The Love Imagination System

Section 37: A Vengeance

To this day, there are already fifteen palace aunts who came to King Changle's mansion. However, they always go home without bringing any results. They actually got into trouble because they had been unable to discipline Princess Consort Changle for days.

The Inner Palace Division had already reported to Consort Sun's Dowager and Empress Dowager Ming, and the lords had let them return.

Qingyi laughed in satisfaction as the old aunts finally gave up on her. In the end, he still won. Xiao Junjie could not make it fall, Qingyi would instead fly higher and higher each time the man caught her. Qingyi's peaceful days in the western courtyard had returned to him.

“Progres groove has reached forty-five percent. Sir, soon you will succeed,” Yinghao said. Now the panda so often presents himself and often play with the waiter.

“Just running half has made me miserable.”

Qingyi stretched her stiff muscles. His legs were spread out and he laid his body in the recliner while enjoying the morning sun. Not to forget, he also wore sunglasses taken from the dimensional space. Crisp and savory snacks stored on the side table, equipped with a glass of fresh drinks.

His mood got better after learning of the punishment given to the prime minister. After the court broke up, the prime minister was summoned to the emperor's study. He was scolded and rebuked severely by Emperor Baili.

In addition, Emperor Baili also lowered the order of confinement and forbade the prime minister to attend court hearings and palace meetings to an unspecified time limit. His salary will not be given for a year.

Qingyi did not protest against the punishment. Good, he thought. If the prime minister is punished at once, the story is not exciting.

Although Emperor Baili only charged him with obstruction of work and did not mention attempted murder, it did not matter. Qingyi herself would punish him later.

“Your Highness, Dowager Consort Sun asked you to enter the palace,” said the maid. Qingyi opened her glasses to confirm who had just spoken.

“Now?”

“Ya, Your Highness.”

Yinghao's ears suddenly moved. The little panda jumped into Qingyi's lap.

“Master, there is a new mission that has been active. Go meet Consort Dowager Sun and earn her trust!”

“I think my in-laws are looking for trouble because I made the aunts of the palace miserable.”

Qingyi was forced to fulfill her vocation as it was related to the mission. All of them he also wanted to see how vast the imperial palace was. The palace maid who knew of his arrival immediately took him to the imperial garden.

There, several widows of concubines from the previous two generations of emperors gathered together with Consort Dowager Sun. They were not very old even though their husband was the previous two emperors.

Qingyi's eyes squinted as she caught the half-old woman she hated the most. Grand Lady Gao sat among the concubine widows, along with several other noble mistresses. Instantly his mood was bad. This was not an ordinary palace entrance request, but a banquet that was held without telling him.

“Princess Changle has arrived. Please sit down,” said Dowager Consort Sun.

All eyes were on him. Grand Madam Gao also greeted him, but with a hateful look.

“Mistress Sun, if not mistaken, you sent your servant to ask me to enter the palace. I really did not expect if the request turned into a banquet,” Qingyi said.

Consort Dowager Sun was surprised, but he hid it by changing the subject. This daughter-in-law was unexpected.

“Ah, it happens to be spring soon. The view of the end of winter always surprises the eyes,” said Consort Dowager Sun.

“Then, I thank you for your invitation.”

Everyone who was there could not hide his surprise. How could a girl who was raised without affection, whose eighteen years of life were spent miserably have such an elegant temperament like this?

They did not see any fear or doubt in Qingyi's eyes, and they only found a trace of courage that was engraved clearly in those eyes of revulsion.

Big Lady Gao was getting restless. Last time, the girl had made her daughter fall apart. I don't know what he'll do when he finds out he's here. He looked at Qingyi naggingly. Qingyi ignored him, then drank her tea slowly. All eyes were on him.

“What dog on your lap is your pet, Princess Empress?” ask a woman.

Qingyi looked up, looking at the woman from top to bottom. From her stature and appearance, that woman must have been Empress Dowager Ming or Empress Dowager, mother of Emperor Baili.

“Your Majesty, this animal is not a dog. She is a panda,” Qingyi replied. Empress Dowager Ming seemed surprised that Qingyi knew who she was.

“Panda? Why did I just hear it?”

“That's because this animal is the only one in this world,” Qingyi said.

“Can you let me touch it?”

Yinghao's ears moved a sign in agreement. Then, Qingyi carried him and thrust him to Empress Dowager Ming.

Yinghao immediately jumped onto her lap, then snuggled comfortably in Empress Dowager Ming's arms. Qingyi gave a small smile, looking at Yinghao who was deliberately stealing the attention and taking advantage of the opportunity.

“Looks like him like you, Your Highness.”

“Ah, she is very cute and her fur is very soft.”

As Empress Dowager Ming was petrifying Yinghao's head, Emperor Baili came with Baili Qingchen. Everyone greeted with a smile on the face, except for Qingyi. Emperor Baili was a little surprised when that brash girl was here. Baili Qingchen also stared at him for a while before she walked over to her mother.

“Because Princess Empress Changle is here, how about you serve tea to Dowager Consort Sun?” emperor Baili told Qingyi.

Serving tea? Qingyi knew very well that the intention was not just to serve ordinary tea. But also with art. Qingyi could not play the art of brewing tea. Does he have to present it with a sword dance? It feels a bit embarrassing. Emperor Baili must have deliberately made it difficult for him to take revenge.

“How, Princess Empress?” the Emperor Baili. Qingyi looked at him sharply.

Suddenly Baili Qingchen stood up and interrupted Emperor Baili's words.

“Your Majesty, everyone knows that Madam Zhao is just a concubine without a good background. Well, certainly before his identity was verified. During that period, it was impossible for the Prime Minister's wife to teach him. Please Your Majesty don't embarrass him,” he said.

Qingyi clucked in heart. This Baili Qingchen defended him or intentionally angered him?

“True too. Princess Consort Changle has definitely not been taught good ethics.”

Is this even included in the ethics lesson? Qingyi asked inwardly.

“Didn't it just serve tea? Why is it made such a hassle. But, speaking of ethics, doesn't Big Lady Gao know it more clearly than anyone?” sela Qingyi's. This time, he was really upset.

Big Madam Gao was speechless. Her face flushed. Damn, this girl purposely humiliated me, he thought. Qingyi walked up to Consort Sun's table, then crouched down.

He did some strange moves before pouring his tea into the cup. All eyes cannot see his every move. Baili Qingchen was also the same, she was precisely the one who took her most seriously.

“I am a person who attaches great importance to efficiency. I couldn't waste much time doing something that could eventually be done in a more practical way. Isn't that so, Mrs Sun?”

His words implied that he did not like the grubby. Brewing tea that brews tea only, what to do with the hassle. In the end, the tea is also drunk.

Although this violated customary customs, but Qingyi did not really want to ruin it. He was just trying to save himself.

Consort Dowager Sun smiled at the words of her daughter-in-law. Rarely would a woman dare to speak her mind openly. He drank Qingyi's serving tea, and felt its fragrance slowly.

There is no difference between those who use art and also directly. Either because of his good mood, or because of the girl in front of him.

“Your Highness, my Princess Empress is not feeling well. I'll take him home to the mansion,” beg Baili Qingchen. He pulled Qingyi's hand, and made the girl look at him questioningly.

"You are sick, Baili Qingchen," Qingyi whispered.

“Go home if you don't want to be complicated again.”

Understanding with Baili Qingchen's intention, Qingyi then nodded. He also did not want to linger in this palace of many women.

Moreover, he did not want to see the annoying face of Emperor Baili. The threat Qingyi had given her before seemed to still be lacking. Next time, he would threaten her even more cruelly.

“Because King Changle asked for it, I will not fight. Then, I'll excuse you.”

Qingyi and Baili Qingchen left the imperial garden. Consort Dowager Sun and Empress Dowager Ming looked at each other, then both smiled together.

The banquet still continued even though the main role was already gone. Emperor Baili held back angrily, then left the imperial garden a few minutes after King Changle and his empress left.

Yinghao who was still in Empress Dowager Ming's lap muttered resignedly, “Tuan diabolically. He forgot me!”
