The old lady's harsh eyes fell on the visitor, she was taken aback, and then stood up with the support of the nanny: "Third, Third Highness, why are you here?"
"Old lady, you don't need to be too polite." Xia Houqing walked over quickly, supported her, and gave the old lady back to the imperial concubine chair.
Only then did the thin lips start: "Today is the day of Jingsheng's great joy, so Xiaohuang naturally wants to come."
When something happened to Fan Yi, he guessed early in the morning that the old lady would not spare Li Jingsheng lightly, and Li Jingsheng would be his right-hand man in the future, so he had to come this time anyway. At this time, the combination of kindness and power would make Li Jingsheng more loyal.
As for Lou Lianxin...
His eyes swept lightly, and fell on Lou Lianxin who was still on the ground, and none of the crowd dared to help her.
At this time, he is the only peacemaker.
He walked over and helped the man up with his own hands.
I just don't know if Lou Lian hurt her ankle. When she stood up, she tilted her body and almost fell into Xia Houqing's arms. In panic, she looked like a little white rabbit with big uneasy eyes and tears in her eyes. , "Your Highness, Your Highness..."
Lou Lianxin's pitiful expression was just right, as if a small hand had scratched Xia Houqing's heart.
His eyes darkened by the sunlight.
He let go of his hands calmly and smiled, "Be careful in the future."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and returned to the old lady. In his words, there was not only the majesty of the royal family, but also a bit of respect, which made the old lady panic.
Lou Lianxin stood there in a daze, staring at Xia Houqing's tall figure, looking at the man who appeared suddenly like a god, and only remembered the gentle smile he showed her towards her in his mind.
He bowed his head silently, tightened his dusty fingers, no longer fair and immature, a little annoyed why he was angry just now, he must have left a bad impression on him by grabbing the skirt of the third prince's chest with such a hand just now. impression of it. Her annoyed heart began to ache, why did she meet the third prince only today
If it was a month or two in the morning, she wouldn't have put herself in such a state.
Li Jingsheng didn't know what Lou Lianxin was thinking, he was relieved when Xia Houqing appeared, and a wave of gratitude welled up in his heart.
The third prince actually came here in person for his trivial matter, leaving him unable to repay him.
If it wasn't for his own selfishness, he wouldn't have allowed Fan Yi to be arrested. For the current situation, he can only blame him for being too shallow and unable to control his emotions.
Xia Houqing's arrival turned the situation one-sided. In front of the third prince, the old lady did not dare to make any embarrassing actions. Lou Lianxin was quickly sent to the new house in Pianyuan, where she put on her hijab again and waited for Xia Houqing's death. arrival.
Li Jingsheng personally sent Xia Houqing out of the mansion, and Li Miao, the right minister who got the news, also rushed over, and his surprise was beyond words.
After leaving the mansion, Li Jingsheng bowed his head uneasily and blamed himself.
"Your Highness, this time it's because the subordinates are doing bad things."
"It's none of your business. It's the mantis catching the cicada and the oriole behind. Even if it wasn't Fan Yi, it would be someone else." It's just that I can't find out who is behind it until now.
The man seemed to be able to see every step he was going to take, step by step, and never tire of destroying him.
It made him both angry and powerless.
But the person behind that Yueji couldn't move at all, and he would not be an enemy of unknown forces until it was absolutely necessary.
However, who is going to help Shangguan Yiyun or Xia Hourui
A slender figure broke into his mind, and Xia Houqing's eyes gradually darkened. Could it be that he really lost his sight
After waving goodbye to Li Jingsheng, Xia Houqing walked to a secluded place, stood still, and waved back. After a while, the shadow overlapped with his, and there was another person behind him.
"Recently, is there something different?"
"Your Highness, there is no abnormality in the building. Miss Lou just stayed in the Yifeng Pavilion for the past two days and did not go out. It's just that my subordinate has something else to report." The low and hoarse voice, with no ups and downs, made Xia Houqing feel uneasy. His eyes frowned.
"Oh? What's the matter?"
"In the past few days, the Night King has avoided visitors, which is extremely strange."
"Can you find out the reason?" Because of Ye Ji's words, he didn't pay attention to Ye Wang's mansion these days, but only focused on Lou Qingwu. Now that I think about it, it's really strange.
The day after Ye Wang was injured, Lou Qingwu still went to Ye Wang's mansion, why didn't she go in the next two days
Isn't the Night King in the mansion
"Yewang's mansion is heavily guarded, it is difficult for mosquitoes to fly in, and the subordinates are incompetent!" There was a kneeling sound from behind, and Xia Houqing was silent.
"Forget it, you go down first, and continue to monitor the entire Loufu and Yewangfu."
"yes!"
The figure behind him disappeared without a trace as when he came. Xia Houqing tidied up his brocade robe, and reappeared on the bustling street with cold eyes.
It is better to be in vain than to indulge, it seems that Lou Qingwu is going to try it out.
It's a pity that she entered the palace, and if she reappeared, her identity would have to be changed.
His eyes dimmed, he raised his head and looked in the direction of the palace, then he lowered his eyes and headed towards the palace.
—the royal palace.
Lou Qingwu and Lan Bai are heading towards the main hall of Kunning Palace at the moment, and the one who leads the way is the nurse in charge beside the empress. The red bricks and green tiles, the ingenious palace, rises from the ground, and the atmosphere is magnificent.
When she was about to enter the main hall, Lou Qingwu suddenly glanced at Lan Bai.
Lan Bai nodded calmly, walked quickly a few steps, caught up with the nurse in charge, and secretly stuffed a bank note in her sleeve.
Mammy was taken aback for a moment, her eyes widened in surprise, she turned her head to look around, and then accepted it with confidence.
"What does the girl want to ask?"
"Does Mommy know who is here in Kunning Palace today?"
"Before half a cup of tea, only the second and seventh princes are in the palace, there is no one else."
"That's it, thank you mama."
"No problem, no problem." The nurse in charge waved her hands again and again, and stuffed the banknote into the inner sleeve again.
Lan Bai looked back, Lou Qingwu lowered her eyes, and Lan Bai returned to Lou Qingwu's side.
Didn't hear the expected name, Lou Qingwu's eyes darkened, she covered her face quietly, lowered her eyebrows, and stepped into the main hall of Kunning Palace.
On the main seat in the hall, the empress was sitting there in a red palace attire, the second prince Xiahourui and the seventh prince Xiahou Liuyun were in the starting positions, and the three were chatting happily.
I only heard the high-pitched voice of the chief eunuch in the outer hall: "Miss Lou is here—"
The queen quickly looked sideways, just in time to see Lou Qingwu walking in with drooping eyes, her eyes lit up, and she laughed: "Qingwu is here, come here and let me have a look, I haven't seen you for a few days, and I feel more and more fresh."
Lou Qingwu approached, bent her knees and saluted: "Qingwu has met the queen, the second prince, and the seventh prince." Then she raised her eyes and smiled gently.
The queen looked on, and became more and more happy, and waved her hands again and again to make her come closer. Lou Qingwu moved closer as she said, but was held by the queen, talking about family affairs, asking for warmth, and in the end, the topic changed inadvertently, with a bit of regret: " You have been wronged about the Furong Festival."
