"Is the princess better?"
After so many days, Shen Qingwan put down the brocade handkerchief in her hands, her eyes filled with worry.
"To reply the Empress, the princess' body is fine." Lian Yun laughed, her mother had always been a kind person. When she lowered her head, she suddenly saw the handkerchief on the table that had not been finished embroidering. She blinked in surprise. "The Empress's daughter's red is getting better and better!"
Previously, she remembered that the flowers the Empress had embroidered were still crooked, but now she had reached a small conclusion.
However, it was no wonder that she had taken the time to embroider flowers every day for the past few days.
"Are you making fun of me again?" Shen Qingwan glared at her coquettishly. Ever since she had embroidered the embroidery for the emperor, she had been getting more and more attentive.
In the past, he could practice his martial arts at home, but in the palace, it was somewhat inappropriate.
"Go take a look at the princess. My kitchen should still be cooking congee for the princess." Upon finishing his words, he suddenly recalled that it was due to the porridge that he was implicated in it. With a bitter smile, he hesitated.
"Sigh …" Originally, he wanted to tell Lian Yun to forget about it, but when he raised his head, he discovered that the person in front of him had already left.
Forget it, let's just consider it as the last time. It was unknown whether it was because he had married someone or not, but he felt that his personality had become more and more nosy recently.
He removed the distracting thoughts from his heart and focused on embroidering.
"I'll have to trouble you to tell everyone that Concubine Xian sent me here."
Lian Yun saw that the servant who was guarding the door was a little unfamiliar, he had some doubts in his heart, but the princess had met with mishap not too long ago, so he guessed that the servant must have changed.
"Come in!" After a long time, the voice of the princess finally sounded from behind the door. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she still felt that the princess's voice contained scruples.
After all, he wasn't their master, so he didn't care too much about it. He just tossed it to the back of his mind.
"Greetings to the princess." Lian Yun saluted, and a smile flashed in her eyes, "Has the princess recovered in the past few days? My mistress is very concerned, so she specially sent me to take a look. "
A hint of surprise flashed across Fu Xinyan's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by fear, "Concubine Xian?" With both hands tightly holding onto the blanket, he occasionally glanced at the bowl in Lian Yun's hands.
Lian Yun nodded and replied, "Yes, the Empress even asked me to bring over the princess' favorite drink of lotus seed congee." Lian Yun's face showed some complacency, she was extremely proud of her esteemed mother's cooking, this porridge was personally made by her, if nothing else, the taste of the porridge was definitely something that others would not forget.
"This porridge …" Fu Xinyan subconsciously wanted to reach out to take it, but at this moment, she heard the servant girl beside her cough, "Ahem …"
The two of them looked at her, and the maid did not hide anything, he only bowed and said, "My apologies, Your Highness. It must have been the wind outside that made my throat feel uncomfortable."
The servant's words did not make Lian Yun feel that there was anything wrong with it. After all, she and Shen Qingwan did not hide anything and only felt that the relationship between the two of them was very good.
"Put the porridge there first." Fu Xinyan smiled awkwardly, and the muscles on her face stiffened, "Go back and tell Concubine Xian that there's no need to worry."
Lian Yun was stunned for a bit, as she was unable to understand the princess' words. In her eyes, there was obvious desire, but she still refused him. Ye Zichen pursed her lips and left.
But just as he walked a few steps, he heard a pa sound behind him. Lian Yun was startled and turned around, only to see that the bowl of porridge had been thrown out and smashed onto the ground.
"My princess said to go back and tell your mistress that there's no need for her to fake her kindness in the future!" The maidservant held the door with both hands, a provocative smile on his face.
"You!" Lian Yun was a little angry. His family's mistress had good intentions for her to send him porridge, how could they do that?
Suddenly, a feeling of grievance rushed over. She was acting on behalf of her mistress to not be worthy. Gritting his teeth, he turned around and ran back. His eyes were slightly red.
Seeing Lian Yun returning back to Shen Qingwan, she was shocked and asked, "What's wrong? But the princess is making things difficult for you? " She frowned, comforted herself, and asked about what had happened.
Lian Yun was so angry that she immediately knelt down, "Empress, I beg you, please do not bother with that whatever princess anymore!"
"Get up and talk." Seeing her in such a state, she knew that she must have been wronged. She was worried and doubtful as to what had happened.
"You were kind enough to give her the congee, yet she didn't thank you for not saying anything and even had her servant throw it out!" Thinking of this, she felt extremely wronged.
On the other hand, Shen Qingwan did not care too much about it, but at the same time she was disappointed and a little skeptical.
It was unknown if she misunderstood that she had truly harmed her, or if she was still unsettled. No matter what, she was still just a nine-year-old child.
"Forget it, Lian Yun. Princess is probably not in a good mood, so don't mind her too much." She tried to comfort her, but the worry only got worse.
Fu Xinyan stared blankly at the door. That bowl of congee was her favorite lotus seed congee. Tears immediately flowed down her cheeks.
"Princess, did you forget what the empress said?" After the servant girl closed the door, she no longer had the appearance of a servant girl. He took his time and looked at Fu Xinyan, who was crying on the bed.
"I …" Xiao Chen raised his head as he sobbed and looked at the servant girl with grievance. Since young, she had always been the only one that bullied others. However, now …
"Princess should hurry and pack up. The empress told you to go there and find her later." Seeing that she had almost stopped crying, the servant girl reminded her.
Fu Xinyan was stunned. She was about to refuse, but then she seemed to remember something and nodded like a puppet.
After the servant girl helped her change her clothes, she smiled in a comforting manner, "Princess, you don't have to worry. As long as you behave, I will return that item to you."
"Alright, I understand." She lowered her head and replied in a slightly hoarse voice, as if she had matured in an instant. However, the fear in her eyes could not be concealed no matter how hard she tried.
"Let's go. It's getting dark if we don't go now." Seeing that she was still frozen on the spot, the servant girl impatiently urged him. She stretched out her hand to tug on her sleeve, but Fu Xinyan subconsciously shook her sleeve, causing her to stumble.
"You …" The servant girl steadied herself, but when she looked into his calm eyes, she did not know what to say.
"Didn't you say you were leaving?" Fu Xinyan smiled. Her facial expression made people feel cold. "Let's go." With that, he walked out of the room, not caring about the maidservants behind him.
