Chapter 50: No respect and inferiority
  It has to be said that news spreads very quickly in the mansion. Not long after Xiao Qingqing returned to her room, Nanny Li received the news that the old concubine had not seen the prince and princess.

"The old concubine has always been the most disciplined person. She is a concubine and has no rules. Naturally, the old concubine does not want to see her. The old concubine cares most about the prince. How could she not see the prince? How could she not see the prince? It's not because that princess is around." Nanny Li snorted coldly, her face full of disdain for Xiao Qingqing.

However, this also gave her a chance.

He rolled his eyes, stood up and walked out the door with a smile.

At the door of the old concubine, Nanny Li glanced at the refreshments in her hand, and did not forget to tidy up her clothes. When she saw Nanny Lin standing at the door, she smiled and said, "Sister, I'm here. The person who took care of the old dowager brought tea for the old dowager, and I hope my sister can pass on the news."

Nanny Lin looked up and down and motioned for her to wait here while she went in to ask for instructions.

After a while, Nanny Lin came out and let Nanny Li in.

Grandma Li was overjoyed and hurriedly followed her. When she saw the old concubine, she quickly saluted: "I have seen the old concubine. I am here to take care of the old concubine."

As he said that, he put the tea snacks in his hand on the table beside him, took them out, and said with a smile: "The old slave heard that the old concubine does not eat sweets, so he specially brought these sugar-free snacks, so the old concubine can try them."

The old concubine put down the book in her hand, raised her head and glanced at Grandma Li. Seeing that she did not refuse the pastries handed to her, she took a bite and nodded slightly.

"good."

Aunt Li's smile became even stronger, she was busy working nearby and handed her a cup of tea.

"The old concubine has been wronged. Although there is a mistress in this mansion, the princess knew that the old concubine was here, and she went back to sleep without greeting her or serving her. She really shouldn't have." He observed the old concubine's expression with his eyes.

The old concubine frowned slightly.

The old concubine must be dissatisfied with Xiao Qingqing's style. Seeing this, Grandma Li felt confident and continued to say next to her: "The old concubine doesn't know something. Although the princess is said to be the mistress of the house, in fact she is not at all. Regardless of the internal affairs, the old lady, Lao Nu, has always been in charge of the palace. Moreover, the princess is very jealous and does not allow any woman to get close to the prince. She does not consider the palace at all.

"Is this true?" The old concubine put down the teacup in her hand and looked at Nanny Li, as if seeking confirmation.

Nanny Li nodded immediately: "Of course it is true. Everyone in the palace knows that the royal concubine in the palace rewarded the prince with three beauties some time ago, but because of the princess' jealousy, she sent them back."

"Do you know what the crime of falsely accusing the master is?" The old lady stared at her and asked majestically.

Mother Li was so frightened that she knelt down and nodded repeatedly: "Old concubine, what I said is the truth, there is absolutely no lie."

Seeing that she was so sure, the old concubine withdrew her gaze and waved her hand: "Okay, I understand this matter, please step aside."

Although Grandma Li didn't understand why the old concubine didn't summon Xiao Qingqing to interrogate her, she still bowed and left.

Now it can be regarded as planting a thorn in the heart of the old concubine. I believe that the old concubine will soon be dissatisfied with Xiao Qingqing, with a proud look on her face.

After Nanny Li left, the old concubine asked Nanny Lin to take away the tea, picked up the book on the side, and said calmly: "What do you think of this matter?"

Nanny Lin glanced at Nanny Li's relief, sighed and shook her head: "Even if the princess has something wrong with her, as a servant, Nanny Li speaks ill of her master behind his back, and has no dignity. It's obviously because of the prince's body. The reason is that the servants in the palace are so arrogant and rude because they have been neglecting the palace for many years and have forgotten their identity."

The old concubine nodded, approving what Nanny Lin said. She looked at the servants walking back and forth at the door. She was also curious whether a person like Xiao Qingqing could control these servants and manage the palace well.

Feng Molin on the other side was listening to Butler Chen's report on matters in the mansion, when Feng Yi hurried over and waved to Butler Chen.

Butler Chen understood, bowed and stepped back.

"What's the matter?" Feng Molin's voice was calm. "Your Majesty, the assassin caught earlier revealed a location because he couldn't bear it any longer." When Feng Yi said this, he lowered his voice and said, "Long'anpo."

At this time, he actually admired Xiao Qingqing. They had always been unable to deal with the assassin. Unexpectedly, Xiao Qingqing gave an idea and the result was soon achieved.

The method of boiling the eagle is really good. It doesn't give people a chance to rest and sleep at all. As soon as they fall asleep, they will be woken up and no one can survive it.

Feng Molin turned the wheelchair and headed towards the door, saying coldly: "Let's go."

Feng Yi did not move. He hesitated for a moment before speaking: "My lord, I'm afraid your body is... why don't we take the princess with us?"

He recognized Xiao Qingqing's medical skills. This trip to Long'anpo would inevitably lead to a fierce battle, but he could rest assured if Xiao Qingqing was by his side to take care of him.

Feng Molin frowned slightly, turned his head slightly, and said in a cold voice: "No need."

"Why, don't you listen to what I say now?"

Facing the voice of doubt, Feng Yi immediately followed.

Xiao Qingqing opened the door after resting for a while. She was in a good mood and stretched out, thinking that Feng Molin had not checked his physical condition today.

When I stepped into his room, I looked around but didn't see him.

"Is it in the study?" Xiao Qingqing was confused and went to the study.

However, after looking around the house, he didn't see Feng Molin, not even Feng Yi beside him.

"Weird, we just came back, where did the two of them go?" Xiao Qingqing was helpless. This man just came back and ran out again, but that was Feng Molin's own business and had nothing to do with her.

Just when Xiao Qingqing was about to go back to her room, she saw someone from the kitchen running over.

"Princess." The visitor saluted respectfully.

"What's the matter?" Xiao Qingqing asked.

"Princess, now that the old concubine has entered the palace, I wonder what should be prepared for tonight's dinner?"

Xiao Qingqing immediately understood that she had almost forgotten about the old concubine.

The old concubine is not in the palace all the year round. It is normal for people in the palace not to know what to do. In addition, Feng Molin is not in the palace now. After thinking for a while, he said: "Let's just eat light dishes tonight."

"This... princess, the old concubine is also the person that the prince values ​​the most, but wouldn't it be bad to be a plain one?" The servant hesitated and confirmed again and again.

Xiao Qingqing waved her hand: "Okay, just do as I say."

Seeing that Xiao Qingqing insisted on doing this, the servants had no choice but to do as they were told.

As soon as the sky dimmed, the maid from the mansion hurried over: "Princess, the old concubine invites you to have a meal with the prince."

Xiao Qingqing, who was still playing with the herbs, did not raise her head, but responded. She did not stop the movements in her hands and quickly finished. Then she got up, tidied herself up and headed to the dining room.
