Chapter 2956 The queen wanted to protect her, but was slapped in the face

"Um."

The old woman sitting in the courtyard is playing with a piece of porcelain. The blue and white porcelain exudes a soft luster under natural light, and the delicate embryo glaze shows that she is holding a rare and famous antique.

She is tall and thin, with a cold temperament, coupled with prominent bones and well-defined outlines, she was born with a special aura of nobility, and it is easy to give people a feeling of "unhuman".

Although she is getting older, it does not affect her outstanding temperament. The graceful demeanor in her gestures is different from that of ordinary people.

Shadow walked in front of her, hesitated to speak before he could speak.

Nie Qingru slightly raised her eyelids and waved at him: "Come on, come and take a look for me."

"Yes." Shadow approached obediently.

Nie Qingru held up the porcelain in his hand, and asked him with a smile on his face: "What do you think of this vase? Will Qixing like it?"

Shadow didn’t dare to take a closer look. He lowered his eyes after taking a quick look, and retreated respectfully: “Young Master Qi likes to collect antiques, so he should like the gift you chose for him.”

"Um."

Nie Qingru's eyes fell on the blue and white porcelain. The more he looked at it, the more satisfied he was. He slowly put the porcelain back on the table, and his eyes gradually returned to their usual sharpness.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Shadow secretly looked up and saw her wiping her fingertips, then immediately lowered her head: "It's about Leonard."

Nie Qingru paused as she wiped her hands, then squinted at the past: "Huh?"

Shadow didn't dare to turn around: "Ji Ziyin was taken away by Lei Ting! Her relatives found us and wanted us to help her."

"Huh!" Nie Qingru sneered indifferently: "I thought she was so clean that she was discovered so quickly?"

She cares a little bit more.

"How did the Leonard family find her?"

Shadow knew that she would be angry if she said it, but she had no choice but to mention that name: "It's... Qiao Nian."

Sure enough.

As soon as the shadow mentioned Qiao Nian's name.

Nie Qingru's sneer faded away, his eyes became cloudy, and the air around him became much colder: "It's her again."

"..." Shadow didn't dare to answer.

Nie Qingru didn't care to admire the precious blue and white porcelain antiques on the table, and threw the silk scarf for wiping hands on the table, with a cold face and cold eyes, said: "Go and test the tone of the Leonard family."

"...If people can be released, let them take care of them in my name, and save Ji Ziyin's life!"

Even though Shadow could not agree with her handling method, she knew why Nie Qingru did this: "Yes."

…

Half an hour later.

The shadow is back.

He walked up to Nie Qingru again this time, bowing his head: "Queen, the Leonard family said...this time involves their family's private affairs, I hope you don't interfere."

Nie Qingru was pruning flower branches leisurely at first, but when she heard that with the scissors in her hand, a peony flower in full bloom was cut up to her waist, and the flower fell to the ground, causing the petals to scatter.

When the shadow saw the flowers falling on the ground, he held his breath even more, maintained a humble standing posture, kept his waist bent, and lowered his head, not daring to look directly at Nie Qingru.

After a brief pause, Nie Qingru picked up the scissors again and trimmed the branches growing next to it, and said softly, "It's fine if they don't want to."

"It's just Ji Ziyin, and I don't need to plan for her."

"..."

Shadow didn't express anything, nor interrupted.

He actually understood why the Empress planned to get Ji Ziyin a hand, it was just because she was unhappy with Qiao Nian, so that the direct line of the Ji family would not be happy.
