Chapter 53 This is an elopement
Xue Qinghe's eyes widened and he almost choked to death at these words.
How, how dare she say this to King Xuan?
Prince Xuan, however, paused, took a deep look at Xue Qingyin, then a flash of color flashed across his eyes, and said: "Let's go."
Xue Qingyin followed obediently.
"You guys come together," she said to Xue Qinghe.
King Xuan frowned without any trace, but said nothing.
King Xuan led them to stand behind a huge screen.
There are three screens in total, and at a glance, the line of sight is severely blurred.
But they finally knew why they didn't see anyone else on the road?
Because the other ladies who came to the banquet had just entered the palace one by one to pay their respects.
And they stood like this behind the screen, easily overlooking the other noble ladies.
Qiu Xin's heart beat rapidly for a moment, and her breathing became heavy.
Those noble ladies...
Just like that, he lowered their head.
Is this the happiness that power and status can bring?
Xue Qingyin looked at the scene in front of her and was very shocked.
No wonder I brought her here...
She quietly moved forward, touched King Xuan, and tugged on his sleeve again.
King Xuan looked sideways.
Xue Qingyin gestured at him, gesturing for him to lower his head, otherwise how could she talk to him?
King Xuan leaned towards her.
Xue Qingyin leaned close to his ear: "How does Your Highness know what I want to do?"
"But after a quick investigation, I found out that Xue Qinghe was pushed to the ground that day. It will be obvious what you want to do with the palace banquet." King Xuan said lightly.
After saying that, he paused: "It seems that Miss Xue does not really want to come to the banquet."
If you say you want to marry him, you lose half of your convincing power.
Xue Qingyin didn't feel guilty at all. Instead, she smiled and said, "Your Highness and I are really in tune with each other. We can guess right."
Suddenly, an emotion surged secretly in King Xuan's heart.
He couldn't tell what kind of emotion it was, so he just stared at Xue Qingyin, feeling that her face was lively and pleasing to the eye.
He asked in an indifferent tone: "What's next?"
"Huh? Next? Of course we have to arrest the person who pushed the person!" Xue Qingyin said without thinking.
"What you should say next..." King Xuan paused and repeated what she had said several times in an indifferent tone: "There is nothing to repay, but what?"
Let’s compose words into sentences here, what about writing Chinese homework?
Xue Qingyin smacked her lips, unable to understand what King Xuan meant for a while, so she could only continue tentatively: "Promise me with my body?"
She thought for a moment that something was wrong, and defended herself: "I usually only say the first half of the sentence."
"Did you never think about the last part of the sentence?" King Xuan stared at her.
Xue Qingyin felt as if she caught a glimpse of interest in his cold pupils.
Xue Qingyin whispered: "That's something I've thought about."
She was cruel and thought that since you have already asked me, let's be bolder.
Xue Qingyin said: "I have thought about committing myself to His Highness Prince Xuan, but..." She shook her head and said: "My eldest brother always said that whoever marries me will be really unlucky for eight lifetimes."
King Xuan's eyes became a little colder.
He said: "Really?"
Xue Qingyin sighed in a very low voice: "I am also weak in health and may not be able to give birth to children. I also have a bad temper and cannot bear to be wronged. I also like to wear gold and silver, brocade clothes and gorgeous clothes, and spend money like water. If you are Your Highness,
If you really marry me, then you find out that I am such a person, what if you kick me out of the house in anger?"
Virtuous and dignified, well-informed, gentle and considerate...etc., there are so many other advantages, none of which can be found in her!
Looking at it this way, it seems that only people like King Wei who were taken advantage of only looked at faces and nothing else.
Xue Qingyin thought that was terrible!
King Xuan spoke again, he whispered: "Today's palace banquet, my father will name you Princess Wei."
When Xue Qingyin heard this, her scalp almost exploded.
What what?
Why did it come so suddenly?
She struggled to find her voice: "But Concubine Wan doesn't like me?"
King Xuan's voice was so low that it was almost inaudible: "It's because she doesn't like you."
Xue Qingyin felt that she probably understood.
The emperor did not want King Wei to be too close to his mother's clan!
He Songning wanted to weaken his power, and the emperor also wanted to cut off the bond between him and his mother clan!
Thinking back to what happened in the Lotus Garden that day, every word everyone said seemed to have a deep meaning.
Oh, except herself.
"Do you want to marry King Wei?" King Xuan's voice sounded in her ears again.
Xue Qingyin shook her head instinctively.
At this time, Qiu Xin suddenly grabbed Xue Qinghe's sleeve and said in a very low voice, trembling: "The person who... pushed the second girl."
Xue Qinghe looked around, but it was an unknown noblewoman.
Xue Qinghe also reacted...
Xue Qingyin took her with her and borrowed the help of King Xuan in order to arrest her!
Complex emotions surged in Xue Qinghe's heart, and she quickly turned back to see Xue Qingyin.
Seeing this, Xue Qinghe was stunned.
Just because Xue Qingyin got very close to King Xuan without knowing it, and the two of them were talking intimately...
King Xuan still had that cold expression.
But the way he listened attentively seemed to reveal a touch of tenderness.
Qiu Xin tugged on Xue Qinghe's sleeve and pulled her out of the huge impact.
"Don't say it." Qiu Xin gritted her teeth and said.
"What?" Xue Qinghe looked at her blankly.
"Don't tell who it is, don't let Xue Qingyin identify it..."
Xue Qinghe's lips moved slightly: "But why?"
"Girl, my kind-hearted girl! Now the eldest son has finally begun to fall in love with you again. If you catch him so quickly, will the eldest son care about you again?"
Xue Qinghe opened his mouth: "Yes, but my sister specially did it for me today..."
Qiu Xin said bitterly: "Is it for you? It's for His Highness King Xuan. You are just an excuse for her. She hooked up with King Xuan and wanted to take away your gratitude. Don't be stupid, my second girl.
Do you believe that she doesn’t have any scheming skills? Her methods are much better than yours. She easily saved the eldest son, and also easily won over the powerful people in the capital."
As Qiu Xin talked, she could hardly control the pitch of her voice.
Xue Qinghe pulled her hard.
Qiu Xin put her ear close to her ear and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Think about yourself, Miss Second, you are not young anymore. If you want to get married, if there is no one to support you, you will get married in the future."
People's lives will be even more miserable. Think about it again, your grandfather's family has gone through so many years of poverty, and it's all because of your help when you get married."
Qiu Xin suddenly came up with another plan: "Otherwise, the girl will think of ways to make the noble man like you today."
Xue Qinghe's appearance isn't bad either, but what makes Qiu Xin hate the iron is that she always looks indifferent to worldly affairs and doesn't fight for anything.
I'm worried here and having a psychological tug of war.
Xue Qingyin wasn't doing much better over there.
After all, once things were under the control of the emperor, she couldn't escape with some tricks.
Xue Qingyin is still thinking.
King Xuan said calmly: "Let's go."
"Huh?" Xue Qingyin followed him instinctively.
After taking two steps out, she remembered: "That sister of mine..."
"She stays there and someone will pick her up."
"Then where are we going?" It doesn't look like we are going to a palace banquet, Xue Qingyin thought to herself.
