Chapter 1171: Jinx
Mo Lian blinked as he beamed at the little fellow.
Qiao Mu glanced at him, nodding without understanding the implications.
Her muddleheaded state was truly too amusing.
Mo Lian buried his face in her hair as he held her, his body trembling from his chuckling.
Huifeng, who was hiding on the roof, involuntarily rolled his eyes when he saw this, chiding in his heart: Your Highness, quickly gather back your principles!
“Qiaoqiao, your hands are too greasy. Don’t wipe them on my face.” Mo Lian helplessly grasped her small hands and grabbed the napkin to wipe them for the little fellow.
Suddenly, he heard Shaoyao’s earth-shaking voice outside. “Her Majesty the Queen has arrived! Commandery Princess Yi’an, you have also come!!”
Xiao’xi’zi, who was standing by the door, was nearly nonplussed by Shaoyao’s loud voice.
Meanwhile, the queen, who had been helped all the way here by Nanny Qing, paused when she heard this. She then looked suspiciously at Shaoyao, who was shouting at the top of her lungs. “Your master is inside, so why are you standing outside the door? Are you on the lookout?”
Shaoyao really wanted to slap herself. Why in the world did she say that she had to be out the lookout outside in case Her Majesty the Queen came…
She really freakin’ came right now!
The crisp clatter of dishes came from inside the room.
Xiao’xi’zi hastily turned and ran inside with mincing steps. He also cried out with a hasty salute, “It’s bad, it’s bad, Your Highness. Her Majesty the Queen has come.”
“It’s bad that this queen has come?” Queen Zhao glared at Xiao’xi’zi imposingly.
Xiao’xi’zi’s knees gave in, and he scrambled to the crown prince’s feet. “This servant made a slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue.”
Let time rewind back to one minute ago. When His Highness the Crown Prince, who had been messing about with his wife, heard Shaoyao’s shout. At that time, he nearly dropped the shrimp that he had shoved near the little fellow’s mouth.
Darling Qiao hastily stuck out her small tongue and caught the shrimp between her teeth, chewing twice before swallowing it down.
Afterwards, the crown prince hastily grabbed the napkin and rushed to wipe his wifey’s small hands and mouth. He also put himself in order within a minute and then pulled his wife to her feet.
During this period of time, Queen Zhao had stepped across the Eastern Palace’s high threshold and walked in with a line of royal maids and nannies behind her.
At a glance, she saw her son walking over with a smile to welcome her.
“Royal Mother, why have you come.”
Queen Zhao creased her brows as she looked at her son. “Royal Mother heard that you found your young crown prince consort, so Royal Mother came to see her.”
Mo Lian quickly reached behind him to yank the little blockhead’s hand.
Qiao Mu walked up beside him in a daze, sweeping her gaze at the group of women in front of her in incomprehension.
With this glance, she felt that the line of royal maids all looked the same.
Yi’an stood at the head of the line of royal maids, standing beside Queen Zhao. However, she trailed a half-step behind the queen to show respect.
Xiao Qiao, that child, also grouped her as a royal maid, so her gaze swept across Yi’an’s face.
On the contrary, Yi’an grabbed this opportunity to scrutinize Qiao Mu.
However, the outcome caused a faint gloom to surface in her heart.
This young crown prince consort looked a bit on the younger side, but her appearance was peerless and refined. She… she was no match for her!
There was completely no contest!
“Qiaoqiao, this is Royal Mother. Her name is Royal Mother, so call her Royal Mother.” The crown prince hoodwinked his wife in a whisper.
Consequently, our dear Qiao Mu stiffly called out to Queen Zhao, “Royal Mother.”
Queen Zhao: …
“Mhm,” Queen Zhao responded.
