Chapter 98 How can you slap the heroine in the face?

Not only others, but Si Linglong herself was also confused.

Helian Yue just said that she was promoted to the position?

[I, I leveled up?! ]

At this moment, Si Linglong suddenly felt the pleasure of reading an upgraded novel.

Looking at Bai Qianqian's almost uncontrollable facial expression, Si Linglong was instantly amused.

[Oh, look at the slap on my face. I feel embarrassed. ]

[Really? How can you hit the heroine in the face? 】

"Thank you very much." Si Linglong's heart was flying, but she still looked well-behaved.

Helian Yue just found it funny. If she really tried to be so obedient as others, she should have said "I am terrified". But she was not like that. She thanked him without being polite. Moreover, she was not only smug in her heart, but also had no concealment in her eyes. It was not difficult to guess what she was thinking.

However, compared to the aggrieved look just now, the cocky look is more pleasing to the eye.

Bai Qianqian was about to explode with anger, but she had to pretend to be magnanimous. The emperor was clearly favoring Si Linglong, and if she went up to him to ask for an explanation, the emperor would only hate her even more.

"Congratulations, Sister Lang." Bai Qianqian suppressed the bitterness in her heart and looked at Helian Yue with pretended worry, "But you have been promoted three levels so suddenly. I am worried that there will be some complaints in the harem..."

Helian Yue glanced at her and said in a cold voice, "Lang Guipin had made great contributions in uncovering the Qi family. She should have been rewarded long ago. If anyone in the harem has something to say, tell them to come to me."

As soon as Helian Yue said this, Bai Qianqian shut up instantly.

The emperor has said so, who dares to say anything else?

The concubines in the harem didn't even dare to look for him.

I could only pretend to be magnanimous and said, "Your Majesty is right. It is my sister's blessing to be loved so much by your Majesty."

Upon hearing this, Si Linglong suddenly stepped forward and held Bai Qianqian's hand, then said sincerely, "This is all thanks to Sister Lian Fei."

If she hadn't insisted on finding fault with my clothes, I wouldn't have been able to achieve this position.

Princess Lian: ...

You're going to make me die of anger.

[Haha, I'm mad at you. I just like the way you can't stand me but can't get rid of me.]

Helian Yue was already accustomed to Si Linglong's style of showing off whenever she felt like it, but Bai Qianqian was indeed not worthy of sympathy.

Originally, he wanted to agree to add Si Linglong to the entourage list for her sake, so as to take the opportunity to catch some evidence against Helian Tuo. But now it seems that it is better to keep her in the palace.

If Bai Qianqian was deprived of the qualification to accompany the delegation that she had been seeking so hard, she would be furious. However, she did not dare to say a word at this moment and could only respectfully withdraw.

It seemed as if everything was against her.

Bai Qianqian turned around and just as she was about to turn the corner, the tip of her hair was inexplicably caught by a drooping branch, messing up her neatly tied bun.

Upon seeing this, the palace maids nearby rushed forward to rescue her.

This sudden change made Si Linglong and Helian Yue, who had originally planned to return to the palace, look sideways.

Si Linglong was in a typical posture of watching the excitement, with half of her body leaning towards Bai Qianqian, which made Helian Yue unable to help but pull her back.

At this moment, Bai Qianqian exclaimed in disbelief and restraint, "How could this happen?"

"My Lady, I didn't do anything..."

Si Linglong was confused, but because of the action of pulling Si Linglong just now, Helian Yue happened to hear all the heart sounds over there.

Bai Qianqian: [My hair...how come it's like this?!]

Palace maid: [I was just helping to clear the branches, but how come a bunch of your hair fell out when you touched it? What should I do? ]

After a moment of panic, Bai Qianqian seemed to be worried that someone here would hear the noise. She quickly covered her tangled hair and said in a deep voice, "Don't make a sound! Go back to the palace first."

Si Linglong tilted her ears but couldn't hear what was happening over there. She couldn't help but mutter, "What's going on?"

Helian Yue looked at her and said meaningfully, "Princess Lian's hair got caught on a tree branch and fell out again for no reason."

Si Linglong was surprised, "Why didn't I hear about hair loss?"

Helian Yue said confidently, "My hearing is better than yours."

Si Linglong seemed to believe it, but couldn't help wondering, "How could his hair suddenly fall out after being hooked by a tree branch?"

Helian Yue found her bewildered look funny. Si Linglong didn't know, but he guessed it.

Suddenly, he waved his hand to signal the surrounding palace maids to move away, then leaned close to Si Linglong's ear and whispered, "My beloved concubine, do you know that Concubine Lian once ordered someone to secretly steal the recipe for the hair-beautifying cream you made for Xue Sha?"

Si Linglong was confused at first.

[Why did Concubine Lian steal my hair-beautifying cream recipe...why couldn't she just buy it from me directly...wait, hair-beautifying cream? ]

The next second, she seemed to have thought of something, and her heartbeat suddenly rose.

[Could it be that she lost her hair because she used the hair beautifying cream I made for Xue Sha? ! ! ]
