After becoming a concubine, she lived a miserable life every day.

Chapter 126: Don’t pinch my face. If you do, I’ll pull your beard!

Hearing this, everyone present was stunned.

Yuehua and Fanghua looked at each other, and the surprise in their eyes became more and more obvious.

They had already made plans for a big fight between the two of them. They were just children. No matter how mature they were, they were still children. Children usually deal with things like this by fighting. That's what they thought, but they didn't expect that the Third Young Master was actually apologizing to the Fifth Young Master!

Qi You was a little surprised, but not too surprised after all.

After all, Qi Zhao was not the same person as her biological mother. At least he could distinguish right from wrong. However, with Chen between them, this life would be the same as the previous one.

Before Qi You could speak, Qi Zhao spoke again, "I'm sorry, it's my mother's fault. I know it's no use for me to say this now, but I just want to say something to you." After that, without waiting for Qi You to reply, he turned and ran away.

Yuehua hurriedly followed.

Xiao Yuanzi looked in the direction where Qi Zhao was running away, then looked at his master who was standing there in silence.

"Let's go." Qi You said, and walked forward, as if nothing had happened just now.

Fanghua followed silently without saying a word.

Here, Qinglian was helping her young master pack things with red and swollen eyes.

She had known about the assassination attempt on the young master in the past two days. She really didn't expect that the young master would encounter such a thing when he came to the palace. The young master never said anything, and she had no connections in the palace, so she had no idea that she had failed to live up to the master's trust and did not take good care of the young master, causing him to almost fall into Chen's hands.

At the beginning, the young master didn't let her follow him, and she should have been tougher. But even if she thought so and remembered the look in the young master's eyes, she would still be timid. She didn't dare to refuse at all, let alone follow him forcibly. Qinglian despised her too much.

When Fanghua arrived, she saw Qinglian's eyes were swollen from crying, and she felt a little sympathy for her for a moment.

Qinglian's personality is obviously not suited to serving a master like the Fifth Young Master, and of course she is not suitable for this either.

"Sister Fanghua is here." When Qinglian saw Fanghua coming in, she quickly wiped away her tears and greeted her with a forced smile.

Qi You certainly didn't come to pack up. Qinglian had been taking care of his food, clothing, housing and transportation during this period, and Aunt Fanghua, who was beside his grandmother, was also taking care of him. He didn't need to do any of these little things.

Not long after I sat down, there was a knock on the door.

Xiao Yuanzi hurried out to open the door and saw that it was the second-class maid beside Concubine Xian, so she asked, "Sister, is there anything I can help you with?"

"Hello, Eunuch Xiao Yuanzi. Eunuch Li from the Emperor's side is here to pick up the Fifth Young Master. He said the Emperor wants to see him."

Hearing this, Qi You in the room put down his cup and stood up and said, "Let's go."

In the main hall of Minghua Palace, when Eunuch Li saw Qi You coming, he stood up and greeted him, smiling, "Fifth Young Master, how are you?"

"Let's go." Qi You didn't know why his royal grandfather wanted to see him.

Xiao Yuanzi followed Eunuch Li Jin and walked behind Qi You. The three of them walked there. Along the way, they met many concubines and little princes and princesses. These people all looked at Qi You from a distance and did not come close to look at him.

Qi You was also happy to be quiet and didn't have to perform the ceremony. He walked calmly under the gaze of everyone.

Xiao Yuanzi rarely saw such a scene. He held his breath for a moment. In order to avoid others seeing his nervousness, his face became even colder.

Eunuch Li saw the performance of the master and servant, and then his mouth curled up. He could only say that they were worthy of being master and servant, and they were really a good match.

This kid is also very good. I heard that when the two of them were assassinated, this kid even protected the Fifth Young Master with his life. He is a loyal person, and his personality is really good. If he hadn't been adopted by the Fifth Young Master, he would have wanted to adopt him as his godson.

Xiao Yuanzi was sensitive to begin with, and even more so after learning martial arts. Naturally, he felt Li Jin's gaze on him, but he pretended not to know.

Soon, the three of them arrived at the Qinzheng Hall.

Xiao Yuanzi was standing outside the hall waiting, and Qi You followed Li Jin in.

"Your Majesty, the Fifth Young Master is here."

Emperor Jingyuan was busy reviewing memorials. Hearing the voice, he raised his head with a kind smile on his face, "You'er, come here."

Seeing this, Li Jin hurriedly stood aside.

Upon hearing this, Qi You obediently walked towards his grandfather the Emperor. As soon as he got closer, he was hugged. Qi You was stunned for a moment.

The royal grandfather was very kind to him, but he had never hugged him so intimately. What was happening today?

Qi You opened his clear eyes wide and looked at his grandfather, whose temples were gray and he was getting older, with a slight doubt in his eyes.

Emperor Jingyuan held his grandson's soft little body for a while before letting him go. Noticing a look of confusion on his usually calm little face, he smiled for a moment and pinched his cheek.

"I finally feel like a child now."

Hearing this, Qi You said calmly, "My grandson is just a child."

"Yes, yes, you are a child, so how about pinching your grandfather's face again?" As he said that, Emperor Jingyuan stretched out his claws and Qi You quickly dodged them.

"Hey, don't pinch my face. If you do, I'll pull your beard!" Qi You glared at Emperor Jingyuan, the old naughty boy, and took a step back.

"Hey! You dare to threaten me? I think you are getting bolder and bolder! What can I do if I pinch you?" After saying that, the devil's claws quickly pinched Qi You's face, and then he laughed triumphantly, "Hahahaha."

Qi You lowered his head, raised the corner of his mouth, and murmured, "Like an old naughty boy."

Just now, he didn't dodge on purpose. Just pinch him. He doesn't hate him anyway.

"What did you say?" Emperor Jingyuan frowned deliberately and asked with a stern face.

Qi You raised his head, clear eyes and innocent face, "Nothing, what did the Royal Grandfather want to say to his grandson?"

"Well, can't I come to you if I have nothing to do?"

"My grandson didn't say that."

"Come, play chess with me."

Qi You nodded after hearing this.

Li Jin quickly prepared everything.

The grandfather and grandson fought back and forth for about an hour and a half, and finally ended with Qi You saying, "You win."

Emperor Jingyuan looked at his grandson who had a calm but slightly regretful expression in front of him, and laughed, "As expected, the old ones are the wisest. You little brat, you are too naive to win against me. I intentionally let you win before."

"Ah, yes, yes, you are the best. I, your grandson, am willing to admit that you are better than me."

After playing for a while, Qi You felt happy both physically and mentally, with a smile on his face, and he followed his grandfather's words.

"Okay, it's almost done. Li Jin is waiting at the door to take you back to Minghua Palace." As expected, the kid Lao Wu had already entered the palace, and there were still many things that needed to be dealt with later.

Upon hearing this, Qi You bowed to Emperor Jingyuan and said, "Grandfather, I will leave first."

"Go away, it's not like we won't see each other anymore." It seems that this boy's birthday will be in a few days. Then he will have to go to the study to study. Isn't it easy for him to meet him?

Qi You raised his eyebrows, bowed again and followed him out the door.

As soon as he went out, he saw Li Jin standing at the door waiting for him, and there was also a carriage in sight.
