Xiao Ran watched the figure slowly disappear behind the gauze curtain, and the naivety and sickness on his face was swept away. Although his face was still pale, at least he was not that fragile.
He admitted that he pretended to be so pitiful because he wanted to win sympathy, and he succeeded in gaining her pity, but he wanted more than that.
He could see that although Qingyan cared about him, if the concubine hadn't brought her in, she probably wouldn't have taken the initiative to visit him in the palace.
He still remembered what she said, if he can't let him go, he can't even be a friend.
Once she got serious, she was very cruel.
I didn't know her temperament before, but now I fully understand it.
Although the words that the father had said before gave him a bottom line, he didn't know what the father was going to do, and now the mother and concubine brought over her face and gave him a glimmer of hope.
But as long as the father and the mother are on his side, he has nothing to be afraid of.
Qingyan, this time, I will never let you go!
Xiao Ran looked at the empty bowl on the table, raised his lips slightly, and closed his eyes again.
Concubine Yue was in the outer hall. When she was drinking tea, she saw Chu Qingyan walking out slowly and asked, "Is Your Highness asleep?"
"Yes, I fell asleep after taking the medicine." Chu Qingyan replied following her words.
Concubine Yue nodded, and continued to drink a sip of tea before saying, "In these days, I have to persuade him to drink a bowl of medicine for a long time. I didn't expect him to cooperate like this when you came. It's really rare."
"It may be that the Fourth Highness knew that the Empress was worried and could not bear to let down your good intentions. His Highness is a very filial child." Chu Qingyan replied one after another.
Concubine Yue smiled, she still didn't know her own child.
If you are really filial, you will not lie on the bed and make trouble.
Chu Qingyan glanced at the tea handed to her by the palace attendant, did not touch it, but stood up again with a smile and respectfully said to Concubine Yue, "Niangniang, since Your Highness has already slept soundly, then Qingyan will not bother, wait a minute. The next time I enter the palace, I will visit His Highness again, and I will retire with a smile on my face."
Just as she finished speaking, before turning around, the teacup in Concubine Yue's hand fell heavily on the table, and the hall was suddenly silent.
Chu Qingyan pretended to be ignorant and looked at her.
Concubine Yue looked at her enchanting and charming face, and she couldn't stand it in her heart. However, she was bewitched by her appearance, and she didn't even know that this person didn't have him in her eyes at all!
If Chu Qingyan knew that Concubine Yue thought of her so much, she would probably have raised her head and smiled.
What the human mind thinks is what the eyes can see!
Objectively speaking, Chu Qingyan does not look coquettish, only the evil spirit of Dongting Wangyu can be called seductive. On the contrary, she can be said to be very beautiful. Although she often wears crimson clothes, it makes her look more attractive. Dusty.
"Chu Qingyan, do you think you can get out of this palace after entering this palace?" Concubine Yue said indifferently.
Chu Qingyan narrowed her eyes, finally showing the fox's tail
"Concubine Yue, I don't understand Qingyan's words." She looked at her calmly and replied slowly.
Concubine Yue sneered, "No, this palace knows what you understand, and to be honest with you, if Ran'er's illness is not cured, you will never want to step out of the palace!"
With the blatant threat of Concubine Yue's words, Chu Qingyan couldn't hold back the anger in her heart and said bluntly, "You want to put me under house arrest?"
"You are presumptuous! How dare you talk to the empress like this, and someone will slap her mouth!" The Jiang mama on the side no longer had the gentleness and modesty before, incarnation of Rong mama, as soon as she came up, she would be punished physically.
Chu Qingyan took a step forward and gave Jiang Mama a cold look, "You dare!"
Mammy Jiang was shocked by her aura, but when she reacted to her anger and wanted to slap her mouth in person, she was stopped by Concubine Yue.
"Mother Jiang, you step back."
Madam Jiang reluctantly stepped back and stared at her fiercely.
Chu Qingyan snorted lightly and withdrew her gaze from Mammy Jiang, and looked at Concubine Yue coldly.
At this time, Concubine Yue touched the coldness in her eyes, and she was also a little stunned. Before, she was still obedient and ravaged, but now she just changed her eyes, and the whole person felt completely different.
But what's the use even if she's angry? Still not under her control
Concubine Yue wiped the corners of her mouth with the handkerchief, ignoring Chu Qingyan's anger, and straightening the front of her clothes, she said slowly, "Don't say it so badly, it would be better to use other words for house arrest, such as Talk about being a guest."
Hearing these words, Chu Qingyan was about to be angry. This person was quite shameless when he said it, and he was quite agile when he opened his eyes and said nonsense.
"Concubine Yue, Qingyan is the fiancée of the King of England who was given by His Majesty personally. I'm afraid it's not a good idea to stay in the palace for a long time! And it will also have a bad influence on the Fourth Highness. After all, in half a month, the Fourth Highness will I'm engaged to Miss Jing." Chu Qingyan said with a smile, her eyes were locked tightly on Concubine Yue in front of her.
"Chu Qingyan, this palace knows that you are very smart, otherwise King Ying wouldn't risk the crime of deceiving the king to let you go to the battlefield and defeat Nan Cang. The battlefield, so this palace advises you to stay in the palace obediently and not to cause trouble."
Concubine Yue's half-smiley words made Chu Qingyan stiffen on the spot.
Although she only mentioned this matter lightly, there was a strong sense of threat in her words.
She actually knew that she had disguised herself as a man before going to the battlefield
This matter has obviously been covered up, and she doesn't want to be revealed, so it seems that she has left herself in the palace without fear.
If the big ice cubes make trouble in the palace, she also has a way to make them settle their losses.
It's just that what she is more worried about is whether Emperor Xixuan knows about this. Emperor Xixuan was always afraid of big ice cubes. If they knew about it, they would be trapped in big ice cubes in injustice.
Seeing the changing expression on Chu Qingyan's face, Concubine Yue smiled clearly, and then said to the palace maid beside her, "Take Miss Chu down to rest, and when the Fourth Highness wakes up, she will be brought over."
"Yes," the palace maid walked in front of Chu Qingyan and stretched out her hand, "Miss Chu, please."
Chu Qingyan looked at the proud look on Concubine Yue's face, she couldn't let out her anger, she could only turn around and leave in anger.
After the hall was quiet again, Madam Jiang asked very puzzled, "Mother, why don't you let the old slave teach Chu Qingyan a lesson, frustrate her spirit, and see if she dares to contradict you next time!"
"You are too impulsive. If Ran'er saw the wound on her face, how would you explain it?" Concubine Yue gave her a disapproving look, and then she chuckled, "There are thousands of ways to teach people. Why choose such a low-level one."
Originally, Madam Jiang was still a little remorseful, but when she heard the back, her eyes lit up, and she nodded knowingly, "Old slave knows."
