Looking at the direction the State Advisor left in, Meng Ze Chen held his forehead and sighed. He didn't know what to say. What if the baneful star was just a child? Did he have to kill the child?
When State Advisor arrived at the empress's chambers, the empress was talking to her child. Although the empress's child had not been made a crown prince, because of his decisiveness, he had never made any mistakes. Furthermore, his appearance was very similar to the current emperor, so many people already treated him as a crown prince.
Of course, these kinds of words could only be said in the heart. They couldn't be said at all. This was the crime of treason.
Seeing that the State Advisor had come over, the empress asked her own son to go out and play, and also dismissed all the palace maids and eunuchs by her side.
When the two of them were alone in the room, the empress sneered. "You've been acting like this for so many years, can't you relax a little?"
"Isn't the empress the same?" The State Advisor replied coldly, but looking at the two, it seemed as if they were very familiar with each other. It was just that for some reason, the air seemed to be filled with a tense tension.
"I have been in charge of the Eastern Palace for so many years, what can I do? To be able to make these people feel grateful, it is truly an unbearable suffering. " With that, the Queen picked up a cup of tea and blew lightly on it, "What about State Advisor? Why did he have to put on such a cold front? Where's that youth from ten years ago? How come I don't see any more contact between you two? "
The State Advisor also picked a place to sit down himself. However, after the State Advisor sat down, he stood up straight like her, looking extremely awkward as he said, "This kind of thing isn't something you need to handle, esteemed empress. However, I have some news that I'm not sure if you're willing to listen to?"
The Queen did not speak either, looking at State Advisor without blinking.
State Advisor who had known the empress for so many years naturally knew what she meant. She chuckled lightly and said, "That child is not the emperor's flesh and blood."
"It isn't?" The love story between Meng Ze Chen and that woman was already known to everyone. In fact, in the past, she almost became an empress. If it wasn't for her family's influence, she might not have been able to become the most noble woman in the world.
It's just that after so many years, his family has almost been completely wiped out by Meng Ze Chen, and now he's saying that the child isn't the emperor's? Who was he lying to?
"After you were made a queen, that woman never saw the emperor again. Do you understand?" State Advisor looked at the empress's furious face and sneered twice. He didn't feel like there was anything wrong with it at all, but he couldn't calm the empress down by saying those words.
The originally noble woman now looked like a lunatic as she pointed at State Advisor and said, "I don't believe it, this is impossible. How could that child not be Meng Ze Chen's? If it wasn't Meng Ze Chen's, then who was it? Who else can that woman have children with? "
State Advisor also frowned. She had always been confused by this matter, who exactly was that child's father? Back then, she had heard about the story of the child's mother and the emperor. It was just that her choice back then had nothing to do with her, so she stayed aloof. But now, it seemed like … It was as if the woman from that year had become the empress's knot in her heart. No, that was not good.
Lin Xiaorong had already been brought to Madame Luo's room. This time, Luo Shaoyang was not anxious to meet this person who would make him eat his meal, it was mainly because their last meeting had been too failure, so Luo Shaoyang did not intend to do anything about it.
Looking at Lin Xiaorong in front of him, the Madame Luo asked in a noble and cool manner: "What's your name?"
Although he did not feel that the Madame Luo really had the qualifications to be arrogant, thinking about how in this era, status and position represented everything, Lin Xiaorong did not try to trick them, and honestly replied: "My name is Lin Xiaorong." The aura he exuded looked like he was unmatched in his generation.
The Madame Luo did not expect that Lin Xiaorong would actually give him such a pleasant surprise. Originally, he had thought about what he should do if he was still like the face of Madam Lin Cao and her daughter from before, but now that he thought about it, he truly was overthinking.
Come to think of it, although this Madame Luo had been cold and heartless to Madam Lin Cao the last time, he was still just a woman. A woman who was raised since childhood, to ordinary people, although she had the air of a superior being, towards a little girl like Madam Lin Cao, Madame Luo couldn't be tough at all if she wanted to. It was rather pitiful.
Looking at Lin Xiaorong's neither humble nor haughty expression, the Madame Luo smiled with praise, and even said softly: "I have already heard about your experiences from my husband. I heard that you didn't want to move into the County Leader’s Office because of your brothers?"
Shaking his head, Lin Xiaorong laughed, as if he had not thought about it too much, and said: "No, Madame Luo, I just feel that we are purely in a business relationship, with no business transactions that require us to stay in the buyer's house, right? Besides, I've been making this jam every day, so it shouldn't be a problem. "
It has to be said that Lin Xiaorong's words caused the Madame Luo to be stunned. Then, as if he hadn't thought of it, he let out a cry, as if he had just awoken from a dream. "So it's like that. However, our family only has one child, Shaoyang, so it's not strange for you to be nervous. You should also pay more attention when eating food."
After saying that, Madame Luo became slightly apprehensive. Although she wasn't really a very fierce person, nor did she have a strong temper, but at least she was already a child's mother. Today, she was actually suppressed by the aura of a twelve year old little girl.
Thinking about the feeling just now, Madame Luo felt that the situation was much more serious than he had imagined. This little girl didn't look like someone easy to deal with, but after thinking about Lin Xiaorong's background, Madame Luo felt that it was rare for a little girl like her to be able to maintain her current personality even after experiencing such an event.
The reason why he was so overbearing and arrogant should be because he had been bullied frequently since he was young, right? Only in this way would he not be bullied too badly?
Of course, Lin Xiaorong was not thinking the way Madame Luo had imagined it. Lin Xiaorong also felt that his heart was thumping loudly in his chest, this was a gamble, with her reading so many novels, receiving so many different kinds of patients, Lin Xiaorong had deduced the personality of this Madame Luo, and even suggested a few different ways to deal with this kind of personality, which was the best plan that Lin Xiaorong could think of.
It was just that he did not know if his analysis of Madame Luo's personality was right or wrong.
But now, he did not have to worry about any of this anymore. These things were no longer important, Madame Luo's personality was basically the same as what he had analyzed. Madame Luo would definitely think better of him because of what he had said.
The corner of Lin Xiaorong's mouth curved, revealing a somewhat difficult expression: "Madame Luo, you should also know that county leader Luo has been very concerned about the governance of the county for the past few years. In all these years, very few people have ever said anything bad about Lord county leader, but if just because of this one matter, Sir county leader's hard work for so many years is not really worth it?"
After he finished speaking, he shook his head with a chuckle. "I still hope that Madame Luo can think over this matter properly.
At first, Madame Luo felt that these words were not very accurate, but after thinking carefully, he felt that there was something very difficult to say.
Pausing for a moment, Madame Luo asked, "Xiao Rong, does this mean that you have experienced something, or are you unhappy about something?"
After hearing Madame Luo's words, Lin Xiaorong was obviously stunned, but she quickly shook her head and did not say anything. Anyone with a discerning eye would be able to tell that Lin Xiaorong did not seem very happy, and could even be considered nervous. Lin Xiaorong tightly gripped the corner of her clothes, and a few wrinkles appeared on the already tattered fabric.
When Lin Hao, who had been standing beside Lin Xiaorong as the background wall, saw his sister like this, he tightly held Lin Xiaorong's hand. It looked like he was comforting Lin Xiaorong.
Of course, Lin Hao was also very clear, clear as well. He was very clear about exactly what Lin Xiaorong had experienced before, and he also knew how his sister had been treated in the past.
Seeing the interaction between the brother and sister, Madame Luo looked at them in surprise. He seemed to be a little casual after, but also seemed to not care about anything as he said, "Since Xiao Rong, you're already saying that, then I seem to be a little unreasonable. However, Xiao Rong, look at how your parents are no longer here, there isn't even a single person in the family, so it's not going to be okay. Why don't you acknowledge me as your godmother and county leader as your godfather?"
Although Lin Xiaorong had calculated before what kind of benefits he would get, he could not imagine that he would get such an end.
Why would the Madame Luo suddenly say that he wanted to take her as his goddaughter?
Lin Xiaorong felt that if he were to use an expression to represent his current emotions, then she would probably choose to use the expression "ten thousand faces turning blank" as a more appropriate expression.
Looking at Lin Xiaorong's blank look, Madame Luo chuckled twice. It could be seen that Madame Luo was in a very good mood right now, as if some difficult problem that had not been solved for a long time had been solved.
When the Madame Luo said he wanted to take her in as his goddaughter, she wasn't lying. In fact, Lin Xiaorong didn't think that the Madame Luo would joke around with her.
