“Father! Father!”

Emperor Jing Xuan was reviewing the memorials when Princess Hui An ran over angrily.

The eunuch at the door stopped her.

She glanced at him coldly. “How dare you! How dare you stop me! Do you want to die!”

Emperor Jing Xuan put down the memorial and gave Eunuch Fu a look.

Eunuch Fu personally welcomed Princess Hui An in.

“Father!” Princess Hui An pouted and walked around the desk to Emperor Jing Xuan. She grabbed his sleeve aggrievedly.

“Father, you have to stand up for Hui An…”

Emperor Jing Xuan looked at her in amusement. “Did you quarrel with Jingning again?”

Hui An had most likely lost to Jingning.

Princess Hui An said, “It’s not Jingning. Jingning didn’t even go to the palace school today! She took leave!”

Last night, the Empress was not feeling well, so Princess Jingning stayed up all night. Naturally, she could not get up this morning.

Emperor Jing Xuan had already ordered the imperial physicians to go to Kunning Palace to take a look. The empress was fine and could rest for a few days.

Emperor Jing Xuan asked, “Then what decision do you want me to make for you?”

It was as if he could stand up for Hui An if Jingning bullied her. In fact, as a father, he often could not interfere in the fight between the two children.

Princess Hui An complained, “Guo Lingxi hit me! She whipped me!”

“She whipped you? Where did she whip you?” Emperor Jing Xuan sat up straight and sized up Princess Hui An.

Princess Hui An gestured with her finger and said, “She just short of whipping me.”

Emperor Jing Xuan glared at her.

Princess Hui An said angrily, “Father, Guo Lingxi is really too much. It’s fine if she bullied me without a word, but she actually instigated a maidservant to contradict me! I couldn’t take it anymore and taught her a lesson on her behalf, so she whipped me! Father! You didn’t see it at that time. If someone hadn’t blocked it for me, my face would have been beaten into a pig’s head!”

It was Guo Lingxi again. This girl either fought with Jingning or was unhappy with Guo Lingxi. Didn’t the two of them compete privately last time and almost hurt someone in the end?

Why didn’t these two girls learn?

They pinched each other when they saw each other.

Emperor Jing Xuan followed her words and asked, “Who blocked it for you?”

Princess Hui An raised her eyebrows and said, “That little girl from the Qin family.”

“Which…” Emperor Jing Xuan paused and frowned.” Su Daya? ‘

Princess Hui An said, “It’s her!” “Then?” Emperor Jing Xuan asked.

Emperor Jing Xuan was speechless.

Princess Hui An hurriedly held her father’s shoulder. “Father, Father! It was

Guo Lingxi who whipped me first!”

Emperor Jing Xuan looked at her speechlessly. ‘You mean that the little girl of the Qin family whipped her back for you?”

Princess Hui An thought for a moment. “…Yes! She’s so loyal to me and listens to everything I say!”

It was really difficult for her to say two idioms in one breath but she managed

Emperor Jing Xuan asked calmly, “Isn’t she Jingning’s friend?”

Princess Hui An blinked. “In the past, yes. Now, she’s relying on me! For me, she offended Guo Lingxi! From now on, she’s all mine!” Emperor Jing Xuan held his forehead. “She’s following your horse’s lead.”

Princess Hui An whispered, “But Father, I’m not a horse.”

Emperor Jing Xuan was speechless.

The news that Su Xiaoxiao had beaten up Princess Lingxi quickly spread in the harem. The Empress Dowager was admiring her precious great-grandson’s talent painting when she heard a report. “Physician Su beat up Princess Lingxi.” The Empress Dowager’s face darkened.

In Zhaoyang Hall, Princess Lingxi’s maidservant had finished complaining and was waiting for the Grand Empress Dowager to deal with Su Xiaoxiao.

Suddenly, the palace servant reported, “Eunuch Cheng from the Yongshou Palace is here.”

Eunuch Cheng was the Empress Dowager’s trusted aide.

Usually, there was almost no movement between the two palaces.

Bai Xihe pondered for a moment and said, “Let him in.”

Princess Lingxi looked at the door.

Eunuch Cheng slowly walked in with a small medicine bottle and bowed respectfully to Bai Xihe before bowing to Princess Lingxi.

Bai Xihe asked, “Eunuch Cheng suddenly came to my Zhaoyang Hall. Does the

Empress Dowager have any instructions?”

Eunuch Cheng said, “When the Empress Dowager heard that Princess Lingxi was injured, she was extremely worried and specially ordered me to send medicine.”

Bai Xihe gave Little Yunzi a look. “Got it. Lingxi is a naughty child. She’s embarrassed herself in front of the Empress Dowager.” Little Yunzi went forward and accepted the medicine.

Princess Lingxi frowned.

Eunuch Cheng smiled and said, “No wonder… The Empress Dowager said that Physician Su didn’t hold back. She will discipline her well. If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back to serve the Empress Dowager first. Physician Su is going to perform acupuncture on the Empress Dowager later. I have to stand guard.”

Bai Xihe said, “Little Yunzi, send Eunuch Cheng off.”

Little Yunzi sent Eunuch Cheng out.

Princess Lingxi looked at Bai Xihe.

Bai Xihe sighed softly. “As you can see, the Empress Dowager personally supported Miss Qin. If I insist on punishing her, I’ll be going against the Empress Dowager.”

The maidservant was indignant. “But she…”

“Shut up!” Princess Lingxi berated.

The maid lowered her head and swallowed her words.

Bai Xihe said helplessly, “The Empress Dowager has been sick for many years, and it’s especially dangerous this year. Miss Qin’s medical skills are brilliant, and the Empress Dowager is still counting on her to treat her phoenix physique. At this juncture, it’s not convenient for me to touch her.”

Princess Lingxi said softly, “Got it, Auntie.”

She sat over and leaned into Bai Xihe’s arms. She said dependently, “Mother is sick and can’t take care of us. Auntie watched me and Brother grow up. In Lingxi’s heart, Auntie is just like Mother. Auntie, don’t dislike Lingxi. Lingxi won’t cause trouble for Auntie anymore.”

Bai Xi sighed softly. “It’s not that I don’t like you. Don’t think too much.”

On the way out of the palace, the maidservant muttered, “Princess, don’t you think that the Grand Empress Dowager is a little strange today?” Princess Lingxi asked, “What’s strange?”

The maidservant said, “The Grand Empress Dowager seems very tired.”

Princess Lingxi said, “Her nephew left the capital last night. She probably didn’t sleep the entire night.”

The maidservant sighed. “No wonder the Grand Empress Dowager was not in the mood to stand up for you today. The Grand Empress Dowager was not like this in the past. She hated to see you suffer the most. Princess, do you still remember how you rolled down the steps when you were eight years old? That was the first time the Grand Empress Dowager was angry at His Majesty.”

Princess Lingxi recalled, “Why don’t I remember? It was at the Empress Dowager’s birthday. His Majesty brought me over to play. I was frightened by the Second Prince, who was pretending to be a ghost, and lost my footing and fell down the steps.”

The maidservant said, “His Majesty punished His Second Highness very badly, so I don’t understand why the Grand Empress Dowager doesn’t mind when it comes to that girl?”

Princess Lingxi’s smile faded. “Didn’t I say that it’s inconvenient to argue? Auntie dotes on me. She won’t dote on others..”
