The two eunuchs, who heard the Emperor's promise of pardon for their families, were immediately willing to cooperate with the interrogation which was taken over by the head of the Emperor's guard; Zheng Yuan who was also the Emperor's chief eunuch.
Satisfied, having gotten what they wanted from the two eunuchs of Consort Ming's men, the two noble men immediately left the interrogation room for Head Eunuch Zheng to take over. The two men walked more leisurely back to the imperial study compared to when they both came. Yu Wang just followed behind the Emperor, feeling annoyed that the Emperor was walking so casually because his anger had subsided with the intention of confession from the two eunuchs. Yu Wang would have loved to walk past the Emperor if only his upbringing as a prince that had been instilled in him since childhood was forgotten.
The Emperor as a martial arts master could feel the annoyance radiating from his younger brother, but this man was only pretending to be stupid because he felt more relaxed after knowing that he could get rid of Consort Ming with the evidence provided by the two eunuchs later. The Emperor wanted to enjoy the relief he would get while taking a leisurely stroll in the company of the person he trusted most.
Yu Wang, who realized that his older brother seemed to be deliberately indifferent to him, felt even more annoyed and took a deep breath.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, this prince wishes to resign because it is too late and this prince intends to return to his palace sooner."
The Emperor turned around and glanced amusedly at his little brother. Remembering that his younger brother used to love working until late at night, Yu Wang has now begun to change. He now began to want to return as soon as possible to Yu Wang Palace.
"It seems Yu Wang quite likes his wife now." the Emperor teased Yu Fengyao.
Hearing the Emperor's teasing, Yu Wang only snorted softly and did not reject the assumption.
"Did Su Qingyi take good care of you?" asked the Emperor with a smile.
Yu Fengyao looked at the densely maintained trees along the path they were walking on. He smiled faintly.
"She's a good girl." Looking at the Emperor, Yu Fengyao said again; "Thank you Brother Emperor for replacing my bride with her."
"This Emperor is relieved that Yu Wang is no longer angry because of that matter."
"This Prince was never angry with the Emperor, just a little unwilling because the Emperor didn't tell me anything before changing my bride."
"Alright, that matter has passed. You must have a good marriage with your Wang Fei. Don't be too strict with your wife. A woman should be loved and pampered. Su Qingyi is a poor girl, you should love her more."
"This prince understands. This prince will love her sincerely."
"Okay, you may return to your palace. This Emperor will not prevent you from being intimate with your wife. You must have children as soon as possible, the Queen Dowager will certainly hope for it."
Yu Fengyao smiled slightly and said quietly; "This Prince will wait for Su Qingyi to be older to have children. Her body must be prepared first, the Imperial Physician has already examined her and advised not to get pregnant for now because her body is not very good. Living in the Su Clan makes her body not grow healthily.
Ming Concubine Palace.
Su Mingmei saw the gate of her Concubine's palace closed tightly after the servants that the Empress Dowager had sent her back here after dragging her out of the banquet. This beautiful woman bit her lip because of mounting annoyance. The Empress Dowager's servants locked her up in her own Concubine's palace.
"Damn it, it's all because of that unlucky woman. The Empress Dowager is suspicious of me."
Su Mingmei slammed the tea set on the table.
"No, I have to relax. The Empress dowager is suspicious of me but they won't get anything from the people I sent to the servant house. They are all very loyal to me, they won't betray me."
Su Mingmei paced back and forth in the main hall. The confinement imposed on her meant that she would not be able to find out anything. When the palace gates were closed, she saw that the Emperor's golden guards were guarding the front gates. Biting her neat and manicured nails, Su Mingmei felt very anxious. She didn't want to wait like an ant in heat, waiting for bad news. She should be able to find out something about what happened, but how.
"Concubine-" a whispered girl's voice called out, making Su Mingmei look around. Near the wall not far from the hall door, Su Mingmei saw a female servant looking in.
"You-"
"I'm from the Su family." explained the female servant.
"Oh very good."
Su Mingmei felt relieved because of the servant's notification. He immediately walked over to the wall where the servant was hanging.
"Did you bring me news?"
"I was just told to tell you that you were told to be calm and patient. The Head of the Family will try to help you."
"Oh, Grandpa will help me. That's good. That's right, I am the hope for the Su family to become better. If I can survive and get through this, the Su family will also be even more prosperous."
Su Mingmei knew that the head of the Su family, who was also her grandfather, would help, feeling more relieved. The fear of being discovered for the evil deeds directed at Empress Song now receded from her. Su Mingmei felt arrogant again because she was needed by the Su family.
After telling Concubine Ming the message she was told to give, the maidservant climbed down from the wall and hurried away. The maid did not notice that there was a guard wearing gold armor who noticed her arrival. The guard followed her from a distance until the maidservant came out of the Palace and headed to a small house on the outskirts of the capital.
