After hearing Yi Ran's words, Tang Youyou remained unmoved. She still lay on the couch on her own and looked at Qing Yu, who came in a hurry.
Qing Yu stammered, "Your Majesty the Queen, just now I heard a lot of people gossiping! They said a lot of bad things about you."
But halfway through her words, she saw Tang Youyou, who already seemed to know, and Yi Ran standing there blankly.
She hesitated and suspected, "Do you already know about it?"
Yi Ran nodded silently. Looking at Qing Yu, who was still blinking in front of her, she said, "I've already told Her Majesty the Queen everything, so Sister Qing Yu, you don't need to be so anxious."
Qing Yu nodded thoughtfully.
At this moment, everyone fell silent, making the whole Qingliang Palace seem lifeless.
In an instant, Tang Youyou slowly got up and walked towards the palace door. Behind her, Qing Yu asked, "Your Majesty the Queen, where are you going?"
Tang Youyou couldn't help but curl her lips slightly and smiled, "I'm going to see the Emperor to apologize."
Apologize?
What was this? She was like a goddess in their hearts. How could she apologize so casually?
Qing Yu said, "Your Majesty the Queen, this matter has nothing to do with you. You can't easily admit your mistake."
But in Tang Youyou's mind, apologizing at this moment was undoubtedly a chance to make Rong Xun completely dislike her. If she didn't go now, when would she?
Thinking of this, she quickly came to the door of the Xingzheng Palace.
When Su Ningde saw Tang Youyou coming in a hurry, he felt a sense of unease in his heart. Why did this little ancestor come again? Did she really take the Xingzheng Palace as a place for playing house?
Su Ningde held back his doubts and put on a smiling face. He asked politely, "Your Majesty the Queen has graced us. May I ask..."
"I'm here to visit the Emperor."
Hearing this, Su Ningde stepped into the palace again. Just as he was about to announce her arrival, Rong Xun spoke first, "Tell me, who is here this time?"
Su Ningde lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said, "It's... Her Majesty the Queen. She thinks the Emperor has been working day and night, so she wants to come and visit you."
Hearing that it was Tang Youyou, the gloom on Rong Xun's face disappeared. With a barely noticeable excitement, he looked at the person outside the door and said, "Let her in."
Only then did Su Ningde dare to lead Tang Youyou into the main hall.
Looking at Rong Xun, who was busy, Tang Youyou slowly walked to his side. The memorials were piled so high that she could hardly see Rong Xun's face.
Tang Youyou said softly, "Your Majesty, I've come to see you."
But Rong Xun remained silent. It was not until Tang Youyou got closer to him that he spoke.
"Why did you come?"
Hearing this, Tang Youyou knelt down on the ground with a thud. She looked up at Rong Xun with a crying voice and said, "Your Majesty, I know my mistake. I've come to the main hall specially to admit my fault. It's all my fault that made the Emperor angry."
Her words made Rong Xun feel rather puzzled. Rong Xun asked, "What did you do?"
Tang Youyou sobbed uncontrollably, crying piteously. She looked innocent and said, "It's all my fault. I kept speculating about the Emperor's will. I thought I knew the Emperor's habits well, but now I realize that I've committed a crime."
Hearing her apology, Rong Xun couldn't help but support his forehead. She and Wen Ruxue really never stopped causing trouble.
However, since the person in front of him was Tang Youyou, he couldn't help but be tolerant.
Rong Xun finally calmed down his mood. His eyes were calm as he said, "You'er, these things of yours don't matter at all in my eyes. If you really know your mistake, then don't make it again next time. I'll always be tolerant of you."
This attitude, this way of speaking, and this statement clearly showed his special favor for her. If Wen Ruxue saw this, she might vomit blood on the spot.
Tang Youyou looked up at him blankly and asked in confusion, "Your Majesty, I've already speculated about the Emperor's will. Why are you still tolerant of me?"
Shouldn't he just send her to the Cold Palace directly?
Seeing that Tang Youyou kept being entangled, Rong Xun had to compromise. He casually said, "Then I'll punish you to grind ink beside me until evening before you can rest."
Grind ink? But she had heard that Wen Ruxue was almost beaten fifty big boards just for being pretentious. But why did everything change when it came to her?
Since it had come to this, Tang Youyou had no choice but to stand beside Rong Xun. She quietly picked up the stone on the table and started to grind the ink. It was not until she felt her hand was tired that she slightly shook her hand to relax her muscles.
Seeing that the little girl finally felt tired, Rong Xun showed a charming smile on his lips. "All right, go and tell Su Ningde to prepare dinner for me. Prepare both sweet and spicy dishes. He knows how to handle it."
After he finished speaking, Tang Youyou went out to give the order. In a short while, the table was filled with a dazzling array of delicious food, including rare delicacies from mountains and seas, and most of them were her favorite.
She looked at Rong Xun in surprise. Rong Xun naturally noticed the little girl's attention. He slowly put down the brush in his hand and walked towards the table.
Looking at the dishes on the table, Rong Xun was slightly satisfied. It seemed that Su Ningde still understood him.
He said, "Since it's already this late, stay and have dinner before you go."
Hearing this, Tang Youyou subconsciously looked outside. It was already getting dark. There would be nothing to eat when she got back, so she simply nodded.
The peach blossom wine in the wine pot on the table was very attractive. Tang Youyou first ate a few mouthfuls of the dishes, then took the peach blossom wine and took a small sip.
Seeing this, Rong Xun reminded her a few more times, "This wine is refreshing but easy to make you drunk. You'd better..."
Before he could finish his words, Tang Youyou had already drunk half a bottle...
Burp～
A loud belch came out. Tang Youyou slumped half - way on the chair. She quietly looked at Rong Xun in front of her, her eyes already blurred.
Suddenly, she laughed loudly and seemed to be muttering something.
"Rong Xun, when will you be more sensible? Wen Ruxue likes you so much. How could you bear to beat her? Don't you like her very much? Then be with her. Why are you pretending?"
After saying that, Tang Youyou suddenly stood up. Because she used too much force, her knee hit the table with a thud. The excruciating pain made her unable to say a word for a long time.
With tears in her eyes, she sat on the ground coquettishly, her eyes full of grievance. "What should I do? Even this table bullies me. What reason do I have to live on? I might as well just die."
Saying this, Tang Youyou staggered towards the dragon bed in the distance.
