Lin Qingqing looked at Lin Jiuqing who had already sat down, her eyes becoming increasingly cold.

She knew that Lin Jiuqing was favored, and His Majesty treated her like the apple of his eye, and treated her specially. But she usually pretended to be very good, followed the rules, and never showed off, which made Lin Qingqing think that she was a fairly honest person, and even if she was favored by His Majesty, she would not be arrogant.

But at this moment, Lin Qingqing felt that she was wrong and she had misjudged Lin Jiuqing.

It’s not that Lin Jiuqing isn’t arrogant, it’s just that she pretends to be good at it on a daily basis.

Today, she finally revealed her true colors.

She was a royal concubine, and when one of her people committed treason and harmed her, she simply fined him one month's salary and let him go.

She, Lin Jiuqing, didn't take herself seriously at all.

Especially, I was still standing while the other party had already sat down.

After Lin Jiuqing sat down, he saw Lin Qingqing standing and staring at him unkindly. After a moment of silence, he explained softly: "My body is not in good condition. I am afraid I can't stand for a long time. Please don't mind, Your Majesty."

Lin Qingqing's eyes moved, and she walked to the opposite side of Lin Jiuqing and sat down, and said slowly: "When we were all learning the rules in Chuxiu Palace, where were you?"

Lin Jiuqing was stunned, tilted his head and looked at Lin Qingqing.

"You haven't learned the palace rules very well," Lin Qingqing said slowly, "The nanny who taught me is still in the palace. I asked her to live in Lanyin Palace for a while. You can learn from her."

It was not a discussion, but an order.

She is now a noble concubine. In the absence of a queen, she is the highest-ranking concubine in the harem. Moreover, she is deeply trusted by the queen dowager and helps her manage the harem.

Once she spoke, no one in the harem dared to disobey, and Lin Jiuqing should be no exception.

This time, Lin Jiuqing understood what Lin Qingqing meant. She felt that she had no rules and wanted to teach herself the rules.

Lin Jiuqing remained silent for a long time.

Indeed, she really didn't understand any big rules in this palace. She only knew to live her life behind closed doors, not hurting anyone, and not letting others hurt her.

Regarding today's incident, she also knew what Lin Qingqing was concerned about and why she was so upset.

However, Yingyue attacked Lin Qingqing to protect her. If she didn't protect Yingyue, it would be disheartening.

As for this matter itself, it was Lin Qingqing who started it first.

This is the palace rule. She is a noble concubine, and her position is one level higher than others. Even if she wants to execute Yingyue today, no one dares to say a word against it.

But that’s not the truth.

Lin Jiuqing looked at Lin Qingqing and said softly, "My Lady Concubine Xian, I have no intention of being your enemy, and please don't make it too difficult for me."

They kept to themselves and in this huge palace, unless it was intentional, they would never have to meet each other in their entire lives.

Lin Qingqing's face darkened: "Do you think I'm deliberately making things difficult for you?"

Lin Jiuqing looked at her quietly, which was considered as his agreement.

Lin Qingqing said coldly: "I think you have been spoiled by His Majesty and have even forgotten the most basic respect for superiors and subordinates."

"My Lady Consort Xian," Lin Jiuqing took a deep breath and looked at Lin Qingqing opposite him, "Why did you come here today?"

Lin Qingqing was stunned for a moment, then thought of the purpose of her coming here, her face changed, and then she gritted her teeth and said: "So, where is His Majesty, and are the rumors outside true?"
