Wen Ranran smiled: "Good boy, come and sit quickly!"
Wen Ranran's unusual kindness made Xia Youlin get goosebumps for some reason.
It was actually because Wen Ranran's words were so kind.
Xia Youlin was so kind that for a moment, he felt that the queen in front of him, Wen Ranran, was not her so-called stepmother, but... his great-grandmother!
Xia Youlin was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the two women next to him, he immediately understood.
It's not like he hasn't heard the rumors in the capital. He originally thought that his father wanted to take a concubine just because of pressure, but now it seems like it is true.
Xia Youlin narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Qin Rou.
Forget it, Gu Sijia, the Qin Rou in front of her... is only seventeen or eighteen years old now, but the desire revealed in a pair of overly bright eyes makes Xia Youlin feel a little uncomfortable.
"Is this the eldest prince? I haven't heard of him before!" Qin Rou laughed dryly.
Not only Qin Rou, but Gu Sijia also stared at Xia Youlin's presence with wide eyes.
She had been in the capital for so long, and she never even knew of Xia Youlin's existence... Could this big child that suddenly appeared in front of her be adopted by Xia Lishuang?
"This is the child of the late King Xian. At that time, I took pity on his intelligence and raised him under my knees. Why, do you two have any questions?"
"But this is not the fault of the empress after all..." Qin Rou wanted to say something else, but Gu Sijia pulled her clothes.
Wen Ranran didn't say anything, but Xia Youlin next to him, who was young and energetic after all, snorted coldly.
"What are you talking about, girl?! Thanks to my mother's good temper, if it were my grandmother, she might just kick you out! The blood flowing in my body is the blood of the Xia family. My mother has been there since she was a child.
Then he told me that I am no different from others, but this Miss Qin... is very ambitious!"
After these words, Qin Rou was speechless.
Qin Rou reluctantly shut her mouth, her eyes a little uneasy, but she was secretly surprised at her rudeness today.
How dare you talk to Wen Ranran?!
If in the future, the wind blows from Wen Ranran's bedside, wouldn't everything on Daddy's side want to take down the Nanhai Shipping Affairs Department to go to waste?
Qin Rou lowered her eyelids and suddenly felt something was wrong.
Although I am usually domineering and outspoken, I cannot be such an idiot...
"Empress! We are rude today, I hope your Majesty will take offense... Miss Qin is also thinking about her family, and she is also thinking about the future of our Rongguo!"
Gu Sijia said softly, "Your Majesty, you won't blame us, right?!"
This chat over tea made Wen Ranran feel extremely sick.
But Wen Ranran had seen big scenes, so she smiled slightly and said, "How could it be? I don't think it's weird or not!"
Gu Sijia breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Wen Ranran's next words made her stop laughing completely.
"If it were anyone else, Miss Qin is actually the daughter of an official family, and it is not impossible to enter the palace. It is a pity... Your Majesty has no intention of taking concubines now. I am not in good health now, and I am too lazy to take care of the harem.
among the fights and tricks of women.”
Wen Ranran stared at Gu Sijia and said slowly, "Unfortunately... Miss Gu is different. She is not the daughter of a wealthy family. Now she can't go back to Yizhou... She is an orphan, but she lives in this palace.
Yes, but others...I'm afraid..."
Gu Sijia's face suddenly turned pale.
Wen Ranran hit the nail on the head and directly hit her biggest pain point and the problem she had to face.
Previously, there was no woman around Xia Lishuang, so she could stay in the palace with the so-called life-saving grace.
However, staying in the palace is just staying in the palace, which is not justified.
But this time Chao He... made her, Gu Sijia, completely recognize herself.
