Tuoba's eyes opened wide, and then they darkened, "I still can't. It's so early in the morning and he's really dead. His mood won't be any better after watching all day."

When could the palace not be so bloody!

"Master, I'll go see the Emperor!" Tuoba said in a low voice as he looked back at the hand he had grabbed her by the collar.

Ji Lanye frowned, "Let's stop here for today's practice and accompany Master back to Little Qiao for breakfast."

Then he took her hand and walked quickly back.

Tuoba Yu was the emperor and always accompanied by Southern Jue, Zhen Lin, and the Rui King. Yet, at this moment, he was standing alone on the bridge, meaning that he didn't want to be disturbed by others.

"But Master …" "Eh …" "Master …" Tuoba's eyes stared at the emperor on the bridge. His lonely back made her nose sour for some reason.

She wanted to say, "Teacher, breakfast can actually be eaten later!"

After the two of them left, Tuoba Yu turned around and looked in the direction the two of them left. His phoenix eyes were as deep as the sea.

On the other side of the bridge, Zhen Feng was holding a rolled up handkerchief in his hand as he looked at Emperor Yu's face with hesitation. He didn't know whether he should hand it over or not.

Nan Jue also narrowed his eyes. If this item was handed over, it would probably cause "the world" to fall into chaos.

Tuoba Rui's face was still pale and his starry eyes shone with a hint of coldness. He pursed his lips and did not say a word.

Perhaps it was because Tuoba Yu felt that the others wanted to say something, but he stopped and turned his head over. The corner of his mouth habitually lifted slightly, but his eyebrows had a hint of helplessness. "Just say what you want to say!"

Zhen Liu gritted his teeth and walked over, then handed the rolled handkerchief in his hands over to him.

Tuoba Yu raised his eyebrows and waved his long finger. The purple rolled handkerchief was spread out in his palm, and a faint orchid was imprinted into the bottom right corner of the rolled handkerchief. However, the rolled handkerchief did not have a single word, and was completely blank.

Only the orchid was exceptionally beautiful and eye-catching.

His big hand clenched into a fist, and his handsome face darkened. The handkerchief in his hand crumbled and wrinkled, and the orchid seemed to die under his big hand.

"Return to the Yu Xiu Palace!" As he spoke, the purple handkerchief fell from his fingertips to the bottom of the bridge.

The wind blew the handkerchief away, and the orchid seemed to leap out, quivering, like a pair of familiar eyes from a melancholy memory. However, it would never be able to look back and suddenly return.

After the news of Shen Zhiqiao, who had stayed in the Dragon's Nest for several days, was' driven out 'by Tuoba Yu, it took less than an hour for it to spread throughout the entire palace. Almost every corner of the palace was filled with discussions.

All of the concubines used various reasons to go to the Soul Orchid Palace and investigate. However, when they saw the group heading south outside the Soul Orchid Palace, they all went back disappointed.

Hua Cui Palace.

Imperial Concubine Hua was still as heavily dressed and elegant as ever. She gave the concubines who had appeared in her Hua Cui Palace an indifferent glance, then closed her eyes and leaned back in her chair with her hands under her warm sleeves. She allowed the palace maids to carefully massage her without saying a word.

Everyone knew that Imperial Concubine Hua had once suffered a big loss at the hands of that girl. Now that the emperor had driven her out of the Dragon's Nest and given her the right to live in the Soul Orchid Palace, logically speaking, Imperial Concubine Hua should have long since lost control and ran off to demonstrate her might.

However, her expression didn't change at all and she didn't take any action. This was completely unlike Imperial Concubine Hua's usual personality. It was truly a bit unimaginable!

"Huifei, has the emperor sought you out for a game of chess recently?" Her voice was hoarse and full of fatigue.

Esteemed wangfei's face changed slightly as she heard this, maintaining a decent and generous smile. "Your majesty has been busy with many affairs of state. It's been almost two months since I've been to chenqinggong's Feng Qinggong."

The moment her words left her mouth, the other imperial concubines looked at her either in sympathy or in schadenfreude.

Today, she was dressed in simple yet elegant clothing, and her figure was gradually becoming thinner. Her pear white silk dress was blooming with beautiful hibiscus flowers, but no one could ignore her haggard and aged appearance.

Imperial Consort Hui, the eldest daughter of the protector general Jia Zhen, Jia Qinglian, was twenty years old. She became the first concubine of the current dynasty's emperor as someone of noble status, and seven years had passed since then.

It was said that the reason Jia Qing Lian was able to enter the palace and become the first woman to become the young Emperor was because she was protected by Tuoba Lan, the second princess of the imperial court.

It was said that the little Emperor, because of his mother's early death, had found a long-missed maternal love in her. As soon as the little Emperor found time, he would run to her palace, and Jia Qinglian was promoted to the position of fourth concubine in the second year after entering the palace.

However, since three years ago, the little emperor seemed to have forgotten about this whimsical concubine, and the number of visits she made became fewer and fewer. For example, this time, the little emperor had not been to Feng Qing Palace for two months, but the truth was that this was not the case.

As for the time that the little Emperor didn't go to the Witch Consort Palace, everyone could no longer remember. Perhaps it was half a year ago, or perhaps it was a year ago, or perhaps it was … Three years ago!

Imperial Concubine Hua gave a light grunt as she slowly opened her eyes, sweeping over the concubines with a cold gaze as she sneered, "I am well aware of what your hearts are at peace with each other. I'm telling you, do not play any tricks in front of me, or don't blame me for playing some tricks on you! "

Pausing for a moment, he shouted, "If there's nothing else, then disperse them for me. Just the scent of rouge that plugs into my Hua Cui Palace is so strong that it makes me want to puke. Don't you know that my nose can't smell this?

All of the concubines lowered their heads, mentally berating Imperial Concubine Hua. However, they were all smiling respectfully, not daring to say a single word. They all stood up from their seats, blessed themselves, and left.

At the end, Imperial Concubine Huai frowned as she looked at Imperial Concubine Hua. She felt that she had asked her something today.

Ye Zichen shook his head and walked out doubtfully.

After all the concubines had left, Imperial Concubine Hua spoke to the palace maid behind her who had been massaging her. "Call Eunuch Li in."

The palace maid responded, then walked out.

Imperial Concubine Hua's eyes narrowed as she looked at the door to the hall, a cold expression slowly emerging on her face.

Those concubines were truly crafty. She knew that the Emperor told the woman to move out of the Dragon's Nest Palace before he had anyone investigate her in the morning.

Even though the emperor arranged for that woman to stay in the Black Phoenix Palace, he didn't send her back to the empress dowager's side. What was his purpose?!

Who in the palace didn't know that Xiang Nan was the empress dowager's favorite person? If one of them went to the Soul Orchid Palace to cause trouble, the empress dowager would know about it.

Even though the empress dowager was old, she was still an important figure. Even though she had been in the harem for so many years, she still feared the empress dowager.

After all, it was all thanks to her, the empress dowager, that the emperor could successfully succeed the throne. She could not deny that she could not afford to offend the empress dowager.

When the concubines saw that she was attending to the south, they all ran to her palace. Wasn't her goal to use her to get rid of that woman? The abacus really worked.

At this moment, Eunuch Li walked in from outside. He looked a bit old, but he was still full of vigor. "Your servant greets the imperial concubine …" As he spoke, he prepared to kneel down.

Imperial Concubine Hua frowned and waved her hand. "That's enough, don't kneel!"

"Thank you, esteemed imperial concubine." Eunuch Li hurriedly stood up straight, but kept his head bowed.

"How is everything going?!" Imperial Concubine Hua raised her slender hand in front of her face and looked at him with the corner of her eyes, as if she was speaking in a casual manner.

When Eunuch Li heard this, he immediately smiled obsequiously. "Empress, don't worry. Everything has been prepared. As long as esteemed wangfei commands, we can …" The chopping hand made a "kill" gesture.

Imperial Concubine Hua's eyes were filled with murderous intent as she turned to look at him, "This matter must be done to the point where there must be no mistakes. Do you understand?"

"Yes, yes, Imperial Concubine!"

"Go down!" Imperial Concubine Hua closed her eyes and waved her hand.

"Yes sir!" Eunuch Li glanced at her before bowing and retreating out of the hall.

However, just as she was about to step out, she was called back.

Eunuch Li immediately lowered his head and listened.

"Eunuch Li, please give me a reason. I'm not feeling well, and I want to kill someone." When Imperial Concubine Hua said these words, it was as if she was talking about what to eat at night. She seemed very ordinary.

Eunuch Li was startled as his expression changed slightly. "Who does esteemed imperial concubine want to kill?"

"Beauty Zheng …"
