Chapter 157

"The empress is so arrogant, she actually asked the emperor to wait for you in person."

Seeing Yan Ruobing coming, Liu Yue'e was very unconvinced and taunted her, while Huangfu Ao was also sitting in the carriage, waiting for her.

"Back off! The emperor hasn't spoken yet, when is it your turn to speak?"

Yan Ruobing was in a rage at the moment, so she stared back at Liu Yue'e coldly.

Liu Yue'e was trembling with anger, but couldn't find anything to refute, so she could only back down with a sullen face, and then looked at Huangfu Ao with aggrieved eyes.

Huangfu Ao didn't know what happened, he looked at Yan Ruobing with an angry face inexplicably, and was about to ask what happened, when Yan Ruobing rushed to Yan Ruoyu, and asked in a cold tone: "Where did you hide Xiaotao?" where it goes?"

Yan Ruoyu didn't expect that Yan Ruobing would come to the door directly, pretending to be inexplicable and blinking, pretending to be innocent: "What is the empress talking about? Why can't the concubine understand anything?"

Seeing that Yan Ruoyu was still pretending, Yan Ruobing became even angrier, grabbed Yan Ruoyu's arm directly, and said, "You still pretend! Xiaotao is gone, and someone in the palace saw that it was yours who took her away. Do you still want me to drag the witness away?" In front of you?"

Hearing what Yan Ruobing said, Yan Ruoyu panicked immediately, and could only ask Huangfu Ao for help.

"Your Majesty, the Empress has wronged my concubine, the emperor must make the decision for my concubine!"

As Yan Ruoyu said, tears were streaming down her face, and Huangfu Ao just got out of the carriage and walked to Yan Ruobing's side.

"What the hell happened?"

Seeing Yan Ruoyu's innocent appearance, Yan Ruobing just sneered in her heart. Before she said anything, she was already wronging someone?

"Xiaotao is missing, but a court lady saw it and said that it was the maid next to Mrs. Yu who took Xiaotao away."

Yan Ruobing told the truth that she didn't believe that Yan Ruoyu was a good person, so when she learned that Yan Ruoyu took him away, she felt even more uneasy.

"Your Majesty Yu, tell me the truth! Have you ever seen Xiaotao, the court lady next to the queen?"

Huangfu Ao had a serious face, and his tone was a little harsh, which made Yan Ruoyu tremble all over in fright.

"I... my concubine... I have met Xiaotao, but my concubine did not hide her privately. I ask the emperor to check it out."

Yan Ruoyu looked very innocent, and it didn't look like she was lying.

Yan Ruobing wanted to ask something else, when she heard Xiaotao coming from behind, "Your Majesty, this servant is here..."

Hearing Xiao Tao's voice, Yan Ruobing turned around immediately, and saw Xiao Tao was limping towards her supported by two court ladies.

Obviously, Xiaotao's foot was injured, so it was very inconvenient to move.

Seeing that Xiaotao was fine, Yan Ruobing walked over nervously and asked, "Xiaotao, where have you been? How did it happen?"

Seeing Xiaotao, Yan Ruoyu also immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Huangfu arrogantly and aggrievedly: "Your Majesty, look, now the Emperor believes that the concubine has been wronged."

Huangfu Ao turned a deaf ear to Yan Ruoyu's words, but quietly waited for the result of Yan Ruobing's inquiry.

Xiaotao pouted aggrievedly, her big watery eyes filled with tears, and said guiltily, "Mother, I'm sorry, Xiaotao made you worry."

"It's okay, tell me what happened? If someone bullies you, I will definitely make the decision for you."

Yan Ruobing took Xiao Tao's hand and comforted her.

Xiaotao glanced at Yan Ruoyu, as if she had some scruples, she said very tactfully: "Mother, Xiaotao is fine, but sprained her foot on the way back, so she came back late."

Seeing Xiao Tao's flickering eyes, Yan Ruo Bing knew that Xiao Tao was lying.

However, she did not force her to ask, but suppressed all the doubts in her heart, "Since your foot is injured, you can rest in the palace to recuperate."

With Xiaotao's current state, she couldn't take her to Chaolu Temple, so she had to leave her alone in the palace.

Just when Yan Ruobing turned to leave, Xiao Tao suddenly shook off the hands of the two maids who were supporting her, and stepped forward quickly, as if about to fall.

Seeing this, Yan Ruobing immediately supported Xiaotao, but Xiaotao took advantage of this opportunity and whispered something in her ear: "Your Majesty, be careful all the way, and I'll talk about the details when you come back."

After Xiaotao finished speaking, she began to cover herself and began to cry: "My lady, I'm sorry, it's all the servant's fault. I made my mother worry, so I should punish my servant."

Yan Ruobing knew that Xiaotao had a secret in her heart, so she cooperated with the acting: "In this case, I will punish you not to step out of Fengqi Palace!"

After finishing speaking, Yan Ruobing and Huangfu Ao got into the carriage and set off.

Liu Yue'e and Yan Ruoyu were sitting in the pony carriage at the back, and the entire team was mighty with four to five hundred people.

After leaving the palace city, they entered the imperial city.

The news of the emperor's tour had already spread in the imperial city, so as soon as they entered the imperial city, there were guards on both sides of the street.

The common people were stopped three meters away and kowtowed to them.

Yan Ruobing was sitting in the carriage. Although she couldn't see the outside situation through the curtain of the carriage, she could guess from the lively and loud shouts that many people gathered outside to watch the excitement.

At this time, Huangfu Ao, who had been staying beside Yan Ruobing without saying a word, suddenly grabbed Yan Ruobing's hand on his knee and asked, "How is it? How do you feel?"

Apparently, Huangfu Ao was asking her how it feels to have such an unrivaled status and be supported by others.

Yan Ruobing was stunned for a moment, and replied very plainly: "The emperor is the heaven of the people, so he is naturally loved by the people. The courtiers and concubines are just in the honor of the emperor. If they take off the phoenix costume, what is the difference with them?"

Hearing Yan Ruobing's answer, Huangfu couldn't help but frowned, and said with certainty: "You are different from them, I will give you the best things in the world, even if you want my country, I will give you half of it." .”

Yan Ruobing's heart skipped a beat when she heard such swear words, and she looked at Huangfu Ao in disbelief.

"The emperor clearly knows that this is not what the concubine wants..."

Saying that, Yan Ruobing's tone softened, perhaps she still had his place in her heart.It's just that the identities of the two of them are not what she wants.

Huangfu Ao naturally understood what Yan Ruobing meant, and didn't force her, he could only sigh slightly.

The team drove out of the imperial city in a mighty way, and there were guards arranged in advance to guard the intersection along the way, so they came directly to Chaolu Temple smoothly.

Chaolu Temple is built on a small hillside, and there are thousands of stone stairs in front of the temple gate alone.

Looking at the white stone ladder leading directly to the top of the mountain, Yan Ruobing felt dizzy for a while, and secretly worried that if he walked up it, he would not be exhausted.
