Thus with his thick face, Ji Jungkook followed Ye Lisa back to Kun Ning Palace.

He is not good at comfort woman, most of the time when he really needs to, he would just use candied words, now towards the angry Ye Lisa, he really don't know what he should do. To explain, he has done it already, and normally he is the less talkative type, so he does not feel like repeating the same words.

The atmosphere was really awkward.

Ye Lisa was very tired and have climbed on to her bed and slept. Ji Jungkook was by her side, in deep thoughts.

Today, that case, there should be something more to it. Firstly, why would the empress dowager able to accurately appear on time to Ying Hua Hall? Second, who was the one who used his jade to falsify his orders and got Lu Li to appear there?

The first was easier to clear, in this scheme surely the empress dowager is involved. Then was it her that asked someone to steal the jade to pass the fake order? It doesn't seem possible.... As long as Lu Li take out the jade, then he can explain the misunderstanding immediately, it doesn't seem like it was used to trap someone.

Also, not to mention when the empress dowager ask people to search Lu Li, it was almost as if, she is guaranteed to get something..

Gathering all this thoughts, Ji Jungkook came up with something : Most probably the empress dowager did order someone to falsify the order, just that not the emperor's order but the empress's, and use something that belonged to Ye Lisa. But what he couldn't have thought is that Lu Li found out the plan, and changed Ye Lisa's item with his jade, and change the whole situation around.

Here we should acknowledge Ji Jungkook's rational and logic thinking powers, if he is not an emperor, he would definitely be suitable to take on a job as a police detective, or something. He should be someone as well.

Therefore, the jade could have been stolen by Lu Li, or someone from Gan Qing Palace could have stolen it and passed it to Lu Li. No matter which was it, the people at Gan Qing Palace should be properly re-trained.

The moment he thought of how Lu Li took the jade, and told such a big lie, Ji Jungkook's first reaction was actually not angry, but felt lucky. The anger in his heart also dissipated quite a lot, and decided to act stupid this time round, and not punish Lu Li. Then after, when he thought of how the empress dowager wants to use the method of placing a green hat on to her own son to scheme her daughter in law, he got angered and slammed the table.

Although he initially decided to be a filial son, but it doesn't mean he will allow himself to be controlled by the empress dowager.

The person beyond the mosquito net seems to be disturbed by his action, and made some noise indicating that she is uncomfortable.

Ji Jungkook then quietly removed his outer clothes and climbed on to the bed as well, squirming into the blanket, and held Ye Lisa tightly in his arms.

As though as ease was achieve suddenly, he took a deep breath. Placing his chin lightly on her collar bone, he quietly whispered to her ears "did you know, I was really afraid that it was real"

What replied him was only the other person's even breathing.

"Luckily it was not" He added

***

The next day, afternoon, Ye Lisa heard that near the plum blossom garden, a eunuch hanged himself to death, the empress dowager asked the Lieutenant Lu to check whether it was the same eunuch that falsified the order.
