Chapter 371: Means of Regaining Favor
The Queen Mother's words were like a death sentence to Xin Ning. She didn't even hear the trembling in the Queen Mother's voice. She just begged, "Queen Mother, Xin Ning doesn't want to marry Bei Rong. Please help Xin Ning once, just this once. Xin Ning begs you..."
The Queen Mother just looked at Xinning deeply for the last time, then turned and walked towards him. Feng Xuanchen waved his hand, signaling the palace servants to drag Xinning away.
After not hearing any more cries from Xinning, Feng Xuanyi went back to the inner hall. Seeing the Queen Mother's dejected look, Feng Xuanyi asked, "Queen Mother, you should understand that this ending is the best for Xinning."
The Queen Mother didn't even raise her head to look at Feng Xuanyi: "Your Majesty, I need to rest, you should go too."
The Queen Mother didn't even want to see Feng Xuanchen, but Feng Xuanchen said nothing and just walked out without any mercy.
The Queen Mother's heart was filled with bitterness. She thought that she was Feng Xuan's biological mother and that no matter what happened, Feng Xuan would not do anything to her. Now it seemed that she had underestimated Feng Xuan's ruthlessness.
Maybe this is really retribution. I killed Yi Qingchen in the past, and now Feng Xuanyi is also merciless to me...
It was only after the dinner that Feng Xuan learned about Lanxi's feelings, so when Lanxi asked to see him in the middle of the night, he did not let her in.
Perhaps Lan Xi could not be blamed for today's situation, but she had lost face for Xixia, which Feng Xuan could not tolerate.
Perhaps knowing that she was destined not to see Feng Xuanyi tonight, Lanxi walked towards her residence with the help of the palace maid. However, halfway through the walk, she suddenly changed direction and walked towards the imperial concubine's palace.
Lanxi had served Yi Qingchen for so many years and knew that she slept little, so she must not have slept yet. In order to regain her favor, she could only ask Yi Qingchen for help.
Just as Lanxi thought, Yi Qingchen had not slept yet and even met Lanxi.
Seeing Lanxi, Yi Qingchen just asked: "Since Lanpin left the emperor's side, she has not come here again. Why is she here so late?"
"Your Highness, you should know how I feel."
Yi Qingchen smiled and said, "You have been with me for so many years, but I didn't know you were good at playing the pipa. That person who was the envoy of the imperial court is really amazing. He can even find this."
After Yi Qingchen's reminder, Lan Xi suddenly realized that what happened at the dinner today was someone deliberately targeting her.
Lan Xi didn't care about anything else, she just begged: "My Lady, I know you are the kindest person, you must have a way to help me."
"It seems that because of the incident at the banquet, the Emperor dislikes you." Yi Qingchen pretended to be distressed, "But how can I help you?"
Lanxi thought of the rice soup that Yi Qingchen made by herself in the past. Feng Xuanyi always liked to drink it: "My queen, you usually make rice soup by yourself, can you teach me?"
Yi Qingchen was a little embarrassed: "Lanpin, if you can make the soup that the emperor likes, will you teach other concubines to compete for his favor?"
Lanpin had no choice but to continue begging: "Your Majesty, I beg you, as long as I can regain your favor this time, I will never forget your kindness."
"Princess Lan, there are some feelings that I won't believe just by saying them."
Lanpin looked up at Yi Qingchen and said, "Your Majesty, I know that Concubine Nian and Concubine De have been scheming against you all these years. I will definitely help you overthrow them. When that time comes, no one in this harem will be able to stop you."
"Princess Lan, have you forgotten that I am just a dying person?"
"I will definitely let them be buried with the queen!"
Lanpin's words seemed to touch Yi Qingchen's heart: "Go to the kitchen and make some chicken soup for me."
Lanpin didn't understand Yi Qingchen's intention, but she still did as she asked. When she brought the stewed chicken soup to Yi Qingchen, Yi Qingchen didn't drink it: "Try it first."
