Chapter 171 Something's Wrong



Qin Su frowned slightly as she looked at the palace servant.

The palace maid did look familiar; she seemed to be from the Empress Dowager's palace. But previously, when the Empress Dowager wanted to see Yuanyuan, she always sent Granny Qin.

Perhaps sensing Qin Su's suspicion, the palace maid replied respectfully, "Granny Qin is serving the Empress Dowager and specifically sent me here."

Qin Su was still somewhat hesitant.

After all, they weren't acquaintances.

"I, the Princess Consort, will personally escort Yuanyuan there."

She couldn't possibly put her daughter in such danger.

Given this situation, Qin Su preferred to go herself.

The palace maid seemed a little anxious. "Your Highness, please wait here for His Highness Prince Chen. I will not make any mistakes."

Qin Su raised an eyebrow, finding this person increasingly suspicious.

"Does this princess need your guidance in doing things?"

The palace maid was very anxious, but she realized that she had given herself away, so she immediately lowered her head and said, "Yes, this servant knows her mistake. This servant was just worried that Her Majesty the Empress Dowager was getting impatient."

"Go back and tell her that I, the princess, will be here soon."

The palace servants had no choice but to leave first.

Qin Su immediately instructed Lian Tao to keep an eye on this person.

Even within the Empress Dowager's palace, problems could potentially arise.

"Sister, should we kill this person?" Luo Zhi moved closer to Qin Su, but her eyes were fixed on the child in Qin Su's arms.

Pink and white, so cute!

So cute!

This is my sister's child!

Qin Su was slightly speechless. "How can you kill people in the palace? No one is allowed to kill without my permission."

Luo Zhi looked somewhat aggrieved, but still obediently followed orders and dared not act recklessly.

She wasn't afraid of Qin Su punishing her or causing any trouble, but she was afraid that Qin Su would abandon her in the future and stop including her in his activities.

That was a complete shock.

Why does Luo Zhi like Qin Su?

She couldn't explain it, but she felt an instant connection with this older sister; she liked her the moment she saw her.

Perhaps this is what those sleazy men mean by "love at first sight".

"Sister, can I hug her?" Luo Zhi pointed at Yuan Yuan.

Her round, big eyes were fixed on Luo Zhi, as if she was also very curious about her.

Qin Su hesitated for a moment, "Where's your little cloth bag?"

Luo Zhi quickly hoisted her onto her back, repeatedly assuring her, "It won't hurt her, don't worry, sister!"

Seeing her confidence, Qin Su entrusted Yuanyuan to her out of trust. However, she carefully explained to her how to hold the baby, as the baby was very fragile and even a small action could hurt her.

Luo Zhi listened very carefully and indeed sensed the child's vulnerability.

But she smells so strongly of milk!

It smells so good!

Luo Zhi felt that her affection for Qin Su was shifting more towards this child.

"Sister, is her name Yuanyuan?"

She just heard about it!

She was genuinely paying close attention to the people around Qin Su.

And that lady who came before, the one wearing the pretty peach-pink dress, she was also super beautiful!

She likes it so much.

In short, Luo Zhi admires and likes Qin Su, and feels close to her. She would have the same attitude if she met another equally beautiful girl.

Of course, after spending so much time together, he might feel a little more intimate with Qin Su, but that's about it.

"Yuanyuan, Yuanyuan, it's me, Xiaozhi." Luo Zhi coaxed Yuanyuan awkwardly, feeling that if she used even a little force, the child would be gone.

This is my sister's child, just as beautiful as her! And just as soft and cuddly.

Luo Zhi's eyes were smiling, and her thick, long bangs hung down, revealing her round almond-shaped eyes.

Tuoba Yan also got rid of the officials and came over here.

"Is this the little princess?" He looked closely, but Luo Zhi glared at him.

"Stay away from Yuanyuan. You men are all clumsy and smelly, don't let the stench bother Yuanyuan."

Tuoba Yan: ? ? ?

Does this person have to be so prejudiced against men?

How could he smell bad?

"You're talking nonsense! I use incense!" Tuoba Yan liked the culture of the Central Plains, so he always wore incense. Not only that, he also applied powder to his face, though it was uneven.

I'm not from Da'an, so I'm not very familiar with it.

Luo Zhi simply refused to let him look after the child.

Because Qin Su was there, Tuoba Yan didn't dare to be presumptuous and could only crane his neck to look.

"Don't hurt Yuanyuan." Qin Su reminded Luo Zhi when Lian Tao returned.

Compared to the familiar palace servants, she trusted Luo Zhi and his companion more.

"Don't worry, sister!" she said, then kicked Tuoba Yan, meaning for him to get lost.

Unlike those in the capital who fawned over Tuoba Yan, Luo Zhi had no ulterior motives whatsoever.

In her view, Tuoba Yan was not much different from other men.

The only difference is that he doesn't seem to be that bad.

Qin Su stood up and gestured for Lian Tao to go aside and talk.

"How about it?"

“I saw her enter the Queen’s palace.”

Qin Su sneered.

What is the empress trying to do?

She did not believe that the Empress Dowager had impersonated the Empress Dowager simply because she wanted to see the child and was worried that she would not agree.

"Wait until they come out and then take them into custody."

Lian Tao agreed and left.

Qin Su tapped the table with her hand. Luo Zhi realized that she was not in a good state and asked softly, "What's wrong, sister?"

Qin Su naturally wouldn't tell Luo Zhi about this.

She shook her head and turned to the setting sun behind her, saying, "Take Yuanyuan back to the palace."

As the setting sun shone down, he realized he had overheard the conversation between Qin Su and Lian Tao.

They didn't know exactly what the Empress wanted to do, but it was definitely not well-intentioned.
