Xiao Changqing took a deep breath. This couple really were... birds of a feather!
Employers never have a begging attitude, and never give employees the opportunity to refuse.
Unfortunately, he really couldn't shirk the responsibility of this matter. Xiao Huayong was most likely faking illness. There was no one in the world who was more adept at pretending to be sick than Xiao Huayong!
I don't know what conspiracy this couple is planning. In any case, Xiao Huayong is ill and cannot work, and Xiao Changyan is a criminal. He is the one with the most noble status right now. If he doesn't stand up at this time, he is not worthy of the honor of being a prince!
"Ka-ka-ka..." Xiao Huayong coughed violently and spoke with difficulty, "Fifth Brother..."
His eyebrows jumped, and Xiao Changqing, who had been reluctant to express his opinion, had to step forward: "Your Highness, I am here."
"Thank you for taking care of the disaster relief... Kakakaka, thank you for taking care of it!"
"I obey your orders." The emperor is far away and the crown prince is the emperor now. They are all subjects and can only obey your orders.
Xiao Changyan's eyes swept back and forth between Shen Xihe and Xiao Changqing, and a hint of gloom flashed across his brows.
"Your Highness should not be disturbed. Since you have all visited, there are still many things that need to be arranged in the city. You should leave." Shen Xihe ordered them to leave with a cold face.
Xiao Changyan and Xiao Changqing had no choice but to leave together. They walked out of the door, left the yard, and stepped into the windy and rainy corridor leading to the main door. Xiao Changyan couldn't help but ask, "Fifth brother, it's been three years since Fifth Sister-in-law passed away. Do you have any plans?"
Xiao Changqing stopped and turned to look at Xiao Changyan calmly. He didn't understand why Xiao Changyan suddenly cared about his personal affairs. Even though he was sensitive, he didn't guess at first that Xiao Changyan suspected that he had something ambiguous with Shen Xihe.
Instead, he was wondering whether Xiao Changyan wanted to join forces with him and planned to give him a beautiful woman or arrange a marriage for him.
His brows turned cold, "Eighth brother, Ninth brother has been granted marriage, and will be married next year. You still don't have a marriage, how can I let you worry about it?"
The only thing he did was to say directly that you haven't even married yourself, yet you're meddling in your brother's affairs.
The more Xiao Changyan heard this, the more he felt that Xiao Changqing was trying to escape.
Yes, he began to suspect that Shen Xihe and Xiao Changqing had a close relationship. It wasn't necessarily that they were having an affair, but perhaps they had really joined forces.
The staff had speculated this before. This time, Shen Xihe took Xiao Huayong out, and Xiao Huayong caught such a serious cold. He didn't care about the hot potato of disaster relief and wanted to take it back, but Shen Xihe pushed it to Xiao Changqing.
He couldn't help but feel that Shen Xihe might have deliberately taken Xiao Huayong out and caught a cold, so that she and Xiao Changqing could get the power of disaster relief. Shen Xihe must have a way to get food, and she was unwilling to give the credit to Xiao Huayong, so she gave it to Xiao Changqing.
If the two of them did not have a close relationship, why would Shen Xihe have to go to so much trouble to plan for Xiao Changqing
It can only be said that this was a beautiful misunderstanding, and Xiao Changyan could not be blamed for thinking wrongly, because even if he racked his brains, he could not imagine that the reason why Shen Xihe pushed the blame on Xiao Changqing was because Xiao Changqing knew the true identity of her and Xiao Huayong. Xiao Changqing had no intention of turning against the couple, so he would go along with them. Letting Xiao Changqing intervene in this matter was basically just for the sake of reputation.
