Quick Wear: The saints are too miserable, the host will never be soft-hearted

Lu Yi looked at Liu Qiqi thoughtfully. She could probably guess what Liu Qiqi wanted to say.

But why would she ask more questions?

Liu Qiqi's current situation was deliberately caused by Lu Yi.

Lu Yi smiled and turned to leave Yuanzhuyuan.

Lu Yi turned around and stopped, thinking of something.

"We'll be leaving in a few days, so remember to eat more."

Lu Yi met Liu Qiqi's hopeful eyes and said this nonsense solemnly.

Then she lifted her robe with one hand and walked out of Yuanzhu Garden happily.

Xiaoyue followed Lu Yi out.

The servants guarding the courtyard bowed and waited for them to walk away before turning around and closing the gate of Yuanzhuyuan.

Liu Qiqi inside suddenly heard a familiar squeak and felt a sudden pain in his heart!

This really hurts. Liu Qiqi covered his heart and frowned.

After being locked up in Yuanzhu Garden for so long, he simply couldn't stand the sound of doors opening and closing!

Liu Qiqi got up from the ground and rushed out, shouting:

"What are you doing? Why are you closing the door? His Highness just left and you're closing the door again. Don't you know I can go out now?!"

The servant who closed the door kept moving his hands and replied slowly:

"His Highness only said he would take you out in five days, but he didn't say now. Anyway, I haven't received the order to lift your confinement, so you can't talk to me."

It was agreed that he would be under house arrest for one year. If he lets this Servant Liu out one day earlier, it will be considered as dereliction of duty and he will be fined monthly wages!

Xiaoyue turned around to get the Longjing tea that the emperor had awarded her, and found some dried rose petals. She stood aside and waited quietly for the water to boil.

Thinking of His Highness's instructions to Liu Qiqi just now, Xiaoyue clenched her sleeves.

She thought that when it was her turn to rest tomorrow, she would find an opportunity to go to the kitchen and ask the people in the kitchen to stop.

Minister Liu is too thin. It would be embarrassing for His Highness to take him out!

Let him enjoy it these days and eat more oily food!

I heard that rice mixed with lard is delicious and tempting, and it helps one grow weight. Lord Liu is so lucky.

Xiaoyue looked at the boiling water and her lips curled up slightly.

Lu Yi returned to his yard and lazily found a recliner to sit on.

After a while, she picked up a feather fan beside her and covered her face with it to block out the sunlight.

She remembered that she was summoned to the palace by the Queen today.

Inside the palace, the empress saw her coming. Her expression was different from usual, more solemn, and she said, "Yier, there's a report of a battle at the border."

Geek!

Lu Yi's pupils suddenly contracted.

In the few seconds that the Queen paused, Lu Yi thought of countless possibilities.

No way, no way, could it be that the border has been breached? No way!

The Queen said:

"Their food reserves are insufficient. I intend to send a minister to the border to escort the food. What do you think?"

There is not enough food and supplies, so they have to be sent. Lu Yi slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

She suddenly had a brainwave with the Queen, and Lu Yi asked tentatively:

"Mother Queen, you mean to let me..."

"Yes, I do have this idea." The Queen nodded affirmatively and continued:

"If you go on this trip, I will later reward you based on your merits. If you have made great contributions, I will then anoint you as the Crown Princess, which will also serve as a way to silence those ministers."

After the Queen finished speaking, she paused for a moment and looked at Lu Yi with a hint of worry in her eyes.

"It's just that the border is remote. I'm afraid we'll have to endure a lot of hardships on the way there and back. Secondly, I'm worried that you'll be in the army..."

The queen was speaking when a voice suddenly came from outside the door, breaking the atmosphere of conversation in the hall.

It’s Prince Sui!

The volume is so loud that it can be clearly heard from outside into the hall.

"Your son Lu Jue, begs to see the Queen Mother!"

The voices rang out one after another, each one more resolute than the last.

"Please, Queen Mother, see your son!"

The Queen slammed the table, her eyes filled with coldness, and said sternly:

"What are the eunuchs outside doing? Why don't they drag her away?"

The eunuch outside the door came in and immediately knelt down, his body lowered to the ground and trembling with fear, and said in a panic:

"Your Majesty, please forgive me! I am incompetent! It is simply that Her Highness Prince Sui is determined to see you and refuses to leave no matter how much you try to persuade her."

"Don't want to leave? Fine, let her get in here. I want to see what this Prince Sui has to say to me!"

The queen laughed angrily, and coldness poured out from her phoenix eyes.

While waiting for Prince Sui to enter the palace, the Queen waved her hand and asked Lu Yi to find a seat.

When Prince Sui entered the palace, Lu Yi first noticed her limping gait.

Then he was attracted by the purple mark on her forehead.

Lu Jue's cold eyes swept across Lu Yi. She lifted her robe, knelt down, and said to the Queen:

"Mother Queen, I have heard that the war at the border is urgent and that food and fodder are in urgent need. I am not afraid of danger and am willing to personally go to the border to escort the food and fodder for the army."

After hearing the purpose of Prince Sui's visit, the raging anger in the Queen's eyes gradually subsided.

She rubbed her fingers back and forth under her wide sleeves.

What Prince Sui said did make sense. The conditions at the border were harsh and cold, and wars were raging everywhere. She did have some concerns.

Seeing that the Queen didn't speak, Lu Jue gritted his teeth and continued:

"The border is desolate, and the conditions along the way must be extremely harsh! My sister has always lived a life of luxury, and is very affectionate with the servants in the palace. I'm afraid she can't endure this hardship. Let me share your worries!"

Lu Yi narrowed his eyes and said, "If you want to do your job, just find a way to convince the Queen. Why are you trying to pull her down?"

Don't say anything more, just go back as soon as possible.

Lu Yi rolled up his sleeves, not caring at all about the vicious look Lu Jue was giving him.

Lu Yi stood up and bowed to the Queen.

"Mother Queen, I am not afraid of hardship. You may take my servant with you on the journey. I am willing to share your worries!"

What Prince Sui said is very good, it helps relieve the Queen's worries.

If we think about this more deeply, isn't it just fulfilling filial piety to the Queen? Of course, we must be willing to do so!

The hall was silent. The queen looked back and forth at her two daughters. After a long moment, she finally spoke.

"Sui Wang, please go down."

"Mother Queen! Your son..." Lu Jue took two steps on his knees, his eyes full of unwillingness!

"I let you go."

The Queen glanced at her, her eyes were light and airy, but when they fell into Lu Jue's eyes, they seemed extremely sharp!

Lu Jue's words were stuck in her throat for an instant. She lowered her head dejectedly and walked out.

The queen still gave her this task and gave her many instructions before letting her leave the palace.

"Your Highness, this is the new tea given by the palace. Xiaoyue tried to brew the Rose Longjing tea. Would you like to try it and see if you like it?"

Lu Yi sat up slightly, put the feather fan on his legs, reached out to take the teacup that Xiaoyue brought, and took a look at the tea lid before drinking.

There are a few rose petals floating in the clear tea, which is very beautiful.

Lu Yi took a small sip, squinted his eyes slightly, and felt the combination of the fragrance of tea and flowers.

Unexpectedly, the taste was surprisingly good.

"This tea is good. When we leave in a few days, remember to pack some to drink on the road."

"Yes, Your Highness." Xiaoyue nodded, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly after receiving the praise from His Highness.

Lu Yi took two more sips and put the teacup aside.

She slowly lay back and breathed a sigh of relief. Lu Yi remembered the Queen's last words of advice to her.
