The cannon fodder daughter was exiled, she has a system to earn gold

The emperor heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the empress dowager finally leave. It seemed that the princess was fine and it would be better for her to come to the palace less often. He had never been so tired before facing officials in the court who were arguing and even fighting.

Then Xiao Jingyi and Qin Zhongyue followed the Empress Dowager to Ronghua Palace and sat for a while. The Empress Dowager also knew what had happened to the young couple in the palace today. She did not keep them for long and rewarded Qin Zhongyue with a lot of things. After sitting for a while, she let them go back.

As soon as the people left, the old maid Chen who served the Grand Empress Dowager helped her lie down and said, "My queen, didn't you want to invite the prince and his wife to have lunch together?

Why didn't you say anything? "

"The most capable maidservant of the Yin family has passed away, and she is very angry now. Let Xiaoyao and his wife go first, otherwise I will not be able to protect them after dinner because I am too old to stand up.

Originally, Yin hated me for not liking Xiaoyao. If she knew that Xiaoyao and his wife had a meal at my place and stayed for such a long time, wouldn’t that make life even more difficult for the two children?”

Yin was the name that the Grand Empress Dowager privately addressed the Empress Dowager.

"I don't know how many days I have left to live. I can't help Xiaoyao in any way, so I'll try not to hold him back. I owe it to that poor kid."

After the Empress Dowager said these words, she felt even more tired as if a great deal of strength had been taken away from her. She lay down and fell asleep not long after.

Nanny Chen felt very sad to see the Empress Dowager like this. She tucked in the corners of the quilt for her and quietly retreated to a small stool beside to do needlework and watch.

But I was thinking in my heart that the Empress Dowager would definitely live a little longer.

In fact, the health of the Empress Dowager has been getting worse and worse since the late emperor passed away. So has her spirit. She sleeps for eight hours a day, and now it is getting longer and longer, and she can only be awake for three and a half hours a day.

They sought out a trusted imperial physician to see them, who said it was a case of narcolepsy that could not be cured for the time being, and in the end they fell into a deep sleep and could not get up.

Nanny Chen wanted to let Prince Xiaoyao know that perhaps Prince Xiaoyao knew many people and someone might be able to cure the Empress Dowager's narcolepsy, but the Empress Dowager would not let her.

It is said that the child knew that a few years ago, he should have grown up with his father and mother, just like the crown prince. However, due to the selfishness of the Empress Dowager and her struggle with his mother, he was no longer favored by his father and mother.

What made the child most sad was that his mother wanted him killed several times for the throne. In despair, she disfigured herself and asked to leave the palace. From then on, the poor and miserable child no longer had a close relationship with his grandmother.

The Empress Dowager always said that the person she felt most sorry for in this life was Xiao Jingyi.

So now we should try our best not to make things difficult for the child.

Nanny Chen was thinking while doing needlework to pass the time. The small clothes in her hands were obviously made for a newborn baby. They were made of the best natural silk material. There were only two pieces of silk in the palace every year. The Empress Dowager had saved them for the past few years, saying that they were for Prince Xiaoyao.

But after those things happened, the Empress Dowager did not give these things to Xiao Jingyi, mainly because she was afraid that he would not want them.

Now, when the Empress Dowager heard that the prince had a princess, she wanted to give these things to the princess first. But there were too many things she wanted to give away. She had saved up more than a dozen pieces of natural silk fabrics, and gave a few to the princess. She had to make clothes for her great-grandson who was not even born yet with the rest. As a result, she was sleepy every day, so Nanny Chen took over this job.

After leaving the palace, Qin Zhongyue slumped in the carriage in a very ungraceful manner.

"It's really not easy to go to the palace!"

Xiao Jingyi knew what she meant. Just the fact that Nanny Jiang was poisoned to death was enough to tell how dangerous her situation was today. She was almost poisoned to death.

It was just a false alarm for him.

"Are you hungry? Take this to fill your stomach."

Xiao Jingyi suddenly took out an exquisite snack box, and a faint aroma of pastries wafted out of the box.

After spending the whole morning in the palace, Qin Zhongyue was really a little hungry.

Because I had to go to the palace in the morning, I was afraid of eating too much, so I just ate a little bit to fill my stomach. Except for being relatively harmonious with the emperor and the empress, what happened later made me not even drink a sip of water.

I only drank some water at the Empress Dowager's place and didn't dare to eat anything.

I'm so hungry now that I'm almost starving.

"Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?"

Qin Zhongyue took the snack box and opened it. The snacks looked very familiar.

"It's not mine. This is from the side hall. It's edible. Eat it first to fill your stomach. We'll be home soon. Ask the kitchen to make some more of your favorite food."

Seeing that Qin Zhongyueguang didn't move, Xiao Jingyi explained.

Qin Zhongyue then realized that before Xiao Jingyi entered the Hall of Supreme Harmony, he went to a side hall and saw her look of wanting to eat but not wanting to, so he asked the eunuch to pack up all the snacks.

This guy suddenly gave him this trick, and he was a little touched~

wrong!

She felt that Xiao Jingyi, although not very familiar to her, was also a selfish person similar to herself.

Oh, I see. She was probably acting before, and now it's just a reward for her for what happened in the Imperial Garden before.

Humph, you can't just use a few dollars to get by.

As for why it wasn't simply because he liked her, and the eldest among them didn't mention the second, she had never thought about this situation.

I pinched a piece of pink pastry that looks like a plum blossom. It tasted like a cool plum blossom. It was not very sweet, so it was not greasy. It had a delicate texture, but was a bit dry. Overall it was good and quite delicious.

The second piece of cake was a small yellow square-shaped pastry. The pastry was small and exquisite, and one could eat one in one bite. Of course, if it was placed in front of those exquisite ladies, they might have to eat four or five bites of it, but for Qin Zhongyue, one bite was just right.

Well, this is mung bean cake, she could tell it from her taste.

The next piece was white again, "Well, this one is fruity."

As he was eating, when he reached the gate of the palace, Qin Zhongyue found that he had actually eaten most of it.

Forget it, no need to eat lunch, just drink two glasses of water and you’ll be full.

I told you to be greedy!

Xiao Jingyi got off the carriage first and was about to turn around to pick up Qin Zhongyue, but she jumped down with a box of snacks in one hand and lifted her skirt.

This scene happened to be seen by the nanny who was getting off the horse behind. She was shocked and wondered if the prince would scold her for not teaching the princess well.

Fortunately, the prince did not say anything. The nanny decided to correct it with the princess in private, but for now, she should just pretend she didn’t see it.

"Xu~"

When Xiaoyi and Xiaoer smelled the sweet scent, they started to act coquettishly towards Qin Zhongyue and were unwilling to go to the stable.

"Okay, I'm really impressed by you two. One piece each. I haven't had enough yet."

Qin Zhongyue took out her most disliked mung bean cake and gave one piece to each of the two horses. Only then were Xiaoyi and Xiaoer willing to follow the coachman.

As the horses left, two lightning-fast figures rushed out from the inner courtyard.

Qin Zhongyue knew that the guard loved to be jealous of Xiaoyi and the others the most, so he also took two pieces of pastries of the second flavor he disliked the most and gave them to the guard.

"That's it. It's not that the meat is not tasty."

Before guarding the house, Mrs. Que saw Xiaoyi and Xiaoer eating cakes. No matter whether they tasted good or not, they had to eat them anyway, so the owner could not be partial.

The security guard felt like vomiting after eating the pastries, they really didn't taste good.

"If you dare to vomit, you won't have to eat tonight!"

Qin Zhongyue knew what guarding the house meant as soon as she saw them, so she didn't pamper them.

I originally wanted to save some for my parents and others to try the pastries from the palace, but now there are four pieces missing, and there are only four pieces left in the food box, which are not enough to share.

When the guard heard that there was no dinner, he dared not vomit it out. He just swallowed it and smiled to his master with his mouth open.

"You, the horse and the wolf, are both very human-like. Do you have any secret?"

Xiao Jingyi couldn't help but speak after seeing this.
