The name Chu Qiao was unfamiliar to An Ge. He was only familiar with "Li Chunxiang", and now another name suddenly appeared, which really caught him off guard.
"I thought... what you told me before was a joke..." An Ge coughed softly, but did not dare to exert force. His lower abdomen still hurt.
"No, Chu Qiao didn't dare to joke with the prince. Please forgive Chu Qiao for being reckless!" Chu Qiao didn't dare to look directly into An Ge's eyes. She not only hid him, but also hid another person who cared about her, Chong Xi.
ink.
"Chu Qiao?" An Ge frowned and repeated the name.
"The Thirteenth Prince!"
Chu Qiao bit her lip, bent over and knelt in front of the bed, and lowered her eyes.
"Chu Qiao didn't mean to hide it from the Thirteenth Prince, but... Chu Qiao was very embarrassed around her and didn't dare to say it..."
Seeing Chu Qiao suddenly kneel down, An Ge was very anxious. He wanted to reach out to help Chu Qiao, but he didn't have any strength and could only tremble in his voice.
"Get up, get up and talk..."
Regardless of Chu Qiao's identity or why he hid it, An Ge couldn't bear to blame Chu Qiao. He didn't care about political affairs or right and wrong. All he wanted was a woman who could accompany him throughout his life. During these days, he understood her
There are already too many, she must have something to hide.
But vaguely, An Ge felt that the matter was not that simple. A woman who entered the palace with another identity, how could she dare to do so unless she had to? But what was the secret in her heart? An Ge was a little worried.
Chu Qiao stood up and stood beside An Ge's bed. Her usual relaxed expression was gone. She knew that she was taking a risk by telling her real name. If the Thirteenth Prince really didn't care about this kind of affection...
…Taking care of the country, the country, and the country, and caring about his imperial brother…
But the words have been said, and Chu Qiao has no way out. Even if An Ge really wants to kill her, she will never complain, because her life is no longer her own.
"I don't want to hide anything from the prince anymore. Chu Qiao is an important criminal in the imperial court and Yun Chongjin's niece..."
The three words Yun Chongjin made An Ge's eyes widen. If Chu Qiao's name was unfamiliar, how could he not know Yun Chongjin's name? Yun Chongjin was the main criminal who wanted to kill his father.
Chu Qiao saw An Ge's expression changed drastically and knew that he had identified her and the seriousness of the situation. If An Ge shouted now, she would have no way out.
"From Qingzhou to the capital, it's not too difficult or dangerous. Chu Qiao only has one idea, which is to enter the palace to investigate the truth. I don't believe that my uncle will be treacherous and kill the king for personal reasons. He is a good person.
, a good man who works seriously, only wants to save lives and heal the wounded, and is loyal to the imperial court, a doctor with conscience, so Chu Qiao does not believe this is the truth... Even if his uncle really has bad thoughts, he will not personally ruin his wise life.
.”
Chu Qiao's eyes were slightly red. These words had been hidden in her heart. Now she said them, piercing her heart every sentence. It would be great if her uncle was still alive, but it's a pity that she is just a weak woman now.
, while insisting on his uncle's innocence, Chu Qiao took a deep breath and continued: "Your Majesty, if Chu Qiao unfortunately dies, this matter will fall into obscurity and no one will care about it. But as long as Chu Qiao is still breathing, we must understand
The truth of the matter is, if the result of the investigation is that the uncle is greedy and deserves the punishment, Chu Qiao is willing to accept the punishment, but if the uncle is innocent, Chu Qiao will still have to clear his uncle's name even if his head is lost."
Such a tenacious woman, even if she faced the crime of beheading, she still had to carry on with this matter. An Ge sighed softly.
"Is this why you won't marry me?"
Is this the main reason? Chu Qiao is not sure, but at least her identity makes her afraid to open her heart to anything.
"Chu Qiao just wants to investigate the truth and doesn't want to implicate anyone." Chu Qiao said in a low voice.
"But...have you ever thought...as a royal doctor, at best, knowing the final truth, and redressing your uncle's injustice...is not easy..."
An Ge spoke slowly and laboriously, but it was the truth. Even if the truth came out, what would happen? Can she fight with the power behind the truth?
"Chu Qiao just wants to..."
Before Chu Qiao could say the following words, An Ge stretched out his hand and gently shook his fingers.
"Death is not difficult, the difficult thing is how to not die and still achieve your goal, Chunxiang... No, I should call you Chu Qiao, you need the identity of the Thirteenth Princess..."
The identity of the Thirteenth Princess?
Chu Qiao took a step back and turned a little pale. Does she need this identity?
"If things don't... go as smoothly as you imagined... if someone knows your identity, the suspicious identity of the Thirteenth Princess will protect you..."
An Ge smiled calmly and spoke very firmly. He had long since ignored the identity of this prince. He would not care whether he stayed in the palace or was expelled. He looked at the woman in front of him with weak eyes.
, he was fully prepared to accept any of her identities, including her guilt-ridden body.
"I can't implicate the prince." Chu Qiao shook her head. She understood what An Ge meant. If things went smoothly, she could help her uncle clear his name. If it was complicated and the result was unsatisfactory, her identity would be exposed.
Death is inevitable, but if she is the Thirteenth Princess...
The Emperor likes the Thirteenth Prince, and the Empress Dowager also loves An Ge very much. She cannot kill An Ge's wife because the matter is exposed, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the life penalty is difficult to forgive. An Ge will also be implicated and lose the title of Prince.
, was expelled from the capital, and although he might still have enough food and clothing, it would be impossible to be as comfortable as before.
"I am willing to use my status as a prince in exchange for your life, so that whatever you want to do, do it boldly!"
An Ge's eyes were fixed on Chu Qiao. Such a woman was worth his efforts, not to mention that the palace that everyone envied had already become a place of sadness for him.
"But if my uncle really killed your biological father..." Chu Qiao hesitated. Has An Ge considered this fact? She and he may be enemies.
An Ge's eyes dimmed instantly.
"No matter what the outcome is, I have made up my mind to marry you, no matter who you are."
With such a sentence, Chu Qiao could say nothing more, and she had no reason not to agree. But in her heart, while she was deeply moved, she was also extremely guilty, hoping that things would not develop to the point where An Ge was in despair.
Chu Qiao lowered her eyes. There was a gentle knock on the door, and then the voice of Wang Gonggong came.
"Thirteenth Prince, everything is ready."
