Chapter 1205: Waiting for more than a year?

Chu Yan wanted to turn his eyes to see Bai Zhi's reaction, but he didn't dare, because he was afraid that Bai Zhi would also be looking at him now, and the turning of his eyes would reveal his secrets.

His face turned black as he said: "You came just in time, I don't need to send another person to spread the word. You can leave the palace today, and you don't need to enter the palace again."

Zhuo Xi'er's face turned pale. The pitiful expression she was pretending to be immediately turned into real pity: "Your Majesty, you must be joking, right? How can you let Xi'er leave? Xi'er will not leave, Xi'er wants to stay by the Emperor's side for the rest of her life. Xi'er—"

"Shut up!" Chu Yan didn't want to listen anymore, he seemed to have felt Bai Zhi's sharp eyes resting on his face.

Zhuo Xi'er closed her mouth, but it was only for a moment, and immediately she chattered endlessly: "Does the emperor, not like Xi'er? Is there something wrong with Xi'er? Your majesty—"

Chu Yan was afraid that she would say something out of the blue. There was nothing between him and her. But when she spoke, it sounded like he, Chu Yan, had become a heartless person.

"Eunuch Fu, what are you still doing? Didn't you hear what I said?"

Eunuch Fu was a wise person. He had long wanted to pull Zhuo Xi'er away, but seeing that Miss Bai was listening with gusto, he didn't dare to step forward and make a move.

But now that he got the emperor's order, he immediately waved to the two eunuchs behind: "Why don't you ask Miss Zhuo to leave?"

The two eunuchs rushed forward, one on the left and one on the right, holding Zhuo Xi'er, and almost carried her away from the pavilion.

Bai Zhi never spoke from the beginning to the end.

She thought that this girl was not a concubine in the harem. After all, it is impossible for a woman who has become a concubine to wear such a hairstyle and clothes.

Unexpectedly, although she was not a concubine in this palace, she was a woman who has a deep relationship with Chu Yan.

Eunuch Fu retreated sensibly, and the palace maids serving at the side also retreated under Eunuch Fu's call, and there were only two people left in the pavilion.

Bai Zhi stared sideways at Chu Yan, and said in a low voice, "Tell me, what's going on with you and this Miss Zhuo?" Someone swore in front of her the day before yesterday, saying that during the past two years as the emperor, even though the harem had a lot of women, he has never looked at them, let alone stayed in anyone's palace.

Chu Yan dryly smiled, took a sip of the tea on the table in front of him, put down the teacup, and felt something wrong, how could he drink tea so easily as a blind man?

Stealing a look at Bai Zhi, he saw her eyes were elsewhere. She didn't seem to notice him, so he was relieved and continued to pretend to be blind,

"Well, this Zhuo Xi'er is the daughter of the Marquis of Weiyuan. The master of the Zhuo family and the Empress Dowager are cousins. This Zhuo Xi'er often enter the palace when she was young, and she was quite favored by the Empress Dowager. Last year, when Empress Dowager got sick, Marquis Weiyuan proposed to let Zhuo Xi'er enter the palace to take care of her."

Seeing that Chu Yan didn't continue, Bai Zhi raised an eyebrow and asked: "She has been serving the sick for more than a year?"

Chu Yan coughed twice again, with an unnatural expression on his face, "You also know that Empress Dowager looks like someone who always needs someone to serve her around, and it's not a big deal for more than a year."

"Looking at her appearance, I'm afraid she's a year or two older than me. At this age, she should be married!" She suddenly remembered something. On the way back from the United Kingdom, she asked Maser Wu some things.

Master Wu said at the time that the daughter of Marquis Weiyuan had entered the palace intending to become the empress.

It turned out to be this Zhuo Xi'er.

She never doubted Chu Yan's sincerity towards her, especially after meeting Zhuo Xi'er.
