She knew that Li Wan had been trained by her to be as timid and cowardly as a little mouse. How could she be so natural and unrestrained and even write such a poem? It seemed that this State Preceptor was just so-so. For vanity, he actually let Li Wan recite his own poem.
However, Jiujiu did learn the Emperor's manner very well. However, it also saved her from the difficulties when she attended the court. It seemed that the State Preceptor was really something.
After glancing at Jiujiu, the Empress asked Jasmine to give Jiujiu the osmanthus cake made by the small kitchen. Then she asked someone to send Jiujiu away.
Jiujiu looked at the portion of osmanthus cake in Jasmine's hands that was no longer hot and did not look very fresh. A mocking smile appeared in her eyes.
The Empress used to control Li Wan too much. Even if Mo Ling came and Jiujiu changed, she still felt that Jiujiu was the same as before.
The Empress used the osmanthus cake as an excuse to let her come, but the osmanthus cake she gave her was an osmanthus cake that she didn't know where it came from and was no longer fresh.
Jiujiu didn't know whether the Empress was too confident in her relationship with Li Wan or too confident in herself.
However, what Jiujiu didn't know was that the osmanthus cake the Empress asked Jasmine to give her was indeed made by the small kitchen. It was just that Li Wan was too timid in the past. No matter what Jasmine gave her, she would not resist. Over time, Jasmine habitually took the good things the Empress gave Li Wan and exchanged them with her own bad things.
When Jiujiu went back, Mo Ling was already waiting in the room. When she saw Jiujiu come in and saw the food box carried by the maid behind Jiujiu, she asked, "This is?"
"State Preceptor, this is the osmanthus cake the Empress made for the Crown Prince."
The maid behind her didn't know the situation of the osmanthus cake and said it directly.
Mo Ling didn't have a good impression of the Empress. After hearing that the osmanthus cake was given by the Empress, she opened the food box in front of everyone.
Seeing that the osmanthus cake in the food box was cold and even a little stale, Mo Ling's face instantly darkened.
During this period of time, Mo Ling not only had to take care of Jiujiu's study progress, but also took care of Jiujiu's food and living. She was even worried that Jiujiu's food was a little less. But the Empress was very powerful. She used the osmanthus cake as an excuse to call Jiu, but the Empress gave Jiu the osmanthus cake was old and even stale.
Even if Mo Ling was good-tempered, she was still instantly.
The young maidservant who was carrying the food box for Jasmine was stunned when she saw the osmanthus cake in the food box.
Molly had asked her to help Jiujiu bring back the osmanthus cake. She had never thought that the osmanthus cake inside would look like this. The little servant girl's face instantly turned pale and her legs trembled in fear. She looked at Molly's dark face and said with trembling lips, "Grand Tutor, this, this has nothing to do with me. I don't know. I didn't eat it secretly."
Seeing that the servant girl was so scared that she was about to cry, Jiujiu knew that this matter was either the Empress or Jasmine's doing.
However, although the Empress didn't treat Li Wan very well, Li Wan was her child after all. Moreover, the Empress didn't need to personally make the osmanthus cake, so she would probably still give it to her.
Then, the osmanthus cake must be Jasmine's doing.
Wan Cui was bold enough, but Jiujiu didn't expect that there was always someone better than Wan Cui. Jasmine was much bolder than Wan Cui. She even dared to covet the osmanthus cake that the Empress asked her to give. She was really something.
Jiujiu looked at the little servant girl who was so scared that she was about to cry and comforted her softly, "I know this matter has nothing to do with you."
Jiujiu wanted to settle the matter peacefully, but Mo Ling didn't want to let it go. She raised her hand and pointed at a guard casually, saying, "Call the Empress here."
When Mo Ling said to call the Empress here, her tone was like calling a kitten or a puppy. However, no one felt that there was anything wrong with Mo Ling's attitude. Instead, they all took it for granted.
However, the guard who was called out by Mo Ling didn't feel anything at all. He directly turned around and walked towards Qiankun Palace.
Seeing this, Jiujiu could only say to the little servant girl who was carrying the food box, "You can stay here with me from now on."
Since Mo Ling asked, the Empress naturally couldn't settle the matter peacefully. She also couldn't directly expose Jasmine. Therefore, this little servant girl was likely to become Jasmine's scapegoat.
Jiujiu knew that no matter what her attitude was today, what awaited this little servant girl was not a good ending. Jiujiu really couldn't bear to let such an innocent person lose her life because of her. So, she simply let the servant girl stay with her.
After hearing Jiujiu's words, Mo Ling's domineering expression froze for a moment.
Looking at the back of the guard who had already run away, Mo Ling frowned.
Was it too late for him to change his mind now?
Jiujiu was a man, and he was a man. It was against the natural law to be gay. Now, Jiujiu didn't even know what he was thinking about her. Moreover, after his observation during this period of time, there was no problem with Jiujiu's sexual orientation. In other words, the current Jiujiu still liked women.
In order to seek justice for Jiujiu, Mo Ling regretted leaving such a little servant girl behind.
When the guard heard that his idol Mo Ling asked him to go find the Empress, he was so excited that he almost ran all the way to Qiankun Palace.
Originally, after Jiujiu left, the Empress was preparing to wash up and go to bed. However, she was stunned by the news that the Nation Preceptor invited her.
Hearing that it was Mo Ling who invited the Empress, the people in Qiankun Palace didn't wait for the Empress to speak. They all looked at the Empress as if asking her when she was going.
Seeing that the people in her palace were also crazy fans, the Empress was so angry that she clenched her fists. She called Molly to sit in the sedan chair and went to Jiujiu's palace.
When the Empress arrived, Jiujiu had already asked people to settle the little servant girl down.
She and Mo Ling sat on the chairs. In the middle of the table, there was a plate of osmanthus cake.
After the Empress came in, she saw the plate of osmanthus cake at first glance.
The moment she saw the osmanthus cake, the Empress' right eyelid twitched violently. Molly, who was following behind the Empress, instantly paled.
The Empress had a decent smile on her face. She looked at Mo Ling and said, "Why did the Nation Preceptor ask me to come here so late at night?"
The Empress' attitude was very good, but the hidden meaning in her words was that if you didn't say one, two, three, four, five, then don't blame me for being rude.
Mo Ling looked up at the Empress and said in a cold voice, "Does the Empress find this plate of osmanthus cake familiar?"
The Empress asked Jiujiu to go with the excuse that she made the osmanthus cake herself. However, she didn't particularly like osmanthus cake. Therefore, the osmanthus cake for Jiujiu was always made by the chef in the small kitchen. She didn't even take a look at it. Therefore, after seeing the plate of osmanthus cake on the table, the Empress was startled at first. Then, she realized that the osmanthus cake was not fresh.
