Ever since the last incident of his Blue Bird Hall being humiliated, Lan Ruo'er had been unwilling to leave his Red Sleeve Palace for many days.
Lan Ruo'er had always been telling herself in her heart that Qin Feng was not the kind of person that she thought she was, and she definitely had not done it on purpose for him to see, so Lan Ruo'er had wanted to stay in the Red Sleeve Palace to calm down for a while because of this matter. Otherwise, she would have been worried that it wouldn't be natural when she saw Qin Feng.
”Princess Yi Yang, empress's servant, Qin Chen, is outside waiting for you. She said that she came here on empress's orders, and that she has something for you.” Princess Yi Yang's palace maid reported to Lan Ruo'er.
Lan Ruo'er was obviously startled when she heard this, and couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in her heart. She thought that if Qin Feng were to deliberately mock her, this thing must definitely not be a good thing. Thinking to this point, a trace of determination flashed across Lan Ruo'er's eyes.
”Let her in. Don't be so boisterous. Treat her with respect.” Even if Lan Ruo'er was angry with Qin Feng, Lan Ruo'er thought that she had overthought things and still had to treat him with courtesy.
The palace maid nodded and walked towards the Red Sleeve Palace entrance.
”This is the medicine given by the empress to Princess Yi Yang. She said that Princess Yi Yang's health was not good before and was often affected by the cold. Our queen said that Princess Yi Yang should take this medicine on time. Three bowls of water, cut into a bowl.” As Qin Chen said this, he passed the medicine bag in her hands to the Red Sleeve Palace palace maid.
”Sister Qin Chen, Princess Yi Yang has specifically asked me to treat you with me as a servant, do you want Sister Qin Chen to come in and take a seat?” The palace maid with the Red Sleeve Palace said very politely, but Qin Chen shook her head and said: ”empress still has some things to instruct Qin Chen to do, so he won't go in for now. Thank Princess Yi Yang on behalf of Qin Chen.”
After Qin Chen left, he returned to report to Qin Feng about the situation of the Red Sleeve Palace.
”So you're saying, Princess Yiyang invited you in to take a seat?” Qin Feng raised her eyebrows and asked with a complex expression. However, when she saw Qin Chen nod her head, she was pleased.
”empress, Princess Yi Yang is really a good person. She even told me to enter the Red Sleeve Palace, but I refused according to your orders.” Qin Chen said coldly, but her tone carried absolute respect. The person Qin Chen had always admired the most was Qin Feng, and she was willing to wait upon him for her entire life.
”Hopefully, I didn't hurt her heart that day. If that's the case, then I really will feel extremely guilty.” As she said this, Qin Feng had a face full of worry, afraid that she would accidentally hurt Lan Ruo'er.
Hearing Qin Feng's words, Qin Chen gave a shallow smile and said: ”empress need not worry, since Princess Yi Yang accepted the medicine from the Empress, then she will not be angry with the Empress, so I think you shouldn't think too much about it.”
After Qin Feng heard what Qin Chen said, she shook her head and said thoughtfully: ”A human heart is not that simple. Taking the herbs does not mean that one does not have any grudges in one's heart. We still have to observe and observe first, I do not want the harem to fall into a battle because of some unnecessary matters.
Qin Chen firmly nodded her head and said: ”Yes, Qin Chen will definitely help empress. empress can rest assured.”
However, the current Red Sleeve Palace was a completely different scene.
”Princess, this is the medicine sent by empress's servant Qin Chen. Princess, she said that as long as you consume it regularly, you will be able to prevent yourself from catching a cold.” When the palace maid said that, Lan Ruo'er had already received the medicine from the palace maid's hands.
She placed it on her nose and took a light sniff. Although Lan Ruo'er did not know any medical skills, but the smell was exactly the same as the one Qin Feng gave her before, and it looked the same as well. However, the herb Qin Feng gave her last time was extremely useful, so she knew that Qin Feng was not harming her.
”Princess, can we use this medicine?” The palace maid looked at the medicinal herb in Lan Ruo'er's hand suspiciously, she was still a little worried. But Lan Ruo'er laughed lightly and said: ”Looks like I have thought too much about it, empress really does care about Xiao'er, it is Xiao'er who is too petty.”
Lan Ruo'er realised that she had wrongly blamed Qin Feng, she was a kind and kind person and would never do anything evil to him, thus, Lan Ruo'er instructed the palace maids to fry the medicinal herbs, at that time, she could not bear to disappoint her good intentions.
However, at this time, the sound of the emperor's arrival suddenly sounded outside the door. Lan Ruo'er didn't dare believe her ears. She stood up in a panic, wanting to wash up, but it was too late. Xuanyuan Zhiling was already standing in front of her.
”There's no need to pack up. We've all come in.” Xuanyuan Zhiling stood in front of Lan Ruo'er and said coldly.
Standing before Xuanyuan Zhi Ling, he looked a little awkward, with a hint of surprise and shyness on his face.
”Why did the emperor suddenly come to find Na'er? Could it be …” Lan Ruo'er had just finished speaking when Xuanyuan Zhiling suddenly interrupted him.
”brother came here to see how you've been doing.” Xuanyuan Zhiling's voice was still cold and indifferent, the two words' brother 'had deeply stung Lan Ruo'er's heart, but this was the truth, and Lan Ruo'er could only tacitly agree to not speak.
Lan Ruo'er smiled lightly, but compared to when she had just met Xuanyuan Zhiling, he was less happy, instead, there was an additional trace of disappointment.
