Quick Wear: The Stunning Beauty is Forbidden to Be Pampered

Qianling Palace.

This was the third time Zhou Changling had been reminded that if he stayed any longer, he would probably miss the morning court.

Looking at Bai Lingxi's pretty and peaceful sleeping face, Zhou Changling sighed and finally got up and left. Li Lin was about to follow him, but was stopped by Zhou Changling: "You stay. If the queen has anything to do, come and report to me."

Zhou Changling was not at ease with anyone else, and only when Li Lin was guarding him personally did Zhou Changling feel a little relieved.

Li Lin responded respectfully, and then watched Zhou Changling's procession go away.

Not long after Zhou Changling left, Li Lin sent people to check on Bai Lingxi's bed four times, for fear that something unexpected might have happened.

At this time, the voice of the guards came from outside the palace, as if they were greeting someone. Li Lin guessed the identity of the person and found that except for Eunuch Li Mu, no one would dare to come to Qianling Palace at this time.

As expected, Li Mu had already brought little Yuanzi here. Because Li Mu was ordered by the late emperor to guard the empress and the little prince, Li Lin still had to give some face to Li Mu, the former general manager.

So Li Lin went out to greet him first: "Hey, what brings you here?"

Li Mu still had a stern face. It was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry. "I came to visit the little prince, and I came to visit Concubine Rong to see if she is in good health."

Li Lin was a little undecided. After all, the emperor now thinks highly of Concubine Rong. Yesterday, the queen had a close call with death. Given the emperor's high regard for the queen, if he let Li Mu in privately, the emperor would probably be furious and punish him in the end.

However, Li Mu's identity allowed him to visit Concubine Rong. He also knew that Li Mu had a group of secret guards who were elusive and might be the backup plan left by the late emperor for the little prince.

Li Lin hesitated: "This??"

Li Mu did not give him the chance to play Tai Chi: "I should have been guarding the little prince and the queen, but considering the chaos in the palace, I wasted some time. It's not too late now, right?"

Li Lin still couldn't make up his mind, but at this moment, the little palace maid came to report with a happy face: "Li Zongguan, the queen has woken up!"

Now, Li Lin had no excuse to refuse Li Mu. After all, as Li Mu said, he was only here to pay his respects to the empress. If he was not even allowed to take a look, who knows what trouble might arise.

So Li Lin had no choice but to agree to their request to see Bai Lingxi: "Since the queen has woken up, Li Cui, go and report it and see if the queen is interested in meeting Lord Li Mu?"

Li Cui was a little girl who was not even fifteen years old. She was not very smart and did not understand Li Lin's intention at all. She excitedly reported it to Bai Lingxi truthfully.

Li Lin sighed inwardly: He is indeed a fool. Never mind. Let the Queen see him. Anyway, I am watching him and nothing serious will happen.

After a while, the little palace maid Li Cui came back and said, "Eunuch, the queen wants to see you."

The moment Zhou Jin saw Bai Lingxi, time and space seemed to stand still. A glance lasted for a thousand years, and his heart was in turmoil.

Bai Lingxi's face was as pale as snow, with her ink-black hair loose, making her palm-sized face even more delicate. She looked as delicate as a willow in the wind, and she was so graceful that people wanted to hold her in their arms and love her dearly.

Li Lin was specially left behind by Zhou Changling. Seeing that the usually polite little Yuanzi was staring at the empress without blinking, he thought it was too inappropriate.

Although Li Lin would give Li Mu some face, if Zhou Changling knew about this situation, he would probably skin him alive, so he warned him: "Ahem, ahem!"

Perhaps it was because he hadn't seen Bai Lingxi for too long, Zhou Jin actually noticed the moisture in his eyes, but he still couldn't bear to look away. He really missed her very much.

Seeing Zhou Jin was reluctant to greet Bai Lingxi, Li Mu was the first to react. He quickly pulled Zhou Jin back and apologized to Bai Lingxi: "Your Majesty, Xiao Yuanzi has received your kindness before, but now it has been too long since I last saw you. I was rude for a moment, please forgive me."

Zhou Jin came back to his senses and knelt down with Li Mu. He did not feel humiliated. It was just that he had been the emperor for decades and had not kowtowed for a long time, so it was inevitable that he felt a little uncomfortable.

Bai Lingxi didn't know why, but she was not in a good mood before, but after seeing Xiao Yuanzi, she felt a little more at ease, and even her spirit became much better.

Bai Lingxi nodded good-temperedly, indicating that she understood, and tried to pretend to be serious in her sweet voice: "It's okay, you don't have to kneel, stand up."

Zhou Jin knew that he shouldn't show such an obsessed look at the moment, but his eyes couldn't leave her and he kept staring at her without blinking.

Bai Lingxi was being stared at with such a burning gaze, and logically she should have felt a little offended and angry, but for some reason, Bai Lingxi actually read a hint of sadness from it.

Thinking about what Li Mu said, Bai Lingxi asked curiously: "You just said that I once gave you a favor?"

Bai Lingxi's eyes were as clear as water, and when she looked at Zhou Jin, she was smart and natural, as if she said nothing, but it seemed like she said everything.

Zhou Jin clenched his fists slightly, and after a shock in his heart, he was overwhelmed by an overwhelming feeling of powerlessness. The only thought left in his mind was: It turns out that she really forgot everything!
