Chapter 136 - Deliberate Difficulties

The empress dowager allowed Wei Qing to eat lunch in the palace, and Wei Qing even massaged the empress dowager before leaving the Tzu Ning Palace.

Just as he was about to reach the entrance of the palace, he suddenly smelled the fragrance of bamboo leaves.

She slightly frowned, and turned around. Sure enough, she saw Xiao Qingqian calmly walking towards her.

There were no expression on Xiao Qingqian's face, making it impossible for Wei Qing to guess what he was thinking.

"The wangfei stayed in the Tzu Ning Palace for so long, what did she say to the Royal Grandmother?"

Wei Qing raised her eyebrows and tail, and laughed mockingly, "Could it be that Your Highness is afraid of me taking the opportunity to speak nonsense?"

Xiao Qingqian's face darkened.

Royal Grandmother summoned Wei Qing to the palace today, and even allowed her to stay for lunch. This showed that Royal Grandmother was very satisfied with Wei Qing.

"This king doesn't even dare to make an imperial concubine!"

"Yes." Wei Qing smiled even wider, "I would not dare."

However, she did mention it!

Xiao Qingqian looked at the way she acted, and his gaze darkened, "Since we've bumped into each other, then let's do it together!"

Wei Qing didn't want to get into trouble, although she didn't like being too close to him, she still silently followed him into the carriage.

When the carriage left the palace gates, someone quickly returned to the Tzu Ning Palace to inform them.

When the empress dowager heard that the two of them got along, Xiao Qingqian did not protect Tian Sisi too much and nodded in satisfaction.

Hearing that the empress dowager had sent someone, Xiao Qingqian was alarmed.

"Nanny Qiu, I wonder why Royal Grandmother sent you here?"

The Nanny Qiu smiled and said, "The empress dowager heard that Concubine Tian is proficient in calligraphy and calligraphy, and coincidentally would be praying for the coming month, so she asked this old servant to come over."

Xiao Qingqian's eyebrows were twisted into a knot, and he quickly guessed the Empress Dowager's intentions.

Although he felt that asking Tian Sisi to copy such a thick scripture was making things difficult for Tian Sisi, but when he thought about how Tian Sisi was having an affair with that playboy, the anger in his heart surged.

After thinking about it, he sent someone to call Tian Sisi to the hall.

After the birthday banquet, although Tian Sisi wanted to give a proper explanation to Xiao Qingqian, she could do nothing about it. Xiao Qingqian simply did not give her a chance to explain.

She knew that all of this was definitely related to Wei Qing, but she had no proof.

Hearing that Xiao Qingqian told her to go to the front hall, a hint of happiness immediately surfaced on her face.

After quickly dressing up, he hurriedly came to the front hall.

Who was this person?

He walked into the lobby without any change in expression and knelt down respectfully. Indeed, he was an eye-catching person.

Nanny Qiu looked at her and bowed as well. He went straight to the point and said what the empress dowager wanted.

Tian Sisi's gaze fell upon the thick book in her hands and opened her mouth wide.

"Si'er, this is Royal Grandmother's intentions, which also means that Royal Grandmother values you, don't disappoint Royal Grandmother!" Xiao Qingqian said indifferently after meeting Tian Sisi's pleading eyes.

Boom — —

It was as if thunder exploded in Tian Sisi's brain, and the mist in her eyes and the resentment in her eyes grew stronger and stronger.

Nanny Qiu frowned, "Is it because I am unwilling?"

These words were extremely cold and full of meaning.

No matter how unwilling Tian Sisi was, she couldn't offend the empress dowager. She quickly withdrew the mist in her eyes and spoke with a sorrowful voice: "This humble one doesn't dare! It's an honor! "

Hearing her unwilling words, Nanny Qiu snorted in his heart. How could she compare to Princess Chu in that aspect?

He swept his eyes across Xiao Qingqian, and felt even more indignant for him!

Nanny Qiu said: "Since Concubine Tian has said so, we will do our best, I will return to the palace to report!"

Xiao Qingqian nodded, and indicated the butler to send him to Nanny Qiu.

"My prince!"

"Si'er, Royal Grandmother has been paying close attention to Buddhist scriptures and buddhist arts all year round, don't you dare drip an ink stain on it!" Xiao Qingqian's voice was not warm at all. After reminding his, he stood up and prepared to leave.

Tian Sisi's heart skipped a beat and quickly reached out to grab his arm.

This was her last chance, and she definitely could not afford to miss it!

She looked at him with misty eyes. "My lord, do you really need me to dig out my heart so that you can believe that I can wholeheartedly and wholeheartedly treat you?"

Xiao Qingqian's chest tightened.

"Your highness, I don't even recognize that actor!" Tian Sisi hurriedly added.

Xiao Qingqian focused on her, and slowly struggled free from her hands, "Little girl, time is of the essence, you should quickly go copy the Buddhist scriptures!"

Tian Sisi only felt her vision go black, and the sky spun and the earth spun. When she came back to her senses, Xiao Qingqian had already left the hall.

As if he had all her strength sucked out, Tian Sisi stood stiffly in the hall, the servant girls all looked at her strangely.

Her mind was in a mess, buzzing like a bomber's.

Wei Qing, I will definitely settle this debt with you!

Feeling the anger and sorrow in her heart, Hong Xiao advised her a few words, telling her to not take the initiative these days, and to first copy the Buddhist scriptures properly before turning the situation around.

Tian Sisi forced herself to calm down and after thinking about it again and again, she felt that the current Buddhist Scriptures were the most important thing.

Returning back to her own hall with Hong Xiao, Hong Xiao studied the ink, and she began to write.

Not only was this Buddhist scripture thick, its characters were also small. If he did not copy it all night long, it would be impossible for him to complete it before next month's sacrifice.

Tian Sisi grumpily threw the brush on the table, "The empress dowager is really sincere in making things difficult for us!"

"concubine, even if you do know, you must copy it!" Hong Xiao felt her heart ache when she saw her like this.

Tian Sisi heaved a heavy sigh, and picked up the brush once again.

Prime Minister's Estate.

Wei Qing was playing chess with Prime Minister Wei. She hated playing chess the most in the past, but she never thought that it would actually be played so well!

The Prime Minister Wei pinched her nose, "Qing'er, don't tell me that you have received guidance from an expert for this move of yours?"

Wei Qing thought of Chu Yin again, and the light in his eyes dimmed a little, "Mmm, there is an expert's suggestion."

Prime Minister Wei knew that her thoughts were heavy, and if she didn't want to say anything, there was definitely a reason why she didn't want to say it, so she didn't continue to pursue the matter. The father and daughter duo set another two tables, and Prime Minister Wei's face showed signs of fatigue.

On the way out, she called out, "Painted."

"Esteemed wangfei, your servant just heard that …"

Wei Qing's eyes lit up. The empress dowager had truly done enough damage, to actually ask Tian Sisi to copy Buddhist scriptures.

She frowned and pondered for a moment. Then, she snapped her fingers, indicating that it was as if a painting had been drawn closer and whispered a few words.
