The Crown Prince"s wife seemed to have a lower status.In the warm spring, he did not bring Bai Ruoyu into the Imperial Palace, but instead brought her to the White Moon Restaurant.
"Empress, Second Miss Bai has arrived." In a private room on the second floor, Warm Spring bowed and reported.
Queen raised her hand, "Let her in."
"Yes." Lukewarm Spring immediately bowed and left the room.
"Second Miss, the Empress invites you in."
Glimmers danced in Bai Ruoyu"s eyes as she felt slightly uneasy in her heart. When she walked into the private room, she saw the Queen sitting in the main seat. Bai Ruoyu immediately knelt down and greeted, "Your daughter greets the Queen.
Looking at the well-behaved Bai Ruoyu, the corner of the Queen"s lips curled up, "Rise, you can"t be compared with the people outside the palace, you can avoid these rules if you can."
"Thank you, esteemed Empress." Bai Ruoyu stood up as instructed, his lowered eyes full of nervousness and unease.
"A gift."
Cui Xia, who was standing beside Queen, immediately carried a small round stool over.
"Thank you, esteemed Empress." Bai Ruoyu bowed and carefully sat on the round stool.
The Queen looked at Bai Ruoyu with a smile that was not a smile, "This time around, Second Miss has performed quite well. Whether it is in terms of archery or horse riding, it is worth for me to learn from her."
Hearing this, Bai Ruoyu immediately got up in fear, "Empress, you flatter me, this subject is still far from being able to compare."
Bai Ruoyu clenched her fists tightly, her hands were perspiring profusely. However, this time, she had clearly lost to Bai Lier, and if one were to say that her performance was not mediocre, it would definitely not be her, Bai Ruoyu. This time around, she was a failure, a complete failure. What exactly did Queen mean by saying all those words at this time?
Seeing Bai Ruoyu"s panic-stricken face, Queen smiled evilly: "Second Miss, don"t be so nervous, I was talking about the arrow that you shot at the Zhou family"s young miss."
The tone of the evil spirit carried a profound meaning.
Bai Ruoyu was startled, then as she thought of something, her tensed body gradually relaxed.
"The young miss of the Zhou family wants to a.s.sa.s.sinate my elder sister, so of course she deserves to die." Bai Ruoyu looked up, his eyes full of meaning.
When the Queen heard this, the corners of her lips curled up imperceptibly, "Of course, no matter who dares to make a move on the imperial territory, there is only death waiting for them."
Bai Ruoyu lowered her eyes and did not express any objections.
Queen looked at Bai Ruoyu, who had her head lowered, and a cold smile appeared on her face. She leisurely lifted the teacup that was on the table and said, "I heard that you once saved the crown prince and asked him for the position of secondary wife."
Her indifferent voice was very casual, but Bai Ruoyu could hear the cold sweat on his body.
"Yes." Bai Ruoyu clenched her fists nervously.
Queen carelessly raised her eyes as she sipped on her tea, "It seems that your status as the secondary wife is a little too low."
It was another sentence that was neither too harsh nor too mild. Bai Ruoyu"s face turned white, she immediately knelt and said fearfully, "This humble one truly likes Your Highness, I hope that the Queen can grant my wish."
Bai Ruoyu said as she kowtowed. The Crown Prince"s side concubine was her only hope. She definitely could not let that hope disappear.
Queen sneered again as disdain flashed past his eyes. Lowering his eyes and taking a sip of tea, Queen then said, "With your low status, there"s nothing you can do."
Bai Ruoyu"s body stiffened, she looked up to see Queen drinking her tea with an expressionless face, as though she had not said what she had just said.
Bai Ruoyu frowned, she did not understand what the Queen meant.
After casually placing the teacup back on the table, Queen looked up and said, "Help Second Miss up."
After Warm Spring heard this, he immediately walked over to Bai Ruoyu"s side and helped her up.
"I rarely come out of the palace, so Second Miss will accompany me for a stroll today." Queen stood up as she said this.
"Yes." Bai Ruoyu lowered her eyes and uneasily agreed.
When the Queen walked out of the private room, she immediately followed with her head lowered.
Prince Su"s Mansion.
"Miss, why did you get out of bed?" Yun Zhi entered the room, and seeing Bai Li getting off the bed, she jumped in shock and immediately went to help her.
Bai Li curled her lips, squeezed her brows, and said, "What I injured was my hand, not my leg, why can"t I get off the bed now?"
Bai Li said as she shook her hand that was covered in bandages.
Seeing that, Yun Zhi was immediately frightened, "Miss, I beg of you, please stop shaking, I feel pain from the sight of you."
Yun Zhi looked at Bai Li"s hands that were covered in bandages, her beautiful eyes were filled with pain.
Yun Zhi carefully helped Bai Li to sit in front of the round table, "Miss, please sit first, I"ll go get the medicine."
Bai Li wanted to wave her hand, but she was stopped by Yun Zhi, "Miss, please do not do anything, if you have anything to say, just move your mouth, if you really do not want to, you can just move your feet, but please do not do anything."
Bai Li was speechless. It had only been a few days, yet this girl"s mouth was already slick. What kind of ink was she talking about? It was as if she had turned black.
What Bai Li did not know was that, because Xue Qingyan and Murong Xun had always been relying on Prince Su"s Mansion, Qi Wen and Song Yan would often have the chance to talk to each other. Yun Zhi"s mouth was filled with nonsense, she had learnt quite a lot from Song Yan.
"You"re so poor with your words, hurry up and go."
Bai Li stared at Yun Zhi, who immediately blushed: "This servant will go right away."
Just as Yun Zhi walked out, Qi Wen entered.
"Miss, why did you get out of bed?" Seeing Bai Li sitting in front of the table, Qi Wen also frowned.
Bai Li raised her eyebrows leisurely, "I"m almost done, and besides, I"ve been lying on the bed without moving, I"m almost going to get mold."
She was lazy, but she couldn"t bear to be kept in bed.
"Is something the matter?" Bai Li looked up.
"Oh." Qi Wen came back to reality, "At noon, the Second Miss and the Zhao Family came over."
"Bai Ruoyu is here?" Bai Li raised her eyebrows in surprise.
Qi Wen nodded, "She said that she wanted to see you."
"Heh." Bai Li sneered, if she came to visit him, wouldn"t that mean that the weasel was paying his respects to the chicken?
"Did aunt not ask her to come?"
Qi Wen smirked, "Yes, I heard that not only did w.a.n.gfei not allow Second Miss to come visit you, she even scolded her and her."
Bai Li lowered her eyes, a devilish light flickering in her eyes. Aunt is really disappointed in Bai Ruoyu this time. The child she had always loved had suddenly turned into a face she didn"t recognize at all. She would feel sad.
Yun Zhi entered the room carrying the medicine bowl, and just happened to hear this sentence, and her mood immediately turned good. In the past, Second Miss had always bullied the Young Miss in front of her, and now that the Young Miss was awake, the Second Miss could no longer bully the Young Miss anymore.
"Miss, the medicine is ready. This servant will feed it to you." Yun Zhi lifted the medicine bowl, scooped up a spoonful of soup and blew lightly on it before bringing it to Bai Li"s lips.
Bai Li uncomfortably twitched her eyes, "I"ll do it myself."
Bai Li extended her hand out to take the medicine bowl, but Yun Zhi dodged it, "No, Miss"s hands are inconvenient, I"ll feed it to you, open your mouth."
Bai Li was speechless, but she had no other choice and could only obediently open her mouth.
