Chapter 42

Qin Yunyao got up early, saw Ji Liangruo still kneeling there in the same posture as yesterday, and ordered Mo Yan to push himself to her side.She was covered in dew, almost drenched.

She didn't move, as if she didn't notice his arrival.Suddenly, a melon seed fell on the ground, she looked over, and he also looked over, and the ground had fallen scattered all over the ground.She raised her head with a haggard look and her arms were trembling: "I've seen... my lord..."

Qin Yunyao looked into her eyes for a while, took a melon seed from her hand, put it in his mouth, chewed it a few times, and said, "It's wet." Melon seeds are placed inside.

She put it in carefully, and wiped off what was on her hands one by one.

"Pick up the ones on the ground." He said again.

Without raising her head, she moved mechanically and picked up the one on the ground.I wanted to put it on the plate, but I thought that the thing that fell on the ground was a bit dirty, so I put it in my hand first.One, two, three... She counted silently in her heart, picking up the ground clean.

He asked, "How many?"

She reflexively reported the number in her heart to him: "27."

He was silent for a moment, and said, "Go back."

"Thank you, my lord." She kowtowed and stood up, her feet were no longer in control, and she fell down as soon as she stood up.After a stagger, he reached out his hand in time to support her.She looked at him with a numb face, said "thank you" again, pushed his hand away, turned and limped away.

Both Mo Yan and Qin Yunyao looked at her back. After a long time, Mo Yan sighed in a low voice: "Hey——"
.
Ji Liangruo returned to Jingyue Courtyard, lay down on the bed, and found that he was still holding those 27 peeled melon seeds tightly in his hand, and burst into tears.

What is the purpose of suffering these grievances?It's really done for the queen mother, but it's not certain whether the queen mother will kill people to silence her.Now, day by day counts...

At this time, she is much more fragile and hopes that he will remember Xia nine years ago, and remember the words he gave her...to pull her away from all this and give her a new choice...

How much I look forward to...

It's been so many years, Fourth Prince, you still meet your sister-in-law in private, but you've already forgotten about that little maid, right?Why, why did you do that!Why did you call me back after I left, give me a piece of jade, and say "I will take you out of the palace, you can go wherever you want"? !
.
Ji Liangruo was physically and mentally exhausted after this night of tossing around. He lay sickly on the bed for several days before his legs healed and he became angry.

No one knew what happened in Bixiao Courtyard that night, no one dared to guess, no one dared to talk about it.It has always been the case that many people talk about it and get the news, but this time, Eunuch Wang is completely different.But seeing that Ji Liangruo had been ill for more than ten days and Qin Yunyao hadn't visited him, he reported the situation to the palace.Therefore, just as Ji Liangruo regained his energy, the Queen Mother came to the palace again, saying that——

She was not able to conceive an heir within half a year, so she was punished with three hundred rods and sent to the frontier.

The eunuch handed the imperial edict to her, and said in front of a dozen maidservants around: "Last time, the empress dowager just issued an oral order, and specially supplemented the edict. This decree has changed, and it is not that the empress dowager is targeting you. The empress dowager only hopes that you will do your best to serve the fourth prince." For the sake of your heirs."

"The concubine understands." She said calmly, with a smile on her lips.This is a war between the Queen Mother and Qin Yunyao, and it is about to come to the fore.

She took Yizhi and stood up, just as Qin Yunyao came in from the outside.When someone came from the palace, he had to show up and do some superficial work no matter what, otherwise it would be disrespectful.

"My father-in-law is here, and I have lost my way to welcome you. Please forgive me." He said.

"The prince killed the old slave." Gong Gong said, "The queen mother wrote the last oral order into an edict and ordered the old slave to send it to the princess. The princess has already accepted the order."

"Oh?" Qin Yunyao glanced at Ji Liangruo, and found that she was a little different than last time, and then found that she was much weaker, "The Queen Mother is worried..."

"Parents have such a heart." The father-in-law laughed.

Qin Yunyao smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes: "Come here, take the father-in-law to have a rest, and let the father-in-law have lunch before leaving."

"I don't dare, I have to go back and report to the Queen Mother!" the father-in-law immediately said.

"You have to have a cup of tea." Qin Yunyao said, "Could it be that the father-in-law looks down on me?"

"How dare, how dare..." the father-in-law said again and again, and changed his words, "How dare this servant refuse to obey the prince's kindness."
