"What nonsense are you talking about? Can you talk nonsense like this?" Su Jin frowned and scolded.
But now that he was not in the palace, Xiao Qinzi was not afraid. He smiled and stuck out his tongue, looking exhausted.
"Auntie, now that we are out of the palace, we don't have to be bound by the palace rules. It's just a whisper between us. You and I will tell it to each other. I promise not to tell anyone. In fact, even if you don't tell me, the Queen is not here. Things in the palace are not secrets, everyone knows about them.”
Sujin's heart was shocked and she closed her lips without answering.
She knew that sooner or later, she would not be able to keep this matter secret. Soon, the news that Shen Ning became the censor of the Fourth-Rank Imperial Court would be known to the world.
It's just that the Queen Mother is still kept in the dark for the time being.
"Auntie, please show mercy and tell me, okay?" Xiao Qinzi begged.
Su Jin said with a straight face: "You have forgotten the rules in the palace, but I have not forgotten. Is it possible to discuss this kind of thing behind my back? Don't you want your head anymore?"
Xiao Qinzi was still smiling, obviously not afraid of Sujin's threat: "I know that Auntie is a good person and will never leak our conversation, so I will leave my head completely to Auntie. If Auntie Whenever you want to cut it, you can always find someone to do it.”
Su Jin said in a deep voice: "You will know later whether the Queen is in the palace or not. What are you talking about now?"
After a pause, she looked at Xiao Qinzi seriously: "Tell aunt, do you really hope that the emperor will marry the third princess of Northern Qi?"
Xiao Qinzi nodded and said in surprise: "Yes, of course I hope. Auntie, don't you hope that our Western Chu can marry Northern Qi?"
It’s not that I don’t hope, it’s just, it’s just…
Sujin's lips moved, but she couldn't say anything.
"Of course I... also hope." Although she was thinking of Shen Ning in her heart, it would not be true to say that she was firmly opposed to this happy and beautiful event.
But just when she thinks of Shen Ning, she feels sad.
"But since you left the palace, Auntie, you look very worried. Everyone is happy, but Auntie, you don't look very happy. Why is that?"
Although Xiao Qinzi is a guard and young, he is not an idiot.
Sujin's behavior was so abnormal that he could tell it at a glance.
Everyone had a smile on their face, but Aunt Sujin seemed to be worried about something. If he couldn't see it, he would be blind.
Su Jin felt shocked again. She didn't expect that even Xiao Qinzi could see what she was thinking.
"How do you know I'm unhappy? I'm obviously very happy." A smile appeared on Sujin's face.
"Aunt, just pretend in front of me. I'll see how long you can pretend." Xiao Qinzi said with a smile: "But don't worry, aunt, I will never leak aunt's secret. Today I and I My aunt said that if I say a word to outsiders, I will be punished with a big sore on my tongue and be reincarnated as a living bastard in my next life."
Su Jin's heart moved and she looked at Xiao Qinzi.
"When did you know that the Queen was not in the palace?"
Her words were equivalent to admitting Xiao Qinzi's doubts.
Xiao Qinzi immediately became happy.
"Auntie, I know everything about you and I can't tell you anything. I just hope you can tell me something heartfelt. The fact that the Queen is not in the palace has been spread for a long time. As for when it was spread , I really don’t know this…”
