Shen Yueji didn't care about his status or etiquette. She just wanted to prove to Feng Jiuqing that her guess was right or not.
She grabbed the Emperor's hand with her claws again.
Feng Jiuqing tried to brush her hand away but failed. He looked into her sparkling eyes and corrected her, "I can only enter and exit your Phoenix Perch Palace, not the palace."
"What?"
Shen Yueji pouted. "My brother is a gentleman. Your Majesty, are you suspecting that my brother can do anything to Your Majesty's beauties?"
Feng Jiuqing twisted his fingers and held her hand in his palm. He said with a faint smile, "I'm afraid that your son's attire will scare the people in the palace."
Shen Yueji was speechless.
...
"Your Majesty, Imperial Concubine, we've arrived at Tang Cai's residence."
Shen Yueji had been silent all along the way except for the few words she exchanged with the man.
She had a feeling that Gu Ruochi's sudden entry into the palace had something to do with her.
The Emperor was sitting next to her. He could see her every move, but she couldn't make it too obvious.
After hearing Gao Dezhong's words, she raised her head and looked at Tang Cai's residence.
In the palace, all the concubines, eunuchs, and palace maids lived in a palace that was not far from their bedchambers. It represented their identity and status.
Only the concubines, eunuchs, and palace maids would live in the same temple and temple.
It was said that Tang Cai's palace was personally given to him by Gu Yueyin. Compared to the bedchambers of the concubines, his palace was incomparable. But compared to the residence of the eunuchs and the palace maids who had some power in the palace, his palace was undoubtedly luxurious.
Just one person's residence was enough to support three palace's servants.
Sure enough, when she saw the displeasure in the Emperor's eyes, Shen Yueji followed behind the Emperor and got off the dragon carriage without saying a word.
Tang Cai had been in the palace for so many years that he was very good at reading people's expressions.
He saw the expression on the Emperor's face without a change. He hurriedly bowed. "This palace is bestowed by the Empress. There are many rare treasures inside, and it is also the Empress' high regard for this servant. This servant has always been afraid and has never dared to live in this palace. Most of the time, I have stayed in a small side hall of the Empress' palace in case the Empress summons me and delay time."
Tang then knew the position the Empress held in the Emperor's heart and specially used her name to block it.
Seeing that the displeasure between the Emperor's brows had dissipated a little, he let out a long breath and took the lead to lead the way.
Shen Yueji followed behind the Emperor and found a place to sit.
Gao Dezhong cleared his throat and looked towards the trembling Huai Yang: "According to what you said, His Majesty and the Imperial Consort are both here. Since you said that Eunuch Tang has a secret room, let's take a look."
Huai Yang crawled up from the ground and walked towards Tang Cai.
He passed by Tang Cai's side and received a disdainful and proud look. The fear that came from his heart caused his expression to tense up.
The decorations inside the hall were not as grand and luxurious as the ones outside.
There were signs that it had been moved. Even some of the items on the bookshelves had been burned. It looked like it had been adjusted in advance.
She carefully observed everything in the hall. A short while later, Shen Yueji's gaze looked towards Huai Yang.
She saw him walk behind a bookshelf. There was a painting hanging on the right side of the bookshelf. He pointed at the painting with a trembling hand.
