The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 326 You still have me (2)
Qingchen said without thinking: "Your Highness, it's better not to make random guesses. Meiren Li has always been on good terms with Concubine Xin, why would she do this? Take it easy."

Xiao Jue leaned down, leaned on the table with a smile, looked at her and asked, "Then do you need my help to find the real culprit?"

Qingchen backed away and kept a certain distance from him. Even though she didn't have such old feudal thoughts, she was still not used to being too close to strange men, "The emperor has sent Master Fu to investigate this matter , don’t bother Your Highness to intervene, but I have another matter that I want to ask His Highness for help, I wonder if His Highness will agree?”

Xiao Jue nodded: "Well, tell me, as long as you open your mouth, I will do all the big things for you."

When he said this, Qingchen hesitated a little, and felt a sense of distance for no reason. She didn't like his ambiguous tone.

Xiao Jue saw her frowning and remained silent, so she asked again: "What's the matter? You just said something."

Qing Chen hesitated several times, seeing Xiao Jue was quietly watching her waiting, he didn't want to say it but he had to say, "I want you to help me find out the origin of that fake Qin Zishuo, whether he was affected by it or not?" Who ordered him to come to Xiyuan? If a person takes the risk to come here knowing that he will die, then he must have some last resort. I think it is necessary to find out, but I... I have no way Please people..."

"I understand." Xiao Jue looked at her seriously and said, "You still have me. If you need help with any embarrassing things in the future, you can ask me. I won't shirk."

Qingchen hurriedly lowered her eyes to avoid his gaze, and said sincerely: "Thank you for your help, Your Highness, I am very grateful."

She bowed her head and concentrated on copying the Buddhist scriptures in her hand, while Xiao Jue walked around the room leisurely with a fan. When she was tired from walking, she leaned on the small table to read, occasionally glanced at her, very satisfied smile slightly.

The Empress Dowager came out of the Buddhist hall, Xiao Jue hurriedly stood up to help her, the Empress Dowager asked, "Why are you still here? Are you so free today?"

Xiao Jue helped her to sit on the kang, and then hurriedly brought tea, "Is that why the ancestor doesn't want to see his grandson? How long have I stayed here before I'm disgusted?"

The empress dowager didn't like him at all, she pointed to the chair beside her with her crutches, asked Xiao Jue to sit down and asked, "Don't play tricks on me, my father wrote to me two days ago, telling me about you Marriage, you are old and young, it is time to think about this issue, how long do you plan to delay? Don’t marry in this life? Those who don’t know this may think that I, the grandmother and the emperor, have treated you badly.”

Xiao Jue's expression was as if he had eaten a handful of yellow lotus, and he begged bitterly: "Isn't it an agreement with the emperor? Why did the ancestor bring this up again? Grandson listens to you in everything, but this is my You have to decide for yourself, otherwise I would rather not marry."

"You dare! If you dare to make your mother and concubine sad, your father will definitely break your legs. Don't think that he is only your son, and he will let you do whatever you want."

Xiao Jue scratched his head anxiously, and said intermittently: "Then what, grandma, my grandson suddenly remembered that I still have an appointment today, it's getting late..."

"Let's go, let's go!" The Empress Dowager turned her face away, too lazy to listen to him finish, "Every time I mention this to you, you have to make an excuse to slip away, and you can hide from the first day of the lunar new year, but you can't hide from the fifteenth day. If you are a monk, you can’t escape from the temple, and one day the emperor will order you to get married, so I think you’ll slip away!”

"Yes, yes." Xiao Jue replied seemingly respectfully, "Then grandson will leave first."

Before he left, he glanced at Qing Chen again, and then disappeared in a flash.
