After His Majesty was reborn, the poor little girl in his previous life was spoiled to death

When Ye Zhen said goodbye to Guiyi Hall, it was already late, and the late spring breeze was faintly warm.

On the way back to her room, she suddenly changed her mind and said to Huaping, "Let's go to Songshoutang instead."

Huaping said, "The old lady said today that she would not see anyone, so we don't need to go over to pay our respects."

Ye Zhen nodded: "I know, let's go see Miss Ning."

Ning Er was caught off guard when she saw Aunt Ye. Her first reaction was to cover her face and said angrily, "Chuncao, why didn't you inform me in advance?"

She was so lazy and disheveled that it would be fine if she showed it to Liu Ying, but how could she let Aunt Ye see it?

Chuncao hurriedly defended herself: "I don't know either. No one told me."

Seeing that everyone had entered the room, it was too late to change clothes and wash up, so Ning'er had to bite the bullet and greet her with her braided hair loose: "Auntie, why are you in the mood to come? Please take a seat quickly."

When Ye Zhen saw Miss Ning's expression, she knew that she had no intention of going out today. Instead, she said very naturally, "Sorry to bother you, Miss. I haven't seen you for a while, and I happened to pass by your place, so I came to see you."

She looked at Ning'er very gently and asked, "Are you feeling better, young lady?"

Ning Er saw that she was dressed neatly and elegantly, and felt a little awkward. She suppressed her shyness and said, "Everything is fine. Thank you for your concern, Auntie."

Aunt Ye could tell at a glance that she was uncomfortable, so she lowered her head to drink tea without looking at her, and changed the subject: "Well, you seem to be in very good condition. But when I went to Guiyi Hall today, Madam looked much more haggard."

When Ning Er heard this, she also followed up with a question of concern: "I wonder how Madam is doing? She just said she was sick, so I didn't dare to disturb her rashly."

Ye Zhen's eyebrows were gentle, and she smiled lightly, "I don't look too bad. Maybe I caught a cold from the night wind and didn't sleep well for two days, so I look a little tired."

Ning'er caught a glimpse of the gray hair under her hair accessories and quickly replied, "That's good. We feel relieved." Ning'er thought she had gone to Guiyi Hall, so she thought of coming to pay a visit to the old lady and stop by her place.

She still remembered Chuncao saying that on the day she secretly left the house, Aunt Ye came to her rescue, so she treated her with more friendliness.

The two of them exchanged a few words casually, and Ning'er gradually relaxed. She took the initiative to start a topic: "I see that Aunt Ye doesn't go out much on weekdays. What does she usually do to pass the time?"

Ye Zhen turned her head and scanned her face inch by inch very carefully. She saw that there was no decoration on Ning'er's face or hair. She was as pure as a lotus emerging from water, naturally beautiful.

She smiled and said, "It's just some needlework, and then some Buddhist prayers and chanting, which are things young people don't like."

Ning'er immediately thought of Aunt Ye's deceased child. The agate in the old lady's room who was responsible for offering Buddhist scriptures in front of the Buddha, like Aunt Ye, was always surrounded by a faint scent of sandalwood.

Ning Er felt a little guilty for accidentally mentioning Aunt Ye's sad story, but she heard Ye Zhen suddenly ask, "Does Miss Ning have any sisters or brothers?"

Ning'er paused for a moment before quickly denying, "No." She still remembered her "mother" who was far away in Jiangdu and passed away early, leaving behind only a baby.

Aunt Ye listened with a smile, but then asked, "Does your mother have other sisters or brothers?"

Ning Er shook her head and said hesitantly, "My grandmother only has one daughter, mother."

She was just wondering why Aunt Ye asked this, when she saw her raise her eyebrows and said in confusion: "This is really a coincidence. When I was young, I met a woman in Beijing who looked very similar to you. But you have lived in Jiangdu for a long time, so I thought she must be your blood relative."

"It seems that they just look similar."

Ye Zhen seemed to have just said something casually, but it set off a huge wave in Ning'er's heart!

Aunt Ye thought she was from Jiangdu, but she knew she was not!

Her heart began to beat wildly. Could it be, could it be, could it be... Aunt Ye had met her mother when she was young? !

For so many years, she had been completely ignorant of her mother's background and name. Now, she suddenly heard a possible clue. Although she knew it might be a coincidence, she couldn't help but feel her heart beating fast.

Ning'er had a lot to ask, but due to her status, she could only endure it. She forced a smile and tried to test:

"My grandmother was born in Beijing and has many sisters. Maybe Aunt Ye saw a girl who is one of the old lady's nephews?"

Ye Zhen concentrated and thought for a while: "It has nothing to do with the Zhu family."

She shook her head and sighed, "Well, let's not talk about it. He's just a miserable person."

Ning'er clenched her fists suddenly!

Just at this moment, Zishan came in through the embroidered curtain and said in surprise, "Miss, there is someone outside who wants to see you."

Ning Er almost choked on her breath. She was a little unhappy for once and asked stiffly, "Who is it?"

Ye Zhen looked at her expression and knew that the time had come, so she took the opportunity to stand up and say goodbye: "Since someone is here, I will take my leave first. Miss Ning, if you are free, please come and sit with me."

Having said that, without waiting for Ning'er to speak, he smiled and walked towards the door.

Ning'er was left sitting alone at the table, feeling extremely confused.

After a while, she remembered that Zishan was still waiting for her reply, so she patiently asked again: "Who is it?"

Zishan leaned over to her ear and whispered a name. Ning'er's eyes suddenly widened: "No way. What does he want me for?"

----

British government.

Lou Qi's face was as gloomy as water, and he paced back and forth in the main hall. Princess Linping felt dizzy and couldn't help but said, "My Lord, please stop walking. Sit down!"

Lou Qi was only three years older than Lin Ping. He was usually good-tempered, but today he couldn't help but frown. He stamped his feet and said, "Your Highness, how can I sit still?"

He flicked his sleeves and pointed to the gold and pearl-inlaid scripture box on the incense table in the main hall. Inside the box was a Buddhist scroll with a porcelain blue and gold coating.

It was Wei Dexi who sent the "Sutra of the Past Vows of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva" to the Duke of England's palace in compliance with the imperial decree.

He said sadly, "The pair of jade ruyi has not even warmed up yet, and His Majesty has already sealed the Buddhist scriptures and sent them to us. This is His Majesty admonishing us to cultivate ourselves and our families and fulfill our duties as subjects!"

Princess Linping was very helpless with what her husband said. She said with difficulty: "What did we do wrong? Why is Your Majesty so angry?"

His Majesty sent Wu Shilu to ask for the peach blossom in the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion, and she helped without hesitation. His Majesty wanted to protect the cousin of the Marquis of Xinyuan's Mansion, so she didn't say a single harsh word. She returned to the Princess's Mansion and sent someone to deliver ginseng to her house.

What else can she do? Even if Lou Ying had a conflict with the girl from the Lin family, it didn't affect the girl, she just said a few words to her.

Your Majesty cannot just go to such lengths and vent your anger over a few words in the boudoir!

Lou Qi stared at Princess Linping with burning eyes: "Didn't the princess say that Lou Ying offended the noble, so she displeased His Majesty. If a son is not well-educated, it is the fault of the father. Your Majesty will not condescend to argue with Ying'er, a little girl, and will not do anything to her own sister. Of course, the punishment will fall on me."

"My dear?!"

Lin Ping simply couldn't imagine that her husband would use this phrase to describe the little girl from a poor family: "What kind of noble person is she?"

Lou Qi, who was always submissive in front of her, showed his edge. He said coldly:

"Your Highness, the current emperor is a man of great military and literary talents, and his power is so great that he can conquer the world. Whether you are noble or not is naturally decided by his words. You must understand that the princess is noble now because you are the emperor's biological sister, not the eldest daughter of the late emperor. Lou Ying and I are just subordinates of the Chu family."

"Whoever can be taken seriously by the current emperor is certainly a noble person!"

He spoke without stopping, "The princess may not know yet. At the court meeting today, the Minister of Rites privately mentioned the matter of establishing a queen, but the emperor did not say a word and just walked away."

Lin Ping's face turned pale. She clenched her fists tightly and listened to her husband ask:

"Lou Qi, please think about this, Your Highness. How does a princess compare to a queen?"
