Chapter 346 Confusing Punishment

Concubine Lin's touching words made Mo Chen have a plan in mind, and the next day he also wore a dragon robe and boarded the dragon throne.

It had been a long time since he last went to court, and the ministers were very sad to see him going to court despite being sick.

"The holy Lord is in poor health and went to court despite being ill. This really makes me and other veterans admire him."

Mo Chen raised his hand. He had heard such compliments so many times that he didn't feel much about them anymore.

Mo Yunzheng raised his eyes and looked at the people on the throne, then stood in the center of the hall with Chao Fu in his hand.

"Your Majesty, please ask His Majesty for your Holy Judgment regarding Concubine Lin."

He opened his mouth, and the ministers on his side immediately agreed that Concubine Lin's murder of His Majesty was a serious crime.

Mo Chen's face darkened a bit. He thought for a moment and spoke slowly: "I already know this in my heart. Concubine Lin has petitioned me to go to the temple outside the palace to pray for the country, and I have given my permission."

As soon as this decision came out, many people were worried. This punishment was too light.

Since Concubine Lin can take action against the Holy Lord, it can be seen how ambitious she is. However, the Holy Lord sentenced her so lightly that she could not suppress the public's opinions.

"Your Majesty, please think twice." Mo Yunzheng still insisted on his opinion. This matter should have been severely punished.

Mo Chen waved his hand. He had already made up his mind on this matter. No one could change it rashly. He must protect Concubine Lin.

The court meeting came to an end with Mo Chen coughing. He really didn't want to continue listening to them.

All of them just wanted to punish Concubine Lin severely, but how could he not understand the temperament of the person next to him?

Returning to the East Palace with a sense of disappointment, Mo Yunzheng stayed in the study and never came out. It was not until the sky darkened that Ye Xuwan appeared in the courtyard worriedly.

"Your Highness, can you use dinner?" She looked at the maid serving outside the door. She had not seen him all day, and she was inevitably a little worried.

She had also heard about what happened to the court, but she couldn't say anything more. After all, it was His Majesty's decision, and he was also His Majesty's son.

If she talks too much, she will inevitably be accused of instigating the relationship between father and son, and may also be accused of interfering in politics.

"Your Highness has not eaten, and during this period he has not even changed the tea in the room." The palace maid replied in a straight-forward manner, forgetting not to eat, and not even drinking water, what on earth is he doing.

Ye Xuwan frowned, and then went to the small kitchen in the East Palace to cook a bowl of soup and bring it to her.

She raised her hand and gently opened the door, and saw a decadent person in front of the desk.

She put the things down, then walked behind him and squeezed his shoulders.

"What's wrong?" Mo Yunzheng didn't say anything when he saw her coming in. He raised his hand and pinched her hand in his palm.

He was upset, but he also knew that he couldn't bring such emotions to her. After all, he wanted her to be worry-free in the East Palace.

"What's wrong, Your Highness?" Ye Xuwan said slowly. She rarely spoke to him so gently.

After working as a eunuch in this palace for a period of time, she regained her female form and spoke somewhat like a man.

Mo Yunzheng sighed and shook his head, "It's okay." He had long known that his father would favor Concubine Lin again and again, but he never expected that he would be so partial.

Even if the other party harms his life, he will try his best to save it.

Going to the temple to pray is not a punishment. It won't be long before she returns to this palace again. What's more, Concubine Lin has great influence in this palace. A short period of absence from the palace cannot shake her foundation at all.

During the years of her plan with Mo Qingsong, many chess pieces had been laid in the harem of the previous dynasty. "Yunzheng, Your Majesty is also confused." Ye Xuwan held back a lot of things to say, but she still only said these few words.

The Holy Emperor was confused, but he was able to come up with such a way. Even if he was not confused, he could tolerate the person who harmed his life and continue to stay in this palace.

Mo Yunzheng smiled forcefully, then opened the box on the side, and a refreshing fragrance slowly wafted in.

"Try it, I made it myself." Ye Xuwan raised her head slightly. She rarely cooks, and this can be considered her debut here.

This bowl of clear noodle soup has extremely high nutritional value, and it is filled with my feelings for Mo Yunzheng.

Mo Yunzheng picked up the noodles and took a bite. His expression immediately changed, sometimes getting better and sometimes getting worse.

"How's it going? Isn't it delicious?" There was worry on her face. This face was made by herself with great care. Could it be that his expression meant that this was really unpalatable?
Mo Yunzheng lowered his head and spit out the eggshells in his face, with a little helplessness in his eyes.

"Wan'er, I know you tried your best." This side is very bland, but there is still such material in it.

The corner of Ye Xuwan's mouth twitched, and then she lowered her head and glanced at the eggs inside the noodles. She was obviously very careful at that time, but she didn't expect that something would slip through the net.

"If it doesn't taste good, don't eat it. I'll take you to eat somewhere else." Ye Xuwan pushed the bowl aside. This debut was obviously a failure.

Mo Yunzheng was confused. Apart from the Imperial Dining Hall, where else could there be food in the palace.

Besides, he doesn't have much appetite to begin with. If he was hungry, he would have passed on the food.

But he still couldn't resist her pull, so he had to follow her.

The sky was getting dark, and there were fewer people walking on the palace roads. Even eunuchs and palace maids were rarely seen.

Ye Xuwan's status made it difficult for her to walk freely in the palace, so she had no choice but to hide behind Mo Yunzheng. He would go wherever she told him to go.

"Who?"

The patrolling royal guards immediately became vigilant when they heard the movement in the garden. At this time, they were still hiding in the palace garden. Could it be an assassin?

Thinking of this, the leader of the Royal Forest Army immediately pulled out the sword in his hand. Ye Xuwan became anxious and pushed Mo Yunzheng out.

"His Royal Highness?"

Mo Yunzheng looked helpless and nodded towards the imperial guard. It was indeed inappropriate for him to appear here at this time.

"Come out and look at the moonlight." Then he raised his head and glanced at the full moon in the sky. At this time, he couldn't make up any other reasons.

"His Royal Highness the prince's expression is so elegant and cheerful. It's really impressive." After flattering him for a while, the imperial guards turned around and left.

Seeing that everyone was gone, Ye Xuwan walked out from behind the rockery. She was almost discovered, but luckily Mo Yunzheng was there.

"Wan'er, there will be a curfew in the palace soon. If you run around again, you will be punished." Mo Yunzheng was a little helpless. He still had to find something to eat after this time.

Ye Xuwan raised her lips, she just wanted to take him out during the curfew.

The two came to the south gate. Ye Xuwan looked at the defender at the door, "Wan'er, it's not appropriate to leave the palace late at night, not to mention you are still unmarried."

Even if he is the prince, if he leaves the palace at this moment, he will definitely be reprimanded by his father tomorrow.

"Don't be afraid, I have a solution."
