Chapter 40 Don’t cry haha

Seeing that the emperor's expression softened a little, Jinse hesitated and said hesitantly: "One more thing is that I didn't tell the truth when the emperor asked me yesterday. Please forgive me!".

Not telling the truth?Please forgive me?
The emperor thought about it for a moment and then understood what Jinse was talking about.

He couldn't help but laugh and said: "Now you are thinking of coming to apologize. Then when I asked you yesterday, why didn't you know to tell the truth?"

Jinse was silent when he asked this question.

After a long while, Jinse said in a low voice with an uneasy look on her face: "This slave is just a minor injury, it doesn't bother me. Moreover, I failed to be more meticulous yesterday when I was doing errands. That's why the imperial concubine was angry...".

After saying that, Jinse paused and continued: "Besides, the imperial concubine was also there at that time. How can I complain?"

So, she didn't mean to hide it from the emperor on purpose!
This was the point she wanted to make.

But in this case, Jinse couldn't express it directly, so the emperor could only ask why. Could she just say it in such a subtle way?

I hope the emperor can understand.

How could she, a palace maid serving tea, quarrel with a noble concubine?

The emperor was not surprised by the first two sentences, but was stunned by the last sentence.

After being stunned, I couldn't help but laugh.

He looked at Jinse, shook his head, and said with a smile: "You dare to say anything? Aren't you afraid that I will be angry?".

Jinse smiled and said with a serious face: "But that's what I really thought about that moment yesterday!".

The emperor nodded and responded: "You are still a little clever. You didn't tell the truth in front of the imperial concubine yesterday."

The emperor naturally knew that in front of him, even if Jinse told the truth yesterday, Concubine Jiang would not dare to do anything to Jinse, and would probably make an apology or something to fool her.

But in the future, what Concubine Jiang will do to Jin Se secretly depends on Concubine Jiang's methods.

The emperor naturally did not want to see such a thing.

Jinse thought that the emperor was praising him, and immediately pursed his lips and smiled, looking so cute.

Eunuch Yang stood aside, watching this scene. Although he was filled with emotion, he couldn't help but put a smile on his face.

He always felt that after having this Jinse, the emperor's eyes had much more smiles from the heart.

I didn't expect that this little girl Jinse has some abilities.

Although Concubine Jiang was making trouble, Jinse didn't feel anything bad. The burn on the back of her hand was just a little painful.

But after taking the medicine, it was fine.

After checking in, Jinse came out of the big kitchen carrying dinner, sighing as he walked.

I don't know if what happened to her today is an unreasonable disaster.

"what happened to your hand?"

The twelfth prince came from afar at some point and stood in front of Jinse. He stared at the burned back of Jinse's hand with an incomprehensible expression.

Jinse was distracted and almost missed hitting him.

When he looked up and saw the Twelfth Prince, he immediately laughed: "Your Highness, why are you here now?"

"Come out and play!"

The Twelve Prince glanced at her, pursed his lips again and asked, "You haven't said anything yet, what happened to your hand?".

Jinse cheered and said casually: "I just accidentally burned it!".

The twelfth prince looked a little unhappy. He looked at Jinse intently and asked, "Really?".

Jinse nodded, couldn't help but raise his hand to rub the top of the twelfth prince's head, and said with a smile: "No, it's just a small injury. Don't be afraid, your twelfth prince, don't cry!".All the emotions in his heart were wiped out by Jin Se's words.

The twelfth prince felt choked in his heart, but there was a pitiful expression on his face: "Are you really okay? Doesn't it hurt?".

Seeing him like this, Jinse's heart softened, and she thought for a moment and nodded: "Are you burned? It still hurts a little, but after applying the plaster, it doesn't hurt much."

Seeing her nonchalant look, the twelfth prince puffed out his cheeks angrily: "You are so ungrateful, you should bear the pain...".

After saying these words, the Twelve Prince turned around and left.

After taking two steps, he remembered something again, turned around and stuffed two red fruits into Jinse's hands, and then ran away.

Jinse was stunned for a moment before coming back to his senses. Looking at the two juicy fruits in his hand, he suddenly smiled.

It's rare to find such juicy fruit in the middle of winter.

Jinse took one and wiped it on her sleeve casually, then put it in her mouth and took a bite. It was so sweet that she felt that the burnt area on the back of her hand did not hurt so much.

Due to the incident at Linyunguan, the atmosphere in Dizhao Palace was slightly tense these past two days.

Even on the eve of Laba, there was still not much change.

The battle at Linyunguan is tense.

Everyone in the court was busy mobilizing troops to approach Yunguan.

In the palace, preparations for the Laba Banquet are already underway.

The Imperial Tea House is quite leisurely, but the atmosphere is not as relaxed as usual, and even the talkative Cha Qing is no longer so gossipy.

This tense atmosphere made Jinse feel a little uneasy.

It's like feeling it in a dream!
However, Jinse couldn't say anything more. She felt secretly uneasy and didn't know what she was nervous about.

On the first day of the Laba Banquet, He Yang went to the Imperial Study Room and reported the latest progress of the investigation into the Imperial Garden.

When Jin Se went in, he happened to hear He Yang saying: "Although some poisons are occasionally admitted to the Tai Hospital, they are basically dead. I have inquired carefully and compared the records of the Tai Hospital. The poisonous snake didn’t come in from the Imperial Hospital!”

As soon as Jinse heard the word "venomous snake", he knew what He Yang was talking about.

There was a sudden feeling in her heart. It was obvious that she was still a little worried about what happened that day. She stood there holding the tea for a long time and forgot what she was going to do.

Eunuch Yang coughed lightly at the side.

Jinse subconsciously turned her head to look at Eunuch Yang.

Seeing his calm expression, my heart suddenly tightened, and I came back to my senses with a jolt.

Jinse felt a little embarrassed and hurriedly lowered her head and apologized to the emperor: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I was distracted."

The emperor didn't seem to blame her, and waved his hand and told her to get up.

Jinse hurriedly served the tea cup, then bowed and left.

In the imperial study room, He Yang glanced at Jinse with a very vague look.

The emperor didn't notice this, and still asked He Yang: "Have you found any abnormalities anywhere in the palace gate?".

He Yang cupped his hands and said: "I have looked through the entry and exit records of various city gates in the past month and found nothing unusual."

This is also where He Yang is very confused.

There has been nothing wrong for the past month, so how did the poisonous snake get into the palace?
The emperor frowned and thought for a long time without knowing what he was thinking.

He Yang, on the other hand, glanced at the emperor hesitantly and said with an unclear expression: "There is one more thing, I don't know whether to say it or not...".
