Chapter 384

As soon as Su Qianyun returned to the mansion, she handed over the deeds of prostitution of those maidservants to Ruyue, and ordered: "Be quick and sell it to someone else."

Bai Ruifeng was watching this scene with a smile all the time, without saying a word.

When Ruyue took over the deed of sale, although she was very pleasantly surprised, she still turned her head to look at Bai Ruifeng, and seeing the gentle expression on his face, she nodded and said: "Yes, Young Madam, this servant understands."

Su Qianyun is still a little shy after hearing the words of the young lady, but she insists on not letting herself be stage fright, and she doesn't blame Ruyue.

In the early morning of the next day, the enchanting maidservants bought back by Mrs. Su's painstaking efforts were taken away by Ruyue's matchmaker. Before leaving, she never even saw Bai Ruifeng.

As for Su Xiyun, after Su Qianyun returned from the three dynasties, she adjusted her mood and entered the palace to copy scriptures for the empress.

But outside Kunning Palace, she unexpectedly ran into His Highness the Crown Prince who was coming out of Kunning Palace again.

"Xiyun pays respects to His Highness the Crown Prince." Su Xiyun bowed to the ground as soon as she saw the bright yellow figure.Her drooping head made it difficult to see the expression on her face, but the cold sweat on her palm showed her nervousness.The prince made a big fuss about Su Qianyun's wedding that day. Although Su Qianyun didn't tell her about it, Su Xiyun knew it all through Zhou Can and others.And she unexpectedly ran into His Highness the Crown Prince as soon as she entered the palace gate, how could this not make her nervous?
The person on the other side never spoke.

Su Xiyun knelt there with her head lowered, and she could still feel his probing eyes staring at her for a moment, which made her feel like a thorn in her back.

"Get up." The prince finally said.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Su Xiyun did not dare to slacken in the slightest, she thanked respectfully, then slowly stood up, but still bowed her head.

The prince looked at the beautiful woman with drooping head and neck like a water lily in front of him. He opened his mouth and was about to speak when he heard a leisurely sentence next to his ear: "Brother Huang, you are so leisurely and carefree!"

The prince turned his head abruptly, and saw Qi Ye walking over from not far away with great strides.

The prince's eyes darkened, he turned his head to look at Su Xiyun, then turned his gaze to Qi Ye, and said in a mocking tone: "Third brother, the person in the whole world who wants to tie his fiancée to his belt is none other than you." ah!"

While speaking, Qi Ye had already walked in front of the two of them.

"Brother Huang was joking. The Emperor Father is looking for us to discuss important matters, and I have come here specially to invite you." Qi Ye said without changing his expression.It seemed that he had never heard the words of the crown prince, "I can't wait to tie my fiancée to the waistband of my trousers".

Hearing this, the prince snorted coldly, ignored Su Xiyun, put his back behind him, turned his head and strode away.

Only then did Qi Ye turn his gaze to Su Xiyun: "Are you okay?"

Su Xiyun nodded and said, "We just met, and he didn't ask anything." She was talking about the scene just now.

Qi Ye smiled slightly and said, "I already know what happened on the day your elder sister got married. I'll come here to pick you up after you finish copying the scriptures after you become a mother."

Su Xiyun remembered the prince's gloomy eyes just now, so she didn't say no.

Qi Ye stood there, watching Su Xiyun enter the Kunning Palace with his own eyes, then turned around and chased after the prince in the direction he left.

When Su Xiyun greeted the queen, what happened outside had already reached the queen's ears.

"Get up! How many times have I told you that you don't need to be so polite here." The queen said with a smile.

Su Xiyun still insisted on finishing the ceremony, and then slowly stood up.At this time, she saw that the empress was wearing a very bright palace dress today. Besides being noble, she was also a little more glamorous. When the empress saw her get up, she handed her over and said, "Xiyun, today Don't be in a hurry to copy the scriptures, how about you accompany me to the imperial garden?"

Su Xiyun naturally and respectfully agreed, stepped forward to support the queen's arm, and walked out together slowly.

The Imperial Garden is located behind the Kunning Palace, only a short distance away, which is quite convenient.Along the way, Su Xiyun supported the queen to move forward slowly, resisting the curiosity in her heart and not looking around, because she didn't want to give people a frivolous feeling, especially in front of the queen.

However, the queen seemed to be in a good mood today. She walked slowly and talked to Su Xiyun with a smile: "On the day your sister got married, I specially sent someone to pick up your mother from the mountain. Did grandma say anything?"

After hearing this, Su Xiyun quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, Xiyun hasn't thanked you enough for talking about this matter! Xiyun should be damned!" Before she left, she had already planned in her heart what she would say when she saw the queen. But she just met His Highness the Crown Prince at the gate of Kunning Palace, and she forgot about the interruption.

The queen smiled, stretched out her hand to pull her up and said: "This is just a trivial matter, there is no need to perform such a big gift, I know who you are, I know very well, so naturally I won't blame you."

Su Xiyun was grateful and said: "Thank you for your kindness."

The queen smiled and said, "You haven't told me the question just now?"

Su Xiyun thought for a while before remembering what the queen had just asked. She said without hesitation: "Returning to my mother, my mother came down from the mountain that day, but my grandmother never said anything, and she didn't stop me. Later, when my sister got on the sedan chair, my mother and I watched her off." She went away, and then decided to go back, and grandma didn't keep her."

Simply put, just ignore it.But if the third lady hadn't been accompanied by someone sent by the empress that day, things wouldn't have been so simple.

The queen listened, her expression remained unchanged, she lowered her head and smiled, and talked about something else with Su Xiyun.

"By the way, it's already the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month. I want to hold a moon appreciation banquet in the imperial garden, so you can come too." The queen said with a smile.

Moon feast?Isn't that night?Su Xiyun's heart skipped a beat, but she still forced out a smile and said, "Since your empress invites you, Xiyun will happily attend the banquet."

The queen heard this, looked at Su Xiyun with a smile, and said: "Don't worry, you can just rest in Kunning Palace that day, you don't have to worry about that."

What can Su Xiyun say?It can only be what the queen says and what she should do.

The two walked a few steps forward, passing by a gazebo, the queen turned her head and said, "Xiyun, come in with me and have a seat."

Su Xiyun was about to agree, but suddenly a person appeared from the gazebo. The person was gorgeously dressed and had an arrogant expression. It was the Crown Princess Shi Shi who hadn't seen her for a long time. She was holding an exquisite flower basket full of flowers in her hand.

The queen also saw the crown princess, and when the other party came up to pay her respects, she frowned slightly, and said lightly: "Mr. Shi, are you picking flowers for the queen mother again?"

The Crown Princess couldn't help but tremble when she heard the words, but she still replied respectfully: "Yes, Queen Mother."

"Get up." The Queen's voice was extremely weak.

Upon hearing this, the crown princess hurriedly stood up.

"Xiyun sees the crown princess." Su Xiyun greeted the crown princess respectfully from the side.

The Crown Princess lowered her head, looked at Su Xiyun quietly, and said in a low voice, "Get up." But the moment she raised her head, she saw the queen's stiff face, and her heart skipped a beat.

A month ago, the Crown Princess and the young wife Du Ruoyun of the Marquis of Anguo set up a huge trap for Su Xiyun to sneak into it, but unfortunately, Su Xiyun was as slippery as a loach. The harmed Du Ruoyun changed from a young wife to a concubine.The princess was even placed under house arrest by the queen for three months.

If the Empress Dowager hadn't interceded, how could the Crown Princess be confined in the East Palace at this moment, so how could she visit this pleasant imperial garden?
Not to mention Du Ruoyun, An Guohou's son has already married Taifu Zhang's granddaughter, and I heard that she finally had a second child, and accidentally miscarried.

The two of them have now fallen from the clouds to the bottom of the valley, and the culprit of all this is the indifferent little girl in front of them.

The Crown Princess couldn't help but glanced at Su Xiyun, she couldn't understand why she felt nervous in the bottom of her heart, the other party was just a picture of a little girl who hadn't reached her age yet?
The queen said lightly: "Shi Shi, you should hurry up and send these flowers to the Palace of Compassion and Peace. The flowers will not be fresh later, and the Empress Dowager will blame you."

When the princess heard this, she asked for peace and retreated.

Su Xiyun stood aside and did not make a sound. From the exchange of few words between the queen and the crown princess, she already understood that the crown princess was saved from the two months of confinement by relying on the queen mother's plea. She was free, but It made the empress even more angry with her.

Su Xiyun couldn't help shaking her head, this princess is also not enlightened.The empress dowager is old, how many years can she live?How many years can he be her backer?In the future, the harem will still be ruled by the empress. If she offends the empress, will her life be easier in the future?Really short-sighted.

While Su Xiyun was thinking about it, the queen sighed and said again: "This Shi family is the queen mother's own niece, if it weren't for the fact that she is the daughter of the Shi family, she would not be able to be the princess anyway. What a pain, Zhen'er!"

Su Xiyun, the silent listener, didn't say a word.

The queen stared at the leaving figure of the crown princess until the other party disappeared, then turned her gaze back: "Look at what this palace is saying, Xiyun, you better not take it to heart."

Su Xiyun smiled faintly, and said, "Madam, Xiyun naturally won't take it to heart."

The queen glanced at her, and her expression softened: "Okay, it's getting late, let's go back."

Hearing what she said, Su Xiyun immediately walked over to hold the queen's arm again, and helped her slowly return along the original path.

As soon as the two of them arrived in the palace, before they sat down, someone from the palace came in to report: "Empress Empress, Empress Dowager heard that Miss Su San has entered the palace, and would like to invite her over to see her!"
