Xu Huiru came out of the Palace of Heavenly Purity with a pale face. She couldn't understand. Wasn't everything fine yesterday? She felt that yesterday's emperor was the most gentle and moved her since she entered the palace. Today, she was ready to serve the emperor as long as she continued to stay in the Palace of Heavenly Purity. Not to mention anything else, she wanted to give birth to a little prince for the emperor. But why did the emperor drive her out?
Was it because of Lu Yaoyao? Xu Huiru clenched her hands tightly. She still remembered the way the emperor looked at Lu Yaoyao yesterday. It was a man's eyes on a woman, full of aggression and possessiveness. It was not the look a brother should have.
Was there something shameful between Lu Yaoyao and the emperor?
The more Xu Huiru thought about it, the more frightened she became. Suddenly, she had an impulse to get rid of it.
At this time, Ye Zhen and Old Madam Lu were in Hu Guo Temple. She didn't believe that praying to Buddha was useful, but since she had such a magical experience, she felt that maybe Buddha really existed. Otherwise, how could he know her unwillingness and let her be reborn in her sister's body?
"Buddha, if you are really alive, please bless me to find my father and brother as soon as possible, and let those bad people get their retribution as soon as possible." Ye Zhen knelt down devoutly and saluted, while Old Madam Lu prayed for the Lu family.
They each had their own thoughts, but they didn't know whose prayers Buddha should listen to.
"Alas, now I dare not ask Buddha to bless our Lu family with wealth and splendor. As long as our children and grandchildren are safe, that is enough." Old Madam Lu sighed and led Ye Zhen to the back hall.
Ye Zhen looked at her. What she expected must be different from Old Madam Lu. She wanted Lu Lingzhi and Lu Wushuang to get their retribution. How could she want them to be safe?
"Yao Yao, look." Old Madam Lu pointed to an isolated temple on the opposite mountain. "That is the Nianci Temple. Your eldest sister is there."
The Nianci Temple was not called this before. It was just a nunnery. Later, because the nuns inside saved the former emperor once, the former emperor gave it this name. Later, it became a place for concubines who made mistakes to reflect on their mistakes. It was not so easy for ordinary people to enter.
"She will reflect there and know that the people who treat her best are the people of the Lu family." Ye Zhen whispered. In Lu Wushuang's eyes, it seemed that it was natural for others to treat her well.
Old Madam Lu sighed. "I hope so."
They did not stay in Hu Guo Temple for too long. Old Mistress Lu was still worried about Lu Lingzhi's health, so she donated 500 taels of incense money and brought Ye Rou back to the Lu family.
Fu De couldn't find Ye Zhen in the Lu family, so he could only return to the palace with a crying face. Under Mo Rongzhan's cold gaze, he stammered, "The servants of the Lu family said that the princess went to Hu Guo Temple early in the morning. I heard that she accompanied Old Madam Lu to pray for blessings. Your Majesty, maybe the princess went to Hu Guo Temple for you."
Hearing this, the frost in Mo Rongzhan's eyes inexplicably warmed a little. He pretended to raise his eyebrows indifferently. "Really?"
"The princess is more worried about His Majesty's health than anyone else. That must be the case," Ford said with absolute certainty.
Mo Rongzhan's lips curled into a smile. "You may leave. If Lu Yaoyao comes, tell her to come in."
Fu De looked at the emperor who was obviously in a better mood, and he almost cried in his heart. What if the princess didn't go to Huguo Temple to pray for him …
…
…
When Ye Zhen and Old Madam Lu returned to the Lu family, a servant told her that an eunuch from the palace had just come to see her and asked her to enter the palace immediately.
"Yao Yao, since the palace is looking for you, you should hurry. There may be something important." Old Madam Lu said.
"Which palace servant came to see me?" Ye Zhen didn't want to enter the palace very much, but she didn't know if the empress dowager had something urgent to see her.
"It's Eunuch Fu."
Ye Zhen frowned subconsciously, and there was some resistance in her heart. If it was Eunuch Fu, then it should be Mo Rongzhan who was looking for her. To be honest, she didn't want to see Mo Rongzhan at all.
Wasn't he kissing Xu Huiru? He refused to take his medicine, so what was she doing in the palace?
"Could it be that the emperor's condition has changed?" Old Madam Lu asked Ye Zhen in a low voice.
Ye Zhen sighed, "Grandmother, then I will go to the palace."
She thought that Mo Rongzhan didn't want to see her again. Did something really happen to him? Looking at his complexion yesterday, he should be much better. There should be nothing wrong.
Ye Zhen was full of questions. Originally, she wanted to go to the Thousand Gold House again today to see if there was any new news about her father. It seemed that she could only go next time.
After entering the palace, she went to the front bedroom.
As soon as Ford saw her, he was moved to tears. "Princess, you are finally here."
"What's the matter?" Ye Zhen looked at Ford's expression funny. "Is there something wrong with the emperor?"
"Your Majesty is fine. Mr. Chen came over this morning, but Your Majesty is looking for you. He doesn't seem to be in a good mood. This servant told Your Majesty that you went to Hu Guo Temple … to pray for him." Ford looked at Ye Zhen eagerly. His meaning was obvious. He hoped that Her Royal Highness would not expose his white lie.
"…" She must have eaten too much to pray for Mo Rongzhan.
Ford smiled flatteringly and respectfully. "Princess, please go in!"
Ye Zhen shook her head helplessly. When she entered the bedroom, she didn't see Mo Rongzhan's figure. She took a look and found that he had fallen asleep on the soft couch by the window.
She frowned and looked carefully at his complexion. It looked better than yesterday. She walked over quietly, took his hand, and felt his pulse. After confirming that there was no problem, she turned to leave.
Mo Rongzhan had already woken up when Ye Zhen walked into the bedroom. He wanted to know what she would do. When she came to feel his pulse, he was excited. He thought that she was lying, but in fact, she had him in her heart. But why did she let go of his hand so quickly?
"Lu Yaoyao!" Mo Rongzhan looked coldly at the person who had already walked to the door and was about to leave.
Ye Zhen turned her head in surprise and met a pair of dark and angry eyes. She bowed and said, "Your Majesty, what can I do for you?"
"Where have you been today? Are you not going to enter the palace if I don't let people look for you? "Mo Rongzhan looked at her indifferent face, and the joy in his heart was replaced by anger.
Ye Zhen said lightly, "Replying to Your Majesty, this servant accompanied grandmother to Hu Guo Temple today. I thought you didn't need this servant to cook medicine, so I didn't enter the palace."
Servant? Mo Rongzhan's expression became colder, and his eyes seemed to contain an iceberg, making people feel cold all over. "Lu Yaoyao, do you have to make me angry with you?"
Ye Zhen sighed in her heart. Why is this person so difficult to serve? "Your Majesty, what orders do you have? This servant will do it."
