"you know?"

Zhou Xiaofei asked quickly.

"Don't you know, Empress?"

Si Zihua asked back in surprise.

"Well, I just asked my brother, and he just said that he was accidentally injured in a fight with some thieves."

Zhou Xiaofei did not hide it, "I don't think so, but brother won't say it."

Then he looked at Si Zihua, "From what the princess said just now, do you know anything?"

"Well, since Mr. Zhou said so, he must have a reason for saying so. Imperial sister-in-law, please don't ask any more questions."

Si Zihua said with some embarrassment.

Zhou Xiaofei felt even more suspicious now. "Princess, please tell me the truth. What happened to my brother?"

"Okay, then I'll tell the Queen's sister-in-law."

Si Zihua leaned close to Zhou Xiaofei's ear and whispered for a while.

After hearing this, Zhou Xiaofei's anger, which she had been trying hard to suppress, finally erupted.

"Xiao family! Feng Qi!"

"Okay, I'll take note of it."

Looking at Zhou Xiaofei's distorted face, Si Zihua almost laughed.

"Don't be angry, sister-in-law. It's all over. Besides, even for the sake of the regent, this is the only way to deal with it."

Si Zihua couldn't help but add fuel to the fire.

"Humph, am I still no match for that bitch?"

Zhou Xiaofei was furious.

It turned out that her brother had a conflict with someone because he wanted to buy her a gift. He was beaten like this and had to go to the other person's house to apologize.

To the point that I didn't even dare to tell the truth in front of her.

"Sister-in-law, I heard that Feng Qi is pregnant. The Regent Prince loves her even more now." Si Zihua said this seemingly casually.

Zhou Xiaofei's expression became even uglier. "She is really lucky."

Si Zihua was secretly happy. This was exactly the effect she wanted. The angrier Zhou Xiaofei was, the more likely he was to make mistakes.

"Sister-in-law, in fact, if you want to get the attention of the emperor, you don't have to rely on competing for favor." Si Zihua pretended to persuade.

"What should we do then?" Zhou Xiaofei asked anxiously.

Si Zihua's eyes rolled and a plan came to her mind. "Now that the queen is about to give birth, my brother accompanies her almost every day. Why don't you go to the queen more often?"

Zhou Xiaofei thought about it for a moment and felt that it made sense. She nodded repeatedly, "Princess is still smart. I will prepare some gifts and visit the Queen tomorrow."

Si Zihua achieved her goal and left Ningcui Palace with a smile.

She knew that Zhou Xiaofei was completely enraged this time and would definitely take action next.

And this was exactly the result she wanted.

Zhoufu

"You didn't say anything nonsense!"

Minister Zhou glared at Zhou Xiaoshan and said.

"Don't worry, father. I just said I got drunk and got into a fight with some thieves."

Zhou Xiaoshan quickly assured.

"Ah."

Minister Zhou nodded with satisfaction. He didn't want to offend the Regent again because of this matter.

Little did he know that it was too early for him to be happy.

In front of Xuanwang Mansion

Shadow waited until it was almost dark before he finally saw two groups of people slowly walking towards him.

It’s not that he is impolite, it’s just that the current situation of Wuji and Wuyan makes it hard to tell whether they are human beings or something else.

The two men were hung with packages of all sizes and boxes, and even had a lot of things on their heads.

Shadow was a little suspicious, wondering if they had emptied the place.

Not daring to delay, he quickly led people forward to rescue the two.

"Thank you, thank you very much."

I thanked him without saying a word.

Wuji's face almost turned black, and he didn't know who had made him angry.

And old man Qianji had already seen Feng Qi, and he kept complaining with a sour face.

"Girl, you know that I have lived my whole life and everyone who sees me has given me some respect. But this brat wants to bully me and destroy my ancestors this afternoon!"

"Girl, you have to make the decision for the master!"

Old man Qianji looked so aggrieved that he was almost crying.

Si Xuan: This old guy is getting more and more shameless. When did he ever say he would betray his master and destroy his ancestors?

Shadow: I can testify that you said I was betraying my teacher, but you didn't say I was destroying my ancestors.

Feng Qi angrily glared at the man who was still pretending to be innocent, "Master, please don't be angry, drink a cup of tea and calm down."

Feng Qi personally poured a cup of tea and handed it over, "Master, I have asked the kitchen to make your favorite steamed mandarin fish. You should eat more later."

"Haha, good, you are such a good girl. Your love for you is not in vain."

Old Man Qianji was instantly happy and looked at his other disciple provocatively.

Si Xuan: Forget it, considering his age, I won’t bother with him.

At dinner time, everyone gathered together.

Old man Qianji looked at the table full of delicious food and smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed.

Wuyan was so hungry that his stomach kept growling.

Wuji felt very embarrassed and turned his head away.

"Come here, girl. This is a gift that your master brought for you." Old man Qianji took out a wooden box from his arms and handed it to Feng Qi.

Feng Qi opened the box, and inside was a crystal clear Ganoderma lucidum. "This is... a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum!" Feng Qi said in surprise.

"Hehe, how about it, do you like it? It took me a lot of effort to find it." Old Man Qianji said proudly.

"Thank you, Master!" Feng Qi was filled with joy, as she knew how precious this Ganoderma lucidum was.

"Hmph, winning people's hearts!" Si Xuan couldn't help but mutter when he saw this.

"You kid, are you jealous?" Elder Qianji scolded with a smile, "When you become as considerate as this girl, I will give you a great gift!"

"Oh, then you may not have the chance to send it."

Si Xuan said calmly.

"What did you say, you little brat?"

Old man Qianji was furious.

"Master, this fish tastes best when eaten hot. Please try it quickly."

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Feng Qi hurriedly spoke.

"Humph, for the sake of Miss Qi, I will not argue with you."

Old man Qianji said arrogantly.

Everyone was very satisfied with the meal.

On the second day, Old Man Qianji and Feng Qi were playing chess. Wuyan stood aside and couldn't help pointing. Feng Qi laughed out loud from time to time, but Old Man Qianji was so angry that he flew into a rage several times.

Wuji was busy in the kitchen, stewing medicinal food for Feng Qi according to the recipe given by old man Qianji.

However, the beauty of this moment was soon broken by the eunuch who came from the palace.

Si Xuan walked towards Feng Qi with a serious expression.

"What happened?"

Before he could speak, Feng Qi asked first.

"Someone from the palace said that the queen is ill, and the emperor wants you to go over and see her."

Si Xuan said reluctantly, then looked at the old man Qianji who was still smiling, "Why don't you let Master go? You can have a good rest in the mansion."

Old Man Qianji: You little brat only knows how to love his wife, but why don’t you know how to respect your master?
