Chapter 56: Awkward situation!
The old emperor sighed, "It's not that easy. Last time, we just killed some eunuchs and palace maids. It's so difficult to find out who is behind this!"
In fact, everyone knows who did it, but there is no evidence.
Of course, the most embarrassed person at this time was Hu Shanxiang.
"Your Majesty, you scared me to death!"
"Let Youyue make medicine . Others are really worried!"
The old emperor nodded expressionlessly.
"If you can investigate this, then investigate it. If you can't, then forget about it. After all, you have a lot of other things to deal with right now. There's no need to waste your time on this."
Hearing this, his eyes were fixed on Hu Shanxiang. He was suspicious. After all, even if Hu Zhenghe wanted to reach out to the palace, it would still be very difficult.
But this imperial concubine is different. She has been cultivating her own power in the palace over the years.
Of course, things are not absolute, and Xiao Yan was just suspicious.
But judging from what happened today, Hu Shanxiang is on his side!
No matter what, Xiao Yan did not let down his guard against Hu Shanxiang.
"Yes, I understand!"
"Alright, all of you can leave now. The Imperial Concubine can stay here to accompany me. Let the imperial doctors outside go back and don't embarrass them."
"After all, it was they who saved my life before, otherwise I wouldn't have had the chance to be treated by Miss Youyue!"
Xiao Yan just felt that the old emperor was too soft-hearted. The crime of murdering the emperor was actually a very serious one. No matter what, a group of people would definitely be killed!
Otherwise how can it have a deterrent effect?
"Yes, I obey your order!"
"I will take my leave first, Father, please have a rest!"
As he said this, he helped the weak Ye Youyue out of the bedroom.
"Why are you still kneeling here? Are you really waiting for me to chop you down?"
"I will let you off this time, but if you continue to be so lazy and don't know how to improve your medical skills, I won't let you off so easily next time."
"Get lost!"
Upon hearing this, the imperial doctors breathed a sigh of relief, finally saving a life!
"I will take my leave now!"
Then Xiao Yan helped Ye Youyue back to the East Palace.
"How are you? Are you okay?"
Looking at the weak Ye Youyue, Xiao Yan felt a little distressed.
"I am fine, Your Highness, please be at ease!"
Ye Youyue was indeed extremely exhausted. In order to return home as soon as possible, she worked day and night. In fact, she had not had any rest in the past few days.
As soon as he came back, Xiao Yan dragged him to the emperor's bedroom for emergency treatment. It would be strange if he was not exhausted after all this trouble.
"Take a rest first. I'll arrange for someone to get you some food!"
Ye Youyue was really hungry, otherwise she wouldn't be so exhausted.
Only after Xiao Yan left did Ye Youyue look around Xiao Yan's room.
I haven't been here for several days, but the room is still in great order.
After sitting on the bed, Ye Youyue reached out and pulled the pillow towards her, wanting to lie down.
But as the pillow moved, something white was revealed.
She was still quite confused because when she was cleaning the house, she didn't notice that Xiao Yan had the habit of hiding dirty clothes.
She picked up the thing gently and blushed immediately.
This is clearly a pair of women's trousers.
Just at this moment, Xiao Yan looked out from the door and saw Ye Youyue holding the trousers and looking at her with a red face!
The atmosphere was extremely awkward.
"Your Highness, I...I didn't mean it."
At this moment, Xiao Yan felt embarrassed that he could make a hole in it.
"Ahem, well... I can explain this!"
Ye Youyue shook her head and said, "My status is low, Your Highness, there is no need to explain anything to me."
"Your Highness, as the crown prince, naturally there are always women around you. I understand that."
"I am not related to Your Highness, Your Highness does not need to explain!"
After saying this, Ye Youyue couldn't help but draw circles with her hands, feeling very aggrieved.
Xiao Yan was immediately confused. What sin had he committed? Why didn't he clean up this thing ?
"It's not Youyue, listen to me, this thing he..."
For a moment, Xiao Yan didn't know how to explain it. He couldn't say that this thing belonged to Hu Shanxiang, right?
Seeing Xiao Yan's embarrassment, Ye Youyue quickly said, "Your Highness, you really don't need to explain."
"I'm not here to serve you. You...will always need...something. I understand."
"I just hope that I can have a place in your heart. That's enough. I don't ask for anything else."
"I have said that I am yours in life and yours in death. These words will always stand!"
Xiao Yan also knew that the girl was jealous, and it was also his fault.
Just throw this thing away. It's so disgusting to put it under the pillow. Isn't this just looking for trouble?
However, Xiao Yan did not expect Ye Youyue to move the pillow.
Xiao Yan also stepped forward and held Ye Youyue's hand.
"Youyue, this... is my fault, but don't worry, you will always have a place here."
In fact, Ye Youyue had already started crying when she said this. No woman is willing to share her man with others.
Ye Youyue was the same, but he knew that he couldn't keep Xiao Yan under control by himself.
Xiao Ran gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Ye Youyue's eyes and held her in his arms.
Ye Youyue leaned in Xiao Yan's arms and felt his warmth.
"Your Highness, may I know who this belongs to?"
Xiao Yan was furious at this moment. Didn’t he stop asking?
Although he held both girls in his arms at that time, he was just holding them.
The emergence of this thing is hard to explain even if there is a reason.
"Well, you'd better not ask, but I promise you, nothing really happened between us."
At this time, Ye Youyue slowly raised her head and appeared in front of Xiao Yan with an aggrieved face.
"Your Highness, do you think I am a fool?"
Xiao Yan was really speechless at this moment, and felt like a fool.
"You are so smart, how could you be a fool? But what I said is true, you can rest assured."
"You are tired too. Lie down for a while. I will call you when the meal is ready!"
Ye Youyue knew that she would not get anything out of him if she continued asking. In this era, it was very normal for men to have three wives and four concubines.
Then he lay down obediently.
Xiao Yan was sitting beside the bed, and Ye Youyue was looking at him with her beautiful eyes slightly opened.
"Be good, close your eyes and have a good rest!"
Ye Youyue then closed her eyes obediently, probably because she was really too tired.
Just as he finished speaking, he heard Ye Youyue's gentle breathing. She fell asleep!
Looking at Ye Youyue's beautiful face, Xiao Yan couldn't help but reach out and touch Ye Youyue's cheek.
"You, silly girl, you treated me with all your heart, how could I ever let you down!"
"Sleep peacefully!"
Reaching out and covering Ye Youyue with a blanket, Xiao Yan quietly closed the door and went out.
What he didn't know was that when he went out, Ye Youyue showed a satisfied smile on her face.
