Guo Li was furious, but there was nothing she could do.
Because the retired emperor hasn't appeared in the last few days.
As soon as she stepped out of the room, she would be stopped and sent back by the palace maids left behind by Rong Qingqing, who claimed that her leg injury had not yet healed.
She was anxious and angry, but there was nothing she could do.
Does Rong Qingqing intend to keep her trapped here for the rest of her life?
She considered bribing the palace maids, but they were all Rong Qingqing's people and remained unmoved.
Just as she was worrying about how to get out of her predicament, Rong Qingqing and Feng Xin walked in hand in hand, followed by palace servants.
"Miss Guo, are you feeling much better today?" Rong Qingqing looked at her with a smile, her tone as gentle as an older sister's.
Guo Li sneered inwardly, but said on the surface, "I'm much better. Thank you for taking care of me these past few days, Your Majesty."
"That's good, but you still need to continue taking the medicine prescribed by the imperial physician," Rong Qingqing said, glancing at the palace servants.
A palace maid stepped forward with a bowl of medicine, saying, "Miss Guo, this medicine has just been brewed. Please drink it while it's hot."
Guo Li, without suspicion, took the bowl of medicine and drank it.
These past few days, this palace maid has been preparing medicine for her. She has been perfectly fine and nothing has happened to her. She doesn't believe that Rong Qingqing would dare to poison her. On the contrary, Rong Qingqing has to protect her well and not let her get hurt. Otherwise, if something happens to her in Yu Xian Palace, Rong Qingqing will have no way to explain herself, and the Emperor Emeritus will definitely not forgive her.
Therefore, Guo Li drank the medicine without worry.
Seeing that she had drunk every last drop of the medicine, Rong Qingqing said, "Today, the Empress Dowager has invited some ladies of high social standing to the palace. If you have nothing else to do, why don't you come along? It'll be more lively with more people."
Guo Li knew that the Empress Dowager disliked her and had even threatened to expel her from the palace. Thinking of that old woman, she felt a little scared and hesitated, not daring to agree.
"They say they're inviting young ladies to the palace for fun, but actually, Grandmother is indirectly selecting candidates for Father Emperor," Feng Xin said, sighing. "However, Father Emperor can't be without someone to serve him. If a suitable candidate is found, I will also wish Father Emperor well."
“Yes, the Empress Dowager has put a lot of thought into this. I have already sent someone to invite the Emperor Emeritus to the Imperial Garden.” Rong Qingqing said with a frown, “However, the Emperor Emeritus may not necessarily go.”
Upon hearing this, Guo Li's resolve wavered.
Although Rong Qingqing wasn't sure if the Emperor Emeritus would go to the Imperial Garden, there was at least hope that he would.
If she refuses to go now, wouldn't she miss an opportunity to meet the Emperor Emeritus?
She was just worried about not being able to see the Emperor Emeritus, and now the opportunity had come.
Even if the Emperor Emeritus doesn't go to the Imperial Garden for a while, she will still have left Yu Xian Palace. She can still find an opportunity to sneak into Tai Chen Palace to see the Emperor Emeritus.
In a short while, Guo Li had thought of many things and said to Rong Qingqing, "I am honored that Your Majesty thinks so highly of me. I would be very honored if I did not accept your kind offer."
"Let's go together now," Rong Qingqing said with a smile, and then walked out first, with Feng Xin following closely behind.
Guo Li tidied her makeup and followed them out.
The weather is fine today, with bright sunshine that is not scorching, making it perfect for outdoor activities.
When the three of them arrived, the Imperial Garden was bustling with activity, filled with vibrant young girls dressed in bright colors.
Upon seeing the three people, the previously lively noise suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes turned to them.
When they saw Guo Li walking behind Rong Qingqing and Feng Xin, everyone's eyes lit up with amazement.
