye Zhen's eyes brightened as she looked at the puzzle on the chessboard.
