She didn't know whether her original decision was right or wrong.
She said: "Well, Yue'er, the Queen Mother doesn't know why there is no treasure. The Queen Mother only knows how to open the underground palace. As for what is inside, the Queen Mother really doesn't know anything."
As she said this, her eyes looked a little panicked.
The panic and guilt in Xue Feiye's eyes did not escape Yun Ruoyue's eyes.
Yun Ruoyue never expected that her mother would be so guilty.
Could it be that, as the Imperial Master said, the Queen Mother always had selfish motives and wanted to take the treasure as her own, so she opened a false door.
Thinking of this, she said tentatively, "Mother, now people are saying that our ancestors deceived everyone. Do you think this is true? We are the descendants of our ancestors, will they really deceive us? Moreover,
Even if there are no treasures in the underground palace, there are so many hidden weapons and so many people have been killed. Why would our ancestors do this to their descendants?"
Xue Feiye frowned and blinked guiltily, "This...I don't know about this either. What happened a hundred years ago is too long ago and I can't figure it out either."
She couldn't ask any more questions, lest she arouse the Queen's suspicion.
Thinking of this, she rubbed her head uncomfortably and said, "Mother, I didn't sleep well last night. I want to rest again."
"What? Didn't you sleep well? Did Pei'er fail to take good care of you?" Xue Feiye said, giving Pei'er a sharp look.
Yun Ruoyue said: "It's none of Pei'er's business, it's just that I don't like the bed. Don't worry, I'll get used to it if I sleep for a few more days."
"Okay then! Since you want to rest, I won't disturb you! I'll go back to the palace first. If you need anything, just tell Hua Nu directly and she will prepare it for you." Xue Feiye said gently.
"Okay, then you have a good rest." After Xue Feiye said that, she glanced at Yun Ruoyue worriedly before walking out.
After walking out, she was still confused.
Yue'er was obviously very close to her before, so why was she so alienated from her this time when she came back from the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion?
What happened during her time in the Imperial Prefect's Mansion?
She really wanted to ask Yue'er, but she couldn't do it directly.
That’s it!
She will observe it for two days before saying anything!

After Xue Feiye left, Pei'er breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the queen did not ask the saint anything else, otherwise it would have been easy for her to be exposed.
She looked at Yun Ruoyue and found that Yun Ruoyue was deep in thought. She hurriedly walked over and said, "Saint girl, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, don't worry." Yun Ruoyue shook her head lightly.
Thinking of the queen mother's expression just now, she felt very cold.
She just saw clearly the guilt, twinkling and panic in her mother's eyes.
The queen mother was obviously lying to her and was unwilling to tell the truth to her.
She remembered that after the underground palace was opened, many people died, including herself, who was also in danger and was almost eaten by those poisonous insects.
If Long Qianche hadn't saved her, she might have been dead.
If the Queen Mother knew that opening the underground palace would be dangerous and still allowed so many people to take risks, does this mean that the Queen Mother did not care about the lives of the people at all?
And she, she was inside at the time and was also facing danger.
When the queen mother made this decision, didn't she consider hers?
Isn't she afraid that something will happen to her?
Does this mean that the Queen Mother does not take her life and the lives of others at all?
Thinking of this, she instantly felt cold all over her body and her mood was extremely low.

At this time, Xue Wuxia and Li Tianwei also learned about Yun Ruoyue's return to the palace.
After receiving the news, the two people hurriedly came outside Changle Hall to see Yun Ruoyue.
When the two were about to enter Changle Hall, Long Qi led several guards over and stood in front of them coldly.
After Long Qi stood still, he looked at Xue Wuxia and said coldly: "First Prince, what do you want to do?"
Xue Wuxia glanced at Long Qi disdainfully, crossed her arms across her chest, and said casually: "This is my sister's palace, what do you think this prince wants to do?"
Long Qi clenched the hilt of the sword in his hand and said in a deep voice: "Sorry, eldest prince, no one is allowed to disturb the princess without the consent of the imperial master."
Hearing this, Xue Wuxia looked in disbelief.
He raised his lips disdainfully, "What? This prince can't even see his sister?"
Li Tianwei also said angrily: "Even if I want to see my sister Ruoyue, why don't you let us see her?"
"Weier, stop talking nonsense to them!" Xue Wuxia sternly said: "Long Qi, get out of the way! If you dare to stop me again, be careful that this prince will be rude to you!"
Long Qi said in a deep voice: "First Prince, I'm warning you, if you insist on forcing your way in, don't blame us for being ruthless!"
"You still want to commit the following crime? You will be the first to die!" Xue Wuxia said, grabbing Long Qi's hand and quickly snatching the sword from Long Qi's hand.
Then, he raised his hand, and the sword with a cold light touched Long Qi's neck.
"First Prince, what do you want to do?" Long Qi's pupils widened when he saw this. The other guards also pulled out their swords and were all ready.
The scene was immediately tense and tense.
"Stop it!" At this moment, a fierce female voice came from the hall.
Immediately afterwards, Yun Ruoyue, dressed in gorgeous clothes, walked out with cold eyes.
She had already heard the noise outside, and when she was about to come out to see what was going on, she saw Xue Wuxia holding a sword against Long Qi's neck.
She and Long Qi grew up together, and their relationship is naturally very deep.
Seeing Long Qi being held hostage, she immediately looked at Xue Wuxia coldly and said in a deep voice: "What are you doing? Please let him go!"
As soon as he saw Yun Ruoyue, Xue Wuxia immediately had a look of joy on his face, and he hurriedly said: "Yue'er, you finally returned to the palace? That's great! We can rest assured that you are fine!"
Seeing Xue Wuxia's enthusiastic face towards her, Yun Ruoyue was stunned for a moment.
In her memory, her impression of this brother was also very vague.
They were rarely together, so she looked at him very strangely.
Moreover, Long Kun also said that her brother had ulterior motives and was not a good person, so it was best for her not to get close to him.
But why are Xue Wuxia and the Queen so enthusiastic about her? It seems like they are often together.
At this time, Wei'er suddenly rushed towards Yun Ruoyue. She quickly took Yun Ruoyue's hand and said excitedly: "Sister Ruoyue, it's great that you are back. Seeing that you are safe and sound, we are finally relieved!
"
"Who are you? Please let me go!" Seeing Weier, Yun Ruoyue looked strange, so she quickly knocked Weier's hand away and quickly took two steps back.
When Weier saw her reaction, she was stunned on the spot.
Her eyes widened in disbelief, "Sister, what's wrong with you? Don't you recognize me anymore?"
