The Queen Doesn't Want to Die
Chapter 270. Xia Xi Lin's
Xia Xi Lin did not know Lu Jing Yu's identity at all and was very surprised to learn if they entered the palace. From the beginning he had thought that Lu Jing Yu was just a young mistress of a noble residence and did not expect that she was a member of the royal family. He would be even more surprised if he found out if the person who saved him was Crown Princess Shao whom he could previously only hear his name.
Lu Jing Yu was wearing one carriage as she exited. So automatically Xia Xi Lin And Bai Mu Yue sat inside the carriage together with Lu Jing Yu. Chu Fei and Quan Yuan were seated at the front of the court as coachmen. Xia Xi Lin was instantly shocked as he realized that the carriage that was carrying them entered the palace gate smoothly. In fact, the guards who saw their carriage stopped and greeted. Unknowingly, Xia Xi Lin looked at Lu Jing Yu with question marks.
Noticing Xia Xi Lin's surprised-looking gaze, Lu Jing Yu did not want to add to Xia Xi Lin's shock by telling her his true identity. If he were to tell her this time, Lu Jing Yu was sure this woman would definitely not be able to accept it. So the most appropriate choice was to let her know her identity slowly. For the first time, let him accept calming himself first.
"Your Majesty, we've arrived." Quan Yuan stopped the carriage inside the eastern palace. Chu Fei immediately got off and helped Lu Jing Yu get off the carriage.
Xia Xi Lin also immediately went down and stood up awkwardly. He really doesn't know what to do. But he was not a fool who did not immediately understand the situation. He had no other choice but to stay in the palace to become a servant at this time. If he came out of the palace, he didn't know where he was going after that. He will be a good and faithful servant. It could be said if Lu Jing Yu had saved his life, so he would also give up his entire life to avenge what he had done for her.
"Madam Xia, stay here for a while. You can also work here until you can be strong enough to live out there with your daughter." Lu Jing Yu said softly. He stroked Bai Mu Yue making the little girl smile happily.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I promise I will work well here." Xia Xi Lin said firmly. In his heart, he was determined that whatever he had to do for Lu Jing Yu, he would have no qualms about doing so.
"alright. The most important thing is to take good care of your daughter." Lu Jing Yu smiled before turning to the servant behind her. "Shi Ma, take Miss Xia's rest first. Then tell him what he should pay attention to here."
"Your Majesty." The servant named Shi Ma nodded and immediately went to lead Xia Xi Lin away to the room that was in the other courtyard which was the room the servants were in. Xia Xi Lin obediently followed Shi Ma with Bai Mu Yue in her carriage.
After Xia Xi Lin left, Lu Jing Yu also immediately returned to Pei Zhi Hui's room to meet her son. He had been out of the palace for half a day today, and he missed his cute son terribly.

At a residence on the outskirts of the Imperial capital of Shao, Pei Zhong Min was talking to a guard who was a subordinate of his ally. At this time, all of Pei Zhong Min's men had been arrested and detained in the dungeon to receive punishment. So the powerful man could only rely on the help of others.
Right after he was taken to that place, he had ordered people to find out the state of his mother in the palace. He had heard if his mother killed the queen mother with her own hands and he knew for sure his punishment would not be possible lightly. Last time, he heard that his mother was being punished for kneeling in front of the parlor of Suri's mother. At this moment, four days had passed. What happened to his mother at this time?
"So my mother fell unconscious and was taken to jail?" Pei Zhong Min clenched his hands as he spoke.
"true."
"Then has the news of my current escape been spread?"
"No, Your Majesty. I'm sure they're hiding it intentionally. After all, the Shao Empire was currently in a period of mourning. They're unlikely to expose news that would destabilize the government."
"It's okay. It's even profitable for us." Pei Zhong Min nodded in understanding. "When are we going?" Continue while turning.
Pei Zhong Min was not a fool at all. He knew that one would not help others without the benefits to be had. So even though he currently did not have any strength behind him, he still felt he had something to be proud of. As proof, even though he did not ask for help, there were people who were willing to help him even though there had to be a return for it.
However, working with someone is not as easy as it seems. Both parties must understand each other and understand each other's boundaries. There must be a clear division between duty and profit. For that, they had to meet in person.
"If Your Majesty wills, we can leave this afternoon so that tomorrow morning we have arrived there." Answer the man seriously. But a moment later, he furrowed his brows and asked. "Does Your Majesty not want to save concubine Qiao first before leaving here?" Further.
"no need. My mother was one of the Emperor's women. He won't die so easily." Pei Zhong Min replied nonchalantly.
"But I heard that concubine Qiao was suffering in prison. Does Your Majesty not want to do something?"
"no need. We'll save her once it's all over. For now let me stay in jail."
Although the man was a little surprised at Pei Zhong Min's response, he had no right whatsoever to deny nor criticize him. His job was only to help Pei Zhong Min while here. The matter of whether he was going to help his mother or not, it was none of his business at all.
"All right, Your Majesty. Then the servant will go to make the necessary preparations during the journey so that this afternoon we can leave immediately."
"M." Pei Zhong Min nodded lightly. The man immediately got out of the room and prepared what was needed during the trip such as the train, supplies, etc, the soldiers and the most important thing was to think of a way on how to bring Pei Zhong Min out of the Shao empire safely.
