Xiao·Nonsense·Lin Ting, at this moment, sat upright with his back straight, looking straight ahead, and passed over Jiang Qingqing's deep gaze as if he didn't see it.
[Lying is fun, and lying is fun all the time. Now I have become a person who cannot leave my bed. If I go out to play in the future, won’t they tear down my bed and take it away?]
Xiao Linting pursed his thin lips. He had clearly put his hands away, so how could he still hear the little guy's thoughts?
He looked down in confusion and saw the little guy's hand on his body, but there was a jade token in between, so he didn't feel it before.
Xiao Linting: ...
Empress Xu said with emotion: "When the imperial decree was issued to ask you to go to the Princess's residence to help arrange the banquet, the imperial concubine was worried that you would not want to go the next day because of the Princess's aloof personality."
"Our Qingqing is so cute and lovable." Empress Xu stood up slowly. She came out of Qianning Palace and met Prince Xiao on the way, so she came here together.
Now that the message has been delivered, Empress Xu should start to busy herself with having the palace people send the princess's bed to the Princess's Mansion.
Huaning Palace suddenly became lively. Xiao Linting stood up and prepared to take the little princess out of the palace to the eldest princess's mansion.
But Jiang Qingqing suddenly thought of Jiang Chen whom she had abandoned. She hurriedly left Xiao Linting's arms and came to Queen Xu. She tugged at the queen's wide sleeves.
"Mother, I have an unwelcome request."
Empress Xu always tried her best to satisfy Jiang Qingqing's requests, but even so, she still followed the formal "procedure".
"What is it?"
"I want to take my third brother with me to help my aunt set up the banquet. Is that okay?"
Is it still too late to save Jiang Chen and get him out of the Imperial College now?
This request is a little serious.
The Third Prince is a prince after all. If he doesn't go to the Imperial Academy to attend classes at this critical moment...
Empress Xu was in a dilemma. She raised her hand and rubbed the little guy's round face, smiling and saying, "The Third Prince is busy with his studies. How about this? When he is on leave, you can accompany Qingqing to help him out."
Who wants to go out and play during the day off?! I want to fall asleep in bed.
Jiang Qingqing was secretly complaining in her heart.
Not getting the agreement she wanted, Jiang Qingqing pouted unhappily, tugging at Empress Xu's wide sleeves with her little hands, her body swaying from side to side.
"Qingqing wants to take the third brother out with her."
This sound is relatively more aggrieved.
Empress Xu was a little at a loss. She couldn't help but look around, but where was there anyone else in Huaning Palace at the moment?
Yes, there is... Prince Xiao never meddles in other people's business.
Empress Xu felt a little headache. After all, she had experienced Jiang Qingqing's crying and making a fuss, but as for the Third Prince's studies, although she was the Empress's biological mother, Jiang Chen was not her child after all.
It’s even harder to define.
Xiao Linting watched the child slip away from him, and then acted like a spoiled child to the Queen in a way he had never seen before. He looked carefully and inexplicably made eye contact with Queen Xu.
He thought for a moment, suddenly stood up and walked behind Jiang Qingqing.
"Your Highnesses' courses, some theoretical courses should be almost finished. Your Majesty and I discussed a few days ago and planned to let Your Highnesses try to participate in the court morning court. During this period of time, we are preparing to let Your Highnesses take a short break. Your Highness Princess's request is actually not impossible."
The prince's personal instructor has spoken like this.
If Empress Xu did not agree, it would seem that she lacked the decisiveness to rule the country.
The moment the Queen agreed to Jiang Qingqing's request, Jiang Qingqing quickly turned around and called out Gan Yuan.
Then Gan Yuan walked out of the crowd.
"Go to the Imperial College to pick up His Majesty the Third Prince, and tell him that he can leave the palace with me!"
Jiang Qingqing excitedly told Gan Yuan to hurry up.
Gan Yuan quickly agreed to her instructions, turned around and hurried out.
It was the first time Empress Xu saw a stranger in Huaning Palace, and she was stunned.
"This is……"
At first, she was still wondering how a stranger could sneak in since she had taken care of everything in Huaning Palace. But then her attention was focused on Prince Xiao.
At that moment, Empress Xu's mind suddenly became clear.
Prince Xiao treats Qingqing more attentively than those other princes. Maybe he feels that there are not enough people to serve Qingqing, so he specially dispatched two people to help Qingqing?
In the palace, the only "outsider" who could arrange for people to come in under Empress Xu's nose without anyone noticing was Xiao Linting.
Jiang Qingqing was excitedly packing the things she would take with her when leaving the palace, completely unaware that Empress Xu was suspicious of the stranger.
As for Xiao Linting, since the little princess ran away, he has returned to his usual distant and taciturn self.
Empress Xu hesitated and threw out half a sentence, but no one responded. She felt a little uncomfortable, so she simply asked Xiao Linting.
"Are the two maids beside His Highness arranged by the prince?"
"Yes." The familiar state of being frugal with words.
This is the ordinary Xiao Linting.
Empress Xu was speechless after hearing the concise answer. She looked helpless and shifted her attention away, again reminding the maids who were dismantling the bed in the bedroom to be careful.
Dismantling a bed is a huge undertaking.
A huge bed was lifted up by a dozen palace servants using a lever and carried out of the palace gate with a grunt.
The news that the beds in Huaning Palace were dismantled and sent out of the palace spread to every corner of the palace like a flying bird.
Including the ears of the two Han brothers and sisters who were in remote areas and were under heavy surveillance by the guards.
Han Qingyi has been enduring in this remote and deserted palace for several months. All her movements and behaviors are recorded, and someone sends the surveillance content to Qianning Palace every day.
At first, Han Qingyi felt uncomfortable, as if someone was disgusting her, and her face looked very embarrassed for several days.
Later on, Han Qingyi lost her temper and was even able to calm down and embroider some patterns by the window.
Han Qiming was calmly practicing boxing in the yard to keep fit.
Whenever Han Qingyi took the time to look up and take in the scenery, she could see the mentally disabled person standing in the yard and sliding back and forth. Han Qingyi rolled her eyes and simply closed the window to this teammate whom she thought was stupid.
Out of sight, at peace.
Hearing the sound of the window being closed, Han Qiming stopped his movements. He glanced at the guard who was "monitoring" him diagonally opposite him. The two of them looked at each other quickly, and then he walked back.
The guard at the door shouted impatiently, "Hey! Where are you going? You are under house arrest, you can't run around!"
Han Qiming said loudly without even turning his head: "Go to the toilet."
