I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 1055

Chapter 1055: Chapter 391: The Empress’s Sudden Assault! Four Women, One Drama!

Zhao Hua Palace.

A wooden desk was set up in front of the Imperial Desk, with Eunuch Jin buried in handling memorials, and a small mountain of documents piled up beside him.

Before leaving, the Empress had instructed that he could handle general affairs at his discretion, but if there were urgent matters, he could send a message through the Earth Veins to the Southern Border.

As the Chief Steward and Director of the Rites, he often assisted with tasks, so this job was not particularly difficult for him. The only troublesome part was having to pretend that the Empress was still in the palace.

Not only did he have to pay respects to the empty air at Ningde Palace every morning and evening, but he also had to send in breakfast and then find a secluded place to secretly eat it...

To the outside, it was announced that the phoenix body was unwell, and the routine morning assemblies were also suspended.

At first, things went smoothly, but as days passed without the Empress showing herself, suspicions grew, and recently rumors had begun circulating in the palace.

"When will Her Majesty return?"

"Things can’t go on like this for much longer."

Eunuch Jin put down the brush, rubbing his brows.

Regarding the reason for the Empress leaving the palace, although Sun Senior Palace Lady did not explicitly say, he could guess.

After all, Chen Mo had just left, and the Empress followed immediately to the Southern Border. It was too obvious, not even pretending anymore...

"The Princess is strong-willed and holds military power, ordinary men wouldn’t catch her eye."

"Yet Chen Mo, not only gifted, also refined the Soldier Control Seal, excelling in every aspect. They are considered well-matched, and with military support, their future will be much smoother."

"But who would have thought this boy would take such an unusual route, wishing to ascend to the sky in one step..."

Eunuch Jin sighed.

The step taken too large, and he could get hurt.

After all, the Emperor is merely ill, not dead. If their relationship is exposed, not only will Chen Mo suffer, but even the Empress might not be able to save herself.

Knock, knock, knock—

At that moment, the hall door knocked, and a Palace Attendant’s voice came through: "Eunuch, someone outside requests an audience."

Eunuch Jin frowned.

Recently, many ministers had heard rumors, coming to the palace under the pretense of reporting, trying to inquire for information, but he had sent them all off.

Just about to find an excuse to decline, the Palace Attendant continued: "The one outside is Master Lv, saying he has urgent matters to report to Her Majesty. He’s waiting outside now."

"Lv Huaiyu?"

"Why is he here?"

Eunuch Jin’s heart skipped a beat, hesitated slightly, but still rose and walked out of Zhao Hua Palace.

In the Palace Square.

Lv Huaiyu stood with eyes slightly narrowed, hands drooped, with a majestic presence under his red robe, exuding a profound aura.

Hearing footsteps approaching, he looked up, a rare smile appearing on his stern face, his voice raspy like stone scraping against metal, "Eunuch Jin, long time no see."
