"There's such a thing?" Xiao Qing suddenly whispered.

Riko lowered her head and grabbed a piece of pastry. Just as she was about to pass it over, she muttered to herself, "Miss, what did you say?"

"Oh, nothing." Xiao Qing then took the pastries, "To the Young Master, follow... "Mm, about me, what do you think about me?"

The previous Xiao Qingran had a very good temper. At that time, she was often bullied in the general's manor. If there really was an elder brother that loved and protected her so much, how could she be so happy and conflicted?

"I'm not too sure about that, but whenever Eldest Young Master comes looking for Miss, Miss will always avoid him. Even if you can't avoid speaking to Eldest Young Master, Eldest Young Master has blocked everyone else's view." "However, I can tell that Eldest Young Master treats Miss sincerely. Previously, when Second Miss was here, she often bullied Miss and Eldest Young Master helped her block it many times."

Xiao Qing raised her eyebrows. She did not have this sovereign's memories. If it wasn't for Riko, she would not have known at all: "If that's the case, when this big brother returns, I'll have to thank him properly."

"Yeah."

At the same time, within the empress dowager's palace.

When the teacup was smashed onto the ground, splashing water everywhere, fragments of the porcelain cup were scattered everywhere. This was already the sixth tea cup today.

Lan Ying sat on the upper seat and slapped the table heavily. She was furious, "Impudent, this is too outrageous! Su Qianhan truly thinks that I can be a bully, right? As a prince, he dares to make such a small thing in the harem.

At first, she was confused as to why there would be so many bad things happening in the palace. She had been in charge of the harem for so many years, and this was something that had never happened before.

"Imperial Concubine, please calm your anger. If you get so angry, your body won't be well." When the door closed, she took a step forward and consoled them, "This servant knows that the Empress is angry, but this matter is of utmost importance. Recently, the harem has been in a state of unrest, and His Majesty has already expressed his opinion of the Empress.

"Plans? What plans could I have? Could it be that I should go before His Majesty and tell him that all of this was caused by the Duke of Han? I have no proof and I have no proof. Furthermore, His Majesty is biased towards Su Qianhan, so how could he possibly believe me? "

"Although His Majesty won't believe it, the Empress still has to do what the head of the imperial harem has to do. Fortunately, the Duke of Han also quieted down in the past two days. The people of the harem have already investigated everything and there won't be any more forks."

Lan Ying said angrily, "What's the use of that? Your Majesty feels that I'm not strict with the harem and is rather dissatisfied with it. With that slut in the palace, I'm sure that Your Majesty will soon be estranged from the harem. When that happens, won't the harem be able to cover the skies with one hand?"

"Empress, you worry too much. Noble Ding is just a noble person. She only has one princess under her knee. How can she be comparable to the imperial concubine and His Majesty married for many years? Furthermore, she even has two princes as security?"

Lan Ying's complexion improved a little when she heard her mention of her child, but her anger didn't subside. "Although she's just a noble person, she was initially promoted without being able to sleep with a noble person, and after that, she only gave birth to a daughter who became a noble person. Although His Majesty hasn't bestowed her any more titles for so many years, she has always been a person of honor, so is that not enough for me to fear?"

Lan Ying clenched her fists tightly, gritting her teeth in anger. "Of course, it's good that you can do that, but Qian Jie is not worth it. A prince is actually being beaten by a princess, he's just messing around every day, not giving me any face at all!" In the afternoon, go and tell him that I should go to the wall of the library to reflect on his actions! "

"Yes." Zhao Ran kneeled down and bowed. "Empress, don't be angry yet. First, think about how you should settle the matters of the palace."

Lan Ying let out a heavy breath, trying her best to calm down. "Then, according to what you said, how should we handle this matter?"

"His Majesty and the Empress have not been husband and wife for a day or two. The Empress's usual ways of doing things are in the eyes of the emperor, but this time it was just a small fry wanting to make things difficult for the Empress. However, the Empress could not say anything, but could only bear with it in vain." Zhao Ran paused to take in a deep breath and carefully observed Lan Ying's reaction. He noticed that although Lan Ying's expression was extremely ugly, she didn't flare up, so he continued, "Empress just go find His Majesty and help him take care of everything that has happened in the past few days of the palace."

"What?" You want me to drag all this dirty water onto myself? " Lan Ying raised her voice.

"Empress, don't worry. Wait for this servant to finish speaking." Zhao Ran bent over and said, "Empress, you just need to show the bearing of a filial mother to the world and capture two people to take the blame. His Majesty knows that the Empress understands your hardships and will not blame the Empress too much. Furthermore, although these series of events have caused the imperial harem to be in a state of panic, there have not been any major mistakes. His Majesty merely wants the Empress to give an explanation, so he definitely will not make things difficult for the Empress. "

Lan Ying knitted her brows. Listening to her analysis, she felt that it made sense. After thinking for a long time, she replied, "This method is indeed feasible. Since it's like this, I'll find His Majesty later to settle this matter. It's just that, on the other hand, Su Qianhan …"

She gritted her teeth with unwillingness, "Although I can't move that man for the time being, that doesn't mean that others can't move him either! Go, tell those people to go out again. Last time, Su Qian Han was unable to do anything to that girl.

"..." "Yes."

For the past two days, the Residence of Han had been quiet, but the owner of the house, who had a bad temper, did not seem happy at all. Everyone in the entire house had been busy with their own matters, not daring to speak for fear of causing trouble if they were unlucky.

Of course, Su Qianhan wasn't the type of person to vent his anger on others just because he was in a bad mood. One could see his gloomy expression.

The stifling atmosphere in the mansion made him unable to hold on, not to mention that he usually went to the study room to get close to the most untouchable of people. If a person was forced into a corner, they would easily think of some messy method, and a sudden wind was also one of them.

When Liu Suifeng heard that he was going to persuade Su Qianhan, he was almost jumped up and pierced a big hole in the roof, "What are you talking about? You want me to persuade that man? Are you sure? "You gave me a lot of face when he found out that I secretly investigated him last time. If it wasn't for me detoxifying him, I'm afraid this time, I'll probably be a high ranked elder on the grave. Now that I've only been settled for a few days, you want me to mess with him again?"

"It's different this time." Sprint was wearing a mask, so his expression could not be seen. However, one could hear the unspeakable tone in his voice, "This time, it is to get you to come up with an idea."

The people inside the palace were basically all personally brought up by the Prince, including himself. The Fifth Prince had been trapped in the palace recently, so no matter how much he thought about it, he could only think of this solution to this problem.

"I don't care about that, I don't care about anything." Liu Suifeng sat at the corner of the table with a vigilant look on his face, "Let me tell you, we haven't had any enmity in the past two days, so you don't want to harm me. Why do you have so many talented people in the Residence of Han? Su Qianhan knew that there was nothing she couldn't do. What could a doctor like him do? There's nothing I can do for him unless he's lovelorn. "

The expression under the mask changed, and he said with a strange tone, "That's about right."

Even though I wasn't lovelorn, it did have something to do with women.

Liu Suifeng was stunned and blinked his eyes in a silly manner. After some time, he suddenly raised his voice a few times, "What did you say?!"

No matter what, in the end, Liu Suifeng still went to knock on the study door fully armed. This was not because he was considerate, but because he had put in a lot of effort.

"Come in." Su Qianhan's voice came from inside, but the two of them seemed to be very cold.

Liu Suifeng unconsciously shivered, then laughed as he pushed open the door and entered.

Su Qian Han placed his palms together on the table. It was rare for him to not write or to be reading. From the looks of it, he seemed like he was about to ascend to the Immortal Realm. He must have been stunned for the whole morning.

"Why is it you?" Su Qianhan frowned, "What's the matter?"

He had been in a bad mood these past two days. It wasn't just because Xiao Qing Ran had found trouble in the palace and gave him a list of lovebirds. More importantly, he found out that the woman had been sitting opposite of the Han Clan for an entire afternoon.

Thus, Su Qianhan suddenly thought of how the two of them had talked apart from the past few years of defending each other. However, every time, they would either leave each other or leave each other peacefully, never once did they really sit down and talk to each other. Most of the time, she would treat him with hostility and vigilance.

But now, that woman was able to speak so freely to a man he had just met. This made him feel upset. Was he inferior to an ordinary young master of an official's family?

Compared to that, our Duke Han is getting more and more angry.

Liu Suifeng laughed and rubbed his hands together. He stood three steps away from the desk, glanced at the safe distance, and then carefully took half a step back, "That … Duke Han? "

He spoke in a probing manner because the two of them had never spoken to each other face to face before. This was the first time they had spoken to each other, so Liu Suifeng did not even feel the need to address them as such.

Su Qianhan frowned. He must have sensed it too, "What is it, speak up."

"Actually, I'm not too big of a deal. I just heard that you've been in a bad mood recently, so I wanted to come and help …"

"Get out." Su Qianhan's face turned ugly as he threw out the word, interrupting the rest of the sentence.
