Chapter 261 Summoned into the Palace
  "Young Master Mo has a friend who is in critical condition and came to me to help with treatment. That's why he came back late." Xiao Qingqing answered truthfully.

Upon seeing this, Mo Lingtian bowed respectfully.

"Master Mo has helped us a lot before. Now we are in trouble and we need help." Feng Molin nodded without blaming, and even said to Xiao Qingqing with a bit of worry, "But you still need to pay attention when you come back so late. Be safe."

Feng Molin did not forget Zuo Zhen's teasing of Xiao Qingqing.

"Don't worry, Mr. Mo will send me back in person." Feng Molin's concerned words gave Xiao Qingqing a sour taste, and she couldn't help but chuckle.

Watching the interaction between the two, Mo Lingtian saluted respectfully: "Since the princess has been delivered, I will leave first."

Feng Molin did not stop him. After Mo Lingtian left, he took Xiao Qingqing into the palace.

However, as soon as he sat down, Butler Chen hurried over with Sato.

"My lord and princess." Sato bowed when he saw the two of them, with a look of worry on his face.

"Why is Prince Sato so panicked, but Prince Zoe's condition has worsened?" Xiao Qingqing asked confusedly when Zoe was nowhere to be seen.

Sato shook his head and said helplessly: "It's not Zoe. I came here because of Zuo Zhen. Now Zuo Zhen's poison has taken effect and his whole body is in excruciating pain. The doctors are at a loss what to do after seeing it."

After hearing that it was about Zuo Zhen, Xiao Qingqing's expression softened significantly, and there was a bit of disdain in her eyebrows: "Does Prince Sato come here now hoping that I will give you the antidote?"

Xiao Qingqing stared at Sato. Although she had been in contact with Sato and didn't dislike him, she would never tolerate him if her bottom line was touched.

Sato was embarrassed, but shook his head: "No, it's just that Zuo Zhen is suffering from a poisonous attack and is in pain, but this will only make Zuo Zhen hate the princess. I'm worried that Zuo Zhen will hurt the princess in the future."

At the same time, he is also worried that this matter will create a gap between the two places.

"I haven't paid much attention to a mere Zuo Zhen. If he wants to settle a score with me, then we have to see if he has the ability." Xiao Qingqing looked cold and disdainful of this.

Xiao Qingqing is still very confident about the poison in her hands. If things go wrong, Feng Molin will protect her.

Xiao Qingqing looked towards Feng Molin and met his tender eyes.

Seeing that Xiao Qingqing was not worried about this, Sato had no choice but to give up and say nothing more, but he did not forget to remind: "I hope the princess will pay attention to her safety."

Regarding Sato's reminder, Xiao Qingqing put away her initial displeasure and responded calmly.

"My lord and princess, the Seventh Prince sent someone to ask the Princess to go to the Seventh Prince's Mansion."

While talking with Sato, Butler Chen came over and said.

Xiao Qingqing frowned, Gao Hao was looking for her, he was afraid that nothing good would happen.

Sato knew that he was not suitable to stay here anymore, so he left.

Xiao Qingqing wanted to reject the seventh prince, but Feng Molin held her hand: "I will go with you."

With Feng Molin by her side, Xiao Qingqing felt a little more confident and nodded in agreement.

It was already sunset when we arrived at the Seventh Prince's Mansion in a carriage.

When sitting in the hall and looking at Gao Haozheng, Xiao Qingqing drank tea and asked casually: "I wonder why the seventh prince called me here so late?"

Gao Haozheng glanced at Feng Molin, who was standing aside, and then said with a smile: "I heard about the princess being molested by the second prince of the Southern Territory in the street today. I heard that Zuo Zhen is a well-known libertine. He loves beauties the most, but I never thought that I would miss out on the princess. The princess is considered a hero among women, and she is so bold."

Gao Haozheng's words were full of praise for Xiao Qingqing, but this made Xiao Qingqing feel uncomfortable. “Is this why the Seventh Prince called me here?” Xiao Qingqing narrowed her eyes slightly, not believing this.

"Of course, but after hearing about this incident, I was a little worried about the safety of the princess. This Zuo Zhen is the second prince of the South anyway. I am worried that he will retaliate against the princess in the future and cause unnecessary trouble. If things get too big, I'm afraid. It will be detrimental to the princess." Gao Haozheng sighed and reminded Xiao Qingqing.

Hearing the words, Xiao Qingqing also understood the meaning of the words, and simply felt that her move was to enmity with the southern border.

"The Seventh Prince is right. I am so courageous. No matter who the other party is, they should pay the price for violating me." Xiao Qingqing responded proudly.

"Princess, you have done a good job in this matter. If anything happens, I will only take the responsibility for you." Feng Molin also supported Xiao Qingqing's behavior.

Gao Haozheng's pupils were slightly condensed, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised while drinking tea, and then he said with a smile: "As expected of the princess, when facing a prodigal like Zuo Zhen, we should show him some color, so as to show the courage of our country! "

Xiao Qingqing took in Gao Haozheng's expression and sneered in her heart.

"Seventh Prince, Your Majesty summons the prince and princess."

At this time, people from the palace came and saluted several people.

Xiao Qingqing laughed, she was really busy this whole day, everyone wanted to see her.

Now the emperor's summons cannot be refused.

Gao Haozheng also let Xiao Qingqing leave.

Inside the palace.

Xiao Qingqing and Feng Molin were standing in the imperial study. Gao Mingxuan was reviewing memorials. He raised his head and glanced at the two of them, and said calmly: "I heard what happened in the city today. Is the princess injured?"

Xiao Qingqing saluted: "My wife is not injured. Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."

Xiao Qingqing raised her eyes slightly and looked at Gao Mingxuan, her thoughts swirling. Did the emperor want to punish her?

Gao Mingxuan put down the cinnabar pen in his hand, and then raised his head to look at the two of them, his eyes resting on Xiao Qingqing: "It's good that he's not injured, but Zuo Zhen is the second prince of the South, and he will definitely stir up trouble if something happens in the capital. The dispute between the two places needs to be well received."

Xiao Qingqing also became cautious and bowed: "Your Majesty said so."

"King Beihuang, I called you here today for military matters. I think you also saw the military situation today." Gao Mingxuan changed the subject and said to Feng Molin.

This surprised Xiao Qingqing, who was worried about being punished just now. She didn't expect that the story about Zuo Zhen could be turned around so easily.

"I have gone to see him today." Feng Molin said indifferently.

Gao Mingxuan nodded: "What do you think of Liu Qi?"

"Average." Feng Molin didn't comment too much.

"This Liu Qi is the legitimate son of the Duke of Zhenguo. I have met him before. He is not bad and he is a promising talent. So I hope you can train Liu Qi well so that the second prince of Nanjing can show the power of our country." Gao Mingxuan The purpose of this time was stated.

Xiao Qingqing was a little surprised. She knew about Liu Qi and heard Feng Molin mention what happened to Liu Qi in the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army today. He was just relying on his status as the legitimate son of the Duke of Zhenguo to do whatever he wanted. How could he be of any use?

In this regard, Xiao Qingqing couldn't help but question Gao Mingxuan's arrangement, but she didn't say it out loud. Instead, she looked at Feng Molin and waited for his reply.
