Chapter 107 Entering the Palace
Shen Yubao had been holding the chestnut cake for a long time. When he was wondering why his father ignored him, he saw Ji Chilian lowered his head and ate the chestnut cake in his hand.
Ji Chilian chewed the food with extremely graceful movements, seemingly unaware of anything. "It tastes really good."
"Then Daddy, eat more." Shen Yubao picked up another piece of chestnut cake, and before he got close to Ji Chilian, he heard him coughing.
As if he was choked by the bite of pastry just now, Ji Chilian's face did not look good and he kept coughing.
Shen Yubao patted Ji Chilian's back worriedly, and when he saw that there was no improvement, he handed his tea to Ji Chilian.
"Dad, you must have choked. Drink some of my tea to calm down."
Yi Mobao had no chance to stop it at all. He watched Shen Yubao hand the cup of tea with the antidote to Ji Chilian.
Ji Chilian took the teacup, drank the tea in it, and finally stopped coughing: "Thanks to this cup of tea that came in time, I'm fine now."
"Then Dad, please have some tea. I don't feel like drinking tea today, so I'll just have some snacks." Shen Yubao stuffed the entire teacup to Ji Chilian and casually stuffed the chestnut cake into his mouth.
"You can't eat it!" Yi Mobao didn't expect so many unexpected things to happen in such a short time. He held Shen Yubao's hand, but was still a step too late.
Shen Yubao saw Yi Mobao's pale face and quickly realized something: "Brother Mo, you wouldn't..."
"These pastries are not very good anymore. I'll take you to the kitchen and make some new ones for you." Yi Mobao grabbed Shen Yubao and left without waiting for him to finish.
Yi Qianhuan looked at Yi Mobao's dejected back and couldn't help but chuckle.
"Is this how the Crown Prince's wife usually educates her children?" Ji Chilian gently put down the tea bowl in her hand. "This pastry contains Qianyu Dew. If you eat it by mistake and don't take the antidote in time, you will feel pain and itchiness all over your body for the next three days, and you may even be unable to sleep."
"Mobao has loved studying these strange and bizarre things since he was young. People around him always fall into his trap when they get close to him." Yi Qianhuan naturally stood on Yi Mobao's side.
"What's more, the governor has already taught him today that there are always people better than you. I think he won't be so reckless in the future."
Ji Chilian's eyes flashed with a faint smile: "Are you sure it wasn't me who taught him to prepare in advance? If he has any ideas next time, he will do better than this time."
The better Yimobao does, the harder it is to deal with.
"Then please ask Governor to stay away from Mobao. This way, as long as Mobao can't see Governor, he will naturally have no chance." Yi Qianhuan knew very well that Yi Mobao actually had no intention of killing him, but was just a little unhappy with Ji Chilian.
"The emperor was very pleased when he heard that the dragon vein had been repaired, and he planned to reward the Crown Prince's wife. This governor came here today not only for the matter of Yu Bao, but also to convey the emperor's order and invite the Crown Prince's wife to the palace to meet him."
When Yi Qianhuan thought about entering the palace, a deep resistance appeared in his eyes.
She hated those rules the most.
She was just about to ask if she could not go when she heard Ji Chilian speak.
"I heard that the emperor even opened the national treasury and took out the colored glaze lamp in order to prepare a reward for the Crown Prince's wife..."
"I'll go to the palace to express my gratitude right now." Yi Qianhuan had heard of the Glazed Treasure Lamp a long time ago. This thing was rare and had the effect of nourishing the soul. It was a magical tool.
If it was for this treasure, she wouldn't mind even if she had to go to the palace and suffer some torture.
Ji Chilian stood up and led Yi Qianhuan out of Pingyang Marquis Mansion and got into his carriage.
Half an hour later, Yi Qianhuan and Ji Chilian arrived at Fengkang Palace where the Queen Mother was.
"Today, the Regent came to the palace to pay his respects to the Queen Mother, and the Emperor also came to visit her." Ji Chilian said, standing beside Yi Qianhuan.
Yi Qianhuan listened silently.
This means that she will not only meet the emperor, but also the empress dowager and the regent.
As for this regent, Yi Qianhuan didn't dislike him.
She had heard of the Regent Bei Zhanye, who was the tenth son of the late emperor, a brave and warlike man, a half-brother of the current emperor, and a good prince who cared deeply about the people.
In contrast, the Queen Mother and the Imperial Master were on good terms, and it even seemed that Lin Wanyue's release from prison last time was with the Queen Mother's tacit approval.
Thinking this in his mind, Yi Qianhuan waited for Ji Chilian to come in, informed her and then brought her into the hall.
As expected, he saw the Empress Dowager and the Emperor sitting in the first seat, as well as the Regent sitting on the left side of the mother and son. Yi Qianhuan first looked at the Empress Dowager and the Emperor.
These two people were indeed wealthy and powerful people, with an elegant and auspicious purple-gold aura about them.
Needless to say, the fate of those in high positions is very important. The empress dowager is the master of the harem, and the emperor is in charge of the world. Naturally, they are not ordinary people.
Logically, the Regent should do the same.
But what surprised Yi Qianhuan was that the auspicious aura surrounding the Regent was obscured by an ominous blood-black mist.
Seeing that the ominous fog had completely obscured the Regent's face, Yi Qianhuan secretly paid attention and did not say much, but instead set his eyes on the extra person present.
I saw Baili Ting standing behind the Queen Mother.
From the moment she entered the door, she could clearly feel Baili Ting's murderous gaze fixed on her.
Ignoring Ji Chilian for the time being, Yi Qianhuan saluted the emperor first.
"My daughter has met the emperor."
"Madam, you don't have to be so polite. I have heard from Chi Lian that this time, it was thanks to Madam that the dragon vein could be perfectly restored. In this case, you are a great contributor to our Yunzhao!" Emperor Bei Yunting looked at Yi Qianhuan with a smile in his eyes.
"The Governor is not a master of mysticism, and his understanding of this matter is actually far less than that of the National Master. Speaking of which, the National Master made a bet with me at that time, saying that if I did not harm the dragon vein, he would be willing to kowtow to me and apologize. As a result, the National Master left in a hurry and forgot about this matter. I wonder if the National Master has remembered it?" Yi Qianhuan's smiling eyes fell on the National Master, and he asked with a smile.
The Imperial Master's face suddenly turned pale, and he almost clenched his fists.
It was obvious that Yi Qianhuan brought up this matter on purpose in order to embarrass him!
But he just couldn't do anything about Yi Qianhuan.
Because there was indeed a bet between them.
The Queen Mother looked at Yi Qianhuan with a hint of dissatisfaction in her eyes: "Grandmaster, if that's the case, you should apologize to the Crown Prince's wife."
Baili Ting's eyes lit up when he understood the Queen Mother's meaning. He looked at Yi Qianhuan and said, "Madam, I was too concerned about the dragon vein before, so I accidentally misunderstood you. It was not intentional. Today I apologize to you in public and hope you will forgive me."
Without waiting for Yi Qianhuan to speak, the Queen Mother spoke first: "I have heard that the Crown Prince's wife is very powerful and is definitely not an ordinary person. She is also a generous and sensible child. After all, the Imperial Master is also the Crown Prince's wife's elder. If he really kowtows to apologize to the Crown Prince's wife, wouldn't it be embarrassing for the Crown Prince's wife?"
