C216 Her Tracks Were Exposed

"Chen'er..." Consort Long had just called out when she saw Yu Longchen's amiable smile.

"How about Consort Long come in? She looks a little thinner." Yu Longchen greeted her with concern. He looked like a completely different person compared to his previous cold look.

"Oh." Consort Long unconsciously touched her face, as if it was really as he had said, "Maybe it's because I haven't slept well recently."

"Consort Long must take good care of her body. Don't let Second Big Brother and I worry." Yu Longchen's current appearance was like a filial son. This change caught Consort Long off guard.

" You too. You have just recovered from a serious illness. It is not suitable for the wind to blow. Why don't you go to the main hall and have a seat? "Consort Long followed along and was about to bring Yu Longchen in.

Yu Longchen bowed respectfully and declined politely, "No need. The princess is still waiting for me at home. I will take my leave first."

"Yes." Long, it was not good to keep him. Thinking about the love between the two again, it wasn't a big deal.

Yu Longchen was only using this excuse to leave. He still had some matters to attend to in the Palace.

Consort Long rested for a while at Yu Longtang's place, then returned to her own palace.

Not long after, the Emperor came. Consort Long hurriedly greeted him. The Emperor laid on the bed and enjoyed Consort Long's massage.

After a while, his expression was questioning, but his eyes did not open. "What do you think of Prime Minister Mu's eldest son, Mu Jun? "

Consort Long's hands paused for a moment and then lightly hit the Emperor's back. "Chenqie has never seen him. I heard that he is brave and handsome and is a talent to be created. "

"En, Zhen also thinks the same. He has also reached the age of getting married." The Emperor turned his body and pulled Consort Long's hand and lightly patted twice, "Longyun has also reached the age of getting married."

..." " Consort Long gave a big smile and did not say anything.

The Emperor continued to throw himself onto the couch and let Consort Long massage his shoulders. Consort Long pinched and entered her mind. She only thought that if Yu Longyun and Mu Jun got married, it would be very bad for her son.

Yu Longzi already had the support of the Duke of Ling. If Mu Po came again, he was afraid that he would be like the sun in the sky in the court. It was only a matter of time before he became the heir. What did Yu Longtang need to compete for?

As he thought about it, the knot in his heart grew stronger. The Emperor frowned and did not blame her. He got up. Consort Long knew the courtesy and personally helped the Emperor put on his boots and tidied the Emperor's dragon robe. She said very respectfully, "Chenqie made a bowl of lotus soup. She added some medicinal ingredients to calm the mind. The Emperor will try it."

As she spoke, Consort Long pulled the Emperor to the side of the table. The Emperor took the jade bowl and ate it. He could not help but praise," It tastes sweet and fragrant. "

" It's good that the Emperor likes it. " Consort Long smiled gently like the spring breeze brushing against her face. It was just that she had already planned this in her heart.

The Emperor glanced at Consort Long without leaving a trace. He put down the jade bowl and rinsed his mouth. Don't just look and see a eunuch enter and say something to Gao Mao.

Gao Mao's expression changed. When he saw the Emperor looking at him, he lowered his head. The Emperor flung his sleeves and got up. "After resting for so long, it's time for Zhen to leave."

"Chenqie sends the Emperor off respectfully." Consort Long brought the people from the Palace and bowed. Once the Emperor left, her expression changed.

The Emperor walked out of Consort Long's courtyard and gave Gao Mao a look, "What is it?"

Gao Mao followed closely behind the Emperor and thought for a while before nodding his head and speaking leisurely, "Reporting to the Emperor, Princess Yun saw that Lord King Chu and the palace maids were having a private meeting and ran away crying. After being bumped by the little father-in-law, she came to inform this servant to report to the Emperor."

"Private meeting?" The Emperor stopped in his tracks, his face full of disbelief. He knew Yu Longchen's temper well, how could he have an affair with the palace maids? Suddenly thinking of something, he suppressed his anger.

Gao Mao's face darkened slightly, but he still had a smile on his face: "Maybe that palace maid offended the Royal Highness. Princess Yun saw it and thought of something else."

"Hmph." The Emperor did not agree with Gao Mao's version of the idea and quickened his pace. "Did you find out that the palace maid is from the concubines' palace?"

"This servant has already passed down the orders." Gao Mao answered respectfully and followed the Emperor.

"Send Princess Yun to see Zhen."

"Yes." Gao Mao waved his hand. The eunuch at the back understood and jogged down.

The Emperor saw Yun Xi in the side hall of the Imperial Reading Room.

Yun Xi's face was still alright, but her nose was a little red. It was obvious that she had cried before.

"May I know why the Emperor called Yun Xi over?" Yun Xi was well-mannered and was also a beauty which made people's heart ache a little.

"Where did you see King Chu? Who is that person beside him?" The Emperor was not polite, but his tone was a little low.

"Yun Xi does not know what that is called. She only remembers a small courtyard outside the Imperial Garden. There is a row of golden bamboos there." Yun Xi answered them one by one without hiding anything. She watched Yu Longchen enter Yu Longtang's palace. She waited for a long time not far away.

Seeing that Yu Longchen did not have time to follow, she saw Yu Longchen order Changxu to enter the small courtyard alone. After that, another palace maid looked left and right and walked in.

At that moment, Yun Xi felt wronged in her heart. She did not look good, her appearance was good, and she was also gentle. When she spoke to him, he was so cold to her. Now that she was having a private meeting with the palace maid, she felt wronged and tears fell out.

"Do you remember the appearance of that palace maid?"

Seeing the Emperor questioning her stance, Yun Xi was a little hesitant. The Royal Highness seeing the palace maid was not a big deal, why did the Emperor care so much? Would it harm Yu Longchen? Thinking about Yun Xi's ambiguous words, "Yun Xi is far away and the palace maids are walking with their heads lowered. She did not see clearly and only remembered that she was a little thin and thin, her height almost reaching Eunuch Gao's ears."

The Emperor did not ask her why she knew where Yu Longchen was. From the time she chased after Yu Longchen at Yu Longzi's palace gate, the Emperor clearly knew that this Princess Yun Meng had feelings for Yu Longchen.

"Yun Xi will retire." Yun Xi saw that the Emperor didn't ask any more questions and knew that it was time for her to leave. If you know the situation, please leave.

"Gao Mao." The Emperor saw Yun Xi leave and called Gao Mao to the front. He gave a few instructions and looked at the teacup on the table. He thought for a long time before returning to the Imperial Study.

The Emperor read the memorial and saw Gao Mao coming in from outside the door. He put down the memorial in his hand. "Have you checked it out?"

"Replying to the Emperor, that palace maid was originally from the royal palace and was later demoted to the service room." Gao Mao walked a few steps closer and paused for a while before lowering his head and saying, "That palace maid is Yun Lan's younger sister."

"Yun Lan?" The Emperor asked. It sounded familiar but he could not recall.

Gao Mao looked up a few times and wanted to say something. After all, Consort Lan's matter was taboo in the Emperor's place. It would be fine if the Emperor did not say much, but if he was questioned, he was afraid that he would be convicted.

"Speak." The Emperor looked at his appearance and there was anger in his eyes.

Gao Mao clasped his hands in front of his abdomen and knelt down before saying, "Yun Lan is the late Consort Lan Your Ladyship's palace maid."

When the Emperor heard the two words Consort Lan, his expression changed and his hands placed on the table making a sound. Gao Mao immediately kowtowed and apologized, "Please calm your anger, Emperor."

The Emperor pinched between his eyebrows and hid the anger in his eyes. His tone was still slightly angry, "Rise."

Only then did Gao Mao get up. He deeply experienced the feeling of accompanying a king like accompanying a tiger. He stood beside the Emperor again.

"Go, bring that palace maid over!" The Emperor looked at the memorial for a while and then heavily fell down.

Gao Mao bowed and said, "Yes."

The Emperor was no longer in the mood to read the memorial. He felt righteous in his heart, Yu Longchen. The expression on his face turned from anger to black. It was as if he was going to explode in the next second. The people in the study were all trembling with fear, afraid that the Emperor's anger would affect them. Innocent people had lost their lives.
