The mind-reading sick prince led me and the system to go crazy

"Your Highness, the Queen is currently admiring the flowers in the palace with Noble Lady Yu and Noble Lady An."

Aunt Yincong said respectfully.

The day before yesterday, the small vassal state of Ulan in the Nanman area presented a lot of rare treasures and exquisite silks and satins as tribute, but the Queen only liked those pots of bright and colorful black orchids.

When the emperor heard this, he specially sent a palace maid to deliver the pots of black orchids to Feng'an Palace.

After lunch today, Noble Lady Yu and Noble Lady An came together, saying that they wanted to see with their own eyes what kind of flowers could make the Empress happy.

Of course the Queen Mother couldn't drive them out, so she allowed the two noble ladies to stay.

"Flower viewing?"

Xie Xi didn't know when his mother had such a refined taste, and he became interested instantly. With a smile on his face, he said, "Then I'll go in and take a look."

In front of many palace maids, Xie Xi held Lu Xiaoxiao's hand, his eyes full of tenderness: "Xiaoxiao, follow me in to see the queen mother."

Lu Xiaoxiao stared at him and nodded, "Okay."

Perhaps in the eyes of everyone, Lu Xiaoxiao's presence was not strong. If they hadn't seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince take action, they would not have noticed that there was a woman following His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Aunt Yincong's expression remained unchanged as she apologized to the Crown Prince: "I deserve to die. I didn't even see this person just now..."

Xie Xi took over the conversation: "My Fengyi, Lu Fengyi."

Aunt Yincong was stunned.

I guess the person in front of me is Lu Fengyi, who was sent to the Prince's Mansion by Concubine Shu.

When she heard the news earlier, Aunt Yincong suggested to the Queen Mother whether she should send someone to the Prince's Mansion to give Lu Fengyi a warning, so that she would not say anything inappropriate in front of the Queen Mother Shu in the future.

But at that time, the Queen Mother smiled and said that she believed in the ability of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and there was no need to interfere in the matter.

After hearing what the Queen said, Aunt Yincong finally put her mind at ease.

Who would have thought that, not so long after so long, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince actually brought Lu Fengyi into the palace to meet the Queen?

Aunt Yincong was dazed for a moment, but years of caution allowed her to quickly come to her senses and she quickly saluted Lu Xiaoxiao.

All the palace maids following Aunt Yincong also knelt down.

Lu Xiaoxiao was still startled, and subconsciously took a half step back. She looked down at the palace maid kneeling on the ground and said quickly: "No need to kneel, all of you get up."

"Yes."

The maids stood up again.

Lu Xiaoxiao secretly scratched Xie Xi's palm, raised her little face slightly, and blinked at him: "Your Highness, don't stand here, go in."

Xie Xi hummed softly, with a smile spreading in his eyes.

Noticing the Crown Prince's expression, Aunt Yincong glanced at Lu Xiaoxiao inconspicuously without showing any expression and sighed softly in her heart.

Only after seeing His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lu Fengyi enter the main hall of Feng'an Palace did Aunt Yincong retract her gaze and continue to guard outside the door with a group of palace maids.

……

At the same time, in the main hall.

Concubine Yu was wearing a plain palace dress, standing in front of several pots of black orchids. Her round little face was full of smiles, her eyebrows were curved, and her pair of bright eyes were staring at the brilliantly blooming black orchids. She wished she could carry the pot of black orchid back herself.

But when she thought that this was specially sent by His Majesty to the Empress, the light in Yu Guiren's eyes dimmed a lot. She suppressed the bitterness in her heart and said with a smile: "These black orchids are blooming really well, no wonder the Empress likes them."

An Guiren, who was standing at the side, said in a sour tone: "The Wulan Kingdom only offered these pots of black orchids as tribute, and now, they are all with the Queen."

At the beginning, Noble Lady An also wanted a pot of black orchid to be placed in her bedroom, but before she could open her mouth, all the black orchids were given to Feng'an Palace, and she couldn't even touch a leaf.

In fact, she is even more beautiful than the Empress, especially when she cries, she looks so pitiful that no man would not be soft-hearted. However, the Emperor is unmoved and continues to dote on the Empress and neglects this great beauty.

Concubine An didn't understand what kind of seductive tricks the Queen had used to win the heart of the Emperor.

Therefore, Concubine An came to Feng'an Palace every day.

Even after paying her respects to the Empress at dawn, Noble Lady An would stay in Feng'an Palace and refuse to leave. One reason was to meet the Emperor by chance, and the other was to learn something from the Empress so that the Emperor would be attracted to her.

"Your Majesty insisted on sending Molan here, and I couldn't bear to refuse."

The Empress seemed not to have heard the sourness in Concubine An's words. She still had a gentle smile on her face, as if bathed in the spring breeze. The bright red palace dress made her look graceful and beautiful, just like the elegant peony.

She lowered her head, and her slender white fingers seemed to casually brush across the petals of one of the pots of black orchids, stained with a faint floral fragrance: "If Noble Lady An also wants it, why not let the Seventh Princess go to Wulan Country and bring back a pot of black orchid for Noble Lady An?"

The Queen smiled and said seriously.

But when Concubine An heard it, she trembled all over and couldn't help shivering.

Concubine Yu's expression changed slightly.

She calmed herself down and looked at Concubine An's face which had turned pale in an instant. She couldn't help but feel fortunate that she had not said those words that she shouldn't have said in front of the Empress just now.

The Seventh Princess is the only child of Concubine An, and she is her sweetheart. She just came of age last month, and it is time for her to get married. The Empress said this, isn't she using the Seventh Princess's marriage to warn Concubine An, asking her to behave herself and not have any bad thoughts in front of the Empress...

"Mr. An must have been joking before, right?"

The atmosphere in the palace was a little tense. Concubine Yu quickly held Concubine An's trembling hand and used a little force to remind her not to be presumptuous in front of the Empress. "Concubine An, please speak."

An Guiren came back to her senses immediately. She looked up at the Queen, with a hint of fear on her pale face. She swallowed and said quickly: "Please forgive me, Queen. I have no other thoughts--"

"Mother."

[Wow, it turns out that the Queen is so beautiful! ]

[No wonder His Highness is so handsome, it turns out that he inherited the beauty from the Queen! ]

[I really envy Your Highness for having such a beautiful mother! ]

As soon as Xie Xi opened his mouth, he heard Lu Xiaoxiao's amazement. His face paused slightly, and he glanced at her sideways, only to see that her eyes were slightly bright, staring straight at her mother.

Xie Xi: “…”

For some reason I had the illusion that my lover was going to be kidnapped by my mother.

Xie Xi was in a complicated mood, but he didn't show it on his face.

Little did he know that the Queen's mood at this moment was more complicated than his.

What was that voice that kept nagging in her ears?

Or are you praising her beauty?

Was she hallucinating?

The Queen Mother was so lost in thought that she even ignored her most beloved Xier.

Xie Xi thought that his mother hadn't noticed him, so he took Lu Xiaoxiao forward and called her mother again.

"The Crown Prince is here."

Concubine Yu and Concubine An smiled again.

Noticing the woman standing beside His Royal Highness, Noble Lady Yu asked, "Who is this...?"

Xie Xi did not answer Concubine Yu's words, but reminded Lu Xiaoxiao first: "Xiaoxiao, these two are Concubine Yu and Concubine An."

"My concubine Lu Xiaoxiao, the Crown Prince Fengyi has met the Empress, the Noble Lady Yu, and the Noble Lady An."

Lu Xiaoxiao bowed politely to the Queen Mother and the two nobles.

The system screen in my mind was flipping, displaying the gossip about Concubine Yu and Concubine An one by one.

However, Lu Xiaoxiao didn't have time to look at it yet, she was still staring at the Queen Mother. Her salute did not get a response from the Queen Mother, which made Lu Xiaoxiao a little panicked.

[What happened to the Queen? Did Your Highness bring me here and make the Queen angry? ]

"No need to be polite."

The Queen finally figured out what was going on and came to her senses. She waved at Lu Xiaoxiao and said, "Come here, let me take a good look."

Lu Xiaoxiao: ???

Concubine Yu and Concubine An looked at each other quickly, and Concubine Yu said with a smile: "Since the Crown Prince has come to see the Queen, Concubine An and Concubine An will go back first."

"Go back."

The Queen nodded.

Noble Lady Yu and Noble Lady An left together.

Lu Xiaoxiao did not notice the two nobles leaving. She looked at Xie Xi nervously, and only after getting his consent did Lu Xiaoxiao dare to approach the Queen.

Lu Xiaoxiao just stood in front of the Queen, and the next moment, the Queen gently held her hand, with a slight smile on her lips, "You are a pretty girl, why are you just a Fengyi?"

"Did Xier bully you?"

"Today, I will make the decision to upgrade your position and make you a concubine of the crown prince. Is that okay?"

"!!!"

Lu Xiaoxiao was stunned.

[Wait, what on earth did I do to attract the Empress? The Empress actually wants to promote me? Or is she the Crown Prince's concubine? ? ]

[Am I dreaming? The last Fengyi was promoted to the Prince's concubine? From the ninth rank to the fifth rank? ? ]

【Why is this happening? 】

Besides being shocked, Lu Xiaoxiao was also a little confused, always feeling that something was not right.

The Queen was so kind to her.

"Mother, she has always been timid. Mother scared her."

Xie Xi looked helpless, and strode forward to stand beside Lu Xiaoxiao. He raised his hand, gently rubbed her little head that was almost motionless, and said with a smile: "Xiaoxiao, now you are the prince's concubine, why don't you thank him quickly?"

The Queen's beautiful eyes turned and she glared at him, "Look at what Xi'er said, is it possible that the Queen Mother looks scary?"

[No! The Queen is the prettiest one!!]

Lu Xiaoxiao finally reacted. With Xie Xi by her side, her pounding heart calmed down. She quickly bowed to the Queen and said, "Thank you for your grace!"

"Okay, no need to be polite."

The Queen smiled and patted the back of Lu Xiaoxiao's hand. "Later I will send someone to the Crown Prince's Mansion to announce the decree and promote you."

"Thank you, ma'am."

Lu Xiaoxiao didn't know why the Queen suddenly promoted her position, but now that Xie Xi was here, even though she was very curious, she could only keep it in her heart for the time being.

However, she did know that the Queen seemed to have a good impression of her?

Thinking of this, Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but secretly look into the Queen's beautiful eyes, and happened to see the smile in her eyes.

Lu Xiaoxiao paused slightly, and her heart softened instantly.

She narrowed her eyes, and the dimples on her cheeks were immediately revealed.

Xie Xi stared at it, feeling delighted.

It would be the best if the Queen Mother could accept Xiaoxiao and personally promote her.

In fact, after he entered the palace to handle affairs yesterday, Lai Feng An Gong told his mother about him and Xiao Xiao, and naturally mentioned that he wanted to promote Xiao Xiao's position.

However, the Queen Mother did not express her thoughts at that time. Xie Xi thought that the Queen Mother would not agree. Unexpectedly, when he brought Lu Xiaoxiao to see the Queen Mother today, the Queen Mother gave him such a big surprise.

……

"Okay, stop standing and come sit down."

Seeing Xier and Lu Xiaoxiao looking at each other in a sticky way, the Queen Mother felt amused but couldn't help but sigh in emotion. She had never seen this side of Xier before.

Speaking of which, the promotion of Lu Xiaoxiao's position was indeed a decision made by the Queen just now. After all, when she heard Xi'er talk about it yesterday, she didn't expect that she would be able to hear Lu Xiaoxiao's inner voice -

Although all of them were compliments on my appearance.

It seems that Lu Xiaoxiao's thoughts are too pure. With her staying by Xier's side, the Queen can feel more at ease.

Xie Xi and Lu Xiaoxiao followed the Queen and took seats in the hall.

The Queen Mother sat on the high seat in the center of the palace, and her eyes on Xie Xi were full of tenderness and love: "Xi'er, what are you going to do in the palace this time?"

Xie Xi pursed his lips and smiled softly: "Just now, I went to the Imperial Study and discussed some things with my father. After that, my father asked me to bring Xiao Xiao here to accompany my mother."

The Queen: "So that's how it is."

Xie Xi: "Just now I heard from Aunt Yincong that Noble Lady Yu and Noble Lady An came here just to admire the flowers here with the Queen Mother?"

"Ah."

The Empress nodded and said, "The day before yesterday, the Ulan Kingdom paid tribute and sent a few pots of black orchids. When your mother saw them, she liked them very much. Your father sent people to send all the black orchids to Feng'an Palace. I'm afraid that Concubine Yu and Concubine An were stimulated for a while and thought of coming to take a look."

At this point, the Queen paused, her eyebrows slightly frowned, "It's a bit strange to say, Concubine Yu usually keeps a low profile, except for coming to Feng'an Palace to pay respects at dawn, Concubine Yu rarely comes out, why today..."

[In fact, Yu Guiren was instigated by Wanpin, who lived in the same palace with her, to come to Feng'an Palace.]

Lu Xiaoxiao sat next to Xie Xi, seemingly listening attentively and quietly to the conversation between the Queen Mother and His Highness, but in fact she was using her consciousness to browse the system.

Just when she turned to Noble Lady Yu, Lu Xiaoxiao heard the Queen's doubts. She didn't dare to say it directly, but just muttered a few words in her heart:

[Wanpin loves Molan. Recently, Wanpin has been favored by the emperor, so she thinks she is the one the emperor loves the most.]

[Wanpin originally thought that His Majesty would give her Molan, but unexpectedly, Molan ended up in Feng'an Palace! ]

[Wanpin didn't dare to confront the Empress directly, so she kept instigating Yu Guiren to ask the Empress for Molan, hoping to get Yu Guiren and the Empress to quarrel——]

Queen:? ?

Xie Xi's eyes darkened.

[It turns out that Concubine Yu has been pregnant for two months! ]

[Wanpin deceived Yu Guiren, saying that black orchids are good for the fetus, hoping that Yu Guiren would get close to the Empress by appreciating black orchids many times.]

[In this way, Wanpin could have the maidservant whom she had bribed secretly push the Queen from behind at the right time, so that Concubine Yu would have a miscarriage...]

[This Wanpin is too vicious! ]

Lu Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth secretly, but did not notice that the conversation in the hall had stopped long ago.
