It was just that when she fell down, it hurt a little. Baili Lianer used his hands to wipe her wounds, making it hurt even more.
In order to stop Baili Lianer, she asked her to call over a Female Doctor for her.
If it were not for Baili Lianer's few moves, even her blush would have disappeared by now on her arm.
The empress dowager had to help her up. How could this be?
Lin Xuecha could only obey.
She looked up, and the front of this seat just happened to be where Su Nanxing was sitting.
The man in front of her lightly pursed his lips. A pair of pitch-black, deep eyes stared at her as he rolled up his sleeves, revealing his snow-white arm.
Before the Female Doctor even arrived, a person had instead arrived first.
Everyone kneeled down and kowtowed once again.
Lin Xuecha saw the look in the depths of her eyes and retracted her gaze. She bent over and spoke along with the Minister.
"Greetings, Your Majesty. Long live the Emperor. Long live the Emperor. Long live the Emperor."
The old emperor's hair had turned white, and there were obvious wrinkles around the corners of his eyes.
However, he had an imposing manner between his brows, and his entire body had the disposition of someone that would always be at the top, someone who was humble to the point that no one dared look directly at him.
He waved his hand at the ministers and female staff members in the hall, "No need to stand on ceremony, all of you are free."
"Thank you, Emperor." Only then did everyone stand up.
The old Emperor walked towards the Empress Dowager.
His gaze wandered for a second on Lin Xuecha before he smiled at the empress dowager. "Imperial Mother, your son has come late."
The empress dowager was full of smiles as well. "The emperor has so many affairs to attend to every day. All he can do is give this one face. Quickly, sit down."
The old emperor nodded. "Thank you, Imperial Mother."
One had to say, the old emperor had done his job with the word 'filial piety' impeccably.
Her Majesty was a dozen years younger than he was, and not his birth mother, but she was as good to him as he was to her.
In fact, she managed half of the harem matters, which was quite good.
It was the empress dowager who clapped her hands together, saying that she didn't like this sort of thing, and thus handed the power of the harem over to the empress.
Lin Xuecha stood in front of the empress dowager.
Since the Empress Dowager didn't say anything, she could only stay still.
The empress remembered and said to the empress dowager, "Imperial Mother, that little girl, Snowy, is still injured. Why don't you let her sit on the side?"
The empress dowager's voice was cold. "Why sit down? Just give her a seat next to This Dowager."
The Queen bit her lip, looking troubled.
Those who were able to sit on the platform were all members of the Royal Clan, and they were all characters with seniors as well.
Even her favorite, Baili Lianer was still standing.
How could Lin Xuecha, a mere lowly princess, have the qualifications to sit?
Lin Xuecha bent his body down in fear, "Absolutely not, I thank Empress Dowager for her good intentions, but how can I sit beside you, so please don't laugh."
The empress dowager didn't reply.
She looked at the old Emperor. "Your Majesty, do you think that This Dowager is joking?"
The old emperor's eyebrows curved into a smile. "Today, I will listen to my mother."
He said to the steward and eunuch by his side, "Give the Princess Yuexi a seat."
This sentence was neither light nor heavy, and it struck the hearts of everyone present.
Immediately, the way the rest looked at Lin Xuecha slightly changed.
Or envy, or deep, or angry, or disdainful, or envious...
All sorts of things.
Lin Xuecha's eyes drooped, as though he didn't dare act rashly, and was pulled by the empress dowager to sit down.
The only people who could sit beside the empress dowager were the Grandma-empress, the emperor, and the empress.
She was a princess, so she sat by the empress dowager's side …
Majesty, what are you trying to do?
Pet her.
Could she say that this sudden act of love made people feel strange? It could even be said that it was a bit strange.
The atmosphere of the hall descended into silence.
It was only when the Female Doctor asked for an audience that the deadlock was broken.
The empress dowager's expression softened as the Female Doctor stepped forward to check on Lin Xuecha's injuries.
The old Emperor did not know what had happened, and asked Lin Xuecha: "What happened to the girl?"
Before Lin Xuecha could reply, Baili Lianer bit her lips and kneeled down, "It was all my fault. I accidentally poured the tea on top of the snow.
The empress consoled him, "When people make mistakes, I believe that mother and emperor won't make things difficult for you. Hurry and get up."
Baili Lianer's eyes turned red, she looked at Lin Xuecha, and then her gaze landed on Su Nanxing.
Anyone who saw that extremely wronged and petty look would have their heart soften.
From beginning to end, Su Nanxing's gaze had never once rested on her face.
Lin Xuecha was silent. At this moment, she had better not speak.
The crown prince warmly agreed, "Let's first let Female Doctor take a look at your injuries, I don't even need to blame myself."
Female Doctor scrunched his face, not daring to raise his head.
Lin Xuecha could even feel that her fingertips were trembling.
Her eyes flashed as she saw Female Doctor kneeling on the ground. "Reporting to the empress dowager, Your Majesty, Empress, your injuries aren't too severe. Just apply a little medicinal paste on them and you'll be fine."
"Then hurry and apply the medicine."
Her tone of voice was extremely urgent, as if what would happen to Lin Xuecha if he were to slow down.
Very strange.
The current Empress Dowager was just like Su Nanxing back then.
She clearly didn't know these two people, but why did they help her for no reason?
Su Nanxing still had a way of saying it.
After all, he and her father had been at the border together for many years. Perhaps it was her father who had once asked Su Nanxing to help her a lot …
However.
What about Her Majesty?
Why is the Empress Dowager?
These people were like a mystery. They would only roll deeper and deeper into the mystery. She would never have the day where she obtained the answer to the riddle.
Lin Xuecha pursed his lips.
Maybe it was because Female Doctor's hand was trembling, she accidentally threw the ointment in her hand down, and the bottle shattered.
The next moment, someone said, "Someone whose hands and feet are not nimble, why does This Dowager need you for? Someone, drag her out and beat the crap out of her."
Lin Xuecha's pupils contracted, her gaze immediately landing on the kind-looking empress dowager.
She was not a white lotus, and she had no love for the Virgin.
Available...
However, it was just a small bottle that was smashed apart. Was the punishment really that severe?
Female Doctor knelt on the ground in fear, his body trembling but he did not beg for mercy.
He had already seen too much, so he was numb to it. Or was it because he had only been punished twenty times, not losing his head?
No matter what, it was still wise to protect one's self. But at the same time, there had to be a way to persuade someone.
Lin Xuecha said. "Today is Empress Dowager's birthday celebration, if she sees something wrong with the blood, it won't be a bottle of medicine. Empress Dowager, why don't you let her go."
The empress dowager paused for a moment. "You're just like your mother. You're very soft-hearted, that's why your mother …" Forget it, this one will listen to you. "
Mother …
Lin Xuecha's heart jumped, his eyebrows knitted tightly.
The Queen's eyebrows twitched and she lowered her eyes slightly.
Female Doctor sobbed and kowtowed a few times, "Thank you, Empress Dowager, for your mercy. Thank you, Princess Yuexi."
She glanced at Lin Xuecha, then endured the fear in her heart as she applied an ointment on her. She bowed and took her leave.
Lin Xuecha put down his rolled up sleeves.
The old emperor's gaze swept a circle around the dukes.
However, he suddenly turned and looked at Lin Xuecha, and asked: "A few days ago, the girl went to Grand Guanyin Temple, what did you think?"
Lin Xuecha was about to get up and reply, but the old emperor stretched out his hand and pressed down on it, indicating that there was no need to be so courteous.
Lin Xuecha answered, "With Crown Prince, Your Highness and Elder Sister Lian taking care of me, I feel very good about Snow Tea."
The Crown Prince waved his fan, looking extremely charming and elegant, with a smile on his face, "Snowy, don't involve me in this.
The corner of Lin Xuecha's mouth twitched.
If Su Jin didn't spout nonsense, would disorder and cause death?!
She glanced at the Crown Prince Su Jin, and then looked in Su Nanxing's direction.
Su Nanxing sat in his original position as calmly as ever, and picked up a piece of cake in an extremely leisurely manner.
As the monarch said it would be.
The corners of the old emperor's eyes curled up in a faint stream of light. "Does this mean that the girl is my Lao Jiu?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the main hall fell silent once more.
The empress dowager gave Lin Xuecha a leisurely glance, but didn't say anything more.
The empress tapped the nail of her pinky and spoke with profound eyes. "Your majesty has made such a decision. Aren't you afraid that this girl, Xueju, will blush?"
Lin Xuecha hurriedly followed the Empress's words and said, "Your majesty has misunderstood, one day is the master, and the whole life is the master. Your majesty is the master of Snow Tea, if you don't understand the problem, Snow Tea should ask the question. If you do not have a good opinion about this, then Snow Tea will correct it more in the future."
However, the old emperor smiled and said, "This is nothing. Since you are so studious, when your father is back in the capital, you should go and stay at the Lao Jiu Palace.
If you have any questions, just ask. When your father comes back, you will become a talented girl, and this way, your father won't blame me for breaking your engagement. "
Stay?
Live in the Ninth Prince Palace?!
In the Audience Hall, the sound of someone taking in a breath of cold air sounded out once again.
What kind of woman has her own residence, and yet has to live in someone else's residence?
Lin Xuecha was not an orphan.
The old emperor letting her stay in the Ninth Prince Palace and even staying until her father returned to the capital, wasn't this disguised as telling the world that her relationship with Su Nanxing was ambiguous?!
His brain had become more pure, and maybe the only thing he could think of was that Lin Xuecha wanted to marry Su Nanxing and become his concubine.
Lin Xuecha naturally understood everyone's thoughts. She raised her eyes to look at Su Nanxing, pursed her lips, and tried to save the old emperor's words.
"Your Majesty, academic issues, your Highness and Snowy's daily communication is already enough, there's no need …" Moreover, if Snow Tea lives in the Ninth Prince Palace, Her Highness will definitely have many inconvenient places to do so, so, I hope that Your Majesty can take back your orders. "
The old emperor raised his eyes.
He looked at Lin Xuecha who had his head lowered. His gaze shifted towards the man who was sitting still.
"Lao Jiu, what do you think?"
