Empress Abandoned in the Cold Palace: Queen Juan, she doesn't talk about martial arts

Chapter 24
Mr. Xi was already so tired that his hands and feet were numb and he made a mistake, so he didn't dare to think about sleeping at all.

Hearing that Xiao Shengyun was willing to let him go back, he didn't dare to delay at all, and turned around and walked out after agreeing.

On the way back to his bedroom.

Lady Xi was sitting on the sedan chair, and she couldn't help sighing because she was sore all over, and then said to the palace maid who was following her.

"Tweety, when you go back later, give Bengong a good squeeze on your shoulders, it's really exhausting."

Tweety quickly agreed, but looked at Mrs. Xi with a little helplessness in her eyes.

"It's all the empress's fault. Her sudden appearance disrupted your plan, otherwise you wouldn't have ended up like this."

Hearing Tweety's indignant words, Noble Xi paused for a moment.

She couldn't help thinking about it, and suddenly realized that it was indeed after Su Lijin came that the emperor asked herself to grind ink for her.

Before, everything was fine.

Thinking about it this way, it really has something to do with Su Lijin.

"Let's go, let's go to Yikun Palace!" She said suddenly.

Thinking about it carefully, the only one who can compete with Su Lijin's identity is Concubine Shu of Yikun Palace.

Now that Su Lijin has taken the lead in attacking him, he must find a good team.

It's getting late.

On Su Lijin's side, although her feet are grounded, her life is still colorful.

Since the trouble in the kitchen last time, Xiao Shengyong has resumed his original diet.

At this time, she was sitting in the yard eating grapes leisurely.

The cold wind hit, but it made her shiver uncontrollably, and then she remembered that it was time to go back to the house.

After closing the bedroom door, Su Lijin wanted to take a rest after washing up, but she didn't want to hear movement from the window of the bedroom.

At this time, someone came.

There was an invisible coldness in her eyes, Su Lijin didn't move, but she could guess it even if she didn't look back.

Someone who can do this kind of thing like flipping through a window in the middle of the night.

Apart from Xiao Zhaolin, I am afraid there is no one else.

Sure enough, the next moment, that familiar voice appeared in his ears.

"Jin'er, I'm here to find you."

Faintly covering up the look of disgust on his face, Su Lijin pursed his lips and turned around, then set his eyes on the person in front of him.

But he backed away unconsciously, distanced himself from it.

He pretended to be pleasantly surprised: "Why did His Highness come here in person suddenly? Didn't anyone find out?"

"It's okay, I came here this time mainly because I feel that there is something that must be handed over to you by hand, so I can rest assured. Besides, I may not have seen you for a long time after the last time. I want to see how you are doing, although I was grounded, so don't suffer any grievances."

When Xiao Zhaolin spoke, his brows and eyes were full of concern and distress.

Don't be wronged?

My biggest grievance now is being grounded!

If you have the ability, let Xiao Shengyun untie my restraint, otherwise stop talking nonsense!

On the surface, he was calm, but in Su Lijin's heart, he had already complained about Xiao Zhaolin thousands of times.

"This is an invitation card. There will be an auction in a few days. When you come out secretly, I will take you there."

Looking at the invitation card in front of her, Su Lijin's eyes flashed a gloomy look.

Accepting the invitation silently, she was just about to speak to give the order to evict the guests, when she heard the man beside her chattering.

"Has Xiao Shengyun visited you recently? Have you been bullied by him?"

Although on the surface Xiao Zhaolin said words of concern, in fact he was secretly probing for news about Xiao Shengyun.

This point, Su Lijin knew it by heart.But she still pretended to be sincere, and said seriously
"Your Highness, it's all useless to me. Now I'm confined in this Kunning Palace. I don't know anything. I can't even figure out what the emperor is doing recently. I haven't been out for several days."

Only then did Xiao Zhaolin react.

Trapped in the Kunning Palace, it is normal to have no news from the outside world.

Thinking of this, he said reassuringly: "It's okay, I will find a way to help you as soon as possible, but it's getting late now, so I'll go first, you take care of yourself."

After exhorting these last few words, Xiao Zhaolin left from the window.

After the man left, Su Lijin casually threw the invitation on the table beside him.

The coldness returned to his face instantly.

She still clearly remembered that at this auction, Xiao Zhaolin almost sold herself.

This man's superficial skills are so hard to see his flaws that it was only in his last life that he believed in him unconditionally for so long.

But now, the invitation appeared again.

He personally sent the invitation to himself, which showed the importance of this auction.

So, what exactly does Xiao Zhaolin want to do?
With thousands of thoughts, Su Lijin rubbed the space between her brows a little irritably.

It was annoying enough indeed.

However, there is still some time left for the auction, so it is not too urgent. Now there is a more important thing that is coming soon.

Queen Mother's birthday

According to previous years, the Ministry of Etiquette was responsible for this matter. As the Empress of the Central Palace, I only needed to make some suggestions and inspection results.

Thinking of this, Su Lijin arranged for a servant to ask how the matter was going.

The next day, Su Lijin got up, and there was a message from the servant. Su Lijin asked people to prepare the Queen Mother's birthday banquet according to the old practice.

But I didn't want to, the people around the Queen Mother came at this time.

"Empress Empress, Empress Dowager is here to invite you."

Cining Palace.

Su Lijin came to the Empress Dowager, bowed and saluted: "See the Empress Dowager."

"Well, the queen is here? Sit down." The queen mother said lightly.

Su Lijin agreed, and before she could speak after sitting down, she heard the Queen Mother's next words.

"It's almost time for Ai's family's birthday banquet, how does the queen plan to prepare?"

"Concubine, the Queen Mother's birthday banquet is naturally not to be sloppy. I think it was carefully arranged by the Ministry of Rites before coming here, and nothing went wrong. It's better to prepare as usual." Su Lijin answered bravely.
But if something goes wrong, there must be a demon. Since the queen mother asked this question, she must have already had an idea.

Sure enough, after hearing what Su Lijin said, the Empress Dowager's expression was not so good.

"It's like this every year. It's really boring. Ai's family looks tired. How can I have the energy to go to the birthday banquet?"

"What does the Empress Dowager mean?" Su Lijin asked tentatively.

"Aijia thinks that the queen is a smart person, so she can naturally come up with some novel ideas to relieve Aijia's boredom."

Novel idea?
Although Su Lijin looked calm on the surface, she couldn't help complaining in her heart.

So, is this going to make a problem for yourself?

Why didn't the queen mother realize that she still held some grudges in her previous life, but she just called Xiao Shengxue's name in front of her last time, why did she start to embarrass others?
