miscalculation

Chapter 25 Chapter 25

Concubine Ji Shu sat in Chuxiu Palace and waited until Wushi, when she saw a servant helping the drunk Xiao Jue back.She waved her hand, and asked someone to help him in to rest, and called the accompanying people to ask questions, but when she learned about the toast tonight, she didn't say anything.

Seeing Concubine Ji Shu's displeasure, Jinyue said, "Mother, we sent people to assassinate that Qin Xin repeatedly, just to make Shen Lingjiao give up. It's a pity that we lost his trace for no reason, so we can only forge a bloody coat to force her to submit obediently. Married to the King of Yue. Although Qin Xin's whereabouts are unknown now, at any rate, nothing bad happened today. Do you want to continue to track down this person's whereabouts?"

"Hmph, keeping this person is bound to be a future trouble, so send someone to investigate further. How could he suddenly disappear as an outsider in such a big capital city. Let people spread the word, and if he is found, he will be executed immediately. After the incident is completed, the palace will reward him a lot." " Concubine Ji Shu took a sip of tea and said.

"Your Majesty, the people below have reported that it's not just our group of people who are looking for him, it seems that Zhao Wangfu also sent people to look for him, but the purpose is unknown, and it doesn't look like they want to kill him. But since Zhao Wang was imprisoned, there has been no action. .”

"How does King Zhao know who he is? Hurry up and find out how this person got involved with King Zhao? Also, King Zhao can't protect himself now. Presumably it's not King Zhao's mansion protecting him. I'm just afraid that this matter will have nothing to do with Liu Chen The concubine can't get away with it!" Concubine Ji Shu stood up, walked to the window, thought for a while, and then said, "Today, I decided to be rude, and let people prepare a big gift and send it to the Yue Palace tomorrow to make amends."

"Your Majesty! You have raised the King of Yue until now, and you have done your best. Why bother to make amends? Can he still be dissatisfied?"

"Stupid! The apology is to give Jue'er a favor, so that all the officials will not complain about Due'er. As for King Yue, hmph, when Jue'er takes that position, I will definitely not keep him. By the way, Order to go down, let the maid given by His Majesty a few days ago wait for Jue'er to go to bed." Concubine Ji Shu said, and didn't say any more.

"Yes." Jinyue smiled slightly, then turned around and ordered.

Xiao Qian never expected that there would be such a change in the bridal chamber, so he said: "Miss Shen, who are you talking about Qin Xin?"

"Stop pretending! You even sent someone to give me his bloody coat, and you still want to deny it! Tell me quickly, what did you do to him, and beat around the bush again, and be careful that I won't show mercy." Shen Lingjiao didn't dare to be careless in the slightest, and continued to press her.

"This king really doesn't know who this person is? I just don't know what relationship he has with you to make you threaten the prince with a knife? You are not afraid that the Shen family will be implicated for this. This is a capital offense. If you let outsiders know, Even I can't protect you." Xiao Qian was calm and composed, he didn't care about the dagger that lay across his vitals.

"You're right. Even if my Shen family is rich in the world, it's nothing more than ordinary people. If you dare to offend your royal family! I should have understood, why would you let Qin Xin go? Why don't I go with him, one person does things alone Dan, I hope you will let the Shen family go!" Shen Lingjiao turned the dagger upside down and stabbed herself.

Xiao Qian already understood half of what he heard, and quickly reached out to snatch her dagger, but the knife was fast, and his arm was cut immediately, and blood was pouring out immediately.

Shen Lingjiao didn't expect that he would save her. Now that she couldn't commit suicide, she knelt down immediately and said, "Your Highness, I heard that you are humble and generous. You are a gentleman. As long as you let our Shen family go, no matter how you torture me, Lingjiao No complaints at all. But I beg Your Highness to let Qin Xin live, I swear that I will never see him again in this life!"

When Xiao Qian heard her swear by his life, he knew that she had a deep-rooted affection for Qin Xin, and he couldn't help but think of Xiao Jue, wondering how he was drunk today, and what happened after he returned to the palace.Thinking that he seldom drank, and would pester himself to make fools of himself every time he was drunk, he couldn't help feeling sad.She lost her mind for a moment and did not respond for a long time, which made Shen Lingjiao anxious, thinking that Qin Xin had already been killed.

"Your Highness? Your Highness? If Qin Xin is dead, my life is meaningless. Why don't I just let him go." As she spoke, she wanted to pick up the dagger on the ground, but was kicked away by Xiao Qian.

"Come over here first, and bandage this king's wound. If the blood continues to flow like this, I'm afraid you'll have to call the imperial doctor. You don't want to explain to the royal father why my arm was injured on the wedding night, do you?"

Shen Lingjiao hurried forward, took a hipa and bandaged him. Fortunately, the wound was not big, and the bleeding soon stopped.

"This king really doesn't know about the Qin Xin you mentioned, let alone the matter of the bloody clothes. Don't worry, this king will send someone to look for him and ensure that he leaves the capital safely." Xiao Qian knew that this Qin Xin was very Eighty-nine of them were taken by concubine Ji Shu's people. I'm afraid that it's bad luck, so I can only speak to appease Shen Lingjiao.

"If His Highness didn't do this, who would want to harm him?" Shen Lingjiao was still dubious.

"Don't ask too much, this king has his own decision on this matter."

"If it really has nothing to do with His Highness, I hope His Highness doesn't have to look for him." Shen Lingjiao was still worried that Xiao Qian would continue to look for someone and kill him.

"It seems that Miss Shen still can't trust me, so it's up to you." Xiao Qian laughed at himself.

It was already late at night, the red candle was weeping, but the couple were silent for a while, Shen Lingjiao only felt uncomfortable, but didn't know how to speak.

"It's late at night, why don't you rest early." Xiao Qian said.

When Shen Lingjiao heard the words, she lowered her head and dared not respond, and said, "The Xipa and Xifu are both dirty, what should I do tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow morning, I will ask my servants to bring a brand new set. You can bring me the quilt first." Xiao Qian said.

There are two sets of mandarin duck quilts on the bed, but they are meant to symbolize auspiciousness.Xiao Qian took the red candle away, put on the quilt, leaned back on the chair, and said: "You sleep on the bed, I'll just sit and rest. The people in the palace must still be in the mansion tonight, I can't go out in the middle of the night. sleep."

Without waiting for Shen Lingjiao to say more, Xiao Qian blew out the candle, closed his eyes and rested.Shen Lingjiao put down the cloth tent, she was full of thoughts, she was afraid of Xiao Qian's surprise attack in the middle of the night, so she didn't dare to sleep in peace.One of them was sitting and the other was lying down, and they didn't get up until dawn.

Shen Lingjiao stood up, still full of doubts, not knowing why Xiao Qian was so tolerant.Xiao Qian opened his eyes, as if he knew what she was thinking, but he said again: "You call your maid to come and get a set of wedding clothes and handkerchiefs. We changed the clothes before they knocked on the door. This suit is today I don’t need to wear them anymore, presumably they won’t see any flaws.”

"Wait a minute, Your Highness, I want to know why..." Shen Lingjiao hesitated to speak.

"You don't need to ask, we are all the same. There is someone in your heart, and there is someone in my heart. So, do you understand?" Xiao Qian said.

"You are the prince, why don't you marry that girl in, is there any difficulty?"

Hearing this, Xiao Qian smiled wryly and said, "This girl can't be married."

The Palace of the Prince of Yue was safe and sound, so the day passed like this.After dinner, Xiao Qian went to the study, leaving Shen Lingjiao alone.

She looked up and saw Yuzhu's snickering face, so she frowned and asked, "You girl, why are you smiling so hard?"

"Slaves dare not speak, for fear of your punishment."

"Don't be tricky, just say it!"

"Why did the prince's wedding dress be torn when he sent it down today? Could it be..." Yuzhu smiled mysteriously.

"Could it be what?" Shen Lingjiao couldn't help being startled.

"My lord looked at Sven, could it be that the monkey is very anxious? Otherwise, why would the clothes be torn?" After Yuzhu finished speaking, she took a few steps back.

"You girl, don't talk nonsense. And the blood on the Xipa, don't mention it to others, or I'll take your skin off." Shen Lingjiao said angrily.

"Yes, the servant knows."

"You go back first, you don't have to wait any longer."

"Yes."

For two days in a row, Xiao Qian stayed in the room, mostly sleeping on a chair.The servants discussed one after another, they only said that the prince was newly married and he was indeed brave, this word spread to Xiao Jue's ears, causing trouble again.Seeing that he was like this all day long, Shen Lingjiao knew that it was not a long-term solution, so she said: "My lord, since I have married into the palace, I naturally won't think about him. If you can't let go of that girl, why not..."

"I understand what you mean, so I don't need to say any more. Tomorrow is the day of Guining. Let's go to Yin's Mansion first, and then to Shen's Mansion. We are very busy, so let's rest earlier."

As Xiao Qian said, he put on the quilt and slept on the chair again.Shen Lingjiao was still worried about Qin Xin's whereabouts, and she also had a sad face.What she didn't expect was that seeing Qin Xin again was a farewell forever.
