[R18] Quick Travel Heroine’s Counterattack Plan (h) – Chapter 286 of “Quick Travel Heroine’s Counterattack Plan (h)” [English]

Girl Queen Mother(27)

Leng Xiyan picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, and broke the silence: “Why do so many people come to the Aijia Palace today?”

Concubine Li smiled and said: “As for the Queen Mother, I have wanted to visit you for a long time, but I heard that you are not in good health and I am afraid of disturbing you, so I have never come…”

“Yes, Concubine Min mentioned it this time, so all the sisters in the palace made an appointment to come to you to pay your respects…” Concubine De said from the side.

Leng Xiyan followed Concubine De’s eyes and looked at Chen Jia calmly. Chen Jia chuckled and said, “Actually, I have my own selfish motives for doing this…”

“Oh? Concubine Min, tell me, what are your selfish motives?” Leng Xiyan looked at her curiously.

Chen Jia covered her mouth and smiled, then said: “I want to admit my mistakes to the Queen Mother today in the presence of the sisters in the harem…” Leng Xiyan motioned for her to continue.

Chen Jia stood up, walked to the center of the hall, and said: “The Queen Mother, my concubine was ignorant before and contradicted the Queen Mother. Afterwards, she felt deeply frightened and uneasy in her palace. After thinking about it, I boldly ask for your forgiveness today. I hope the Queen Mother will forgive me for once because this is my first offender…” After saying that, she looked at Leng Xiyan pitifully.

“Yes, the Queen Mother, Sister Min Fei was also confused for a moment, please forgive her…”

“If you know your mistakes and you can correct them, there is no greater good. Sister Min Fei has realized her mistakes. Queen Mother, please give her another chance…”

…

The concubines also spoke for her because they wanted to leave a good impression in front of Leng Xiyan.

Seeing her glance at each other, Leng Xiyan suddenly felt funny: Chen Jia was smart and showed his selfishness from the beginning. In this way, he could only forgive her generously, and the concubines also took this opportunity to leave a good impression in front of him.Isn’t it a matter of killing two birds with one stone?

Seeing that she was silent, Chen Jia shouted nervously: “The Queen Mother…”

Leng Xiyan came back to her senses and said jokingly: “You all speak up for her. If the Ai family doesn’t forgive her, wouldn’t it look very inhumane?”

“I’m scared…” the concubines said in unison.

Chen Jia spoke sincerely: “The Queen Mother, the sisters all have good intentions. Please don’t blame her…”

“Okay, the Ai family doesn’t blame her. The Ai family is also very happy to see you getting along so well. The Ai family will forgive you this time, and it won’t be so easy for you to get through next time…” Leng Xiyan looked at her with a smile and said.

“I have thanked the Queen Mother. To express my apology, here is a gift. Please accept it…” After saying that, Chen Jia took the gift from Qiao Xin and presented it to her with both hands respectfully.

Leng Xiyan reached out and took the gift, her eyes suddenly focused, then she regained her composure, and said meaningfully: “Concubine Min is interested…”

Chen Jia couldn’t help but feel nervous, and said calmly: “I am not worthy of being a concubine…”

“Okay, I can’t let you go empty-handed when the Ai family receives a gift. Caihe, bring up the set of jewelry from the Ai family…” Caihe nodded respectfully and stepped back.

After a while, she came over with a beautiful box, and then opened it. A dazzling light suddenly emitted from the box: nine hairpins were neatly placed in the box, with different colors and styles. They were all made of the best materials. They were made by the most famous jewelry craftsmen of the year. They were extremely precious.

“This is the dowry from the Ai family. The Ai family has never worn it once. It feels like a waste to leave it alone, so I just give it to you. You can each pick one…” Leng Xiyan said.

The concubines each picked one, touched it fondly, and said respectfully: “Concubine, I thank the Queen Mother for her grace…”

Looking at the beautiful hairpin in her hand, Chen Jia felt jealous again: Why does she have everything? God, it’s so unfair. Let her be proud for now, but she won’t be able to laugh anymore… Thinking of the scene later, a flash of schadenfreude flashed in Chen Jia’s eyes.Seeing her expression, Leng Xiyan’s eyes flashed with sarcasm: I don’t know who won’t laugh later…

Unknowingly, it was already noon, and Leng Xiyan left them to eat in the palace.Ten women were dining together, and the scene looked extremely harmonious.Suddenly, a little concubine said, “What smells so strange?” She moved her nose as she spoke.

The other concubines also smelled the smell, and they all frowned and said:

“Yeah, I wonder where it came from?”

“Is it because the food has gone bad?”

“And the smell is getting stronger and stronger…”

…The concubines frowned and covered their noses.

Looking at the surrounding situation, Chen Jia’s eyes couldn’t help flashing with pride, and then looked at Leng Xiyan, only to find that she was looking at him with a half-smile, and she avoided her eyes with a guilty conscience: Did she find out? No, this is impossible…

“No, it smells so bad. What on earth does this smell like?”

“Wait a minute, the smell seems to be coming from here…” A concubine pointed in one direction and said.Everyone followed her hand in that direction and found Chen Jia sitting there. Chen Jia looked at her inexplicably.

Concubine De covered her nose and asked, “Concubine Min, what exactly did you get on your body? Why does it stink so much?”

Chen Jia shook her head and denied: “No…” As she said that, she raised her hand and smelled it, and her face suddenly became ugly.

“What…what is going on?” Chen Jia stood up and said in panic.As she stood up, the smell gradually spread. The concubines moved away from her and said, “Concubine Min (sister), please stop moving. The smell is getting worse and worse when you move.” After hearing this, Chen Jia could only stand still.
