Chapter 29
Qianling: "."

She said she didn't want to.

"Well, it's getting late, I'll go back home first."

Xia Mochen: "After finishing the meal, this matter will be revealed."

Qian Ling: "???"

What's wrong?

Why don't you want to spread the word without having dinner with you?

There was nothing at first, but if it was spread out, after one spread and ten spreads, the final version would definitely surprise people.

Rumors, whether in modern times or ancient times, are an invisible sword.

No one is going to find out the facts, most people just follow the crowd and believe what they want to believe.

As for the truth, no one cares.

If she was alone, there must be no rumors, she just jumped off the bed and left with her shoes on.

But her status in this world does not allow her to do so.

The temperament of this Xiaoyao Wang is still unclear, so it is not clear whether he will really do what he said.

What's more, she has more important things to do.

Such extraneous things can be as few as possible.

Isn't it just a meal?
Gritting her teeth, she looked at Xia Mochen and raised a smile that didn't reach her eyes:
"Since it's Mo Chen's wish, I'm sure I'd like to stay and have dinner with you."

A flash of surprise flashed in Xia Mochen's eyes.

This girl's temperament has changed a lot.

He thought she would just leave.

Qian Ling suppressed the strangeness in his heart, and got off the bed calmly.

Everything that followed was normal, but after the meal, something unexpected happened.

When she was about to leave, Xia Mochen said softly:
"Ling'er, you have to remember that I am not your enemy, nor will I harm you.

"Facing me, you can be the truest you.

"If you like it, you like it, if you don't like it, you don't like it.

"So, in fact, you don't have to be so cautious and defensive when facing me."

On the way back, Qian Ling kept replaying these words in his mind.

Xia Mochen, what does this mean?
Could it be that he saw something?
Why should I believe what you say?

Is there anyone who wants to harm someone who will directly tell others that I am a bad person, and am I going to harm you?
That's what people with brain problems would do.
Qian Ling walked back to his yard, and someone walked in behind him.

Wang first looked her over from head to toe, and after confirming that there was no problem, she spoke:
"Why did you leave midway?"

"Being bored, I saw the road connecting the Gongsun Mansion to the back mountain.

"I was bored and curious for a while, so I went to have a look.

"Who knows, I accidentally lost my way, and just happened to meet Xiaoyao Wang, who kindly took me away from the back mountain and invited me to be a guest.

"I think it's not good to refuse someone who just helped me.

"Mom, you also said that I just need to go to Gongsun's mansion to show my face.

"I was thinking, since the face has been exposed, it's okay to stay, so I simply agreed."

What to say, I had already thought about it on the way back.

It is quite handy to take it out and deal with it at this time.

In the past, when performing missions, some scenes of drama were indispensable.

She is good at making up stories and so on.

"As long as Fifth Sister is fine, even if you want to leave Gongsun Mansion to go elsewhere, you should send someone to inform you."

Xiao Zhuxue's voice was gentle and her face was full of concern:
"I heard that you disappeared, but mother is very anxious.

"Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about her.

"Her body is not as good as ours now, but she can't stand being frightened like you."

"What? Didn't the people from Xiaoyao Palace go?" Qian Ling was surprised, "Then I have to talk to the prince some other day, it's impossible for his subordinates to be so unreliable.

"There are no rules like this, but you have to discipline them well."

Lin Shun, who was far away in the Xiaoyao Palace, suddenly sneezed several times.

He touched the tip of his nose and thought to himself: Who would miss me in the middle of the night?

Xiao Zhuxue didn't expect her to say that, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment, and she said:

"Fifth Sister misunderstood, I didn't mean that."

Qian Ling blinked innocently, looked at her and asked, "What does sister-in-law mean?"

"Ling'er, don't mess around!" Wang Shi said at the right time, "Your sister-in-law is also worried about you, why are you complaining?"

Xiao Zhuxue smiled slightly, feeling quite helpless: "Mother, I'm fine, and Fifth Sister didn't mean to come here."

Qian Ling's eyes flickered slightly, and he looked directly at the gentle woman: "I have something, I want to ask sister-in-law."

Xiao Zhuxue smiled back: "Five younger sisters don't hesitate to ask, but if I know everything, I will definitely tell you everything I know."

Qian Ling: "I went up the back mountain directly from the backyard, why did the sixth prince so coincidentally go up the back mountain not long after me?"

Xiao Zhuxue looked surprised: "The sixth prince went to the back mountain?"

There was a trace of vigilance in my heart.

Could it be that she saw through her plan?
Could this innocent lady have such keen insight?

Qian Ling raised his eyebrows: "Don't sister-in-law know?"

"What is fifth sister talking about?" Xiao Zhuxue's face showed injury at the right time, "How could I, a girl in the backyard, know the whereabouts of the prince?"

"Oh~" Qian Ling withdrew his gaze, "I'm just asking casually, sister-in-law doesn't have to be so nervous."

Xiao Zhuxue said helplessly, "Fifth Sister was joking."

"What is the sixth prince doing in the back mountain?" Wang frowned and looked at her youngest daughter, and then at her eldest daughter-in-law.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but she always feels that the atmosphere between the two is very strange.

Although they are polite to each other, there is always a sense of insincerity.

Qian Ling glanced at Xiao Zhuxue, then turned to look at his mother, and said:

"I don't know, I ran away when I saw it from a distance.

"One thing more is worse than one thing less, my daughter thinks it's better to have less contact with the princes.

"It is precisely because of this that my daughter got lost and was finally met by King Xiaoyao."

Wang: "Even so, you can go back to the mansion earlier, you see it's getting dark today.

"Do you know that if this matter gets out, it will be bad for your reputation."

Qian Ling poured a cup of the brewed tea for each of them, and she picked up the cup in front of her and sipped it:

"Xu Shi walked too much and was very tired, so he rested in the palace for a while.

"I said it for a while, but when I woke up, it was already dark, so the prince kept me for dinner, and then someone sent me back to the mansion."

Thinking of this girl's lethargy in recent days, I didn't doubt it much, but said very seriously: "Don't be an example!"

Qian Ling smiled and said, "Promise!"

"It's getting late, you should rest first, and follow me into the palace tomorrow." Wang stood up and said this.

Qian Ling looked over in surprise: "What are you going to do?"

Wang: "Today, the empress wanted to see you but failed, so she specially asked her to bring you into the palace tomorrow."
