Li Yanran quickly ran to Su Jinxiu's side. Thinking of the grievances she had just experienced along the way, she could no longer hold back her tears.
Like pearls, falling one by one.
"Sister Su, you, you spilled all the spring water you gave me.
I'm so useless, Sister Su, I'm sorry, I'm so useless.
How can you protect your grandfather if you can't even save a jar of water?
Wuwuwu..."
Xu has gone through a lot, and even crying becomes cautious.
Su Jinxiu guessed that something happened to Li Yanran when she went to the Imperial Study Room just now. Seeing her like this, it was hard to ask her in detail.
I can only hold her and comfort her softly.
"It's okay, you are growing up.
It doesn't matter if the spring water is gone. I'll get something for you and pack some more.
If you are outside, it doesn't matter if I can hold you and cry all day and night.
But this is in the palace, and we don't have much time.
You have to use it to do some serious things.
Now that your grandfather is sick, you have to be strong, you know?"
Li Yanran cried a lot and felt better.
Wipe away the tears and nod vigorously.
"I know, Sister Su, I will be strong.
That is, can you please fill me with some spring water now?
I want my grandfather to get better soon."
Su Jinxiu looked around and saw no one around.
She took Li Yanran back to the Royal Garden. At this time, Xu Yingying had already brought people back to Nuange.
It was very quiet in the Imperial Garden.
She found a large porcelain vase, filled it with some spiritual spring water, and carefully handed it to Li Yanran.
"If you run out, come back to me to get it.
If it is inconvenient for you to enter the palace, just go to the old prince.
Talk to the old prince and he will help you."
Li Yanran nodded. She was very careful this time.
"Thank you so much, Sister Su.
If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know what I would do..."
As he was talking, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a pile of snow moving in the corner.
Li Yanran was so frightened that her eyes widened and she hid behind Su Jinxiu.
"Sister Su, the snowman has become a spirit."
Su Jinxiu protected Li Yanran and looked intently.
That wasn't a snowman, it was clearly Lin Zhaozhao who had been standing there for too long and was covered with snow.
At this moment, Lin Zhaozhao's face was blue and purple, and his whole body was stiff.
I couldn't stand on my feet and almost fell down.
This alerted Li Yanran and Su Jinxiu, otherwise no one would have noticed.
"Don't be afraid, it's Lin Zhaozhao."
, Su Jinxiu patted Li Yanran's hand and told her not to be afraid.
Li Yanran had just left early, but she didn't know about Lin Zhaozhao's offending Xu Yingying.
However, Lin Zhaozhao broke her spiritual spring water first.
Now that she saw Lin Zhaozhao being punished, she felt very happy.
She walked forward, glanced at Lin Zhaozhao, and snorted coldly.
"Hmph, you deserve it.
If you do too many bad things, there will always be retribution."
Lin Zhaozhao gritted his teeth and ignored Li Yanran's childish shouting.
Instead, he looked at Su Jinxiu and trembled.
"Su Jinxiu, why are you in the palace?
Being a palace maid? What purpose and purpose do you have?
Could it be that you know that the regent is not someone who can be trusted?
So, you want to hook up with me, Your Majesty?"
Su Jinxiu frowned and looked Lin Zhaozhao up and down.
"So, you were discovered just because you wanted to cling to the emperor.
Being punished to be a snowman here? Don’t worry, I won’t compete with you.”
Lin Zhaozhao didn't believe it, gritted his teeth and took a step forward.
"You say no to everything, but you take advantage of everything.
If you still say it’s not true now, who will believe it?”
Li Yanran pulled Su Jinxiu away and prepared to leave.
"Whether you believe it or not, no one cares if you believe it.
Sister Su, let’s go…”
Lin Zhaozhao couldn't help but get angry when he saw Li Yanran defending Su Jinxiu like that.
"Do you think Su Jinxiu is really kind to you? And helps you treat your grandfather?
Humph, that was all done for you to see.
She doesn't even care about life and death for her grandmother who has raised her for more than ten years..."
Su Jinxiu paused and looked back at Lin Zhaozhao.
Lin Zhaozhao seemed to know that he had spilled the beans, so he immediately shut up and refused to speak any more.
Fortunately, a eunuch heard the commotion and came over here.
Su Jinxiu and Li Yanran then turned around and left, and Lin Zhaozhao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
She was very harsh on Su Jinxiu, so she was still a little frightened after seeing the truth.
But we can't let Su Jinxiu know that the old man is now poisoned and lying unconscious on the bed.
Otherwise, there might be some commotion...
——————————————
Su Jinxiu sent Li Yanran away and turned back to the Royal Garden.
I wanted to ask Lin Zhaozhao again, but I learned that Lin Zhaozhao had already left the palace.
She frowned and was about to leave.
But he saw a woman dressed up slowly walking towards here.
Wang Tian, who was arrogant outside, was like a pug at the moment, following the woman with a smile.
Su Jinxiu came to her senses and walked to the side of the road, lowering her head to avoid it.
But the woman saw her and walked straight to her.
Su Jinxiu didn't look up, but she only caught a glimpse of the bright red skirt.
Knowing that I couldn't avoid it, I could only salute.
"I have seen Concubine Xian. She is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old..."
When Xu Yingying heard this, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and smile.
"You know it's me? Have you met me before?
But I don’t remember seeing you.
It’s bright outside, let’s go in and talk!”
Xu Yingying immediately entered the pavilion on the side, where a stove and hot tea were already prepared.
After she sat down, she motioned for Su Jinxiu to sit down as well.
"Sit down, I am not that harsh a person."
Su Jinxiu sat opposite Xu Yingying and slowly raised her eyes.
His expression is calm, neither humble nor arrogant.
"I wonder if your Majesty is looking for me and has anything to say?"
When Xu Yingying caught a glimpse of Su Jinxiu's appearance, she couldn't help but feel shocked.
She considers herself to be as beautiful as anyone, and has seen many beauties in the palace over the years.
But there is no woman like Su Jinxiu.
Beautiful but not evil, plain but not pure.
Especially after being tortured in the palace for so many days, her expression was not even the slightest bit sluggish.
Don't be afraid at all when facing people in high positions.
Such character and character are even more rare.
Yes, only such a woman can be remembered by an evil spirit like Xiao Jingze.
Only such a woman can control Xiao Jingze.
"Miss Su is smart, and I don't hide it either.
I have taken a fancy to Miss Su's cooking skills and hope that Miss Su can join my palace."
Speaking of this, Xu Yingying paused.
Wang Tian on the side saw this and quickly took over the conversation.
"The empress is always favored in the palace and can help her with things.
There is endless glory and wealth to enjoy.
As long as Shopkeeper Su is willing, the good times will never end.
The empress has a good temper and treats the people around her well.
If Shopkeeper Su can stay with the Queen, he won't have to be controlled by others in the future.
As a slave, men are still unreliable.
Shopkeeper Su is now suffering a lot of humiliation in the palace, doesn't he have no one to help him stand up?
It is better to rely on yourself than to rely on others..."
I thought that Su Jinxiu had been bullied in the imperial kitchen for so long, but now she felt a little moved after hearing these words.
Unexpectedly, Su Jinxiu just smiled.
"What my father-in-law said is that men are unreliable, and it is even more unreliable if they are neither men nor women.
