No. 1 Girl in the Imperial City

Chapter 585

"It's you again?!" The arrogant woman was furious when she saw Luo Junyao, and stared at her coldly.

Luo Junyao supported Zhu'er to stand upright, and then slowly said: "Madam, it seems not good to hurt people casually, right?"

"What's none of your business?" the woman said: "Do you really think that if you get the empress dowager's blue eyes, you can ascend to heaven in one step? Don't forget, the king has the final say in this palace!"

Luo Jun smiled and said: "Oh? If that's the case, I'm going to see the queen, why don't you go with me? Let's judge in front of the queen?"

The woman's expression changed slightly when she heard the words, and she said in a bit of embarrassment: "Who wants to judge with you? Just meddle in your own business!" After saying that, she gave the two of them a vicious look, and then walked away with her people swaggeringly.

"I just thanked Miss Chuchu." Zhu'er came back to her senses and said gratefully.

She knew that if this Chuchu girl hadn't helped her in time, she might have hit her head directly when she fell to the ground.

Luo Jun shook his head and said, "Ma'am, you don't need to be too polite, I just happened to meet and help you out. Do they... bully you often?"

Zhu'er smiled, shook her head and said, "No, she's just been in a bad mood these two days."

Luo Junyao raised his eyebrows in surprise, but this girl has really changed a lot in just this short period of time.

Luo Junyao felt that her father and brother were really cruel. He clearly knew the situation she might have in this palace of the Qi clan, and even knew that the palace of the Qi clan might soon cease to exist. Send her to the King City of the Qi Clan.

For this reason, Xie Yan also specifically talked to the Lord of Wumo City. Xie Yan felt that there was no need to sacrifice an extra woman, and it was unnecessary to allocate an extra manpower to protect her.

It's a pity that the city lord of Wumo still insists on this.

The lord of Wumo thought that if Dasheng's plan to attack the king's city of the Qi clan failed, and there was a princess in King Qi's harem, maybe King Qi would not blame them.

City Lord Wumo's thoughts cannot be said to be completely wrong.

They didn't really surrender to Dasheng originally, they just wanted to take the opportunity to rebel against the Qi tribe.It would be good if Dasheng wins, but if Dasheng loses, they can continue to bow their heads and let the Qi people order them.

"You offended them, so be more careful in the future." Pearl reminded in a low voice.

Luo Jun shook his head: "I have the backing of the Empress Dowager, so I'm not afraid. It's you..."

Zhu'er said: "It doesn't matter to me, in fact, apart from being a little angry, I didn't suffer any other harm. The king treats me... well." But every time King Qi came to visit her, those women would bully her .

Fortunately, King Qi was not very interested in her, and King Qi only sat with her twice during the few days he entered the palace.

Zhu'er thought about the entrustment of her father and brother when she came to the King City of the Qi Clan, and felt that she could live on.

It's just that there is no news from the palace, and I don't know what happened to the second brother?

Luo Junyao didn't know what to say, so he could only sigh softly and said, "Ma'am, be careful. I heard that the queen has a good character. Madam might as well go to the queen when she is free."

Zhu'er said: "Miss, are you going to the queen's palace?"

"Exactly."

Zhu'er glanced at her, and said softly: "The queen is in a bad mood these days, girl, please be careful."

"Thank you, Ma'am." Luo Jun thanked Zhu'er and said goodbye to her.Before leaving, he advised in a low voice: "The palace is very chaotic these days, Madam, be careful and don't go out. Maybe after a while, it will be fine."

Zhu'er was stunned when she heard the words, looked at Luo Jun in surprise, then nodded and said: "Okay, thank you for reminding me, miss."

After bidding farewell to Zhu'er, when Luo Junyao followed the queen's maid into the queen's palace, he saw the queen half leaning on the steps with a sick face.

How many days have passed?The queen has suffered so much.

But the palace did not seem to say that the queen was ill.

"I have seen my lady."

The queen opened her eyes and glanced at Luo Junyao, then said calmly, "Miss Chuchu is here."

Luo Junyao responded: "I heard that the queen mother has something to offer to the queen mother, and she dare not work on the people around her. Chu Chu was ordered by the queen mother to take it." But Bai Jingrong did not tell her what exactly he wanted to take.

The queen was silent for a moment, then she chuckled lightly and said, "That's right, I was about to send someone to deliver it."

While speaking, the queen struggled to sit up.

Seeing that her actions were really difficult, and it didn't seem like she was pretending to be sick, Luo Junyao couldn't help but stepped forward to help her up.

"My queen, take care of yourself."

The queen looked at her for a long time before she chuckled lightly and said, "You're an interesting girl, why did you come into this kind of place?"

"Chuchu's family is in trouble. If the empress dowager hadn't hung the curtains, maybe she would have to go to a place like the slave house to suffer." Luo Jun said.

The queen shook her head, turned to the maid next to her and said, "Go and get my gold-plated box."

"Yes."

The maid went away in response, but came out holding a gold-plated box in a moment.

The queen took the box and handed it to Luo Junyao, saying: "Take it back to the empress dowager, she will understand after reading it."

Luo Junyao responded respectfully, got up holding the box and was about to leave.

The queen raised her eyebrows and said, "Aren't you curious about what's inside?"

"Chuchu dare not." Luo Jun shook his head.

The queen smiled and waved her hand to signal that she could go, "The queen mother has good eyes."

"Chuchu leave." Luo Jun bowed and bid farewell to the queen, and left the queen's palace holding the box.

The queen asked her if she was not curious about what was inside?Luo Junyao was indeed not very curious.

Because she had noticed the box as soon as she got it, there was nothing in the box, it was an empty box.

The day before yesterday, Bai Jingrong gave the queen a dagger, but today the queen gave Bai Jingrong an empty box. I don't know what kind of riddle the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are playing.

Luo Junyao was holding the box and walked all the way to Bai Jingrong Palace. Before he reached the gate of the palace, he was blocked by someone without any surprise.

Luo Junyao looked at the person standing in front of him, took a step back vigilantly, and hid the gilt box behind him.

"..." The person standing in front of him silently watched the actions of the pretty girl in front of him, as if he didn't know what to say for a moment.

After a while, the man said: "Miss Chuchu, Your Majesty's invitation."

Luo Junyao blinked his eyes, and said: "I am on an errand under the orders of the Empress Dowager, or... I will go to see the king after I go back and hand in the errand?"

After a moment of hesitation, she added: "Is that okay?"

The man gave her a "what do you say" look.

Luo Junyao still dawdled and refused to move, and said, "But the Empress Dowager..."

The man said in a deep voice: "Miss Chuchu, the king wants to see you now. You can decide for yourself which is more important."

"Oh." Luo Jun shook his head and said listlessly to the man, "Then let's go."

Recently, after acting for a long time, Luo Junyao felt that he was almost getting used to this identity.

It is said that she is Bai Jingrong's adopted daughter, so she has no human rights in this palace?

It's enough for the mother and son to fight for power and make everyone feel uneasy.

Looking at Luo Junyao who came in behind the guard, Ji Zhan narrowed his eyes slightly.

He saw this girl last time, after saying those words, he originally thought that there must be some movement from this girl.Unexpectedly, this girl didn't know whether she was really stupid or fake, and she still followed the Queen Mother every day, or hid in her room to read, squatted in the garden in a daze, and didn't have the slightest intention of going outside to have a look.

Could it be that she really thinks that the queen mother has a good chance of winning, and that she can sit back and relax by following the queen mother?

Thinking of this, Ji Zhan's face darkened.

From the very beginning, he didn't like the girl that the queen mother randomly got, but now he thought that this girl not only has no wink, but also no eyesight, and he doesn't like it even more.

The queen mother still wants to give this girl to him?
What kind of beauties are there in the harem?

The queen mother got such a girl with poor appearance and ability, she was clearly trying to dissuade him on purpose!
"I have seen the king."

Ji Zhan stared at her and said, "Do you know why this king wants to see you?"

Luo Jun shook his head honestly, who knows?Anyway, she felt that there was something wrong with Bai Jingrong and Ji Zhan.

Ji Zhan snorted coldly and said, "I don't know? It seems that you have forgotten what the king told you a few days ago?"

"I haven't forgotten," Luo Junyao retorted, and said softly: "But... Your Majesty is my benefactor after all, and my life is now in my Majesty's hands. No matter how nice the King's words are, if Your Majesty wants to kill me, you will There is no way, right? For example...the two generals of the Bai family army."

Ji Zhan's eyes sharpened instantly, and he fixedly stared at Luo Junyao.

Queen Luo shrank back, and said in a low voice, "It's useless for you to stare at me, that's what the Empress Dowager said."

Hearing this, Ji Zhan's gaze gradually softened.He sized Luo Jun up and said: "What you said is not wrong, so the two generals of the Bai family army were indeed killed by Qu Fang?"

Luo Jun shook his head and refused to speak, Ji Zhan asked again: "Have you ever talked to Qu Fang, what kind of person do you think he is?"

Luo Jun shook his head and remained silent.

Ji Zhan snorted coldly, and set her eyes on the box in her hand.

Luo Junyao hurriedly raised his hand to cover it, but most Qi girls' clothes had narrow sleeves, so how could they cover such a big gilded box.

"Open."

Luo Jun shook his head quickly.

Ji Zhan sneered, reaching out to snatch the box.

Luo Junyao held the box in his arms and got up to run, "Your Majesty, the Queen gave this to the Empress Dowager. If you want to know what it is, wouldn't it be good to ask the Queen or come with me to see the Empress Dowager?" Although it is not as strict as the Central Plains, there is no reason for a son to rummage through his mother's things, right?"

Ji Zhan said with a cold face, "She is such a loyal girl."

Luo Junyao hugged the box, and said cautiously: "No matter what, I can't fail to do what the Empress Dowager ordered me to do."

"If the king must watch it?" Ji Zhan narrowed his eyes and asked.

Luo Jun shook his head and said, "Then...then I, the king, kill me first!"

Ji Zhan was silent for a long time before saying coldly: "Get lost!"

Luo Junyao was not surprised, and happily rolled away holding the gold-plated box.

As soon as Luo Junyao walked out of the hall, he saw Qu Fang standing not far away, obviously waiting for her.

She immediately lifted the hem of her skirt and quickly ran towards Qu Fang.

"Mr. Qu!"

Qu Fang glanced at him, then looked up at the palace behind him, then turned around and walked towards Bai Jingrong's palace.

Luo Junyao didn't care, and quickly followed Qu Fang's footsteps.

"Mr. Qu, is it your mother who asked you to pick me up?" Luo Jun shook his voice and said, "Don't worry, I didn't show the king what's inside."

Qu Fang lowered his eyes, and the corners of his lips moved slightly.

His voice seemed extremely low, but it was very clear in Luo Junyao's ears.

"Is the princess addicted to pretending?"

Luo Junyao felt a little embarrassed, touched his forehead and said in a low voice, "Mr. Qu laughed, I never thought that Mr. Qu would really come back."

Qu Fang was silent.

The two walked towards Bai Jingrong's palace in silence one after the other.

Seeing that it was not far from the gate of the palace, Luo Junyao asked in a low voice: "Mr. Qu is back at this time, why?" If it was said that Qu Fang came to help them as an undercover agent, Luo Junyao would never believe it. .Not to mention that Qu Fang is not capable of doing this kind of thing at all, now that she is by Bai Jingrong's side, a top expert like Qu Fang is worth far more outside than staying by Bai Jingrong's side.

Qu Fang said indifferently: "Learn some old things from that year."

Luo Junyao slightly tilted his head to look at Qu Fang in surprise.

Qu Fang said: "Don't worry, I won't reveal anything about you and the Prince Regent."

"Even if Mrs. Rong suffers a crushing defeat because of this?" Luo Jun raised his eyebrows and asked.

Qu Fang lowered his eyes and said: "Now that things have happened, does she still have a chance of winning?"

Bai Jingrong felt that Qu Fang didn't understand these things, but it wasn't that Qu Fang didn't understand, he just didn't want to participate.

Back then, Qu Fang admired Bai Jingrong because of her arrogance and ambition that were higher than most men in the world.After so many years, Qu Fang already understood that Bai Jingrong was doomed to fail from the very beginning.

This world is too harsh on women, and Bai Jingrong has gone the wrong way from the very beginning.

But even so... Qu Fang still has to fulfill the promise of the year.

He will guard her until the last moment.

Luo Junyao also fell silent. She admired Bai Jingrong's ambition and indomitable tenacity, but it's a pity that they were not the same from the beginning.

While speaking, the two had already reached the gate of the palace.

Bai Ning had been waiting at the door early, and when he saw the two people approaching, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

"Your Majesty, please ask Mr. Qu to come over and talk." Bai Ning said respectfully.

He shook to Luo Jun again: "Chuchu, Madam said that you have worked hard, so let you go back to rest first, and give me something."

Luo Junyao handed over the things without hesitation, and said with a smile: "Then there will be Sister Lao Baining."

Bai Ning took the box and said with a smile, "Okay, let's go."

Seeing Luo Jun walking briskly inside, Bai Ning couldn't recover for a while.

This girl's heart is not so big.

She was summoned by the king to speak, and she went back without hesitation. Are you really not afraid that the empress will be suspicious of her?

Qu Fang was still standing on the side, Bai Ning didn't want to think too much.

He turned to Qu Fang and said, "Mr. Qu, please."

Qu Fang glanced at her, nodded, and walked inside first.
