Leng Qiyue received the jade talisman. She curiously took the box and opened it. Upon seeing it, her face immediately turned pale.

”Esteemed Empress, look …”

Leng Qiyue received the box and looked at it, her expression becoming unnatural. There was actually a jade seal in the box, a square white jade seat, and on it was carved a life-like phoenix. The phoenix had a jade ruyi in its mouth, and this jade seal was actually exactly the same as the phoenix seal she had made up.

This thing was truly something that could not be seen. Just when he was about to forget about it, it actually appeared on its own.

”Xiao Jin, where did this thing come from?” Leng Qiyue asked.

Xiao Jin danced as he gestured. Leng Qiyue looked at him for a long time before saying dejectedly, ”It's actually like this!”

Han Liu asked, ”Empress, this should be the Phoenix Seal, right? Why aren't you happy?”

Leng Qiyue sighed. ”How is this a phoenix imprint? It was left behind by the emperor.”

Han Liu's eyes widened as she asked in disbelief, ”The emperor still …?” ”How is that possible? Right now, everyone is looking for the Phoenix Seal, so how could the Emperor throw it away when he found it?”

Leng Qiyue sighed and said, ”It's fake.”

Han Liu was shocked again, but this time she could not speak.

Leng Qiyue patted Xiao Jin's head. ”Thank you.”

Xiao Jin ran away happily while squeaking.

Leng Qiyue pulled at Han Liu and said, ”Let's go. We still have to make a trip to see the Emperor.”

Han Liu hastened to say, ”Empress, it's late at night. Your majesty must have gone to bed.”

Leng Qiyue nodded. In fact, how could she not know that it was late at night? She was only looking for an excuse to meet Dongfang Haotian, but she had already decided to accept reality. Forget it, who told him to fall in love with a monarch. Everything was for himself. It was better to go back and wash up before going to sleep.

After returning to her bedroom, Leng Qiyue took a hot bath and fell asleep. She woke up early the next morning, took her things, and rushed to the Wolong Palace. As a result, when he arrived at Sleeping Dragon Hall and found that Dongfang Haotian hadn't returned from Rong Fei's place, his stomach suddenly filled with pain and his eyes bulged …

As soon as Dongfang Haotian entered, he saw Leng Qiyue sitting there with red eyes and a frown. She hadn't even noticed when he had entered.

”Beloved concubine, did you suffer any grievances?” Dongfang Haotian dismissed the palace maids and eunuchs.

Leng Qiyue quickly wiped her eyes and put on a smile. ”It's okay, I got the jade talisman. I'm preparing to leave the palace. Little Gold picked up this item. Does the Emperor recognize it? ”

When Dongfang Haotian saw the box, he knew what was inside. He smiled and said: ”This was originally an imitation by me. I left it for you to use as an emergency measure. That day, you pushed me over to another concubine's side and threw me away in a fit of anger. Let Little Gold pick it up? ”

Leng Qiyue thought for a moment, then said, ”The emperor is really far from here. He could actually throw it into the backyard of my sleeping quarters. I think you did it on purpose.”

Dongfang Haotian embarrassedly smiled and said: ”As long as you know. Why say it out loud. After all, I am the ruler of a country. Give me some face.”

Leng Qiyue giggled. ”Alright, the excuse is valid. When I leave the palace today, the empress dowager will definitely know that she won't touch me before obtaining the Phoenix Seal. As for Lin Fei …” It's hard for her to say. ”
