”I beg your grace, Your Highness. Hong Liang has served you for so many years in the Seventh Prince's Mansion, and even if you don't have any merits, you still have to put in some hard work. If you just kick her out like this, others will say that our Prince's Mansion is not good in the future.” The chubby Wang mama spoke with a sheen of sweat on her face.
Su Qing fell silent.
The other thin Senior Servant Li saw something was going on, so she also knelt down and said, ”Prince, we don't have many women in our residence to begin with. Hong Liang is also your most convenient servant. If she isn't here, who will take care of you in the future?”
The corner of her clear lips curled up slightly.
At this moment, Hong Liang saw the smile on her lips and was so shocked that cold sweat started forming on her back. She had seen the smile on her face before, the smile that was warm when she saw Qiao Liangjin, the smile that was pampered on her face, and the smile that was indulgent.
When the two mama saw Hong Liang shake her head, they thought they hadn't said enough, so they continued, ”Even if the Royal Concubine were to enter the sect in the future, she would still need servants to wait upon her. Your Royal Highness, there is a need to have a nimble maid in the palace.”
He turned his head to look at Hong Liang who was kneeling on the ground. With a clear voice that was as cold as March frost, he said, ”This King has never realized that you, Hong Liang, are actually so popular in the Prince's Mansion.”
Hong Liang felt her entire body go cold as she heard this question. She kowtowed and said, ”Your highness, spare me! Your highness, spare me! Your servant does not dare! Your servant does not dare!”
The two mama who'd originally come over to plead immediately froze and looked at each other in dismay. They hadn't thought that clearing up would have such a reaction.
Looking at Hong Liang who was kneeling on the ground, she coughed lightly and said, ”Since the two mama like you so much, you two can go back together. You are not allowed to enter the Royal City ever again.”
The two mama turned pale with fright. Originally, they could have received far more silver from the Seventh Prince's estate than from any other place. This kind of potential customer couldn't be wished for no matter what.
The two mama kowtowed continuously, begging for forgiveness. ”Your Highness, please spare the servants.”
Su Qingyun picked his ears and asked impatiently, ”What's going on? Can't you understand what I'm saying?”
Several guards stepped forward and dragged the three of them out. After clearing the room, they turned around to close the door, blocking the sound of crying.
When Bai Wu had carried Qiao Liangjin to find him, he had told himself that he wouldn't be able to keep his even if there was the slightest danger. Hong Liang was no longer the same servant girl who only cared for him, and he could feel that she had to think of a way to eliminate all the potential dangers around her.
Thinking of her heart, he knew that Qiao Liangjin was in Cha Zhen's heart. His index finger and big thumb gently rubbed together. Some answers to these questions were in someone's hands, and he suddenly had the thought of visiting his respected elder brother.
When Su Shu arrived at the royal study, he saw Su Chen coming to find him. He was surprised and pleasantly surprised. He kept waving for Su Qing Qing to sit in front of him to play chess with him.
Qing Qing sat down obediently opposite of Su Shun. With a white chess piece in her hand, she smiled and said, ”This little brother has gone too far. Even today, when I saw my royal brother, I still didn't kneel.”
Su Shun then waved his hand and smiled, ”Qing Er, you are sixteen years old and I have not mentioned it. Although I am your elder brother in name, I am about the same as your father.”
Su Chen cleared his throat. Su Shun was right. From babbling and learning to being sensible, Su Shun would always be by his side whenever he had the time to teach him how to read and write. He even started to teach him the art of emperor very early.
After the Queen died three times in succession, she became the murderer in everyone's eyes. Everyone thought that it was because she had killed the Emperor, and because he was afraid that the Emperor would take away what belonged to him if he had a child, the descendants of the Emperor would be poisoned.
Su Ling took down his chess piece and looked at Su Qing who was still in a daze. He smiled and said: ”What happened today? There seems to be something on his mind. ”
”Are you the one who put the Chastity Heart in the Prime Minister's Mansion? As I said that, I put down the white chess piece. ”
Su Shun didn't expect to ask this question and asked calmly, ”Why do you say so?”
”Instinct.”
”Intuition? It's all women's stuff, Seventh Brother, do you think This Emperor will believe you? ”
”Whether you believe me or not, I have already asked. As for whether His Majesty is telling the truth, I have no confidence at all.” The question was deftly thrown back to Su Shun.
Su Shun stopped and looked at Huaixin. The Huaixin nodded and left the room, standing at the door.
