Chapter 2566 Falling into a Trap
The face cream she gave last time could only temporarily prevent the empress dowager from losing her face, but when the empress dowager stopped the cream, a rash started to appear on her face.

He was so frightened that he almost lost his soul, so he found a scapegoat in the small kitchen of the Changchun Palace, saying that she made hot things for the queen mother, and finally exposed it.

"There's a banquet ahead, and the Empress Dowager asked the younger one to invite Mrs. Ruan and Doctor Ye to have a birthday banquet together."

Yuan Bao said politely, "How is Mrs. Ruan?"

Yeran knew that Yuan Bao's voice just now was to remind him.

She responded calmly: "Mrs. Ruan went to rest somewhere else, didn't Eunuch Yuan know about it? Didn't the eunuchs who served her report to the front hall?"

"Mrs. Ruan entered this room with Doctor Ye, why did she go to rest somewhere else?"

The nurse next to Eunuch Yuan barged in: "Madam Ruan is a distinguished guest of the Empress Dowager, this old slave goes in to have a look."

Just as Yuan Bao was about to call out to the nanny, seeing Ye Ran's indifferent expression, he hesitated to speak, and let the nanny lead someone in.

Sure enough, as soon as I entered, the room was empty!

The nanny met Ye Ran's cold gaze and smoothed things over with a guilty conscience: "These waiters are really, so careless, Mrs. Ruan is not with Dr. Ye, and she doesn't come to the main hall to report. It's really rude. , you must train yourself well later on.”

She looked respectful: "Doctor Ye, please move, and accompany Lao Nu and Yuan Gonggong to the front hall to have a birthday banquet."

Following Yuan Bao all the way to the front hall, Yeran's palms were covered with sweat, and there were ice cubes in the room, but she was still so nervous that her palms were covered with sweat.

It was too dangerous just now!
It was she who underestimated the shamelessness of the queen mother and Long Yinxuan's mother and son, and fell into the trap unknowingly.

If Long Yinxuan hadn't been so angry with her in the Chengming Palace, and had directly asked Yuan Bao and the empress dowager's personal nuns to catch him and yelled everywhere, she wouldn't be able to wash away even if she jumped into the Yellow River.

Today's Empress Dowager's birthday banquet was full of important ministers and wives of the capital and relatives of the emperor. If their mother and son had the upper hand, even if the situation could be turned around on the day when the teacher returned to the court, once this kind of romantic affair was spread, it would be difficult to clear it up.

Just like the incident at Duke Ruan's mansion, it was widely spread in the capital, and it will not be cleared up for a while.

After all, the northern Xinjiang army has not yet returned to the court, and Weiyang Palace is short of manpower. They are at a disadvantage. If they come like this, it will really disrupt the layout of her and King Xiao.

Fortunately, she knows Long Yinxuan too well!
It was precisely because of this understanding, and precisely because she stood on the moral high ground, that she was able to deal with it calmly, and drove him to pieces step by step.

Only then could she see through his mind and escaped danger in this silent game!

As for the next step, the queen mother and the emperor, the mother and son, still want to plot against her. There will be a big drama coming up soon, and they should be too busy to take care of themselves.

When Eunuch Yuan led Yeran into the main hall through the side door, the singing and dancing in the main hall was peaceful, and the guests who came to the Changchun Palace for the birthday banquet were all enjoying the dance and music in the palace, and no one noticed her for the time being.

It was probably because she was so angry with Ruan Guogong's old lady's words that the Queen Mother became jealous of her. The place where Yuan Bao led her to sit was the most remote corner of the hall.

This table is arranged for the courtier's wife with the lowest rank. Mrs. Yi and her son are just a small editor of the Hanlin Academy, a junior official of the seventh rank. She can come to the palace to have a banquet, but she entrusts Mrs. Ruan Fu.

Therefore, the place where Yuan Bao led Ye Ran to sit was beside Mrs. Yi.
