Reborn to be the Queen

"Empress, this Mrs Liu and Princess Wangfei are so close. I'm afraid there's going to be bad things in the future." Just as Destined Women left, Yin Lin couldn't help but say.

"It's fine." Xiao Ruyue smiled, as if she did not care at all.

Towards this young but extremely shrewd Empress, Yin Lin had never been able to see through her.

Sometimes, she even felt that the person living inside the empress wasn't a teenage girl, but an elder who had gone through many vicissitudes of life.

Just as they were talking, a person walked out from the rear hall. It was a Liangqiu Yayin dressed in extravagant clothes.

Wasn't she wearing the clothes of the youngest of the women who had just left?

Could it be the same?

"Sister Ya Yin, thank you for your hard work." Seeing her coming over, Xiao Ruyue got up and welcomed her.

The teacup in his hand was handed over.

"It's nothing." Liangqiu Yayin accepted the cup of tea. She was most likely not thirsty, and only took a small sip.

"No one saw me when I came back," he said.

The smile in Xiao Ruyue's eyes grew stronger, "Thank you very much."

"Could it be that the person from before was Miss Ya Yin?"

Seeing the scene in front of her, Lu Yi suddenly understood something and covered her mouth in surprise.

Liangqiu Yayin revealed her usual calm smile.

By not denying it, he had already tacitly agreed.

Yin Lin felt that there was something amiss with the lady this afternoon. She never expected her to be Lady Ya Yin.

She knew the lady as well, but she couldn't find any clues about her.

"It's really amazing." After a while, Yin Lin sincerely praised.

Liangqiu Yayin nodded to her lightly, then placed the tea cup on the side of the table.

"I'll go back and change my clothes. I don't want others to see it. "

Xiao Ruyue nodded her head and quickly entered the rear hall.

When Cai Yin returned with the food, he did not even see her shadow.

"Empress, see what good things this servant has brought back for you." Cai Yin raised the food box high up and held it in front of Xiao Ruyue like it was a treasure.

"What's that good stuff?" Xiao Ruyue looked at her and asked.

Cai Yin smiled as she revealed her white teeth, "This was given to me by a young eunuch just now. She said that His Majesty specifically ordered the kitchen to make these supplements for you. The young eunuch met me at the door and let me bring him in. "

Xiao Ruyue heard and glanced at Yin Lin.

Yin Lin also noticed that something was off, she took the food box from Cai Yin and placed it on the table, then opened it.

Inside was a cup of bird's nest, a top-grade blood swallow.

Opening the soup cup, he could smell the fragrance wafting towards him.

"It is indeed a good item." Xiao Ruyue took a closer look and faintly smiled, "To use such a precious item against me, I am somewhat flattered."

To think that there were so many people in the palace who wanted her life.

It was really hard to sit in a position like the empress.

A single mistake could cost him his life. How dangerous.

Cai Yin was startled, as if she did not understand.

Yin Lin glared at her unhappily. "You almost caused the empress's death!"

Lu Yi also understood what was going on and looked at Xue Yan in surprise. "Someone poisoned this thing?"

Yin Lin didn't say a word. She retrieved a needle from the box that she carried with him and probed inside the swallow's nest. The silver needle immediately turned black.

"I, I didn't, I …" Cai Yin's face was filled with fear, as he simply did not know what had happened.

"Empress, this servant will order someone to chase after them right now!" Yin Lin was about to leave.

But he was stopped by Xiao Ruyue: "If you're going to chase after him now, then go ahead, there's no need."

Yin Lin also knew that the Empress's words made sense, so she came back.

When he saw Cai Yin's face, he burst out in anger, "Look at you, it's all your fault! Did you know that you brought a cup of poison to the Empress? "

"I … I really don't have anything … I don't know … This is …"

"Don't blame her." In contrast to Yin Lin's rage, Xiao Ruyue was actually calm.

"Empress, don't protect her. How long had this girl been in the palace? She didn't even understand this much. "If this blood swallow was really prepared by His Majesty, it would have been delivered in the afternoon and would not have been sent out at such a late hour."

"Also, the things that His Majesty has given to the Empress have always been personally handled by the Eunuch Fang, the Inner Court Steward, and the Shang Palace of the Shang Gong. Where would you get a little eunuch to gift them to you, and why would you hand them over to someone else so you can leave in a hurry without even seeing the face of the Empress?"

Yin Lin was both angry and disappointed.

Xiao Ruyue did not speak, because everything Yin Lin said was correct.

"She didn't even know who the person was before daring to casually bring the item in. This girl is truly lacking in judgement!"

As Yin Lin said this, she couldn't help but roll her eyes at Cai Yin again.

Cai Yin's expression changed from being confused to panicking. Now, it was as white as a piece of paper, and her legs were weak as she sat on the ground.

"Esteemed Empress, I really didn't do it on purpose. I didn't expect that with your forgiveness, esteemed Empress would spare my life!"

The more he cried, the more furious he became. Tears streamed down his face.

Xiao Ruyue couldn't stand people crying like that. She glanced at Yin Lin and then looked at Lu Yi.

He ordered Lu Yi, "Take Cai Yin away, and you might think that I've mistreated her."

"Your Highness, please spare my life. This servant will not dare to do so again." Your servant won't dare to do it again, esteemed empress. "Please spare my life!"

Cai Yin cried even more miserably.

Xiao Ruyue could not help but frown.

"Don't cry, the Empress wants you to rest!" Yin Lin's face stiffened, she was extremely fierce.

Cai Yin was so scared that she forgot to cry.

Embarrassed, Lu Yi helped her away.

Xiao Ruyue didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she heard Yin Lin mumbling to herself from behind her. "I really can't understand why His Majesty would leave such a thoughtless girl to invite the Phoenix Palace.

"A mature and steady girl might not be as useful as this heartless girl." Xiao Ruyue said indifferently.

Yin Lin was startled upon hearing this.

Xiao Ruyue turned around, her cherry lips slightly raised, "Yin Lin, you need to understand that mature and steady ones are definitely smooth and mature. And this heartless girl, everything will be hanging on her face. If it was you, would you want all the people around you to be made up of loaches, or would you like the loach and the little white rabbit to coexist? "

Yin Lin didn't know what to say for a moment.

The atmosphere was somewhat delicate.

"Who do you think sent this?" Xiao Ruyue cleverly changed the topic.

Yin Lin shook her head, "There are too many people talking in the palace, and things are also complicated. However, someone who could use such a precious item was not an ordinary person. Could it be the Imperial Consort Ye? "

"Nope." Xiao Ruyue was very sure, "This kind of thing that doesn't require any technique won't be her masterpiece. As for who they are, no one knows. "

"Then why didn't the Empress ask Cai Yin just now? As long as we draw pictures and draw pictures, even though there are many people in the palace, they would all be recorded in the register and would definitely be able to be found. "

"It's useless even if you see it clearly. So what if the other party refuses to acknowledge it even at the cost of his life?" Xiao Ruyue was not too sure about this.

"Besides, I'm the empress. Somehow, I took a cup of bird's nest and said that someone intentionally poisoned me. What do you think others would think?"

Yin Lin was silent for a moment, "Yes, Empress's thoughts were well thought out. However, the Empress could not sit still and wait for death, so this person still needed to be investigated. "For such a big matter, this servant must report it to the emperor."

"There's no harm in reporting it to His Majesty, but there's no need to rush the investigation."

Xiao Ruyue nodded, she had no objections to reporting this point to Yuwen He.

Yin Lin revealed a look of doubt.

Xiao Ruyue's watery eyes rippled like spring water, and her smile became much deeper. "Whoever wants my life, if they miss a single strike, they will definitely find another opportunity. They're more anxious than we are. "

Yin Lin suddenly realized.

Liangqiu Yayin came out from behind and when her gaze fell on the Blood Swallow Cup, she couldn't help but frown.

"You have to be careful from now on." She said this to Xiao Ruyue sincerely and sincerely.

"It's fine. My life is very tough. Just don't worry about those people."

Xiao Ruyue's tone of voice was light, as if it had nothing to do with him.

Soon, it was time for the meal.

It was unknown why Yuwen He had come here in advance, but he naturally did not dare to hide the matter of someone poisoning him, and he reported everything to Yuwen He.

"Who exactly is so daring!?" How dare you! "

Yuwen He's face sunk as he slammed his palm on the table.

The table shook a few times, but fortunately it did not fall apart.

"Your Majesty, don't be angry too. Who the other party was, at the moment, had no clue. The matter of saving Xiao Shang Shu is more important. " Xiao Ruyue consoled his in a gentle tone.

The anger on Yuwen He's face lessened.

On the surface, Xiao Jingyu was the Minister of Rites and was in charge of one of the six divisions, but in truth, in terms of connections, he was far from being as good as Department of the Civil Service, the Department of Revenue, the Department of War and the others.

It was precisely because Xiao Jingyu had a clean foundation that he had to be promoted again and again.

And through the few times that Yuwen He had purposely revealed his political affairs to her, Xiao Ruyue had also gradually understood that even though Jing Yu seemed like a powerless and useless fool, he was actually Yuwen He's capable servant.

His existence, was precisely searching for the true pillar of support for Yuwen He.

Therefore, it was not rare for Jing Yu to become Yuwen Chenglian's target.

Xiao Jingyu, Yuwen He had to save him.

Not only to save, but to let him come out clean and untainted.

"Min Er's words are reasonable. Jing Yu is a talented person, but because of such a small matter, he has changed his mind. We are not willing to part with him." Yuwen He touched Xiao Ruyue's hands and pulled her into his embrace.

Xiao Ruyue was caught off guard, and cried out in a low voice, but it was quickly blocked by his lips.

"There's, there's still Yin Lin." Xiao Ruyue awkwardly wanted to push him away.

Yuwen He had taken the wrong medicine.

Unexpectedly, Yuwen He's eyes landed on Yin Lin, and without saying a word, Yin Lin slipped away.

He really ran fast.

Yuwen He revealed a satisfied smile, "No one is bothering me now."

Seeing that his kiss was about to fall again, Xiao Ruyue hurriedly called out to him, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

"What's wrong?" Yuwen He hesitated for a moment and then stopped.

He rubbed his head, revealing a vexed and vexed expression, "This Emperor feels like he has forgotten something throughout today, but I can't remember anything at all. But when I see you, I can't help but want to get close to you. "

Xiao Ruyue, "…"
