As soon as she opened her eyes, she was forcibly carried back to the East Palace by the paranoid pri

Her hands were shaking so much that Huiqing immediately stuffed the letter back into her pocket.

She didn't dare to read the words the head of the family left for the queen, nor could she bear to have one more secret!

Hui Qing staggered to her feet, took out a tinderbox from the basket, opened it and blew hard. Tears welled up in her eyes and dripped onto the ground. Normally, she was a very calm person.

A spark ignited, she lit the purse and watched it turn into smoke.

She knelt on the ground, covered her mouth and cried silently, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I'm so sorry!"

Her throat was choked with pain, and she held it in for dear life, not daring to make any sound, until she collapsed to the ground.

Master, please forgive me. The Queen has finally accepted His Majesty peacefully. We cannot, we cannot cause any more trouble!

The Queen Mother seems to have gone with the flow and been unable to fight back over the years, but in fact, there is a terrifying cruelty in her heart, especially to herself, otherwise the Queen Mother would not have used the torturous fake death drug.

No! The Queen cannot know all this. Hui Qing forced herself to stand up, then bowed to the ground, her whole body in pain. She clasped her hands together and murmured, "Master, you love the Queen more than yourself, and you must not want to see her fall into endless pain again."

After a few moments, Huiqing finally stopped crying. She knew that anyone with a discerning eye would know there was something wrong with her appearance, so she had to think of a way to cover it up.

There was a sound of something heavy falling to the ground from Huiqing's ear room, and Xiaobi from the next ear room hurried over to check.

She was designated by the Empress to leave the palace in two months and no longer needed to do any servant work. Now she was busy embroidering some clothes for herself to wear outside the palace.

"oops!"

Xiaobi was shocked by the scene in front of her. She saw Huiqing lying on the ground, a pair of scissors fell to the ground, and her legs were bleeding.

Stepping over the blood-stained scissors, Xiaobi hurriedly helped Huiqing up, "What happened?!"

Hui Qing shook her head in pain and used Xiao Bi's strength to sit on the chair. "I wanted to get something, but the scissors I put on the cabinet fell down."

Xiaobi lifted the dress from her legs, and seeing that the injury was not serious, she let out a long sigh and half-knelt on the ground, "I'll go find a female doctor for you later."

Looking up and seeing Huiqing crying like this, Xiaobi was a little surprised, "So you can be so panicked sometimes, I've never seen you cry before!"

Hui Qing forced a smile and said, "I was panicking. My legs were hurting so badly that I thought my legs were going to be broken."

Xiaobi stood up and comforted her, "No, it's not a serious injury."

…………

The stars and the frost fly by, the time passes quickly, and it is July now. The sky is ablaze and the chirping of cicadas falls into the scorching heat.

The warm room is not suitable for the midsummer season, so He Yue usually places it in the west room of the main hall. A four-legged bronze ice jar is placed near the door, and two palace maids are fanning to let the cold wind blow inside. The empress is eight months pregnant and cannot be taken lightly, so the ice jar must not be placed inside.

Huiqing was holding a lacquer tray with gold ingots piled on it, each gold ingot weighing ten taels. The palace servants were all particularly relaxed on this day, because today was the Queen's birthday!

On the birthday of the master in the palace, people would "gather blessings" and distribute gold and silver to the servants in the palace.

"May your Majesty have a happy birthday and all the best!"

"I wish you a happy birthday, Madam, and may it last forever!"

The palace maids spoke congratulatory words to the queen sitting on the chair one by one, and then went to Huiqing to receive a gold ingot.

When it was Xiaobi's turn, she walked in front of He Yue, knelt straight down, her eyes red, and choked up several times, "I wish your Majesty a happy and smooth life every year!"

Her congratulations were the simplest, but also the most sincere. He Yue waved to her, her face soft and her eyes slightly reluctant, "Xiao Bi, you will leave the palace tomorrow."

Xiaobi crawled over on her knees, looked up and looked deeply at He Yue.

The Queen was wearing a brocade skirt with hibiscus and gold patterns. Her belly was noticeable, but her face did not look haggard. Her hair was shiny and her face was still as charming as when Xiaobi first saw her.

Xiao Bi understood that this might be her last sight of the Queen, and tears rolled down her cheeks, "Queen..."

He Yue gently wiped Xiaobi's face with a handkerchief, took the booklet handed to her by Huiqing, and placed it in Xiaobi's hand, "The items in here are all left for you to keep. When you leave the palace tomorrow, go to my private storehouse and take them away."

He Yue took down a golden hairpin from her hair bun, which was not too much for Xiaobi, and pinned it on her hair herself. She sighed in a gentle voice, "Xiaobi is already a grown-up girl. You should be braver and more cautious."

"Outside the palace, I asked Xiaoye to buy you a house. A girl needs to have something in her own hands to feel at ease." He Yue patted Xiaobi, who was already crying, "Why are you crying? You will have a good life in the future."

Xiaobi was choking with sobs and couldn't speak. She could only take a few steps back, bow deeply, and knock her head on the ground with a loud noise!

Your Majesty, I am a useless person. I only know how to cause trouble for you all day long. You are also worried about my future life. I am so lucky to meet such a good master like you!
