The legitimate daughter is reborn and cannot escape after being provoked by the tyrant

When Zhou Ruo arrived at Yinghua Palace, he happened to see Zhou Chen coming out.

The two of them met, Zhou Chen was slightly stunned, then bowed and saluted: "Greetings, Her Majesty the Imperial Concubine."

If it were usual, Zhou Ruo would definitely help him up personally and call him cousin affectionately. But today, Zhou Ruo just looked at Zhou Chen calmly and nodded lightly: "Master Zhou."

Zhou Chen stood up and was about to leave.

"Stop," Zhou Ruo called Zhou Chen and said calmly, "There is something I don't understand. Sir Zhou, please enlighten me."

Zhou Chen turned around and said, "Madam, please speak."

"You are just a maid in my palace, how can I not see you? Does Lord Zhou have any opinion about me and is targeting me deliberately?" Zhou Ruo's tone was a little aggressive.

Zhou Chen looked calm, and lowered his head slightly: "This matter is of great importance. It concerns Your Majesty and the peace between the two countries. I dare not neglect it in the slightest, and I will not deliberately target anyone. Your Majesty is worrying too much."

Zhou Ruo stared at Zhou Chen for a long while, and finally said, "It's better to be what Lord Zhou said."

Zhou Chen lowered his head and said nothing.

Seeing him like this, Zhou Ruo felt very upset and seemed to have a lot to say, but in the end, he couldn't say a single word.

She truly regarded this person as a family member and cherished him very much. It was a pity that the two of them eventually went their separate ways and could never go back to the way they were before.

Zhou Ruo closed his eyes, hiding all those complicated emotions, and said to Zhou Chen: "In this case, I will not disturb you, Lord Zhou."

Zhou Chen clasped his fists and said, "I will take my leave."

Zhou Ruo looked at the other person's back without turning back, and she realized in her heart: she had lost another loved one.

After looking for a long time, Zhou Ruo retracted his gaze, walked to the door, and said to the eunuch: "Please inform the eunuch, I want to see His Majesty."

The young eunuch was a little embarrassed and said softly, "Your Majesty, you don't know that your Majesty has been very busy recently. Apart from the important officials in the court, your Majesty will not see any outsiders."

Zhou Ruo: "But doesn't Concubine Chen still come here every day?"

The young eunuch blurted out without even thinking: "The Empress Chen is different."

Zhou Ruo didn't say anything, but his eyes were a little cold.

Lin Jiuqing can come to Yinghua Palace every day, but she, the imperial concubine, is regarded as an outsider by the people below.

The young eunuch quickly realized that he had said the wrong thing and said quickly, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. That is not what I meant."

Zhou Ruo pulled the corner of his lips and said gently: "It's okay, I know you are just following orders, and I don't want to embarrass you."

The young eunuch showed a grateful look on his face: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your consideration."

"It's just that I really have something very important to tell you," Zhou Ruo said slowly, "Please inform him for me. If His Majesty is unwilling to see me, I will not bother him."

The young eunuch looked embarrassed, thought for a moment, and whispered, "My Lady, I really can't inform you, or my life will be in danger."

"Look at the time, it should be almost time for dinner. Unless there is an accident, your majesty will return to Lanyin Palace every day to have dinner with the Concubine Chen. If the Concubine Gui does not mind the trouble, why not wait outside for a while?"

This little eunuch has shown Zhou Ruo a clear path forward.

When Zhou Ruo heard this, he nodded quickly: "Okay, thank you."

The young eunuch smiled and said, "You're welcome."

Since Zhou Ruo couldn't enter the Yinghua Palace, he had to stand in the yard and wait with his men.

She looked at the tightly closed door from afar, feeling only bitterness in her heart.

Once upon a time, when there were not so many people in the harem, she was able to frequently enter and exit the Yinghua Palace, but now she can only stand in this yard and wait.
