Stop acting, Your Majesty, the queen knows you're faking it

Chapter 135
"Your Majesty is really kind-hearted. She didn't solve her troubles, so she started worrying about us concubines." Lin Jieyu took another pair of chopsticks and served Chi Xinian with vegetables for her.

While she was busy working, she glanced worriedly at the paper and ink that Chi Xinian pushed aside: "Do you have to finish copying the palace rules? Your Majesty, is there any possibility of letting go?"

"Palace rules?" Chi Xinian was enjoying his meal, and had already forgotten about copying the palace rules.

Hearing Lin Jieyu mention it, she reacted belatedly: "Oh...Your Majesty can finish copying, so it must be finished.

"However, today it was because I contradicted His Majesty and made him unhappy, so he punished him. Maybe tomorrow he will feel sour and go to him to beg for mercy, and he will soften his heart."

The rhetoric was discussed with Li Fusheng a long time ago, so it is very natural to talk about it now.

These two simple sentences not only confirmed the fact that he had a dispute with Yan Chujing and was punished by the overbearing emperor, but also inadvertently showed confidence based on the relationship between the two of them.

Covered up the facts, did not lose prestige.

And that relaxed appearance even made Lin Jieyu feel unreal.

——Is the empress so indifferent to punishment?
She probably felt that asking out the doubts in her heart was like questioning the feelings of the empress, so she bit her lips several times but was unable to make a sound.

But the worry in her eyes looked like it was about to overflow.

Chi Xinian glanced at her, and chuckled softly: "What? I'm worried that His Majesty won't accept Ben Gong's plea, and he must be punished until Ben Gong cuts off his hand before he will give up?"

"That's not what I mean by concubine!" Lin Jieyu choked for breath.

Chi Xinian let out a low laugh, and patted her on the shoulder to comfort her: "No. Although I haven't been with His Majesty for a long time, I still know a thing or two about his sharp-tongued and tofu-hearted temperament.

"Although he is ruthless in his mouth, his heart is still gentle. If I break up with him properly, he will definitely not make things difficult for me in the end."

"Your Majesty, are you serious?" Lin Jieyu showed a little joy on her face.

"Of course it is true." Chi Xinian nodded slightly, confidently assuring.

Seeing her like this, Lin Jieyu couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief: "Since the empress is sure of this, I can rest assured. The spring banquet was organized by you. In the end, we, the helpers, won the reward, but you were punished." .

"You and Your Majesty, you have to be good all the time."

"You worry a lot?" Chi Xinian shook his head with a smile, and casually beckoned Lin Jieyu to sit down beside him, "You are young, don't put all the burden on your shoulders.

"The boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge, and everything will be solved. You don't need to worry about it every day."

"...Yes." Chi Xinian's open-minded attitude moved Lin Jieyu for a moment.

But for some reason, she thought of something, and in an instant, the light in her eyes dimmed again.

With a little worry, she lowered her eyes and assured Chi Xinian: "I will always remember my mother's teachings."

She put it here, but if she didn't take it to heart, only she knew it.

Regarding this, Chi Xinian didn't say anything more.

She doesn't understand the gentleness of the youngest daughter's family, so she can't persuade her.Moreover, character is closely related to experience, she has never experienced other people's lives, so naturally she cannot forcibly change the temperament of others.

"Let's eat together." Chi Xinian pushed the dishes towards Lin Jieyu, and decisively ended the previous topic.
