Ye Zhen finished preparing the medicinal diet. She looked at it silently for a while and asked the palace maid to call Fu De over. She didn't want to go into the bedroom. Anyway, Mo Rongzhan didn't want to see her. He should be enjoying Xu Huiru's service at this time, so she didn't want to ruin his mood.
"Eunuch Fu, please send these to the emperor." Ye Zhen said with a smile. "I want to go to the Palace of Benevolence and Peace."
Fu De remembered the strange atmosphere inside just now and knew that the emperor and the princess were still quarreling, so he agreed. "Princess, this slave will bring it in for you."
Ye Zhen nodded with a smile, "Thank you, Eunuch Fu."
Seeing Fu De take the medicinal diet away, Ye Zhen left with relief.
When Mo Rongzhan saw that it was Fu De who brought in the dinner, his face became gloomier. "Where is Lu Yaoyao? Why did you bring it? "
Fu De thought to himself, wasn't it you who had a sour face just now as if you didn't want to see Her Royal Highness? Did I do something wrong? "Your Majesty, Her Royal Highness said she wants to go to the Palace of Benevolence and Peace."
Mo Rongzhan snorted coldly. "Put down the meal and get out!"
"Yes, Your Majesty." Fu De was frightened by Mo Rongzhan's inexplicable anger. After putting down the dinner, he hurried out.
Xu Huiru looked at Mo Rongzhan doubtfully, not understanding why he was angry all of a sudden.
Is it … because Lu Yaoyao didn't bring the dinner in person? With such a guess in her heart, Xu Huiru suddenly felt inexplicable panic.
"My beloved concubine, accompany me for dinner." Mo Rongzhan held his breath and said. He wanted to prove to Lu Yaoyao that even if she disdained him, the women in his harem still begged for his favor.
Xu Huiru suppressed the uneasiness in her heart and served Mo Rongzhan more gently.
Ye Zhen was also dining with the Empress Dowager in the Palace of Benevolence and Peace.
"Are you going out of the palace?" The Empress Dowager looked at Ye Zhen suspiciously. Why did she want to leave the palace at this time?
"Mother, I heard that my eldest brother's poison broke out today. The seven-node grass can no longer control his pain. I … I want to go home to see him." This was the only excuse she could find, even though she wished her brother would die.
The Empress Dowager hesitated for a moment. It was reasonable for her to ask Yao Yao to return home. After all, she had remained in the palace for so long. The Lu family must be very worried about her.
"The emperor's side … Consort Xu Xian is taking care of him. He probably doesn't need me tonight." Ye Zhen whispered.
"His Majesty allowed Consort Xu Xian to enter the Palace of Heavenly Purity?" the Empress Dowager asked in surprise.
Ye Rou nodded, "When I came over just now, Consort Xian was still in the bedroom with the Emperor."
The Empress Dowager laughed, "Looks like the Emperor is enlightened. Consort Xu Xian is a good person. It would be a good thing if she could get along well with the Emperor."
"Yes." Ye Zhen smiled perfunctorily, but there was some inexplicable bitterness in her heart.
"Then you should go home. Mr. Chen said that he will enter the palace at night. There is nothing to worry about with him here," the Empress Dowager said.
Ye Zhen breathed a sigh of relief. She really wanted to leave the palace. If she stayed a little longer, she would feel suffocated.
The Empress Dowager asked Aunt Cheng to arrange a palace carriage to send Ye Zhen back to the Lu family.
Ye Rou could not be bothered to go back to her room to freshen up. She hurriedly went to the upper room to look for Old Madam Lu.
"Yao Yao?" Old Madam Lu was very surprised to see her, and her eyes immediately turned red. "Come here, my sweetheart. I can only rest assured when I see you are well."
Although what happened in the hunting forest was still concealed for the time being, the Lu family could not hide it. Ye Zhen almost died in the tiger's mouth. Old Madam Lu and the others learned about it the next day. The family was on tenterhooks for two days. If it weren't for Lu Lingzhi's poison that diverted their attention today, Old Madam Lu would have gone to the palace to see Ye Zhen.
Pei Shi looked at Ye Zhen excitedly. All that was left was to snatch her daughter from the old madam's arms. "Why did you come home so late? We were all worried."
Ye Zhen said, "I also wanted to go home early, but there were some delays in the palace."
Old Madam Lu touched her cheek. "You've lost a lot of weight. Poor thing. It's good that you're all right."
"Grandmother, is everything okay at home?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice. She wanted to know what would happen to Lu Lingzhi. If he didn't die this time, she would make him suffer.
Now, she felt that letting him die was letting him off easy.
Old Madam Lu showed a sad expression. "Your eldest brother narrowly escaped death today. Fortunately, Doctor Qi invited Mister Chen to come, and finally relieved your brother's pain."
Mister Chen? Ye Zhen's face changed slightly. She knew Huang Fuchen's medical skills. Would he detoxify Lu Lingzhi?
"Yao Yao, your eldest brother is very worried about you. You will see him later." Pei Shi said.
Ye Zhen was a thousand times unwilling, but she wanted to know if Lu Lingzhi had been cured by Huang Fuchen now. "Well, I also want to see him."
"Ah, what bad luck has our Lu family suffered recently? Why is everything so bad?" Old Madam Lu sighed sadly.
First, Lu Lingzhi was poisoned on the way back. Then, Lu Wushuang was crippled and became a Taoist nun. Then, Yao Yao almost died in the tiger's mouth. One by one, these events made people tremble in fear.
"Grandmother, how is big sister now?" Ye Zhen pretended to be concerned and asked about Lu Wushuang's recent situation. She should be very unwilling to go to the Temple of Great Compassion. She was supposed to be a person who was favored for a lifetime, but now she has to accompany the lamp. No one could accept such a fact.
Old Madam Lu said, "The Empress Dowager showed mercy and let me see your eldest sister once. She is not as willful as she used to be. She has obediently shaved her hair and did not cry. She just asked your eldest brother to see her in a few days."
This is not Lu Wushuang's character! Ye Zhen immediately became vigilant. According to Lu Wushuang's past practice, she must be crying and screaming for the Lu family to help her leave the Temple of Great Compassion. It was impossible for her to be so calm.
There must be a demon behind this abnormality! What does Lu Wushuang want to do? Why must she see Lu Lingzhi?
Pei Shi was not very concerned about Lu Wushuang because she once tried to frame her daughter. Anyway, it didn't matter to them whether Lu Wushuang was rich or disgraced.
"Grandmother, then I will see my eldest brother first." Ye Zhen said. Now, she hated Lu Lingzhi more than before, but she also knew very well that it was definitely more difficult to deal with him than Lu Wushuang.
Old Madam Lu nodded with a smile. "Go."
Pei Shi stood up and said to Ye Zhen, "I'll go with you. I'm going to deliver medicine to Yan Zhi."
"You go." Old Madam Lu said wearily, "Tomorrow, I will go to the Huguo Temple to pray for blessings. Our Lu family should change its fortune."
Lu Shiming laughed and said, "Mother, this is all nonsense …"
Old Madam Lu glared at him. "How do you know if you haven't prayed for blessings?"
"Grandmother, I will accompany you." Ye Zhen said with a smile. She had no hatred for Old Madam Lu and was willing to be filial to her in place of her sister. The only people she wanted to avenge were Lu Wushuang and Lu Lingzhi.
