Such a mistake could not be madeFortunately, the Emperor was a relatively kind and benevolent ry easilyThat hy Eunuch Yao did not have to worry about his life

He wiped the cold sweat froirls quietly behind the Eently help the Emperor as they walkedThey did not follow too closely

The lanterns hanging in the corridors of the Royal Palace were not brightThey were just used to illuht fell, the noblemen stayed inside their palaces and did not co about their business walked along these quiet corridorsNow, the slightly di and short shadowsIt irls they ran into to shi+ver and hurriedly kneel to the side

Just as Eunuch Yao guessed, the Emperor's earlier unhappiness was because of the wheelchair at the door of the royal studyOnce he saw the wheelchair, the E who had sat in a wheelchair for the decadesThey would often walk shoulder to shoulder with hi world affairs as if they were discussing the do plans, and esti EreatlyBecause of this, because of Chen Pingping's betrayal, there was suddenly a great deal of suspicion and disbelief surrounding these beautiful ry

Other than anger, he had another coo, because of the Hanging Temple incident, Fan Xian was heavily injured and had al man entered the Palace in a wheelchair and had talked with the E time

That was the first tih they still did not acknowledge the relationshi+p between the, for the Qing E the wheelchair tonight, he thought of Chen Pingping and the injured Fan XianHis erew complicatedHe slowly said, ”The reason I sentenced that old dog to die the death of a thousand cuts was because he was extremely evil and false”

Fan Ruoruo held his arm and maintained her distanceShe did not feel too tiredAfter hearing these words, she felt the Erow as heavy as Tai MountainIf the Emperor wanted an official to die, the official had no choice but to dieParticularly with Director Chen's treasonous actions, it was clear to heaven and earth that no one could use this matter to question the Emperor except Fan XianMore iHe had never thought to voluntarily explain anything to Fan XianYet, on this autuht, with just the two of the this to her or was he using her mouth to speak to her brother? Fan Ruoruo lowered her head slightly and did not reply, but she wondered endlessly to herself

The Emperor's expression was blankIt was as if he did not think he needed the daughter of an official to express thanks as he made the first cohtly was that after young lady Fan said those words, she did not say anything elseShe just calmly held his arm and continued to walk in the PalaceShe did notthe Palace

”You are different” The E”In the past, I often took Princess Chen in wandering around the PalaceAs she grew older, it became less frequentPlus, she is much cheekier than you”

”Naturally, I cannot compare to sister-in-law,” Fan Ruoruo replied in a low voiceThe Eirl next to hi of which, it was pitiful that after Lin Wan'er grew up, there probably were notthe Emperor company because the E and dead princes, the Emperor as certainly not a true father

Fan Ruoruo's heart was also filled with confusion and emotional upheavalAfter these days of interaction, the strange and awe-inspiring Eradually walked down fro outer robeHe had becoradually showing his age after a heavy injury

…

…

The young lady of the Fan family walked with the EmperorThis scene was seen by many peopleThis was not the first ti lady FanEver since the Emperor was injured in the royal study and she had entered the Palace to save him, everyone in the Palace knew the Ehtest intelligence knew that young lady Fan's current status was hostage, but there had never been such a hostage beforeHer rights in the Palace were like what Princess Chen's were in the pastOther than returning to her palace to rest at night, she spent the entire day in the royal study with the E fro state affairs

The scholars of the Hall of GovernhtThey were all people of status, so they would not blindly pass anything onHowever, whenever Scholar He saw young lady Fan in the royal study, his expression would appear slightly uncomfortable

It was not the same inside the Royal PalacePeople talkedIn a etful creaturesPerhaps the eunuchs and serving girls in the Palace had all forgotten that stor calendar, the bloody purge that had started because of ruossip

Perhaps it was because too o and the new eunuchs and serving girls brought in to fill the rank this season did not know about the danger hidden in the atmosphere of the royal familyPerhaps it was because the E lady indeed confused radually spread in the Royal Palace

The Emperor was a wise ruler who did not lustthese years, there were only about a dozen concubines in the Royal PalaceOnly four of those had childrenNo one would guess in that directionHowever, the E lady Fan was truly uniqueWith the other major event that had recently happened in the Palace, it involuntarily triggered tooof concubines for the E Royal Palace had stopped for a dozen years raised its curtains again

No one understood why the Ehts to suppleers beyond ered this Eo, with the Taichang Te and the internal court and Board of Rites assisting, the concubine choosing event beganAs the Qing Kingdom was now unfamiliar with this process, the Board of Rites appeared so Kingdom had probably received the edictYet, those woh to be chosen in the Palace had not heard any whisper of thisSo, the first place to start was still Jingdou

This was a rare opportunityThe noble fa tirasp this opportunityEven during such a confused process, they still e-appropriate wo sense of youth suddenly appeared in the Royal Palace that had been quiet for h it was nightti out periodically fro were overflowing and filled the autumnal PalaceThe people of the Palace had turned speculative gazes toward the royal studyIf the E lady Fan, who had won the Emperor's affections, be dealt with?

”They're all a bunch of idiots,” Yi Guipin saidHer eyelids slightly shuttered as she gently pulled on the Third Prince's handShe smiled coldly, and said, ”Do they not knohat kind of person the Es come from the Palace?”

”Most of the Palace are idiotsWith too s” The Third Prince, Li Chengping, s day, worry grew heavier between his previously unclouded brows

Yi Guipin looked at her son and sighed gently”The E so absurdThe choosing of concubines this ti to do with that person in the royal studyYour father is just…”

She did not finish what she was sayingLi Chengping raised his head and looked at his mother orry”I heard that father will su concubines… I'm afraid that father will not trust teacher the same as he did in the past”

The Emperor waved his hand and everyone outside the Fan manor was pulled awayThis was the power a feudal lord hadHe could do as he wishedAs for those subordinates and officials who died confused outside the Fan manor because of the battle between the father and son, who cared about them?
