Quick Wear: Explosive Change! The cannon fodder female supporting role is done with it

Chapter 367 Cannon Fodder Substitute & Cold Tyrant 11
"His Majesty."

Xiao Yuan turned the page of the book and did not answer, but his expression was cold and hard.

"Empress Yi is here." The chief eunuch looked at his face and reminded him in case he forgot. "She said she came to give you soup and sachet to thank you for rescuing her from the lake last time."

A wet figure flashed through Xiao Yuan's mind, and he sneered: "Gao Peng, your life is too leisurely. You are actually doing the work of matchmaking for concubines." He raised his eyes, with bloodshot eyes, and it was obvious that he was in a bad mood.

The chief steward Gao Peng had long been accustomed to His Majesty's appearance, and chuckled: "I saw that you were just angry with the ministers, and it happened that Concubine Yi came here, so I wanted to let you relax. Your Majesty, do you want to take a look? After all, it is the Empress's good intentions." He handed the things forward.

Xiao Yuan sneered: "Minister Lin's daughter is the same as him."

However, his eyes inadvertently fell on the soup pot and the sachet, and when he saw the orchid on the sachet, his gaze froze.

Gao Peng always observed the emperor's expression, so he naturally noticed his changes and carefully tested him: "Your Majesty, I think Concubine Yi's craftsmanship is better than that of the embroiderers in the palace. Can you take a look?"

Xiao Yuan stared at the sachet, looked at him, and said nothing.

Gao Peng immediately held the sachet in both hands and handed it over. Xiao Yuan took it and looked at it with an indifferent expression. The orchid outlined with fine needlework was extremely realistic, with light purple petals and green leaves.

At first glance, it is very similar to the one embroidered by his mother.

The ones that were available were the finest palace brocades with superb embroidery, but his mother's were made of fabric cut from clothes, and her craftsmanship was not as exquisite as that of Concubine Yi.

The corner of his mouth curled up in sarcasm. After all, the eldest daughter of a noble family could never be the same as his mother.

They look similar, but in fact they are very different.

But... Concubine Yi is getting bolder and bolder. Thinking of the last time Concubine Yi fell into the water reminded him of his mother. The same pink clothes and autumn day, exactly the same as what he dreamed about every night. He wondered if it was a coincidence or if Concubine Yi had found out something.

These ladies from aristocratic families are full of cunning minds. They might have deliberately designed these things to lure him into a trap.

He was guessing what Concubine Yi wanted to do because of her different attitudes. At this moment, he smelled a faint fragrance at the tip of his nose, as if he had smelled it somewhere before, and he frowned slightly.

Suddenly he remembered that night in Cuiwei Palace when he suddenly had a headache and strangled Concubine Yi while losing consciousness. He seemed to have smelled it on her at that time.

The fragrance is faint.

When he woke up, she was already dying in his hands.

He stared at the sachet, but now he smelled the same fragrance as that day, but he felt it was a little different. However, he was still concerned about the orchid on it and Concubine Yi's purpose...

Seeing that His Majesty was staring at a sachet for so long, Gao Peng couldn't help but sigh. It seemed that Concubine Yi was really different in His Majesty's eyes. She looked as if she didn't care just now, but now she was holding the sachet tightly. He thought to himself that His Majesty obviously hated Minister Lin, but treated his daughter differently.

However, with Your Majesty's means, it is not easy to deal with a Shangshu.

He made up his mind, "Your Majesty, the Queen is still waiting outside. It's windy today. The Queen just recovered from falling into the water last time. If she stays in the wind for too long, she might get sick again. Would you like to ask the Queen to come in?"

Xiao Yuan looked at his earnest look and knew that it was his behavior that gave him a false impression. However, he glanced at the sachet and nodded: "It's just right. I haven't heard her play the piano for some time. It's a good time to listen to it today."

It's a good opportunity for him to see what she is planning.

Gao Peng looked up in shock, unable to believe that His Majesty had called Concubine Yi in just to torture her with the piano! ! But didn't His Majesty treat Concubine Yi differently? Xiao Yuan raised his lips: "Why are you still standing there?"

Gao Peng lowered his head quickly: "Yes, I will go and call the queen in right away." He thought to himself, just play the piano, maybe Concubine Yi's piano skills are so good that she attracted His Majesty.

Lin Zhi and the young eunuch Songzi waited anxiously after the chief eunuch went in. She silently calculated that as long as Chief Eunuch Gao delivered the sachet to Xiao Yuan, he would take a look and notice it. However, she couldn't copy it exactly, otherwise when the emperor thought of her he would think of his mother, and that would be the end of her.

Don't make any strategies either.

So the purpose was to make him suspicious of her intentions, and then there was a 60% chance of calling her in.

If she gets in, she'll have a chance.

After waiting for an incense stick of time, the palace door finally opened, and Chief Steward Gao came over and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, His Majesty invites you in."

Lin Zhi's eyes lit up, and a look of joy appeared on her face: "Really? Thank you, eunuch, for speaking well of me in front of His Majesty." But she suddenly stopped and asked hesitantly, "I wonder how His Majesty feels."

Seeing her happy yet uneasy look, the chief eunuch remembered that His Majesty had asked her to play the piano. A flash of pity flashed across his eyes, and then he smiled and said, "Your Majesty is in a good mood, but you should also be more careful and don't disobey His Majesty."

Lin Zhi nodded repeatedly: "Okay. Thank you for your advice, father-in-law."

The two entered the hall one after the other.

Not far away, Lu Ru and others who had been watching from afar saw Lin Zhi getting close to the eunuch on duty. When Chief Steward Gao came out and took the things from her hands and went in, they wondered why she didn't come back quickly since she had given her the things and what she was doing standing there.

Do I have to go in and meet His Majesty?

Now seeing her really go in, she almost felt dizzy. Lu Rong was shaking with anger: "It's over, she will definitely be punished by His Majesty, and we are all finished."

Lu Ru couldn't help but frown. This Third Miss really didn't know her own weight and was so bold. She thought to herself that if she was punished by His Majesty this time, she would probably die in the palace soon. She had to send a message to Prince Rui and the Miss as soon as possible.

When he turned around, he saw Lurong staring at him. He asked her what was wrong, but Lurong shook her head and turned away.

But she was thinking in her heart, no, she had to keep an eye on Lu Ru. In case Lu Ru sent a letter to the young lady, she had to see what she wrote to see if she mentioned her.

Lin Zhi walked into the imperial study and saw Xiao Yuan sitting on the dragon throne at the end of the spacious hall. He was wearing a black robe and reading a book in his hands.

Manager Gao whispered that she had arrived, and Lin Zhi followed suit and bowed.

"Well, let's start." Xiao Yuan said.

Lin Zhi was just wondering, but Chief Steward Gao looked at her, went into the inner room next door, took out a guqin, placed it in front of the emperor, and said, "Your Majesty, His Majesty asked you to play the guqin."

Lin Zhi had a blank expression as she looked at Xiao Yuan. He was staring at the book and not looking at them.

He took a deep breath, walked to the center of the hall and started playing the piano. As he played, he wondered if there was something wrong with his plan, or if Xiao Yuan was stubborn and there was no way out unless he got into his heart? He couldn't help but doubt himself and think of other strategies.

Song after song, when he was about to play the fifth song, he suddenly said, "Okay."

Lin Zhi paused, looked over in confusion, and saw the emperor said without raising his head, "Come here."
