Chapter 381: beg the queen

Chapter 381 Begging the Empress

Ever since the warriors from the southern kingdom were severely beaten by Su Ying at the banquet, this group of people seemed to have died in the palace, and there was no movement at all.

If Princess Pingling hadn’t suddenly asked to see her today, Su Ying really couldn’t remember this group of people.

Su Ying was not in a hurry to meet people, but let the palace maid lead Princess Pingling in after breakfast.

Princess Pingling's dress looks very simple and elegant, with only a lotus pendant on her head and jade hibiscus petals on her ears, making her plump, white face as holy and soft as a lotus flower.

Princess Pingling walked into the hall, knelt down softly and bowed to Su Ying, even the meticulous hair on her head showed reverence.

"See Empress Empress."

Su Ying's eyes fell on her, "Princess, don't be too polite, get up."

"Thank you, empress." Princess Pingling didn't get up, but straightened up and looked at Su Ying with a begging face.

"Pingling came here today to ask for something, and I also ask the empress to fulfill it."

Su Ying propped her chin with her hands, her phoenix eyes drooped slightly, and her whole body exuded a lazy atmosphere. She didn't even move her eyebrows when she said this, "Oh? Let me tell you what's going on."

Princess Pingling looked at the maids waiting on her left and right, "I implore the queen to step back from the left and right."

Su Ying raised her fingertips slightly, signaling that the people in the inner hall retreated.

Soon, only Su Ying and Princess Pingling were left in the hall.

Princess Pingling kowtowed to Su Ying, her eyes were red and she choked with sobs: "I beg the queen to help Pingling, the emperor brother and father want me and my relative Chu to marry the emperor, but I can see that the empress and the emperor I don’t want to be the person who destroys the relationship between the queen and the emperor, so I beg the queen to send me out of the city.”

Su Ying raised her eyelids, "You want to get out of the capital, what will happen next? People here are unfamiliar, where can you go?"

Princess Pingling lowered her eyes and showed a shy look on her face, "Yes, there are people who are waiting for me outside the city. We will leave Chu State and we will definitely not cause any trouble to the Queen."

Su Ying slowly sat up straight, "You mean to ask me to help you escape from Chu State?"

Princess Pingling nodded, "Yes, please let the queen do it."

"Why should I help you?"

Princess Pingling said: "I have a map of the formation of troops on the southern border. If the queen is willing to help me, I will offer the map with both hands."

Hearing the words, Su Ying slowly sat up straight, her gaze was like a torch, "Do you know what you are talking about?"

Princess Pingling pursed her lips and said: "They don't care about my life, why should I care about them? As long as the queen is willing to help me, I will definitely not let the queen down!"

"unnecessary."

Princess Pingling was stunned, "What did the queen say?"

"Didn't your southern country lose?"

Princess Pingling choked, "This, this may, may be useful in the future..."

"That's enough, step back, I'll just pretend I don't know what happened today."

She wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Su Ying's cold eyes.

Princess Pingling could only leave unwillingly.

Mother Zhao asked Princess Pingling about her visit after entering the palace, and she was stunned when she learned that she wanted Su Ying to send her out of the city.

"Is she going to elope with someone? Your Majesty, you can't do this." Regardless of whether this matter succeeds or fails, it will not bring any benefits to Su Ying, and there is no need for her to get involved.

Su Ying tapped on the tea table with her fingertips, "En."

When Xiao Jue forced the palace before, the capital was so chaotic, no one cared about the situation in the palace, and that King Yu would definitely pay attention to the movements of the palace all the time. If Princess Pingling really wanted to run, it would not be a matter of minutes , but she didn't run away, but ran at this time to say that she would fulfill her.

I really think she is a fool.

"The empress means..."

"Wait a minute, what are they really going to do? If there is really any conspiracy, it is impossible to give up without success once, and wait."

"Your Majesty said so."

At night, after Xiao Jin arrived at Fengluan Palace, Su Ying told him about Princess Pingling's visit during the day.

After listening, Xiao Jin frowned and said: "I won't let her marry into the harem."

Su Ying glanced at Xiao Jin, feeling that there was something wrong with his focus, "You shouldn't be wondering why she did this? Why did she just find me?"

Xiao Jin pondered for a moment before seriously replying: "Maybe I think you are kinder?"

Su Ying smiled, "Xiao Jin, this joke is really cold."

"Where is it cold? I'll keep you warm."

Su Ying slapped his outstretched hand away, not understanding why every time he saw her, his eyes looked like a wolf who had seen meat.

Xiao Jin grabbed her hand and put it on the tip of his nose to smell it, "Have you eaten beef jerky tonight?"

"right."

"I'm hungry, let me try it too." Xiao Jin pulled her into his arms as soon as his arms tightened, and accurately captured the mouth that had eaten beef jerky.

Just as the two were about to communicate in depth, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door.

"Your Majesty, something happened in the palace."

In the inner hall, the two people who were getting better and better had no intention of stopping.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

"boom!"

The door of the inner hall was suddenly pulled open, and the servant looked up and saw Xiao Jin's dark face sinking into the bottom of the pot, so frightened that he wished he could die on the spot!

"What's up."

"Returning to the emperor, the forbidden army guarding the palace just now reported that Princess Pingling of the Southern Kingdom has disappeared. It is suspected that she was kidnapped. The forbidden army has now sent more people to look for it."

The expression on Xiao Jin's face became darker and darker, "Then continue to search, search inside and outside the palace closely."

"yes."

Xiao Jin turned around and went back to the inner hall, but before he got back to the bed, the sound of footsteps outside the door sounded again.

"Your Majesty, King Yu of Nanguo asks to see you."

The veins on Xiao Jin's forehead twitched, "He better tell me something big!"

Xiao Jin turned to the direction of the bed, "Wait for me to come back."

After finishing speaking, he turned and left reluctantly.

In the bed, Su Ying rubbed the center of her brows angrily. After such a toss, she lost all sleepiness, so she simply got up to eat supper.

Bai Shuang hurried to the imperial dining room and asked He Shouyi to prepare some food for Su Ying.

After eating and drinking enough, Xiao Jin didn't come back, and he didn't know what King Yu said for so long, Su Ying yawned, and simply lay down on the bed.

When she opened her eyes again, the sky outside was already bright, and there were traces of being crushed beside the bed. She remembered that Xiao Jin came back last night.

Su Ying has the habit of doing morning exercises, and the first thing she does after getting up early is to go out for morning exercises.

Su Ying came out of Fengluan Palace, intending to thoroughly understand every corner of the palace through morning exercises.

She ran slowly along the bluestone road, and the maids along the road only felt a person running towards them, but before they could see clearly, that figure disappeared again.

Su Ying ran to the rockery in the back garden and did a simple stretch. There was an artificial lake in front of it. Because there are few people in the harem now, no one would come here early in the morning.

Su Ying was about to leave when she heard a slight movement from the rockery behind her.
