Emperor Wen Zhao’s earth-shaking roar frightened Ji Jinyou so much that she trembled.

　　She turned around hurriedly, and ran back to the side hall with her short legs. She hid behind the door, clinging to the edge of the door with her two little hands, and poked out half of her head, staring with wide eyes, observing secretly.

　　A while ago, there was an assassination in the palace. A group of assassins were found and His Majesty ordered them all to be beheaded on the spot. It was really that when the emperor was angry, blood flowed like a river.

　　During that period, the entire palace was in a state of panic. Concubine Ru was so scared that she closed the door of Miaoyunxuan and no one was allowed to go out unless it was absolutely necessary. She did not dare to go out for several days.

　　Ji Jinyou was worried. What was His Majesty talking about this time that made him so angry?

　　Unlike Ji Jinyou’s uneasiness, the Empress was originally flustered, but when she heard His Majesty’s roar, her expression relaxed and she stopped immediately.

　　Liang Quan, the eunuch beside the emperor, heard the Empress’s panicked cry and rushed in: “Empress, what’s wrong?”

　　The Empress smiled dignifiedly and gently and waved her hand, “It’s all right, go down.”

　　Liang Quan was stunned, but didn’t ask any more questions. He bowed and replied, then retreated.

　　Ji Jinyou was puzzled. Why was His Majesty so furious, but the Empress said it was okay?

　　But on second thought, since His Majesty can still roar so loudly, there is definitely no need to see a royal physician.

　　The Seventh Princess and the Eighth Princess also heard the noise outside. They did not go out but followed Xiaojiu’s example, leaning on the door frame, one on the left and one on the right, and sticking half of their heads out to look outside.

　　The Seventh Princess pulled at the little girl’s hair and asked in a low voice, “Xiaojiu, what happened to our mother and father?”

　　Ji Jinyou shook his little head: “Youyou doesn’t know.”

　　As soon as she finished speaking, the imperial concubine lowered her head, covered her face, and hurriedly walked out from the inner room.

　　Ji Jinyou originally thought that the Imperial Concubine was crying because of the emperor’s scolding, but unexpectedly, she took a few steps, took her hands off her face, and actually had a smile on her face.

　　Ji Jinyou was stunned. What’s going on? Are you so happy after being scolded?

　　She walked up to the Empress, smiling happily, and whispered, “Sister, we’ve passed this test.”

　　The Empress glared at her and said, “You better be more careful. How dare you say that?”

　　”What do you think I want to say? I’m just thinking that if I don’t say it today…” The imperial concubine didn’t care.

　　The Empress grabbed her hand, interrupted her, and then motioned her to look at the side hall.

　　The Imperial Concubine turned around and saw three heads lying on the side hall door, listening with their ears perked up.

　　She frowned and said fiercely, “Let them in.”

　　But the little one only retracted his head, leaving only his little tuft of hair sticking out, while the two older ones were laughing shamelessly and were not listening at all.

　　The Imperial Concubine glared at the two careless people and whispered in the Empress’s ear, “If I don’t tell Your Majesty today, it would be even more troublesome if Your Majesty finds out later.”

　　Empress: “That’s too risky.”

　　Just as the two were about to say more, they heard His Majesty’s roar from the inner room: “Where is the Empress?”

　　”I am here,” the Empress responded loudly, then lowered her voice and said to the imperial concubine, “You should go back quickly.”

　　”I still want to listen… to the conversation.” The imperial concubine raised her hand and pointed lightly at the little heads that were popping up little by little on the side hall door. She really didn’t want to leave.

　　”Go back quickly. I’m going in.” The Empress glared at her and turned to go into the inner room.

　　The Imperial Concubine was so anxious that she took two steps after her: “Then persuade His Majesty not to invite anyone else today. Wait until he is willing to see me, and then invite them together.”

　　The Empress ignored her and walked into the inner room.

　　The Imperial Concubine waved at the three little heads and said, “Okay, you guys can have fun. I’m going back now.” With that, she walked out.

　　Ji Jinyou raised her head and looked at the Seventh Princess, and said in a low voice: “Seventh Sister, what happened to our father, the emperor, the Empress, and our Imperial mother?”

　　The Seventh Princess shook her head. Ji Jinyou turned her little head to look at the Eighth Princess, and the Eighth Princess also shook her head.

　　When the Empress walked in, she saw Emperor Wen Zhao sitting on a chair with a dark face.

　　She walked over and advised gently: “Your Majesty, how about we wait a little longer?”

　　Your Majesty has just been angered by her and the Imperial Noble Consort. If you call everyone here now, you might get angry again if you hear something stimulating later.

　　The Empress didn’t explain what she meant, but Emperor Wen Zhao knew what she meant. He thought about it and nodded: “I’ll do as you say for now.”

　　The Empress breathed a sigh of relief.

　　Emperor Wen Zhao said again: “Go and call Xiao Jiu, just call her.”

　　The Empress did as she was told and went out to bring Ji Jinyou in.

　　Ji Jinyou didn’t know what had just happened. Seeing that the emperor still had a gloomy face, she leaned tightly on the Empress’s thigh and secretly hid back.

　　Upon seeing this, the Empress winked at Emperor Wen Zhao, indicating that he had frightened the child.

　　Emperor Wen Zhao wiped his face with his hand, then showed a kind smile that an old father should have: “Xiao Jiu, you stay with your father today.”

　　This unprecedented fatherly love that came out of nowhere made Ji Jinyou even more uneasy, and she took another small step behind the Empress’s legs: [System help me, His Majesty’s smile is so scary, do you know why he kept me here? ]
