I really don't want to take shortcuts anymore

Luo Qianhuai's mind moved slightly, and he stepped forward to support her: "Madam, there is no need to be so polite. I don't know what your name is, and why you called me here?"

She deliberately lowered her voice, making it deeper and rounder than her previous voice, thinking that no one would be able to hear it.

Lady Qin did feel that the person in front of her looked somewhat familiar. Not only the eyes, but also the figure, she felt as if she had seen him somewhere before, but at the moment, it was difficult to imagine him clearly.

Since she couldn't figure it out, she threw the thought aside and went straight to the point:

"Madam, you can call me Lady Qin." She raised her neck modestly.

Luo Qianhuai had already thought about his attitude towards the people around the emperor, so he naturally said whatever sounded pleasing to the ear:

"Looking at Madam Qin's dressing, I'm afraid she will soon change her name to Madam Qin, right?" Her smile became a little weird due to the lip balm that she had deliberately applied to make it bigger.

But the word "Madam" did succeed in pleasing Lady Qin. Her smile reached the bottom of her eyes, and she also had a better impression of this knowledgeable and interesting Lady of Xianghou.

In fact, Lady Xianghou, like her, came from a humble family and grew up in the countryside, so she was not like those noble ladies who looked down on her.

Thinking of this, Madam Qin had already developed some genuine intention to make friends with Luo Qianhuai, and her words became more polite and courteous.

"Madam, please take a seat." She walked to the main seat and asked Luo Qianhuai to sit at the guest seat. Tea and snacks had already been placed on the seat, but Luo Qianhuai did not dare to move.

"Madam Qin, please feel free to say whatever you want to say. If there is anything I can do to help, I will do my best." She lowered her attitude.

"Madam, you worry too much." Lady Qin said with a smile, "I am just being asked to give you some advice."

Who can control the person beside His Majesty? Luo Qianhuai knew what was going on and became more humble:

"Mrs. Qin, you can say whatever you want."

"Madam is originally the daughter of a minor official. She grew up in the countryside and was confined to the market. Normally, she would have married into the family of a minor official or merchant and would have to worry about the daily necessities of life all day long." Madam Qin said leisurely.

Luo Qianhuai had been prepared. She immediately stood up and bowed deeply in the direction of the main hall of Chengming Palace: "With my humble body, I was able to marry into the Marquis's mansion and be granted the title of Madam, all thanks to your Majesty's great grace. Your Majesty is benevolent as the sea. He pitied my meager dowry and specially granted me the Royal Garden as an addition. I am deeply grateful. Even if I die, I cannot repay your Majesty and Madam's great kindness."

When Madam Qin heard this, her smile became even brighter:

"Madam is a wise person. And wise people are always blessed."

"All of this blessing is bestowed by Your Majesty and Madam." Luo Qianhuai bowed to Madam Qin again, and then sat back slowly amid her laughter.

"Madam, do you know what to do?" Madam Qin suddenly said something without any context.

"I am a stupid servant. I wonder if what Madam wants me to do has anything to do with Marquis Xiang?"

Luo Qianhuai certainly knew who was standing behind Madam Qin, but the emperor could not be involved in private matters, so she deliberately avoided the other party.

"Madam is truly extremely intelligent." Madam Qin looked at Luo Qianhuai and sighed.

"I know what to do." Luo Qianhuai said respectfully, "Please rest assured, Madam."

"Very good." Madam Qin said, raising the teacup in her hand and taking a sip. "If you find anything, you can go to the fifth tea shop on the right hand side of the second entrance of the East Market and look for Manager Liao."

"Please rest assured, madam. I will act with caution and will never let your majesty and madam down!" Luo Qianhuai stood up and saluted again.

"Okay, go back now. The Duke of Xiang should have finished talking to His Majesty. By the way, today's matter..."

"I will keep my mouth shut." Luo Qianhuai responded.

"Your Majesty really has a keen eye for talent." Madam Qin said admiringly, "I will pass on your Majesty everything you said today without changing a word. No matter what the future holds, you will have a future, so please rest assured."

Luo Qianhuai bowed his head: "I will follow your majesty and madam's arrangements."

The door was opened from the outside, and Luo Qianhuai left and walked out. Madam Qin looked at her leaving back, and the familiar feeling from before came back to her heart again.

Such a graceful figure is rare even in the palace. Where had I seen her before?

She thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so she put the matter aside again and began to organize the words she would report to His Majesty later.

His Majesty was precocious and very strict with those around him. Even if she had taken advantage of their old relationship and got the position of the Lady Teacher, she would still have to think over what she was going to say several times before speaking in front of him. As for those who spoke without thinking, unless they had someone to back them up, it would be impossible for them to live long in the palace, let alone be promoted to Chengming Palace.

Luo Qianhuai was brought to the door of the main hall again. After waiting for less than half a quarter of an hour, Master Mo came out.

He seemed to have expended too much energy, with beads of sweat oozing out of his forehead. Just stepping over the threshold was extremely strenuous for him.

Luo Qianhuai hurried forward to support him, and a eunuch had already brought a sedan chair nearby.

She raised her eyes and looked at Mr. Mo, who gave her a reassuring look in return.

Luo Qianhuai also understood. It turned out that the young emperor wanted to use someone, but was afraid that the young emperor had evil intentions, so he wanted to develop himself into a secret agent.

She accepted the olive branch without hesitation when the young emperor sent Lady Qin to hand it to her. So it was even less likely that Master Mo himself would refuse the other party, no matter whether the other party handed him the hilt of the sword or the tip of the blade.

Of course, as long as we saw that the little emperor was still willing to give her a sedan chair when she entered the palace, we knew that the result of their conversation must be satisfactory to the other party.

Only after he left the palace and got on his own carriage did Luo Qianhuai dare to let go of the worry that had been hanging in his heart.

"Yinyin's appearance today is really too shocking." Master Mo looked at her and sighed, "No wonder even Madam Qin didn't recognize you."

Luo Qianhuai did not have an interface. When she entered the palace earlier, she had been deeply immersed in the Lotus Style performance, and only now did she remember the task issued by the system. The countdown on the upper left of her vision had disappeared without a trace. With a nervous mood, she called up the task interface, and her heart suddenly sank:

"Papermaking random task progress: 2/3. The overall score of completed tasks: 70 points, temporarily below the passing standard. Despite the system's earnest reminders, the host still failed to correct his attitude and take the random tasks seriously, resulting in a significant drop in the score of the 'Jane in the Emperor's Heart' task compared to the previous tasks. This system is heartbroken and has to sternly warn the host: You must cherish the last chance of the random task, otherwise you will lose the papermaking formula forever!"
