Chapter 41



I vomited and stole a glance at Li Rui's reaction. His face turned pale and blue, as if he had swallowed a fly. I almost laughed like crazy. You provoked me yourself, don't blame me for being cruel!

"Qingya, you..." Li Rui took a deep breath, as if trying to maintain his gentle and elegant image, but in the end he still lost and said through gritted teeth, "What do you want to say?"

I suppressed my laughter and blinked innocently: "What do you mean by that, Your Highness? I just suddenly remembered some unpleasant things, which affected my appetite. Your Highness, don't think too much about it."

"Not so good things?" Li Rui narrowed his eyes and stared at me dangerously. "What do you mean?"

"Alas, although the scenery of this imperial garden is beautiful, there are also mosquitoes," I deliberately changed the subject, casually swatting at the non-existent mosquitoes on my skirt, and glancing at her out of the corner of my eye, "Your Highness, don't you think this is the case?"

Li Rui's face became more and more ugly, but he seemed to realize that this was not a good place to talk, so he took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said with a fake smile: "Qingya is right, I have important things to deal with today, so I will not accompany you anymore."

Having said that, he turned away, and the one behind him fled in panic!

I looked at his fleeing back and couldn't help laughing. Li Rui usually pretends to be an immortal, but I didn't expect this to happen!

"Qingya, are you okay?"

A familiar voice came from behind me. I didn't need to turn around to know that it was my precious dad, Lin Ziru.

"Dad, why are you here?" I turned around with a smile and took his arm. "Why did you come to the Imperial Garden instead of enjoying your life in your mansion?"

"You girl, how dare you say that!" Lin Ziru glared at me in feigned anger, "How can your father not be worried when you made such a fuss in the court today?"

"Oh, Dad, don't worry," I waved my hands nonchalantly, "I know what's going on with my daughter, nothing will happen."

"You are so smart and have your own ideas. Even your father can't control you." Lin Ziru shook his head helplessly, but his eyes were full of doting.

"Okay, okay, I get it. I'll be more careful next time, okay?" I said coquettishly with a smile.

Lin Ziru was amused by me and reached out to touch my forehead: "You are really good at making your father happy."

"Of course, don't you see whose daughter I am!" I said proudly.

"Okay, stop being so rude," Lin Ziru smiled and shook her head, "It's getting late, we should go back home."

"Okay!"

I was holding Lin Ziru's arm and preparing to leave the Imperial Garden when I suddenly heard a commotion not far away. Curious, I looked in the direction of the sound and saw a group of palace maids and eunuchs escorting a man in a bright yellow dragon robe slowly approaching.

The man was tall and handsome, with an imposing manner without even getting angry. He was none other than the current saint - Li Heng.

My heart skipped a beat and I thought to myself: Oops, why did it have to happen at this time?

Li Heng also saw Lin Ziru and me, and narrowed his eyes slightly, with a complicated look in his eyes.

"Lord Lin," 놛 said in a deep voice, "you are here too."

"Your Majesty, your humble servant, is here to pay his respects." Lin Ziru bowed hastily.

"No need to be polite." Li Heng said calmly, but his eyes were fixed on me. "This is..."

"Your Majesty, this is my daughter Qingya." Lin Ziru introduced quickly.

"Oh?" Li Heng raised his eyebrows, his eyes flashing with interest, "I heard that Lord Lin's concubine is a wonderful woman."

I felt uneasy in my heart. Could it be that this old fox suspected me of something?

"Your Majesty is too kind," I lowered my head quickly, showing a look of trepidation, "I am just a woman, how can I deserve such praise from your Majesty?"

"Haha," Li Heng chuckled, "Miss Lin, there's no need to be so modest. I'd like to see what's so special about you today."

My heart skipped a beat, knowing that this level would be difficult to pass...
