Yue Ye indifferently swept a glance at her, her gaze was as clear as ice, and a chill appeared in the originally serious Cabinet. Bai Yuqi's heart was startled, but he kept quiet and took half a step back.

Yue Ye's gaze swept over them, landing on the top of Prime Minister Bai 'hat, which had its head lowered, and said: "Prime Minister Bai, this antidote is really timely, shouldn't I reward you greatly?" The meaning of his words was full of ridicule. Only God knew what kind of anger was hidden in his heart.

Prime Minister Bai lowered his body hurriedly and replied humbly, "As the mother of a nation and the biological son of this humble subject, it is this humble subject's responsibility to cure the empress's poison! This humble subject does not dare to accept rewards. "

"Since you don't want to be rewarded with Prime Minister Bai, then let's return to the corruption medicine and rest early. Just don't wait for the empress's antidote to come next month." Yue Ye turned her body slightly, letting out a dim light that fell on his bulky body, as her slightly low profile became as illusory as a shadow. A kind of fatal charm was born out of nowhere, causing Bai Yuqi to be dumbstruck.

"This official will definitely urge the alchemist to properly develop the antidote for a month. I won't dare to delay any longer!" The meaning of the Prime Minister Bai was respectful, and only the black eyes under the hat flashed with a strange light. Because the official's hat was pressed down extremely low, it did not allow others to see it.

After Prime Minister Bai left, Bai Yuqi turned to Yue Ye and begged her to stay at Jing Yang Palace to wait upon Xue Fu. Yue Ye, who was already filled with rage, knew that she did not have good intentions. A cold expression appeared on his face as he said, "There are many servants in Jing Yang Palace, so there's no need to trouble Qi Fei."

Bai Yuqi was disappointed, but even more so, he was jealous. He hatefully swept a glance at Xue Fu who was inside the Shuo Yang Wei and left, and just as she took a step out of Jing Yang Palace, a cold voice sounded unexpectedly from behind her, "Wait!"

Bai Yuqi was ecstatic, he turned back and looked at Yue Ye, "Your majesty!"

Yue Ye's voice eased a little, but her expression didn't change much. Taking a deep breath, she said, "Stay with her. This Emperor has matters to attend to and will be returning a few days later."

"Chenqie commands!" Bai Yuqi was overjoyed, immediately accepting the order. Yue Ye returned to the Cabinet, opened up the curtain and stared blankly at the unconscious Xue Fu, reaching out her hand to hold onto her small hand, gently kissing her lips. This appearance, this body, he had seen many times before. However, he still did not grow tired of it, as if he wanted to carve every single detail into his mind.

Looking at her infatuated look, it was hard to make Bai Yuqi, who was outside the pavilion, feel like she was pierced by needles. The feeling of being pampered by others must be very beautiful, but it was a pity that she had never been pampered by a man like this since she was young. The life of a harem that she had wanted to live was now being taken care of by Xue Fu. When even the yufei was unable to do anything to her, she could only endure it even more!

Yue Ye left two hours later. Because of Bai Yuqi's special status, all the female servants and eunuchs in Jing Yang Palace were submissive to her. He didn't even dare to speak loudly, afraid that she would punish everyone for their crimes if she got angry.

After Yue Ye left, Bai Yuqi sent everyone to the courtyard, and stood by the side of the door to watch Xue Fu. As the wind blew, the tent rose and fell like waves, causing Xue Fu who was within the tent to feel as if he was in a dream, as if he was immersed in a celestial mirror. That pale and peaceful sleeping face had a rare serenity to it. Those pale lips had just been kissed by Yue Ye!

The embroidered shoes moved slightly as Bai Yuqi moved forward, dragging the long palace dress as he floated towards the front of the tent like a lonely spirit. Her slender, jade-like fingers held up the beautiful gown, making Xue Fu's haggard appearance that was so easy to see clearly before her eyes.

"Bai Xue Fu, he really loves you … He can't bear to see you die. " Her voice was so soft that only she could hear it clearly, but it was as cruel and cold as a ghost. "Is it your face he loves?"

The silk handkerchief gently caressed Xue Fu's peaceful sleeping face, the face that made her grit her teeth in hatred. She wanted to slash her sword at him. Without this beautiful face, would anyone love?

After the incident with Bai Yining, she understood clearly the man's love for beauty. Who would want a woman whose appearance was ruined?

As the empress of a country, she could not be a woman who did not even have a face, so she was suddenly looking forward to the coming days. When Xue Fu lost his face, what could she still hold on for?

"Is this why you want to stay?" A cold voice suddenly sounded from outside the pavilion, low and indifferent. That familiar voice that he could not hear every day! Bai Yuqi's body suddenly froze, and the silk handkerchief in her hands gently floated to the ground, like a beautiful flower blooming on the ground.

That pure white face turned pale from shock and fear, standing blankly on the spot, feeling Yue Ye's male Yang Gang's ashamed aura envelop her. Just looking at it was enough to freeze her heart.

She opened her mouth, but something seemed to block her throat. After a long time, she forced out two words, "Your Majesty …" The voice was hoarse and unpleasant to hear, as if it wasn't hers. She unconsciously stepped back an inch.

"I can tell you this. I do not love her face alone. I love everything about her. Today, you can ruin her looks. What about tomorrow?" Yue Ye gave a mocking glance to the handkerchief that had accidentally fallen from her hand.

He bent down to pick it up from the ground and sniffed it. A familiar fragrance wafted from it. Many years ago, the empress dowager used this poison to harm many of her favorite concubines, and smoothly ascended the throne! Not wanting to change the dynasty, this poison once again became popular in the imperial harem, and the first victim was his beloved woman!

"yufei gave you this poison, right? Stupid woman, you don't even know that you've been used by others. " Yue Ye smiled, the war between women was even more terrifying than men, and this young Bai Yuqi in front of her wasn't experienced enough, she was sold just like that.

Bai Yuqi immediately came to a realization and took the opportunity to kneel on the ground, shouting out in panic, "Your Majesty is wise! "Chenqie only did such a foolish thing after receiving the yufei's toast. The poison was given to chenqie by the yufei as well, your majesty …"

As she finished speaking, she began to cry uncontrollably. The rules of the imperial harem were always strict, and with Xue Fu being the Queen of a generation, if the emperor was serious, it would be a crime to behead the emperor. What she absolutely didn't expect was that Yue Ye already saw through her scheme in a single glance, and even lied that she was going to leave the palace for a few days. So it turned out that the real powerhouses were all at the end, so she was the one who fell in the end!

Yue Ye was not angry at all, her jade-like fingers digging into her tent, Xue Fu's originally pale face had turned scarlet from the poison, I'm afraid that she will slowly rot in the next few days. He looked at it in pain for a while before placing the antidote he had just taken into Xue Fu's mouth. He fed it to her, then called for a few female servants to take good care of it.

When the servants saw Bai Yuqi kneeling on the ground and crying, the Emperor's face was cold, and he was so scared that they did not dare make a sound. Inside the cabinet, only Bai Yuqi's gentle sobbing could be heard, and Yue Ye then mocked him, "Do you think yufei will admit it? "She will use you as a scapegoat. Since she has come up with a plan, how can I trust you?"

"Chenqie knows her wrongs. Chenqie deserves to die a thousand times for her crimes …"

"You can die!" Yue Ye suddenly said, as Bai Yuqi stared at him with teary eyes. Yue Ye turned around and pointed at Xue Fu, saying to her, "Hand over the antidote to remove Xue Fu's poison!"

"I... "I did not …" Bai Yuqi shook his head before nodding his head, "Alright, I'll go ask father for it. As long as Your Majesty is willing to forgive your concubine, your concubine will definitely …"

"Scram!" Yue Ye let out an extremely uncomfortable roar, her eyes turning blood-red from anger. The antidote! The Prime Minister Bai had actually threatened him with Xue Fu's antidote! Seeing that he was enraged, Bai Yuqi did not dare to speak anymore and escaped.

"Your majesty, General Lin has once again sent a letter saying that the southern borders have been in turmoil recently and that his troops have been mysteriously poisoned. He wants Your majesty to send another 50,000 elite soldiers to guard the southern borders." Eunuch Li bowed in front of the imperial desk and said carefully.

Yue Ye had long since stopped being surprised, and asked King Duan, "Sixth Brother, what would happen if we really send these fifty thousand elite soldiers?"

Duan Wang was startled, as if he didn't expect Yue Ye to say such words, and hastily replied, "Your majesty, are you stupid? She knew full well that General Lin was on the same side as Prime Minister Bai, and had recently gotten close to the empress dowager's family. Furthermore, this so-called lack of military power is just a skill or two used by them to stock up troops and horses.

Yue Ye laughed bitterly, taking in a light breath, "It is precisely because General Lin is a partner of Prime Minister Bai that we have no choice but to send troops." How could he not understand the stakes involved? General Lin had a strong military strength and had been in charge of several continents since the previous dynasty. The position of Prime Minister Bai in the imperial court could not be underestimated. In short, right now he was surrounded by poison arrows that were ready to be shot.

"He has Xue Fu's life to threaten us, do you know? That is my weakest point! " His voice was extremely soft, but it was also mixed with a deep sense of helplessness. Because a woman had lost her mountains and rivers, so it turned out that he was the monarch who had fainted once in a thousand years!

"You really shouldn't have chosen Bai Xue Fu as the backing." Prince Duan helplessly sighed. "If you hadn't insisted on taking her as a hostage, the situation wouldn't have suddenly dropped to ice. At the very least, there wouldn't have been any sudden changes at the empress dowager's place."

"If This Emperor were to establish the yufei as his successor, he would only be able to strengthen the power of the empress dowager." Yue Ye said. Perhaps, he was really in a hurry now, but he didn't regret it at all. Other than Xue Fu, he didn't want any woman to become his queen.

It was at this moment that an eunuch announced from outside the hall, "Reporting to your majesty, Prime Minister Bai requests an audience."

Yue Ye wrinkled her brows, unhappily asking, "What is he doing here?"

"I'll take my leave first." Duan Wang stood up from his chair and strode towards the cabinet. Just as he was about to leave, Prime Minister Bai entered and unexpectedly, Bai Yuqi followed him. After the father and daughter duo bowed, Prime Minister Bai first spoke out: "Your Majesty, this subject has come to the palace to bring along the unfilial daughter Bai Yuqi to the palace to seek punishment."

Yue Ye laughed coldly, looking sideways at the Prime Minister Bai as she ridiculed, "Does the Prime Minister Bai really want to come and beg forgiveness from us?"

"Please be merciful Your Majesty, chenqie knows her wrongs. Chenqie will definitely serve the emperor well in the future and not make any more mistakes." Bai Yuqi's voice trembled as she tightly laid on the ground, not daring to look at Long Yan.
