Chapter 3: Acting in full

"Your Majesty, this is about the Empress and the heir, how dare we be disrespectful? Doctor Yu has already been invited. We are useless, and the Chunxi Palace is in chaos. Your Majesty, please go and take a look to calm us down. Please, Your Majesty."

Xu An, with his head down, couldn't help but look at Yun Qin. He didn't understand why the little girl, who had just been so well-behaved, was crying again.

He went to see the emperor quietly, but met the emperor's emotionless eyes. He suddenly realized, "Why are you crying? Look at you, you are such a loser!"

After saying this, he went to see the emperor again.

"It's really useless." The emperor commented without any rise or fall in his tone.

Xu An reacted immediately and raised his voice, "Someone change clothes for His Majesty."

Yun Qin immediately leaned over and cried, "Thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you, Your Majesty." She looked like she was just about to burst into tears.

Huo Jinchi pushed away Lady Liu who was about to stand up to get dressed. Listening to the opera-like crying, he sneered and for the first time looked straight at the palace maid squatting on the ground. The first thing he saw was the strands of hair hanging on her cheeks, which gently brushed against her jade-like delicate skin.

Feeling the gaze falling on her, Yun Qin tried hard to control her body's reaction, but still couldn't help but shrink her shoulders.

It seems like it was overacted.

Huo Jinchi's smile deepened. He had never noticed that there was such an interesting maid in Huipin's palace before. Just as he was about to ask her name, he felt a slender body approaching, and his smile disappeared instantly.

"Your Majesty..." Concubine Liu called out hesitantly. When she was about to say something else, she met a pair of emotionless eyes and swallowed the words back instantly.

"Your Majesty, I will help you get dressed." Lady Liu forced a smile and changed her tone.

Seeing that Lady Liu was interested, Huo Jinchi regained his smile and said, "After the court session, I will accompany my beloved concubine for breakfast."

"Your Majesty, I am waiting for you." Lady Liu immediately smiled charmingly, and her hands moved more willingly.

Yun Qin lowered her head a little more when she heard the voice. The emperor actually used Concubine Liu as a shield very well.

She couldn't even protect herself, so what right did she have to sympathize with others? Yun Qin laughed at herself in her heart, gathered her thoughts, and tried hard to be a transparent person.

Even though she was almost curled up into a ball, she was still very conspicuous in the inner hall, especially in the eyes of Lady Liu. She was like a thorn in her eye, and she glared at her fiercely.

Especially when she looked at how her beauty could not be concealed even when she lowered her head, one felt that the Chunxi Palace had malicious intentions. The Su woman was now pregnant with the heir of the emperor, yet she still wanted to use beautiful young palace maids to win his favor. She was really scheming!

"Your Majesty, please get up!"

At Xu An's shout, the emperor stepped out of the inner hall. Yun Qin also stood up and walked out quickly among the palace maids in front of the emperor, not daring to stay in the inner hall for even a second longer.

Everything seemed to be going smoothly. In fact, it took no more than five minutes from the time Yun Qin came in to the time the emperor started driving. This also shows how much the emperor values ​​Huipin.

Yunqin only hopes that Huipin will stop doing that and give birth to the child smoothly. Will she still be honored and favored in the future?

As soon as they left Yukang Palace, Yunqin broke away from the accompanying team and took a shortcut to Chunxi Palace.

The first was to send the good news back so that they could prepare to welcome the emperor. The second was to let them play the whole show and not wait until the emperor went there with a heavy heart, only to see their overjoyed looks and then turn around and leave in anger.

She walked quickly, so she naturally didn't know that after she left, Huo Jinchi and Xu An asked about her.

"What about the maids?"

It seemed like a casual remark, but Xu An's heart skipped a beat. He quickly looked around before replying, "Your Majesty is not here. I should go back to Chunxi Palace to report the news."

The heavy curtains prevented him from seeing the emperor's expression. He only heard him utter "hmm" without any emotion, as if he was just asking a casual question.

But based on Xu An's understanding of the emperor, when would he ask about the whereabouts of a palace maid? That pretty little face flashed through his mind, and he immediately understood something.

Needless to say, everyone in Chunxi Palace was surprised to learn that Yunqin had really invited the emperor over, and chaos ensued.

"Rongzhi, Rongzhi, hurry up and get me some clothes. No, no, I have to put on makeup first."

"Yes!" Rong Zhi hurriedly opened the makeup box.

Yun Qin was standing by and was speechless at the sight of Rong Xin busying herself with a silly look on her face. She couldn't help but ask, "How can the master put on makeup when he's not feeling well?"

Her words made everyone look at her. Yun Qin, who had never stood up in front of her master, was a little nervous. She pinched her fingertips to steady her voice and continued, "The emperor is on his way. It's too late for the master to put on makeup. It's better to change into clothes that look better."

"You don't have a say here..."

Rongzhi was about to scold, but Huipin, because she had invited the emperor, had more trust in her, so she didn't get angry when she heard it. She just stroked her pale face and interrupted Rongzhi.

"How can I meet the Emperor like this?"

Yunqin glanced at Rongzhi before looking at Huipin.

There was a reason why Huipin was favored continuously after entering the palace. She had thin eyebrows, fair cheeks, rosy lips, and a well-proportioned figure. She was like a willow swaying in the wind, delicate and timid, and made people feel pity for her at first sight.

Although she looks a little sick now, it does not detract from her appearance at all, but only makes people feel more pity for her.

"Your Majesty is naturally beautiful. Even without makeup, she is still as beautiful as a kingdom." Yun Qin knew that she couldn't just keep coaxing her. She continued with some trepidation, "Your Majesty came here late at night, so he must be tired. The more homely your Majesty is, the better."

Huipin was not stupid. Upon hearing this, she stroked her belly and smiled slightly, "You are right. Now that I am pregnant with your Majesty's child, the more homely it is, the better."

After she finished speaking, she raised her eyes to look at Yunqin, "Your name is Yunqin, right? You are pretty and have a nice name. You should serve in the palace from now on."

"Thank you, Madam."

Yun Qin's anxiety disappeared as she felt Rong Zhi's gaze and glared back at her without any hesitation.

Rong Zhi obviously didn't expect her to be so bold. Just as she was about to scold her, Huipin interrupted her, "Rong Zhi, go get me some clothes."

As she hurriedly changed her clothes, Xiao Dezi came running in, "Your Majesty, the Emperor is almost at the palace gate."

"Go and welcome him quickly." Huipin did not stand up, but said to Yunqin: "I am not feeling well, you take people to welcome the emperor."

Yun Qin didn't have time to think about it and led his people out.
