The Queen Mother jumped from the tower, and His Majesty was reborn with fear

The night is as cool as water, and the moon is deep

After Yu Jinzhi finished her bath, she sat in front of the window in a single layer of clothes and started reading the storybook she had not finished reading.

"Princess, it's getting late. It won't be good for your eyes if you continue looking like this. You'd better go to bed early." Qingyu came over and gave some advice.

Yu Jinzhi, however, was watching with great interest. How could she show any intention of taking a break?

"Where is His Majesty?" Yu Jinzhi asked.

"There are still candles on in your Majesty's tent. I heard that several ministers have been summoned. I'm afraid they have official business to attend to." Qingyu replied.

Yu Jinzhi didn't think much of what she heard at first, because she was just asking casually, but when she heard that Xie Yuxiu had summoned the ministers today, she raised her head.

She had already felt something was wrong today, so she was naturally more alert when she heard this. Why would Minister Xuan suddenly discuss official business so late at night?

"Have you found out why?" Yu Jinzhi asked, not even wanting to continue reading the book in her hand.

Qingyu shook his head. This kind of thing was certainly not something they could find out at will.

Yu Jinzhi seemed to be thinking about something. After hesitating for a long time, she finally spoke: "Change clothes. I want to go to His Majesty's tent."

"Shall we go there now? Princess, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for His Majesty to go there..." Qingyu was still a little worried.

"Change clothes." Yu Jinzhi didn't say any extra words and seemed to have made up her mind.

Qingyu said no more after seeing this. After helping Yu Jinzhi change her clothes, they went to Xie Yuxiu's tent together.

However, when leaving, Yu Jinzhi also picked up the notebook that she had not finished reading.

"Greetings, Princess." The guard at the door of Xie Yuxiu hurriedly saluted when he saw Yu Jinzhi coming.

Yu Jinzhi was not arrogant: "Your Majesty, it's so late, haven't you rested yet?" she asked.

"In reply to your question, His Majesty is discussing important matters with several ministers, so he has not rested yet." The guard replied.

Yu Jinzhi nodded and glanced at the guards. If it were before, they would have let her in directly, but today...

It seems that Xie Yuxiu is indeed talking to these ministers in there...

"Princess, do you want to see His Majesty?" the guard asked.

This was not very convenient, so Yu Jinzhi did not directly ask to see Xie Yuxiu, but just replied: "Since Your Majesty has important matters to attend to, I will not disturb you."

After saying that, Yu Jinzhi turned around and left. Qingyu, who had been following her, wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't.

only……

Yu Jinzhi did not go far, but went to the side and waited, where the guards could not see her.

"Princess?" Qingyu was also full of doubts.

"Just wait here." Yu Jinzhi replied.

Why would she wait here for no reason? Just now she was thinking, her princess came here specifically to see His Majesty, how could she not go in? Now it seems that she was just waiting here?

"Princess, it's too cold outside. Why don't you go back first? Or should I ask them to go in and tell them?" Qingyu was still a little worried.

But Yu Jinzhi still shook her head: "No, just wait."

"......Yes" Qingyu closed her mouth.

About two quarters of an hour later, Yu Jinzhi was already hugging her arms due to the cold outside. Finally, there was movement in Xie Yuxiu's tent again, and several ministers came out of the tent.

Yu Jinzhi recognized these people, most of them were military commanders... and some were from the Imperial Guards. Thinking about what Xie Yuxiu had said to her today, which delayed the winter hunt, so... was something really going to happen?

What exactly did Xie Yuxiu want to do? Or was there someone trying to take advantage of this opportunity to do something?

For some reason, Yu Jinzhi felt more and more uneasy.

"Princess, do you want to go over?" Qingyu asked.

"No need." Yu Jinzhi replied.

Qingyu was just about to speak when she saw Wang Yi walking towards her not far away.

"Your servant greets the princess. She must be waiting outside, right? His Majesty invites her in." Wang Yi walked over with a smile on his face.

How did he see it? How did he know that the princess and he had been standing outside for so long? Qingyu looked confused, but said nothing.

"Your Majesty, are you done with your work?" Yu Jinzhi asked.

"My Lady, His Majesty has nothing to do today," Wang Yi replied.

Yu Jinzhi followed Wang Yi back to Xie Yuxiu's tent. Xie Yuxiu had already changed into a set of light clothes.

As soon as she entered, Xie Yuxiu looked up at her.

Because she had been standing outside for too long, Yu Jinzhi's face turned a little red from the cold.

"Are you stupid? It's late at night, the dew is heavy, and the weather is so cold outside. Why are you standing there like an idiot? Don't you know how to go back and have a rest?" Xie Yuxiu accused him as soon as they met.

But if you listen carefully, there is no real intention to blame.

"I couldn't sleep, so I wanted to come and see His Majesty, but I didn't expect that His Majesty was in a meeting. I was afraid of disturbing you, so I told them that I would go back first, but I actually wanted to wait and see. I thought you would finish soon." Yu Jinzhi said, holding the notebook in her hand.

Xie Yuxiu looked at Yu Jinzhi disapprovingly, but he didn't say anything else. He waved at Yu Jinzhi: "Come here."

Yu Jinzhi walked forward obediently, and Xie Yuxiu held her arm, which was wrinkled so tightly that it could pinch a mosquito to death.

"Why is it so cold? Do you know that you are not in good health? What if you get sick standing outside in such a cold day? Feel your hand, how is it different from a piece of ice?" Xie Yuxiu said as he pulled her into his arms, then put her hand on his chest and put her book aside.

"I didn't expect you would be busy until so late." Yu Jinzhi looked a little aggrieved when she said this.

"So you are blaming me for being busy too late now?" Xie Yuxiu asked, but his tone was not so blunt.

"Your Majesty, don't be too tired..." Yu Jinzhi did not answer the question directly.

Xie Yuxiu was actually happy because of this: "So you are caring about me?"

"I just feel that being too tired is bad for my health." Yu Jinzhi still did not give a direct answer.

Xie Yuxiu thought she was just shy and didn't press the issue.

"So why did you come to see me so late at night? Is it because you can't sleep?" Xie Yuxiu was still quite concerned about this issue.

He was discussing matters with the ministers just now, and he knew that Yu Jinzhi had arrived at the beginning, but because the content of the discussion was related to Xie Zhao, he did not let her in immediately.

Later, when they heard that she was leaving, no one tried to stop her. As a result, after a long while, the secret guard outside came to report that she had been waiting outside for quarter of an hour.
