C18 The Women Are Not Taught

"Empress Dowager, you worry too much. In the past, Madam would often come to the palace to see Empress Dowager."

Xiao Yin was stunned for a moment. She looked at Luo Xue and thought of Helian Yichen's cold killing gaze, and lowered her head and said.

"See, it's just that it's a little annoying. I don't know what to say."

As Luo Xue spoke, she went out. She reminded herself in her mind that when she saw her mother, she had to call her mother. She could not call her mother, nor could she hug her and kiss her. That would scare people.

"Mother, you're here."

The moment Luo Xue walked out, she saw a noble lady walking out from the courtyard and warmly welcomed her.

"Mother, there are no outsiders here. There's no need to bow."

Before Madame Situ could bow, Luo Xue went up and supported her.

Although she was not a real mother, her body was born in October. She did not dare to really ask for a bow. In China, etiquette was very important, but filial piety was even more important.

"Xue Er, what happened in the palace last night? Why did the Emperor say that you were frightened?" As soon as she entered the room, Madame Situ asked nervously.

Luo Xue's heart skipped a beat. It was indeed Helian Yichen. It seemed that he was suspecting her words. He probably wanted to let Madame Situ test her.

This was a really cautious Emperor. It seemed that this man had some brains, and was not like an ordinary useless person.

"It's nothing. It's just that last night …"

"Xue Er, what's wrong with your neck? Is it the Emperor? "

Luo Xue originally wanted to brush it off, but she did not expect that Madame Situ would see the finger mark on her neck. She also blamed Luo Xue for being too hasty when she got up and did not look in the mirror.

"It's nothing. It's just that there was an assassin in the palace last night, and my daughter almost lost her life. Fortunately, the Emperor arrived in time." At this time, Luo Xue could only make up a story to dispel Madame Situ's worry.

"No wonder the Emperor asked me to enter the palace to accompany you. So that's how it is. Did the assassin get caught?" Madame Situ looked at her daughter nervously, as if she had accepted Luo Xue's explanation.

"Let's get to the bottom of this. Mother, sit down. Xiao Yin, pour some tea for the Madam." Luo Xue was not familiar with the palace maid of Phoenix Cry Palace, and even her name was not clear. The only person who could be used was Xiao Yin.

"Daughter, why don't you tell the Emperor that you will stay at home for a few days? You are in the palace, and I can't rest easy. Now that something like this has happened, I am really scared." Madame Situ's tears were flowing out.

It was no wonder. The children were all the flesh of the mother, especially this little daughter. After marrying into the palace, she had not returned home once. Seeing her daughter's emaciated figure, her heart ached.

"Mother, you don't have to worry. With the Emperor here, my daughter will be fine. Don't worry, the Emperor will protect my daughter."

"That's right. Madam, don't worry. I will protect the Empress."

Suddenly hearing Helian Yichen's voice, Luoxue was startled. It seemed that he was good at scaring people. Didn't he pay attention to decorum last night? Why didn't he have anyone to shout at? Did he deliberately come to eavesdrop?

"Your subordinate greets the emperor. Long live …"

"Madam Situ, please don't stand on ceremony. This is not the Imperial Court, there is no need to be formal. Empress, you were frightened last night. I have decided to set up a banquet three days later to calm you down. At that time, everyone in the residence will come to the palace to accompany you for a day."

At this moment, Si Helian Yichen looked like a good husband. Unfortunately, this move was useless against Luoxue. Setting up a banquet? From her point of view, it was most likely a Feast of Hongmen.

"The emperor is kind-hearted."

Luo Xue raised her head, the corner of her lips raised in a provocative manner. He just wanted to play with her. Anyway, there was nothing else to do.

Receiving Luoxue's provocative gaze, Helian Yichen frowned slightly. His motto was that he would destroy the people he couldn't control. Whether it was a man or a woman, there would be no exceptions.

The reason why he wanted to set up a banquet and test her was to see if this woman had been taught. If she really wasn't Situ Luoxue, then he could only destroy her.

Madam Situ was between the two of them and felt very awkward. She knew that her daughter was fine, so she left not long after Helian Yichen arrived at Phoenix Cry Palace.

"All of you can leave."

After Madam Situ left, Helian Yichen told the palace servants to leave, leaving only him and Luoxue in the room.

"Does Your Majesty have any more questions?" Luoxue sat calmly on the bed with a contemptuous smile on her face.

"Situ Luoxue, I'll ask you again, are you Situ Hong's daughter?" Helian Yichen stared at Luoxue with his eagle-like eyes, not letting go of the slightest hesitation on her face.

"Didn't I already say it? Your Majesty, don't tell me that you have a hearing problem at such a young age. "

Luoxue replied without hesitation. No matter what, she did not like to repeat herself. Furthermore, she did not like to joke around with people who were not her friends.

"Are you really not Situ Luoxue?" Helian Yichen's tone seemed to be a little regretful.

"You are the emperor. If you say yes, then yes. If you say no, then no. The most important thing is what the emperor thinks. "

Although she still did not understand what Helian Yichen wanted to do with her, she would not lie because of this.

"You are very smart. Then you better listen to what I am going to say next!" Helian Yichen's serious expression faded away, and what replaced it was a bloodthirsty coldness.
