364. Chapter 364 The Prince's Brilliant Tenderness
The most important thing is the news he just received - it snowed heavily last night, and Xia Qingtian sent someone to invite the princess. The princess hurried back to Xia Mansion despite the heavy snow, and came back an hour later.
This time happened to be the time when Concubine Xiu in the palace was poisoned.
The timing is so coincidental that it’s hard to guarantee that Xia Ziluo wasn’t involved.
"Waiting for me?" Although he was suspicious, Murong Xitian took the towel with a smile and wiped his face and hands.
"Well, you didn't come home all night last night. I was worried that you stayed up late again." Xia Ziluo looked at him worriedly.
"Fortunately, I was just busy for a while." Murong Xitian looked at her with a smile, "What about you, why did you get up so early? The temperature dropped sharply, so you should stay in the room to avoid catching a cold."
"How can I be so squeamish, but you..." Thinking of what he saw and heard in Xia Mansion last night, Xia Ziluo's black and white eyes shone with deep worry.
Judging from his expression as usual, he probably doesn't know that Xi Muyun failed to assassinate Xia Qingtian and was caught, right?
How could she ask?
If I directly ask about the assassin and Xi Muyun, will it arouse Murong Xitian's suspicion?
But without asking, she was worried that Murong Xitian still didn't know about Xi Muyun's failed assassination, let alone that Xia Qingtian planned to use Xi Muyun to lure Murong Xitian into taking the bait.
Xia Ziluo hesitated again and again, finally worried that he might have the upper hand, and asked tentatively: "Although you have been busy recently, you rarely don't come back at night. Is there something going on in the court, or is there something unsatisfactory?"
Why did she suddenly care about him?
Moreover, he asked directly about what happened last night. He also asked if anything happened in the court?
Did she really not know what happened last night, or was she pretending not to know to get rid of the relationship?
Murong Xitian pretended that nothing happened and smiled brightly: "I'm just a little busy, nothing happened. However, the heavy snow and road closures are quite troublesome. I think I will have to spend a lot of time in the future.
busy."
Just because of heavy snow and road closures?
The assassination attempt on Xia Qingtian failed, but what about the assassin being caught?
But looking at his expression, it doesn't look like something happened. Could it be that Xi Muyun wasn't the one who was arrested?
"That's right, but natural disasters can't help it." Xia Ziluo scratched his head, unable to think of how to ask without being suspected.
Just as she was in a hurry, Murong Xitian suddenly knocked lightly on her forehead, and a smile as bright as the rising sun bloomed on her handsome face: "What's wrong? You look like you have something on your mind?"
"No, I'm just a little dizzy because I got up early." Xia Ziluo was shocked by his sudden intimate gesture.
Always feel like he's acting a little weird today?
All kinds of tenderness, and a very bright smile, like a big iceberg suddenly turned into a warm man?
Not understanding, Xia Ziluo shrugged, turned around to get the teapot, poured a cup of tea and handed it to Murong Xitian: "The children have been talking about you recently. Go and accompany them when you have time. By the way, it seems to be feeling better.
I haven’t seen Xi Muyun for a while, has he resigned as housekeeper?”
"No. It's just that he asked for leave. He had something to do at home and asked him to go back, but he should be back in the past two days. Why do you suddenly ask about him?" Murong Xitian took it and lowered his head to take a sip of tea.
As soon as Xi Muyun came back last night, Xia Ziluo suddenly asked about Xi Muyun. Did she know the purpose of Xi Muyun's recent departure? The most important thing was the news he just received - it snowed last night, and Xia Qingtian sent someone to invite the princess. The princess agreed.
He hurried back to Xia Mansion despite the heavy snow, and came back an hour later.
