Xu Lingyi pretended to be calm and raised her head slightly.
She found that everyone was busy eating and no one noticed her.
She felt relieved.
When the Empress Dowager was speaking, he put down his chopsticks very naturally.
Then he picked it up again and successfully switched to his right hand.
From then on, she felt her inner tension ease a little, and the sweat on her palms became less.
Although this is a small thing, she is still afraid.
Because she didn't dare to think that if Qi Yuan knew, she would become Qi Yun's concubine.
How he should be furious.
She didn't dare to face him at all.
Xu Lingyi was so flustered during the meal that she didn't even come to her senses when Qi Yun spoke to her on the way back.

"Calligraphy? Would the emperor's uncle like it?"
Qi Yun originally planned to send weapons to the emperor's uncle, which seemed to be more in line with his uncle's preferences.
"How did you come up with the idea of giving me a copy of the calligraphy?" Qi Yun asked with a smile.
"I just said it casually because I just happened to like it."
Qi Yuan was sitting in the carriage heading back to the palace. He was resting with his eyes closed and his knuckles against his temples.
He thought about what happened at the family dinner today.
This Wu Zhaoyi, like Xu Lingyi, is left-handed.
She happened to be sitting opposite him, so he saw it.
It would be fine if she was just left-handed, but she seemed to be deliberately hiding it.
