Chapter 27 I'm hungry!

Yun Qin only waited at the door of Yu's study for a while before Xu An came out.

His face was a little dark, but he still forced a smile at Yunqin, "Miss Yunqin, the emperor is busy. He will have to summon ministers to discuss matters later. I'm afraid he won't have time to see you."

"It's okay, it's okay." Yun Qin achieved her goal and smiled at him even more politely.

The more she smiled like this, the stiffer Xu An's smile became. He had never seen Miss Yun Qin like this before.

When other people couldn't deliver their things, they would either get angry or scared, or even ask him for help. No one was as happy as she was!

It's a pity that this old man has to bear the emperor's wrath.

"Then I won't disturb Eunuch Xu and will go back to the palace first." Yun Qin said and was about to leave.

Xu An quickly called her, "Miss Yunqin, your snack..."

Why did she take the snacks away too?

Yun Qin finally reacted and quickly handed him the food box, "Thank you for your hard work, Eunuch Xu." After saying that, she bowed and left without looking back.

Xu An glanced at the food box in his hand, sighed, and returned to the hall with a bitter face.

In the hall, Huo Jinchi was looking down at a memorial. He didn't raise his head when he heard the voice, but just asked calmly, "Is he gone?"

"Your Majesty, I'm leaving." Xu An didn't dare to look at his expression and held the food box in front of him. "This is the snacks that Yunqin sent me."

Huo Jinchi slammed the letter shut and said in a slightly cold tone, "Throw it away!"

Xu An hesitated for a moment, then nodded his head and agreed.

He had not yet forgotten how angry the emperor was just now, and he threw away the red pen in his hand. It must be said that Miss Yunqin was an irritating person.

Huo Jinchi reached out and took another folder and unfolded it, but he didn't read a word.

He slammed the letter shut again, "I'm hungry!"

Xu An had just walked outside when he heard the voice and hurried back, saying, "Your Majesty is hungry? I'll ask someone to go to the study and get some food. Your Majesty, would you like a snack or something to drink?"

Huo Jinchi looked at him and said coldly, "Isn't there a ready-made one?"

"But didn't the Emperor just say..."

Being stared at by Huo Jinchi, Xu An swallowed back the rest of his words and said, "I will bring it to His Majesty."

Soon, three plates of snacks were placed in front of Huo Jinchi.

Huo Jinchi picked up a pineapple cake and took a bite. His eyes flickered as he glanced at the snack in his hand.

The concubines said they made the snacks themselves, but most of the time they were just watching from the sidelines, and the snacks were still made by the cooks or palace maids.

It's not like he had eaten pineapple cakes at Huipin's place before, but it didn't taste like this back then.

Huo Jinchi's mind suddenly turned and he knew what was going on.

"Little liar."

"What did the emperor say?" Xu An thought he had heard wrongly.

Huo Jinchi snorted and laughed, "Nothing." He turned the pineapple cake in his hand. It tasted good, crispy and not too sweet, just right.

Everything he makes is just to his liking, but...

Hawking's face turned cold again, and he took a bite of his snack in a venting manner.

Seeing how voraciously he was eating, Xu An thought he was really hungry, and quickly poured him a cup of tea, "Your Majesty, please eat slowly, be careful not to choke." But Huo Jinchi gave him a cold look.

Xu An's scalp tightened. What happened? Why was the emperor becoming more and more difficult to serve?

——

On the other side, seeing Yunqin coming back, Huipin stood up from the couch.

"Why did you come back so soon? Did you meet the emperor?"

Yun Qin lowered her head, "Eunuch Xu said that the emperor is busy and will summon ministers later. He has no time to see me."

"No time?" Huipin frowned immediately, feeling unbelievable, "Seeing you in this state before going to the court, he actually said that the emperor has no time to see you?"

Could it be that she was really wrong, and the emperor had no intention of loving Yun Qin?

How could that be? The Emperor is also a man...

Huipin took a deep breath and sat back slowly. "The emperor may be really busy. This time the timing is not right. Let's wait until next time."

Yun Qin knew that she would not give up, so she was not surprised. She just lowered her eyes and said, "Yes."

Somehow, Huipin suddenly found her much more pleasing to the eye, and her voice softened, "You've been busy all morning, go and take a rest."

"Thank you, Madam." After she finished speaking, she touched her head and took off the hairpin that Huipin had inserted in her hair before, "Give it back to Madam."

Huipin didn't stretch out her hand. "If I give it to you, it's yours. Take it."

Why would she want something that was brought by a palace maid?

Yun Qin bowed and saluted, "Thank you, Madam."

"As long as you work hard for me, there will be more rewards in the future." After saying that, Huipin waved her hand and asked her to stand up.

"Then I will take my leave."

Yun Qin walked out of the hall and met Rong Xin on the road. She pulled her to a deserted place.

"The Queen asked you to go to Yuqian to deliver some snacks." Rong Xin looked at her gorgeous clothes and the jade hairpin on her head.

Yun Qin sighed. Rong Xin was on duty last night and she didn't have time to tell her about this. Now that they met, she told her about what happened yesterday.

"Your Majesty, how could it be possible? How could you have such thoughts?" Rong Xin was also shocked.

"How would I know? She actually said that my good days are yet to come. With her attitude, if I really had something with the emperor, she would be the first one to hate me to death!" Yun Qin was so angry that she almost tore off the sleeves she was holding.

Rong Xin panicked for a moment, "What should I do?"

"Don't worry, I have a way." Yun Qin held her arm and told her about what happened when she ran into the emperor in Yu Garden that day.

Rong Xin was even more shocked when she heard this, "Why did you keep this from me? Isn't the emperor's love for you..."

Yun Qin sneered, "He has already figured out that I can't escape his grasp, so he wants to force me to bow my head."

"Then you are not..."

"I have my own way to make the emperor not see me." Yun Qin's eyes flashed with a dark light. How could the arrogance of the superior not be a tool that could be used?

"As for Huipin." Yunqin sneered again, "I don't know whether she is more disappointed or happy to see that I failed. Now she is holding her breath and intends to burn her boats, but if I still can't see the emperor, she will lose her anger and she will be the first one to stop me from going to the front again."

Seeing that she had a plan in mind, Rong Xin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, "It's only a few days. Just get through it and wait for you and Nanny Ruan to leave."

Speaking of this, Yun Qin's brows were filled with gloom. She didn't tell Rong Xin that Huipin used Ajing to threaten her.

She and Rong Xin have already fallen into a quagmire and it is difficult to get out. Is she going to drag Ajing into it again?

If the situation was not right, Yun Qin would rather give Ajing the chance to leave the palace than let her get hurt.
