Traveling to the ancient harem

Chapter 345 Is it Shi Cairen?

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

When Huang Ye rushed to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, he saw the empress dowager sitting on a chair with a handkerchief stuffed in her mouth and her hands tied behind her back.

When the empress dowager saw Huang Ye coming in, she struggled violently. The emperor ignored her and just watched Eunuch Yu busying around asking Huang Ye to sit down.

Huang Ye bowed to the emperor and sat down. She looked at the empress dowager with interest.

The Queen Mother looks like this, making people...

It really makes me feel relieved.

"Mother, I asked Concubine Ye to come here because I want you to see clearly that she is not secretly communicating with the Southern Zhao Kingdom as you said. On the contrary, she is a meritorious official of the Great Xia Dynasty."

The Emperor said to the Queen Mother who was still struggling.

"Xiao Yuzi, untie the Queen Mother."

Seeing the yellow leaves, the emperor's mood obviously improved a lot.

Eunuch Yu quickly untied the ropes that bound the empress dowager and took the handkerchief out of her mouth.

"Ye Jieyu..."

The Queen Mother rubbed her arm, which was in so much pain that it felt like it was about to break, and looked at Huang Ye with hatred.

"What does the Queen Mother want to call me for?"

When Huang Ye came in just now, he also bowed to the Queen Mother.

There is no other way. She is the emperor's mother, and she cannot but give the emperor this face.

"How dare you..."

Hating Concubine Ye was one thing, but the fact that Concubine Ye actually colluded with the enemy was something the Queen Mother could not tolerate.

Although she is a little selfish, she still has a sense of family and country.

"Mother, I want to remind you that if Concubine Ye had not seen through Concubine Shu's trick, I might not be alive today."

The emperor said slowly.

"Your Majesty, can't you see that this is her brilliance? She has gained your trust, and this harem will be hers from now on."

The Queen Mother looked at her Emperor son with disappointment.

"She first asked you to arrest the Concubine Shu, and then rescued her. This way, the Emperor would not suspect her. After all, she was the one who asked you to arrest her."

"Her Majesty, do you think that I am as idle as you, and you are just arresting people and releasing them for fun?"

What Huang Ye couldn't stand the most was the Queen Mother being fooled. Anyone with a little bit of common sense wouldn't think that way.

The Queen Mother wished she could grab Hua Huangye's infuriating face.

"It is a fact that Anwu died in your hands. When he died, he was still holding your clothes in his hands..."

"It's just a false accusation. Your Majesty, you are not smart enough to believe such an obvious frame-up. I am really..."

Huang Ye shook his head regretfully.

Eunuch Yu lowered his head. He couldn't laugh. This Concubine Ye was so funny. The Queen Mother was...

The emperor was not one to be reserved. She looked at Huang Ye pretending to be mature and burst out laughing.

"emperor…"

The Queen Mother was furious. She was his biological mother. How dare he follow Concubine Ye to laugh at her?

"I want to ask the Queen Mother a question. I wonder if the Emperor will allow me to do so?"

Huang Ye asked the emperor.

"Yes."

Huang Ye walked up to the Queen Mother and stared into her eyes.

"I wonder who told the Queen Mother about my affair with the Southern Zhao Kingdom?"

The Queen Mother's pupils shrank quickly. This bitch, did she discover something?

She wouldn't be fooled. If she didn't tell anyone, Concubine Ye wouldn't be able to do anything to her.

"Don't talk about other things. Do you dare to say that the things you did were not true?"

The Queen Mother did not answer Huang Ye's question, but emphasized that what she said was true.

"I am just curious. The Queen Mother is under house arrest, so this matter should not be reported to you..."

Huang Ye carefully observed the Queen Mother's reaction.

"Let me guess... In your Cining Palace, besides Concubine Shi... it's Concubine Xu who comes to visit you from time to time."

"Ye Jieyu, please stop slandering me..."

The Queen Mother shouted angrily.

"It must be Concubine Xu... She hates me the most... Maybe she instigated you..."

Seeing the queen mother's expressionless face, Huang Ye basically ruled out Xu Rou as a suspect.

Yes, Xu Rou is such a stupid person, even if you want to use her, it is risky.

"Besides Concubine Xu, the only one left is Concubine Shi..."

"She framed me when she was in Chuxiu Palace, so it's possible that she instigated you to cause trouble in Yangxin Palace..."

Not only Huang Ye, but also Eunuch Yu and the Emperor were observing the Empress Dowager's expression. Seeing the flash of guilt in her eyes, what could these people not understand?

"It turns out to be Shi Yaoyao."

Huang Ye pretended to sigh and looked at the emperor crying.

"Your Majesty, please take good care of your harem. I am almost being killed by the women in your harem..."

She held a handkerchief to her eyes and looked like she was crying.

The emperor was simply... in love with her performance...

"Shi Cairen... I didn't know she had this ability."

The emperor tried his best to suppress his smile.

In fact, the emperor had no impression of this talented person named Shi at all, and he didn't even remember what she looked like.

"Your Majesty, Shi Cairen is loyal to you. She is also worried about you, afraid that you will be tricked by Concubine Ye..."

The empress dowager was a person who could not keep her temper. After being deceived by the treacherous little woman Huang Ye, she spoke out everything without caring about anything.

"Mother, please go back first. I will give you an explanation for this matter."

The Queen Mother refused to give up, but looking at the situation today, she knew that it was impossible for the Emperor to arrest Concubine Ye immediately.

"Ye Jieyu, don't be too proud too soon. We are not done with this matter yet."

The Queen Mother threatened as she walked away angrily.

"Okay, stop pretending. Everyone's gone."

The emperor looked at Huang Ye with amusement as he held the handkerchief to the corners of his eyes.

Why can’t he get enough of looking at these yellow leaves?

Huang Ye took his hand away swiftly, without any trace of the heartbroken look he had just shown.

"Your Majesty, there is something wrong with Shi Cairen."

"I want you to tell me."

The emperor glared at her and said, "Everyone knows this, okay?"

"Shi Cairen... must have just been a messenger. Someone else planned this..."

Huang Ye was thinking.

"I heard a piece of news before, it should be true, but..."

"Just say what you want to say. When did you learn to hesitate when speaking?"

The emperor likes people who speak directly.

"It's like this. I knew before that the talented Shi had joined the Qingyue Palace. I was afraid to tell it. Do you suspect that I was taking revenge?"

Huang Ye smiled guiltily. She did a little bit...want to kill or cripple Shi Yaoyao.

"Lin Jieyu."

The emperor murmured this name. This woman he was so familiar with was really...

"Old Yu, summon Xuanyuan Ze and Old Three to the palace immediately. I have something to discuss with them."

The Emperor likes to act with swift and decisive actions. Since this matter involves Concubine Shi and Concubine Lin, very good, let's hold a three-court trial.

Maybe, we can find out the whereabouts of Concubine Shu.

Huang Ye simply decided not to leave. These people gathered together to watch a great show. Didn’t you see the light in Hongdou’s eyes?

She didn't leave just to fulfill Hongdou's desire to watch the fun.

She is a person who likes quietness the most and doesn't like crowds.
