Within the Imperial Palace of the capital.
“Eunuch Liu, please inform Imperial Father that your son has something important to report!” The Third Prince said.
Eunuch Liu shook his head and said, ” Your Highness, it’s not that I didn’t want to help you. His Majesty had decreed that for the time being, all officials, princes, and concubines were not to be seen unless there was an important matter! So, Third Prince, you should go back!”
Hearing Eunuch Liu’s words, Yuwen Feiye frowned and left!
Moon Hall
“Ye ‘er, you still haven’t seen him, right?” Noble Consort Zhou immediately asked when she saw her son enter.
Yuwen Feiye shook his head and said, ” No!”
After that, he thought for a while and asked in confusion, ” Father is not meeting anyone. Consort Mother, what illness has Father fallen ill with? Don’t tell me that even you don’t know?”
In the past, whenever Imperial Father had a headache or fever, his mother would be by the side of the bed, serving him.
But why did it have to be this time that Imperial Father refused Imperial Mother’s service, and similarly refused the service of others?
This was a little strange.
Noble Consort Zhou shook her head and said, I asked Imperial Physician Liu, but his mouth was too tight. Other than saying that the Emperor had a slight cold, there was nothing serious.”
She was also very puzzled.
Since the emperor’s illness was not serious, how could the diligent Emperor lie in bed all day and close his doors, refusing to see anyone?
I heard that even the Empress was rejected.
This was very abnormal!
Zhou Mansion
“Third Prince, you mean that His Majesty hasn’t gone to court for the past five to six days, and hasn’t seen anyone?” Zhou Dehong asked doubtfully.
“Yes, Uncle!” Yuwen Feiye nodded.
Zhou Dehong said in confusion, ” That’s strange! The emperor was not such a lazy person. He had never stopped the morning court session. Why had he disappeared for five to six days?”
Yuwen Feiye shook his head, then looked at Zhou Dehong and said very seriously, ” Uncle, Mother suspects that Father is no longer in the palace!”
When Zhou Dehong heard this, his eyes widened, and he said in surprise, This… Are you sure?” However, after hearing this news, a conspiracy was brewing in his heart.
Yuwen Feiye shook his head and said, ” I’m not sure. But mother said that this was already eighty to ninety percent certain. So, Uncle, Mother’s meaning is that Uncle can send some people to secretly go outside to find Father’s whereabouts!”
When Zhou Dehong guessed that the Emperor might leave the palace, he already had a plan in his heart. Now that he heard that his nephew wanted him to investigate the Emperor’s whereabouts, he was naturally very willing. He even felt a sense of joy in his heart.
However, he did not show it on his face. Instead, he nodded with a serious expression. ” Yes, Uncle knows. However, Third Prince, you should know that even if His Majesty secretly leaves the palace, there will definitely be many people protecting him. If he finds out, then …” The consequences would be extremely severe.
Yuwen Feiye immediately said, i ‘ Uncle, we’re just checking on His Majesty’s whereabouts. We don’t need to do anything! Consort Mother said, you must make sure Imperial Father won’t be seduced by the vixen outside!”
Zhou Dehong nodded and replied, Okay, then Uncle knows what to do!”
After Yuwen Feiye left, Zhou Dehong went to see Old Master Zhou Zhenlin.
When Zhou Zhenlin saw him, he asked, “How’s the search for Divine Illusion going?”
Zhou Dehong replied respectfully, I ‘ Father, there is no news from the Yama Pavilion for the time being!’
When Zhou Zhenbin heard this, he frowned and said, ” How do they do things? Why is it so slow?” Then, he stared at Zhou Dehong with a sharp gaze and asked in confusion, “ Did you not give them enough money, so they delayed their work?”
He was questioning Zhou Dehong. He had taken too little silver from his private treasury, which was why Yama Pavillion was dragging things out.
When Zhou Dehong heard this, his expression immediately changed. He said, Father, I wouldn’t dare!” That was to say, he did not dare to delay the big matter because of a small silver!
In fact, his heart was dark. He could not help but curse, ‘I paid and worked hard. Why should I be questioned?’ It seemed that his father was becoming more and more suspicious and dissatisfied with him! ‘No, I have to stay calm. I have to endure!’
Zhou Zhenlin’s sharp eyes stared at his eldest son, and he said coldly, ” Yes, it’s best that you know your place!”
