e, "I won't forget you."Zhao Yuer narrowed her eyes, "Yi Gege, actually I have a way to make you forget me forever."Mo Jun Yi let out a light chuckle, "There's no need for any methods, nor will I ever...When the Imperial Guards marched up to him impassively, Cheng Yongying instinctively wanted to stand up. After kneeling for several hours, he couldn't stand steady at all. His voice was weak when he spoke:

"But would Your Majesty be willing to see me"

Several Imperial Guardsmen, their faces unmoved, reached out and pulled him up.

Cheng Yongying's knee was truly hurting. Being pulled up so forcefully, he instantly winced in pain, his face contorting. He hurriedly gasped, "Slowly, slowly... it hurts too much, please let me rise gradually."

"...."

Hearing this, several guards burst into laughter. With their lives on the line, he was still asking for a slow death

Cheng Yongying had been able to mix among the officials for many years, naturally he was also good at reading people. Seeing the obvious mockery and expressions of these Imperial Guards, his heart skipped a beat.

He stared at one of them, "You... what do you want"

The guard he was eyeing just gave him a disdainful glance. "What do you want Naturally, I'm here for your life."

"! "

Cheng Yongying's face changed instantly. He thought he had misheard, but before he could react, the Imperial Guards standing before him had already dragged him away with brute force.

"You... What are you doing I... I'm an official appointed by the court, what do you intend to do Let me go!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty... I wish to see Your Majesty."

No matter what Cheng Yongying said or shouted, the people dragging him pretended not to hear and dragged him straight out of the palace.

Throughout this journey, Cheng Yongying had been incessantly demanding to see the Emperor. The Imperial Guard was thoroughly exasperated by his incessant demands and simply resorted to stuffing a cloth into his mouth, effectively silencing him completely.

After the Cheng family gathered together, even the eunuch who delivered imperial edicts by the emperor's side didn't know what had happened here. He glanced at the crowd of onlookers gathering nearby and immediately raised his voice, announcing the emperor's decree to everyone present.

He immediately blamed all the wrongs on the Cheng family and deliberately proclaimed it in front of so many people, intending to make this matter a reality.

The emperor's decree immediately left the Cheng family completely dumbfounded.

How is this possible What on earth is the emperor saying

The Imperial Guards in front of them would never have allowed them a chance to speak. Before the imperial eunuch finished speaking, they were already being taken to the execution ground by the Imperial Guards who covered their mouths.

This sudden turn of events came too fast. Before anyone could react, dozens of the Cheng family had fallen to the ground.

But the emperor's actions against the Cheng family did indeed shift the public's discourse. The negative opinions towards the emperor underwent a drastic change in a very short time.

The Emperor was waiting for news, and Ye Er, having received no orders, continued to stand firm by the Emperor's side.

Until a trusted eunuch brought back news from outside the palace, informing the emperor that the public's chatter no longer held unfavorable remarks about him, a smile finally graced the emperor's face.

Ye Er's method really worked. The emperor immediately laughed heartily at Ye Er, "Ye Qing, I knew that with you here, there is no problem."

Huāduǒ'er sneered inwardly. It sounded nice now, but he had never allowed Yè'èr to leave the palace because he was unsure if this method would actually solve the problem, let alone whether it would affect him.

Once Ye Er's suggestion failed to solve his problem, he would not treat Ye Er with such laughter and smiles as he does now. He would definitely hold Ye Er accountable.

A scapegoat is found, two scapegoats are also found, sacrificing the Cheng family cannot solve it, what's wrong with sacrificing others

Thankfully, the outcome was still alright, or else Ye Er wouldn't have been able to escape unscathed.

So now, hearing the emperor speak like this, she only found it ironic and laughable!

Ye Er naturally understood, but at this moment facing the emperor's lies, Ye Er still smiled and bowed to the emperor, saying, "It is my honor to be able to share the worries of Your Majesty."

The emperor loved to hear such things, “Good, Ye Qing has done well today. I will reward you handsomely.”

He said there would be a heavy reward, but then the emperor only had some tonics prepared for Ye Er.

Ye Er didn't care about this at all. Today's matter is considered completely resolved.

After the emperor finished bestowing rewards upon Ye Er, Huāduǒ noticed that his face had paled considerably. She frowned slightly, walked up to the emperor, and softly coaxed him:

"Your Majesty, I see that Master Ye's complexion is quite pale. If Your Majesty has nothing else to attend to, perhaps it would be best for Master Ye to return home and rest"

Upon hearing this reminder from the flower, the emperor seemed to just realize it, "Right, right, look at my memory! Since Lady Ye is unwell, I'll have someone send her back."

Ye Er bowed, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Before leaving, Ye Er and Huaduo's eyes met for a fleeting moment in the emperor's blind spot.

After Ye Er left, Hua Duo’er suddenly said, “Your Majesty, you seem very tired today. May I brew some tonic for you”

The medicine that Huaduo'er spoke of was the same tonic prescribed by the renowned doctor who had recently cured Ye Er. The reason he was willing to come to Huaduo'er, besides her undeniable charm, was for this very tonic she possessed.

Every time he drank this kind of tonic, he could clearly feel his body getting stronger and no longer as weak as before.

He really felt weak and powerless all over. Hearing what Huador said, he almost didn't think about it before nodding in agreement, "Okay, I have a headache right now, so let me lie down and rest for a while."

"Your Majesty, allow me to help you lie down."

"Hmm."

After settling the emperor, Huāduǒr used her pretext of not feeling at ease to have the emperor's most trusted eunuch guard him while she hurried away to the small kitchen.

The eunuch, seeing the empress so flustered, smiled and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, the Empress truly cares for you. Look at how worried she is ever since she knew you were unwell."

A smirk played on the Emperor's lips. He enjoyed being pampered this way. If one day Huā Duǒr wasn't as worried about him as she was today, her favor would end.

......

The flowers didn't care what the emperor was thinking, and she indeed went to the small kitchen. After getting everyone out, she turned serious, locked the door, and opened the window that rarely saw the light of day.

She glanced left and right, then jumped out immediately through this small kitchen window, which could quickly lead to the Cold Palace.

After she jumped over the wall, she immediately saw Ye Er standing under the tree.

Ye Er naturally saw her as well. When the flower approached, he spoke directly, "Your Highness has something to do with me"

With time running out, she had to get back to the small kitchen as soon as possible. Otherwise, those people would surely become suspicious. So, there was no point in beating around the bush with Ye Er any longer. She directly asked, “Ye DaRen, who are you working for”" was the first thing he said, his words landing squarely on Bai Longqian's face.He wondered, after he and Mo Yunjing had fallen together at that time, why he hadn't died.But the people of Bai Guang P...
