Chapter 245: Sneaky



"I... got lost." Qing Xing simply made up a lie. Huang Zijun looked at what was hidden behind her hand, raised his thick eyebrows and stretched out his hand, "What are you hiding behind your back? Let me see."

"nothing!"

Qing Xing looked down with a guilty look in her eyes. She didn't want this thing to be seen by others.

"You didn't steal anything from the palace, did you?"

Huang Zijun's words made her furious. She glared at him with her starry eyes and said, "How can you talk like that? I'm well-fed and well-clothed by the princess' side. How could I steal things from the palace? Don't talk nonsense!"

"Then show me."

Huang Zijun is impartial and just. Even if they are people he is familiar with, he still has to maintain a selfless appearance in the palace.

"It's nothing..." Qing Xing took out the thing and showed it to him. She looked at it roughly and quickly stuffed it into her sleeve.

"This was given to me by a friend in the palace. By the way, General Huang, I haven't seen you go to Ruyi Inn for a long time." Qingxing knew that she couldn't see him every time. Only when she was in the palace, she could run into him by luck.

But I miss you so much in my heart.

"I don't have time to go."

Huang Zijun said indifferently and turned away.

Qingxing looked at his resolute back as he left with a lonely look in her eyes.

Gu Yunru and Rong Zhen went their separate ways, one went to the Empress Dowager's bedroom and the other went to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity.

When she met Aunt Hua again, Gu Yunru specially brought the newly formulated Baicao Cream. This Baicao Cream is an upgraded version, which has the effect of beautifying the skin and removing freckles. Knowing that Aunt Hua has to use a lot of makeup every day to cover up the freckles on her face, she specially launched this skin care product for beautifying and removing freckles.

"Princess...I and the Queen Mother haven't finished using the facial mask you sent to the palace last time."

Aunt Hua couldn't help but be delighted. Ever since she started using the skin care products prepared by the princess, people in the palace said that she and the queen mother looked like sisters, and that she seemed to be ten years younger.

"This is specially made for Madam. Haven't you always been annoyed by the freckles on your face? This can lighten them. Use it every night from now on. I guarantee you'll look like a girl the next morning."

Gu Yunru used every possible means to promote her products. Besides, the skin care products she made were all very effective. If people in the palace spoke highly of them, it would be very easy to sell them among the people, just like the celebrity effect.

"Thank you, princess."

Aunt Hua was filled with gratitude. She didn't expect that she could still be so coquettish at this age.

"You're welcome!"

Gu Yunru felt empty behind him. Why hasn't Qingxing caught up with him yet? Could she be having some romantic time with Xiao Dengzi? After a second thought, he strode into the hall to pay his respects to the Queen Mother.

"I have met the Queen Mother. May the Queen Mother live a thousand years and a thousand years." Every time Gu Yunru said this, she felt strange because she didn't mean it...

If she lives another thousand years, wouldn't she become an old witch? "Get up quickly!" The queen mother was also happy and asked someone to help her up. At this time, the nurse carried the little princess out.

"The princess is here, come and see the little princess."

Tingya was still recuperating at this time, and brought the little princess out to meet Gu Yunru first. Gu Yunru looked at her goddaughter, quickly took out a gold lock made by a craftsman, and shook it in front of her, "Little one, take a look, do you like it?"

Gu Yunru saw that the little guy's eyebrows and eyes were extremely similar to his mother's. Even the Queen Mother said so.

"Shu'er cried non-stop when she was born. Now she's fine. She must have recognized me." The Queen Mother didn't expect to have a great-grandson so soon. Looking at Gu Yunru standing beside her, her stomach was still so calm. She couldn't help but frowning.

"You and Zhen'er have been married for half a year, why is there still no movement in your belly?"

When asked by the Queen Mother, she smiled reluctantly, held the little girl in her arms, put a golden lock on her, and took out a little hat and shoes, wanting to try them on.

"Her Majesty, the princess and the prince are still young, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

Aunt Hua knew that Gu Yunru didn't want to be asked this question, so she stepped forward to help her out.

Gu Yunru looked at Nanny Hua with gratitude, it seemed that the Baicao Frost was not given to her in vain.

"Of course I know they are young, but now is the right time. You two are so in love, wouldn't it be wonderful to have a child now?"

The Queen Mother stared at the blush on her expressionless face, then drank the teacup on the table.

"Princess, the little princess needs milk, so please give it to me."

The wet nurse at the side saw that the little princess was a little tired, and her two little hands kept waving. It could be seen that she liked Princess Zhao very much.

"Well, slow down." Gu Yunru's arms were sore from hugging the baby, and she was just waiting for the nanny to say this. She didn't like children in her heart, but she did like other people's children. It was just that she was afraid of trouble, and if there were children, it would definitely tie her down.

"Yun Ru...did you hear what I said to you?"

The Queen Mother looked at her absent-mindedly and repeated it in a heavier tone.

"Ah... Queen Mother, what did you just say?" Gu Yunru looked at the Queen Mother in confusion. With a pair of black eyes flashing, she pretended to be clueless.

"Forget it. There's no need to rush to have a child. Since you want to let nature take its course, then just let nature take its course." The Queen Mother was obviously a little tired. Knowing that Gu Yunru would not listen to her, she let her go alone.

"Madam Hua, take her to see Tingya."

The Queen Mother knew that Gu Yunru's heart was not with her, and he must be wanting to see Tingya.

Gu Yunru lowered her head and quietly stuck out her tongue, then followed Aunt Hua to find Tingya. Following behind Aunt Hua, she whispered, "Thank you for what happened just now, Aunt Hua. If it weren't for you, the Queen Mother would have scolded me again."

Thinking of the Queen Mother's earnest look, Gu Yunru felt like her eardrums were about to explode.

I hope Rong Zhen won’t be mentioned about this matter in front of the emperor.

"Brother, according to the report from the spy, Xie Changyong's subordinates set up a private blockade and colluded with foreign businessmen to sell arms and intelligence. The evidence of this crime has been found, and the relevant evidence is being sent back as fast as possible."

"Good, you did a good job! I'm thinking about how to eliminate some of the power of the Grand Chancellor. If we can start with Xie Changyong, then there will be a breakthrough in all this."
