Chapter 126 Someone will bump into you

Perhaps Hawking Chi had deliberately left time for the medicine to be absorbed, and when the meal was delivered, it was already half an hour later.

But no one knew what important matter was being discussed in the main hall, and Hawking Chi still hadn't returned.

Yun Qin looked at the food on the table, frowned slightly, picked up a plate of snacks on the table, handed it to Xia Yun at the door, and whispered, "Aunt, please take it to the emperor."

Xia Yun lowered his eyes, took the snack from her hand, and said with a smile: "Young lady is still thoughtful."

Yun Qin laughed dryly at this. You couldn't say that she was feeling guilty.

Xia Yun said nothing more and left with the snacks.

At this time, he was discussing this year's imperial examination with the Minister of Personnel, and tea and snacks were already placed in front of him.

How could the people in front of him let the emperor go hungry?

So when Xia Yun placed a plate of the same snacks next to him, Huo Jinchi immediately understood that it was Yun Qin who sent it over, and a smile immediately flashed in his eyes.

He reached out and picked up a snack from the plate and said to Xia Yun, "Please take away the others."

"Yes." Xia Yun picked up the other snacks, lowered his eyes and walked away.

After everyone left, the Minister of Personnel clearly felt that the emperor's mood seemed to have improved a lot...

His eyes also fell on the plate of snacks, wondering who in the harem had sent it.

Xia Yun came back and smiled at Yun Qin, "Miss, the emperor likes you very much."

Yun Qin had already started eating at this time, and gave her a dry laugh when she heard the sound.

"I've already eaten outside the palace, you should pack these up..."

She wanted to heat it up for Huo Jinchi later, but she thought that he would definitely not eat leftovers, so she changed her mind and said, "Let's take it away."

After getting them, these dishes should be given to the palace servants, so she should stop using her chopsticks.

Hearing this, Xia Yun advised: "Young lady, you should eat a little."

"I really can't eat anymore." Yun Qin smiled at her.

After knowing what happened to Ajing, she actually didn't eat much at that time and she didn't have much appetite either.

Xia Yun tried to persuade her again, but seeing that she was still shaking her head, he could only order people to take the food away.

At the same time, the empress, who received the news that the emperor had finally met with the ministers, also hurried to the Tongming Palace.

Xu An, who was standing at the door, stopped her and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Shi is discussing matters with the Emperor inside. Your Majesty, why don't you go back first?"

"You've said this enough today!" The Queen glared at Xu An coldly with a frosty face.

Xu An quickly lowered his head and said, "I am also concerned about the health of the Empress."

The queen angrily said, "No need, I will wait here!"

This was not her first time coming. She came once after the morning court session. Xu An said that the emperor was resting and would not see anyone. All the ministers who wanted to see him were not seen, so he asked her to go back and wait.

Hearing that he finally got to meet someone this time, how could she be willing to leave?

The reason why the Queen was so anxious was naturally because of the imperial edict issued last night.

This time the Emperor was asking for the Empress Dowager's help, so of course she couldn't refuse. However, three days was too tight. Even if she worked without sleep, she couldn't sort out the list in such a short time.

At this time, several eunuchs carrying food boxes came out from the side hall.

The Queen immediately looked at Xu An, her eyes like knives, "Aren't you the Emperor discussing matters with Lord Shi? Who is having dinner then?"

Xu An felt bitter in his heart, how could things happen so coincidentally!

His face was calm, and he smiled and said, "Your Majesty, His Majesty hasn't had lunch yet, and just when he was about to eat, Lord Shi came over. It's been so long that the food has gone cold, so they just took everything away."

"Really?" The queen looked at him coldly, then looked from the eunuchs to the side hall.

Whether it is true or not, you won’t know until you go and take a look!

The queen narrowed her eyes slightly, "Then I will go to the side hall to wait for the emperor."

After she finished speaking, she strode towards the side hall.

Xu An quickly stepped forward to stop her, "My Queen, no, you can't..."

"What's wrong with that? Can't I just wait for the emperor in the side hall?" The queen snorted coldly and didn't stop even though he was trying to stop her.

Yun Qin was drinking tea from a cup in the room. When she heard the noise and looked up, the Queen had already walked in from outside and met her eyes.

Seeing that the person coming was the empress, Yun Qin couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

It seems like she doesn't need to plan anything at all, someone will just bump into her on their own.

As soon as the queen came in, she saw a man sitting on a couch, drinking tea from a cup, with a plate of snacks beside him, looking very contented.

Xia Yun and the others in front of her were serving on both sides, treating her as the master of the place.

She was surprised at first, but when she saw who was sitting there, she was completely shocked.

"It's you!" She couldn't help but raise her voice three degrees.

Yun Qin lowered her eyes, drank the tea she had not finished, breathed a sigh of relief, then stood up slowly and saluted the queen, "Your servant greets Her Majesty."

"How dare you!" The queen squeezed out these words from between her teeth, and each word seemed to be chilled by ice and brought a bone-chilling chill.

Yun Qin didn't feel anything about this, and continued to speak calmly, "I didn't know the Empress was coming, and I failed to greet her. Please punish me, Empress!"

What's the point of being an unwelcome guest? She sounds more like the master of this place.

The Queen was so angry that her fingertips were trembling. She angrily asked, "Why are you here?"

Before she finished her words, Xia Yun knelt on the ground and said to the empress, "Your Majesty, it was the emperor who placed the girl here."

The queen took a deep breath.

Of course it’s the emperor!

She should have figured out from the imperial edict last night who the emperor was so angry about!

She looked at Yun Qin lying on the ground, still wearing the palace dress of a palace maid, and a cold light flashed in her eyes.

She's just a palace maid, is it really necessary for her to make such a fuss?

The queen walked right past the two of them and sat on the couch.

Behind her, Xia Yun and Xu An looked at each other, their eyes full of worry.

Xia Yun frowned slightly, Xu An immediately understood, and quietly retreated.

The queen, who was sitting down, glanced at the tea and snacks on the table, and looked at Yunqin, whose face turned even colder. She said coldly, "Why don't you make tea for me?"

Just as Xia Yun was about to get up, the Queen pointed at Yun Qin and said coldly, "I want her to brew it!"

“My queen…”

"Is it possible that I can't control her?"

Xia Yun was about to say something, but Yun Qin stopped him with a look.

"Yes." She raised her eyes and looked at the queen.

I was so angry that my eyes were rolled up to the sky.

She had seen this trick a hundred times in various palace fighting dramas!

Yun Qin stood up and poured a cup of tea for the empress, then walked towards her with the cup in both hands.

Seeing the queen staring at her coldly, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and the next second she pretended to stagger, looking at the cup of tea in her hand and was about to splash it towards the queen.

The queen's face immediately changed and she quickly dodged to the side.

But when she finished dodging and looked up, she saw Yun Qin still holding the cup of tea steadily, looking at her innocently, "I just didn't stand steadily."

Just as the Queen was about to lose her temper, Yun Qin used her old trick again and stumbled...

The queen was still startled and quickly pulled up her sleeves to cover her face.

But this time, there was still no tea splashed over. When she pulled down her sleeves and looked again, Yun Qin had already placed a cup of tea steadily next to her. She acted as if nothing had happened and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, please have some tea."

The queen could no longer suppress her anger at this point, so she picked up the cup and poured it towards Yun Qin.

Yun Qin was not afraid at all. She just turned her head and let the cup of tea splash on herself.

When the tea fell on her without emitting any steam, the queen realized that the cup of tea in her hand was not warm at all, it was just a cup of cold tea!

Yun Qin glanced at her coldly and said, "Your Majesty is a little angry. Drink some cool tea to cool down your temper."

Humph, how could anyone possibly deliver a "hot" weapon into the hands of the enemy!

"you!"

The queen was so angry that she lost her mind. She raised her hand again and threw the cup in her hand at Yunqin. Then she heard a cold shout from the door: "The queen is showing off her power to me!"
