Quick Wear: Explosive Change! The cannon fodder female supporting role is done with it

Chapter 385 Cannon Fodder Substitute & Cold Tyrant 28
Lin Zhi felt that there was something wrong with the way Xiao Yuan looked at her today, as if there was something hidden in his eyes. When he looked at her again, she couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, is there something wrong with my face?"

I touched her face and found that her makeup was smudged.
Xiao Yuan raised his hand and took her hand away: "My beloved concubine, your skin is delicate. Even after applying the medicine, it hasn't disappeared."

Lin Zhi's face flushed red, she blamed him for being so strong, but she was too embarrassed to say it. Then she saw him take out a familiar small porcelain bottle, dipped his index finger in the ointment, and gently massaged his neck, and asked casually, "My beloved concubine, do you have anything to say to me?"

Lin Zhi paused and looked over. This was the second time Xiao Yuan asked her this.

Various thoughts flashed through her mind. Could it be that Xiao Yuan already knew about it and was waiting for her to confess? His eyes flickered, "Your Majesty, what do you mean?"

It's impossible to confess. What if he's just trying to trick her?

Xiao Yuan glanced at her, turned her face back with the hand that had not touched the medicine, and chuckled: "The end of the year is approaching, I want to ask my beloved concubine if there is anything you want? Tell me, I will satisfy you."

Lin Zhi thought to herself that it was fortunate that she had not said it out loud just now, and said in a tender voice: "Your Majesty has given me everything I wanted, and I don't lack anything."

Just as she finished applying the ointment, she turned around and put her arms around Xiao Yuan's neck: "I only hope that your majesty is healthy and the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and I will be satisfied."

Xiao Yuan looked at her, smiled, and pinched her face: "In that case, I will take you to the Imperial Manor in a few days. The hot springs there are very good."

Lin Zhi was surprised: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Xiao Yuan narrowed his deep eyes and curled his lips: "My beloved, as long as you are happy at that time." He pinched her face and kissed her. It seemed that he liked this way after that night. Although Lin Zhi was shy, she responded actively.

In the end, if the palace servant hadn't knocked on the door, the two would have accidentally shot each other.

On her way back, she patted her burning face, and the cool wind slowly brought her temperature down. Then she returned to Cuiwei Palace and asked the palace maids to make arrangements, waiting to go to the imperial manor to soak in the hot springs.

In the next two days, someone outside the palace wrote a letter to Lin Zhi, as if nothing had happened, asking her to behave herself in the palace.

She sneered and burned the letter.

It was not until the day before they were about to go to Huangzhuang that the Lin family handed her a sign, saying that it was the end of the year and they were giving her a New Year gift.

After all, on the surface she was the legitimate daughter of the Lin family, and the fourth concubine, so she naturally couldn't let anyone gossip about her according to etiquette.

Lin Zhi agreed and waited in the palace, but the emperor arrived before anyone else. When he heard that someone from the Lin family was coming, he expressed his interest in meeting them together.

Meng was led into Cuiwei Palace by the palace servants. She entered the palace this time because, firstly, she had to follow the etiquette and, secondly, from her daughter's words, she felt that this concubine might have some hidden thoughts in front of her, so she had to use Concubine Li to warn her again.

But as soon as I entered the hall, I saw His Majesty was there too.

The two of them sat very close to each other. The emperor played with the concubine's hand lazily with his eyes and gestured very intimately. The concubine's pretty face turned slightly red, but a closer look at the emperor's appearance revealed that he was even more majestic than Prince Rui.

She was startled for a moment, until Xiao Yuan glanced at her calmly, then she came to her senses and knelt down to pay her respects - and also to the concubine's daughter, with an extremely ugly expression when she kowtowed. She had never thought that she would have to bow down to the concubine's daughter!
In front of His Majesty, she couldn't say anything. She could only ask about the concubine's health and then take out the list of New Year gifts.

Xiao Yuan became interested: "Oh? Let me see what good things Minister Lin gave to my beloved concubine."

Meng froze instantly. She and the concubine knew each other very well. All the goods she got were inferior. Even if the concubine knew, she couldn't say anything. If His Majesty saw it...

Xiao Yuan flipped it over casually, his upturned lips lowered, and he threw the booklet on the table: "It seems that I gave Minister Lin too little salary."

Meng knelt down with a start: "Your Majesty, I must have taken the wrong book. The one I gave Your Majesty is another book, which will be delivered tomorrow." Lin Zhi covered her smile with a handkerchief. She knew what Meng was up to without even looking. It was a pity that she didn't expect the emperor to be here. She could only consider herself unlucky.

Xiao Yuan: "Oh, I see."

Meng nodded repeatedly and did not dare to stay any longer to threaten Linzhi. After saying so, she quickly apologized and left the palace.

After the people left, Lin Zhi pretended to plead with the emperor: "Mother has always treated me very well. She has always given me all the good things since I was a child. I am afraid that I really took the wrong thing this time. Please don't blame me, Your Majesty."

Xiao Yuan squeezed her hand and said, "Oh." That was all.

He had dinner in Cuiwei Palace and then returned to his bedroom. Linzhi wanted to laugh when she thought about how Meng looked when she left. After thinking about it, she called Songzi over and asked him to ask Xiao Dezi to go and see Aunt Li.

It has been snowing recently and the weather is cold. I'm going to see if there is anything missing and send it over so that Aunt Li won't be reluctant to give it away.

Unexpectedly, Songzi ran in sweating profusely, knelt down with a pale face, and said, "Madam, my husband, my wife is gone!"

Lin Zhi stood up: "What did you say?"

I heard that Xiao Dezi went out of the palace to buy things this morning. He originally went to the yard as instructed by Songzi, but who knew that it was empty. I heard that no one had been seen there for two or three days.

They usually leave the palace every three days. I saw them last time, but this time they suddenly disappeared.

Lin Zhi stood there blankly.

When he came to his senses, he saw Songzi hitting his head with bangs, and it was all broken: "Your Majesty, it's all my fault. I didn't take good care of the Madam..." His forehead was bruised.

She asked him to get up and try to find someone first. Thinking of Meng's entry into the palace today, she even suspected that she was found by the Lin family and told about this matter in the palace. But because the emperor was there, she didn't say anything. But now that things have come to this, she can only go look for her first.

Songzi nodded repeatedly and promised to find it, otherwise he would die as a token of atonement.

Lin Zhi didn't hear it and was anxious. She wanted to leave the palace immediately to look for him in person, but she had to leave the palace with Xiao Yuan tomorrow, so she had to suppress her anxiety.

She hardly slept that night, and in the morning there was a dark spot under her eyes.

Even when he and Xiao Yuan got on the same carriage, escorted by palace guards, and quietly left the palace and headed for the imperial farm outside the city, he was still absent-minded.

"Why are there dark circles under my beloved's eyes? What happened?" Xiao Yuan was sitting opposite the carriage.

Lin Zhi forced a difficult smile and responded, "I was so excited to go out of the palace with Your Majesty to soak in the hot springs today that I couldn't sleep all night." She glanced at him and said, "Your Majesty, are we staying here for one night and returning to the palace tomorrow morning?"

If she returned to the palace earlier, she could send someone to look for Aunt Li earlier.

She was very worried about the disappearance for no reason. She was afraid that it was someone from the Lin family, and she was also afraid that it might be Prince Rui. If so, then everything she had done would be exposed, and Aunt Li's life might be in danger.

Xiao Yuan looked at the anxiety hidden between the woman's eyebrows, and the smile on his lips deepened, as if he had noticed something: "I haven't been here for a long time, so I have to stay a few more days. Besides, my beloved concubine also said that she likes to take a hot spring bath, so I have to satisfy her."

Lin Zhi's smile became more and more forced: "Thank you, thank you, Your Majesty."

Xiao Yuan pretended not to see her embarrassed expression and played with her hands. When they arrived at the imperial manor, he pulled the people out of the carriage and entered the manor.
