A Female King’s Love Story - Chapter 66

“Reporting to your majesty, the regent’s bodyguard requests an audience.” The palace maid came out from the imperial garden to report to Joe.

“Let him in.” Joe still waved his hand.

“Yes.” The palace maid bowed as she retreated.

“Your majesty.” Yan Mu showed a respectful expression as he cupped his hands towards Qiao and continued.

“The guards are here. May I ask what you have in mind?” Qiao Qiao still frowned. It didn’t matter whether this matter in the palace was caused by Yan Mo Chen, at the very least, he had to be on guard against this cold and ruthless uncle.

“Your Majesty is too serious.” Yan Mu bowed slightly. For some reason, he felt that the emperor was deliberately keeping his distance from him. “This subordinate came here in the name of the prince to pay his respects to the emperor.”

“Oh? Then may I ask for your presence in the Heartbreak Palace. ” Qiao Qiao’s lips still curled up slightly.

“Yes.” Yan Mu cupped his hands and retreated.

“Your majesty, the Regent is looking for you. I don’t know what his purpose is.” The Emperor could forget what the Regent had done, but she would never forget it. She remembered that from time to time, the Regent had tried to suppress the Emperor’s real power, and had even attempted to murder the Emperor. Just from these few points alone, she couldn’t help but remind the Emperor that the Regent was not a kind person.

“Go take a look and you’ll know.” Qiao Qiao still had a smile on her face. Towards this uncle of hers, she was able to hold her own.

“Yes.” Xiyue replied.

“Eh? “Xiyue, what happened to Yingyue after she ran away from the palace that day?” Qiao Qiao’s steps were still light as he asked with concern.

“Reporting to the Emperor, Yingyue is fine now, but she’s still young and has a temper. Once she’s gone, she’ll be gone.” Xiyue replied.

“En, that’s good. If there’s nothing else, accompany her more.” Joe continued.

Yes, this servant understands.” However, Yingyue’s temper was a bit strange this time, so she couldn’t listen to her at all. If she had the chance in the future, she would ask the Emperor to let Yingyue leave the palace, find a good home, and live a peaceful life for a lifetime.

“We’re here. Go handle the matter that This Emperor told you to do first. Tell Qingwu to come serve you in a bit.” Seeing that Xiyue was still stunned for a long time, Qiao Qiao slowly said.

“Yes.” Xiyue bowed, then left.

The words “Great Hall of Mind” were still in front of Qiao Qiao as she slowly took a deep breath and walked into the hall.

Indeed, Yan Mo Chen had been standing in the middle of the hall for a long time.

“As expected, royal uncle is punctual.” Joe was still smiling.

“The Emperor didn’t arrive too late.” Yan Mo Chen turned around and walked past Qiao Qiao blankly. He spoke indifferently and with light footsteps, he moved to the front of the table and sat down.

“Could it be that Imperial Uncle came to me today just to drink tea with me?” Qiao Qiao still raised his eyebrows and sat opposite Yan Mo Chen.

“Your Majesty, please drink some tea first.” Yan Mo Chen picked up the teacup in his hand and handed it to Qiao Qiao.

“Tsk tsk, today my royal uncle is so attentive, could it be …” Is there any poison in the tea? ” Qiao Qiao still frowned. Although he raised his hand, his tone was doubtful as he asked with a probing tone.

“If This King wanted you to die, you wouldn’t have lived to this day.” Yan Mo Chen said indifferently with no expression on his face, making it hard for people to guess what he was thinking.

“As expected of Imperial Uncle, he is clearly not speaking in secret.” Qiao Qiao still smiled with a hint of ridicule. If it was the past, Yan Mo Chen might have been able to boast so shamelessly. But now, she was still not someone who could be controlled by anyone.

With that, he took the teacup in Yan Mo Chen’s hand and started sipping it.
