Traveled through time and became the darling of the whole family

Ye Ziyu didn't like this kind of large-scale banquet, and the serious atmosphere just now made her feel uncomfortable, so she wanted to find a place to get some fresh air.

Ye Ziyu stared at the pool of water in front of her in a daze, completely unaware that someone was approaching.

"Miss Ye San can see things that ordinary people cannot see?" A male voice suddenly sounded beside her ear, and Ye Ziyu was startled.

"Young Marquis Fang." Ye Ziyu saluted.

"Yeah." Fang Jingxiu said.

Ye Ziyu stood up and continued to look ahead, while Fang Jingxiu also stood motionlessly beside her, looking ahead.

This weird atmosphere made Ye Ziyu unable to bear it.

"Young Marquis Fang, is there something wrong?"

"nothing."

Ye Ziyu: ...

The two of them stared at the pool of water in front of them without saying anything. Ye Ziyu couldn't help but speak again.

"There's nothing to see here." Fang Jingxiu spoke first.

"Ah?" Ye Ziyu didn't understand and looked at Fang Jingxiu.

Fang Jingxiu turned around and said to Ye Ziyu, "I said there's nothing interesting in this pool. What is Miss Ye San looking at?"

The bright moonlight sprinkled on Fang Jingxiu's face, showing the contours of Fang Jingxiu's face perfectly. It was the first time that Ye Ziyu saw Fang Jingxiu's face up close. "So handsome..." For Ye Ziyu, who was used to seeing handsome guys in the real world, the male protagonist's appearance was really amazing.

Fang Jingxiu raised his eyebrows when he saw Ye Ziyu's expression, "Miss Ye San is drooling."

"Ah?" Ye Ziyu wiped it, "..." There is nothing at all!

Fang Jingxiu smiled unconsciously.

Ye Ziyu realized that Fang Jingxiu was teasing her, so she closed her eyes and took a deep breath, then opened her eyes and put on a professional fake smile, "I won't disturb Young Marquis Fang from enjoying the scenery here, goodbye." Then she bowed and hurried away.

When Ye Ziyu reached the place where the palace maid was supposed to be waiting, she found that the palace maid was gone. Without thinking much, she walked back to the hall based on her memory.

"How are you? Do you feel better after taking a breath?" Ye Qingyin asked when she saw Ye Ziyu coming back, "Where is the palace maid who went out with you?"

"Yeah, I feel much better. She must have gone out to do something busy. I didn't see her when I came back." Ye Ziyu replied.

"Oh~ Eat something quickly. You haven't eaten anything all night." Ye Qingyin said.

"Okay." Ye Ziyu picked up a piece of cake.

"Master, what should we do with those people?"

"Not a single one alive?"

"No more. The rest have committed suicide by taking poison."

"Then send it away, and leave the body of the palace maid behind."

"Yes."

Ye Ziyu, Ye Qingyin and others sat in their seats eating and drinking. Ling Bingqing wanted to come over, but couldn't move around freely due to the rules.

"Ah." Just when the music stopped, a scream came from outside.

Everyone's attention was drawn to it.

"How dare you! Who is making noise outside?" Eunuch Du beside the emperor scolded sternly.

A eunuch walked up to Eunuch Du and whispered in his ear. Eunuch Du frowned and whispered an order to the eunuch, who left.

"What happened?" the Queen asked.

"Your Majesty, a maid accidentally fell and injured her head. She bled a lot and scared the new maid. We have already made arrangements."

"It's New Year's Day, how can you be so careless?" The Queen said and waved her hand to let Eunuch Du go down.

Not long after the eunuch left, the leader of the Yulin Army came up with the eunuch in custody.

The whole place fell silent for a moment.

"Chief He, what happened?" asked Emperor Zhao.

"Your Majesty, I just saw this eunuch dealing with a corpse when I was on patrol," He Yihe replied.

"Dealing with the body? Whose body is it?"

"Judging from her clothes, she is a palace maid."

"Your Majesty, I am innocent. I didn't kill anyone. I didn't kill anyone." The eunuch kowtowed frantically to apologize.

"According to the laws of our dynasty, anyone who kills someone without reason must pay with his life, and the emperor is no exception." Ye Qingyin explained in Ye Ziyu's ear. Logically, Ye Ziyu should know these laws, but Ye Qingyin didn't know why. She felt that Ye Ziyu knew nothing about them.

"Oh~ That's quite fair." Ye Ziyu nodded.

"Take him away and hand him over to the Huizheng Division for interrogation."

"When it comes to people in the palace, no matter they are palace maids, eunuchs, palace masters or ministers, the emperor will decide whether to send them to the Dali Temple or the Huizhengsi. Ordinary people will go to the government office. The Huizhengsi is better. If they go to the Dali Temple, the methods they will use will not be something ordinary people can withstand." Ye Qingyin explained beside her.

"Oh~" Ye Ziyu nodded, "Hmm? Sister, how did you know I would ask you?" Today, Ye Ziyu really hadn't asked yet, but Ye Qingyin was explaining everything beside her.

"Because I know you will definitely ask, I will just explain it to you directly."

After Chief He took the eunuch away, he said, "My dear ministers, it's getting late today. You should go back early. We have five days off this year." Emperor Zhao raised his wine glass after saying this.

"Long live His Majesty." The ministers raised their glasses.

Emperor Zhao drank it all in one gulp. "Lord Ye, I have something important to discuss with you. Please follow me to the study."

"Your Majesty, I am a little drunk and my wife is worried about me. Can you allow me to accompany her and wait in the side hall?" Ye Zhengde said.

"Yes." Emperor Zhao said and left first.

Ye Quanyong and Ye Jiaxuan approached Ye Zhengde and said, "You take your sisters back first. Your mother and I will be back later."

"Dad, will everything be okay?" Ye Jiaxuan asked uncertainly.

"What could happen to your father? Go back quickly. A murder happened in the palace today. You must pay attention to the safety of your sisters." Ye Zhengde instructed.

"Yeah." The two brothers responded.

"General Ye, please come in." Eunuch Li came to invite.

"Thank you, Eunuch Li, for leading the way." Ye Zhengde took Jiang Xu and followed Eunuch Li.

In fact, Ye Zhengde was not drunk at all, but he knew that the emperor kept him here just to ask about Ye Ziyu, the dance teacher, and on the surface he kept him here, but in fact he was keeping her.

"Brother, second brother, are father and mother okay?" Ye Ziyu asked.

"It's okay, let's go back home first."

Several people were about to leave. "Miss Ye San, please stay." A man's voice sounded, and several people stopped and turned around.

The visitor was wearing the official uniform of the Huizheng Division. "Miss Ye San, the Division has some questions for you. Could you please come over?"

Ye Quanyong and Ye Jiaxuan stood in front of Ye Ziyu, "I wonder what my sister has done wrong?" Ye Quanyong asked.

"Commander Ye, don't get excited. I'm just asking Miss Ye San some questions. She hasn't committed any crime." said the clerk from Huizhengsi.

"The deceased you just mentioned was a palace maid, but was she the one who served me tonight?" Ye Ziyu asked.

"That's right, so please cooperate with us, Miss Ye San." The clerk from Huizhengsi made a gesture of invitation.

"Brother, second brother, and sister, you guys go back first. I'm fine. Such a serious matter as a loss of life still needs to be investigated thoroughly." Ye Ziyu said to the other three, then walked between Ye Quanyong and Ye Jiaxuan and left with the clerk from Huizhengsi.
