After the words fell, the surroundings were quiet for a moment.

Even Sun Zhongyan and others couldn't help looking at Rong Xiu.

This is actually what they are most curious about.

Under the circumstances at that time, even Wei Yun was blocked, but Rong Xiu broke in smoothly and successfully reached the sixth floor!

You know, even Sun Zhongyan and others are just reaching the fifth level!

The queen stared at Rong Xiu, and many speculations flashed through her heart.

Since I came back from calm cultivation, I have been living in simplicity. Apart from recuperation, I seem to have rarely been involved in other things.

It seems to be free from desires and is gentle and calm.

But she always felt something was wrong in her heart.

She couldn't tell what the problem was, but she had always had a sense of intuition in her heart: Rong Xiu was definitely not as simple and harmless as it seemed on the surface!

If he is really just a sick medicine jar, then how did he enter Jiuyou Tower and how did he reach the sixth floor!?

Countless eyes fell on Rong Xiu, with a strong sense of scrutiny.

Rong Xiu looked calm and smiled slightly.

But that smile did not spread to the corners of my eyes.

"The reason why I can reach the sixth level is because my mother has been there before."

Emperor Jiawen was shocked:

"What did you say!?"

Rong Xiu took something out of his arms.

It was a ring-shaped jade pendant the size of a palm.

It is emerald green all over, like the germination of leaves in early spring, transparent and clean.

And on the jade pendant, there is something carved.

Chu Liuyue took a look at it from the beginning and found that it seemed to be a pattern of peach blossoms on it?

This is obviously a jade pendant carved from a good piece of jade, but other than that, there seems to be nothing special.

However, when Emperor Jiawen saw the jade pendant, he suddenly changed his expression!

He quickly stepped forward, as if he wanted to take a closer look at the jade pendant, but he suddenly stopped halfway through his hand.

Chu Liuyue had never seen that look on Emperor Jiawen's face.

Complexity, entanglement, longing, regret...

With a glance at the end of his eyes, the queen standing behind Emperor Jiawen had a pale face, as if she had seen something terrible.

With a thought, she had probably guessed the origin of the jade pendant.

"You...where did you get this jade pendant?"

Emperor Jiawen asked in a trembling voice.

“The sixth floor.”

Rong Xiu said lightly.

"When I saw the fire on Jiuyou Tower, Erchen remembered that this thing was still on the sixth floor, and he was worried, so he went up regardless of the obstacles. Although he was injured, fortunately, the things were taken back intact."

"This is the first gift she gave to me in person... Later, she left the palace and took it away. I... I have been looking for this thing for many years, but I didn't expect--"

Emperor Jiawen felt like he was blocked by something, and he didn't say anything for a while.

Chu Liuyue knew it.

It turned out to be the token of love between Emperor Jiawen and Concubine Wan. No wonder Emperor Jiawen reacted so strongly.

Judging from his appearance, he has a deep love for Concubine Wan.

It was rumored that Concubine Wan was favored by the harem, but later, somehow, she had a quarrel with Emperor Jiawen. She left the palace in anger and entered Tianlu College as a teacher.

Until she died, she did not return to the palace.

I don’t know what happened back then, but I asked Concubine Wan to take back all the tokens of love she sent.

It seems that no thought was left for Emperor Jiawen.

Now, it is largely because of Concubine Wan.

Seeing Emperor Jiawen's move, Rong Xiu still had a gentle smile on his face.

But in Chu Liuyue's view, this smile was clear alienation.

Obviously, Rong Xiu didn't care about Emperor Jiawen's series of reactions.

"Before leaving, my mother told her son that she had placed this thing on the sixth floor of Jiuyou Tower. She also told her that she would not tell her father until she had no choice but to do so. So, please forgive me."

Emperor Jiawen was stunned.

"She really hates... Nothing, you are doing it for her own good, and it is also necessary not to tell me. Since this thing is already here with you, you will keep it in the future."

After saying that, Emperor Jiawen sighed, as if he had grown much older in an instant.

"I'm tired, so I'll go back to the palace first."

After saying that, he didn't wait for the others to say anything, and turned around and left.

The queen was stunned on the spot, full of confusion.

Leaving!?

Your Majesty actually left like this!?

Wasn't he asking Rong Xiu how to get up to the sixth floor? Rong Xiu just mentioned the jade pendant, but he didn't continue to ask!?

The queen looked back at Emperor Jiawen who had left, and reasonably told her that she should follow him immediately.

But there were so many things happening today that she could no longer control the impulse in her heart.

So she still insisted on asking:

"King Li, this jade pendant is the relics of Concubine Wan. You took the risk to get it. It was originally a filial piety and worthy of praise. But... you haven't explained clearly how you went up to the sixth floor?"

A sneer suddenly came from beside him.

The queen turned her head and found that this person was actually Ye Zhiting.

He shook the palm-leaf fan in his hand and said slowly:

"Empress, don't you know that the jade pendant is an original instrument?"

The queen was stunned.

"What, what?"

"That thing is placed on the sixth floor. Rong Xiu has the blood of Concubine Wan, so he can naturally go up smoothly..."

Ye Zhiting was originally full of doubts.

But when I saw the jade pendant, I immediately understood everything.

At this moment, seeing the queen's aggressive look, I couldn't help but feel disgusted and said lazily:

"It seems that the queen doesn't know about this? Yes, it's a matter between His Majesty and Concubine Wan, and it's normal for the queen to not know about it."

The queen's face turned pale in anger, but she did not dare to confront Ye Zhiting in public.

Although she is the queen, even Emperor Jiawen wants to give Ye Zhiting three points of face, let alone herself?

The many pairs of eyes around her looked at her made her even more embarrassed.

It seems that we can’t deal with Rong Xiu and Chu Liuyue today, we have to find another opportunity.

Thinking of this, the queen forced a smile:

"Thank you, Mr. Ye, for answering your doubts. Your Majesty has left, so I won't leave much."

After saying that, he hurriedly turned around and chased Emperor Jiawen.

"Father, please stay."

Rong Xiu suddenly spoke, his voice as cold as jade.

Emperor Jiawen, who had walked a distance, heard the sound and turned around in confusion:

"how?"

Rong Xiu took a step forward.

"My son has something to ask for."

He stood there, standing tall and handsome.

His body was clearly covered with messy blood, but his eyebrows were calm and noble, which made people feel unconsciously awe.

Emperor Jiawen asked:

"What's the matter?"

Rong Xiu raised his thin lips with a perfect curve.

"This time, to save Miss Chu into Jiuyou Tower, it is fake, but my son-in-law admires Miss Chu in his heart, it is true."

Chu Liuyue's heart thrilled.

Then, I saw the always noble and graceful man stretched out his long arms, lifted up his brocade robe, and knelt down straight down.

"My son has no other request in this life, but I hope that as my mother said, I will hold one hand and one person will have a white hair."
