Quick Wear: The female supporting role saves the luck of the male supporting role and loses himself

Without even raising his head, Huo Chen said coldly, "The Queen Mother is meddling in other people's business. From now on, the Queen Mother should not interfere in the affairs of these servants."

The smile on Queen Mother Zheng's beautiful face froze for a moment, and she said dignifiedly: "What the Regent said is true. Your Majesty has made great progress in his studies recently. I came here specially to ask for your guidance."

Speaking of the little emperor, Huo Chen raised his head for a rare moment. Looking at the confused and nervous little emperor standing in the hall, Huo Chen was about to speak, but the little emperor burst into tears and hid in the arms of Empress Dowager Zheng.

Lin Yi secretly complained that Huo Chen had scared the little boy. Looking at the little emperor who was crying breathlessly, she wanted to go up and hug him to comfort him.

Hearing the child's crying, Huo Chen's gloomy face darkened a little. He put down the brush in his hand irritably and said impatiently: "Your Majesty should practice courage instead of schoolwork. The Queen Mother has time to do other things. It's better to devote all her energy to Your Majesty."

Queen Dowager Zheng no longer had her previous composure at this time. She said, "The Regent is right!" and left with the little emperor in her arms.

Nanny Gui, who had been following behind Queen Mother Zheng with a smug look on her face, didn't dare to breathe. She had only secretly observed the Regent from a distance before, but after the close contact today, she was frightened and followed Queen Mother Zheng in shame.

The little emperor's cries faded away. Lin Yi shook her head regretfully, and watched the beauty and the little boy reluctantly walk out of the gate of the Palace of Tranquil Longevity.

"Since you can't bear to leave, why don't you follow?" Huo Chen's sinister voice reached Lin Yi's ears.

"I just felt sorry for the child crying." Lin Yi explained hurriedly.

Huo Chen looked at Lin Yi with a half-smile, his voice became even colder and darker: "Child? He is the emperor of the Great Yan Kingdom. How can a slave like you sympathize with the emperor?"

Lin Yi had not yet fully adapted to her identity as an ancient person, and she unconsciously mumbled something. She quickly knelt down and begged for mercy, "Your Highness the Regent, spare me. I have overstepped my bounds."

Looking at the little bean sprout lying on the ground begging for mercy, Huo Chen did not speak, but his eyes were more inquiring. This little bean sprout seemed well-behaved, but in fact, he had no fear of superiority or inferiority in his heart, and never called himself a slave in front of him. He would show his true colors if he was treated with a little kindness, but he would be like a frightened little rabbit if he was frightened, and his attitude of admitting defeat was as humble as possible. It was really an interesting little thing, and it would be nice to play with it every day.

Lin Yi kept lying there without hearing Huo Chen's voice. She did not see Huo Chen's playful expression. What Lin Yi, who was still nervous inside, did not know was that Huo Chen had already started to continue reading the memorials.

It was not until her knees ached that Lin Yi mustered up the courage to secretly observe Huo Chen. She saw Huo Chen's profile as he focused on reviewing memorials. She caught a glimpse of the white fungus and lotus seed soup on the low table, and an idea came to her mind. She asked cautiously, "Your Highness, the white fungus and lotus seed soup sent by the Empress Dowager is getting cold. Can I bring it to you?"

Huo Chen was still wondering what reason this little bean sprout would use to ask to stand up, but he didn't expect that he was so good at finding excuses.

When he felt that the beating was almost enough, he said coldly: "Take it out and pour it out!"

Lin Yi, who was relieved, immediately stood up and walked out swiftly with the tray on the low table.

Walking out of the hall, Lin Yi stared at the soft and delicious Tremella and lotus seed soup and was reluctant to throw it away, so she ran to the corner and slowly tasted it.

After taking a spoonful of Tremella and Lotus Seed Soup, Lin Yi's eyes narrowed with happiness, and she couldn't help but sigh: "The cooking skills of the chefs in this palace are really amazing. It's soft, mellow, sweet but not greasy. It's so delicious!"

Huo Chen hadn't seen Lin Yi come back for a long time, and just as he was about to get up and move around, he walked out of the palace door and looked around, but didn't see Lin Yi. He frowned unhappily. He moved his ears and heard the sound of smacking lips, so he walked over to find the sound. He saw Lin Yi hiding in the corner, eating happily.

"Is it delicious?" Huo Chen asked with a dark face.

"It's delicious. It's so delicious!" Lin Yi answered before realizing something was wrong. She slowly raised her head and saw the Regent staring down at her.

Lin Yi put down the tray in annoyance and once again prostrated on the ground to admit his mistake: "Your Highness, I was just hungry when I was little, and I thought it was a pity to throw away such a good thing. Please spare my life, Your Highness!"

Huo Chen squatted down, looked at Lin Yi who was kowtowing and begging for mercy calmly, and said: "It seems that you have been begging for mercy from me all day long, and then you continue to make mistakes after begging for mercy."

Lin Yi cursed inwardly, you workaholic, instead of reading the memorials properly, you come out to trouble a little servant like me. How dare you!

"Wei Qing, how should we deal with a servant who refuses to change his ways despite repeated admonitions?"

"Your Highness, usually they are beaten to death and thrown into a mass grave!" Wei Qing also discovered his master's bad taste, so he tactfully helped his master to scare Lin Yi.

Lin Yi was dumbfounded and begged for mercy again: "Your Highness, please spare my life! I am still useful to you, please spare my life and continue to serve you, okay?"

"Oh, what use are you to me?" Huo Chen asked with amusement.

"I can grind for you, make tea, serve food, and help you sleep. It's very useful. Please forgive me this time!" Lin Yi counted the work she did that day, trying to reflect the value of her survival. In fact, she hated the ancient times that didn't take human life seriously.

"Aid you to sleep? So you had a purpose when you approached me in the first place?" Huo Chen's voice suddenly became fierce.

Lin Yi really wanted to slap herself to death. Why did she say something she shouldn't have said when she was excited? Feeling the aura around Huo Chen getting colder and colder, Lin Yi tried to make up for it again: "I saw that His Royal Highness the Regent fell asleep twice in front of him, so I thought that I might have this use. I don't have any purpose!"

Huo Chen seemed satisfied with Lin Yi's answer, so he stood up and said, "This reason is barely acceptable. Since we have already eaten, let's skip dinner!"

Lin Yi, who had saved her life, didn't care about dinner! She kept expressing her gratitude: "Thank you, Your Highness the Regent, for not killing me!"

The Regent, who was delighted by teasing the little wild cat once again, put his hands behind his back and walked leisurely towards the imperial garden.

Wei Qing saw Lin Yi still kneeling on the ground, and smiled and reminded: "The prince is going to the imperial garden, why don't you catch up."

When Lin Yi heard this, she quickly got up and followed. It was Lin Yi's first time in the Imperial Garden and she was quite looking forward to it.

Lin Yi was disappointed when she arrived at the Imperial Garden. It was far from the various high-end flower exhibitions in the modern world, and the place was not very big.

Lin Yi didn't know that her disgusted expression had been seen by Huo Chen.

"You just mentioned that you were afraid of hunger when you were a child. Where is your hometown?" Huo Chen asked curiously.
