The legitimate daughter is reborn and the fake Bai Lian is completely panicked

Shen Mi was taken by Murong Che straight to the Yongshou Palace where the retired emperor was.

Soon, the Queen heard that she and Murong Che had entered the palace together.

In Fengyi Palace, the queen, who was originally worried about the crown prince, almost dropped the teacup in her hand when she heard about Shen Mi and Murong Che.

She sat upright in the chair, holding the cup tightly in her hand, and looked back at the nanny beside her.

"What you said is true?"

The nanny took a step closer and said, "Your Majesty, the news in the palace is that today Prince Rui is bringing Miss Shen to the palace to see the Emperor."

"I'm afraid that the second young lady of the Shen family has been with Prince Rui for a long time."

The queen looked coldly and put down the teacup in her hand.

"Murong Che has never been interested in women, so how come Shen Mi suddenly appeared?"

"Doesn't the Shen family have a grudge against Murong Che?"

"Shen Mi's uncle Jiang Xuan is about to return to Yanjing. If Shen Mi is allowed to marry Murong Che, it will probably be more difficult for Jing'er to deal with Murong Che in the future."

The queen's eyes changed slightly, and she was silent for a while. She picked up the hot tea on the table and took another sip.

"It's time for me to go to the underground prison of the East Palace."

"Now that Murong Che has a woman, he has a weak spot."

"Shen Mi may be his weak spot. I must find a way to control Murong Che."

She turned her head and looked at the nanny beside her. "Last time, I asked Nanny Zhao to go out of the palace to find out about the hairpin. Did she get any clues?"

Nanny Zhang shook her head and said, "My Lady, I will go down and ask. Bring Nanny Zhao here."

The queen nodded. "It's been so long and there's still no reply. Go call Madam Zhao."

"Yes, madam?"

Nanny Zhang turned around and walked out of Fengyi Palace. After a while, she brought Nanny Zhao, who was in charge of purchasing.

Nanny Zhao pursed her lips tightly, followed Nanny Zhang, and slowly walked into Fengyi Palace.

She walked up to the queen with an emerald green hairpin in her hand.

Then he bowed respectfully to the queen, "This old servant pays respect to Her Majesty the Queen."

"Long live the Queen."

The queen calmed herself down and put on a kind smile.

"Madam Zhao, there's no need to be so polite. Since you left the palace today, have you asked about this hairpin?"

Aunt Zhao nodded and said, "Your Majesty, I did ask around."

"It's just that the hairpins in your Majesty's painting are sold everywhere in Yanjing City. There are quite a lot of them. It's really like looking for a needle in a haystack."

"I know that there are five shops selling this kind of hairpin in South Lane alone, not to mention other places."

"There are many women who bought hairpins, and there is no way to find out who these women are."

The queen's face was slightly gloomy, she frowned, revealing a hint of displeasure.

Who is the person who knows her secret?

If this person is not eliminated, it will always be a source of worry for her.

She sat upright on the chair and said in a cold voice: "Since we can't get the list of girls who bought the hairpins, forget it."

"You go back first."

Madam Zhao nodded respectfully, "Yes, Madam."

"Then I will go back first."

After paying her respects, Nanny Zhao left Fengyi Palace.

Looking at Nanny Zhao's back as she left, the Queen sighed deeply.

"My lady, now this clue is broken."

"Why don't we ask the Dali Temple? They will surely be able to find out something."

The queen had a cold expression on her face and reached out to pick up the teacup. She seemed calm and composed, but in fact she was extremely angry.

Not only did she almost lose her reputation after the Wanpukuji Temple was set on fire, but even His Majesty began to doubt her.

She raised her eyebrows slightly, "Ask the Dali Temple Minister to go to the East Palace and see me."

"I will definitely be able to find clues from the information he gave me."

The maid nodded, "Yes, Madam, I will go right away."

……

Inside the Yongshou Palace.

Shen Mi pursed her lips and followed Murong Che into the hall.

There were wisps of Buddhist incense burning in the hall. When Shen Mi arrived, he just saw the emperor walking out of the inner room.

The retired emperor's hair and beard were gray, but he looked energetic.

Although he has a kind face, he gives people an indescribable sense of majesty and dominance.

When she arrived, she immediately bowed and said, "Your servant Shen Mi pays respect to the Emperor."

"Live a thousand years, ...

The emperor sat on the chair, looking at her quietly, then looked at Murong Che beside Shen Mi.

Then he asked, "Are you the second daughter of Marquis Pingyang, Shen Mi?"

Shen Mi nodded, "Your Majesty, it is you, my humble servant."

He saw the girl kneeling on the ground, with her head down and not daring to look at him, her delicate hands still tightly clutching his dress.

The emperor smiled suddenly: "Miss Shen, are you afraid of me?"

"Why do you keep your head down?"

Shen Mi shook her head and raised her head, "Replying to the Emperor, I have only admiration and respect for you. If you are talking about fear, I am not afraid."

The emperor sneered, "You are quite eloquent. Stand up."

After hearing this, Shen Mi stood up and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

After she stood up, Murong Che pulled her to sit on the chair opposite.

Murong Che then sat beside her, looked at the emperor, and smiled wickedly.

"Grandfather, you have seen such a person."

"Is there anything else you want to tell your grandson?"

The emperor put down the teacup in his hand and looked quietly at the couple sitting opposite him, some scenes from his youth emerging in his mind.

He laughed and said, "You villain, did you force the girl to follow you?"

"But she volunteered?"

Murong Che curled his lips and a low, hoarse laugh escaped from his throat.

"Grandfather, what you said..."

The emperor's eyes fell on Shen Mi, "Miss Shen, is this Che'er threatening you to marry him?"

Shen Mi shook her head repeatedly, then raised her eyes to look at Murong Che, "Replying to the Emperor, the Fourth Master did not coerce me."

"So you're attracted to him?"

"Aren't you afraid of him?"

Shen Mi pursed her lips, clenched the teacup in her hand, and said with a slight smile: "I was afraid at first."

"Although I am afraid now, the Fourth Master has his own characteristics."

The emperor laughed out loud.

"Well, I am quite old now, and I hope you two can get married and give birth to a little grandson soon."

The words of the retired emperor made Shen Mi blush instantly.

"Last time, Che'er tricked the jade disc away from me, and I never thought of adding your name to it."

"You are still in mourning. Although you cannot marry Che'er, you are already in the family tree and are a member of our Murong clan."

As he spoke, the retired emperor gestured to Eunuch Zhang beside him.

"Take out the gold medal from the lonely pavilion."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Eunuch Zhang turned around respectfully and took out a gold medal from the pavilion.

"This is what I gave you. If you get hurt around Che'er in the future, you can use it."

Shen Mi pursed her lips, her eyes fell on the gold medal, and then looked at Murong Che.

Murong Che nodded, then she stood up, walked to the side of the retired emperor, and took the gold medal from his hand.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

However, why is this gold medal used on the Fourth Master?

The Fourth Master and her are still in good terms with each other, so how could it be...

Could it be that the emperor gave her the gold medal to protect her from the crown prince and the queen, and he deliberately mentioned the Fourth Master?

Shen Mi took the gold medal and carefully put it into her sleeve, then looked at Murong Che.

Murong Che curled his lips, "Grandfather, you gave this girl a gold medal to prevent your grandson from hurting her?"

The Emperor rolled his eyes at him and said, "This little girl will always be dangerous if she stays with you. Give her the gold medal. Maybe it will be useful in the future."

"Thank you, Grandfather Emperor."

At noon, food was served in Yongshou Hall.

The Emperor looked at Murong Che and Shen Mi and said gently, "You two, accompany Grandpa Emperor for dinner."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Shen Mi accompanied Murong Che and the retired emperor for dinner. She didn't say a word during the meal and just looked at the grandfather and grandson.

However, neither of them spoke during the meal.

This may be the royal etiquette.

The last time I had dinner with the Fourth Master at Yipintang, he also didn't speak.

She was just about to speak when Murong Che said something.

'Don't talk while eating, and don't talk while sleeping.'

Now that I think about it, Murong Che should have remembered the words of the retired emperor.

After the two of them accompanied the retired emperor for dinner, Shen Mi bowed to him, said goodbye, and followed Murong Che out of Yongshou Palace.

Eunuch Zhang, who was beside the Emperor, came out and said, "Grandfather, it is really rare for Miss Shen to be liked by the Fourth Master."

"In the whole of Yanjing, how many people can His Royal Highness Prince Rui care about?"

The emperor smiled softly, "It's not a good thing."

"Maybe, that's what hurt her."

He sighed, "This girl seems to be quite clever."

"Giving her the gold medal is to save her life."

"Now Che'er is being watched by various forces, and I'm afraid she will become Che'er's weak spot."
