Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Qu Yingrong listened and nodded. “1 see.”
She sighed and said, “I can’t blame you. This Princess Ping’an’s temper is indeed a bit too big. She has never been very tolerant of others. I have also seen it.”
Her gaze fell and she looked at Liu Shimei’s palm. She asked, “How is your hand?”
Liu Shimei stretched out her bandaged hands and said generously, “Thank you for your concern, Empress. It’s just a scratch and a little blood. 1 have already applied medicine at the Imperial Academy of Medicine. After a few days, the wound would heal naturally. It was not a big deal.”
She could sense that the Empress was not very satisfied with Princess Ping’an.
Qu Yingrong did not pursue Yu Wanqing’s matter and said, “King Dun Yu has the temper of a child now. He insisted on bringing you there and even caused a ruckus in the Imperial Academy of Medicine.”
Huangfu Lingyao was about to speak when he heard that.
Liu Shimei glanced at him and winked at him, reminding him of what she had said before coming in. He then shut his mouth and lowered his head without saying anything.
She also lowered her eyes and said obediently, “This matter cannot be blamed on King Dun Yu.”
As she spoke, she lifted her skirt and knelt down. “It’s my fault. 1 was reckless and could not bear to see the people of the Imperial Academy of Medicine being rude to King Dun Yu. At that time, 1 wanted to stand up for my fiance and did not think about the consequences at all. I did not think about right or wrong.”
Taking the initiative to admit one’s mistake and holding the initiative in one’s hands was much better than being chased, questioned, suppressed, and beaten!
Seeing her kneel down, Silly Second Prince also knelt down in a daze and said, “No, no, no, this is still my fault. 1 was the one who hit him!”
“You two have a good relationship!” Qu Yingrong looked helpless.
Before she could say anything, a loud voice suddenly sounded from outside. “His Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!”
Qu Yingrong was stunned and said, “Why is the Crown Prince here?”
However, her own son had come, and it was almost dinner time. Naturally, she could not stop people from entering, so she ordered people to invite the Crown Prince in.
Huangfu He had already entered.
“Your son pays his respects to Mother!” He bowed to Qu Yingrong and glanced at the fiancee and fiancee kneeling on the ground.
The last time he secretly left the palace to meet Liu Shimei, but could only hear her. Now, it was the second time he had seen her.
Huangfu Lingyao subconsciously moved closer to Liu Shimei. His tall body blocked her petite body, as if he could not let Huangfu He see his wife.
Huangfu He was standing, so his field of vision was wide. What could he do if he was kneeling?
Huangfu He’s face showed just the right amount of surprise. He looked at the Empress and asked, “Mother, what’s going on? Why are they kneeling?”
“Oh, nothing much.” Qu Yingrong smiled and said, “You two, get up quickly. Since the Crown Prince is here, add another set of chopsticks, and let’s talk while eating.”
Everyone sat around the round table. Liu Shimei was pulled by Qu Yingrong to sit beside her, and on the other side of Qu Yingrong was Huangfu He. Huangfu Lingyao naturally wanted to sit beside his wife, so he sat between Liu Shimei and Huangfu He.
However, in this way, it separated the two people who should not be sitting together, but caused the two of them to face each other!
The silly puppy was instantly filled with displeasure. He threw hostile looks at Huangfu He from time to time, as if he would rush over and bite off Huangfu He’s neck if Huangfu He stared at his wife one more time!
This atmosphere was too obvious. Who would not notice it?
Liu Shimei, on the other hand, was very calm. She had done everything properly. She was not the one who would be with Huangfu He for the rest of her life. She would not take the blame!
Of course, she would also try to keep a distance from Huangfu He. She would not look him in the eye if she could, so as to avoid causing trouble.
“Mother, your son has heard about the Imperial Academy of Medicine.” Huangfu He spoke first..
