On the way back to the Queen's Palace, Ling Yutong gradually calmed down.
She slowly raised her eyes, her eyes calm.
She really shouldn't be so panicked.
It's just the stinking temper of the superior. Even though it's black and dirty, what does it have to do with her.
Thinking like this, the look on her face became calmer and more natural.
The Queen raised her finger slightly and patted the back of her hand.
Ling Yutong was stunned, subconsciously looked over, and met the queen's smiling eyes.
That is the openness and comfort that makes everything clear.
Ling Yutong suddenly felt more relaxed and could not help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly.
When the atmosphere was warm and natural, they received an uninvited guest in front of them.
Xiao Baozhu walked forward in a panic. When he saw them, his face changed and his eyes trembled.
I felt so guilty that I could hardly lift my head.
Ling Yutong instantly understood what the other party was doing.
In order to get a chance for Concubine Wan Gui, even the Minister of Household Affairs did not care about anything and came to see the Holy Sage as soon as possible, not to mention Xiao Baozhu, who had always regarded Concubine Wan Gui as his cousin.
Moreover, Xiao Baozhu is also Xiao Han's daughter.
Naturally, the Empress also thought of this, and the smile on her lips immediately became sarcastic.
"This is really... a family relationship."
Her words caused Xiao Baozhu to freeze immediately, and he did not dare to take a step forward.
With a panicked look on his face and panicked eyes, Xiao Baozhu immediately lowered his head and his voice was filled with sobs.
"Empress, I am... specially here to seek apology from you."
"oh?"
The queen responded casually.
Ling Yutong also looked over.
Xiao Baozhu seemed very nervous. She clutched her dress tightly, her heart pounding.
"After I learned about my cousin, I came to the palace without any delay. When I learned that you seemed to be with Concubine Xian, I ran over."
"I'm so lucky to have met you."
"That day in the lotus pond, I did something wrong. I have absolutely no idea of being right with you. I have always liked Brother Qiu Shui, but Brother Qiu Shui always ignored me. It was my cousin who often enlightened me.
talent……"
"Tsk."
Before Xiao Baozhu was ready to shed tears from her eyes, the queen interrupted her impatiently.
"It's nothing more than sesame seeds and rotten millet. I have long forgotten about it."
"You come up to me so eagerly and talk about your cousin again. Why are you saying something sarcastic to me that your cousin is so good and she shouldn't end up like this?"
"As for Qiu Shui, he is an adult man. As my sister, I will not interfere with his personal feelings."
The queen's eyes turned cold.
"I'm just ignoring you. It's like you feel aggrieved. Instead of thinking about your own faults, you're complaining. Is it possible that we, the Chen family, want to support your Xiao family?"
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Baozhu turned pale with shock. Her legs shook and she knelt on the ground. Her fingers tightly grasped her skirt and she kept trembling.
"No no..."
How could it be that the Chen family favored the Xiao family? It was the Xiao family who tried their best to win over the Chen family.
Xiao Baozhu trembled like chaff in a sieve, and felt like a mirror. Even though their two families had the same status before, since the Chen family gave birth to a queen, they are no longer the same.
She was really blind. She was so focused on pleasing her cousin that she forgot about the queen.
Okay now, this is almost offending!
Ling Yutong looked at Xiao Baozhu's straight body even when he was kneeling, and sneered in his heart.
This spine does not bend when it should bend, and cannot recognize the situation. No matter how powerful the family is, a good deck of cards will be turned into a bad one.
There was thought in her eyes.
But how did Xiao Baozhu know that the queen came to Concubine Xian?
You know, it's only been a short time since the incident happened.
Information about the palace's whereabouts, especially that of noble people, can be known to anyone who wants to know.
She turned her eyes silently and looked around.
Suddenly, her eyes narrowed.
Chen Qiushui?
Ling Yutong narrowed his eyes as he looked at the tall man not far away who was following Mr. Happy Luck in the same direction.
Ah, so that’s it.
The confessions and confessions written together were all made up on the spot. Xiao Baozhu came here from the beginning to the end just to block Chen Qiushui.
On the other side, Chen Qiushui, who was walking just fine, suddenly felt a chill on his back.
His right eyelid twitched ominously, and he subconsciously turned his gaze around, and happened to meet Ling Yutong's eyes... which seemed to be holding a handful of sympathy for him.
His eyes paused for a moment, then slowly moved.
The familiar Xiao Baozhu, a pretty girl in a pink skirt, suddenly knelt in front of his sister, trembling all over and showing off to the extreme.
Chen Qiushui: "..."
He wanted to ask Father Happy to leave quickly, but he still had something to report to the Holy Spirit.
But Eunuch Xifu was already keenly aware of Ling Yutong's gaze, and then he saw the Queen.
Chen Qiushui fell silent.
When Xifu saw Ling Yutong or Xiao Baozhu, the chance of him stopping to say hello was very slim.
But when Xifu sees his sister, the Queen, the probability of not saying hello is zero!
When Chen Qiushui followed Xifu this way, a smile flashed across Ling Yutong's eyes.
If resentment could materialize, I'm afraid she would have seen the thick clouds above Chen Qiushui's head.
Xiao Baozhu cried for a long time, but did not hear a response from the Queen.
She raised her eyes to catch a glimpse of the Queen's face, but the familiar scent of tea made her eyes brighten.
"Brother Qiushui!"
Before I could think about it, I called out some names, and my tone was full of joy, but there was no trace of the bitter look just now.
Chen Qiushui looked indifferent, trying to pretend that he didn't hear.
The Queen raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes showing undisguised mockery of her younger brother.
She even glanced at Ling Yutong with a smile and asked her to watch the play together after Eunuch Xi Luck saluted.
As her eyes passed over her younger brother and Xiao Baozhu, the queen couldn't help but secretly thought that these two people were really not compatible at all.
even……
A quiet and charming face appeared in the Queen's mind, and she couldn't help but shake her head and laugh.
The compatibility between Xiao Baozhu and his younger brother is not as good as Song Yue, the palace maid next to Yutong.
It's just that identity... it's a pity.
"I am not feeling well, please help yourself."
With that said, she left without even looking at Xiao Baozhu, who was kneeling on the ground.
Ling Yutong glanced at Chen Qiushui with a half-smile, and then left.
Chen Qiu Shui still had important matters to attend to. The Queen was gone, so they naturally went to find the Holy One.
No one paid attention to Xiao Baozhu who was kneeling on the ground.
Xiao Baozhu squeezed her skirt tightly, with extreme stubbornness in her eyes.
She will not give up brother Qiushui!
On the other side, Ling Yutong followed her mother back to the palace. She casually grabbed a palace maid guarding the door and asked, "Is Miss Xiao coming today?"
The palace maid shook her head in confusion: "No, I have been guarding here since the morning. I haven't seen Miss Xiao come over yet."
Ling Yutong couldn't help but smile after learning the answer he had expected.
Really, I was just making up lies on the spot.
However, she felt slightly relieved.
It seemed that there was no force behind the scenes that quietly informed Xiao Baozhu of the Queen's whereabouts.
