NovelEnglishChapter 416: Tea
Hearing what the Queen said, Gu Chaoyan got startled. She did not mention about the Empress Dowager’s inquiry about the prescription, so it meant that the Queen had her own mole in Cining Palace?
And the reason why the Queen was asking her was because she trusted her, and did not care that she knew about her mole at Cining Palace?
She got really moved. She was moved that Zhou Huaijin defended her and that the Queen did not treat her as an outsider.
Gu Chaoyan felt like crying.
“I did.” Gu Chaoyan answered, trying to conceal her utter gentleness.
“Oh, I was too late.” The Queen said in disappointment. She felt that it was a pity.

Then she said, “Queen, you were not late. The Empress Dowager would always need this prescription no matter what. She would always have a way to get the prescription.”
The Queen nodded. She was pretty aware of this matter. It was lucky that the young Chaoyan was aware of this point as well and that she could accept the truth. At this moment, the Queen felt that Chaoyan was more understanding and concernable than what Huaijin had told her.
“What are you going to do in the future?” The Queen asked worriedly.
Gu Chaoyan felt what the Queen said seemed to have been so familiar to her. She had been jealous of Gu Ruxue who received her mother’s love. Gu Ruxue might not have been a nice girl, but at least, she was loved by her mother. Gu Chaoyan thought that she was never going to get such love in her life, but now, Gu Chaoyan was very satisfied with what she had got right now.
So she explained patiently. “Queen, do you think that there is really anyone in this world that can cure the patients that can’t be cured by the imperial doctors and any other doctors with a few ancestral prescriptions? And is there any doctor that can save people with prescriptions only? We are using our own abilities all along, and prescriptions are just add-on, also...”
The Queen was listening to what Gu Chaoyan was saying, and she was very curious about what she was about to say.
“Also... there is no such a thing as a prescription in my hands.” Gu Chaoyan smiled naughtily.
The Queen had not fathomed what she meant, but soon she realized what happened.
She laughed loudly.
“You are different from what Huaijin told me!” The Queen said with a smile.
As they were speaking, they came to the Weiyang Palace.
“What are you talking about? Laughing so loudly?” Xia Yinghan had been worried whether something wrong was going on, so she kept looking about at Weiyang Palace to see if they had returned. Hearing their laughter, she also saw the smiling faces upon the Queen and Chaoyan.
Now, Xia Yinghan was utterly relieved.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt seemed that Chaoyan did not get bullied on her visit to Cining Palace. She was indeed a wonderful and smart girl.
The Queen patted Xia Yinghan’s arms. “Yinghan, let’s get in and talk.”
The three of them walked into Weiyang Palace and sat down.
Susu was pouring the tea for them.
Gu Chaoyan finally realized why the Queen would hurry to help her at the palace – it was Xia Yinghan who had turned to her for help, worrying that something would happen to her.
She remembered what Xia Yinghan had done for her. She was grateful.
When Susu poured them the tea, Gu Chaoyan subconsciously sipped it and then frowned. The tea....
