I know what I did wrong, but you can't blame me

When he was forcefully dragged onto the master's seat by Chen Jinyan, and received the Imperial Consort Yi's worship, he did not even know what he was doing. It was only when the husband by his side silently pinched his own arm, as if he had suddenly come to a realization that he was the mother of a nation, and spoke in a perfunctory manner amidst the majesty: "You and I are sisters of the palace, so we should be of the same heart and soul, and serve the emperor together."

These words were taught to her by Chen Jinyan a while ago, he did not know if her back was right or not.

He leaned slightly, and the sunlight shone through one of his shoulders. It was as if his entire body was enveloped in a layer of warm light.

It was rare for Luo Yi to not be captivated by a beauty. A plan quickly flashed through her mind, and she quietly received the order.

However, as long as he was in the palace, the danger would increase. Therefore, as Luo Yi had entered the palace this time, besides taking the opportunity to understand the meaning of the "secret palace passage" that Chen Long An had told her in the Northern Tribes Prison, his most important goal was to protect the crown prince.

She thought that it would be a difficult process, and that it would not be easy to get along with the crown prince properly, but Chen Jinyan had taken the initiative to give her this chance, as if he had already known what she was going to do, and had prepared her a path ahead of time.

Luo Yi frowned, while suspecting the intentions behind Chen Jinyan's actions, she thought hard about it, and decided to give him a chance, not wanting it anymore.

Thus, just as he returned to his own Hall of Announcements, a palace maid came to report that according to the Emperor's royal decree, someone had already gone to the Eastern Palace to pick up the Crown Prince. In about fifteen minutes, the Crown Prince would arrive.

"Yes." Luo Yi nodded her head to indicate that she understood. Thinking that it was not worth it for him to rush over, she decided to send someone to serve some food, and take a nap in the main hall while the Crown Prince took his leave.

Chen Liyi was used to being domineering in the palace, so he scolded loudly from afar with his young and tender voice, "What the hell is the Imperial Consort Yi? I don't want to live with her... You dog slave! "Hurry and let go of me!"

The eunuch who was supporting him walked forward with a straight face, "Crown Prince, you should save some energy." "The Emperor said that if the crown prince isn't willing to let the servants carry you through, I would be forced to …"

"You dog slave!" Chen Liyi could not even hear a single word, he sprawled on the man's shoulder and used all his strength to say: "When I come down, I will chop your head off first!"

"Is that so?" Luo Yi pushed away the seed in her hand and walked out of the door, her eyes lazily sweeping over the eunuch. She then put the man on her shoulder down, and at the same time, pulled her right leg back, kneeling on the ground and saluting Luo Yi: "The crown prince has arrived, your servant will take his leave."

Luo Yi nodded, then walked in front of Chen Liyi, who was still in a daze. He bent his knees and half-squatted on the ground, "Do you want to chop off my head as well?"

"You are the Imperial Consort Yi?" Chen Liyi still couldn't understand what was happening before him, and when he spoke, his eyes became even more round.

"It's me." Luo Yi nodded in agreement.

It was originally not a big deal, but Chen Liyi suddenly exploded like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, staring straight at Luo Yi, as though he was about to curse, but just as he was about to open his mouth, Luo Yi quickly stuffed a handful of melon seeds into it.

Chen Liyi was startled, before he could regain his senses, the Imperial Consort Yi in front of him had already grabbed onto one of his hands, placed it in front of his eyes and sized it up: "Wu, looks much better than yesterday, should I blow more now?"

Without waiting for a response, she moved her mouth closer to his.

Chen Liyi's mouth twitched, but he did not say anything as he wanted to curse.

Luo Yi then patted his head again, and laughed while praising him: "Good girl."

A child! Luo Yi was a little proud. She would be extremely obedient if she coaxed her into giving him more snacks.

Had she not been spoiled like this by Lin Ting when she was young?

Luo Yi, who felt that she was very experienced, lightly pinched Chen Liyi's face. Seeing that although this child's face was still filled with unhappiness, he did not say anything unpleasant and tilted his head to avoid her actions, and couldn't help but smile, then stood up and held his hand as they walked indoors.

Chen Liyi's hostility towards Chen Jinyan was extremely great. Luo Yi could understand this point, but she was really unable to understand his actions and actions — It could be said that his hostility towards Chen Jinyan was not hidden at all. Fortunately Chen Jinyan did not take it to heart, otherwise, this child's life was probably not even enough for him to accomplish.

Luo Yi almost unconsciously frowned.

Luo Yi poured a cup of tea for Chen Liyi, in case he was thirsty from eating the melon seeds. "I heard that you were looking for me a few days ago?"

She was lucky that she did not mention anything, but immediately felt wronged when she did not even mention tea. She slammed the teacup onto the table heavily and said, "I had to flip through the entire courtyard of all the beautiful girls before I found you. In the end, before I could even say a word, you were taken away!"

When he said that, his expression was as though he had lost a precious toy. Luo Yi did not care about this small detail and immediately asked: "How did your hand get injured?"

When she was with Tang Yuan, she had also seen someone else's injured hand. The injuries from his quick movements were light, and in less than a day, the cyan and red color on the back of his hand had faded.

However, injuries like Chen Liyi's that were just right were rarely seen.

It wasn't so heavy that he needed to apply medicine, nor was it light enough that the redness would fade. It was more like someone had deliberately controlled his strength to leave such a wound on his hand.

Sure enough, Chen Liyi followed her words and glanced at the back of his hand, then said: "I wasn't paying attention when the servant closed the door, and accidentally picked it up."

He pointed at the door and repeated the same scene to Luo Yi: "When I was about to leave, she closed the door outside. She didn't see me, so when I panicked, I used my hand to block it."

"Oh." Luo Yi nodded, and before she spoke, he brought the teacup next to Chen Liyi's mouth: "It was also her who told you to come find me, right?"

She guided slowly, and as expected, Chen Liyi took the bait, and obediently nodded his head.

That is to say, she was the same person as the palace maid he had seen that day.

Luo Yi raised her eyebrows, and before she could put the corner of her mouth down, the woman who had appeared in her mind a second ago appeared outside the door.

A group of palace maids and eunuchs followed behind her. When they saw her, they first greeted Chen Liyi with a bow, then turned to face Luo Yi: "This servant greets Esteemed Empress Yi."

Her brows and eyes drooped, as if the hatred that Luo Yi had seen that day was just an illusion.

What she did was kneel.

Luo Yi turned around and fed Chen Liyi another two pieces of snacks: "Does the crown prince like this?"

"..." "I don't like it." Chen Liyi carefully tried it and commented as his eyebrows knitted together.

"Qing Luo," Luo Yi called out upon hearing this, "Tell them that the crown prince does not like this kind of snack, so there's no need to cook it in the future."

"Yes." Qing Luo bowed and retreated, but the person who was still kneeling on the ground did not even glance at her for a second.

He had to find out which palace Qing Luo used to work in before when he found the time.

It was only then that Luo Yi remembered that there was another person kneeling on the ground. Her gaze stopped at her as she played with her fingers and asked as if nothing had happened, "I heard from the crown prince that you were his personal palace maid who was in charge of his daily life in the past? What's her name? "

"Wen Yan."

"Oh …" Luo Yi replied, but before she could even speak, her tone changed again as she asked in an extremely shocked tone, "What are you kneeling for? "Get up."

"Thank you, esteemed Empress."

Luo Yi laughed, and when she spoke, her gaze was always on her, "The crown prince has just arrived, so I'm not too sure what taste you have. You are his personal servant, so I believe you are very familiar with all of this."

She suggested with a smile, "Why don't you go to the kitchen and take care of it first, so that the food cooked by the servants won't be suitable for the crown prince's appetite."

The moment his voice fell, Luo Yi clearly saw the face of the person in front of him change, he opened his mouth as though he wanted to say something, but unfortunately, Luo Yi snatched it away before he could say anything: "As for the crown prince's side …"

She casually pointed at a palace maid who looked very sincere. Hearing Qing Luo's words, it seemed like she was called Hong Xiang: "From now on, you'll take care of it."

Although Hong Xiang looked honest, he still looked smart. After being called, he was stunned for a second, then quickly reacted, quickly kneeling on the ground and kowtowing: "This servant obeys."

Wen Yan still had something she wanted to say, but Luo Yi didn't give her the chance to speak. She waved her hand to indicate to Hong Xiang that she should dispense with the formalities and continued with the work of feeding the snacks that she had specially sent out to Chen Liyi one by one, preventing him from speaking any further.

"Do you like this?" What about this? Hong Xiang... "

She called him over to her side, and intentionally or unintentionally separated Wen Yan from Chen Liyi: "You better remember the Crown Prince's taste well, if you're half wrong, I'll ask for your sake."

Her intention was not hidden, so Wen Yan naturally saw through it, and immediately did not struggle for nothing, and stood in place silently for two seconds, before taking the initiative to retreat.

"You don't like Wen Yan?"

Luo Yi was initially wholeheartedly coaxing Chen Liyi to eat dim sum, but when she heard this, he was shocked, and the hand that was pushed towards Chen Liyi's mouth involuntarily trembled.

Chen Liyi blinked his eyes. Seeing that Luo Yi's hands were trembling, he even took the initiative to move his mouth closer to her and took the piece of dessert from her fingertip. After that, he nodded and said, "This is delicious."

His expression didn't change much, as if what he had just said didn't come from his mouth, but after giving her an evaluation, he didn't shift his gaze and just waited eagerly for her reply.

Luo Yi thought for a while, then nodded and said "Yes".

Wen Yan was his personal palace maid and from the looks of their last meeting, they had probably held quite a high position in his heart. Thus, when Luo Yi nodded, he had already made preparations for Chen Liyi to plead on her behalf. Who would have thought that the other party was only carefully sizing up her expression, as if determining that she was serious about his words.

Luo Yi suddenly became interested, and at the same time that she was feeding him a snack, she could not help but ask: "You don't want her to stay? Did she take care of you for that long? "

"It's not bad …" Chen Liyi's mouth was stuffed full, the words were not very clear, thus when he forcefully swallowed the dim sum in his mouth, his face revealed a rare naivety that matched his age: "It's just a servant, if you don't like another then it's fine."

Luo Yi couldn't find anything wrong with his words even though he spoke so casually. After being silent for a while, she could only look at all the pastries in front of her that had already been tried once and ask him if he was hungry.

Chen Liyi shook his head, and Luo Yi sent someone to send him to the house to rest.

He was overly obedient and didn't say much when he was led away. He only quietly asked, "Then why don't you like her?" the moment he got off the chair.

Why? Luo Yi recalled the scene where Chen Liyi came to find him, and the Qi around her body immediately turned cold.

Everyone knew how the title of emperor came about, but they could guess why Chen Jinyan was left behind after sending off everyone who was related to the previous dynasty. Under such circumstances, the crown prince, who acted on impulse, came to the palace looking for a woman who was about to be officially conferred the title, but if Chen Jinyan thought too much about it, she would not be standing here alive today.

Luo Yi pinched the center of her brows, confirming that she had never seen this Wen Yan before. Then why would she want to kill him?

Chen Liyi still raised his head and waited for her reply. Luo Yi also squatted down, just like when she was young, he rubbed her face carefully. "Because she looks like the person who bullied me when I was young."

"But …" Chen Liyi knitted his eyebrows together with youth and maturity.

"I know that that person is not her, so my action is to vent my anger. However, tempering my anger is not right, so you should not learn it."

She actually wanted to pat Chen Liyi's head like an ordinary clan elder, but since this person was the crown prince, even if Luo Yi had ten more guts, she wouldn't dare to actually slap him. She could only take a step back and place her palm on his shoulder: "Don't learn from me!"
