King Ling's Mansion, Falling Cloud Courtyard.
"Senior Servant Lin." Bai Yi gently laid down on the imperial concubine's chair, caressing her fingers as she called out to Lin mama, who was standing behind her, to attend to her.
"Your servant is here." Lin mama walked in front of Bai Yunting and bowed her head in response.
"Momo, since the Prince has asked you to serve me, what about you now … Is it the Prince's people or my people? " Bai Yu Ting asked casually.
"Reporting to Madam, the Prince has given this servant to Madam. This servant is Madame's person!" As soon as Lin mama heard Bai Yuting's words, she immediately kneeled down to show her loyalty.
Although he had just come to serve his wife, he was already convinced by her methods.
Although she was born in a brothel, she had the air of a lady. She was generous, had a good family, and was well versed in the heart of men. She never got jealous, and only thought for the prince.
"Then right now, this lady wants to do something. I believe that this lady will know what to do?" Bai Yuting stood up and walked towards a pot of autumn flowers in the room.
"This servant will definitely cooperate fully with Madam!" Lin mama kowtowed as she spoke.
"You get up first! "Come here." Bai Yixue said to Lin mama with a smile on his face.
Lin mama stood up and quickly walked over to Bai Yu Ting's side. He saw Yun Ting point at the pot of chrysanthemum and ask.
"Grandma, look at this flower, is it pretty?"
Before Lin mama could reply, she took a pair of scissors from the side and easily cut off the little autumn chrysanthemums that were blooming brilliantly in the basin. All that was left was the lowest autumn chrysanthemum.
"So, is this autumn chrysanthemum nice to look at now?" Bai Yuting turned her head to look at Lin mama with a strange smile.
When Lin mama saw this action, she knew what she was going to do. She said with alarm in her heart, "Madam, you're …"
"That's right, I just want to! Your highness clearly loves me! Why should she! "He's not as beautiful as me, nor is he as smart as me. Isn't he just born a little better than me?!" Bai Yu Ting hysterically shouted at the wet nurse. She was really unwilling!
The more she spoke, the more excited Bai Yuting became. She even grabbed onto Lin mama's shoulders and shook them vigorously.
"Madam …" "Madam …" Lin mama was thrown into disarray by the shaking, so all she could do was keep calling out to Bai Yi.
"Yes!" I am the Lady! Madame, do you know what it is? It's a concubine! Half a servant, not even half of her! In the future, my child will call her a mother! " Bai Yu Ting's eyes were wide open. Her normally fine and beautiful facial features were twisted together, making her look as though she was about to contort.
"Madam!" My lady! Wake up! " Lin mama shouted.
The agitated Yun Ting looked as if she was woken up by someone as she stood there stunned. After a long time, she closed her eyes, covering the unwillingness that filled them.
After a while, she opened her eyes.
"Momo, I was too excited."
"Madam, this servant is fine. Please be careful not to let others know." Lin mama worriedly advised.
"Momo, go get Greenbranch." Bai Yuting said fiercely.
"Yes, ma'am." Senior Servant Lin blessed herself and walked out.
Bai Yu Ting turned around and walked towards the dressing table. She gently opened the drawer and took out two pouches …

Xiao Qian quietly followed behind Eunuch Li. She neither asked nor looked around, looking straight ahead, neither humble nor haughty.
Eunuch Li secretly observed her while leading the way. If he saw that she was calm, he couldn't help but praise her in his heart.
This was her first time entering the Imperial Palace. The Imperial Palace was truly very large and beautiful, but to someone like her who had seen many more and better in the modern world, these things were nothing more than this.
"Let the wangfei rest here for a while, this servant will go report to the emperor." Eunuch Li brought Qian Qian to the side hall of the imperial study and turned to Qian Jin.
Not long after the shallow answer, the eunuchs' long and shrill voices came from the direction of the imperial edict.
"Your Highness Duke Ling is here to see you …"
"Princess, please."
"Yes."
"Chenqie pays her respects to Your Imperial Majesty." She gave a shallow curtsy to the emperor who sat before her desk. It was a good thing she'd learned these basic courtesies from Greenwood when she woke up.
The Emperor did not call his words shallow. Instead, he leaned back in the Dragon Throne, his forefinger and middle finger constantly tapping on the table. After a long time, the emperor asked,
"Xiao Shi, Jun Xiang just left this morning, and you've already sent Madam Wang and Madam Wen away?"
"Your majesty, chenqie didn't do that!" She firmly replied.
"The capital has been in an uproar since noon. You sure have a good method up your sleeves!" the Emperor said sarcastically.
"The crime you wish to add to is not a crime!" He spoke with a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing.
"..." The Emperor stared fixedly at Xiao Qian. Didn't they say she was arrogant and domineering, that she liked to use her power to suppress people, and that she had a big head but no brains? Sure enough, rumors were all lies!
"Rise. Someone, give me a seat."
The Emperor picked up the book that just came from Hundred Miles of Gyaca and said
"Jun Xiang has arrived at the siege city. He departed at five o'clock in the morning. It's rare to see him cross two cities in a short six hours."
When the Emperor saw that Asakusa was still sitting there, he said …
"I, with the strongest army in the capital, Han Lin, will naturally not be slow! However, just now, we received news from Baijia that the silver grains have been robbed. Jun Xiang, your whereabouts are unknown! "
After the Emperor finished speaking, he stared intently at Xiao Qian, hoping to find some trace of nervousness from her reaction towards Prince Ling. However, she just sat there like that, looking at everyone, as if she was reverently listening to the Emperor's lecture.
Actually, it was because the current information was shallow and lacking, and he was not like the Daoist Priest who could tell fate. Thus, he could only choose to stay still and silently wait for the Emperor to announce his goal.
"The Jiangnan water calamity was a national affair in the first place. As a member of the royal family, Jun Xiangyi had nothing to do with it. But now that Jun Xiang is missing, why is your wife not worried at all?" The emperor suddenly slapped the tabletop, loudly berating Asshole.
Xiao Qian hurriedly stood up and knelt on the ground.
[Previous Chapter] [Table of Contents] [Next Chapter] I don't have any feelings for him, so how can I worry about him?]
"No matter how much I believe and care, I can't help but worry!" The Emperor grunted in apparent disbelief.
"Your majesty, it's common knowledge that chenqie and prince don't have any feelings for each other." She just told the truth.
"How dare you!" The emperor was furious.
"We have already kept the matter of Jun Xiang's disappearance a secret, but Jiang Nan's disappearance must not be delayed!" Thus … "I have given you the title of minister. Tomorrow at noon, you will be disguised as one that brings calamity to Jiangnan!" The Emperor sighed, stood with his hands behind his back, and said,
"I will send you an imperial guard army, as you command! I hope that you can complete the mission soon! " The Emperor could not refuse.
"Your majesty, chenqie is only a young girl!" She said helplessly. Moreover, since the Emperor hadn't been able to get her to stand up, she could only kneel on the ground.
"Even if it's a woman, I still believe in you!" The Emperor turned around and walked in front of him, speaking with certainty.
"Your majesty, if chenqie has to go, then I have a condition!"
