The legitimate daughter is reborn and cannot escape after being provoked by the tyrant

Lin Qingqing was clearly the one who fell, but now everyone was surrounding Lin Jiuqing who was still standing. Even Lian'er felt that Lin Qingqing was a little pitiful.

"My queen, are you okay?" Lian'er helped Lin Qingqing stand up and bent down to straighten her messy skirt.

Lin Qingqing ignored Lian'er at all. She stared at Lin Jiuqing opposite her, with an expression of disbelief on her face, as if something had collapsed.

The people around Lin Jiuqing were quite frightened. They all stared at Lin Jiuqing, afraid that she would frown.

Lin Jiuqing was also really scared just now. Although the baby in her belly was well-behaved, she was too weak after all, and it was easy for something to happen. She had always been very careful. If she had really fallen just now, she didn't dare to imagine the consequences.

Coming back to his senses now, Lin Jiuqing patted Yingyue's hand and said, "I'm fine, no need to be so nervous."

He then looked up at the people surrounding him and ordered, "Everyone disperse. I'm fine."

After everyone confirmed that she was fine, they dispersed and went back to their respective duties.

The knocked-over table was quickly picked up, and the broken teacups on the ground were picked up. In a short while, the tea and snacks were rearranged on the table, and everything seemed as if nothing had happened.

Lin Jiuqing immediately walked towards Lin Qingqing and asked with concern: "How is it, are you hurt just now?"

Lin Qingqing had a cold face and said nothing.

Yingyue, who was standing next to her, took a step forward, knelt down in front of Lin Qingqing, and said in a deep voice, "It was my fault just now that I offended the Concubine Xian. Please punish me, Concubine Xian."

Lin Jiuqing glanced at Yingyue: "Just now, you were indeed reckless."

Yingyue lowered her eyes and said nothing.

If the situation just now happened again, she would move forward faster than before and push Lin Qingqing away more decisively, not giving her the chance to touch Lin Jiuqing.

Lin Jiuqing saw what she meant, sighed in his heart, and said in a lighter voice: "The virtuous concubine wants to punish you today, and you should accept it."

Yingyue: "Yes, this servant should be punished."

Lin Jiuqing looked at Lin Qingqing: "She just...was just worried about my safety. But no matter what the reason was, she hurt you after all. I apologize to you on her behalf. If possible, please forgive her this time. Of course, if you punish her, it is reasonable."

Hearing Lin Jiuqing apologize on her behalf, Yingyue pursed her lips and lowered her head.

Lin Qingqing lowered her head and rubbed her wrist slowly. After listening to Lin Jiuqing's words, she couldn't help but sneered.

"Everyone knows that Yingyue is His Majesty's person. Her monthly allowance comes from His Majesty's private treasury, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs has no control over her. If I punish her today, wouldn't that be a slap in His Majesty's face?"

Lin Qingqing raised her eyes to look at Lin Jiuqing and said coldly: "Stop pretending here."

What she said was too harsh, and it completely broke off her relationship with Lin Jiuqing.

After a moment of silence, Lin Jiuqing sighed, lowered his head and said to Yingyue: "You hurt Concubine Xian today, so you must give an explanation. Since Concubine Xian has concerns and can't punish you, then let me do it."

"I'll just fine you... one month's salary as a lesson to you. Don't be so reckless next time."

Yingyue kowtowed quickly: "Yes, I will remember it."

Lin Jiuqing was afraid that Yingyue staying here would make Lin Qingqing even more unhappy, so he asked someone to leave and looked at Lin Qingqing: "I'm tired of standing. If you have anything to say, let's sit down and talk slowly."
