Yao Ye hid in her room and didn't go out. She knew that Mo Rongzhan had already sent people to investigate secretly in Cining Palace. Sooner or later, he would find out about her. If it weren't for the Empress Dowager and her people covering for her, she would have been discovered by Mo Rongzhan long ago.
Seeing that Lu Yaoyao was about to enter the palace, she thought she could use the Empress Dowager to deal with that woman. Now it seemed impossible. If she continued to stay in the palace, she would be discovered by Mo Rongzhan sooner or later.
What should she do? It wasn't easy for her to survive. She didn't want to die like this. Did she have to hide in the Wilderness again?
"Miss Yao Ye, are you inside?" There was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Yao Ye recognized it was a maid of Cining Palace and opened the door to let her in. "Xiao Yi, why are you here?"
"Miss Yao Ye, Eunuch Fu has left." Xiao Yi turned back and closed the door. "Are you all right?"
"What can happen to me? I just can't stay in the palace anymore." Yao Ye's heart was filled with anger. It wasn't easy for her to gain control of the Palace of Compassionate and Peaceful. Today, she was too impatient. She should have advised the Empress Dowager not to provoke Lu Yaoyao. Now that she had completely angered the Emperor, he wanted to cleanse the Palace of Compassionate and Peaceful again.
Xiao Yi asked in a low voice, "Yao Ye, do you want to go to the Wilderness to ask Master for help? I'll watch the palace."
"What's the use of going to the Wilderness now? If I can't escape this time, I'll find a way out of the palace to find Dongmei. You also find a way to send the situation here to the Wilderness. I heard that your master is going to the Western Region. Tell him to be careful and not let anyone discover his whereabouts," Yao Ye said in a low voice.
"If you're not going to the Wilderness, where are you going?" Xiao Yi asked doubtfully.
Yao Ye looked coldly in the direction of the Palace of Heavenly Purity. She had suffered too much in the past. Being naked was of no use to her. It was the first time she had been moved. When she lost her memory and needed help the most, it was Mo Rongzhan who appeared in front of her. She fell in love with him, but he treated her like an old shoe.
Any woman who stands naked in front of a man, and that man calmly walks away unmoved is a disgrace.
She had tried everything to stay by his side, but he didn't even care about the Empress Dowager for Lu Yaoyao.
Lu Yaoyao …
A strong murderous intent surged in Yao Ye's eyes. If there was a chance in the future, she would make Lu Yaoyao suffer a fate worse than death. She would make Lu Yaoyao watch as the man she loved fell in love with someone else.
"Is the Empress Dowager awake?" Shao Ye asked softly.
"I just woke up not long ago. Are you going to find the Empress Dowager?" Xiao Yi frowned. "I'm afraid that the Emperor has already sent people to guard. It's best if you don't appear."
Shaking Ye sneered, "Even if I don't appear, do you think the emperor won't be able to find me? As long as I'm alive, there's nothing to be afraid of. "
"Aren't you afraid that His Majesty will kill you?" Xiao Yi asked hurriedly.
"Unless Your Majesty wants the Empress Dowager to die." Yao Ye curled her lips into a smile.
Xiao Yi was stunned. "What do you mean?"
Yao Ye didn't say anything. If the emperor thought that the Empress Dowager could be killed just because she was hypnotized, then just wait to collect the Empress Dowager's corpse.
Speaking of which, she really should be grateful to Lu Lingzhi. If he hadn't arranged for Dong Mei to stay by her side, she might not still be alive, and she might not have been able to control the Empress Dowager's will.
When Lu Yaoyao heard the Empress Dowager scolding her today, she wondered how she felt in her heart. Was she very uncomfortable?
With a sneer, Yao Ye opened the door and walked in the direction of the bedroom.
The Empress Dowager had indeed woken up. She was drinking medicine. When she saw Yao Ye coming in, she hurriedly waved. "Yao Ye is here, come here."
"Empress Dowager, are you all right?" Yao Ye walked over with red eyes.
"Ai jia is fine …" The Empress Dowager looked at her with a smile. "Ai jia thought something had happened to you. Yao Ye, hurry out of the palace."
…
…
"Is this the palace maid beside the Empress Dowager?" Ye Zhen took the portrait drawn by Zhao Yang and frowned.
"That's her. Do you know her?" Zhao Yang asked.
Ye Zhen looked at the portrait carefully. The woman was indeed very beautiful, but she was not Ye Yaoyao. No, her eyebrows and eyes were very similar. Her eyes did not look as timid as Ye Yaoyao. Could this person be Ye Yaoyao?
"I don't think I've seen her before, but when I look closely, I feel that her eyebrows, eyes, mouth, and nose are very similar to Ye Yaoyao." Ye Zhen whispered, "Do you think a person's appearance can change?"
"That depends on how it changes. Isn't it said that a girl changes eighteen times between childhood and womanhood?" Zhao Yang glanced at the portrait, "If you find her familiar, why don't you have His Majesty send someone to ask her? She's just a palace maid anyway. Also, if the Ye Yaoyao you mentioned is so capable, then wouldn't she know how to disguise herself?"
Disguise? Ye Zhen had a feeling of enlightenment. "If she is Ye Yaoyao, how did she survive?"
Zhao Yang smiled. "That I don't know."
Although Ye Zhen didn't know how Mo Rongzhan dealt with Ye Yaoyao, how could he let Ye Yaoyao have a chance to live? Could it be … the Empress Dowager saved her?
Thinking of this, Ye Zhen felt that many things could be figured out.
"I'll go to the palace now." Ye Zhen said. She wanted to meet the palace maid in person.
Zhao Yang took Ye Zhen's hand. "Tell me first, how does Lord Ye want to deal with the Prince's Mansion?"
"Oh, who told you that my father is going to deal with the Prince's Mansion?" Ye Zhen asked with a smile.
"Do you think I don't know you and Lord Ye? Madam He entered the palace yesterday to see the Empress Dowager. Will Lord Ye let her go?" Zhao Yang asked angrily.
Ye Zhen smiled faintly. "That's her retribution. Don't worry too much."
"Yao Yao …" Zhao Yang stopped her.
"I'm leaving. You will know what will happen to her in the future." Ye Zhen smiled and walked out of the hall.
Soon, she entered the palace and went directly to the imperial study to find Mo Rongzhan.
"Is this palace maid around the Empress Dowager?" Mo Rongzhan's portrait heard Ye Zhen's words and looked up at Eunuch Fu.
Eunuch Fu glanced at the portrait and was shocked. Why does it look so much like Lady Yao? "Replying to the Emperor, this old slave has never seen this palace maid in the palace. If I had seen her, this old slave would have recognized her."
Mo Rongzhan looked at the portrait coldly. "Go to the Palace of Benevolence and Peace and bring this palace maid here."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Eunuch Fu hurriedly responded.
"Do you think … she is Ye Yaoyao?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice.
Mo Rongzhan said in a deep voice, "She was poisoned at that time!"
"But you were not in the palace at that time. How do you know if she is really dead?"
"Let's see her first." Mo Rongzhan's voice was cold. Did he underestimate Ye Yaoyao, or did she have a backer behind her that he did not expect?
"If it is her … it is also a good thing. At least it can wake the Empress Dowager up." Ye Zhen whispered.
