"Does royal father really think that little girl is good?" It was the first time Xuanyuan Zhi had asked this question to his royal father in such a frank manner. It was unknown when it had begun but he had realized that he was already worried about her.

Xuanyuan Zhenhua dropped another chess piece, but this time it landed right in front of him. Seeing his son's chess piece fall, he thought for a while before saying, "You don't think that you can see such a rare purity in that girl's eyes. Not every woman can be rich in this kind of purity."

After giving it some thought, Xuanyuan Qi pursed his lips and smiled. His mind was filled with that little mischievous appearance. Royal Father was right, even if one saw anger in her eyes, it would be very simple. Even hatred was short-lived.

"cherish it well, do not let happiness slip away from you." Xuanyuan Zhenhua looked at his son and placed another chess piece on the table.

Xuanyuan Qi picked up a chess piece and put it down. While his eyes were wandering around, he heard the footsteps of a woman coming from outside the door.

Humph!

With a cold laugh, he looked towards his royal father.

"What should come, will come sooner or later." Xuanyuan Zhenghua landed the last piece he had on his hands and stood up with a helpless sigh.

"Father!" Xuanyuan Qi wanted to speak up, but he only saw his royal father raise his hand, signalling him to shut his mouth.

Sure enough, as soon as Xuanyuan Zhi finished his words, Eunuch Lin ran into the room and reported, "Reporting to your majesty, the Empress requests an audience!"

"Let her come up!" Xuanyuan Zhenhua's expression was as if he had expected it.

Xuanyuan Qi stood to the side and stared intently at the outside of the pavilion. Of course he knew the purpose of the empress's visit. This petty woman must have thought that he had snitched on her, which was why she rushed over to see what was going on.

The empress put on her noble air, walked slowly with her head lowered, and bowed gracefully before the emperor. "Your consort pays her respects to the emperor!"

"Stand up!" Xuanyuan Zhenhua raised his head and smiled at the empress.

"Thank you, your majesty!" The empress bowed once again and raised her head to look at the emperor. The smile on her face turned into a foxy yet gentle smile, which made Xuanyuan Qi, who was standing at the side, feel disgusted.

However, since his father was right in front of him, he had no choice but to clasp his hands and bow. "I offer my respects to the empress!"

"Yo!" So it's Qi'er who's come. No wonder the emperor seems to be in an excellent mood. " It was rare for the empress to put on a fake smile at Xuanyuan Qi. Even she herself felt that her smile was fake.

Yes!" She came to see me today and played chess with me for a while. Happy! "It's rare that this child still remembers to accompany me. It's been quite a while since I've had such a natural joy." Xuanyuan Zhenhua's tone carried a hint of complaint, as he knew that the empress would understand.

"Chenqie is guilty, and chenqie wasn't able to properly educate Jie'er and Ye'er. Chenqie will definitely discipline you severely in the future." Of course, the empress knew what he meant when she heard his words. However, she felt that his appearance wasn't just for the sake of chess.

Xuanyuan Qi lowered his head, laughing in his heart. Looking at the empress's expression, he had already guessed what the woman was thinking.

Today, when she saw the novel, she cried like a tearful person. It was only then that he realized that he had grown up over the years. Furthermore, the top of royal father's head was already covered in silver threads. Actually, his appearance today was just purely to accompany royal father.

Clasping his hands, he revealed his second reason for coming today, "royal father, it is time for this son to leave as well. "Today, my little body isn't too well, I won't be able to come to the banquet tonight. Father, please don't be angry."

"What happened to that girl?" When it came to 'small', Xuanyuan Zhenhua was especially excited.

"Reporting to royal father, Xiaoxiao went to visit Pingfei last night, and her body was suffering from a bit of a cold. I was afraid that I would infect someone else, so I asked this child to come over and request. I won't come over tonight." When he came here, Xuanyuan Qi had already found a good excuse, but it was not easy for him to expose it.

"Look!" This girl really knew how to think for others. Good! It was accurate! Take good care of her. This girl's body seems a little too weak. " Xuanyuan Zhenhua thought to himself, 'Since I've entered the palace, I've often gotten sick, or some other ailment.'

"Royal father is right, it might be a little girl's habit in the sky, to come to our Azure Dragon Country, you need a period of time to get used to it." Xuanyuan Zhi then casually found an excuse, hoping that someone beside him would not speak carelessly.

It was a pity that as long as she found the chance, the empress wouldn't shut her mouth.

She shrugged and said with a bright voice: "I have already been married to the Azure Dragon Country for more than half a year, even if it's not soil and water, I should still submit. Qi'er, you have more time to accompany Xiao Xiao, that woman! Sometimes without the company of a man it becomes very fragile. "

"Esteemed Empress is right!" Heaven will pay attention. " But in her heart, she was constantly cursing that stinking woman.

Hehehe!

After laughing for a while, only then did he realize that he had gotten infected with this little woman's illness?

"Alright, Su'er, you go and prepare for it. The time is about right, so don't be late." Xuanyuan Zhenhua did not want to continue listening to the empress's blabbering, so he waved his hand to signal for Qi'er to leave.

"Your son shall take his leave!"

Seeing that royal father had spoken out to assist him, Xuanyuan Qi naturally ran away in a hurry. However, just as he was about to leave, he saw that the empress was about to start nagging again. The sweat on his forehead began to sweat profusely.

Father and son were father and son. There would always be times where their hearts and minds were connected. When Xuanyuan Zhenhua saw Qi'er's expression, he too immediately tried to strike up a conversation with the empress, leaving her with no time to pay attention to Qi'er. It was only then that she was able to smoothly walk out of the pavilion.

F * * k!

He finally stepped out of the old witch's grasp. It was time for him to prepare for tonight's banquet. This seemingly united and friendly dinner was generally the best place to engage in a verbal dispute. Especially when it came to Xuanyuan Jie, his stomach was never full, but rather filled with anger. In one night, at least half of their time was spent fighting with their eyes, and every time, they would feel completely exhausted. After drinking a few cups, they would feel dizzy.

He quickly walked through the dark corridor, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't be happy. Rubbing his fiercely throbbing eyelids, he shook his head, and his heart rose to mid-air.

Xiaoxiao once again walked into the rouge hall. After searching for a long time in the familiar courtyard, she finally found Princess Pingping who was trimming the branches and leaves of the rouge flower in the rouge courtyard.

Today, Pingfei seemed to be in a good mood, and she must have slept very well last night. His skin looked much softer.

"Why did you come here in broad daylight?" Pingfei had long since heard the tiny footsteps, so she was in a much better mood than before.

"Hehe!" I was a little worried about Mom, so I came to take a look. Did Mom sleep well last night? " The little boy smiled mischievously as he looked at the yard.

Heavens!

Was he dreaming?

That day, she had clearly seen the rouge flower completely wilt, but why, why was it that it was still a brilliant beauty? This was simply unimaginable. It was as if they were in a dream. Their vitality was truly too tenacious.

No matter how she looked at it, the flowers in this yard were still much prettier than the ones she kept. Could it be that the blooming of these flowers had something to do with Feng Shui?

That's not right!

As usual, the feng shui of Dragon Cry Hall was much better than the rouge hall. Unless there were many ghosts hidden under the soil. The beauty of these souls was entirely due to the irrigation of fresh blood.

"Mother, why are these flowers alive again?" Her mouth dropped open in surprise. She was like a scanning gun, not a single flower was spared. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it.

"Mom doesn't know either. I wanted to come the next morning to clean up the mess, but I didn't expect to see these flowers miraculously come alive. Furthermore, their blooming seems to be even more brilliant than before. Look at this plant, Big Sister likes this color. It's so beautiful. " Pingfei let out a sigh as well. She put her hands together and whispered to the heavens, "Thank you for protecting my soul in heaven, thank you sister!"

Really?

Was it really that person in heaven?

It was unbelievable, but he had no choice but to believe it. Xiaoxiao circled around the flower garden once, bending over, deeply smelling the faint fragrance of a rouge flower.

"Did you not encounter a great calamity with this flower? Will it grow prettier than before?" She looked curiously at Madam Ping.

Pingfei thought about it and felt that it was true. With a faint smile, she nodded and said, "En! Their lives are extremely tenacious. Being able to proudly release them is a type of experience. "

"I also want to become a rouge flower and live an absolutely strong life." She tilted her head, pursed her lips and said.

"Mother believes that you can do it. Oh right, why did he come in broad daylight? I saw that there were suddenly a lot of people outside the courtyard. Pingfei stopped, her relaxed expression becoming conflicted.

Upon closer inspection, why was his face so swollen? Looking again, the little girl's hand still had new wounds. They should have been caused by her not long ago.

When Xiaoxiao saw that Pingfei's gaze was on her, she stopped holding her hands in front of her chest. Lowering her head, she didn't want to let Princess Pingping worry too much.

"Who did this?" Pingfei pulled up her little hand and touched her skin. Her hand trembled. He looked at her with a pained expression and asked again, "Is it the crown prince?"

Xiaoxiao shook her head. If that brat dared to do this to her, she would definitely make him beg for death!

"It's that damned queen." Whisper, she whispered.

"That damnable woman, she's still not stopping even after killing big sister. She actually wants to make a move on you again." The moment Pingfei heard that it was the empress, her tone became agitated as she kept shaking her head.

She carefully held her little hand. She felt her heart ache, but more importantly, she was worried about the little girl's safety. If this continued, before he could find the location of the other jade pendant, Xiaoxiao would probably die. If Xiaoxiao is really elder sister's blood and bone, then one day, when I enter the underworld, I will be even more ashamed to see my sister's soul.

The more she thought about it, the more worried she became.

In the entire Azure Dragon Country, the only place one could hide people was the rouge hall. However, if a person of such status were to always stay in the rouge hall, it would definitely arouse some people's suspicions, and it would also harm the person's life. In this place, death was easy, but surviving was difficult.

However, staying like this wasn't really a solution for Xiaoxiao. Moreover, this girl was young and beautiful. How could she possibly live like this?

No!

She could not let Xiaoxiao die just like that.

"Mom, Xiaoxiao is fine. She's just worried that the empress might even dare to make a move against me, which might injure you. So let me see, did she come over to disturb your life?" Xiaoxiao patted Pingfei's hand, pretending that she didn't care. If she had known earlier, she would have come tomorrow. However, she couldn't stop herself from being impatient.
