After Gao married the prince, the sick and weak concubine lost her horse

Chapter 170 Chapter 170 Concern
Sheng Tingye had no choice but to calm down, get up and go to bed.

Shen Qingci had already opened the door one step ahead of him.

The maids and women who were waiting outside filed in and waited on the two of them to freshen up.

A quarter of an hour later, the neatly dressed Sheng Tingye supported his sick body and went to the study to see Imperial Physician Zhao.

Shen Qingci originally planned to take this opportunity to ask Qiu Shui to inquire about Lin Yunzheng quietly.

She was really worried about how he looked like yesterday.

But before she finished giving her orders, a servant girl from outside came to report that the eldest daughter of the Qin family had arrived.

When Shen Qingci heard that it was Qin Jiaojiao, he was immediately invited in.

As soon as they met each other, Qin Jiaojiao was about to greet her, but she stopped her and joked, "You didn't behave like this a few days ago."

Qin Jiaojiao chuckled, and after she had done all the etiquette, she got up and said, "Isn't there no way, this is Prince Ning's Mansion anyway, let people see it, it doesn't matter if you make fun of me, I'm just afraid that others will point at you .”

Shen Qingci took her hand and entered the room, "I don't care."

Seeing that Nanny Gui and the others were still stuck here, Shen Qingci waved his hands, "A-Jiao and I want to talk about ourselves for a while, you should step back first."

After finishing speaking, Shen Qingci gave Chunya a wink in a calm manner.

Don't worry about her, after going out, Chun Ya will definitely look at Gui Momo and won't let her eavesdrop again.

It was Sheng Tingye's intention to let her listen to the corner last night.

When there were only the two of them in the room, Qin Jiaojiao changed her playfulness and said with a serious expression, "A Ci, how are you doing here?"

"Yesterday, I went to the hunting ground in the outskirts of the city. I came back early this morning and heard that you fainted in the Queen's Palace. What's going on?"

As soon as Qin Jiaojiao entered the door, Shen Qingci noticed that she was still wearing a riding and archery outfit, so she must have just returned home, and hurried over without even changing her clothes when she heard the news.

She felt warm in her heart, shook her head, lowered her voice and said: "It's nothing, you know my body, but it's just a little internal injury, and it's not really the terminal illness as rumored."

Qin Jiaojiao is not a fool either. Hearing this, she thought about it for a while and couldn't help frowning: "The queen made things difficult for you?"

Shen Qingci didn't want to worry her, and wanted to cover it up, but seeing Qin Jiaojiao's expression, it was obvious that he couldn't hide it.

What's more, there are people in the Qin family in the palace, and if there is any news, it has already been handed over.

She was left to hang in the snow-swept courtyard by the queen for so long yesterday, there should be few people in the harem who don't know about it.

Shen Qingci shrugged: "Maybe they are setting rules for me."

Qin Jiaojiao grabbed her hand subconsciously, and said angrily: "I used to think that the queen is generous and friendly, but she treats you like this! And..."

Speaking of the queen, Qin Jiaojiao frowned even more when thinking about what her aunt had said to her before.

"A word."

She sighed and stopped talking.

Qin Jiaojiao has a straight-forward temperament.

Shen Qingci seldom saw her with such a tangled and depressed expression, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Qin Jiaojiao shook her head.

Shen Qingci first thought of Lin Yunzheng.

"What happened to Lin Yunzheng?"

Hearing this, Qin Jiaojiao tightened her grip on Shen Qingci's wrist, "What? Didn't he go to fief? What's wrong?"

Shen Qingci was stunned.

Qin Jiaojiao didn't know that Lin Yunzheng had returned.

Shen Qingci was worried about Lin Yunzheng, so it would be best if Qin Jiaojiao sent someone to inquire about it.

She hurriedly told Qin Jiaojiao about Lin Yunzheng even running up to Sheng Tingye to make a fuss in order to stand out for her.

At the end, Qin Jiaojiao gasped.

"That's the third prince... oh no, it's King Ning, he's quite courageous this time."

As she said that, Qin Jiaojiao raised her eyes and looked Shen Qingci up and down, "Aci, how is King Ning treating you?"

Shen Qingci didn't know why he was talking about Lin Yunzheng just now, but suddenly turned to Sheng Tingye.

Facing Qin Jiaojiao's serious and concerned eyes, Shen Qingci nodded.

Count... well.

Although his mouth is a bit harsh and he doesn't like her approaching, this should be regarded as his cleanliness, right?

If you don't like a person, you will naturally reject that person's approach.

If it was her, it should be similar.

Ever since she decided to accept the arrangement to marry over, she hadn't thought about anything else.

It is the best result for her to temporarily hold the position of the Third Prince Concubine and Concubine Ning, and to provide her with convenience.

Moreover, compared to asking her to deal with a complete stranger, the third prince is his "old acquaintance", which is even more unexpected to her.

... What's more, he had rescued her several times before in times of crisis.

Therefore, apart from not being in love with each other, being a superficial couple with him is actually quite good.

Knowing that Qin Jiaojiao also cared about her, and was afraid that she would be wronged here, Shen Qingci added: "Compared to others, marrying him is the best."

With her words, Qin Jiaojiao subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's fine."

She patted her chest, "I've seen King Ning from afar before. Of course, his appearance is fine, but he feels cold."

She thought that such a man had no warmth and sentimentality to speak of as a husband.

Seeing what Shen Qingci said, Qin Jiaojiao originally wanted to break Lin Yunzheng's mind for Shen Qingci, but after seeing it this way, she held back her words.

What's the use of saying it?

Shen Qingci is now married and living a good life, and he let it go, but it just added to her troubles.

That silly boy.

Qin Jiaojiao sighed inwardly, but concealed it very well.

"Don't worry about Lin Yunzheng, I'll go and see him later."

"I don't think it's a big deal."

As she said that, Qin Jiaojiao picked up the teacup with some guilt and took a sip of water.

Shen Qingci nodded.

Putting aside Lin Yunzheng's matter for the time being, she turned to Qin Jiaojiao again: "By the way, you haven't said why you were worried just now?"

"Tell me and see if I can help."

Qin Jiaojiao sighed again.

"I can't help you. The person who made me angry is the same person who bullied you."

Hearing this, Shen Qingci frowned, and tentatively asked, "Empress?"

Qin Jiaojiao first turned her head and glanced at the door to make sure that no one was listening outside, then she pulled the chair closer to Shen Qingci.

"My mother got the news that the queen is determined to let me marry Sheng Tingzhao."

Seeing that Shen Qingci was puzzled, Qin Jiaojiao lowered her voice and continued: "It's Prince Ning's own younger brother, Fifth Prince, that brat Sheng Tingzhao!"

Speaking of this, Qin Jiaojiao couldn't help but let out a long sigh, put her cheek in one hand, and said with a wry smile: "Maybe, we two will become sisters-in-law soon."

Hearing this, Shen Qingci almost couldn't help laughing.

But as soon as she saw Qin Jiaojiao's expression, she knew she was not joking.

Shen Qingci couldn't laugh anymore.

With a mournful face, Qin Jiaojiao pulled Shen Qingci's sleeves and said, "Before, there was a sage holding back, but I don't know what's going on recently. I heard that the sage has let go."

"A Ci, I think, if it doesn't work, I'll find a wild man and elope."

Shen Qingci: "???"
