Li Xiuse was startled for a moment, then said with a smile: ”This is unique to Great Qi, have you ever drank it for your future wife?”

Xue Ronghua was afraid that his mouth would leak out the truth, and she immediately said: I have heard of it, but not tasted it.

”Then we've come to the right place today,” Li Xiuse said as she smiled and took the cup of tea. ”Try it, if it's really as everyone says, the best in the world.”

Xue Ronghua slowly lifted the lid of the cup, took a sniff of the fragrance inside, and then took a small sip. She felt that the fragrance of the flowers that she smelled when she opened the lid on had already turned into spring water that flowed down her throat and into her internal organs, ”It is indeed as the people had said, a rare taste of delicacy in the human world.” She lowered her eyes. This was indeed the feeling of home that she had not tasted for a long time.

Li Xiuse laughed, ”The Great Qin cannot grow this fragrant tea, so I brought some from the Great Qi.”

Xue Ronghua had an idea, and said: ”Why don't you offer this tea to your majesty, it will definitely brighten your majesty's eyes.”

Li Xiuse looked at her blankly. ”Your Majesty … Does he like tea? ”

”Of course, all the tea in the world has entered Your Majesty's mouth,” Xue Ronghua smiled as she looked at her. ”However, your majesty should not have tasted this tea before because Great Qi has not given this tea to your majesty as a gift.”

A trace of hesitation flashed through Li Xiuse's eyes. ”I heard from the quasi wangfei's words that she seems to be very familiar with the Great Qi, to the point where she even knows what gift the Emperor of Great Qi has given her.”

Xue Ronghua's hands that were carrying the tea paused heavily, and she said anxiously in her heart: ”The strongly fragrant tea has a special meaning, there's an endless war going on between the Qi Qin, the Emperor of Great Qi shouldn't give this tea.”

”Quasi-wangfei's analysis is very reasonable.”

”This subject's daughter is only guessing randomly …”

”Being acquainted with Jun Chu is like returning home from an old friend,” Li Xiuse lowered her eyes, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.

Xue Ronghua raised her head to look at her meaningful gaze, and thousands of thoughts flooded her mind. Her body trembled, and she almost blurted out the truth, but who knew that Consort Fu would suddenly use a handkerchief to block her face.

”Empress …”

”After the quasi wangfei accompanies me in speaking these words, I think she's also tired,” Li Xiuse revealed a friendly smile, ”Shouxiang, escort the Empress out of the Acacia Hall.”

Confused, Xue Ronghua stood up, but Li Xiuse had covered half of her face in the shadows, so she could not see the expression on her face.

”Quasi-wangfei, when you have the time to enter the palace, come here and drink some fragrant tea.”

”Miss, Miss.”

Xue Ronghua recovered from her meditation and looked at Little Zhui's worried eyes.

”Miss, what's wrong? You just came out of Consort Fu and you're in a trance.”

Xue Ronghua tightly held onto her clothes absentmindedly, and said softly: ”It's nothing, the autumn wind is giving me a headache.”

Little Zhui covered up the curtains and said: ”Consort Fu treats Miss very well, when you talk about home, you seem to be an old friend.”

Xue Ronghua was startled, ”You also think that we're old friends?”

”I'm saying that the Consort Fu and the young miss are old friends,” Little Zhui said in confusion. ”If the young miss and the Consort Fu have a good relationship, it's a fortunate thing. After all, the empress doesn't really like the young miss.

Xue Ronghua's eyes dimmed, ”You're right, the Consort Fu is very friendly, let's go visit the Cheng Huan Palace in the future.”

”She's a good person in Consort Fu, her big sister Shouxiang in the palace is also not bad, her speech is fast and straightforward,” Little Zhui laughed and said, ”But that new palace maid is a bit timid, curled up in the corner like a kitten. If it wasn't for me, I wouldn't even be able to see her.”

Xue Ronghua was no longer in the mood to listen to what she had to say. Just now, at the Joyous Union Palace, Li Xiuse had become suspicious of her, but at this critical moment, she cut off the conversation and did not continue the conversation, as if she was given a chance.

She raised her head and let out a soft sigh. Li Xiuse was still the same gentle and gentle woman she was when she was young, not changing in the slightest. However, for the greater good of the situation, she still had to put up a good show in front of her and not let the fact that she was reborn become a huge disaster.

The palanquin had finally reached the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xue Ronghua decided to think about these trivial matters in the future, and settle the matters related to Chu Zongge first. She opened the curtain and saw Xue Longhu and a group of servants waiting at the entrance of the residence.

”Father,” Xue Ronghua smiled as she walked in front of him, ”The wind is cold outside, why is father standing outside the door?”

”I saw that you didn't even come for half a day, and then directly came to the door to pick you up,” Xue Longhu said as he wrapped her up in his hands, saying, ”Actually it's fine if you live in the palace, you don't have to worry about me.”

Xue Ronghua thought it was funny. Xue Longhu had never come to the Prime Minister's Mansion's entrance to receive her. She was different even if she became a national general, to actually enjoy such treatment. After all, our daughter hasn't passed the gate. We can't always stay in the palace and be looked at by others. ”

Xue Longhu glanced at Little Zhui, ”Yi, Zhu Tong didn't come back with you?”

Xue Ronghua was startled, ”Zhu Tong entered the palace?”

Xue Longhu nodded his head, ”She said that he wanted to go to the palace to see you and Prince Duan.”

Xue Ronghua immediately looked at Little Zhui, ”Have you seen Zhu Tong at Xinyang Hall?”

Little Zhui shook her head, at a loss, ”No, I also didn't know that Zhu Tong had actually entered the palace.”

”Didn't she come to the palace to look for you?” Xue Longhu was confused.

Xue Ronghua's heart sank, and a bad premonition arose from the bottom of her heart.

”Little Zhui, go find him!”
