Chapter 1559 - Kicking the Palace Door Open V (2/2)
However, seeing that she did not approach Qi Qin’er, the tense face of the palace maid relaxed. She was really afraid that n.o.ble Consort Lin would really do something to the princess, taking advantage of the empress’s absence.
Good thing she knew her place and did not take a step closer to the princess.

After the empress left the princess’s bedroom, she went straight to the little fatty’s room.
Not knowing why, she felt a little uneasy as her fingers subconsciously tugged the placket by her neck. She took a deep breath before opening the room door.
Those guards only disallowed the little fatty to step outside, but they did not stop the empress from entering. Therefore, she entered the room without hindrance.
At this moment, the little fatty was crying his eyes out, just like a fat little kitten.
After he saw the empress, he wailed loudly before rus.h.i.+ng over to her.
“Imperial Mother, how is Elder Sister?”
The empress felt her heart tightened. She patted the little fatty’s head as she lowered her gaze to ask, “Tell me, was it, or was it not Qin’er and your fault yesterday?”
Little Fatty immediately shook his head. “It was not our fault. It was that despicable citizen that ran into elder sister twice in a row, and I felt that he had done it on purpose. So, I wanted to punish him on Elder Sister’s behalf. Who knew that Feng Lianyi indiscriminately framed elder sister and me!”
“Alright,” the empress clenched her fists tightly. “As long as it is not both your fault… then that’s good.”
“Imperial Mother…” Little Fatty raised his head. “You believe us?”
The empress hesitated for a moment but finally spoke the truth. “It is because Qin’er said… you had gotten into a disagreement with Feng Lianyi for the sake of saving her.”
What she meant was that the one she believed in was Qi Qin’er.
Indeed, compared to the little fatty who was used to being evil, the naïve, innocent, matured, and obedient Qi Qin’er made others trust her very easily.
