After transmigrating into the book, the prime minister always wants to farm with me.

Chapter 491 Want to use her?
The carriage slowly made its way to the palace. Pei Yuanjun and Qi Yunran sat in the carriage and exchanged a glance.

Qi Yunran noticed Pei Yuanjun's worry for him and gestured with her hands to reassure her.

Pei Yuanjun smiled and nodded.

They soon arrived at the palace gate, and Pei Yuanjun, expressionless, helped Qi Yunran down from the carriage.

Two palace maids had already arrived at the palace gate and were waiting.

Upon seeing Pei Yuanjun, Eunuch Desheng immediately approached him: "Prime Minister, this old servant has finally been waiting for you! Please invite His Majesty, who has been waiting for a long time!"

Pei Yuanjun gave a soft "hmm" without any expression.

At this moment, Eunuch Desheng saw Qi Yunran being carefully helped down by Pei Yuanjun, and immediately said with a beaming smile, "The Virtuous Lady has also returned safely, which is great news. His Majesty was very worried when he heard that the Virtuous Lady had gone missing, and now that he sees that she is safe and sound, His Majesty must be very pleased."

Qi Yunran suddenly sneered: "If you're worried about me, why didn't the Emperor let my husband come to find me? When I returned, the soldiers guarding the city gates humiliated me and wouldn't let me enter the city. And where is Princess Mingzhu, who injured me? Why didn't she come to my door to kowtow and beg for forgiveness?"

Grandpa Desheng was speechless for a moment.

Qi Yunran didn't give him a chance to react and said coldly, "I beg Your Majesty to be fair and just and to find out as soon as possible the treacherous minister who wants to slander the Prime Minister's Mansion."

The smile on Desheng's face froze for a second, looking rather awkward!
Then, perking up, he said, "Prime Minister, please hurry and invite His Majesty; he must be getting impatient. And Lady Xian, please go to the Empress's palace as well! Don't keep Her Majesty waiting!"

After saying that, he immediately walked ahead to lead the way. Pei Yuanjun coldly watched his back and then turned to give Qi Yunran a knowing look.

They followed Desheng Gonggong.

Just then, a female official from the Empress's palace came over: "Madam, let's go quickly!" Qi Yunran turned around and said, seemingly indignantly, "This Eunuch Desheng actually ignored my question. I'm going to the Empress to seek justice for my daughter and myself."

The female official looked uneasy; she was seeking justice, but the Empress wouldn't concern herself with that!
But this was beyond her control, so she advised, "Then let's hurry up and go?"

After speaking respectfully, she led the way, but Qi Yunran was not about to let her go: "Tell me, where might Princess Mingzhu be hiding? She almost killed me. Does the royal family think they can escape punishment by hiding her?"

The female official remained silent, her expression stiff.

Seeing that she didn't answer, Qi Yunran continued, "And the guards at the gate on the day I returned to the capital clearly didn't respect the Emperor at all. Even when I presented the imperial pardon personally bestowed by the Emperor, it was useless. They still insisted on arguing with me. Who do you think is the mastermind behind them?"

The female official shuddered; the virtuous lady truly dared to say anything.

I never thought the journey would be so long before, but today it feels exceptionally difficult and long.

She didn't actually want to hear what Qi Yunran was saying. After the Virtuous Lady left, if the Empress asked her any questions, she wouldn't dare tell the Empress about these rebellious words she had spoken.

A cold glint flashed in Qi Yunran's eyes. Did she want to use her?
Fengyi Palace is neither too close nor too far, as it is not far from the Emperor's sleeping quarters.

She wouldn't be angry if she were carried there in a sedan chair, but having to walk there while writing Mayday would be hot and sweaty.

Nobody is in a good mood.

So, while there was still some distance, Qi Yunran innocently asked again, "What does Your Majesty the Empress want with me this time? Is it to apologize for my foolish act of bestowing the title of Princess Mingzhu upon me? After all, Your Majesty the Empress is a role model for all women. I not only suffered a fright and ended up in a foreign land, but I also lost the child in my womb."
