My Fair Princess: The Queen's Rebirth

Little Swallow looked at the two revolving lanterns in front of her with curiosity.

To be honest, she also thought these two carousels were very ordinary.

Nothing special about it.

"Ziwei, Xia Yingying said this is called a zouma lantern," Xiaoyanzi said. "But I, like Jinsuo, think it's just an ordinary lantern. Why is it called a zouma lantern?"

The voice just fell.

At this moment, Xiao Jian asked the small table to bring two candles, lit them, and carefully placed them into the revolving lantern.

"Little Swallow, this will start to rotate by itself in a while." Xiao Jian picked up the two carousel lanterns and hung them on the shelf at the entrance.

The little swallow stood patiently in front and observed carefully.

Soon.

The cover outside the revolving lantern began to rotate slowly.

"Ziwei, Seya, Jinsuo, look!" Xiaoyanzi said in surprise, "It really spins on its own. It's amazing. And there are lots of little people painted on the cover outside."

Ziwei, Seya and Jinsuo all came over.

Four people gathered around the revolving lantern and watched it attentively.

"Xiaoyanzi, look, isn't this you and Ertai?"

Seya pointed to one of the pictures. It showed two little people standing at the bow of a boat, one of them kissing the other.

Xiaoyanzi leaned over to take a look and discovered that the painting was indeed of herself and Ertai. And wasn't this the scene where Ertai deliberately angered her on the day he returned from the Southern Tour?!

"It really is Ertai and me." Xiaoyanzi said with a blush, "I didn't expect she would actually draw it."

……

night.

At the Queen's strong invitation, Xia Yingying agreed to stay in Kunning Palace for dinner before returning to Gyeongbokgung Palace.

In fact, she knew that the emperor had been staying with the queen these days.

So she had another purpose for coming here this time.

"Since you're willing to stay here for dinner, then you don't have to be a guest." The Queen glanced at the seats nearby, then took Xia Yingying's hand and pulled her to the side of the table, saying, "Hurry up and sit down to eat with us, otherwise the Emperor will blame me."

When Xia Yingying heard what the Queen said, she was so frightened that she quickly took a few steps back.

She said tremblingly, "Empress, I dare not."

"Why should we be afraid? Since we have entered the palace, we are sisters. From now on, you can call me sister. Don't call me Empress all the time. It sounds strange." The Queen smiled and then looked at the Emperor and continued, "Your Majesty, don't you agree?"

Seeing the Queen's generosity, the Emperor's face instantly lit up with a smile: "Yingying, please sit down quickly. And since the Queen has said so, do you still want to be so reserved?"

Xia Yingying shook her head and explained, "Just let me stand aside and serve the emperor and sister. I am just..."

Xia Yingying had just said half of her words when the emperor's face suddenly darkened before she could finish.

He sighed heavily, and suddenly put down the hand that was holding the spoon and about to scoop the soup.

Seeing the emperor's bad expression, the queen quickly stood up from her seat and bowed to him, "Your Majesty, please calm down."

Seeing this, Xia Yingying quickly squatted down, lowered her head in fear and dared not look directly into the emperor's eyes.

"Since we've entered the palace, we're a family. How can we eat standing up?" The emperor said with a hint of displeasure. "Besides, the maids and eunuchs around you will naturally take care of the meal. You must remember that you are the master now, not just a solitary woman on the boat."

When Xia Yingying heard the last four words.

She was completely shocked.

A flash of displeasure crossed his face.

But it happened to be seen by Rong Mama who was standing nearby.

Humph, a woman of dust is still a woman of dust after all.

The emperor seemed to realize at this moment that what he said was inappropriate. He raised his head, looked at Xia Yingying, and nodded slightly at her.

Xia Yingying walked up to the emperor obediently, but still kept her head down.

"Okay, everyone, sit down and have your meal."

After dinner, the emperor and the empress sat together on the couch.

Xia Yingying sat on a round stool next to her.

"Empress, tomorrow is Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei's engagement day." The Emperor reached out and shook the Empress's hand tightly. "You've been busy with various things these past few days and you certainly haven't had a good rest. Go to bed early tonight."

Xia Yingying looked at the emperor and the queen who were in love with each other, and she felt very unhappy about what the emperor had said about her in front of the queen. Besides being unhappy, she was also jealous.

But think about it the other way around, it's all because of our poor background.

"Your Majesty, I just asked Rong Ma to stew a dessert." The Queen said, "Should I ask them to serve it now?"

The emperor looked at the queen with a beaming smile, "Serve it now while Yingying is here." The emperor said as he looked at Xia Yingying, "Yingying, you are in for a treat today. The desserts in the queen's palace are among the best."

"Your Majesty, I will not disturb you and my sister's private conversation. I was sitting beside you and watching you with envy. I will come back for this dessert another day."

Xia Yingying stood up and bowed her head.

The Queen immediately understood what Xia Yingying meant after hearing her words, so she looked at her half-jokingly, "Sister, are you jealous? Why does it sound weird to me?" Then the Queen turned to look at the Emperor and teased, "Your Majesty, this is all your fault."

The emperor was stunned for a moment, "Why is the queen blaming me for this?"

"It's all your fault that you insisted on holding my hand and talking to me, making my sister jealous." The queen nodded and smiled.

"Sister, I didn't mean that." Xia Yingying paused and continued, "The Emperor and you have such a good relationship. I'm actually envious of you, but being able to be appreciated by the Emperor is the greatest blessing in my life."

While talking.

Aunt Rong had already walked in with people carrying desserts.

Xia Yingying tactfully walked forward and personally served the desserts to the emperor and the queen.

Looking at the two of them feeding each other, she really wanted to go up and feed them.

I had a really choking dinner today.

Xia Yingying couldn't help but roll her eyes at the two of them in her heart.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late. It's time for me to go back." Xia Yingying smiled, bowed her head, and then walked out.

At the moment of leaving, she seemed to vaguely hear the conversation between the Queen and the Emperor, saying that it was a pity that she left without having any dessert.

Xia Yingying thought that it would be better not to drink this dessert.

If you drink it, you will definitely choke to death.
