Chapter 107 The Princess and the Slave (18)

"Why, sister, don't you want to say it?"

Luo Qinghuan's silence made Chu Yan curl his lips. He flipped the jade pendant in his hand a few times and stuffed it into Luo Qinghuan's sleeve. Luo Qinghuan covered the jade pendant and looked up at him with a smile Non-smiling peach blossom eyes.

"Still, you want to help that idiot?"

Hearing this, Luo Qinghuan's pupils shrank slightly, and Chu Yan, who had been observing her, stretched out his index finger and gently scratched her chin.

"If you want to help him, I won't stop you," Chu Yan narrowed her eyes, and let go of her hand, "But sister, please remember, now you--I owe you a favor."

In those peach blossom eyes, there was a light of incomparable confidence, and Luo Qinghuan suddenly understood that this man had never put her or Chu Yu in his eyes.

The person who gave her the key to the secret passage walked away, leaving Luo Qinghuan in a daze.

Chu Yan knew that this jade pendant was the key to the secret passage of the palace. Luo Qinghuan couldn't get it from the queen mother himself, but Chu Yan got it quickly, and now he suddenly gave her such a precious thing. What does it mean?
Luo Qinghuan didn't quite understand Chu Yan's actions, but what was certain was that her actions were all under Chu Yan's surveillance.

Thinking of this, Luo Qinghuan's hair became numb, and she immediately put away the jade pendant and rushed to Chu Yu's imperial study, but on the way, she saw someone who was supposed to be imprisoned in the prison.

Putting on the clothes of a palace official, Lu Nian followed Eunuch Wu to the palace gate, and Luo Qinghuan stopped him immediately.

No matter how Luo Qinghuan asked, Lu Nian kept his head down and did not speak. Eunuch Wu said that it was His Majesty's decision to release him. I don't know what agreement His Majesty the Emperor made with the Third Prince. The Third Prince took Lu Nian as a slave from the prison. out.Seeing this, Luo Qinghuan couldn't continue to stop her, so Lu Nian just left her sight.

Chu Yan's intelligence network spread all over the world, and he might have locked on Lu Nian early on. This made Luo Qinghuan have to think about the worse: Chu Yan's eyes had been on the throne from the very beginning, even if he didn't Wang Yuqing, he also wants to seize the throne.

……

"Princess, princess, my son-in-law is looking for you to enjoy the flowers in the garden!"

Luo Qinghuan who was concentrating on reading in the room paused when she heard Ruan'er's words, but Gu Zihang actually wanted to see her, which is really rare.

After arriving in the garden, Luo Qinghuan looked at the sumptuous dishes under the peach tree and raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Gu Zihang was sitting at the main seat at this time, and there was no trace of Wang Yuqing beside him, but Luo Qinghuan recognized the side dishes on the table as being made by the heroine.Seeing Luo Qinghuan's arrival, Gu Zihang stood up to greet her with a smile. Luo Qinghuan did not refute him and sat beside him with a smile.

"Qing Huan, see if these are your favorite food."

"The son-in-law has a heart."

Luo Qinghuan glanced roughly, every dish was very delicate, it could be seen that some effort had been put into it, so she moved her chopsticks without hesitation, Gu Zihang didn't seem to expect her to be so impolite, just about to say the next sentence The words choked in his throat.

In Luo Qinghuan's eyes, there is no him at all, only the delicious food in front of him.

It wasn't until the meal was almost over that Luo Qinghuan had time to glance at him, but the smile on Gu Zihang's face had already become extremely stiff.

"Princess, are you satisfied with the taste?"

"Not bad, son-in-law, if there is nothing else, I will leave first."

"and many more!"

"What else is there for the son-in-law?"

Luo Qinghuan's tone was a little cold, and Gu Zihang's face was distorted for a moment, but he soon returned to his appearance as a handsome young man, and leaned towards Luo Qinghuan.Luo Qing laughed and said nothing, neither stopped nor took the initiative, just quietly waiting for him to speak.

"Qing Huan, can you accompany me to Jing'an Temple tomorrow?"

Jing'an Temple, one of the largest temples in Kyoto, every year at this time, the female family members of the rich and powerful families will bring their children to visit the Buddha here to bless the future generations with wealth and prosperity. Of course, there are many old ladies who come to seek marriage for their sons Jun, I picked up the unmarried female family members of Shangxiang, trying to leave the best for the unmarried younger generations at home. The original owner has always disliked this kind of environment where people come and go too lively, so every year, he randomly sends people to Jing'an Temple Ask for a sign to make a show.This state continued until Gu Zihang married her, which was also one of Gu Zihang's few chances to go out, and now Gu Zihang's sudden invitation, I don't know if it was Wang Yuqing's instigation.

"Since the son-in-law's request, then..." Luo Qinghuan turned her head and took the handkerchief handed over by the servant, and touched the corner of her lips gracefully. Gu Zihang stared at her nervously when he heard the words, but saw Luo Qing happily He raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Then there is no reason why this Palace should not do it, everything is under the arrangement of the son-in-law."

……

Although the mountain road to Jing'an Temple was rough and bumpy, the carriage from the Princess' Mansion was fairly stable. Luo Qinghuan and Gu Zihang took the same carriage and arrived at Jing'an Temple without a word.

It's not that Gu Zihang didn't find something to chat with Luo Qinghuan in the car, it's a pity that one is reluctant and the other is too lazy to perfunctory, after Gu Zihang said a few words, he didn't even receive a response, no matter how much patience he had Luo Qinghuan was exhausted.

After finally reaching the destination, the carriage barely stopped. Gu Zihang jumped off first, while Luo Qinghuan was a step behind, and Ruan Er helped her out of the carriage.

Following Gu Zihang's footsteps up the stairs, Luo Qinghuan, who came here for the first time, looked at the magnificent and magnificent buildings of Jing'an Temple, slightly lost in thought.

At the main entrance of Jing’an Temple, there are a few monks carefully cleaning the dust on the steps, and the bells in the temple can be heard from a distance. I don’t know if it’s because they came too early. At this time, there are very few pilgrims. Jing'an Temple seemed a little deserted.

"Qing Huan, be careful!"

Luo Qinghuan, who was in a trance, didn't notice the loose stones under his feet. He stepped on it and caused his body to lose weight. Gu Zihang, who had been paying attention to her side, suddenly reminded him that Luo Qinghuan was helped by him before he could stand still. live.

The bodies of the two were very close, Gu Zihang's hand fell on her chest inadvertently, and he was stiff for a moment and did not leave.

"Thank you, son-in-law. But—it's time for the son-in-law to let go of me." Gu Zihang was still patient, but Luo Qinghuan's voice had already drifted over. Gu Zihang looked down and saw the eyes of the woman in his arms getting colder , let go of his hand involuntarily.

Leaving Gu Zihang's embrace, Luo Qing caressed the slightly tilted silver hairpin, and walked in front of him holding her skirt.

Gu Zihang took a step behind, the disgust in his eyes deepened.

This woman still looks so superior, damn it, if it wasn't for Qing'er, he would feel dirty even touching her!
Because of the enhanced intuition, Luo Qinghuan could sense Gu Zihang's strong resentment without turning her head, and her steps began to speed up unconsciously.
