Shen Ruoxi took a step back slightly.

"Your Majesty, you are so polite. I came here to play in private today, so there is no need for these false courtesy."

"it is good."

Qin Chengxuan straightened up slightly.

Wan Siyu was a little confused: "Your Majesty, how did you recognize Ruoxi?" ?.??????.???

"The Crown Princess and I are old acquaintances, and we are naturally more familiar than others. Besides, Miss Taoye is still with me, so I am sure that she is the Crown Princess."

Qin Chengxuan showed a gentle smile, and then looked at Shen Ruoxi.

"Princess, I have something important that I want to talk to you about alone. Can you please take a moment to speak?"

Shen Ruoxi originally wanted to refuse, but seeing Qin Chengxuan's serious expression, it seemed that there was something important.

He nodded.

"can."

A few people walked to a relatively secluded pavilion. Others stood outside the pavilion. Shen Ruoxi and Qin Chengxuan walked in.

The two of them stood in the pavilion, and Qin Chengxuan's expression suddenly became solemn.

He said directly.

"During the prince's canonization ceremony, the queen was poisoned. The emperor left this matter to me to investigate."

"Well, I was also present when this happened. Why did the Crown Prince talk to me about this matter today?"

"Because of this matter..."

Qin Chengxuan hesitated for a moment, thought about it, and said directly: "This matter is complicated. I followed up on the investigation and found... I found that the prince was also involved."

Shen Ruoxi turned her eyes, and there was a trace of thought on her beautiful face.

“What does the prince’s words... mean?”

"Ruoxi."

Qin Chengxuan spoke in a low voice and changed his title: "From the perspective of a friend, I am just telling you the truth about what I have found out."

He said: "The poison that the queen was poisoned came from the Yaowang Valley, and the owner of the Yaowang Valley, Bai Luo... is inextricably related to the prince."

Hearing this, Shen Ruoxi understood.

Qin Chengxuan suspected that the queen's poison was the work of Murong Heng.

"The power struggle in the palace is complicated and ever-changing. I know that you, a woman, are not the ones who can understand and intervene. I think... you may not know the prince very well."

Qin Chengxuan's expression slightly condensed.

These words were treasonous and confidential. He shouldn't have told Shen Ruoxi originally, but he always felt uneasy about his conscience.

Murong Heng was too deep. If Shen Ruoxi didn't know his true face, it would be unfair in this relationship.

She wanted to see clearly what kind of person the person beside her was.

After hearing Qin Chengxuan's words, Shen Ruoxi had no emotional ups and downs.

Her eyes were light and she gave him a gentle smile.

"It is rare for the Crown Prince to risk such rudeness to tell me this matter, but... I know everything the Crown Prince said."

"you know?"

Qin Chengxuan was slightly surprised.

Shen Ruoxi nodded: "Not only do I know, I also know the inside story."

She said seriously: "The queen's poison has nothing to do with the prince."

Hearing this, Qin Chengxuan's expression calmed down slightly.

"Did the prince tell you?"

"Ah."

"Maybe... he lied to you?"

Will Murong Heng tell the truth about such a confidential matter?

"Whether he lied to me or not, the prince will find out if he continues to investigate. But please rest assured, prince, I was not kept in the dark by A-Heng. I understand what kind of person he is."

Mentioning Murong Heng, a trace of tenderness flashed in Shen Ruoxi's eyes.

"Admittedly, I don't know everything about him, but whenever I want to know, he will tell me... Your Majesty, if you know A-Heng, you will know that A-Heng treats me sincerely, and he is worthy of my love and trust." .”

Hearing this, Qin Chengxuan's eyes moved slightly, and he didn't know what he felt in his heart.

Does she trust and like Murong Heng so much?

Shen Ruoxi turned her head slightly and looked at the man in front of her.

"I know that the Crown Prince is a good son with both civil and military skills. I appreciate you, and I believe A-Heng is too. If the Crown Prince is willing, you might as well try to know more about A-Heng. He is the crown prince and the future lord of the world. Sooner or later, the Crown Prince will want to You serve him, don’t you?”

"Princess...what she said makes sense."

Qin Chengxuan smiled bitterly.

Originally, he was worried that you, Shen Ruoxi, might be frightened if you heard what he said.

She didn't want to, but she looked like she knew everything.

Not only did he not have the slightest doubt about Murong Heng, he even persuaded him to serve Murong Heng.

In the end, I was just a villain, and I was afraid that it would make her unhappy.

"However, I am still very grateful to the prince."

Shen Ruoxi spoke slowly, bringing Qin Chengxuan back from his thoughts.

Qin Chengxuan turned his head and saw a hint of smile in her beautiful eyes exposed outside the veil: "It is my honor that the prince treats my friend sincerely."

Her words instantly relieved Qin Chengxuan's uneasiness.

He immediately lowered his eyes.

"No, it's my honor to know the Crown Princess..."

It was his honor to meet her.

It's just that he doesn't have the blessing to be her husband.

Wan Siyu and others were waiting outside and were a little curious when they saw Qin Chengxuan and Shen Ruoxi chatting there for a long time without coming over.

"Strange, what is the prince talking to Ruoxi?"

"There must be something important."

"I'll go listen."

Wan Siyu's actions were faster than his brain, and Tao Ye had no time to stop him, and saw Wan Siyu slipping past like a loach, then ducking down and getting closer and closer to the two of them.

As she got closer, she strained her ears to listen.

Just as she was about to reach the nearest pillar, she saw Qin Chengxuan, whose back had been turned to her, suddenly turned around.
