"Master Wen, don't be too polite, please get up." Yuan Ruoyue's voice was as cold and indifferent as hers.

Wen Yu stood up, lowered her eyes, still not daring to meet Yuan Ruoyue's eyes, "Empress, this small official is bold, what do you need to ask me?"

Yuan Ruoyue waved her hand lightly, and the eunuchs and maids standing outside the gazebo automatically retreated two or three feet.

"Master Wen, please sit down first. You don't have to be so formal, please sit down first. I've always wanted to find time to have a good talk with you, but recently, a lot of things did happen, so it has been delayed until now."

Different from Concubine Xiao's tenderness and softness when she talked to herself at the beginning, Wen Yu couldn't hear any extra emotion from Yuan Ruyue's voice, Wen Yu was a little relieved.

Recently, she has really become a bit of a loser, Wen Yu sighed in her heart, now she doesn't know whether Concubine Xiao really has a crush on her or is she just making excuses to get her words out of her mouth.Fortunately, there are still more normal people in this world.

Wen Yu sat across from Yuan Ruoyue, and as soon as she sat down, Yuan Ruoyue on the opposite side let out a soft sigh, which frightened Wen Yu who was a little relaxed at first.

However, from the perspective of others, Wen Yu still has a calm complexion, indifferent calm, and calm eyes, and almost no one can see Wen Yu's true inner thoughts from the outside.

"Sir Wen should still remember me, right?" Yuan Ruoyue raised her eyes slightly, looking at Wen Yu with a little worry for some reason.

Wen Yu lowered her head respectfully, "I naturally remember the empress, I had a relationship with you once in front of the Yuan Mansion."

After Wen Yu said that without thinking, she realized that from the moment she met the empress to now, Yuan Ruoyue has always claimed to be me, not Ben Gong.

Yuan Ruoyue's brows moved slightly, and she quickly pursed her lips into a smile, but the smile was fleeting, "Since Mr. Wen still remembers me, then I'll just say it straight."

Yuan Ruoyue's tone was not brisk, but full of worry and heaviness. Wen Yu's expression became serious, thinking that she had something important to do, so she quickly listened attentively, putting aside the doubts just now,

"Wen Yu, I am very worried about you. Has Your Majesty treated you badly in any way, or touched you, that is, made strange movements towards you." Yuan Ruoyue stumbled a little when she said this, and she was not as fluent as before.nature.

So the empress's heavy tone just now was to tell herself this kind of thing.Um?Are all the girls in the harem this weird?

What's the problem? Is His Majesty treating her well? Did she do anything to herself? This is the first time she has heard such words. What strange things can His Majesty do to herself? Could it be that His Majesty reprimanded herself last time?Known by the empress.Wen Yu frowned slightly, no matter how she thought about it, she couldn't figure out why the Empress Empress would say such words suddenly.Or is it that the empress knows some secret of His Majesty, and this secret is still related to herself.

Wen Yu was troubled, her brows and eyes were slightly frowned, she shouldn't, these days she stayed by His Majesty's side almost every day, except that His Majesty didn't like to turn over the signs of the harem, everything else was normal.

That may be because the Empress knew that she and Xie Yu were classmates when they were young.If this is the case, then Wen Yu is not as worried as before, she is a little relaxed.

Yuan Ruoyue observed Wen Yu's expression, and saw the tangled look in her expression, Yuan Ruoyue thought she had guessed right, and then sighed again.

Then Yuan Ruoyue said: "Wen Yu, if you don't want to, I will help you."

Wait, what the hell is the empress talking about?Why did she become more and more confused the more she listened.Didn't the Empress know that she and His Majesty were classmates when she was young?

Wen Yu stood up in panic, and said respectfully: "Empress, this small official is too stupid, I really don't understand what you mean, Empress, I hope you will make amends."

After Wen Yu's words came out, although Yuan Ruoyue still had a cold expression, she looked at Wen Yu more and more sadly.

"Wen Yu, you don't have to be so afraid. As I said, I will help you."

Wen Yu felt that she might be in a dream, otherwise, why would she say such words that she couldn't understand, and couldn't understand at all.

"Wen Yu, you don't have to be like this anymore. As a queen, I will not feel jealous because of this matter, nor will I blame you for it."

She could understand every single word, and it seemed like she was listening to a scripture when they were connected together. Wen Yu took a deep breath, but her voice trembled for no reason, "Empress Empress, maybe this small official is really too stupid, this small official is really incomprehensible."

Empress, why don't we open the skylight and talk about lighting, she really doesn't understand at all.

Seeing Wen Yu's resistant expression, Yuan Ruoyue pursed her lips in silence, and finally said: "Wen Yu, is Your Majesty forcing you to be a sycophant, just like Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty and Deng Tong?"

It was obviously a question, but Yuan Ruoyue said it firmly as if it was the truth.

Ning Xing, male favorite, where did the Empress see these traces.Rather than saying that His Majesty has such thoughts about himself, it is better to say that His Majesty wants to destroy himself.

"Empress, this small official, although I don't know where you got this conclusion, but this small official can guarantee with your life, there is absolutely no such thing. Empress, you don't have to worry."

Wen Yu's brows regained their calmness again, but there was a little anger in his tone: "If Empress Empress has nothing else to do, then this small official will leave first."

Wen Yu felt that she was a fool when she was serious just now, why did Yuan Ruoyue catch up on things that didn't exist at all.No matter what your gender is, do you attribute your promotion to your official career as a favor of His Majesty, and then deny it completely?

Yuan Ruoyue frowned, because His Majesty hadn't done anything yet.

"Wen Yu, you are a first-class prospect, and you have made such achievements in the small county of Yi Xin. You have great ambitions. Are you willing to be locked up in the imperial city and be a living man?"

Yuan Ruoyue's words just now did not mean what she thought, Wen Yu naturally didn't want to stay in the palace, and she was worried every day for fear that if she was not careful, she would die in Jiuquan.However, the queen empress is not related to him, so why help him.

Yuan Ruoyue looked at Wen Yu, as if she was considering whether to say anything, her eyes froze, even though her expression was still calm, but her momentum was different, "Master Wen, as a queen, I am in charge of Fengyin, so naturally I have the right to superviseThe order in the entire palace. Your Majesty's approach is unorthodox, and this palace will naturally spare no effort to maintain the harem regulations."

is that so?Wen Yu lowered her eyes to cover the sharpness in her gaze, and said, "This small official dares to ask the Empress a question. Why do you think His Majesty has such thoughts about this small official?"

Wen Yu's eyes were not the tenderness she had expected in her dream, but vigilance and suspicion.Yuan Ruoyue felt for a moment that she was a clown, a joke.

But she really didn't want, she didn't want the boy in white in her dream to be tarnished by the deep palace, and she didn't want Wen Yu to be trapped in the shackles of the imperial city.

How did she find out, she may have found out a long time ago, she just didn't want to admit it.

Yuan Ruoyue thought that His Majesty's true love for Xiao Peiwan was her true love, but that day, when she asked His Majesty about Xiao Peiwan's funeral, there was no guard outside the door for some reason, and there was no eunuch to inform her.

Although Yuan Ruoyue was puzzled, she still walked into the hall, and then she saw His Majesty staring fascinatedly at Wen Yu who was recording the document.

The imperial study room is very quiet, only the pen and ink are fragrant.The warm and even scorching sun enveloped Yuan Ruoyue's body, but she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave.

At that time, she thought it was just her own illusion, until she was about to step into the room, but Xie Yu suddenly raised her head and stared at her with a completely different cold gaze, forcing her to retreat.

Yuan Ruoyue didn't know what expression she had on her face at that time, but it must have been ugly. She and Xie Yu walked out of the hall, and Yuan Ruoyue finally asked the question after she finished asking her why she came.

"Your Majesty, I want to ask why I didn't let my concubine into the house just now?" Didn't he want to disturb the young man who was writing a book?Yuan Ruoyue felt that something was wrong with her voice, her hands in her sleeves were tightly clenched together, she couldn't even tell why she was angry.

Xie Yu's footsteps paused, and he looked down at Yuan Ruoyue calmly, his voice without a trace of warmth: "Queen, isn't it obvious that I am acting, just do what you are supposed to do."

"What do you mean, Your Majesty? As a queen, can I not compare to a small householder?" Yuan Ruoyue grabbed Xie Yu's dragon robe, and pressed him a little bit.

"I have other matters. If the empress has no other questions, then go back to the palace." Xie Yu exerted a slight force on his wrist, forcing Yuan Ruoyue to let go of his hand painfully.

After she returned to the palace, she ordered her servants to investigate.Only then did she know that the treatment of the previous living man was completely different from that of Wen Yu. He had no independent courtyard and no residence close to His Majesty. He lived with other officials such as the living servants in the house prepared for them by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.He was even asked by His Majesty not to follow him unless necessary.

Yuan Ruoyue's eyes turned cold, "Master Wen, maybe I made a mistake and hastily delayed you for so long, but I should apologize to you. If so, I won't keep you any longer."

After finishing speaking, Yuan Ruoyue got up and left, her clothes fluttering, leaving Wenzhen standing in the pavilion, a little at a loss.

Why did the queen's attitude change in a blink of an eye, and she still hasn't recovered from the question she just asked.

Wen Yu rubbed her temples, feeling the pain there, she didn't plan to stay here for a long time, so she walked back to the residence with big strides.

At this moment, the sky has not yet completely darkened, and a faint red light can still be seen in the west.

After dinner, the moon had already hung on the branches, Wen Yu had just arrived at the main hall of Hanliang Palace, when she was stopped by the eunuch Zhao Xi who was beside Xie Yu.

Zhao Xi told Wen Yu that His Majesty was not here, but in a garden pavilion outside Hanliang Hall, and told Wen Yu to go there.

Wen Yu took the paper lantern from Zhao Xi's hand and walked towards the depths of the palace in the dark.

Xie Yu was sitting on the stone chair at the moment, under the night, Xie Yu's place was the only spot of light in the depths of the apse.Wen Yu walked along the light, she put the lantern on the ground, and was about to salute, but was stopped by Xie Yu.

"Wen Yu, sit beside me."

Wen Yu didn't know why the alarm sounded loudly, and in the evening Yuan Ruoyue's words sounded like a curse in his ears over and over again.

Don't think too much, don't be too narcissistic, how can so many people think of you, she is not the heartthrob in the novel, this is reality.It's just that Xie Yu's pressure on her last time was so heavy that now as long as Wen Yu is with him, she doesn't dare to take it lightly.

The night is the best protective umbrella, it covers the cautiousness in Wen Yu's eyes and the inquiry in Xie Yu's eyes.

Xie Yu looked at Wen Yu up and down with a scrutinizing gaze, his deep eyes became deeper and deeper in the dark night, and the light leaking out of them was unpredictable.

"Liang, I heard that you and the empress had a great conversation in the gazebo today."

"this small official——"

Xie Yu seemed to chuckle, and his voice drifted into Wen Yu's ears, "I don't want to blame you, I still know a little about the Queen's character, she is a standard noble lady, and she will not do anything that violates her status.”

"I'm just curious, what did you talk about between the queen and Aiqing?"

Wen Yu couldn't hear Xie Yu's other emotions. The tone of his speech made Wen Yu think that the two were talking about today's weather, as if it was an insignificant matter.

But Wen Yu knew that this was just his own illusion, Xie Yu's words must have his intentions.Moreover, if she really dared to say what the empress had talked about with herself, she would be treasonous and seek her own death.

Wen Yu cupped her hands and lowered her eyes, "What the empress and this small official are talking about is Your Majesty, and the Empress is very concerned about Your Majesty."

Avoid the important and take the light, you don't intend to answer me at all.Xie Yu jokingly watched Wen Yu clumsily making up lies, but even if she didn't tell them, I could still guess what the queen would say to my living man.

Otherwise, why did he specifically order the attendants outside the imperial study room to leave, to give the queen a chance to spy on her.Xie Yu looked at Wen Yu in the dark, and was suddenly in a trance. Yes, after Xiao Jia's death, he couldn't find the truth of the original incident no matter what.

Wen Yu lowered her eyes and her eyelashes trembled violently. Why did His Majesty remain silent all this time?

Xie Yu stretched out his hand to lightly touch Wen Yu's shoulder, and then his movements suddenly became ambiguous.Wen Yu was so frightened that he didn't dare to take a breath.

After observing Wen Yu for such a long time, the corner of Xie Yu's lips curled into a slight arc, and it was time for the fish to catch the net.
