The hot clouds disperse and a cool breeze rises.

Finally I felt a hint of autumn coolness.

Cheng Jiuyuan was standing in front of the window when Mu Jin hurried in.

"Miss, someone has come from the palace, saying that the Queen wants to see you."

Song Lan frowned: "The young lady just came back yesterday, and the Queen summoned her early in the morning. It seems that everyone in the palace is keeping an eye on her."

Cheng Jiuyuan was still looking out the window with a smile on her face.

She was very familiar with the queen in her previous life.

Because the Crown Prince and Chu Ze were fighting to the death, the Queen and Concubine Xian were also at loggerheads. As Chu Ze's fiancée, she was often tortured by the Queen.

Cheng Jiuyuan turned around and said, "Let's go. Don't keep people waiting for too long."

"Girl, do you want to change your clothes again?"

Cheng Jiuyuan glanced down and said, "No need."

She didn't need to be liked by the Queen and her son. As long as she was decent and could not be criticized for her mistakes, that was enough.

When I arrived at the front hall, the female official waiting there was also an acquaintance from my previous life.

Meng Yue turned around, a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes, and then she bowed.

"Meet the second lady of the process."

Cheng Jiuyuan curled her lips. She was not so respectful in her previous life.

Meng Yue is a chess piece placed by Concubine Xian next to the Queen.

In her previous life, Meng Yue often slandered the queen, causing the queen to punish her.

She didn’t understand in her previous life. She was Chu Ze’s fiancée, and since Meng Yue was Concubine Xian’s person, she should help her secretly.

It was not until one day when she discovered Meng Yue secretly staring at Chu Ze's back that she understood.

In her previous life, she tolerated Meng Yue for fear of ruining the plans of Concubine Xian and her son.

In this life, let's just use her as the first choice.

"No need to be polite, let's go."

Meng Yue's eyes flashed. This Second Miss Cheng was not as unpresentable as the legend said. She was most likely going to marry into the Prince's mansion.

Cheng Jiuyuan got on the carriage, and Mu Jin and Song Lan followed the carriage on the left and right. Their every move was impeccable.

After two incense sticks of time, the carriage stopped.

"Miss Cheng, please get out of the car."

Cheng Jiuyuan got off the carriage and glanced at the towering palace gate.

"Miss Cheng, please."

Cheng Jiuyuan followed Meng Yue to the outside of Fengyi Palace.

"Miss, please wait a moment." Meng Yue said, and turned to go in.

Cheng Jiuyuan waited for a cup of tea, but no one came out.

Normally the Queen shouldn't be making things difficult for her now. I don't know if someone is instigating this or if no one is telling her.

Although it was autumn, it was only cool in the early morning. I stood outside the temple for a quarter of an hour under the sun and felt a little hot.

Just when Cheng Jiuyuan was wondering whether to fall to the ground, Meng Yue finally came out of the hall.

"Miss, the queen was changing her clothes just now. Sorry for the long time waiting. Please come in."

Cheng Jiuyuan smiled slightly and said softly, "It's okay."

Entering the hall, the place was filled with subtle fragrance and was extremely luxurious.

The queen was sitting at the top, holding a small bowl of snow lotus and lily porridge and drinking it gracefully.

Seeing her come in, he put down the porridge, touched the corner of his lips with a handkerchief, and waved his hand to signal her to leave.

Cheng Jiuyuan bowed her head and saluted respectfully: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May you live in peace and happiness."

First, there was the issue of etiquette, and the queen nodded with satisfaction.

"Get up."

"Thank you, empress."

"I don't eat humans, why are you lowering your head?"

Cheng Jiuyuan slowly raised his head.

A glimmer of joy flashed across the queen's eyes.

The little girl in the hall had a slender figure, a delicate small face, cherry lips and a beautiful nose. The most beautiful thing about her was her pair of clear and bright almond eyes with a watery glow, as bright as spring flowers and as beautiful as the autumn moon.

The beauty is non-aggressive and without any impurities.

It is indeed pure and has never been contaminated by the capital.

Seeing her innocent face, the queen was even more satisfied.

She only needs support behind her, and doesn't need her to be too smart, so as to avoid interference from external relatives in politics after the prince inherits the throne.

The queen smiled and looked a little friendlier.

"Come, come here." The queen waved at her.

Cheng Jiuyuan looked at the queen at the top, her eyes turned up, her lips were as red as blood, and her smile was like an old witch coaxing children.

Cheng Jiuyuan also raised an innocent smile and walked forward obediently.

The queen took her hand and frowned: "Why is it so cold in this weather?"

"My daughter has been weak since she was young. It's just a disease of physical weakness."

The queen saw that she was not as hesitant as the rumors said, but she was still worried.

"It just so happens that you have entered the palace. I will summon two imperial physicians to come and see you."

"Your Majesty, there is no need to mobilize so many troops. I am afraid."

The queen smiled gently and ordered Meng Yue, "Go and call two imperial doctors."

"Yes."

The queen pulled Cheng Jiuyuan to look left and right, and the more she looked, the more satisfied she became.

He asked her how old she was and some irrelevant questions, and Cheng Jiuyuan answered them one by one.

"I like you very much, you should come to the palace often..."

Cheng Jiuyuan was a martial artist. He heard footsteps outside the palace and seemed to mention "Xianfei".

The Queen was just saying how much she liked her, but she saw Cheng Jiuyuan suddenly breathing rapidly and her face turned pale.

"You...what's wrong with you?" the queen was shocked.

Cheng Jiuyuan covered his chest with his hands, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.

She saw a group of people appearing at the entrance of the hall from the corner of her eye. She spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.

The queen was so frightened that she was at a loss and screamed.

As soon as Concubine Xian entered the room, she saw Cheng Jiuyuan spit out blood and fell to the ground, her life or death unknown.

She was shocked at first, then ecstatic.

"Oh my! Go and have a look, why is Miss Cheng vomiting blood when she is fine?"

"Empress, you knew that Miss Cheng was not in good health, but you still punished her and made her stand for so long."

The queen's face darkened when she heard this.

This incident happened too suddenly and was witnessed by Concubine Xian by chance, so it could not be concealed even if she wanted to.

"Don't spit on others!"

The Queen and Concubine Xian were at loggerheads, and the two imperial doctors quickly asked the palace maids to help the person to the imperial concubine's couch for emergency treatment.

After feeling the pulse, the two looked at each other and their faces darkened.

The Queen didn't bother to argue with Concubine Xian and hurried forward.

"how?"

The virtuous concubine was happy to watch the fun.

She was also going to summon Cheng Jiuyuan into the palace today, but she didn't expect the Queen to get there first.

When she heard that the Queen had summoned the imperial physician, she came to see whether Cheng Jiuyuan was sick or not.

Unexpectedly, there was such a surprise waiting for her.

At the same time, she felt a little scared. She stood in the sun for only a quarter of an hour before she vomited blood and fainted.

If she summoned Cheng Jiuyuan into the palace first, wouldn't she become the scapegoat?

"Miss Cheng is overworked. Her heart meridian is damaged. She needs to be carefully cared for. Otherwise..."

The Queen and Consort Xian were both so shocked that their mouths could not close.

After just standing for a short while, he was overtired and his heart meridians were damaged.

This guy is so weak, what is he doing here?

If my son married such a fragile Liuli, he would be worried all day long. If he died accidentally, he might even become enemies with the Xiangfu.

"Then quickly prescribe medicine and wake her up!"

The emperor regretted it so much that his intestines turned green. Why did he get involved in such trouble for no reason?

"Yes."

The two imperial doctors prescribed medicine and the palace maids hurried to boil it.

At this time, a report came from outside the hall.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

The virtuous concubine raised the corners of her lips, and the queen glared at her fiercely.

This bitch is taking advantage of others' misfortune!

"What's going on?" Emperor Zhaolie saw the hall was full of people as soon as he came in.

"Your concubine, your concubine..." The queen lowered her head, not knowing how to start.

It was so unfair, she didn't do anything to embarrass Cheng Jiuyuan at all.

"You know she is weak, as the queen, why do you make things difficult for a weak woman like her?"

"I don't have..."

The virtuous concubine curled her lips. Now the empress and the prime minister failed to get married and became enemies first.

Of course, she also gave up the idea of ​​letting her son marry Cheng Jiuyuan.

At this moment, the person on the couch suddenly burst into a violent coughing fit.

"Awake! Awake!" said the queen happily.

Cheng Jiuyuan finally stopped coughing and woke up slowly, his eyes confused.

"I...what happened to my servant?"

The queen's smile froze.

What else? She didn't want to get involved with this sick guy at all.

"The imperial physician said that you were too tired, so you vomited blood and fainted." The virtuous concubine said with a smile.

Cheng Jiuyuan seemed to have just noticed Emperor Zhaolie standing beside Concubine Xian, and quickly struggled to stand up and kowtow.

"Okay, lie down and don't faint again." The emperor frowned as he looked at the person on the couch who was about to die at any moment.

Cheng Jiuyuan lowered her head and whispered, "I am not that weak, I just stood in the sun for too long."

"Don't wrongly accuse me! When did I let you stand under the sun?"

Hearing this, Concubine Xian put away her smile. She didn't expect that the fire would burn her.

Meng Yue, who was standing behind the queen, turned even paler.

Cheng Jiuyuan sneered in his heart.

Laugh, why aren't you laughing anymore?

Concubine Xian immediately said, "Well, now that Miss Cheng Er is awake, leave the palace quickly. The Prime Minister is still waiting for you at the palace gate."

She placed many chess pieces around the queen, but only Meng Yue survived and crawled to the queen's side, becoming her confidant.

Meng Yue, you must not give up.

But the queen did not intend to let it go.

"You just said that you stood in the sun for a long time?"

Cheng Jiuyuan raised his head and glanced at Meng Yue with a puzzled look on his face.

"Official Meng asked me to wait outside, saying that the queen was changing clothes..."

As she spoke, her voice became smaller and smaller.

The queen gritted her teeth and her eyes suddenly became cold.

Meng Yue was shaking like a sieve.

She looked at Concubine Xian for help, and Concubine Xian secretly gave her a warning look. Meng Yue's face instantly became desperate.

Emperor Zhaolie looked deeply at Cheng Jiuyuan, who had an innocent face.

"Go and have a look at Miss Cheng Er. If there is no serious problem, you can leave the palace."

Two imperial doctors came forward and took the patient's pulse.

"Second Miss Cheng must be well taken care of and not overwork herself."

"Thank you, uncle doctor."

Cheng Jiuyuan answered obediently.

At this time, Hibiscus and Indigo came in from outside the hall, their faces filled with worry.

"Then I will take my leave."

Emperor Zhaolie hummed.

Cheng Jiuyuan left behind a mess and, supported by two maids, walked out of Fengyi Palace weakly but unrestrainedly.

Emperor Zhaolie scolded the empress a few words, then turned and left with Concubine Xian.

After everyone left, the queen suddenly turned around and approached Meng Yue step by step with a sinister look on her face.

Meng Yue fell to the ground...
