Since she knew how to act, she naturally wouldn't fall behind either. Feng Qingying smiled at Yue Lanyi, "Lanyi, we haven't seen each other for awhile, why are you so skinny now?"

"It's all because I'm thinking about my sister-in-law."

Yue Lanyi and Feng Qingying were joking.

"I was thinking about you too."

Feng Qingying also smiled naturally.

"Let's talk inside."

The three of them entered the residence together, Yue Lanyi followed beside Xiao Feimo and asked, but Xiao Feimo's attitude was a little cold, and the two of them chatted nonchalantly.

It was already dinner time, so Yue Lanyi had already ordered some people to prepare a large table of food. Feng Qingying glanced at the dishes on the table, and saw a few fishes, needless to say, know that these fishes were prepared for Xiao Feimo.

The three of them sat down together. Feng Qingying had long been hungry, so he had Lian Qiuji pour him a bowl of chicken soup. He was just about to drink it when Xiao Feimo, who was sitting beside her, lifted the bowl of chicken soup in his hands and said, "It's so cold outside today.

"Su Mu, bring the chicken soup down to heat it up."

It was only then that Feng Qingying noticed that the chicken soup did not emit any heat.

Yue Lanyi was startled, then said: "Look at my brain, Elder Brother Xiao is still the most attentive one, bring all of these dishes down to heat up."

Although he said this, he was extremely jealous in his heart. It had only been a short while, but the two of them had become so familiar with each other to such an extent.

If he wanted to, let him heat it up. Eating cold in the middle of winter was indeed uncomfortable, as the capital was much colder than Quanzhou.

"Lanyi, you've met the Emperor?"

Xiao Feimo suddenly asked after the dishes were all taken away.

Yue Lanyi's eyes dimmed, "Elder Brother Xiao also heard about it, I coincidentally met the emperor on the street, I didn't even know that it was the emperor, I didn't think that there would be such a thing."

"Are you willing to enter the palace?"

All these years, it's all thanks to the Elder Brother Xiao that he took care of me. I owe the Elder Brother Xiao nothing, and if I were to enter the palace to help the Elder Brother Xiao, I would be willing to enter the palace. "

Yue Lanyi solemnly said to Xiao Feimo.

That serious look on his face was really touching.

Feng Qingying laughed coldly in her heart after hearing this. This move of Yue Lanyi's had been used to retreat in order to advance, but this matter had nothing to do with her. She was too lazy to even speak.

He would just treat it as watching a show.

Lanyi, once you enter the palace, you will be as deep as the sea. The palace is not a place for you to go, and women are not allowed to stay, so it is indeed time for you to get married. I will help you choose a good husband, and there are so many outstanding noble sons and daughters in the capital.

Yue Lanyi's expression changed. She apparently did not expect Xiao Feimo to have such a plan, as she shook her head and said, "Elder Brother Xiao, I'm willing to enter the palace. I did it on my own accord, Elder Brother Xiao took care of me for so many years.

"This King doesn't need you to do anything. If you can live your life peacefully, This King is relieved."

"But I want to do something for Elder Brother Xiao."

"There's no need to say this again. This King does not wish to say it a second time."

Yue Lanyi bit her lips, as if she had suffered a great grievance, and didn't continue speaking, nodding her head, "Then I'll listen to Elder Brother Xiao."

Feng Qingying did not speak from start to finish. When the chicken soup was brought over, he immediately scooped it and drank it.

The last time she and Yue Lanyi had proposed for her to enter the palace, Yue Lanyi had strongly opposed their request. This time, they had actually asked to enter the palace on their own, and even knew how to judge the situation.

No matter where Yue Lanyi went, she hoped that Yue Lanyi would leave the Prince Regent's Palace soon.

"The fish at home are still as delicious as always. This fish doesn't have spikes on it, so eat more."

Xiao Feimo gave Feng Qingying a piece of fish. Feng Qingying was not used to Xiao Feimo being so considerate, but he did not reject either and accepted it.

Yue Lanyi, who was sitting on the other side of Xiao Feimo, nearly choked on his words. Forcefully enduring the discomfort in his heart, he continuously cursed Feng Qingying in his heart.

The next day, Xiao Feimo went to the imperial court early in the morning. After going to the imperial court, he first went to look for the emperor, then went to the Yongan Palace, and only returned to his residence when it was almost dark. No one knew what he said to the emperor and the Empress Dowager Zhu.

Yang An incited a few old officials to introduce the matter, but the emperor did not say anything, he only said that the matter would be discussed after the Spring Festival.

Thus, no one brought up the matters that would happen after. After all, the Spring Festival was near, and the emperor was very busy. He busied himself with offering sacrifices to the heavens and to the ancestors.

Feng Qingying did not have much time to spare, she only had to settle the accounts with him for the entire year, and could not finish the accounts every day. She could have called Yue Lanyi over to help out, but she could not bear to see Yue Lanyi get annoyed, so she called Lateral Consort Li over.

However, Lateral Consort Li's efficiency was something she could not afford to praise.

"Esteemed wangfei, this account has been reconciled. Esteemed wangfei, please take a look." Lateral Consort Li held out an account book to Feng Qingying, and carefully handed it over to him.

At this time, Feng Qingying had already checked three books, and his speed was almost three times faster than the Lateral Consort Li.

She took the account book, casually flipped through it and put it aside, "Lateral Consort Li, don't be afraid, I don't eat people, there's no need to be so careful when talking to me."

"I have noted it down."

Lateral Consort Li was still very reserved.

Feng Qingying was a little dizzy from watching this. When the stone bamboo came over with two cups of tea, she casually chatted with the Lateral Consort Li, "Lateral Consort Li, how long have you been in the residence for?"

"I've already been in the Palace for three years."

"You entered the estate with the Zhu Clan."

"Yes."

The Lateral Consort Li didn't know why Feng Qingying would ask such questions, he was obviously very nervous.

"I'm just casually asking. There's no other reason. You don't have to be afraid."

This woman was especially bold and timid. Lateral Consort Li was born in a large family, and was also a concubine. She never thought that she would be so timid, wishing to become a transparent person in the Prince's house.

This was definitely a way of survival.

"Princess, if there's anything else you want to ask, you can ask directly."

Originally, Feng Qingying was just chatting casually. When Lateral Consort Li said this, she really didn't have any more questions.

"Since you're so afraid of me, I have nothing else to ask."

"Princess, there's something that I don't know whether I should say or not."

"Go ahead."

"Although I have been in the palace for three years with the Zhu Family, in truth, I have never served the Prince. I am still a virgin, so I presume the Zhu Family is the same."

This matter exploded in Feng Qingying's ears like a thunderclap. She must have heard it right!

"What did you say!"

"What I've said is true. The prince treats the princess differently, so I don't dare ask for anything else. I only want a place to settle down."

Lateral Consort Li replied with trembling hands.

Even if he didn't like these two women, she was still his legitimate concubine. And it had been three years, could it be that he didn't have any requirements at all, or that Xiao Feimo had some sort of problem?
