Chapter 406: Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, protecting Xiaosi

With a meaningful gaze, he swept over Lu Si's delicate but lifeless face, Gong Zhaohui's eyes moved, and then he glanced at the burning eyes of the queen in front of him, and his heart moved, and he understood a little.

After a little silence, Gong Zhaohui slowly raised his lips, a gentle smile bloomed on his face, and he spoke slowly, with an obvious sense of patience.

"Since I saved the queen, I am kind to the royal family, and I naturally want to repay her well."

"Just do what the queen says, I'm all right."

"As for the sister of this little palace maid"

After a little silence, a thoughtful look appeared on his face, and Gong Zhaohui looked at the queen, revealing a faint sense of doubt.

"Does the queen know where that woman is now?"

"In the palace or somewhere else?"

"Father, mother."

At this moment, a clear voice came from behind the two, pulling back their thoughts.

Then, Gong Linghua's slender and upright figure came to the two, leaned down at the two, and saluted respectfully.

With a gentle "um", Gong Zhaohui waved his hand casually and said with a smile:

"Excuse me."

"Thank you, Father."

Gong Linghua stood up straight and bowed slightly at the queen's inquiring face.

"Queen Mother, the person you asked your son to check has a result."

Hearing this, the queen's eyes lit up, the gloomy color condensed between her eyebrows and eyes also dissipated a lot, and her voice was a little brisker, and her soft voice carried an obvious sense of anxiety.

"Say it."

Gently answering "Okay", Gong Linghua came to the table, reached out and poured a cup of tea, handed it to the queen, and slowly spoke:

"Green Si has a sister who is two years younger than her, named Xiaosi."

"The two were originally the daughters of a farmer in Shishe Town, Dongchao, but one year, there were robbers there, and the farmer and his wife were killed, leaving only a pair of sisters."

"According to their father's wishes, the two sisters came to the imperial capital to look for their relatives, but they were blocked out of the door and refused to recognize their relatives."

"After that, as an elder sister, Lu Si sold herself to the palace to earn some money for her sister, so that she could live in peace in the imperial capital."

Saying that, Gong Linghua paused, observed the queen's face, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke again.

"It's just that Xiaosi was still young at the time, didn't have much experience in the world, and was very considerate of her sister, and she didn't want her sister to work too hard, so she was deceived and sold"

After another pause, Gong Linghua hesitated for a moment again, looked at the queen's urging gaze, and finally sighed and spoke helplessly.

"Sold to Yicui Building."

Suddenly, a crisp voice sounded.

Following the sound, I saw that the queen knocked over the tea cup in her hand, and the hot tea was poured on the back of her hand, rising bursts of water vapor, but she seemed to be unaware of it, all the expressions on her face froze, and the flickering light at the bottom of her eyes was also extinguished.

"Queen!"

Gong Zhaohui exclaimed in surprise, hurriedly stretched out his hand, put his big palm on the back of the queen's hand, and used his spiritual power, gently easing the place that was drenched by the tea, his brows furrowed tightly, and his face was a little anxious.

Her eyes moved, the queen came back to her senses, glanced at Gong Zhaohui on her side, hooked her lips slightly, and said softly:

"Your Majesty, the concubine is fine."

After speaking, she took her eyes away from Gong Zhaohui and looked at Gong Linghua in front of her, the queen took a deep breath, her voice was a lot lower, with a strange calmness.

"You say, that Lu Si's sister Xiao Si is now in Yicui Building?"

"That's right."

Nodding, Gong Linghua pondered a little and slowly spoke:

"Xiao Si has a good talent in dance, and now he has a place in Yicui Building."

"The queen mother should also know that Yicuilou also has the rules of Yicuilou, a dancing girl like Xiaosi, there, she only sells her art and does not sell herself."

"Moreover, Yicui Building has a deep heritage, and no one will make trouble there."

Her hands trembled a few times, and the queen raised her eyes, her eyes a little illusory, as if she was talking to herself.

"Can you go and check, according to age, when should Green Si be released from the palace?"

Hearing this, after a pause, Gong Linghua's voice was a little lower, the hand in his sleeve slowly tightened, and he spoke in a deep voice.

"Two months later."

"Two months later"

muttered softly, her eyes trembled, and the queen withdrew her hand from Gong Zhaohui's palm, with a tired look on her face, and bowed slightly at Gong Zhaohui.

"Your Majesty, the concubine is a little tired, so she went to rest first."

"Okay."

Nodding, Gong Zhaohui sighed, glanced at Na Lu Si, and softened his voice, with a soothing meaning.

"You can go and rest in peace, I will let people clean up the green thoughts, you don't have to worry."

Hearing this, the queen's body shook, raised her eyes and glanced at Gong Zhaohui, hooked her lips slightly, opened a faint smile, and nodded.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern."

With a gentle "um", Gong Zhaohui smiled gently, and said with a smile:

"Go and rest."

Gently stroked her sleeves, the queen leaned over slightly, and said softly, "The concubine retires", then turned around and left here without the slightest hesitation.

From beginning to end, the queen didn't look at Lu Si again, as if she didn't care anymore.

It's just that the hands in her sleeves that are constantly trembling reveal her suppressed emotions at the moment.

It's not that I don't care.

I'm very concerned.

However, in front of this emperor, whom the people feared, she couldn't show too much concern and concern.

In the palace, without any interpersonal connection, she can sit firmly in the position of the master of the harem, and the queen is naturally well aware of the rules of the palace.

Or rather, the rules that accompany the king.

Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, this sentence is naturally not a joke.

In the palace, the emperor who is high above is always the most powerful, and everyone, regardless of their status, needs to be cautious, and if they are not careful, it will be the end of no return.

Therefore, now, she can only leave like this, and she can't look at Lu Si again.

Only in this way can we not arouse the vigilance of His Majesty, let Lu Si'an be born and buried, and protect Xiaosi.

This is the truth that she, as a queen, knows very well.

On the layers of skirts, there were dots of blood scattered, and with the queen's footsteps, they brushed across the cold jade ground, as if they had bloomed with gorgeous and splendid peonies, showing her noble status.

Step by step, the queen stepped out of this hall and walked towards her bedroom, her eyebrows were slightly moist, but her figure was strangely firm.

There is not the slightest flaw.

Looking at the queen's steady steps, Gong Zhaohui's eyes moved, as if he thought of something, the corners of his mouth moved, as if he wanted to say something, he muttered a little, but he didn't say anything.

Sighing softly, Gong Zhaohui looked at Gong Linghua and said softly:

"According to your mother's orders, settle this palace maid well."
