Your Highness's Beloved Medical-skilled Princess novel Chapter 48

reading more In the Queen's Kun Palace.

After Prince Wenqing and Chu Mingcui entered the imperial palace, they went to greet the Queen first.

As soon as Chu Mingcui entered the hall, she saw Queen sitting with her hands on her chest, looking pale.

Chu Mingcui had always been considerate in front of Queen. After greeting her, the Queen was still unhappy.

Chu Mingcui knew that Queen had something on her mind, so she said to Prince Wenqing with a smile, "Didn't Prince Wenqing say that he would recite a new poem to Prince Wenlu? Go ahead."

Prince Wenqing didn't like to write poems, but Prince Wenlu liked them. Prince Wenqing and Prince Wenlu were the children of Queen. In order to make this brother love him,he began to learn to write poems.

Now that he had a new one, he wished he could show off in front of Prince Wenlu. Hearing Chu Mingcui's words, he left with a smile.

As soon as Prince Wenqing left, Chu Mingcui sent away the servants in the hall. She sat beside the Queen and asked, "Aunt, what happened?"

Seeing that her son had left, the Queen said with hatred, "I have been married to His Majesty for more than 20 years. I didn't have dinner alone with me after the big wedding. Tonight, he issued an imperial edict to Yuan Qingling to have dinner together."

Chu Mingcui turned pale with fright. "Yuan Qingling? Didn't she get brought into the imperial palace to ask questions? Why isn't she locked up?"

She did not ask when she entered the imperial palace. She thought that according to the rules, even if Yuan Qingling was not imprisoned, she would be locked up in the dark room first. When she found out that she had been stripped of her position as Princess Chu, the rest of the punishment would be dealt with according to her status as a civilian.

Queen Chu said coldly, "Close? Now that she and His Majesty are having dinner alone, I wonder what she will say in front of His Majesty."

Chu Mingcui was slightly shocked. Yuan Qingling seemed to have become much smarter recently. If she mentioned her doubts to the Emperor, the consequences would be unimaginable.

She turned to look at Queen Chu, her eyes flashing with cunning light. "Aunt, do you feel dizzy?"

Dinner is set up in the Dragon palace, near by the Royal Workroom.

Yuan Qingling hoped that Prince Rui could have dinner with them. At least one more person would be enough.

However, when Mu Ru led her to the Dragon palace, the fire of her hope was extinguished.

There was a small sandalwood round table. If it weren't for the tableware, Yuan Qingling would have thought it was a tea table for drinking tea. No, the tea table was too small. At most, it could serve one dish.

Such a small table was very close to them, even if they sat across from each other.

Now, Emperor Mingyuan was sitting by the round table with his back straight and his hands on his knees. He raised his sharp eyes to look at her.

Perhaps he wanted to try to be gentle, but he had been dignified for too long, so he couldn't do it.

He just slightly bent his lips and froze. This expression made people feel even colder.

Yuan Qingling slowly walked over and was about to bow when Emperor Mingyuan said, "Don't stand on ceremony. Sit down."

"Oh," Yuan Qingling said. She strode over to the dining table and sat down carefully.

"There's no need to be so reserved. It's an ordinary meal." Seeing that she was nervous, Emperor Mingyuan comforted her.

How could Yuan Qingling not be nervous? It wasn't said that only father-in-law and daughter-in-law had dinner together, let alone that you were the emperor.

"Yes!" She answered.

When she came here, she had thought that Emperor Mingyuan must have something to ask her when he asked her to come for this meal. Her guess was exactly the same as Yu Wenhao's. He just wanted to ask about Prince Yu’s residence, about Yu Wenhao's movements, who he knew, and so on.

She had also thought of a proper explanation in advance.

Emperor Mingyuan did not ask, but said to Mu Ru calmly, "Let's eat!"
