King Xiang of the Red Chamber

Chapter 357 Miss Qin, what are you doing?
Apparently, Deng An was thinking wholeheartedly about his master, even thinking about Zhu Jinghong's front.

Seeing Qin Zhong being taken away, Keqing became more certain about some suspicion in her mind, and she became even more nervous while sitting in the sedan.

When the corners of his clothes were crumpled into a ball, Keqing suddenly took a deep breath, and then let go of the shabby corners of his clothes.

Since you can't escape this disaster anyway, you might as well face it proactively.

If you commit yourself to the Thirteenth Master, you can save your father from prison, which is completely worth it in Ke Qing's opinion.

After all, in order to save his father, he was even willing to accept a despicable person like Jia Zhen, so why couldn't he happily hand over himself to the legitimate prince.

"It's such a pity that the fate of my parents and the words of the matchmaker that I have expected since childhood can no longer be fulfilled!"

In the midst of these random thoughts, Deng An and his party arrived outside Dong'an Gate.

The palace was strictly forbidden, but Zhu Jinghong had already greeted him in advance, and it was an old man like Deng An who led the way, so Qing did not encounter any difficulties when entering the palace gate.

Entering Dong'an Gate is the Imperial City. Deng An and his entourage walked for a while before arriving outside Donghua Gate.

Here they encountered another inspection, and then passed without any waves.

Soon, Keqing was led to Chengming Courtyard, but Zhu Jinghong happened to be absent.

"Where have you gone, Thirteenth Master?" Deng An went out and asked the young eunuch on duty outside the palace.

"Go back to my father-in-law. The princess sent someone to invite you. The Thirteenth Master went to Kunning Palace!"

After hearing this, Deng An asked again: "Who followed?"

"Eunuch Zhang is following!"

This time around the Qin family, Zhang Ping'an was responsible for taking care of Jia Zhen. In comparison, the job was completed more beautifully.

Deng An claimed to be the most trusted eunuch by Zhu Jinghong's side, and now Zhang Ping'an made him feel threatened, and now he heard that he was going to Kunning Palace with Zhu Jinghong again, and he felt a little more vigilant in his heart.

"Where did Yu Hai go?"

"Eunuch Yu went to Shanglin Garden, it seems he was delivering something!"

"Ok!"

After asking about these matters, Deng An set off for Kunning Palace. He had to personally bring the news to Zhu Jinghong.

At this moment, Zhu Jinghong was having a drink in the east hall of Kunning Palace. It turned out that Zhu Yunsheng wanted to thank him.

In the room, apart from the two brothers and sister Zhu Jinghong, the four attendants also took their seats, and the atmosphere was very pleasant among the people talking and laughing.

In the scene, Yang Jingting was the only one who spoke little and glanced at Zhu Jinghong from time to time, with complicated meanings in her eyes.

Obviously, what happened two days ago had a huge impact on Yang Jingting, and she suddenly felt that Zhu Jinghong was "unsavoury".

Such a ruthless, decisive and violent person really made Yang Jingting a little unbearable.

"Third sister, after drinking this glass of wine, I can't drink any more!"

"Brother Thirteen, why are you so timid? In the past, it was fine if you drank even one jar!" Zhu Yunsheng was extremely puzzled.

Zhu Jinghong was slightly drunk and said slowly: "My father grounded me two days ago, so I just ran out to drink. If I get drunk... wouldn't it be disrespectful to him?"

"Ah? Are you still grounded? Then you still come to me!" Zhu Yunsheng was surprised again.

Everyone else present was also surprised at this moment. Isn't coming out at this time to resist the decree?
Baochai, who was sitting next to Zhu Jinghong, said, "Why can't you calm down? If His Majesty knows that you are out, I'm afraid I will punish you again!"

As an outsider, Zhu Yunsheng could understand the concern in these words, and Zhu Jinghong naturally felt more deeply.

He smiled and replied: "It's fine... Anyway, in two months, I will move out of the palace, and he won't be able to punish me by then!"

There really were only two months before he would hold a coronation ceremony, and then he would be crowned king and open a palace. At that time, it would be time to move out of the palace and let him live freely.

I want to hit ten... This sentence came to Zhu Jinghong's mind unconsciously.

"Thirteenth Master, you moved out...won't we not be able to see you anymore?" Zhen Qin couldn't help but speak, her expression full of worry.

"What? You can't bear to leave me?" Zhu Jinghong asked with a smile.

"me……"

Being impressed, the silly girl Zhen Qin was so nervous that she didn't know how to reply.

Master Thirteen knows that I can’t let him go?It seems that he has understood my intention. Could it be that he said this in public... also to express his intention?
At this moment, Zhen Qin used her talent for brainstorming again, thinking about what she would be like as a princess in the future.

At this moment, Deng An cautiously entered the hall and waited outside the dining room.Seeing the person coming, Zhu Jinghong asked, "What's the matter?"

"Reporting to the Thirteenth Master, the person has been found and has been brought to the bedroom!"

"Oh...well, you go down!"

"Yes!"

After Deng An left, although Zhu Jinghong continued to chat and joke with the girls, he was already absent-minded.

After lingering for a few minutes, Zhu Jinghong couldn't help but said: "Third sister, I am grounded after all, and I can't stay here for long, so... I'd better go back first!"

Peeling the melon seeds and putting them in his mouth, Baochai couldn't help but laugh when he heard Zhu Jinghong's lame excuse.

"Okay... let's get together next time!"

"Yeah... we'll meet again next time. I'll say goodbye to you all!" After drinking the last glass of wine, Zhu Jinghong turned around and left.

After he left, Zhu Yunsheng was heard muttering: "What happened to Brother Thirteen? Why did he leave so suddenly? Who made him miss him so much?"

Apparently, Zhu Jinghong's lame reason could not fool his own sister.

Just listen to Baochai say: "Of course... whoever he likes is whoever he likes!"

"Sister Bao, do you know?"

"Princess, I don't know anything!"

"Really?" Zhu Yunsheng obviously didn't believe it.

Besides, Zhu Jinghong left Kunning Palace and hurried to Chengmingyuan.

After entering the gate, Deng An greeted him and told him that the Qin family girl was in the side hall.

Zhu Jinghong nodded, and then stepped into the hall. After entering, he realized that none of the eunuchs on duty were there.

Obviously, this is Deng An's arrangement, and this guy is the person who understands his thoughts best.

In the side hall, Qin Keqing was sitting on a chair, looking at the soft couch on the north side in a daze.

She was nervous and scared, so even in this cold weather, sweat broke out on her forehead.

"uh-huh……"

The sound coming from outside made her wake up from her mental exhaustion. When she turned around, she saw Zhu Jinghong, so she stood up immediately.

"See Lord Thirteen!"

When he walked up to Ke Qing, Zhu Jinghong stretched out his hands and helped him up naturally.

"Don't be too polite!"

While getting up, Keqing said with a solemn face: "Thank you, Thirteenth Master, for the rescue. The guilty minister's daughter is very grateful!"

"Girl, you're welcome!"

After helping Ke Qing up, Zhu Jinghong led her to sit on the chair, and then sat on the other side.

Glancing at Ke Qing who was sitting with his head bowed, Zhu Jinghong picked up the tea cup and said, "I already know about your father. He is a sincere person. It is a pity to encounter such a thing!"

"Now the case he committed has a wide range of implications in the court. It can be said that a single move affects the whole body..."

"Although I pleaded for him many times, I can't do anything against the holy will. Your father wants to get rid of the crime...it's really hard!"

The harder it was for her to exaggerate, the more Ke Qing felt that he had something to say. At this moment, there was a battle between heaven and man in her mind.

Finally, Ke Qing made up his mind and stood up under Zhu Jinghong's doubtful eyes.

"As long as Master Thirteen is willing to rescue me, any little girl you want will be willing to do it!"

After saying this, Keqing reached out to unbuckle the collar and took out the golden hairpin from her hair.

The black hair was scattered, and with Ke Qing's beautiful face, Zhu Jinghong was stunned for a while.

After a few breaths, seeing that Keqing was about to take off his outer leather jacket, Zhu Jinghong said, "Miss Qin, who is this?"
