Facing those expectant eyes, Jamel Xiao was speechless.

When she asked him for help that day, she made it very clear that she wanted to help His Highness find this life-saving old friend, and also wanted to persuade him to come to Dazhou to serve.

Before this is done, you must not tell anyone else, especially His Highness.

He also said that His Highness must be impressed and don't always look down on women.

Xiao Jingnan's eyes were dim. What if Qianqian knew that His Highness didn't take the woman seriously, but that he didn't take the woman next to him seriously?

However, this may just be his guess.

After all, that person is already the imperial concubine and has an heir with Qi Jun.

When the Lord heard that she was pregnant, he sent a congratulatory gift——

Xiao Jingnan frowned. When the two countries had just reached a truce, it was reasonable for the Lord to send a congratulatory gift in order to stabilize Qi Jun, but this person was her.

The Lord clearly knows the truth, so how can he ignore His Highness's mood?

Xiao Jingnan stood attentively, something was vaguely wrong.

"Brother, have you found it?" Xiao Qianyi shook Xiao Jingnan's arm anxiously, "The dignified prince of Yinyue Mansion has always become so hesitant and hesitant when talking or doing things. Jiji?"

Xiao Jingnan looked into his shining eyes and sighed silently. When it comes to His Highness's life experience, he should be cautious.

"Not found."

Xiao Qianyi frowned: "Didn't you find it?"

Jamel Xiao responded: "Just because I haven't found it, I don't know how to tell you."

"Oh……"

The light in Xiao Qianyi's eyes dimmed, and she was frustrated and dissatisfied as her hopes failed. "This person is really mysterious. Even our Yinyue Mansion can't find out."

Xiao Jingnan apologized and comforted: "According to what you said, even Dr. Chen would be full of praise. He must be an expert in medical skills and extraordinary. If you can't protect him, you are an expert who lives in seclusion."

"That's right." Xiao Qianyi didn't doubt that he was there, she lowered her head and remained silent.

Xiao Jingnan couldn't bear it. He had never lied to her before.

He tried his best to force a smile: "I suddenly remembered that I still have something to discuss with His Highness. You go back to your room and rest first. When I finish my work for the past two days, I will accompany you to Zui Jiangyue. Haven't you always wanted to see Hu Ji?"

"Really?" Xiao Qianyi's eyes lit up.

I heard that there are Orchid girls in Luo'an City. They have high noses, beautiful eyes, and passionate and energetic temperaments. They are very different from Han women.

It's a pity that she is not allowed to go to a place like a wine shop, even if her father and brother let her go on weekdays.

After Xiao Jingnan reassured her again and again, Xiao Qianyi left with peace of mind.

When Xiao Qianyi turned around, Xiao Jingnan no longer had any smile on his face. After thinking about it, he decided to go to His Highness's study.

He took a step forward as he thought about it.

Wait until Qingzi's figure disappears.

Xiao Qianyi's head poked out from behind the stone door. This Xiao Jingnan hesitated for a long time, just to tell her that nothing was found? And for the first time, he promised to take her to a wine shop?

Huh, he must be hiding a secret from her.

Xiao Qianyi raised her lips and actually learned to lie to her.

Although she was angry, she felt strange. What is it that cannot be told directly to her?

Xiao Qianyi straightened up, looked a few steps away, and waved to the maid in the distance.

Immediately, a maid came forward. Xiao Qianyi whispered a few words of advice and turned around to go to Xiao Jingnan's residence.

*

On the small stove in the study room, there was a delicate small copper pot, the slender spout was puffing with white steam.

Yu Wenjue took off his heavy long mitzvah and outer robe, only wearing loose casual clothes.

There was a secret letter lying on the desk, and there was still a small kapok flower painted on the seal of the letter.

He opened the letter and read it in just a few glances.

Not only was the time of the letter wrong, but the content was also really surprising.

Yu Wenjue threw the letter into the small drawer and looked at the snowy scene outside the window. A scene flashed through his mind, so far away that it was almost impossible to tell whose memory it belonged to.

In fact, no matter who it belongs to and what impact it had, it is a thing of the past.

"Your Highness."

Yu Wenjue turned his face sideways, and Qingzhu approached holding a tea cup.

Yu Wenjue took the tea cup, his eyebrows darkened slightly, he pursed his lips and asked, "Where's Guan Song?"

Qingzhu raised his eyes and replied: "I'm still in Wuling Mansion with Guyu and others."

Yu Wenjue frowned and smiled: "Tell them that they don't have to guard anymore and set off back to Jinye on another day."

Back to Jinye?

Qingzhu was stunned for a moment, lowered his eyebrows, and said respectfully: "Yes."

After the former general Lu Xiu passed away, Guan Song and others took the fake corpse and found a geomantic treasure land in Wuling Mansion on the border of Zhou Kingdom. They buried the body and guarded the fake tomb for more than half a year.

In the past half year, people looking for Lu Xiu’s body came one after another...

It has never stopped. Except for following the instructions and letting someone steal it once, no one else has succeeded.

Now, once someone is separated, wouldn’t it be even more suspicious if the fake tomb is empty?

Qingzhu hesitated for a moment, then raised her head and glanced at the person in the corner. No matter when or where she was, she had never seen Yu Chiyuan express an opinion. He always kept a straight face and remained silent.

It is estimated that even if His Highness asked him to draw his sword and kill himself immediately, he would not ask more questions.

Qingzhu's heart skipped a beat and he simply said: "Your Highness, please forgive me for talking too much——"

Yu Wenjue raised his eyebrows slightly and laughed softly, then narrowed his eyes and looked at her: "Since you know you are talking too much, you shouldn't speak. You just need to learn to obey."

Qingzhu's face turned pale, he bit his lip and knelt down: "Yes, I have overstepped my bounds and am willing to be punished."

"Yeah." Yu Wenjue lowered his eyes and drank tea.

Qingzhu bowed and stepped back. Another maid passed by and came in to report.

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince is here."

Yu Wenjue stared at the foam in the tea soup and frowned.

After a while, the maid led Xiao Jingnan in.

"Your Highness," Xiao Jingnan thought for a while and decided to ask clearly.

Yu Wenjue put down the tea cup and stood up with a smile in his eyes: "You probably haven't had time to have dinner yet, right?"

What he was about to say was interrupted unexpectedly. Xiao Jingnan opened his mouth, paused for a moment, and replied: "I haven't returned to the courtyard yet."

Yu Wenjue nodded slightly: "Then we will use them together."

After hearing this, the maid hurriedly went to prepare.

Xiao Jingnan followed Yu Wenjue out of the study.

A meal does not take long, but it seems extremely long.

Since he moved into the palace, he has never had a meal with His Highness. He originally wanted to test out His Highness's tone of voice before eating, and mention something about His Highness's past relationship, but who would have thought that His Highness would be quiet from beginning to end? Have a quiet meal.

It's true that you can't eat without words.

Xiao Jingnan thought that only he and Qianqian knew about the past, and Qianqian still knew only a little about it. As long as they were careful about their words and actions, there was no need to say some things.

Xiao Jingnan was full of worries and really had no appetite.

After finally finishing the meal, who would have thought that Gongsun Xu came again.

Xiao Jingnan looked over, and His Highness almost forgot that he had something to say, and only listened to Gongsun describing the gossip of various aristocratic families in Luo'an City.

Gongsun Xu and His Highness are not at odds with each other. Why would Gongsun Xu make a special trip at night just to talk about trivial gossip?

Xiao Jingnan was a little puzzled, but suddenly his thoughts suddenly moved, and he finally understood the reason why His Highness said he would not lead troops.

He shook his head secretly, ashamed.

He also mistakenly thought that His Highness allowed him to eat to stop his mouth.

His Highness clearly knew that Gongsun Xu was coming, so he asked himself to stay and listen, so that he could know his true intentions.

Xiao Jingnan felt relieved when he heard Gongsun Xu ask over there: "When will your highness set off?"

Xiao Jingnan was surprised: "Starting?"

Gongsun Xu looked at him a little funny: "Didn't His Highness just say that he was going to Jinye?"
