Finished speaking, Ling Yexuan turned around and without looking back, he walked towards the door. With a ”peng” sound, he slammed the door.
Qin Nuo patted her chest and heaved a sigh of relief. As expected, the Miss Jing Er could not be mentioned carelessly.
But... It had almost been a month, yet there was no news from Number Six!
”Empress!” ”Peaches, come in.” Why did the Prince … I seem to be angry! ”
”No, it doesn't seem like it. He's really angry!” Qin Nuo smiled and looked towards the door. He did not see Ming Liu, that gossipy girl, so it was a little strange. Where's Ming Liu? ”
”Ming Liu was called away by the prince. I wonder where she went!” As Bi Tao and his group spoke, they secretly observed Qin Nuo's expression.
Empress is really calm! If it was their young mistress, she would have long been furious!
Although Miss was the stepmother, the Lady was virtuous and had no daughter. She had always treated the Lady as her own and raised her in a pampered manner. Although the Miss was usually a little willful, she was still alright. There was only one thing. If she was truly angered, it would take a while for her to get over it and she would not be able to persuade her. The few young masters in the mansion were all somewhat afraid of her and were very accommodating to her!
Peaches could not help but sigh and speak softly.
”Sometimes men like women to have a little temper and then to coax them! With how calm the Empress is, I'm afraid you will suffer! ”
Qin Nuo's eyes flickered as she smiled at the peaches.
”Aren't you — quite indifferent?”
In the next few days, Ling Yexuan left very early and returned very late. According to Ming Liu, the Duke stayed at the Warm Heart Pavilion for the past two nights, and would occasionally visit other Kikuji.
Even without Ming Liu's warning, Qin Nuo could tell from the expressions of the Kikuji s that they were here to pay their respects. There were two or three who became shy and timid. The looks they looked at her with and the words they said weren't that sour anymore.
On this day, Qin Nuo specially got up early and ordered the little girl to go tell the concubines that there was no need to come and pay respects, and to order the peaches to change clothes like they used to.
”Ming Liu, go change into the clothes you wore on that day and follow me out of the house.” Qin Nuo said with a smile. I'll have to make you another two sets of clothes today. It's not like you can always wear this every time you leave the house. ”
Ah? Ming Liu immediately opened her eyes wide, and looked at her Empress with a face full of fear. What the Empress meant was, 'When I leave the estate in the future, will there be more?' The prince didn't get annoyed twice, but if the Empress got used to leaving the palace, it would be strange if she didn't get angry!
”Let's do it first, what if it's useful in the future?” Qin Nuo smiled as she looked at Ming Liu. Ming Liu's little thoughts had never escaped her eyes.
Fine! Ming Liu shrunk her neck and quickly changed her clothes to come over. When she looked at Peaches, she was no longer as distressed as when the Empress had left the palace. She had clearly gotten used to it much faster.
”Peaches, you must be careful. In the past few days, although Zhuo Tao had been pretending in front of the Empress, once she left, she couldn't figure out anything, and kept tormenting her into looking at people she did not like. ” Ming Liu said. This was no longer as carefree and leisurely as it was in the ”Qinxin”. She had to first explain it clearly to Peaches so that she wouldn't suffer a hidden loss.
”I know!” ”Yes,” Peaches replied with a smile. You have to follow the Empress well and come back early. ”
”I will definitely make it back before you, your highness. Don't worry!” Ming Liu said, and secretly glanced at Qin Nuo. I hope the Empress will not be angry because of her decision.
Qin Nuo laughed, she did not plan to stay outside, it was only to relax, could it be that she was hoping to find out news of Ling Qihuai from the outside?
Unexpectedly, after walking out of the alley and turning a corner, they saw a lively place surrounded by many people.
”Miss, could it be that another person has sold himself to bury his father?” Ming Liu immediately asked, her eyes sparkling. ”This girl, she always had a conflicted expression before she came out, but now she looks so excited.” If there's another one, I'll buy it this time. ”
