Chapter 553 Queen Qin Knows And Can Recognize Precious Objects
Oi! I am an article!
“Haha, try Emperor guess?” The Queen Mother was already 60 years old, seeing the suspicious gaze of the Emperor, she could not help but to prank around while still smiling kindly.
Looking at the Queen Mother who was so happy, Ji Xingyun deliberately frowned and pretended to think hard: “There is such a familiar taste in this yogurt, but I can't call what it is. For sure I seemed to have eaten it but I forgot.”
Oi! I am an article!
“Emperor, you are so smart that you can forget it too? Then I will tell you right away, what is added to this yogurt is a squeeze of lemon water, so the taste can be so fresh and delicious.”
“Lemon? What's that thing? Why haven't I heard of it?”
“Emperor, Empress Dowager's intent is sour fruit.”
The servant aunt who was at the side could not bear to see the Emperor being colonized, so she immediately helped the Emperor. After all, no matter how majestic and sacred the Emperor was, but the Emperor was still a child growing up under their eyes. In their eyes, they were amazed and also affectionate towards the Emperor.
Oi! I am an article!
Ji Xingyun was silent for a moment and said: “A sour fruit? Acidic fruit award from Nan Dynasty?”
“Ya!”
“It is fitting that I feel this sense is so familiar.” When a little eunuch peeled this fruit for him today, Ji Xingyun actually felt that the fruit was extremely sour, if not for the Nan Dynasty ambassador being watching over her, then he must have gone berserk and cursed because of it.
Dare to give such an acidic fruit to be made a tribute, completely not looking at him as the Emperor of the Qi Country.
Ji Xingyun stared at the Queen Mother unexpectedly, herself saying with a half-surprised expression: “How did the Queen Mother know?”
“This is all thanks to Queen Qin, not only did she tell me how to make it, she also told me that this lemon has properties to whiten skin, lower heat, reduce phlegm, reduce phlegm, increases body fluids and also increases appetite. Regarding whitening the skin, I am not too concerned with it, but the other properties are really proven. I ate it recently, and I don't feel the weather is dry. Emperor, you bury yourself in government affairs all day long, you better ask the people in the Palace to try it, it's really efficacious.
After listening to the words of the Queen Mother, Ji Xingyun daydreamed for quite a long time.
When Ji Xingyun regained her senses, the first sentence she uttered was: “Queen Qin who taught the Queen Mother?”
The Empress Dowager ignored the deep meaning and doubt that flashed in Ji Xingyun's eyes, she simply said flatly: “Yes, all those sour fruits that you dislike are discarded and given to her, fortunately he was knowledgeable and could recognize valuable objects, thus making them useful. Really oppress him a lot, luckily Queen Qin is a roomy-hearted person, she never complains to me at all.”
This sentence was clearly a plea sentence for Qin Ruchen, Ji Xingyun was not deaf, she could hear it. But Ji Xingyun did not say anything, her expression only became more dark.
After having lunch at Empress Dowager's place, Ji Xingyun then rushed to Lixiang Pavilion.
Ji Xingyun did not know why she had come here, but her heart told her that she had to meet the woman.
The days when Qin Ruchen was released from the Cold Palace, his method was actually used almost thoroughly, every utterance that came out of the mouth of the Queen Mother was completely out of his way, even all the maids and eunuchs in Cian Palace also continuously praised her.
If this continued, perhaps Ji Xingyun would have to let Qin Ruchen stay inside the main palace again due to the pressure from inside and out. If Qin Ruchen re-entered the main Palace that way, then it was not known how many people would suffer.
If Qin Ruchen was still as arrogant and arrogant as before, then he would not be afraid. But now, Qin Ruchen's thought was so meticulous, Ji Xingyun wasn't sure she could deal with such a Qin Ruchen.
