The content of the conversation was the same as in the previous life, but the person turned out to be Bai Zhirou!
Xia Yuning was so angry that she vomited blood!
She actually missed the time just now!
Missed this God-given opportunity!
This is the only chance to get close to the Queen Mother!
Xia Yuning was so angry that she dug her fingernails into her palms without realizing it, and her eyes were fixed on Bai Zhirou.
She simply hated Bai Zhirou!
In her previous life, Bai Zhirou was cowardly and rude, not liked by the emperor, and she also offended the empress in the palace, which led to her accidental death.
But in this life, everything is different!
What went wrong?
The news that the Empress Dowager was lost in the palace again spread, and the Empress hurried to the Cining Palace with a group of concubines.
The huge Cining Palace was suddenly packed with people, and among them were Chen Zhao and his sister. They nodded to Bai Zhirou as a greeting.
The Queen breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the Queen Mother was safe and sound. Her eyes subconsciously met with Prince Rong who was standing next to her, and then quickly looked away.
"Mother, you must have worried me! Fortunately, I am safe and sound." The queen tried her best to suppress the bitterness in her heart and forced a smile.
"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager is blessed with great fortune. There will definitely be noble people to help her. You can rest assured now." Concubine Guo comforted.
The queen responded randomly and stopped talking. She felt her heart beating wildly, as if it was about to jump out of her throat.
Bai Zhirou keenly sensed a hostile gaze directed towards her, and saw that it was Xia Yuning.
That explains it.
Her appearance filled Xia Yuning with a sense of crisis, as if she would snatch away her parents and brother, and her wealth and glory, at any time.
Her appearance also announced to the world that Xia Yuning was a villain who had usurped the throne!
"Zhirou, the Queen Mother is asking you a question!" Although the princess smiled, the warning in her eyes was very obvious.
Bai Zhirou withdrew her gaze and knelt respectfully before the Queen Mother, "Your Majesty, I don't want anything. I just want you to live a long and healthy life with endless blessings."
These words deeply moved the empress dowager.
Look at this honest child, she doesn’t want anything and we still wish her a long and healthy life!
If it were someone else, he would definitely be given gold, silver, jewelry, and an official position.
"Listen! Listen to what she said, what a good child!" The Queen Mother personally helped the person up, "Emperor, she has done me a favor, please reward her."
The emperor looked at Bai Zhirou, considered for a moment, and said, "Even if you are Prince Rong's biological daughter, you are my niece. I will confer upon you the title of Princess Mingzhu, and the title of Imperial Jade Butterfly."
"Your Majesty, I thank you for your grace. Long live the emperor." Bai Zhirou knelt down and saluted respectfully.
As soon as these words were spoken, Prince Rong and the Princess were the first to disagree.
Prince Rong stepped forward with an anxious look on his face, "Brother, this isn't right! You said before that you wanted to make Yuning a princess! She's your niece, whom you've loved so much for fourteen years!"
The emperor's eyes swept over him quietly, "Third Brother, are you saying that I am blind and can't judge people?"
Prince Rong, Princess Rong, and Xia Yuning immediately knelt down before the Emperor, all of them breaking out in cold sweats!
"I am ignorant, please punish me, my dear brother!" Prince Rong said in a trembling voice.
Xia Yuning's face turned pale, and all the words were stuck in her throat and she couldn't say them.
There was just a voice in my heart that was yelling wildly.
No, no, it shouldn't be like this!
This is not right!
She is obviously the Princess Mingzhu!
She wanted to shout out, but when she met the emperor's cold gaze, she couldn't say anything.
"The royal bloodline cannot be disturbed. From now on, Yu Ning will be an adopted daughter." The emperor's words blocked Xia Yu Ning's road to wealth and honor.
There is an essential difference between an adopted daughter and a biological daughter. In the final analysis, she is just a fake who cannot be separated from one's feelings!
The chief eunuch hurried over and whispered to the emperor with a sad face that the imperial seal was missing.
The empress dowager on the side naturally heard this. Seeing the emperor's headache expression, she shook her shoulders proudly.
The eunuchs and palace maids in the imperial study were going crazy searching for the jade seal.
The emperor understood immediately upon seeing the empress dowager's expression, "Mother, where did you hide the imperial seal? This concerns matters of state, and it's not something to be trifled with."
When the emperor spoke to the empress dowager, it was as if he was coaxing a child, which was completely different from before.
"I won't tell you." She turned away proudly. Bai Zhirou noticed the emperor's gaze and stepped forward to hold the empress dowager's arm.
"Empress Dowager, do you still remember where you put the imperial seal?" Bai Zhirou asked.
"Of course I know. I put it, eh, where did I put it? I clearly remember putting it in...eh, why can't I remember it clearly?" The empress dowager covered her head with her hands, her eyes were confused, her brows were furrowed, and she didn't seem to be pretending.
Bai Zhirou knew that she couldn't remember it, but fortunately she still remembered where she put it.
She took the initiative to suggest that she take people to look for it, and Shen Zhao and Shen Ruyi also wanted to go together.
How could Xia Yuning let her find him so easily? She adjusted her mindset and followed him.
Several young people left the Cining Palace together.
"Bai Zhirou, what on earth are you doing? Why did you meet the Queen Mother?" Xia Yuning leaned forward and lowered her voice.
"You're not pretending anymore? I thought you were going to pretend until the end of time. Why did I meet the Queen Mother? You ask me?" Bai Zhirou felt that this person was crying thief, which was very puzzling.
Xia Yuning was choked by her words, without feeling guilty at all, "Do you know where the jade seal is?"
In the previous life, the jade seal was hidden in the grass by the lake. Xia Yuning didn't know if it was the same in this life.
After all, there is the variable Bai Zhirou!
"What's it got to do with you? Don't follow me!" Bai Zhirou was so fed up with Xia Yuning that she didn't even want to talk to her.
Xia Yuning did the same. She turned around and parted ways with the others, heading towards the place she remembered.
Zhao followed Bai Zhirou leisurely, as if they were taking a walk.
"I didn't expect that after just one hour's absence, you've transformed into a princess. This is truly a cause for celebration." Chen Zhao had a sarcastic tone.
Bai Zhirou resisted the urge to hit him, "Isn't this all thanks to Master Shen? My sister must be madly hating me!"
Chen Zhao laughed, "I thought you would ask for some gold, silver, and jade or even ask to be an imperial concubine or something, but I didn't expect you to ask for nothing."
Shen Zhao mingled in the marketplace, so he was naturally accustomed to the mercenary faces of the petty bourgeoisie.
He thought Bai Zhirou was the same.
As they were chatting and laughing, a figure ran over holding something. It was Mingcui who had disappeared just now.
"Miss, I found it!" Mingcui spread out the cloth covered with mud, and in her palm was the imperial seal.
Once you find that place, go back. As for Xia Yuning, who cares about her?
After seeing the imperial seal, the emperor finally felt relieved. He did not dare to blame the empress dowager, but only praised Bai Zhirou and rewarded her with a cart of gold, silver and jewelry.
