Chapter 335 Your Majesty, You Know
The atmosphere in the Yangxin Palace was solemn. Emperor Suwen calmly waved his hand, signaling all the servants to leave. Seeing this, Eunuch Liu hurriedly and respectfully left the palace and stood guard outside the door.
Yue Lan looked at the scene in front of her and couldn't help feeling a little nervous. She looked at Yun Yuxi carefully, only to see that Yun Yuxi looked calm and didn't seem to be affected by the depressing atmosphere.
"Yuelan, please go and wait outside the palace first. In my opinion, the emperor must have something important to discuss with me. There are guards all around, so I don't think there will be any danger. You don't have to worry, right, Your Majesty?" Yun Yuxi said calmly, and when he turned his gaze to Emperor Suwen, there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Your Highness is right. I will take my leave now. Please take care of yourself. If anything happens, just shout and I will come to protect you immediately." Yue Lan responded respectfully, then glanced at Yun Yuxi worriedly before turning around and leaving.
After Yuelan left, Yun Yuxi looked up at Emperor Suwen and said bluntly: "Your Majesty, since there is no one else here, you should just speak frankly. There is no need to beat around the bush. Besides, Your Majesty and I are alone in a room here. It is against etiquette and inappropriate if it gets out." Yun Yuxi's words were crisp and clear, without showing any mercy to Emperor Suwen.
Upon hearing this, Emperor Suwen was not angry, but laughed with interest: "Haha, you are really different from others, you speak so straightforwardly. However, I appreciate your frankness."
"That's right. The prince also likes this side of me. I have to thank the emperor for granting us this marriage. Otherwise, how could I be so happy now?" Yun Yuxi said shamelessly.
"You are so shameless. If I had known you were so outstanding, I would have kept you by your side. I wouldn't have to eat dog food today," Emperor Su Wen said half-jokingly. In fact, this was also what he really thought.
Who knows how many times he would see Yun Yuxi's bright face in his dreams at midnight, and then wake up to find it was all a dream, feeling lost.
"Okay, Your Majesty, if you want me to cooperate with you in performing a good show, I will naturally listen attentively." Yun Yuxi was pregnant and could not stand for too long, so she found a place to sit down without hesitation.
Emperor Su Wen narrowed his eyes slightly, quietly staring at Yun Yuxi's every move, thinking to himself: "This woman really acts on impulse! She doesn't have the dignity that a lady from a noble family should have. With such a personality, even if I keep her by my side, I'm afraid it will be difficult to keep her heart..."
At this moment, Yun Yuxi noticed the strange look of Emperor Su Wen, and said with a sweet smile: "Your Majesty, what are you thinking about? Why are you in a daze? I am a little hungry now. Could you trouble Eunuch Liu to bring me some snacks to satisfy my craving?" After she finished speaking, she blinked her beautiful eyes, and her cute and lovely appearance made people feel pity for her.
Emperor Suwen came back to his senses and said in a loud voice: "Eunuch Liu, please quickly go into the palace and go to the imperial kitchen to get some exquisite snacks to fill the stomach of the Regent Princess." His voice was loud and powerful, echoing in the palace.
After a while, Eunuch Liu came in with plates of fragrant and beautifully shaped snacks, and carefully placed them on the table. Yun Yuxi saw this, a trace of joy flashed in her eyes, and she hurriedly thanked Emperor Su Wen.
Then, while tasting the delicious snacks, she urged impatiently: "Your Majesty, please tell me the reason and plan for summoning me today. If I delay any longer, it will be getting dark and I have to leave the palace and return home. If I go back too late, I'm afraid my prince will be waiting anxiously." As she spoke, she subconsciously stroked her abdomen gently, her movements soft and natural.
Emperor Suwen keenly caught this subtle movement, and his heart was shocked. Suddenly, he suddenly realized that they had already had a child! And they had been able to conceal this matter so well before. It seemed that there must be many secrets unknown to outsiders. Thinking of this, Emperor Suwen seemed to have figured out many problems that had been bothering him before.
"My dragon guards were unable to find out about the assassination attempt. This matter seems to be much more serious than I thought. Wuque's leg has not healed yet, and I have no one else to use. It is better to let the second prince die so that I can find out the mastermind behind it."
"Ah..." With a cry of surprise, Yun Yuxi froze, and the snack in her hand fell instantly, and the crumbs of the snack fell to the ground like snowflakes. At the same time, some tiny crumbs rushed into her throat along with her breath!
Yun Yuxi felt as if her throat was pierced by thousands of needles at the same time, and she burst into a violent cough. She bent over, covered her chest with one hand, and slapped her back with the other hand, trying to cough out the foreign object stuck in her throat. However, the hateful debris seemed to be against her and refused to leave.
Yue Lan, who was outside the palace, heard the cough and hurried in to hand over a cup of warm tea. Yun Yuxi took the cup and poured the tea into her mouth in big gulps without caring about her image.
The cool tea slid down her throat, bringing a little relief, but the coughing had not completely stopped. After a lot of trouble, she finally calmed down, her face flushed because of the violent coughing just now.
At this time, Emperor Su Wen, who was sitting above, frowned and scolded him unhappily: "How old are you? You are still so impatient! Now you are about to become my mother's, why are you still so careless?"
Hearing this, Yun Yuxi was shocked and showed an expression of disbelief on her face. She stared at Emperor Su Wen with wide eyes and stammered, "Your Majesty, how did you know that I was... pregnant?" She originally thought that this secret was only known by those close to her, but she didn't expect that Emperor Su Wen also saw through everything.
Emperor Suwen snorted and explained slowly, "I didn't send anyone to spy on you. It's just that you always caress your belly inadvertently, and your figure has become a little plump recently, so these subtle details naturally can't escape my eyes. After all, I am also the father of several children, so I do have some experience."
Yun Yuxi's cheeks suddenly turned redder when she heard this, like a ripe apple. She lowered her head, fiddled with the corner of her clothes a little embarrassedly, and muttered to herself: "Ah, so that's how it is... But this..."
Before she could finish, Emperor Suwen interrupted her and said seriously, "Okay, let's not talk about these irrelevant things. Let's talk about the business. I order you to pretend that you have failed to cure the Second Prince's illness and let him die of the illness.
This is just a stopgap measure, the purpose is to lure out the mastermind. I expected that someone would come to silence me tonight, so I have already laid a net, waiting to see which of my "good sons" dares to use such a despicable method! "
