Liu Jingyu had just hinted to Xiefeng, and Xiefeng was also very pleasing, and his words were also very pleasing, so Liu Jingyu was very satisfied.
When she came here in the past, there were too many people staring at her, and she didn't dare to get too close to the people around Ji Youran. Now that Xie Feng is here, it's a good thing.
"Xiefeng, go and help the concubine up." Liu Jingyu ordered.
"Empress, Empress." Xie Feng finally came out, rushed towards Ji Youran, and cried anxiously, but he did not dare to push the responsibility onto Qu Moying.
He helped Ji Youran stand up from the window and sat back in front of the bed, still looking indifferent and wooden.
Liu Jingyu looked at Ji Youran again, told the people in the courtyard to take good care of her, and then left with Qu Moying.
Waiting for the Crown Princess to leave with her people, Xie Feng sent them to the door of the house. He saw the Crown Princess and Princess Ying lead their people out of the yard, and listened carefully. Knowing that they had left, he turned around and went back into the house.
When he reached the door of the inner room, he deliberately closed it.
"What did the Crown Princess say?" She had just finished her work when she heard Ji Youran's cold voice behind her.
Xie Feng hurriedly turned around and stepped forward to greet Ji Youran: "Madam Concubine."
"The Queen of England suspects me." Ji Youran gritted her teeth and spoke word by word.
"Princess Ying...she...she couldn't have known anything. She was still in the manor at that time, a worthless daughter of a minister. There was no way she knew about the Crown Princess." Xie Feng said anxiously.
"You really don't know?" Ji Youran asked Xie Feng gloomily, staring at him.
Xie Feng suddenly became alert and argued even harder, "It's really impossible for her to know. She...even if she had supernatural powers, she wouldn't have known anything at that time."
Ji Youran's expression became better. She hummed softly, "I also know that she is lying to me, but..." She looked up into the air and felt a little flustered. Qu Moying's words really scared her. Could it be that Ji Hanyue was always there? Was she watching her secretly
"Mother... Mother, what are you looking at?" Xie Feng also sensed her panic, looked around and asked.
"Do you... feel it's eerie here?" Ji Youran gritted her teeth.
"Your servant... Your servant doesn't know what your Majesty means by saying this. This is the Eastern Palace, how could it be eerie? The Eastern Palace has His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who is protected by spirits. There can't... be any eerie spirits." Xie Feng obviously understood what Ji Youran said, and he stammered with his teeth chattering.
"With His Royal Highness the Crown Prince here, all evil will be invulnerable."
"What did you say to the Crown Princess?" Ji Youran's mind was much stronger than Xie Feng's, and she felt a little better at this time. She stared at Xie Feng's face with a gloomy look and continued to ask about the previous topic.
"I didn't say anything to the Crown Princess, but she asked me some questions about you, and I told her everything as you said. She was very satisfied and asked her maid to give me a generous reward." Xie Feng reached out and took out a purse from his arms and handed it over.
Ji Youran pinched it and took out a silver note. After looking at it, he shook it in the air and said, "This is a really generous reward. I actually gave you a hundred taels of silver note."
"This... so much?" Xie Feng hadn't expected Liu Jingyu to be so generous, and his eyes suddenly widened.
"It's true that she is the Crown Princess. It's better than following me.
"It's much better to be a concubine, Xiefeng, what do you think? Do you want to change your mind?" Ji Youran looked at Xiefeng with side eyes and smiled.
Xie Feng suddenly realized something and knelt down hastily: "Madam Concubine, don't you know what I am thinking? If it weren't for you this time, I wouldn't have come out of the mourning hall. Maybe I can be more useful to the Crown Princess at this time."
These words made Ji Youran's anger fade a little. He walked up to Xie Feng, stretched out his hand to pull Xie Feng up, and sighed, "You are from our Ling'an Marquis' Mansion. There are only a few people from the Marquis' Mansion left in the East Palace. Besides, I gave you to the Crown Prince. If you are favored, it will be like me being favored. How can I not trust you?"
Ji Youran was very satisfied with Xie Feng's loyalty this time.
Unlike the last time, this time she was at the end of her rope. Xie Feng's return at this time was a great help to her. It also allowed her to reuse Xie Feng and forgive his previous infidelity.
“My queen, before… I just blamed you for not trusting me. I didn’t really do anything against you.” Xie Feng cried as she spoke.
"Okay, stop crying. I will keep my promise to you. It was like this at the beginning, and it is still like this now." Ji Youran said, and then his face darkened. "It's just that I am at the most critical moment right now, and there can't be the slightest mistake. You have to think clearly. If you follow me, I will share everything with you in the future. If you betray me, you will just be buried with me in the end."
"A former servant of the deceased Crown Princess, and also a person of His Royal Highness, do you think the Crown Princess can tolerate him?"
"Your servant... Your servant wholeheartedly hopes for the best for Her Majesty the Concubine." Xie Feng defended herself once again.
Ji Youran nodded and passed the banknote in his hand to Xie Feng, "Since it is a reward from the Crown Princess, just accept it."
“But… but…” Xie Feng didn’t dare to answer.
"It's nothing to ask for... This is also a gift from me." Ji Youran raised the banknote in her hand, then slowly put it into Xie Feng's hand, letting her hold it with her fingertips.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xie Feng looked at her expression and found that she really wanted her to accept the silver note. He was immediately overjoyed and excited.
“You’re welcome. We’ll be sisters in private from now on. What’s mine, you’ll have to bear. I will never treat you unfairly.” Ji Youran stretched out her hand and pressed the sore on her face. “If there’s anything the Crown Princess wants to know from you in the future, you should ask me first and then tell her.”
"Yes, I understand." Xie Feng nodded repeatedly.
"It's best that you can understand. Now go find me some ointment so I can use it on my face." Ji Youran said.
"The Queen wants to use... the bottle that she asked for before?" Xie Feng had heard Ji Youran talk about it the day before yesterday, so he naturally knew which bottle she was talking about. "Does it really work? I heard it was passed down from our ancestors. It's been so long..."
“I have to try. How do I know if I don’t try? Now… I’m not pregnant. Even if something doesn’t go well, it doesn’t matter.” Ji Youran gritted her teeth, a trace of blood flashing in her eyes. Her face must be restored. She must make the prince pity her again. This idiotic look cannot last long.
Otherwise it would only annoy the prince.
"But... but it's been such a long time since I took this medicine... it's always better to give it a try. I got this medicine from the Princess of England. I think it's
The Princess of England is hostile to you, Your Majesty." Xie Feng reminded her.
Qu Moying has always been indifferent to Ji Youran, even when they first met and she was just an abandoned daughter of a minister.
Ji Youran's repeated attempts to get close to her were useless. This person never treated her as her cousin and always addressed her as Concubine Ji and Concubine Ji.
Afterwards, he didn't give Ji Youran any face when it came to Xie Feng's matter.
"I don't know what's wrong with her. She doesn't want to get close to me, but is she trying to get close to the Crown Princess?" Ji Youran sneered, feeling angry.
She asked herself why she had a bad attitude when she first met Qu Moying because she didn't know her. But after that, she was careful every time they met, hoping that this Fourth Miss Qu would like her.
Not only was everything he did not meet her eyes, but this person actually rose to the top overnight and became the Princess of England, becoming someone she had to look up to.
This disgusted her even more.
But just now she also learned from Qu Moying's words the reason why Qu Moying disliked her. Originally, Qu Moying had been suspecting whether she had harmed her cousin and whether she had attacked Ji Hanyue when Ji Hanyue was seriously injured.
It's really ridiculous.
This is the Eastern Palace. Without the Crown Prince's order, how could he dare to attack Ji Hanyue? Especially when there were rumors that she was seriously injured after blocking the Crown Prince's sword.
Extremely stupid.
They actually believed this rumor, it was nonsense. At that time, Ji Hanyue was already dead and even his body could not be found, so what else could they say
"The medicine is okay. It hasn't been opened yet. Even if Princess Ying wants to do something with it, she can't." Ji Youran said. When it was sent to her, she checked it specifically and found that it was unopened. She was relieved. At least Qu Moying had less chance to take action. It all depended on whether the medicine of the ancestor of the Zhou family was effective.
This time, she couldn't wait any longer. Although the prince was fine before, she still frowned every time she saw the wound.
If she wants to be favored and maintain her favor, this appearance is absolutely indispensable.
Liu Jingyu is also good-looking, but she was able to win the Crown Prince's blue eyes under Ji Hanyue's eyelids that day, so her beauty naturally caught the Crown Prince's eye.
How did she get in front of the prince? She can do it now, and she can even do better...
After Qu Moying followed Liu Jingyu back, he sat for a while and then stood up to say goodbye.
Liu Jingyu did not keep her for long and sent someone to lead her out. Unexpectedly, she met Pei Luoan who was coming from the opposite direction.
When the two met, Pei Luoan was stunned for a moment, and his eyes swept across Qu Moying's eyes. Those clear and gentle eyes always made him feel a strange sense of disharmony.
He didn't know if it was because these eyes were so outstanding or for some other reason, but he actually found a hint of heroism in them.
Pei Luoan thought thoughtfully, but when he looked more closely, there was a hint of charm in her elegance and refinement, which was stunningly beautiful.
Seeing Qu Moying coming over, he stopped and a gentle smile appeared on his face.
Qu Moying took two steps forward and bowed to Pei Luoan: "Greetings, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"Princess Ying, you are too polite. Princess Ying came to my East Palace... I wonder what you are doing here?" Pei Luoan asked with a smile.
