Chapter 537 Fatty
After Bai Qianqian's matter was confirmed, Si Linglong no longer paid attention to it.
It would take at least half a month from the time Bai Qianqian's message was sent back to the time A Yue ordered people to escort her back to the palace.
Half a month is neither long nor short. It’s not that Si Linglong really doesn’t take Bai Qianqian, the heroine, seriously, but after the charity banquet, she became busy again.
First of all, there was the little mermaid she kept in her palace.
Yes, it was Hua Yan who was seen through by her from the first day but she still thought she was pretending well.
According to Si Linglong's original plan, she was going to find an opportunity to confirm her identity after the palace banquet.
Although she behaved differently from ordinary people in every aspect, Si Linglong was worried that she had misunderstood. But before she could confirm it, that night, when she was half asleep, she heard the sound of water coming from the side hall bathing pool.
Since the two sides were connected, Si Linglong simply got out of bed, opened a crack in the door at the bedroom end and took a look. Then, she saw... a fish tail splashing happily in the bathtub.
Even though she couldn't see the person behind the screen clearly, Si Linglong almost immediately confirmed that it was little sister Huayan.
Hua Yan obviously thought she had found a good place and did not even notice that the bathing pool and the bedroom were connected. She took advantage of the night when the door was locked and began to have fun cautiously inside.
Si Linglong didn't know how to comment on this child's stupidity.
[They made such a commotion in the middle of the night, and they weren't afraid of being discovered and caught and frozen. 】
Worried out, Si Linglong silently closed the small door between the two halls, and even covered for the palace maid on duty when she wanted to check the situation in the side hall.
After confirming that her new little singer was a fish, Si Linglong began to prepare to welcome Xue Sha back to the palace.
According to the original agreement with Yuan Zun, the ten-day deadline has arrived.
She also had to give Xueshan a legitimate identity and take him in to live with her.
After all, I can't just leave all the children to my brother to take care of.
[I don’t know what happened to Li Sheng. ]
Just when Si Linglong hadn't figured out how to explain Xue Sha's identity to the Queen Mother, news came from outside the palace -
The old lady is gone.
According to the time originally agreed with A Yue, his death was delayed for another two days, and he lived to be 88 years old, which is also known as rice longevity among the people.
In ancient times, those who could live to this age usually died happily.
Therefore, even though everyone in Wu'an Marquis's Mansion was in grief, the funeral still had to be held in a lively and lively manner.
Although Shen Rongrong was allowed to leave the palace to visit the elderly some time ago, there was no rule in the palace that concubines were not allowed to enter the palace to attend the funeral of elderly people at home. Once she entered the palace, she was not even allowed to wear mourning clothes for her deceased relatives.
Si Linglong overheard Qinglu mention that Concubine Shen had stayed indoors for the past two days, and the palace maids saw her and said that her eyes were red.
Si Linglong didn't expect that Shen Rongrong had such deep feelings for her great-grandmother, but she didn't know how to tell her that the old lady was not really dead, she just changed her appearance and started a new life.
As for where Xixi went to start her new life, Si Linglong asked Helian Yue, who had promised to cover up Xixi's "corpse".
Helian Yue only said, "The secret guards I sent said that she disappeared on the first day of the funeral, leaving no other trace."
Si Linglong was a little disappointed when she heard that.
[Why are you in such a hurry to leave? It's a rare opportunity to witness your own funeral, but you don't even want to take a look before you leave.]
Helian Yue: ...
Although there is nothing wrong with this statement, if you think about it carefully, it is a bit weird.
After asking, Si Linglong no longer paid attention to Xixi's news, but soon she found out where Xixi went to start her new life.
On the day when she arranged for someone to go outside the palace to pick up Xue Sha and bring him back to the palace, Si Linglong waited at the palace gate early until the carriage stopped in front of her. The chubby little baby dressed in a furry pink dress was held steadily in the hands of a palace maid and stood in front of her.
Before Si Linglong could touch the chubby little face, a big snow-white cat with a long tail waving jumped out of the car and sat down gracefully at Xuesha's feet.
Si Linglong heard Xue Sha scolding it with a milk voice, "Fei Fei, don't sit on the ground, your fur is all dirty."
