The two hurried back, and when they reached the entrance of the palace, they saw the queen's maid Zhu Cui waiting at the door.

"Aunt Zhucui!"

Fusu called, but Zhucui had a stern face and secretly indicated with her eyes that there was a queen in the palace. You two are not allowed to smile like this!

Seeing that Zhu Cui, who had always been gentle, was so dignified, Fu Su did not dare to neglect her. He coughed lightly and signaled Chu Yueqing not to behave inappropriately in front of the palace.

Chu Yueqing was smart and put away her smile before Fusu gave instructions. With a dignified and decent posture, she followed the young master into the palace with gentle steps.

"Mother, why are you here today? I have neglected you!"

"The armor I sent you to the battlefield is here. It was just made today. I wanted to bring it to you as soon as possible for you to try. If there is anything that doesn't fit you, you can modify it earlier."

Shimi looked at Fusu lovingly, seeing that he was sweating slightly on his forehead as he trotted, and then took a peek at Chu Yueqing, the maid next to him. At this time, she was lowering her head, looking respectful, with the same expression just now The innocent look was long gone.

"Yes……"

Fusu ordered Chu Yueqing to take the armor, and the woman responded softly and took it.

Mother and son sat around the table, Shimi specifically asked Chu Yueqing to stay and wait on them.

"This is your first time to go on an expedition with Wang Jian. You must be careful in everything. Although you are a young master, Wang Jian has rich experience in many battles. You must listen to his opinions on battlefield matters and do not be reckless."

"Yes……"

Shimi did not mention Chu Yueqing immediately, but silently observed the two of them. When she poured water for Fusu, Fusu couldn't help but glance at her secretly. The woman also smiled, and it seemed that the two of them The relationship is really good.

"Mother, why is Yixin going with us on this expedition? She is a woman, not a man. I have never heard of a princess from a country going out with the army to destroy the enemy."

Shimiya smiled, his tone gentle.

"You also know your sister's temper. She is very curious and eager to win. She rarely leaves the palace and is always curious about the outside world. You can see what she is thinking when you see her wielding swords and guns all day long. I don’t want to be this pampered princess at all, but I want to do something on my own.”

Shimilue warned with great sincerity.

"Although Yi Xin is courageous, the Queen Mother is afraid that she will act rashly and act without permission, which may lead to disaster. You have to watch her."

Although Fusu listened to Shimi's advice, he was so preoccupied with flirting with Chu Yueqing that he forgot to reply!

Shimiya was not annoyed and took this opportunity to ask

"I see this maid looks angry. Is she new here?"

After asking this question, the two young men immediately calmed down their expressions. Seeing Chu Yueqing's face stiffen, they hurriedly replied:

"To tell you the truth, this servant only entered the palace last month."

She took a few steps back and knelt down, lowering her head so that her face could not be seen clearly.

"What's your name?"

"Go back to your Majesty, my servant's surname is Chu and my name is Yueqing."

"How old?"

"My slave is turning fifteen this year."

This question and answer made Fusu become nervous. He didn't dare to interrupt without permission, so he could only watch the change in his mother's expression. His mother's tone didn't sound like she was angry, but her expression was a bit serious.

"Fifteen..."

the queen sighed

"It's so good to be as young as a flower... raise your head and let me take a look."

Chu Yueqing hesitated for a while, then slowly raised her head.

Only then did Shimiya see her appearance clearly. At the age of fifteen, she naturally exudes a lively and youthful spirit. This woman is not gentle in appearance. She has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and her big eyes flicker. Look. She looked very smart, and she was not timid. Instead, she stared straight at the queen and smiled, with a cherry-shaped mouth, which looked really lovable.

"What are you looking at?"

When Shimi asked, Chu Yueqing realized that she had lost her manners and quickly lowered her head to beg for mercy.

"I hope your Majesty will forgive me. This is the first time I have seen the Queen since I entered the palace. Seeing how young and beautiful the Queen is, my eyes were attracted to her without even realizing it."

This kid is not only smart, but also reacts quickly.

"I heard that when you were in the Chu State, your family was an official. So you were once a daughter of a famous family, and now you are a slave in the Qin Palace. Don't you feel unwilling to do so?"

Naturally Shiya wanted to test her. Although she was only fifteen years old, if she deliberately approached Fusu with evil intentions, he naturally couldn't just sit back and watch! In other countries that are now annexed, those nobles often incite the people to launch riots to resist Qin. Although they are quickly wiped out, it will be tiring if this goes on forever. It's not peaceful outside now. If there is a riot in the Qin Palace, then I will definitely kill Chu Yueqing as a warning to others!

What's more...she took advantage of Fusu's kindness, so she couldn't let him off lightly!

Chu Yueqing was neither humble nor arrogant, nor did she appear flustered. Instead, after bowing to the queen, she spoke eloquently

"When I was in the Chu State, my father was indeed an official, but his official position was not high. I was born from a concubine, and my father had many concubines in his courtyard, so... although I may be regarded as a rich man in the eyes of outsiders, I am not. In fact, I... was not favored by my father. If I had not become a slave in the palace, I would probably be married to other powerful people as a concubine for my father's benefit. Come to think of it... I have no control over my life. Compared with the current situation, There is no difference."

"You are open-minded."

Shimi glanced at Fusu, the child was nervous! She smiled and asked again

"But Qin destroyed Chu, and your country was destroyed by Qin. Are you willing to end up like this?"

Although Chu Yueqing was young, her mind was very clear. She was silent for a moment and then slowly said

"I don't know what the empress does. Before the Qin State attacked the Chu State, the Chu State had become incompatible due to clan conflicts. The four major families had been fighting for their own interests for a long time. My father was a disciple of one of the clans. In order to please This family is always on tenterhooks and cautious about their words and deeds, but even so, it is difficult to guarantee whether their own children will die for no reason the next day. My father lived a cautious and cautious life, walking on thin ice, how is it different from me today? Sooner or later, we sons and daughters will become victims of this struggle. Even if Qin does not destroy Chu, Chu will be destroyed due to internal disintegration, and the end may be even worse."

With decent words and clear logical thinking, Shimiya had to admit that he liked this little girl very much when he first met him. No wonder Fusu fell in love with her. He was not only attracted by her appearance, but perhaps more because she had something to talk about. .

But staying with Fusu was always an unsettling factor. For the sake of her son, Shimi naturally couldn't take risks. She thought for a moment and then asked pleasantly.

"I like you very much. Are you willing to follow me back to the palace and serve me?"

As soon as these words came out, Fusu straightened up immediately. Just when he was about to refuse, Chu Yueqing reacted quickly and quickly kowtowed in thanks.

"Thank you very much for your compliment. If I can serve you, I will be truly lucky!"
