After the failed attempt to pretend to be dead, the sickly child was favored by the treacherous mini

"Hey, this, this." Chen Luo pushed Shen Jinmo, but found that he didn't push her away. She didn't feel embarrassed, but asked excitedly: "Chun Yu, the Queen also wants to meet Master Xie, right?"

Chen Luo was used to having no rules. Because the emperor favored Xia Che, and Chen Luo was born into a noble family, few people could punish her.

Sometimes Chunyu was also puzzled. The Chen family was full of heroes and was known as the number one family in Daxia. Why did the eldest daughter grow up to be like this?

"What the princess said is very true." Chun Yu bowed to Chen Luo without showing any contempt: "The queen wants to meet the lifesaver of the prince."

"It just so happens that he is my friend, and I will push him there."

Chen Luo confidently took Xie Nanxing's wheelchair, took a few steps and made a face at Shen Jinmo, warning sinisterly: "Nephew, you'd better be careful and stay away from Xia Che."

With two fingers clasped around her neck, Chen Luo looked a little cruel: "If you dare to teach Xia Che kung fu, this princess will punish you, my lifesaver."

The wheelchair moved forward on the jade floor. Xie Nanxing turned his head and looked at Shen Jinmo with a faint smile.

There's actually nothing to be afraid of.

Being afraid won't solve anything anyway.

A room full of noble ladies sat around Zhong Luoyue. In their gossips about family matters, they always managed to compliment Zhong Luoyue, coaxing her into becoming gentle and smiling.

Chen Luo couldn't fit in with the conversation of this group of ladies, so she took a portion of fruit and sat at the back, giving the seat closest to Zhong Luoyue to someone in need.

She is always reasonable.

The reputation of these women in the harem was originally given by the men in their families. If the men in their families were useful, there would be no need for their wives and daughters to do such flattering things.

The one who once sat on the Phoenix Throne never needed others to do this. With the face earned by the men of the previous dynasty, he would give the same honor to the women in the backyard.

The past came to mind, and Chen Luo remembered what that person had said:

"If there is no peace at home, how can a man serve his country?"

“So men’s contribution to stabilizing the country and women’s contribution to managing the household are equal.”

But a new emperor appoints new ministers, and the situation in Daxia has long changed.

Xie Nanxing naturally didn't want to attract other people's attention. When he saw Chen Luo walking backwards, he pushed the wheelchair with his elbows and moved back to make room for Chen Luo.

It was hard for the two of them not to attract the attention of these people as they retreated and advanced.

"Your Majesty, I think this Mo Shizi's savior is really handsome."

Zhong Luoyue followed up with this and began to look at Xie Nanxing carefully: "It's true. Even when staying with Luo, the most beautiful woman in Luoan, he is not inferior to her."

"It's just that the scar on the face is a bit of a downer. I don't know if it will leave a scar."

It is too disgraceful for a group of ladies to bully a young boy who has just arrived in Luoan.

Lady Qin, the wife of Duke Dingguo, smiled and said softly, "It doesn't matter that this man has a scar on his face. Mr. Xie is now the lifesaver of Prince Mo and a guest of honor of Her Royal Highness the Princess."

"Yes, yes, mother is right." Chen Luo echoed: "Xie Nanxing is not one of those men and women in your backyard who need to serve others with their beauty."

This straightforward sentence directly exposed the little thoughts of these ladies, and no one in the room dared to talk about Xie Nanxing's appearance anymore.

But they couldn't talk about appearance, there were always other topics to talk about, and in a short while the topic would come back to Xie Nanxing.

But no matter what these people said, Xie Nanxing just smiled and nodded in agreement.

Let people say what they want, it won’t cost you anything, Xie Nanxing doesn’t care.

Xie Nanxing, who was used to eating small meals frequently, was really hungry, so he lowered his head and slowly ate the pear blossom cake on the jade plate.

In fact, these people didn't need Xie Nanxing to respond. They were just used to picking the weakest one to amuse themselves.

But Zhong Luoyue didn't like Xie Nanxing's indifferent look, "Does Mr. Xie like to eat this pear blossom cake?"

Xie Nanxing put down the pear blossom cake, supported himself with the wheelchair and prepared to stand up and kneel down towards Zhong Luoyue.

Chen Luo directly stopped Xie Nanxing. She was entrusted by someone last night. Moreover, Chen Luo also sympathized with Xie Nanxing's feelings for Shen Jinmo, so it was impossible for her not to protect him.

Everyone in the hall looked at Chen Luo's outstretched arm, and Qin scolded in a low voice: "Princess, what are you doing?"

"Mother, I stopped Master Xie from kneeling down."

Chen Luo did not dodge. She moved her slightly puzzled gaze from Qin to Zhong Luoyue, which slowly turned into an innocent smile.

"The Queen dotes on the younger generation the most. Now that Master Xie is so seriously injured, how could the Queen let him kneel?"

There was not a single crack on her gentle face as Zhong Luoyue smiled and said, "A Luo is right. We are all one family here. Sir Xie, just sit down and answer."

Although he did not kneel, Xie Nanxing also bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, I grew up in the mountains and have never eaten such exquisite pastries."

A group of noble ladies covered their lips with handkerchiefs after hearing this, and laughed as sweetly as silver bells, expressing the contempt of the wealthy families for the country people.

"Haha, haha." Chen Luo's dry laughter overwhelmed all the ladies: "Is what he said funny?"

After Chen Luo asked this question, silence returned to the hall.

Chen Luo also grew up in the countryside, and her powerful mother was sitting in the palace.

"Qinghe, Mr. Xie loves to eat pear blossom cakes. Pack a box for him. Xiao Mo grew up in the mountains, so it's a good opportunity for him to try some."

Zhong Luoyue's status did not allow her to laugh and joke with the other ladies in the palace, but it did not prevent her from showing her dislike for Xia Xin's lineage.

Her words were not meant to protect Xie Nanxing, but directly implicated Shen Jinmo, telling all the noble ladies in the palace that Shen Jinmo was nothing more than a country bumpkin.

The reason why these people dared to make fun of Shen Jinmo like this was naturally related to the fact that Shen Jinmo was whipped by Xia Xin on the first day he returned to Shendu.

Most of the people in this hall are fence-sitters who change their stance according to the situation.

Prejudice is an insurmountable mountain, but Xie Nanxing couldn't bear to hear these people making fun of Shen Jinmo, not a single word.

"Thank you, Queen."

Wanting to know the whole story, Xie Nanxing knelt on the ground and said, "I often hear His Highness mention that the emperor also tilled the fields when he was young. His Highness has been fortunate to have spent several years in the countryside and has seen the hardships of people's lives. He will surely be able to serve the emperor and the people."

Chen Luo's gaze fell on Xie Nanxing with a heavier tone. This man looked easy to bully, but when it came to Shen Jinmo, he was not easy to bully.

Zhong Luoyue's gaze fell on Xie Nanxing, and became a little darker.

Xie Nanxing didn't look smart, and even looked a bit dull and inexperienced.

But these words of thanks spoken casually by such a dull person overwhelmed the ladies in the room so much that they dared not say a word.

"Empress, did I say something wrong?" The atmosphere in the palace suddenly became solemn. Xie Nanxing slowly raised his head, his eyes filled with confusion and a little fear.

"Please spare my life, Queen."
