After thinking about it for hundreds of times, Yun Yi finally decided to go there himself and go to the legendary Queen's Fengyu Palace.

As he walked, he was thinking about how to communicate with Queen Zhou.

Queen Zhou was sipping tea leisurely that day. When she heard that the Emperor had arrived, she hurriedly put down the teacup in her hand.

How come the emperor has time to come and see her today?

Are you going to check the accounts of my Fengyu Palace?

Or is he thinking of some new trick to torment her?

She hurriedly straightened her gorgeous clothes, put on a standard smile on her face, and came out to greet him.

As soon as Yun Yi saw her, he got straight to the point: "Queen, I came here today to discuss something with you."

Queen Zhou's heart tightened, but she remained expressionless.

"Oh? Your Majesty, please speak."

Yun Yi cleared his throat, remained silent for a moment and decided to play straight.

"I recently heard that your elder brother has a magical jade pendant on his hand, which is said to be able to transfer pain. I think this thing is very magical. I wonder if the queen can..."

At this point, Queen Zhou understood about 70% of the situation.

It turned out that the emperor was thinking about that jade pendant.

She smiled slightly: "Your Majesty, I understand what you mean. I will find a suitable time to ask my elder brother if I can lend the jade pendant to Your Majesty."

Yun Yi was overjoyed and nodded modestly.

"The Queen is so considerate. I am so grateful."

Queen Zhou secretly complained in her heart.

The emperor really knows how to pick the time. Knowing that I have been very idle recently, he came to find something for me to do.

However, it's not impossible for me to lend you this jade pendant, but you have to give me some benefits.

Yun Yi caught a glimpse of Queen Zhou's half-smile, and there was a hint of ridicule in her tone.

"Queen, looking at your expression, someone who doesn't know me would think that I owe you a lot of gold and silver.

Don't worry, although I, the emperor, have no real power, I will never treat you, the beautiful queen, unfairly."

He is such a coward as an emperor!

Yun Yi gently stroked the warm teacup, feeling the warmth from the outside world with his fingertips, but his heart seemed to be covered with ice and snow.

As an emperor, he had to be very careful even when drinking tea, for fear that some powerful official was doing something behind his back.

This is not an emperor at all, he is simply a "puppet emperor"!

He raised his head, looked through the window lattice at the distant sky, and a surge of lofty sentiments and ambitions surged in his heart.

This world should have belonged to him!

Although Yun Yi is the emperor, he will never be willing to be just a puppet!

He wants to bring the world back under his control!

Yun Yi put down his teacup, stood up, and straightened his clothes, like a general about to go to war.

He glanced at Queen Zhou who was secretly plotting, a barely perceptible sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he turned around and walked into the imperial study with steady steps, ready to continue his "memorial war".

Queen Zhou was like a cunning fox, her eyes rolling around, thinking about how to "extort" some benefits from the emperor.

Although the emperor usually looks serious, she is the queen closest to him after all, so she has to give him some "face", right?

Far away in Zhou Mansion, when Shangshu Zhou received the letter that was urgently sent from the palace, his brows instantly twisted into the shape of a "川" character, as if they could pinch a fly to death.

He secretly groaned in his heart, what the Queen is doing now?

When Minister Zhou got the mysterious jade pendant, he felt mixed emotions.

He originally planned to present it to the emperor. After all, any disturbance in Ling Kingdom would always be reported to Yun Kingdom. If the emperor knew about the existence of the jade pendant first, he would never be able to clear himself even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

What's more, the Emperor of Yun State has been frail since childhood, and he values ​​this jade pendant that can transfer pain very much.

If I offer the jade pendant in advance, I might be accused of treason, and then I would be in big trouble.

Minister Zhou pondered in his heart, if this jade pendant really had the legendary effect, wouldn’t he become the emperor’s “lifesaver”?

But on second thought, what if this jade pendant is a hot potato? Would the emperor use their relatives for experiments to transfer his illness?

When he thought of this possibility, Minister Zhou couldn't help but shudder.

So, he hurried back home yesterday with the jade pendant in his pocket.

Now that he saw the Queen's letter, he felt as if he had taken a reassurance pill and his heart instantly felt much more at ease.

Yes, they are the queen’s relatives, not the emperor’s direct blood relatives. Even if they are really used for experiments, the emperor has to consider the consequences, right?

The royal family has declined, and nowadays, the number of the emperor’s direct relatives that can be found is probably more than can be counted on five fingers.

Even if we really find these so-called "relatives", they are probably only distant relatives who are not even related to us at all. The effect would probably not be as good as that of a passerby.

After Minister Zhou figured this out, his heart, which had been hanging for days, finally calmed down like a tired bird that found a branch to perch on.

While comforting himself, he opened the letter from the palace.

The letter read: "Dear uncle, did you receive the jade pendant? The emperor has been in poor health recently, and I want you to think of a way to see if the jade pendant can play a magical role. If you succeed, I will definitely reward you handsomely."

After reading the letter, Minister Zhou couldn't help but smile bitterly. The Queen is such a shrewd calculator!

However, since the Queen Mother has spoken, he, as the eldest brother, naturally has to give her face.

He immediately convened the think tank in his family and began brainstorming, thinking about how to "cleverly" send the jade pendant to the emperor while pleasing the queen.

This jade pendant is like a bomb that could explode. He cannot touch it easily.

Minister Zhou rolled his eyes and decided to play a trick of "borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha".

He asked someone to secretly deliver the jade pendant to the queen.

Since the emperor wants this jade pendant, let the queen deliver it. This way the risk will be much smaller.

Having made up his mind, Minister Zhou immediately wrote an earnest letter, carefully wrapped the jade pendant in it, and sent someone to deliver it to the palace as soon as possible.

Not long after, the jade pendant finally fell into the hands of the queen.

The queen smiled slightly. This elder brother is really a smart man. He knows how to go with the flow.

She immediately presented the jade pendant to the emperor.

The emperor looked at the beautiful jade in front of him, and a gleam of surprise flashed in his eyes, as if he had discovered a new world.

As he stroked the jade pendant, he sighed inwardly.

This queen is so considerate!

He just mentioned it briefly, and she came to his rescue so quickly!

He narrowed his eyes, as if trying to see through the surface of the jade pendant and peek into the mysterious power contained within.

The jade pendant exuded a warm luster in his hand, as if it had its own life, and produced some kind of wonderful resonance with him.

The emperor couldn't help but feel even more grateful to the queen.

At this moment, the emperor suddenly discovered that there seemed to be some words engraved on the jade pendant.

He took a closer look and saw a few crooked small words engraved on it: "Be careful not to fall!"

The emperor was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

Queen, you are so naughty!

He actually engraved such a sentence on the jade pendant. Are you afraid that I would break this treasure?

He smiled and shook his head, continuing to play with the jade pendant in his hand, but his heart was warm.
