An Lingrong was so angry that she laughed at Baojuan's words.

"Haha, you also know that you are my maids?"

An Lingrong signaled Liuyun not to pay any attention to her and walked up to Baojuan.

At this time, Liuyun had already crawled up from the ground.

Looking at the look Baojuan gave him, his heart felt cold.

Without any hesitation, Liuyun decided to follow An Lingrong's words and continue reading the "heavenly book" which he actually couldn't understand, just as if the other party didn't exist!

Anyway, now that the noble lady has taken action, she will definitely deal with Baojuan!

"Little Master..."

When Baojuan saw An Lingrong coming in front of her, she was about to advise her to take care of herself, but before she could say anything, she was disturbed by An Lingrong's eye attack.

"What did you just say?"

An Lingrong smiled and said, "I shouldn't? What should I not do?"

Baojuan understood that An Lingrong wanted to protect Liuyun, so she came to stand up for her.

Based on her previous experience with An Lingrong, Baojuan knew that she would definitely not be able to gain any benefits from her.

At this moment, Baojuan remained silent, as if it was not her who had spoken before.

"Huh? Didn't you yell quite loudly just now?"

An Lingrong said, "I want to teach Liuyun to read so that she can serve me better. Do you have any opinions? If you do, there is no need to hide it. Just say it directly, so that it won't seem like I'm bullying you again!"

"I dare not. I am considering the health of my young master. I hope that my young master will not work too hard. After all, my young master still has a dragon fetus to raise!"

Baojuan lowered her head, showing that she was very considerate of An Lingrong.

Then, Baojuan seemed to have thought of something and said, "According to palace rules, servants are not qualified to learn to read!"

Having said this, Baojuan seemed to have grasped some powerful support, and even dared to look up at An Lingrong.

Seeing this, An Lingrong smiled slightly.

The fact that she wanted to teach Liuyun was a well-considered decision, not a spur-of-the-moment one.

Therefore, An Lingrong had already considered it carefully.

"What you said is that eunuchs are not allowed to read, and this move is all to avoid a recurrence of the eunuchs' disorderly politics in the previous dynasty!"

An Lingrong said, "Just because you can't read doesn't mean you can't even recognize words. Besides, you are women, palace maids, and are completely different from eunuchs. How can you be confused with them?"

Baojuan originally thought that she had found An Lingrong's mistake, and she couldn't help feeling proud of herself.

But she didn't expect that what she remembered was not complete, and An Lingrong knew it even better than her.

Now, being asked this question by An Lingrong, Baojuan suddenly lost the courage to raise her head. The "arrogance" that had not yet emerged disappeared in an instant.

"Your servant invites the young master to have a meal!"

Seeing that she couldn't win the argument with An Lingrong, Baojuan immediately changed her strategy.

She just said that she was thinking about the baby in An Lingrong's belly. Now, since she can't stop An Lingrong, let An Lingrong go to eat!

I would be very hungry if I didn’t eat this meal, not to mention that An Lingrong had been “painstakingly” teaching Liuyun for a long time.

"hehe."

An Lingrong smiled back at Baojuan, but her eyes were cold, which made Baojuan feel that she would be busy again!

"You'd better keep your mouth shut about this matter."

When An Lingrong and Baojuan were going to the dining room, she whispered, "I have behaved uprightly and have a clear conscience, but if any trouble arises because of you, you don't have to stay in Suiyuxuan anymore."

Bao Juan's face was in a panic, and she said quickly: "Don't worry, my lady, I dare not say anything more!"

An Lingrong ignored him and started eating.

……

At the same time, in Jingren Palace, the Queen just opened her mouth to disband the morning meeting.

Immediately afterwards, Concubine Qi and Chun'er were specially kept by him.

"Your Majesty, why did the Queen want to leave us alone?"

On the way to the back palace to find the queen with Concubine Qi, Chun'er's face was full of worry.

Ever since the failure of the last "mission", the two old maids who had been following Chun'er were transferred away by Jianqiu. The newly assigned maids were much more ferocious than the previous ones.

Even though Chun'er was the master, the two maids didn't dare to be really presumptuous, but they were not polite at all in their daily interactions. They didn't treat her as the mistress they served at all, but obeyed the orders of Jingren Palace in everything.

Compared with the previous two, this is completely different. While Chun'er misses the past, her fear of the queen deepens.

"How can I know?"

Compared to Chun'er, whose panic was clearly revealed on her face, Concubine Qi seemed a little calmer, but that was just a pretense!

In fact, Concubine Qi's inner anxiety is no less than Chun'er's.

Just to maintain her own image and save face, Concubine Qi kept pretending nothing happened.

"Empress Qi, Concubine Chun, and the Empress are waiting for you two."

Just when the two of them came to the back hall with uneasiness, Jianqiu was already standing at the door. Upon seeing them, she smiled and motioned for them to follow her.

……

"Concubine Qi, I called you and Concubine Chun here this time because it's actually nothing serious."

The queen smiled at Concubine Qi and the other two, as if to comfort them.

However, Concubine Qi and Chun'er were already afraid.

At first glance, the queen's smile seemed very kind, but in their eyes, it only made them feel more pressured!

"Your Majesty! Please tell me what you want me to do. I am at your service!"

Concubine Qi really couldn't stand guessing in her heart anymore, so she made up her mind and spoke directly what was in her mind.

If it were just her and Concubine Qi now, the Queen would have appreciated Concubine Qi's "frankness".

But now there are not only them, Chun'er is also sitting next to them!

Therefore, the queen heard the words, and kept smiling, and said, "Concubine Qi, what are you saying? We are all sisters, why do you say that?"

"Your Majesty..." Concubine Qi was choked by the Queen's words. She thought to herself that last time she didn't react fast enough and made the Queen unhappy.

I have learned my lesson this time, so why is the Queen still not satisfied?

Looking at Concubine Qi who looked confused, the Queen sighed in her heart. She was too lazy to argue with Concubine Qi about the reason. Instead, she smiled and said, "Chun Changzai, you originally came from Suiyuxuan. Although you are now living in Yanxi Palace, Concubine An and Concubine Wan of Suiyuxuan are old friends of yours. Especially since Concubine An is pregnant now, if you have nothing to do on weekdays, you should go there more often. It will show your sisterly love!"

When the Queen said this, Chun'er felt sad.

Originally, she felt relieved when Concubine Qi spoke frankly.

He thought that with Concubine Qi leading the way, he could just serve as a foil.

Who would have thought that the Queen had actually planned it all out long ago?
