Chapter 580 The Heroine's Halo

Dai Jiangkuang easily accepted the arranged marriage, and no longer appeared around Shuhong from time to time.

It can be seen that the previous "chance encounters" in the palace were all intentional.

Si Linglong felt that this person was dangerous, and it would be best if she could cut off all ties with him from now on.

Shu Hong felt that there were still too many loopholes in Yuxiu Palace, so she asked Lie for help to check the entire Yuxiu Palace inside and out.

At the same time, as the end of the year approached, the team escorting Bai Qianqian was only one or two days away from Yongjing. As a result, news of Bai Qianqian's "merit" in disaster relief began to spread in Yongjing City.

Inside Yuxiu Palace.

Li Sheng was sitting on a soft cushion, carefully braiding the hair of the girl in front of her. Compared to the last time she entered the palace, Li Sheng's figure had obviously become thinner, but at least she was not growing as fast as before.

Xue Sha sat in front of Li Sheng, with the depressed Xiaoxiao sitting on his lap. He imitated Li Sheng's movements and braided Xiaoxiao's long hair. While doing so, he listened to Li Sheng saying,

"My brother said that many people outside praised Concubine Lian, saying that the disaster was controlled because of her, and that she was..." Li Sheng recalled for a moment, then determined, "She was a very blessed person."

Qinglu, who was serving on the side, turned green when she heard this.

Xue Sha was confused, "What is Da Fu? Why does she have Da Fu?"

Si Linglong explained seriously, "Da Fu is a kind of dessert, white and plump and delicious, which means that Concubine Lian is fat."

Si Linglong's expression and tone were too serious, causing Qinglu, who was originally feeling indignant, to suddenly lose control of her face and burst out laughing. Shuhong, who was standing next to her, also followed suit and laughed softly, but no one wanted to correct them.

Xue Sha listened thoughtfully, then looked down at his own little hands, and suddenly said with certainty,

"No matter how fat she is, she's not as fat as me. I'm much fatter than her!"

The tone is actually quite arrogant.

However, Si Linglong knew that Xue Sha had heard so many times that fat and white are the cutest that she simply used the word "fat" as a synonym for cute.

But children are indeed chubby and tender and cute, especially the fat on Xuesha's little face. Sometimes when Si Linglong sees her sleeping, she can't help but want to secretly take a bite of her.

But in the end, I held back, fearing that the kid would be too proud.

In fact, even if her brother didn't specifically let Li Sheng tell her about Bai Qianqian, Si Linglong had heard some news in the palace.

It was obvious from the news that the Bai family was building momentum for Bai Qianqian to return to the palace. Since they were trying to build momentum, they would naturally follow up with rumors inside and outside the palace, and Si Linglong had no choice but to listen.

But Qinglu was still very angry.

I couldn't help but speak now.

"There is nothing wrong with the rumors out there. Concubine Lian was clearly left on Mount Yutai by the Emperor, but she ran off to Xuancheng on her own. She didn't do anything in Xuancheng, and now that the disaster has been alleviated, it's all her credit!"

As he said this, he couldn't help but feel sorry for Si Linglong, "Our queen shouted until her voice became hoarse in order to raise more donations!"

When Si Linglong heard her say this, she would be lying if she said she wasn't angry.

After all, A Yue had shown her the letters sent back by the secret guard regarding Bai Qianqian's situation in Xuancheng.

The porridge stall that Bai Qianqian set up in Xuancheng initially used the grain from the prefecture. Later, when the imperial court distributed grain for disaster relief, she simply used the imperial court's grain.

But many people in Xuancheng did not know this. They only knew that the person standing there arranging the porridge distribution was Concubine Lian from the palace.

The common people naturally look up to noble people, and subconsciously they think that a queen as noble as this is a good person who can personally distribute porridge, and Bai Qianqian also spared no effort to promote her.

This wave of public opinion marketing was undoubtedly successful, but her base was in the palace. When the emperor treated her coldly, this was the new way out she found for herself. Now that she was back, she naturally had to strengthen her reputation among the people and consolidate her new label.

Si Linglong had already prepared herself mentally, but what could she do?

Even childhood sweethearts couldn't resist the man who dropped from the sky, so how could she, a supporting villain, resist the dazzling halo of the heroine?

Si Linglong didn't intend to sit and wait for death. After sending Li Sheng out of the palace in the evening and Ah Yue coming over for dinner, she secretly asked Helian Yue if he had any ideas.

Helian Yue only glanced at her at the time, but did not say anything. He just curled his lips slightly, and then said meaningfully,

"In two days--you will know."
