My Fair Princess: The Queen's Rebirth

Chapter 15 Xiao Jian explores the Forbidden City at night

"Yes, studying is really not an easy thing. It requires a certain amount of patience and perseverance." Xiaoyanzi smiled and said no more.

Seeing that she was still depressed, Madam Rong continued to comfort her, "Besides, I think you are no worse than others. You have many advantages that others don't have, such as being chivalrous and helpful. The most important thing is that you know how to be grateful."

When Xiaoyanzi heard Rong Mama say this, her eyes lit up instantly. She took Rong Mama's arm and said excitedly, "Really?"

"Of course, would Aunt Rong really lie to you?"

As Rong Mama spoke, she took Xiaoyanzi into her arms.

Xiaoyanzi snuggled obediently in Rong Mama's arms, muttering softly, "But I really admire Ziwei and the others for being able to speak in four-character sentences. Even Jinsuo can occasionally blurt out a sentence of four-character sentences. I'm the only one standing there looking at them stupidly."

"Silly child, you learned these things through osmosis. Look at me, a rough guy, but after being with the Empress for a long time, I can also say a few four-character idioms from time to time, right?" Rong Mama looked at Xiaoyanzi with a smile.

Xiaoyanzi pouted and said no more.

After dinner in the evening, Ziwei and Jinsuo, led by a young eunuch, came all the way from the Yanx Palace to the Kunning Palace.

"Princess Mingzhu, this is Kunning Palace."

The young eunuch said with his head bowed respectfully.

"Thank you for taking us on this trip."

"You are too polite, Princess. This is what I should do. If you have nothing else to ask me to do, then I will take my leave."

"I'm fine, you can go back."

After the young eunuch turned around and left, Ziwei took the golden lock and walked directly into Kunning Palace. However, she had only taken a few steps when she was suddenly blocked by someone.

"Who are you? You came to Kunning Palace but didn't even send someone in to inform them first?" The person who spoke was Ning'er, the maid on duty in Kunning Palace today.

Seeing this person shouting at his young lady, Jinsuo immediately stepped forward and shouted angrily, "Who are you? Do you know who is standing in front of you?"

Ning'er hadn't seen them both since she entered the palace.

Of course, I don't want to know who they are.

Anyway, there is probably no one else in the entire imperial palace who is so disrespectful as them to break into Kunning Palace without permission.

Seeing that the person in front of her was silent, Jinsuo quickly added, "This is Princess Mingzhu."

Ning'er looked at the two of them carefully.

She had never heard of Princess Mingzhu.

When did a Princess Mingzhu appear in the palace?

Just at this moment, the Queen heard some noise outside, so she helped Rong Mama out of the house. As for the conversation between Ning'er and Ziwei, she could hear it clearly inside.

"Ziwei pays respects to the Empress."

When Ziwei saw the Empress and Madam Rong walking towards her, she quickly bowed and greeted them.

"Get up." The Queen raised her hand, her indifferent eyes falling on Ning'er, "Ning'er, this is Princess Mingzhu who just entered the palace, and the other one is her personal maid Jinsuo."

Ning Er was so frightened after hearing this that her legs went weak and she immediately knelt on the ground, "My Lady Mingzhu, good luck to you. I was blind and didn't recognize you. Please forgive me."

Ziwei stepped forward and helped Ning'er up, saying with a smile, "It's okay, it's okay, get up quickly."

After Ning'er got up, she went to the inner room to clean up.

Ziwei looked around but didn't see Xiaoyanzi, so she looked at the Queen curiously, "Your Majesty, I have nothing to do, so I asked someone to bring Jinsuo and me to Kunning Palace to pay my respects to you. I also came to chat with Xiaoyanzi. I wonder if I'm disturbing you."

The queen stood there and looked at Ziwei seriously.

This child really looks exactly like her mother.

now.

She couldn't help but look at the pair of delicate hands, and recalled how she had been so cruel in her previous life that she had done so many cruel things to Ziwei, causing her to develop a chronic illness.

As she thought about it, she actually shed tears.

Ziwei panicked upon seeing this and stepped forward to ask, "Empress, what's wrong with you? Did something happen to Xiaoyanzi?"

"Xiaoyanzi, it's okay." The Queen raised her hand to wipe away the tears hanging from the corners of her eyes. "It's just that seeing you reminds me of my child who died before she reached adulthood. If she had been lucky enough to survive, she would have looked just like you."

Ziwei held the Queen's hand and said sincerely: "Your Majesty, please don't be sad. If you don't mind, you can treat me as your child. Ziwei is willing to accompany you."

"Why would I mind?" The Queen patted Ziwei's hand gently and continued, "Logically, you should also respectfully address me as Empress Dowager."

While talking.

Xiaoyanzi ran in happily from outside. When she came in, she saw Ziwei first, and then she found that the Queen Mother looked sad, and even her eyes were slightly red.

She walked over to them in surprise and asked, "Ziwei, you're here? Queen, what's wrong with you?"

"Oh, it's okay. I just suddenly remembered some sad things, but they happened a long time ago." The queen did not hide anything.

Xiaoyanzi smiled and comforted her, "My Lady, don't dwell on the past. You should always look forward."

After Xiaoyanzi finished speaking, Ziwei turned to look at the Queen and said, "Your Majesty, can I have a private chat with Xiaoyanzi?"

"Go."

The queen nodded in agreement.

……

Three days later.

After much inquiry and investigation, Xiao Jian finally got news about his sister. He frowned slightly, then walked to the river and slowly sat down under a willow tree.

It's hard to get some reliable news in these years.

But for some reason I feel particularly tired today.

After resting for a while under the willow tree.

He quickly stood up and found a slightly secluded place, changed into night clothes and put on a mask, and without saying a word, he turned around and entered the palace according to the pre-planned route.

But he never expected that the palace was so big. He searched for a whole incense stick of time but still couldn't find Xiaoyanzi. Instead, he felt dizzy.

In order to conserve his energy so that he could continue searching for Xiaoyanzi, Xiao Jian planned to find a place to rest first. So he looked around and found that he was standing on the roof.

"Princess, why are you still out so late?" Qiao'er followed her princess out of the house. "It's foggy tonight. I'd better go in and get you a cloak."

Qing'er stopped and turned around, pretending to look seriously at the chattering Qiao'er behind her. "Can you please stop being so long-winded? You're so young, yet you're acting like those elderly maids. If you keep talking so much nonsense, I'll send you somewhere else."

Qiao'er didn't mind what her master said about her.

Because Qiao'er knew that her master would definitely not be willing to send her to any other place.

Seeing that Qiao'er had finally calmed down, Qing'er said, "Go and help me get the four treasures of the study off the desk, and then light two lanterns for me and hang them on the branches nearby."

Qiao'er looked at her own princess in disbelief, thinking, it's already so late, what's going on?

But she knew that her princess was very stubborn. Once she made up her mind about something, no matter how others tried to persuade her, it would be useless.

"Why are you still standing here like an idiot? Why don't you go quickly?" Qing'er said.
