When have I ever refused your request?
Late at night.
Ling Cheng looked at the unexpected visitor with slight surprise. "Wen Chancellor, why are you visiting so late? Is there something urgent?" The last time he was harshly rejected by this man, and now he suddenly shows up; he was truly at a loss.
"Lord Ling, let's not beat around the bush! I know you want me to agree to that matter, but my wife and child are innocent. If you think you can use them to threaten me, that's absolutely impossible! At that time, I would be worried about Lord Ling regretting it!" Wen Shaojun said straightforwardly, his eyes filled with killing intent.
Ling Cheng's cunning face flashed with a hint of confusion. "I truly do not understand what Wen Chancellor means."
"Are you really saying you've done nothing?" Wen Shaojun asked in surprise, looking at the man before him, who indeed did not seem to be lying.
A sigh flashed through his mind; it seemed that Ling Cheng was not the one behind this.
Where could Yun'er and Amin be?
Could it be Tian Feiyao? But he was currently focused on Jie Yu and seemed unaware that Lele was still alive! After learning that Lele had once been an imperial consort, he had dug into that past and found out that Consort Yun had long since died.
Now, the one who remains is Lele.
Nothing more than that.
But who could have taken them?
Seeing Wen Shaojun's anxious demeanor, Ling Cheng felt a stir in his heart. "Wen Chancellor, have you encountered a dilemma? Why not tell me, and let me see if I can help Yi Er!" He naturally had his own calculations in mind; right now, both his daughter and himself needed Wen Shaojun's assistance.
What harm could there be in helping him a little?
Wen Shaojun raised his gaze, pondering for a moment before saying, "Alright, I will trouble Lord Ling with this matter. If you find my wife and child, I will be immensely grateful! At that time, whatever Lord Ling wishes to do, I will certainly do my best!"
The next morning, Tian Fei Nuo brought Ma Lele into the palace.
As the sunlight poured into the palace, Ma Lele looked around, her eyes slightly stinging.
Imperial Palace, I am back again.
Tian Fei Nuo whispered in her ear, "Do you know why I brought you into the palace?"
Ma Lele smiled faintly and shook her head.
She didn't know, nor did she want to know.
"Because I want to watch you and Tian Feiyao torment each other. I will place you beside his most favored Consorts, making you witness his daily affection with another woman. In the end, when you say, if I told him the truth, what would he do?" Tian Fei Nuo's voice was seductive and low, quietly swirling in her ear.
Every word struck cruelly against her heart.
So this is what he wanted.
This version of Tian Fei Nuo was truly terrifying. Although she hated Tian Feiyao, ever since her failed attempt to bring him down with her, she no longer wished to hurt him.
Now, as a mute, what was she supposed to do?
In just one night, Ma Lele seemed to have turned into a dead person; occasionally there would be some expression on her face, but most of the time she was lost in thought.
She had truly had enough of the torment.
The only consolation was that the child in her womb was safe.
Zhaoyang Palace.
When Jie Yu saw the visitor, she was taken aback and quickly dismissed the servants, frowning as she said, "What are you doing here?" She did not expect Tian Fei Nuo to be so bold as to come openly to the Imperial Palace where she resided.
Ma Lele quietly gazed at the woman in front of her. How long had it been since they last met? Although she still appeared cold, there were already traces of love reflected in the corners of her eyes and brows.
That was a look only a happy woman could have.
Thinking of this, her heart ached slightly. She wanted to cry but desperately held back her tears.
"Is it wrong for me to come and see you?" Tian Fei Nuo smirked, her gaze quietly shifting between the two.
Jie Yu also noticed Ma Lele. "Who is this?"
"Your maid, don't refuse me!" Tian Fei Nuo replied with a smile.
Jie Yu wanted to say more, but she knew this must be another spy planted by Tian Fei Nuo. "Fine, let her stay!"
Only then did Tian Fei Nuo nod in satisfaction and turned to Ma Lele, saying, "Lele, you just stay here and do your job well. Just remain in Zhaoyang Palace; don't go anywhere else!" In his mind, he had his own calculations, estimating that Wen Shaojun and others were likely searching for her now.
If she were discovered later, this world would go mad again.
Ma Lele nodded, a cold smile forming in her heart. She hadn't expected that Jie Yu was indeed Tian Fei Nuo's person.
Even if she were a fool, she understood at this moment what Tian Fei Nuo was painstakingly trying to achieve.
He had been an idle prince for so many years, seen as an unworthy playboy by everyone.
Now, he was finally starting to take action.
But did Tian Feiyao know?
Just thinking of that name made it hard for her to breathe.
"Why isn't she speaking?" Seeing her remain silent beside them, Jie Yu asked curiously.
"Silent one. From now on, just call her Lele!" Tian Fei Nuo said, looking at Ma Lele's face, which was more painful than a cry, and his smile deepened even more.
Jie Yu nodded thoughtfully, "Alright, leave it to me! It's not safe to stay here for long; you should leave quickly. The Emperor will return from court soon!"
Hearing this, Ma Lele trembled all over, as if an unknown liquid was boiling in her veins. She looked at Tian Fei Nuo in a slight panic, only to see a warning expression in his eyes. Ma Lele felt a chill in her heart and immediately regained her composure.
She absolutely could not show any signs of weakness; otherwise, Tian Fei Nuo would definitely not spare Amin.
Thinking this way, she felt much better.
Only then did Tian Fei Nuo leave with satisfaction.
At this moment, only Jie Yu and Ma Lele remained in the room.
"You, go brew a pot of tea. The Emperor will be here soon!" Jie Yu coldly instructed her and then called the other Palace Maids.
Ma Lele nodded and obediently went.
As soon as she entered the tea room, she heard a familiar voice.
"Up so early? Why not sleep a little longer, hmm?" It was so gentle and low, like a glass of wine that could intoxicate with just one sip.
Ma Lele's hand trembled, and the scalding hot water immediately splashed onto her hand.
The sting made her slightly awake, but the tears could no longer be held back.
"The Emperor left, and I couldn't sleep!" Jie Yu nestled in Tian Feiyao's arms, as if she couldn't bear to part for even a moment.
When she saw Ma Lele walking in slowly with red and swollen eyes while holding the tea, she frowned, "Why are you so slow?"
At this point, Tian Feiyao couldn't help but look over curiously, "Why does this person seem so unfamiliar?"
"Oh, this is a servant sent by San Wangye today. They say she is an elf, but I can't see it at all!" Jie Yu quickly explained, then took the tea from the bowed head of Ma Lele and handed it to Tian Feiyao.
"Lift your head up, let me see!" Tian Feiyao nodded thoughtfully, watching the woman keep her head down, feeling a bit curious.
His voice was not loud, but it carried a strong authority.
Ma Lele's heart raced. Although she knew that her appearance had changed and he would not recognize her, she still felt a flicker of hope.
But...
A-Yao, do you really not recognize me?
She slowly raised her head. Her ordinary face showed no expression, but her eyes were incredibly clear, like a spring on Tianshan.
Tian Feiyao looked at her and for some reason felt his heart flutter.
Seeing that the emperor was silent, Jie Yu thought he was angry and quickly explained, "This woman is mute, so please do not blame her, Your Majesty!"
Only then did Tian Feiyao relax. He turned to look at Jie Yu, who looked exactly like Yun'er, and finally a smile appeared on his face.
