Pei Yuanhao didn't stay at Chang Qing for too long. After eating the pastry in his hand, he left.

When he left, Chang Qing and I stood up together to salute. When he walked to the door, he looked back and saw me lowering my head and hanging my lashes. Without saying anything, he turned around and left.

The heavy and soft curtain fell down, swaying, and a few wisps of cold wind blew in, making my face paler a little. When the curtains were already stable, Chang Qing slowly stood up straight, turned her head to look at me, and I also raised my head to look at her.

I thought she would ask me what Pei Yuanhao said to me and how I answered, but she didn't say anything. After looking at me for a while, she turned around and walked back to the table to sit down, reached out and stroked Miaoyan, who was still sitting dullly at the table. Seeing me standing aside, she said softly: "Come and sit."

I walked over and sat next to her.

Her hand gently stroked Miaoyan's long hair and said, "Speaking of this, she has been in the palace for a long time. This is the first time I have seen her so close. Usually, the emperor is taking care of her, and Miss Su Su follows her. I have no room for intervention."

I said softly: "I am grateful for the Queen."

She gently stroked Miaoyan's cheek with her fingers: "The little princess looks so beautiful like you."

"Empress Xie praises."

"But... her eyebrows look very much like the emperor."

“…”

"When you grow up in the future, you will definitely be a beautiful woman who will be beautiful in the world."

“…”

I felt a bitter smell on my tongue, which made me frown slightly, and I was silent for a moment, and I said, "I just hope she is safe and healthy, and I don't ask for anything else."

When Chang Qing heard this, she smiled, put her hand back on the table, and turned to look at me.

She said: "You can live in Jingren Palace these days. I have just asked them to clean them up."

I looked at her.

"It's right in the back yard, very clean and quiet."

"Um."

"It's better for Madam Wu to serve you, and Miss Su Su. Since the Emperor keeps the little princess by your side, Miss Su Su will definitely send her over."

"Um."

"You can go over and see if there is anything missing. Let me tell you about it, and you can also find Eunuch Yu."

"yes."

Seeing that I was a little silent and even tired, she paused for a moment, and then said, "Do you have anything else to tell me?"

I looked up at her. She was still as gentle and kind as ever. It was not much different from when I left Linshui Pagoda and came to Jingren Palace to take care of Nianshen. In the past, I always felt that Pei Yuanhao was like an ice cellar. Some things in his body were frozen like this, which made him not change much. Now it seems that his queen, like him, had a kind of coldness engraved in her bones. Chang Qing's body was also like an ice cellar, and everything could be kept longer than others.

For example, appearance.

For example, feelings...

But I know that I was far away from that time.

I thought silently for a while, and then said, "This time I came to the palace, and I had no arrangements and no considerations in advance. It was an impulse move, so I might have to trouble the Queen in the palace these days."

She understood what I meant and said, "That's what it means to let you live in Jingren Palace."

I said again: "And that's right, I will leave the palace on the first day of the Lunar New Year."

She was slightly shocked and looked at me.

"At that time, I hope the Queen will open the door of convenience for me."

This time, Chang Qing did not speak immediately, but lowered her eyelids slightly. After a while of silence, she said softly: "I suddenly remembered that you asked me for something."

I looked at her without saying a word.

"You said that if one day you can go out with only one step away from the palace gate. If you don't affect me or harm me, let me definitely help you with that step."

"But this time, I don't think this will happen."

"oh?"

"Actually, the people in the palace may not want me to stay, and His Majesty the Emperor should not make things difficult for me this time."

"Then, why do you ask me?"

“I just don’t want any surprises.”

“…”

Chang Qing looked at me silently for a while, then nodded gently: "Okay."

Just as we finished speaking, Kouer walked in from outside with a food box in his hand and looked strange. Chang Qing turned around and frowned slightly: "What is this?"

"If you go back to the queen, this is what Concubine Nangong asked Ruizhu to send it."

“…”

“…”

Both her and I were silent.

I have a feeling of not knowing whether to laugh or what to do.

Kou'er said again: "Ruizhu said, Nangong Jieyu told me that the little princess didn't have breakfast there just now, so she was afraid that the little princess would be hungry, so she asked her to send it here."

After saying that, she carried the box to the table, Chang Qing gave her a wink and opened the box. There was a large bowl of steaming shredded chicken porridge and several plates of exquisite side dishes inside.

Chang Qing looked at the things inside, and after a while, she said with a smile: "She is really interested."

After saying that, I looked up at me. At this time, I had no strength to get angry. I just took a lazy look, then stood up and said, "Empress, I will take Miaoyan back first."

She smiled and waved her hand: "Go."

After saying that, I saluted and walked out with Miaoyan. When I walked out of the door, I heard Chang Qing's faint order to throw away the things, and Kou'er agreed.

Walk to the yard that Chang Qing arranged for me.

As she said, it was both clean and quiet. Perhaps when Pei Yuanhao was talking there, she had already ordered someone to come and clean up. When she went in, she saw that everything was neatly tidy. Except for the stove that had just moved in, the room had not been completely heated up, everything else was very suitable.

And as Chang Qing said, Su Su was indeed assigned by Pei Yuanhao.

This time, there was no outsider here, and Su Su even cried bitterly in my arms. Although she used to always help me with the family affairs like a little adult, she was just a little girl and had never seen such a big scene. She was suddenly sent to the emperor. When she arrived at a place where fangs and everyone was hiding their traitors, it was no wonder that she became fragile.

I hugged her and comforted her softly for a long time before she finally stopped crying.

I asked her to get some food for Miaoyan. She probably stayed in the palace for a while and was familiar with her. She came back soon. A little palace maid followed her and brought her hot porridge and side dishes, as well as some snacks. I sat at the table and slowly fed Miaoyan. Although she was crying like that in the Qingfen Palace just now, it was very quiet at this time. When the things were delivered to her mouth, the spoon would slowly open her mouth when she touched her lower lip. She would eat everything obediently and not picky at all.

But looking at her "behaved" will only make my heart cut off.

Now is not the time for me to cry, nor is it the time for me to fall into a mood. I still have too much to consider, about me and about her future.

As I was feeding Miaoyan, Su Su stood quietly beside her, her eyes couldn't help but become wet again, and she said in a crying voice: "It's fine now, Miss Miaoyan, Miss Miaoyan finally feels it."

As soon as I heard her, I asked, "Has she always been like that before?"

"For a long time I entered the palace, Miss Miaoyan was the same as when she was on the road. She didn't know how painful it was, and she didn't know how hungry she was. She was afraid that someone would stab her with a needle. Not long after I entered the palace, the Empress often sent people to ask, "I got along with Kouer and others. When they talked about the past, I realized that the people in the palace were so bad, and there were even people who were not born, for fear that the empresses would come to harm her, and they were worried every day."

When I heard her words, I felt like I was stabbed by a needle in my heart.

"Then, they—"

"This young lady can rest assured," she said, wiping the tears at the corners of her eyes, saying, "The emperor has always brought Miss Miaoyan with her. Even if he goes to court, he will ask Eunuch Yu and the others to take care of her."

“…”

"But, Miss Miaoyan started to cry and laugh recently, but she was so terrible that she could cry. Only the emperor could coax her. But once, she cried so hard that she choked up."

When I heard this, my face changed so much that I was scared: "What?"

"That time, the emperor was frightened. Eunuch Yu and the others were shouting that they would call the imperial doctor, but he couldn't wait at all, so he just hugged Miss Miaoyan and left."

“…”

"After a while, he came back with Miss Miaoyan in his arms, and it was fine."

My heart skipped a beat and I asked hurriedly: "Where has he been holding Miaoyan?"

"I don't know this," Su Su shook her head and said, "Eunuch Yu didn't know. That time he didn't let the people around him follow him, so he took Miss Miaoyan away alone."

“…”

I frowned.

Eunuch Yu originally wanted to call the imperial doctor over, but Pei Yuanhao didn't wait at all, which means that Miaoyan's problem was not solved by the imperial doctor.

So, who solved it?

Who else in this palace has such great ability to solve such difficult and complicated diseases? Moreover, when Pei Yuanhao went to see him, he did not let the people around him follow him and personally hug Miaoyan.

A figure appeared in my heart in a daze.

However, I didn't continue thinking about it, but fed Miaoyan a spoonful of porridge. She ate it obediently. I turned around and asked Susu, "When did Miaoyan start to cry and laugh?"
