He stepped steadily into the door and looked at Zhao Yuting who was very devoted to acting with unfathomable eyes .
In the extreme stare of shock of the other party, Bai Qingqing, who was held in Zhao Yuting’s arms, was then held by him .
“The Ninth, don’t you need to explain why you should have been in Fengyang and suddenly appeared in the capital?”
The warmth in Zhao Yuting’s arms suddenly disappeared . He watched Bai Qingqing fall into his brother’s arms . His eyes narrowed slightly, but he did not immediately show his displeasure .
“Brother, you and I haven’t seen each other for six years . Now we meet again, and should you show your welcome in this way?”
Zhao Yuchen sneered: “I just want to hear the answer from your mouth . ”
He did not expect that The Ninth finally entered the capital under his surveillance . It seemed that he had gained many skills, which really impressed him .
“Brother, have you forgotten that it is not unreasonable for me to return here to worship ancestors as a member of the blood of the emperor’s heirs on the day of the royal sacrificial ceremonies in the near future?”
Zhao Yuchen smiled coldly . “If you really miss your ancestors, why never have I seen you in the royal sacrificial ceremonies in the past six years?”
“That’s because in the first few years when I came to the feudal land, my body was not very good . Now I have recovered well, so I want to show my filial piety and make up for it in front of my ancestors . Besides, I heard that the eye disease of the brother has recovered . I also want to take this opportunity to come and express my congratulations to you . ”
“Then that’s so kind of you . ”
Although he knew that the answer was half true and half false, Zhao Yuchen did not want to expose him .
At this time, all his thoughts were on Bai Qingqing . As for those people of little importance who cherish evil designs, he had plenty of time and energy to crucify them one by one .
Now he saw Qingqing’s perfect appearance in his eyes, and his worry for a long time had finally declined .
Now that he had picked her up safely, he naturally had no mood to stay in the Prime Minister Mansion and circle around with people .
Then he made an excuse, claiming that the little emperor in the palace caught a cold in the past few days and needed Bai Qingqing to go back personally to serve and take care of him, and so stately took her away under Zhao Yuting’s eyes .
, Zhao Yuchen couldn’t wait to take Bai Qingqing into his arms and kiss her delicate pink lips as soon as they stepped out of the prime minister’s palace and sat in the sedan chair back to the palace .
“Hmm . . . ”
The woman in his arms seemed to feel his nervousness and anxiety . At first she gave a sweet cry, then she spread out her arms, tightly clinging to his shoulders, and responded warmly and hard to his intimacy and caress .
When his lips slowly pulled away from her lip, Bai Qingqing subconsciously wanted to explain the relationship between her and Zhao Yuting .
In his last life, because he did not trust her, he caused the tragedy .
After her rebirth, she did not want the tragedy to continue .
After all, in her heart, she never liked Zhao Yuting .
Only did the words come out of her mouth, they were slightly hidden back by the other side . freewebnovel. com
He earnestly gave her three words, “I believe you!”
At that moment, she heard the sincerity and trust in his tone, and believed that when he said the words “I believe you”, it was absolutely true .
Bai Qingqing suddenly felt an unspeakable feeling and sweetness . She slowly buried her face in his chest, and on her way back to the palace, she slowly revealed the past and experience of these days, meanwhile, she carefully asked him how he escaped from danger at that time .
And that Zhao Yuchen could know that Bai Qingqing went to the Prime Minister Mansion in such a short time, was naturally because that his informers accidentally found traces of Zhao Yuting outside the city .
Since The Ninth was given a feudal land and rushed to Fengyang, he sent his men to keep an eye on his movements .
As a result, they still lost trace of him . It seemed that the disasters one after another had a great relationship with the sudden appearance of him .
The little emperor, who had been waiting in the palace for a long time, saw Bai Qingqing come back safely . Almost without thinking, he rushed into her arms .
Bai Qingqing did not expect that the little emperor should be so enthusiastic about her . For a moment, her heart was moved and she burst into tears with the little emperor .
Zhao Yuchen wanted to reprimand the little emperor for crying as the emperor . It was a shame .
But seeing the other side so dependent on Bai Qingqing, he could help but feel a warm flow in his heart .
Was not it the greatest wish and expectation he had had for many years that the family gathered together happily?
The little emperor, who shed a lot of tears, laughed again at Bai Qingqing’s comfort .
When the father was not watching, he came to Bai Qingqing’s ear and whispered, “Bai Jiejie, in the days when you were missing, the father had trouble eating and sleeping, and his hair grew grey with anxiety . I know that father likes you, in fact, I also like you, so . . . ”
The little emperor’s big round eyes rolled slightly, and he smiled . “I have asked father, and once we find you, we will let him marry you and make you the empress . ”
Bai Qingqing’s face turned red . Although she knew that the little emperor really liked her, she did not realize that the other side was still thinking of letting her be the empress .
“Bai Jiejie, you will promise father to be his wife and my empress mother, won’t you?”
Bai Qingqing was asked by the little emperor in such a straightforward way that she did not know how to answer . Her eyes instinctively glanced at Zhao Yuchen and gave him a look for help .
Zhao Yuchen, who was slowly drinking tea with a cup in his hand, smiled at her with an ill-intentioned look and pretended to be casual: “I remember someone who personally promised me one thing on the way back from Putuo Temple, Qingqing . Do you remember what it was?”
She promised to marry him again, and she said it herself .
Now one of the two men was the emperor, and the other was his father, the Emperor Emeritus . If she, the countryside girl dared to lie to them, she would commit the crime of deceiving the emperor .
When his family was reunited under the same roof of the Palace of Harmony, Liu Xiangyi in the Palace of Inlaid Harp was furious and shaking with anger .
She thought that the robbery would directly kill Bai Qingqing . As a result, a few days later, the girl in question should be safely taken back to the palace by the Sacred Emperor to enjoy their happiness of family reunion .
No, she said explicitly in her letter that no matter what she paid, she must let the secret instigator kill Bai Qingqing .
But why did the other party let Bai Qingqing back in the end?
Liu Xiangyi, unable to overcome her doubts, sent her maidservants away and found her carrier pigeon . She wrote another urgent letter and let the pigeon send it away .
As a result, the little pigeon just flew out of the courtyard and was hijacked by the secret guards hidden around the Palace of Inlaid Harp .
In order to pull out the man behind-the-scenes, Zhao Yuchen had already laid an invisible net preventing all escape, secretly observing every movement in the imperial harem .
It didn’t take long for Liu Xiangyi’s letter to fall through and stand exposed . The contents in the letter sold her completely .
Faced with irrefutable evidence, Liu Xiangyi, who was arrested and brought to justice, immediately realized that her doom day was approaching .
To Liu Xiangyi’s despair, Zhao Yuchen caught the astrologer who falsely accused Bai Qingqing of being a bane .
The other side confessed under torture, saying that he was indeed bought over that day, deliberately releasing the news about the bane to the palace, which caused panic among the people .
As for the evil backstage manipulator, he did not know who he was, but said that he had given him a sum of money and some jewelry .
Zhao Yuchen asked people to find out what he had been bribed by . Among the piles of jewelry, he found several hairpins . After careful investigation, the owner of the hairpinsturned out to be Liu Xiangyi .
At this moment, Liu Xiangyi looked sadly at Zhao Yuchen, who interrogated her personally, and cried, “Now, I know that no more excuses can help me . Before I die, I just want to ask you a question . If Su Ruoqing did not exist, would you fall in love with me in those years?”
Faced with this problem, Zhao Yuchen gave her a faint smile .
“Liu Xiangyi, don’t you forget why you were selected to the Crown Prince Palace by me to become Crown Side-Princess that year?”
Liu Xiangyi certainly did not forget .
Zhao Yuchen, who was the Crown Prince, was supposed to tell the world that he would only marry Su Ruoqing in his life .
She and Chen Yuerong would not have had the chance to step half way into the Crown Prince Palace if the former emperor hadn’t boisterously stopped Zhao Yuchen .
For this, the former emperor selected a group of beauties with both ability and political integrity from the family of the officials in the government for the Crown Prince, Zhao Yuchen to choose from .
