Rong Qingqing laughed and said, "What you said is not without reason, but your emperor brother is just an oddball. Someone like Guo Li is not even worthy of his attention."
Feng Xin said with a grin, "You really know my Emperor brother well. But you're right, the only one who can catch his eye is you. I was just overthinking it."
Rong Qingqing ignored her teasing and sighed, "Even so, some people are still self-righteous and have some inappropriate thoughts."
Feng Xin was taken aback. "You mean, Guo Li has designs on the Emperor?"
Rong Qingqing shrugged. "That's hard to say."
"Then you still dared to bring her to Yuxian Palace. Although the Emperor would definitely not be seduced by that woman, you really have a big heart." Feng Xin clicked her tongue in amazement.
"Then why not bring her here and let her stay in Taichen Palace? This woman is obviously up to no good. Letting her stay by the Emperor Emeritus's side is always a potential threat. It's better to keep her under my watchful eye. Anyway, I have time to keep an eye on her, so I'm not afraid of her playing tricks."
Feng Xin was speechless.
Well, there really is no other way right now. My father even argued with my grandmother because of that woman.
To be honest, that woman is indeed quite cunning. In just one night, she managed to get my father to do this much for her. If she were to stay by his side any longer, who knows what other trouble might arise.
“That may be true, but we can’t let her live in Yuxian Palace forever, can we?” Feng Xin couldn’t help but say.
"Don't worry, this is only temporary," Rong Qingqing said.
Seeing that she was confident, Feng Xin felt relieved. "Then I'll go back first. If you need my help, you can have someone call me anytime."
"Well, you should go back soon, or Xiao Muzi will come looking for you," Rong Qingqing said jokingly.
Feng Xin blushed, stomped her foot, and said, "I'm not talking to you anymore." Then she ran away in a flash.
Rong Qingqing shook her head and returned to her bedchamber.
Xie Jingrun returned at noon. During the meal, Rong Qingqing took the initiative to bring Guo Li back to Yuxian Palace to stay.
"I heard about it." Xie Jingrun placed a piece of chicken on her plate. "Thank you for your hard work."
Rong Qingqing took a bite and shook her head. "It's not that hard, but..." She paused and said in a joking tone, "Miss Guo is quite beautiful and has a charming temperament. She is very pitiful. Now that she is living under the same roof as us, you'd better keep your composure."
Xie Jingrun glanced at her and said, "I already have a beauty in front of me. I don't think anyone can compare to her."
Upon hearing this, Rong Qingqing's lips curled up slightly. Undeniably, she felt a little sweet inside after hearing his flattery.
"That's true, your taste isn't that bad."
Xie Jingrun chuckled, "Now you think you're prettier than others?"
Rong Qingqing coughed lightly, "How could I be so shallow? That's not true."
Xie Jingrun curled his lips, not exposing her little scheme.
“However, although I have trapped the person in Yuxian Palace, I am afraid that Father Emperor will not give up so easily,” Rong Qingqing said solemnly.
Xie Jingrun's smile faded. "Mm."
Rong Qingqing stared at his handsome features for a while, then suddenly said, "Actually, I have a way to make Father Emperor give up."
"What method?" Xie Jingrun felt uneasy under her gaze and suddenly had a bad feeling.
