Chapter 139

Butterfly shadow knocked on the vermilion Palace door several times. A familiar looking little eunuch immediately came to answer the door. He smiled and said, "the princess has been waiting in the back hall for a long time. Please come in, Miss Zhao."

Zhao Qingyao was overjoyed. It seems that the princess is still very close to herself. After nodding to the little eunuch, he quickly shuttled to the back hall with butterfly shadow.

It was Xiang He who took care of her a few days ago. "Please come inside, miss. The princess is waiting for you."

When Zhao Qingyao came in, she found a young woman dressed in a smile looking at her.

Zhao Qingyao quickly saluted and said, "my daughter, see the princess."

"Please forgive me." Chu Lingyun gently helped her up. "I heard from Xiang He that you were here that day, and I happened to be away. I sighed in my heart that I missed it. I'm very sorry. I'm so happy to know that you'll come again today. I'm stuck in the palace all day. Fortunately, I have a playmate. Otherwise, I'll suffocate."

Zhao Qingyao looked at Chu Lingyun's eyebrows and eyes, turned around and looked at Xiang He, hesitated and said, "how does the princess look like sister Xiang He?"

Chu Lingyun smiled and said, "the emperor specially sent me the Xiang lotus. I specially found one similar to me, which is as fun as looking in the mirror."

Zhao Qingyao saw Chu Lingyun with a naughty smile. As innocent as a child, a good feeling suddenly arose. "No wonder, the minister thought it was twins."

"So similar?" Chu Lingyun winked at her. "The twins are the ones in Fu Fei's stomach. It's just a coincidence between me and Xiang He."

Chu Lingyun welcomed Zhao Qingyao to his seat. Xiang he smiled and said, "what are you doing here? You don't bring your sister's favorite crab cake."

The princess's "sister" cry softened Zhao Qingyao's heart. It turned out that Princess Poyang was not as unkind as Jieyu said, but very clever and lovely. No wonder she could become the most beloved Princess of the emperor. "The princess really treats her courtiers..."

"My sister is too polite. I treat my sister as a friend," Chu Lingyun raised her hand to block her words. "My sister, call me Lingyun later. It's too strange to call the princess."

Zhao Qingyao's heart was hot and whispered, "Lingyun."

Chu Lingyun smiled brightly and cheerfully. She pulled her. "Eat dessert." she waved to butterfly shadow, "you too."

Butterfly shadow foolishly pointed to himself and asked, "do you have a share?"

"Of course," Chu Lingyun winked at Xiang He, "since crab cake is a good thing, it's best for everyone to eat together."

Xiang he smiled and gave butterfly shadow a small plate, "butterfly shadow girl, try it too."

The butterfly shadow smiled happily at Zhao Qingyao, took a big bite, and couldn't help praising: "this crab meal is really delicious and crisp."

"This is my favorite food in the palace," Chu Lingyun grabbed a piece, "and the imperial dining room sent one here every day."

Zhao Qingyao said somewhat awkwardly, "this crab cake is only available in the princess and Princess Fu's palace. I'm afraid I can't eat anything else."

"My sister went into the palace and became a empress. Wouldn't she eat it if she was pregnant with a dragon," Chu Lingyun said with a smile. "At that time, I'll call my sister empress Zhao."

Zhao Qingyao suddenly opened her eyes and her whole body was alert. How could the princess know her and Jieyu's plan and how did she know she was going to enter the palace.

Chu Lingyun pretended to be ignorant and looked at her. "Doesn't your sister enter the palace? My father and Emperor talked about my sister a few days ago. I thought my sister was going to be a concubine."

"The emperor mentioned me?" Zhao Qingyao looked forward to it. "How could the emperor mention me?"

Chu Lingyun lowered his head and smiled. "The emperor praised his sister's dim sum for its color, flavor and taste. If only he could taste her dim sum every day, doesn't it mean that her sister is going to enter the palace?"

Zhao Qingyao's lips were slightly upturned, and her cheeks were dyed red. She hung her eyes shyly and timidly, and said softly, "it seems that the emperor still remembers me."

"The emperor naturally remembers you. My sister has the color of the city and has good skills. How can the emperor forget you."

"Lingyun, stop teasing me," said Zhao Qingyao shyly, lowering her head and feeling hot on her face. "I'm afraid the emperor will dislike me."

"How come? My father and I like my sister very much," Chu Lingyun said with a smile. "Don't belittle your sister."

The master and servant talked and laughed for a long time. The sun had fallen at the foot of the mountain, and the rosy sunset tinted half of the sky, like a fairy overturning the rouge box into the water blue lake bay.

Zhao Qingyao and Chu Lingyun talked happily. They inadvertently saw the clouds spreading thousands of miles outside. They knew that it was late and stayed in the Princess Palace for too long.

Zhao Qingyao said anxiously, "Lingyun, Jieyu is still waiting for me in the palace. I have to go back quickly."

"It doesn't matter. I haven't had a playmate for a long time. I was happy to see my sister for a moment and didn't pay attention to the time." Chu Lingyun smiled gently.

"You go and see Miss Zhao off." Chu Lingyun patted Xiang He on the shoulder and pulled her lips.

Xue ronghua lifted the tassel curtain in front of the window. The sunset outside was like a fire burning all over half the sky. "What are you doing sitting in the house? Why don't you come to the courtyard to see the sunset?"

Chu Zongge put down his history books and smiled at her, "I've seen the sunset glow every day in the palace. It's really nothing strange."

Xue ronghua blinked and asked, "why don't you watch it today?"

Chu Zongge showed ambiguous eyes and looked her up and down, "today there are more beautiful characters than the sunset glow. What else can I see?"

Xue ronghua bit his lip, opened his eyes and said angrily, "do you want to annoy me by saying such words?"

"I don't dare to annoy you," Chu Zongge came over innocently, but his hand climbed up her waist. "Do you think my words are irritating you?"

Xue ronghua struggled a little under his palm and was easily controlled by him. "Don't mess around. This is in Xinyang hall."

"If you don't mess in Xinyang hall, where should you mess?" Chu Zongge's eyes were filled with soft ripples. "Don't move, I just want to hold you."

Xue ronghua couldn't help but relax as he listened to the strong coquettish smell in his voice. Seeing her lovely and docile appearance, Chu Zongge stretched out his hand and took her in his arms.

As soon as Xue ronghua approached his strong and generous body, his body immediately became tense, like a tight bow string.

"Don't be nervous," Chu Zongge said with a playful smile on his lips. He leaned in her ear and said in a deep voice, "I just want to hold you. I have no other ideas."

Xue ronghua's ears were hot with his hot and humid breath. She pushed him away with shame and anger, "who knows if you have any other ideas. Stay away from me."

"Well, well," Chu Zongge stepped back with a pure face, "I won't touch you."

Xue ronghua turned away, hid his panic and asked, "what are you going to do with the princess?"

"What are you doing with the princess?" Chu Zongge scratched his head. "Isn't the princess one of us? Are you talking about dealing with the emperor?"

The blush on Xue ronghua's cheeks deepened. She quickly explained, "I forgot... What are you going to do with the emperor?"

Chu Zongge curved her lips and didn't expose her panic after a short intimacy. "There's no plan. Follow Princess Poyang to the state of Qi according to the original plan."

"Don't you want to ask him again?"

"There's nothing to ask. On the contrary, we should stay away from him at this point," Chu Zongge gently breathed. "If the emperor wants to cultivate more princes for selection, let him go. When I come back from Qi, he will naturally understand my benefits."

Xue ronghua said with a smile, "you know."

"I can't help but know. After all, it's the person who died once in seizing the line," Chu Zongge showed a bitter smile. "I passed five passes and killed six generals all the way in the Imperial Palace, but I was still blocked by the emperor. I'm really tired. I don't want to do useless work. Let's go to the state of Qi to relax."

Xue ronghua smiled and said, "for me, it's another round of new war. There's no chance to rest."

"You can rest assured," Chu Zongge smiled soothingly at her, "I will help you avenge Meng Qianchong and Su Rushuang."

Xue ronghua looked at him gratefully and looked embarrassed. "I don't know what the situation is over Meng Qianchong now."

"Didn't you ask imperial concubine Fu," Chu Zongge said with a smile, "she came out of the state of Qi. Naturally, she still knows something about Meng Qianzhong."

"I dare not mention the state of Qi to her. I'm afraid it will reveal the truth," Xue ronghua hesitated. "Moreover, she taboo others to mention the state of Qi. It's also a torture of homesickness."

"Fu Fei will invite me to dinner with you in two days," Chu Zongge suggested. "You can take this opportunity to ask her, that is, you are going to see off relatives in the state of Qi and want to know about the customs and customs of the state of Qi."

Xue ronghua agreed: "it's a good idea and it seems natural."

Chu Zongge proudly raised his eyebrows, "you see, I still have a good idea."

Zhao Jieyu saw the shadow of the two palace lanterns at the gate of the palace and patted her chest with confidence. "You finally came back. I thought something had happened to you in the princess."

Zhao Qingyao smiled and held her arm. "Sister, you don't have to worry. What can happen to me at the princess."

Seeing her relaxed and cheerful smile, Zhao Jieyu asked expectantly, "can the princess still talk with you?"

"Of course," Zhao Qingyao soothingly touched her hand, "the princess and I hit it off very well. She took me to talk until the sunset and allowed me to go back to the palace."

"It's best that you two can talk together. Did you tell the princess, emperor?"

Zhao Qingyao smiled, "before I mentioned it, the princess mentioned it first and said that the emperor likes my snacks very much. I hope I can stay in the palace from time to time."

"Ouch," said Zhao Jieyu, elated, "isn't that what it means to allow you to enter the palace? My plan that I have prepared for so long has finally come true. In the future, the Zhao family will have our two imperial concubines."

"This is a great honor," said Zhao Qingyao with a smile. "Sister, don't be afraid of the princess. The princess is gentle, clever and approachable. I have to call her Lingyun."

"That's great. I'm afraid it's a difficult role," said Zhao Jieyu with a sigh of relief. "It's a pity that the princess will be sent to the state of Qi soon."

"I'm not here to make friends. If the princess becomes a concubine of the state of Qi, my sister will regenerate the next little princess for the emperor," Zhao Qingyao deliberately glanced at her stomach. "I'm afraid she's going to have a pet for many days."

"How can it be so fast? Besides, there are several new people in the palace. The emperor hasn't come to me for seven or eight days," said Zhao Jieyu, with lonely eyes and clenched her hand. "You should make good efforts and don't let others rob the emperor's favor."

Zhao Qingyao clasped her fingers and nodded like obeying an oath.
