?
Ye Yaoyao knew that someone had been watching her. It seemed that Mo Rongzhan really did not trust her. However, even if she wanted to do something to the Empress Dowager, how could those people see through it? So what if there were more people watching her?
However, with Mo Rongzhan so guarded against her, it would be impossible for her to get what she wanted, at least not now.
She still needed more patience until the Empress Dowager listened to her.
"Yao'er ….." The Empress Dowager woke up and saw Ye Yaoyao standing by the window. She called out to her.
The darkness on Ye Yaoyao's face was replaced by a warm smile. She turned to look at the Empress Dowager, "Empress Dowager, you're awake?"
"Aijia hasn't slept so comfortably in a long time." The Empress Dowager said with a smile. She didn't think that just having Ye Yaoyao read for her would make her feel so relaxed.
"The scenery here is beautiful, Empress Dowager can naturally relax." Ye Yaoyao said with a smile.
The Empress Dowager held her hand to sit up, "Aijia doesn't want to go back to the palace now."
Cheng Gugu came in from outside. She looked at Ye Yaoyao and went to help the Empress Dowager change her clothes and comb her hair.
"Why do you look so depressed these days?" The Empress Dowager asked Ye Yaoyao.
Ye Yaoyao quickly shook her head, "Empress Dowager, this concubine isn't. This concubine is so happy to be with you."
The Empress Dowager waved her hand for Cheng Gugu to leave, "Don't think that aijia's old eyes can't see. Speak, did the Emperor say something to you before coming?"
"Empress Dowager ….." Ye Yaoyao looked at her with surprise as if she didn't think the Empress Dowager would see through.
"How can a child like you hide your thoughts? Can you hide your thoughts towards the Emperor from aijia? Aijia knows that the Emperor went to Zhong Cui Palace to find you, what did he say to you? "The Empress Dowager asked.
Ye Yaoyao lowered her head, her hands tightly clasped together.
When the Empress Dowager saw her like this, she knew that the Emperor didn't go to Zhong Cui Palace to have sex with her. She couldn't help feeling angry, "Tell aijia, what happened?"
"Actually nothing ….." Ye Yaoyao said in a small voice, "The Emperor let this concubine choose to leave the palace or ….. continue to live in the palace like this."
"Leave the Imperial Palace?" The Empress Dowager almost slammed the table and stood up. "What is the Emperor thinking?"
Ye Yaoyao smiled and said, "Empress Dowager, the Emperor is deeply in love with Yao Yao. Yao Yao doesn't like this concubine, so what he did was right."
The Empress Dowager yelled angrily, "What's right? What did he do for Lu Yaoyao? Oh, Lu Yaoyao doesn't like him spoiling other women. Can't there be other concubines in the palace? She hasn't even entered the palace, but she can't tolerate people. When she becomes the Empress in the future, won't even Aijia have to look at her face? "
"How could that be? Yao Yao treats you like a mother." Ye Yaoyao hurriedly said.
"Mother? Humph, if she treated me like a mother, she wouldn't have disappointed me again and again. "The Empress Dowager snorted coldly.
Ye Yaoyao lowered her head, not daring to speak.
"You can't leave the Imperial Palace. You don't have to worry about the Emperor. Leave everything to me," said the Empress Dowager.
"This …" Ye Yaoyao looked at the Empress Dowager awkwardly.
The Empress Dowager waved her hand to stop her from speaking. "Whether Lu Yaoyao can become the Empress or not is another matter. So what if she can't tolerate people? It's not her turn to run on the other concubines in the palace now. "
Ye Yaoyao's mouth flashed an imperceptible smile.

…
The atmosphere in the capital was getting more and more tense. The soldiers outside the city gate were getting stricter and stricter, almost to the point of not allowing people in and out. Ye Zhen was invited to the palace by Empress Fang early in the morning.
Because Empress Fang had Wang Siyue by her side, Ye Zhen rarely entered the palace. Although she and Wang Siyue had no old grudges, they didn't like each other, so it was better to see each other less.
Empress Fang had been raised very well. She hadn't seen her for only half a month, but she could already see that she had grown a lot.
Ye Zhen looked at the tonics that flowed like water and couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, it's better to stop with the tonics."
"Yao Yao, what do you mean? This consort believes that eating more food will make the child healthier. " Empress Fang was actually forcing herself to eat. When she heard Ye Zhen's words, she put down the bowl in her hand.
"It's good to eat some in moderation, but if you eat too much, it will be bad for the birth in the future." Ye Zhen whispered.
Empress Fang smiled. "I have chosen some of the best midwives."
Ye Zhen saw that Empress Fang didn't understand what she meant at all. She glanced at Wang Siyue beside her. "Doctor Wang, I let you stay with the Empress so that you can pay attention to the Empress's diet every day. Don't you know that too much tonics will lead to difficulties in the birth in the future?"
Wang Siyue was originally unconvinced by Ye Zhen, but since she knew her true identity, she suppressed that unconvinced feeling. Even if she was unconvinced, she couldn't overstep the other's status.
"These tonics were all sent by the Emperor. This subject has persuaded the Empress." Wang Siyue said.
Empress Fang patted the back of Ye Zhen's hand. "I will pay attention in the future."
Ye Zhen whispered. "Your Majesty, you are right to hope that the child can be born healthy and fat, but childbirth is not easy …"
"Is that so?" Empress Fang was a little hesitant. She believed that Ye Zhen would not harm her. "I will restrain myself in the future."
"After a while, when the month is full, you can also go out for a walk." Ye Zhen said with a smile.
Empress Fang nodded and looked outside with some concern. "All of you can leave!"
Only Empress Fang and Ye Zhen were left in the bedroom.
"Yao Yao, how is the situation outside? I have seen the Emperor's nervous expression these days. Is the Liu family going to rebel? "Empress Fang asked in a low voice.
Ye Zhen said, "Liu Wenxue is indeed missing. You can rest assured that the capital has taken precautions."
"This is not what I am worried about." Empress Fang sighed. "The Emperor has just ascended the throne, and his foundation is not stable. If the Liu family rebelled again, Dongqing will become more difficult."
Which country is not in a difficult situation nowadays? The world is not stable.
Ye Zhen said, "The Emperor is in charge of the affairs outside. Your Majesty just needs to give birth to the little prince safely."
Empress Fang chuckled. "Your way of comforting others is really not good."
"As long as it is useful." Ye Zhen said with a smile.
After leaving the Kunning Palace, Ye Zhen also went to the Qian Long Palace to feel the Emperor's pulse. This was specially instructed by Empress Fang. She was worried that the Emperor would ignore his health because of the recent troubles. It would be troublesome if he had an attack again.
Li Hang's body was not seriously affected. The medicine she prepared for him was soaked in spiritual spring water. As long as Li Hang took the medicine every day, there would be no problem.
"Your Majesty, you still have to pay attention to rest every day. Don't be too tired. Also, even if you forget to eat, don't forget to take medicine." Ye Zhen urged.
Li Hang laughed and agreed.
Ye Zhen also mentioned to Li Hang that Empress Fang was too nourishing. Tonics must be taken, but not without moderation.
Coming out of the palace, she went straight home.
"Where is Father?" Ye Zhen asked.
"Master met Zhao Yang Princess in the garden and is talking to her in the pavilion." Hong Ling whispered.
