After the tea time passed, Gu Qingyan stood up, moved her body a little, and then called Eunuch Bu.

"Your Highness." Eunuch Bu had been waiting outside the door. When he heard the summons, he entered the house in small steps.

"Is Su Xin back?" Gu Qingyan asked.

Bu Gong said fairly: "Miss Su Xin hasn't come back yet."

"Gu and Madam Feng are going out for a walk."

"Yes, the villain is serving His Highness."

Mr. Bu was smart, and he knew that Gu Qingyan meant to show off the seriousness of the emperor and concubine, so he went out and greeted all the ceremonial guards that had been prepared.

Gu Qingyan signaled to Madam Feng that she would lead the way.

Qixiang Palace was somewhat far away from Changle Palace, so Gu Qingyan got on the chariot prepared by Eunuch Bu. The princess, who was so arrogant all the way that she was sick and cultivated, already knew what was going on.

"Yuetao, what did the prince say?"

Yuetao had just returned from the main hall, where the court had already dispersed. The prince returned to the study and waited for Li Linyu to enter the palace to pay his respects.

"Go back to your Majesty. Your Majesty said that it is not appropriate for your Majesty to do hard work while she is ill. Just leave everything to the Emperor Ji."

After Yuetao finished speaking, she wanted to secretly take a look at her mother-in-law's expression. If these words were heard by someone with ulterior motives, it seemed that it would be easy to sow discord between the prince and the princess.

It's just that the princess didn't think this was inappropriate as she imagined. Instead, she smiled gently: "I understand."

"Mother, don't you think there's anything wrong?"

Yuetao has been with Jingyi since she was a child. She has a straightforward temperament, and her ability to hold back her words was something she developed after being in the palace for a long time.

Jingyi got off the bed with a rosy complexion, without any signs of illness.

"What can I do? Your Majesty protects me. Is it possible that I still misinterpret His Majesty's meaning?"

Yuetao blinked, unable to understand.

Jing Yi shook her head gently and said to her: "Follow her quietly. If Emperor Qinrui needs me to solve something, just go and send the message directly. It's difficult for me to make decisions when I'm ill. Emperor Qinrui will make the final decision on all matters."

After Yuetao heard this, even if she didn't understand something, she didn't ask any more questions. She agreed and went to Qixiang Palace.

At the entrance of Qixiang Palace, Su Xin was waiting there alone.

"Where is that little girl?" Gu Qingyan got off the chariot and asked Su Xin.

"It's inside." Su Xin said, looking at Madam Feng with a troubled face.

Mrs. Feng saw something was wrong and asked her quickly: "What's going on?"

When Su Xin saw Gu Qingyan nodded, she said, "Let's bring the cup in. Madam Zhao heard that it was from Madam Feng, so she started to say a few unpleasant words, and then said that she was afraid that Madam Feng was going to murder her.

I have to let the little girl make tea and drink the first cup before letting me leave."

"It's hard for her." Gu Qingyan said silently.

She thought that no matter if she gave something in her name or Mrs. Feng's name, she would always be embarrassed, so she didn't think anything of it.

Just as Su Xing was about to say something, there was a sound of something falling to the ground.

Are you getting anxious so soon? Gu Qingyan thought to herself that Madam Zhao was losing her temper even before she even appeared on the stage. It seemed that things would progress much more smoothly than she imagined.

"Your Highness, we'd better go in quickly." Su Xin said with some regret, "Mrs. Zhao poured that cup of scalding tea directly into the little girl's mouth."

After hearing this, Gu Qingyan narrowed her eyes and reached out to hold Lady Feng who was about to rush in.

"You are a lady worthy of being a wife." Gu Qingyan glanced at Madam Feng, "As for that little maid, you feel sorry for her. Just treat her better in the future and give more support to the family."

Madam Feng looked back at Gu Qingyan, and she found that the eyes of Emperor Qinrui in front of her were so cold, as if her previous frowns and smiles were all adjustable movements, which could be present, but without any emotion.

Her hand was holding her wrist. She must be some kind of cold-blooded animal. The warmth from her fingers through her clothes was so cold.

When Gu Qingyan saw her staring at her hand, she let go immediately, raised her legs and walked in gracefully holding the shelf.

Before entering, she heard Mrs. Feng ask her: "What if Su Xin is the one who gets into trouble inside?"

Gu Qingyan did not answer, but said to the public: "We will find people to surround this place in a while. Don't let anyone out. If anyone wants to get out, they will be beaten to death."

"yes."

Gu Qingyan then took a step forward, and Eunuch Bu's voice sounded.

"Emperor Qinrui has arrived!"

Along with the sound of Mr. Bu's announcement, there was another sound of things breaking.

Someone came out to pick him up in the main hall, but Gu Qingyan didn't seem to care. He flicked his sleeves and walked straight to the dormitory where Madam Zhao lived.

Gonggong Bu signaled the lady who came out of the main hall to avoid it, and he followed closely to Lady Zhao's place.

As soon as Mr. Bu stood still with the crowd, he noticed that Gu Qingyan raised her hand, holding a round cup.

"Eunuch Bu, you should learn from your master when making this announcement, lest Madam Zhao get angry, and there is a lot of noise in the side hall. When the prince comes, Madam Zhao doesn't know how to pick her up, and breaks the rules."

Gu Qingyan pointed Sang Huai into the house, and when they saw her, everyone in the house, except Mrs. Zhao, had already knelt down.

At the place closest to Madam Zhao, Gu Qingyan saw the little girl next to Madam Feng. She had her head lowered and her neat bun now looked a little loose.

Gu Qingyan knelt down with her hands on the ground, and her unnaturally red hands made Gu Qingyan's eyes linger for a while.

"Ms. Zhao." Su Xin reminded in a low voice.

The powerful Emperor Ji had been standing in front of her for a while, and she had no intention of getting up to salute.

Gu Qingyan didn't say anything, and just looked at Madam Zhao condescendingly until her scalp went numb, then she stood up and said, "See the Emperor Ji and say hello to the Emperor Ji."

"I can't live alone."

Gu Qingyan was not polite and did not want to let her get up. He walked around her and took the main seat.

"Not long after Gucai entered the palace, Madam Feng came to ask for something. She said that she was angry with you yesterday and broke your set of cups. She wanted to borrow a set from Gu to return it to you..."

Gu Qingyan said and looked at the round cup in her hand.

"Hey, isn't that what it is? Why, Mrs. Zhao doesn't like it?"

Gu Qingyan herself thought it was quite beautiful, but looking at the fragments in that area and the wetland she just walked through, she felt a little pity.

"I dropped the cup on my own. There is no need for Mrs. Feng to find someone to support her and pretend to return the cup."

Madam Feng was about to say something, but Gu Qingyan looked at her again and told her to swallow her words.

"If that's the case, why would you bother a little girl who comes over to deliver things so nicely?"

As Gu Qingyan said this, Su Xin had already helped the maid up and checked her injuries.

After such a short period of time, I don't know how angry Mrs. Zhao was. Not only did the little maid's hands get burned red, but there were also a few pinch marks on her arms.

"The little guy was careless and smashed the things sent by His Highness and Madam Feng. This concubine is just a small punishment but a big warning."

Mrs. Zhao is very tough-talking.

Gu Qingyan raised her eyebrows: "Really?"

"The ones in Gu's hand were thrown by you. Also, I forgot to tell you that this set of cups was put into the Changle Palace warehouse by the prince on Gu's birthday last year..."

After Gu Qingyan finished speaking, she leaned over and lifted Madam Zhao's chin: "You said that the cup you dropped yesterday belongs to you, but I'm not so kind. Today, this set of cups was broken in your palace. Gu, just

This matter will be blamed on you."

This was the first time that Madam Zhao faced Gu Qingyan head-on. She moved her eyes from side to side, looking at Gu Qingyan's face and feeling inexplicably angry. This woman had deliberately mentioned the prince just now...

The more he thought about it, the more resentment gathered, and it was as if it was about to burst through his chest and spray onto Gu Qingyan's body wantonly.

Seeing the flames gradually igniting in her inky eyes, Gu Qingyan suddenly felt that this woman's eyes were slightly beautiful, a bit like Situ Haoyang's eyes.

Madam Zhao turned her head and broke away from Gu Qingyan's hand. Some things kept rolling in her mind: before and after Emperor Qinrui entered the palace, the prince would not enter the harem; they had never seen Emperor Qinrui before, but the palace

Everyone clearly knows the birthday of Emperor Qinrui, because every time it comes to that day, the Changle Palace is always brightly lit. If there are any rare or good things, the prince will send them to the Changle Palace, even if there is no one living there at all, so that later on

There is a special room in Changle Palace that is used as a warehouse, one by one, and many, many more. They have never seen Qinrui Emperor Ji, but they know how much the prince loves Qinrui Emperor Ji.

Last time, her palace servant only said a few words and was beaten and punished. Now she just made a small move on Madam Feng's person, and she came to vent his anger.

Looking at her face that was almost burning, Gu Qingyan wanted to laugh but tried her best to restrain it.

"Huh, Your Highness, do you want to challenge me now for this set of cups?" Madam Zhao snorted coldly.

Gu Qingyan smiled and waved the little girl who was trying not to cry to come forward: "You are the one who hurt Mrs. Feng after all. There is some misunderstanding between you two. A set of cups is a small matter, but the harem is not a big deal.

Already."

"Ms. Feng, what do you think?"

Gu Qingyan saw that Mrs. Feng next to her was almost fuming, so she had to give her a way to vent.

"Your Highness is right." Mrs. Feng gritted her teeth and pretended to be calm.

After saying that, she wanted to step forward to help Mrs. Zhao up, but the other party didn't accept her kindness. She threw her hand away and stood up without thinking about herself.

Mrs. Feng took advantage of the situation and fell down, falling onto the debris on the ground.

Gu Qingyan was also slightly shocked, but she also understood Mrs. Feng's intention. She immediately patted the armrest and stood up.

"What is this for?"

Gu Qingyan's drink frightened the lady in the main hall to come out again and stood by the door of her own hall, eavesdropping.

There was a little maid beside her. She didn't know what she was thinking. She rolled her eyes and quietly turned around and disappeared...

"Are you still lonely in your eyes?" Gu Qingyan recalled how the adults in the palace looked when they were angry, and asked the two ladies in front of her.

Madam Feng wanted to get up from the ground, but when she touched her hand, there was blood on it.

Gu Qingyan glanced at it and ordered coldly: "Why are you standing there in a daze, Su Xin, go tell the imperial doctor!"

"Yes." At the moment, only Su Xin can go out to avoid being killed by the stick.

"Your Highness is watching. I somehow offended Madam Zhao. I kindly wanted to help her up. She...she..."

Madam Feng started to cry, holding her hands full of blood, feeling aggrieved.

His eyes, which were already red, now made him even more distressed.
