Chapter Thirty-Two: A King’s Heart Is Like Iron (7)
"This is natural." He Bayu said, calling He Wu in again and asking him to hand over all the witnesses and evidence to Queen Jiao.
However, Lu Gui refused to hand over the demon pill, saying that it would easily attract dirt and would be too dangerous for ordinary people to keep.
However, he still promised the queen that when she needed this physical evidence in the future, he would bring the demon pill with him to testify.
In just a few words, Empress Jiao asked He Bayu to take Concubine Zheng away with her witnesses and physical evidence. It was enough to show that this empress was still respected by him.
But Ah Jiu's thoughts had already flown back to her previous life, recalling her only meeting with Queen Jiao, but she didn't even realize that Queen Jiao walked in front of her.
When she noticed, Empress Jiao had been standing in front of her for a while. When she was hesitating whether to greet her or not, she heard Empress Jiao smile, nod to her and say:
"She is indeed a rare beauty. No wonder His Majesty loves you so much. However, you must not let down His Majesty's love. You must take good care of him!"
When she said these words, the smile on her face was always there, like a kind big sister next door.
However, when she came closer to Ah Jiu and tucked the broken hair on her cheek behind her ears, she narrowed her eyes with a smile and whispered:
"However, similarly, if my sister fails to take good care of His Majesty, I will also hold my sister accountable!"
Ah Jiu was startled, and suddenly replied loudly: "Yes, I will definitely listen to the Queen's words, take good care of Your Majesty, and will not let the Queen be held accountable for this!"
Ah Jiu's voice was so loud that it was difficult for everyone present to hear clearly. He Bayu frowned and walked over to the two of them: "What's wrong? You don't ask the guilty but not the guilty."
"Haha..." Seeing He Bayu coming over, Queen Jiao looked at him with a smile again and said, "Who said Sister Shangguan is a nerd? I see, Sister Shangguan is the smartest person in the harem...
Your Majesty, tell me, am I right?"
He Bayu was stunned for a moment, glanced at Ah Jiu from the corner of his eye, then smiled and said to Queen Jiao:
"It's just a bit of cleverness. If the queen likes her, let her go to your place to walk around more in the future, so that she can learn a little bit of the queen's virtuous and wise nature."
"Really?" Queen Jiao smiled again, "It would be a blessing for me to have such a beauty to accompany me every day. I'm afraid His Majesty won't be able to part with her."
"How come."
He Bayu's expression turned grim, knowing that the queen was complaining that he didn't go to her place too often, and then he smiled and said:
"The queen is joking. I heard that you are ****ing with the queen now, and you don't have time to do anything else. However, the queen is in a better mood under your care. I haven't visited the queen for a long time, so why don't we go to see the queen tomorrow morning?
Let’s go together to pay our respects to our mother.”
"The Queen Mother has also been talking about you. If Your Majesty comes to see her, she will be very happy."
Queen Jiao nodded gently, looking like a good wife and mother.
"Then what are you waiting for? Why don't I go to the Queen's place today and go to Fengqi Palace of the Queen Mother tomorrow?"
He Boyu said with a smile, already holding Queen Jiao's hand and pulling her out of the palace.
When he reached the gate of the palace, he seemed to have just remembered Ah Jiu, turned around and said to her: "Jiu'er, please have a good rest tonight. The Queen will definitely give you an explanation for this matter, so don't worry!"
