C542 Warn consort xian (1/2)

”I am deeply grateful to the Empress and Her Highness, and I hope that the Empress can accept this bow.”

”Ahh, don't bow, don't move.” Imperial Concubine Liang quickly lifted her hand, helping her up with a smile as she pointed out, ”Zheng'er didn't do all this for you to make you worship me, do you understand?”

Lian Xiyue naturally knew what Imperial Concubine Liang meant. She couldn't help but blush slightly as she lowered her eyes and said, ”When we return home, I'll send a letter to the hall.”

”Then he'll be happy.” Imperial Concubine Liang said with a smile.

”Empress, please send away these two guards today. They have been exposed. In order to save Xiao Shan, Xiao Zhenhai will quickly investigate the people and matters related to today. He absolutely cannot implicate you.” Lian Ruyue thought of this and said.

”You've thought it through very carefully. You must send them off first. I'll immediately go and take care of it, so as to not cause too much trouble.” Imperial Concubine Liang nodded.

It was already late at night by the time he left the palace. Outside, dark clouds were pressing down, as if a heavy rain was about to fall.

Leng Mei was waiting outside. When she saw her, she stepped forward and asked, ”Eldest Miss, did you go back? I'll go to the Empress's place and fetch something that can shelter you from the rain. ”

Lian Ruyue's expressionless face was now filled with resolution as she said, ”There's no need to take it. Come with me to Dongxi Palace to meet Xu Xianfei.”

Winter Palace.

Xu Xianfei, Wei Ruchao, and Feng Ye were sitting in the hall, speechless.

Aunt, what exactly is going on? How did it become like this? How did my handkerchief end up in Xiao Rou's hands, causing those princesses to say that I was interested in Xiao Shan. When Wei Ru thought about how he had been dragged along with Xiao Shan, he felt uncomfortable all over.

”Originally, although I valued a mama's death, it wasn't the emperor's turn to personally investigate. Lian Ruyue must have deliberately stabbed him in the face.” ”If I'm the one in charge of Senior Servant Jin's death, then I'll just fool around. But since the emperor has come to adjudicate, I won't be able to interfere, and I can't fool around either. Besides, the brutality of her death is related to the safety of the palace, so the emperor won't underestimate it.”

”Lian Ruyue has exceeded my expectations.” Wei Ru thought that she was just a silly girl who was obsessed with the Eighth Prince. Who knew that she would be so powerful?

Feng Ye heard the two discuss Lian Meng Yue and couldn't help but furrow his brows. ”Mufei!”

At this moment, the palace maid hurried in with a face full of fear. ”Mother, esteemed wangfei, she's here?”

”Who?” it makes you so flustered. ”

”County Lord Rong He requests to see the Empress.” The palace maid said.

What? Xu Xianfei and Wei Ru stared blankly at the same time – Feng Ye's hand that was holding the teacup trembled –

What would a girl do?

”Aunt …”

”Let her in!” Xu Xianfei's expression turned cold as she said, ”I want to see what she can do!”

This was the Imperial Palace, and this was her Winter Palace. Lian Ruyue was just a small county governor; even if her father was the Prime Minister, what sort of waves could she cause?

Not long after, Lian Xiyue walked in with her servant girl by her side. Her face was expressionless, causing people's hearts to tremble when they saw her.
