Empress, she is beautiful Lu Ziye

Chapter 42

She knew that Xiao Rongxi was investigating herself, and also vaguely guessed that he should have been to the cold palace on the night of the accident.

With this explanation, I hope to dispel some of his doubts.

After all, whether or not the imperial court was involved in the Mingyue Pavilion incident has yet to be determined, and she cannot leave for the time being.

After listening to her, Xiao Rongxi didn't answer, just turned his head, stared at her, and asked a question that even he himself felt a little surprised.

"What do you think of Shen Xian?"

Nan Zhen was taken aback, met his deep eyes, and after a while, slowly shook her head.

Xiao Rongxi didn't rush, and continued to wait for her answer.

"It is said that Mr. Shen's family is both talented and beautiful, and the evaluation of the people around him is indeed not bad."

These words directly picked himself up clean, but failed to satisfy Xiao Rongxi, "People around you have good comments, what about you?"

"I do not understand."

"Is that so..." The man's voice was low, his eyes traced her face carefully, trying to see through her disguise, "How can I remember that you are very close?"

Although it was a question, the tone was certain.

Nan Zhen smiled and said freely, "It's all just young and ignorant, Your Majesty must give people a chance to reform themselves."

After finishing speaking, he moved the stool next to him and sat in front of the table, ready to have a long talk at any time.

Since he was able to catch the private meeting between Poppies and the Commander of the Imperial Army, it is not strange to know that Concubine Li and Shen Xian are connected, that's why there are repeated temptations now.

Hiding has never been in Nan Zhen's character, she will always take the initiative to meet things.

Seeing her sitting upright, with her chin resting on one hand, and her almond eyes slightly open, Xiao Rongxi actually showed a somewhat obedient look, opened her mouth, and repeated her words, word by word, "Reform?"

"Your Majesty, there is no doubt. Now that I am a concubine, I should abide by my duty and not do anything out of line. As for the Qin family..."

Nan Zhen paused, "You are the ruler, they are the ministers, the affairs of the ruler and ministers have nothing to do with me."

After she finished speaking calmly and calmly, she pursed her lips and smiled under suspicious eyes.

Xiao Rongxi called her here today because he just wanted to meet her, but she didn't expect her to take the initiative to touch this level, so she stopped playing charades and asked, "Are you showing your loyalty to me?"

Nan Zhen shook her head, "I want to let His Majesty know that I am not an accomplice to them."

Abandoning is useless, but she is never on the chessboard.

What she is doing is playing chess.

Xiao Rongxi was silent, groping the edge of the table with his fingertips, "They are all your relatives."

"So what?" Nan Zhen twitched her lips, "When he was using me, regardless of my life or death, he never thought of the word 'relative'."

Xiao Rongxi stared at her for a long while, then smiled suddenly, her brows and eyes wide open, like a breeze passing through, "I really like the ruthlessness on your body."

Only when you can afford it and let it go can you succeed.

"Okay, I'll trust you for now," Xiao Rongxi stopped what he was doing, and shouted outside, "Xiao Guizi."

Xiao Guizi immediately ran in joltingly, "Your Majesty."

"Pass the meal, I'm a little hungry."

"Yes."

The dinner was light, Nan Zhen chattered with him for a long time, she was really thirsty, after the dishes were served, she drank half a bowl of soup first.

Vegetable and tofu soup looks ordinary, but it has a special taste in your mouth.

When Nan Zhen was about to fill the second bowl, Xiao Rongxi stretched out her hand and pressed it down, "Eat some vegetables first, don't say you're hungry before walking back in a while, making it seem like I'm abusing you."
