Since Concubine Han was given to death and He Cairen had a miscarriage, Tian Shuhui was in panic all day long. Lin Youyi excused her from paying her respects, and Tian Shuhui didn't go out again, but she was not in good spirits.

"Luzhu, the Empress is doing it for my own good, I should listen..." Tian Shuhui murmured.

Luzhu understood that Tian Shuhui remembered the empress's special mention that day, and the two of them didn't take it seriously at that time, thinking about following fate, but not wanting the harem battle to be so cruel.

"It's useless to think too much, the empress wants to be more open, the prince is in a good mood." Luzhu comforted.

"I don't have the confidence to protect him and give birth safely." Since Tian Shuhui became pregnant, she has been worried about gains and losses. Maybe she cared too much, but she was restless.

As soon as the words were finished, the palace maid came in and announced, "Your Majesty, Aunt Yingyue is asking to see you."

Luzhu frowned, Aunt Yingyue would comfort people, and with her relief, Master might be in a better mood.

Yingyue came in, saluted and said, "I've seen Mrs. Tian Pin."

Yingyue is a member of her aunt Tian Taifei, and she watched Tian Shuhui grow up since she was a child. Tian Shuhui cheered up, "Don't be so polite, aunt. I am very grateful that you come to see me every day."

"Your Majesty, this is the early stage of pregnancy, and she is prone to sentimentality. It will be fine when she gets older." Yingyue said.

On this day, a major event happened in the previous dynasty. Wang Rongqin, Minister of the Ministry of Industry who led the team to Jiao County, successfully completed the task of water control, properly resettled the affected people, and returned with praise.

His Majesty Longyan was delighted and asked Wang Rongqin, "What reward does Aiqing want?"

Wang Rongqin replied: "I only have one daughter, and she was punished for colliding with the Queen Mother a few days ago. Please have mercy on your Majesty and forgive my daughter's crimes."

Your Majesty grants!

When the news reached the Palace of Compassion, the Empress Dowager frowned. Naturally, the Empress Dowager knew that Wang Shuyan's assault on her was fake, and that she committed suicide was true. However, since Her Majesty was getting married at that time, it was not easy to punish her, so she found someone with hair to match the cold palace.

Now people have this excuse, His Majesty didn't know the reason, and he didn't want to cool the heart of the hero, so he let him out.

But it doesn't matter if it's a woman, the Queen Mother didn't say anything.

Yingge, Ping'er and others in Kunning Palace all knew about Wang Shuyan and Lin Youyi's festivities, so they were more worried, "Ma'am, when that one comes out, I don't know how to deal with you, we have to guard against it."

Zhixia pulled her hair for Lin Youyi, looked at her snow-like face in the mirror, and said with a smile: "Sister Ping'er, I'm afraid it's Wang Cainu who is afraid of our empress."

"It's clear, we don't need to worry, we are afraid that she will play tricks." Yingge has known Wang Shuyan for many years. If Lin Youyi's falling into the water hadn't been exposed, she would never have thought that there would be such a gentle girl under her gentle and pleasant appearance. Hidden with a heart like a snake and a scorpion, it doesn't count if you make a move in the eldest princess's mansion, but after entering the palace, you have to put the girl to death.

"Based on Miss Biao's temperament, she must have lost her sense of propriety when she was forced into a hurry by the Empress when she was in the Xiu Palace. I'm afraid she will be more cautious now that she has been left in the cold." Yingge analyzed.

Lin Youyi smiled gently. The people around her were really thinking of her, and she felt warm, "I have to guard against it, but don't worry too much. She Wang Shuyan is amazing, and you girls are not bad either."

Yingge and the others grinned when they heard this. Ping'er and Yingge are two first-class court ladies beside Lin Youyi. Keep an eye on it, if there is any movement, we will know."

Lin Youyi nodded.

After Ping'er left, Lin Youyi thought for a while, and asked Yingge, "Is the cake for Your Majesty ready?"

"I made it according to the time. Your Majesty should have just come down to court right now, and the cakes should still be hot when delivered." Yingge said.

"You take the pastries and go with Ben Gong." Lin Youyi said.

Yingge laughed and said, "Your Majesty should go to the Xuanzheng Hall more often. Your Majesty is glad to see you go."

"What?" Lin Youyi looked over in surprise.

Yingge said, "Your Majesty will always reward you with something when you go to Xuanzheng Hall once."

Lin Youyi chuckled, "It sounds like I'm here to ask for a reward."

"Then what are you going to do?" Lin Youyi seldom goes there.

"Of course it is to give Wang Shuyan eye drops." Lin Youyi smiled.

Xuanzheng Hall, Li Duanjin heard that Lin Youyi was coming, and asked An Duo to lead him to the Nuan Pavilion to rest. He quickly read the memorial in his hand, then got up and went to the Nuan Pavilion.

"What did the queen do for me?" Since Lin Youyi tried his best to explain away Li Duanjin with the piano and flute ensemble last time, Li Duanjin's attitude towards Lin Youyi seemed to have returned to the time before the wedding.

Lin Youyi cherished Li Duanjin's change very much, so she said directly, "Your Majesty, don't you want my concubine to lie to you? The concubine is not here today just to deliver snacks, but for Wang Cainu."

Li Duanjin paused, and at the court, he agreed to Wang Rongqin as soon as he was happy about the Jiao County incident, only to realize afterwards that Lin Youyi might not like it.

Li Duanjin curled his lips slightly. This was a bet for drinking that day, but it's not that he didn't know who won and who won. It's hard for her to take it to heart. Li Duanjin only felt a little hot in his heart, and looked at Lin Youyi eagerly, "Queen Don't be in a hurry, I can't refuse Wang Aiqing, but I have a sense of proportion."

Lin Youyi didn't know what Li Duanjin was talking about, so she weighed her words and said, "Your Majesty knows that Wang Shuyan and I have a life-and-death enmity, and it is impossible to live in harmony. This concubine understands your majesty's difficulties, and I only hope that your majesty promise one thing."

"What's the matter?" Li Duanjin met Lin Youyi's eyes seriously. This was the first time Lin Youyi asked him for a request, but with the shadow of the wedding night, Li Duanjin was really a little afraid of her cautious look.

"There are many beauties in Your Majesty's harem, all of whom can give birth to an heir for His Majesty, but Wang Cai's daughter is the only one, and my concubine hopes...she doesn't want a mother to be expensive based on a child." Lin Youyi still replaced the phrase "The emperor's heir should not come from her womb" in her heart. "Mother is more expensive than child".

As a queen, interfering with your majesty's heirs is a great arrogance or even treason. If it gets to the ears of the queen mother, it is impossible to say that she will abolish her.

In fact, the meanings of the two are similar, but the latter can only reflect the jealousy of the queen at best.

With Li Duanjin's intelligence, he naturally understood the meaning behind Lin Youyi's words. With piercing eyes, he said, "The empress once said, 'Wives are jealous, angry, and quarrelsome, but empresses are not.' What did the empress mean just now?"

These are the exact words Lin Youyi said when she begged Li Duanjin to give her soup for her son on the night of her wedding. Unexpectedly, Li Duanjin remembered it verbatim. Lin Youyi scoffed inwardly, "What a stingy man." Answered obediently, "Based on the past of the concubine and Wang Cainu, everyone would be angry."

He didn't associate his request with the queen's position at all, so he didn't give Li Duanjin any excuses and reasons to tease himself.

Here it is again, the stubborn and arrogant appearance of this little clam shell made Li Duanjin couldn't help laughing, to cover it up, he clenched his fist and coughed weakly, "Well, I got it."

Lin Youyi only felt that the atmosphere between the two of them was suddenly a little strange. They were clearly discussing things seriously, but why was Li Duanjin smiling? What joke did she tell?
