Once they entered the room and sat down, Ning Chen began to discuss the matter of the celestial phenomena.
"Do not be angry; I originally did not believe in this. However, he said it might be detrimental to the heir to the throne and could harm you, which worries me."
After saying this, he immediately added an explanation.
Seeing the tension in his phoenix eyes, Ye Yun couldn't help but laugh.
Ning Chen looked puzzled. "What are you laughing at?"
"I'm happy," Ye Yun replied, slightly raising her brows and curling her lips into a smile. "I can tell that Your Majesty genuinely cares about me. With this intention from you, nothing else matters."
Her words made her seem even more understanding and considerate in Ning Chen's eyes, evoking a sense of tenderness.
He couldn't help but pull her closer and embrace her. "You are truly wonderful; having you is my good fortune."
Ye Yun gently responded, patting his back.
"Since Your Majesty has mentioned that this matter is unimportant, then you should accompany me to do something serious. I'm hungry. What would Your Majesty like for dinner? Let's have the kitchen prepare it."
With that, she skillfully shifted the topic.
Tonight, he would dine at Zhaochun Pavilion, and naturally, he would be staying over. Moreover, he would leave only close to noon the next day.
Langhua Pavilion...
"Your Majesty still went to see her after listening to the words of the Astronomical Bureau?" Yi Shunyi frowned.
The third prince was ill, having had a slight fever the previous night, and she had been tending to him without rest, which is why the servants had not dared to disturb her until today when they shared the news from yesterday.
Yun Xiu nodded, her expression not looking very good. "Yes, he went before dinner yesterday and did not leave until almost noon today. It seems he only left after meeting with a minister from the previous dynasty; otherwise, he might have stayed for lunch as well."
Upon hearing this, Yi Shunyi's gaze darkened.
"His Majesty is still favoring Ye Shi so much. The Astronomical Bureau has not been taken seriously since the previous emperor's reign; could it be that he did not take their words to heart at all?"
If he hadn't listened, insisting on promoting Ye Shi as the Empress would have been for naught.
However, it was not easy to catch such a good opportunity, making it difficult for anyone to discern any clues.
"I think that as long as it's only His Majesty who knows, then the decision still rests with him. But if more people find out, the ministers in court might have some influence over His Majesty's thoughts," Yun Xiu said.
After thinking for a moment, Yi Shunyi found her reasoning sound and quietly instructed a few things, sending someone to make arrangements.
Meanwhile, on the other side, after Ning Chen left, Ye Yun also had someone investigate whether there were any palace women involved in this matter.
Ning Chen, being a man, might not understand the thoughts of women, but Ye Yun did.
The women in the harem could exert themselves in various matters. Compared to Ning Chen, Ye Yun was even less inclined to believe in any celestial or ghostly claims, so even if it seemed like a coincidence, she needed to investigate further.
