Chapter 385 Apology

In the next few days, Bai Shuang learned from the maid who passed the word outside the palace gate that Princess Pingling had been inquiring about Xiao Li's preferences for the past few days, saying that since the two were already engaged, it was better to do a basic comparison first. good.

The two were given a marriage, and it was considered too obvious. Although Princess Pingling did it boldly, no one would say anything. As for whether she can find out anything, it is unknown.

"Illusions, they must be illusions!" Lin Zhuyu handed the tea to Su Ying, and said with determination.

Bai Shuang glanced at her, since the queen added chicken legs to her last time, she saw everyone as if they were staring at a thief.

"The emperor has already granted the marriage, so this matter is a foregone conclusion. They don't really want to resist the decree, do they?"

"I don't know if I will resist or not. Anyway, Princess Pingling must not be sincere. Things that can be found out by others must be things that I want to do for others to see!"

Su Ying stopped drinking tea, and looked at Lin Zhuyu approvingly, "Lin Zhuyu, you can do it."

Lin Zhuyu raised her rounded chin, "It's better to be educated by the empress."

Bai Shuang expressed contempt for Lin Zhuyu's flattery, "Princess Pingling won't be trying to make a fool of herself again, will she?"

"Yao Mozi, it should be punished. You think, what method will she think of not to marry the third prince?"

Both of them frowned when they heard this, what else could they do besides resisting the decree?

"Servants see the empress." While speaking, the maid who delivered the message came outside the door.

"Come in and talk."

The maid entered the room and bowed and said: "Empress, the palace sent someone over just now to say that Princess Pingling will hold a small tea tasting banquet in the palace tomorrow. I wonder if the empress would like to show her face?"

"Besides inviting me, who else?"

"The slaves don't even know."

"I went back and said that I will be there on time."

The maid responded and withdrew.

Su Ying glanced at the two of them and said with a smile, "Look, Yao Mozi is here."

"The servant will accompany the queen tomorrow." Lin Zhuyu was gearing up for a fight.

"good."

Princess Pingling's small tea-tasting banquet was said to be a banquet, but in fact only Su Ying was invited.

After Su Ying arrived at the palace, Princess Pingling and King Yu personally went to the gate of the palace to welcome Su Ying, and directly ushered Su Ying into the main seat of the main hall of the palace.

Princess Pingling took the teacup from the maid and came to Su Ying to bless her, and said sincerely: "Before, Xiulin was ignorant and offended the empress. To make amends, if the empress is unhappy and punishes Xiulin, Xiulin will have no complaints."

As she spoke, she lowered her head and offered the tea in her hand with a respectful attitude.

Su Ying didn't make things difficult for her, and directly reached out to take the teacup in her hand and put it on the tea table, "I accept this apology."

Princess Pingling smiled and stood up. Her appearance looked extremely harmless, especially her pair of round eyes, which made her look like a simple rabbit.

After she went to Su Ying and sat down, she asked the maid to bring some snacks.

At first glance, these snacks are somewhat different from what Su Ying ate before.

"Your Majesty, these dim sums are made by the imperial chef of our Nanlin Kingdom. They have the characteristics of the Southern Kingdom. I don't know if your Majesty likes them." As Princess Pingling said, she took a piece of dim sum and took a bite. It didn't look like she was eating, but It was testing Su Ying for drugs.

Compared with meat, Su Ying is actually not that interested in sweet snacks, she just took the quick crispy cheese and smelled it on the tip of her nose.

"Well!"

Princess Pingling suddenly covered her stomach in pain, and the snack in her hand rolled to the ground.

Looking at this posture, Lin Zhuyu felt that a good show was about to start, and immediately stopped Su Ying.

Su Ying's entire vision was blocked by her, she pressed the center of her eyebrows, and pulled Lin Zhuyu to the side, "Calm down."

The maids stepped forward to check the situation of Princess Pingling.

"Princess, what's wrong with you?"

"I, my stomach, my stomach hurts..."

"The servants help the princess into the house first."

The two maids stepped forward to help Princess Pingling into the inner hall together.

Su Ying glanced at a drop of bright red blood dripping on the ground.

"She doesn't want to blame the empress for poisoning her, is she? It's abominable! Empress, don't worry, the slaves will fight for their reasons, and we must not let the empress be slandered by her!"

"Go in and have a look." Su Ying looked away, got up and followed into the inner hall.

Princess Pingling was lying on the bed curled up in pain, her face was much paler than before.

"I have some medical skills, let me show the princess."

Princess Pingling nodded, "Then there will be Queen Lao."

As she spoke, she stretched out her hand to check Su Ying's pulse.

After checking the pulse, Su Ying glanced at her lightly, "The princess is fine, it's just menstruation, just take a good rest."

Hearing what Su Ying said, Princess Pingling blushed, "Really... why did I come early this month? I didn't expect it. I made the empress a joke. I also asked the empress to wait a while in the outer hall. Xiulin can make some adjustments." Come out and accompany the queen to continue drinking tea."

Confirming that there is nothing wrong with Princess Pingling, Su Ying went out of the inner hall and returned to the chair to sit down.

Not long after she sat down, King Yu came over.

"Empress, I don't know how the princess is doing?"

"It's nothing serious."

King Yu let out a sigh of relief when he heard the words, "It's good that it's fine. The princess has been weak since she was a child, and her father was very worried about being sick every three days. She will get better when she grows up." While speaking, the others sat on the chair sat down.

"Xiao Wang has some questions and wants to ask the Empress Empress. I wonder if the Empress Empress may explain Xiao Wang's doubts?"

Su Ying raised her eyebrows, "What does Prince Yu want to know?"

Yu Wangdao: "Ever since I saw the kung fu of the empress, Xiao Wang has admired the kung fu of the empress. I don't know where the empress learned from?"

"Self taught."

King Yu: "..." He felt humiliated!

"The empress is really a prodigy in martial arts, with every move, people really can't see any flaws..."

Su Ying listened to his chatter, and answered incongruously. She raised her eyes to look outside the hall, and the sun had already set.

Su Ying gently put the teacup on the table, and slowly stood up.

The moment she got up, Yu Wang also stood up subconsciously.

"Is the empress hungry? How about having dinner with the princess in the palace at night before going back."

Su Ying glanced in the direction of the inner hall. Princess Pingling hadn't come out since just now. The maid only said that she was too weak and had fallen asleep. Naturally, she couldn't disturb her.

"Alright, where is the clean room?"

Seeing that she just wanted to clean the room, King Yu secretly exhaled, "Come here, take the queen to the clean room."
