Yu Qi's questioning made Qingwu slightly startled.
She soon realized that she seemed to have talked too much with the waiter Yu, whom she was not familiar with.
The corners of his lips raised, and his eyes returned to their usual vigilance. He smiled lightly and said, "Servant Yu is right. His Highness has always respected his teachers and treated us senior brothers and sisters in a good manner."
"However, when we were young, His Highness was indeed a bit naughty, and I was also naughty, so the two of us had some quarrels. But as we grew up, His Highness no longer quarreled with me. Occasionally we would quarrel with each other, and the words would always be 'Only a villain'."
It’s hard to raise a woman.”
Yu Qingwu couldn't help but smile as he spoke, and his voice became much lighter.
If someone didn't live with her every day, they wouldn't be able to tell the difference.
Yu Qi didn't know whether to believe it or not, she nodded, a warm voice came from her throat, and she smiled warmly, "Liangdi and His Highness seem to have a very good relationship..."
"It's not bad, they just look like an ordinary couple." Yu Qingwu lied with a smile on his face, his face not red and his heart not beating.
Yu Qi saw that she didn't seem to want to talk anymore, so she didn't continue the topic. She just bowed to her and left.
Seeing Yu Qi's back getting further and further away, and finally disappearing completely at the door, Yu Qingwu's tense body suddenly collapsed, and he sat on the soft couch with a pale face, his eyes filled with uneasiness and fear.
How could she be so unprepared and really tell the truth to Yu Qi?
If Yu Qi told Xie Jinyan, or told Emperor Wei Jing the truth, even if it was proven that she killed Yang Cheng accidentally in counterattack, her life would probably not be saved.
Qingwu huddled in the corner of the bed. He had just taken a bath, and a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
As the cool breeze blew by outside, she couldn't help but shiver again, looking blankly at the empty door.
On the long palace road, Yu Qi stepped out of the East Palace holding a lantern. At this moment, the surroundings were dark and scattered, with a few chamberlains and maids walking by occasionally.
"Waiter Yu, you still can't hold it back? Are you so concerned that you're not afraid of her getting suspicious?" In the darkness, a sarcastic voice came into her ears from around the corner.
Yu Qi was startled, a wave of confusion flashed in his pupils, but he soon calmed down.
He slowly raised his head and saw a man in a dark brocade robe walking from behind the wall. Under the dim light, his sharp and aggressive handsome face had a mocking smile. He looked him up and down and said,
"Servant Yu, if your true identity is known to my father, what will be the consequences?"
Yu Qi did not answer. He raised his eyes, with a glimmer of sword in his soft eyes. He looked at the man coldly and said in a sharp tone, "If Your Majesty were to know, His Majesty the Crown Prince colluded with the servants to frame his eldest brother, gave and received privately, and formed a clique for personal gain."
What will be the consequences?"
His voice was not loud, but it was neither humble nor arrogant. He had no fear of the prince at all, let alone respect.
He was completely different from the gentle, courteous, and well-controlled eunuch who stood beside Emperor Wei Jing during the day.
Acting is very similar to Qingwu.
Xie Jinyan leaned against the wall, looked at Yu Qi, half-smiled, and did not answer.
After a while, he stood up straight again, folded his hands in front of his chest, and said coldly, "Waiter Yu, are you threatening me?"
Hearing this, Yu Qi still had the cold attitude and said expressionlessly, "I don't dare."
This arrogant posture is exactly the same as that of his senior sister. She is clearly in the quagmire, but she raises her chin higher than the prince.
To be honest, Xie Jinyan hated this brother-in-law very much. If he didn't need him, he wouldn't even want to say another word to him.
Especially when he thought about the complaint Yu Qi had made to his father in the past, Xie Jinyan became more and more displeased with Yu Qi.
However, he didn't enter the palace quietly just to quarrel with Yu Qi.
Staring at Yu Qi for a moment, Xie Jinyan suppressed the sarcasm in his eyes, got to the point, and asked, "Servant Yu, are you confident about the case of Yang Cheng in Shu?"
Yu Qi also guessed the purpose of his visit. She glanced deeply in the direction of the East Palace, put away the coldness in her eyes, and replied to Xie Jinyan in a low voice, "Your Highness, don't worry, even if A Wu is really guilty, I will let him go."
She is not guilty."
After hearing Yu Qi's answer, Xie Jinyan had an idea. He nodded slightly and asked, "So, Chamberlain Yu is already sure?"
Yu Qi didn't answer, but his expression clearly showed acquiescence.
Xie Jinyan raised his eyes and looked inside again, and said warningly, "Servant Yu, if you can't do it, I will take her away tonight."
"She said you treat her very well now, and it seems to be true."
Yu Qi said something without any reason, and Xie Jinyan was stunned.
But soon, he came to his senses, raised his eyebrows and said, "You and your senior sister are childhood sweethearts, how can you treat her poorly?"
Childhood sweethearts? How could you treat me poorly?
How could her childhood sweetheart cause her to give up her martial arts skills? How could she let her in in such a humiliating way? How could she bring up that so-called younger sister to cause trouble for her?
A flash of knife light flashed in Yu Qi's eyes, and those peach blossom eyes that were somewhat similar to Yu Qingwu were as sharp as sharp blades. He hummed, "I hope that His Highness can always treat her well. If one day, His Highness dares to make her sad, I won't."
I will let His Highness go."
In the past, he didn't know his sister's situation, so he had no way to protect her. But now that he knows everything, he naturally wants to do his best to protect her.
Perhaps the anger in Yu Qi's eyes was too strong, and Xie Jinyan couldn't help but feel a chill down his back.
But this feeling only lasted for a moment. The next moment, he returned to his usual playfulness. He picked up the lantern and prepared to jump over the wall into the East Palace. He walked to the other side of the wall and returned to Yu Qi.
"I have time to talk to Gu Gu, but I might as well think about how to deal with old Prince Ning. That old Prince Ning is obsessed with your sister..."
"This way, you guys, go in from here."
Before Xie Jinyan finished speaking, a familiar female voice suddenly came from the other side of the wall.
Jade ink?
Yu Qi and Xie Jinyan were both shocked and subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound.
Not far away, at the base of the wall, Yu Mo was seen holding an oil lamp and talking to two chamberlains.
"You two, go in from here in a moment and follow the map I gave you to Nuange."
"Miss Yumo, isn't this... bad? She is the Crown Princess after all."
"What's wrong with the Crown Princess? She will be dead in a while, do you really care about her as a royal?" Yu Mo snorted coldly, with a flash of resentment in his eyes, and urged, "You guys go in quickly,
Otherwise, if someone discovers her soon, she will not be able to get any benefits. I can tell you that Ms. Yu is a great beauty. If you miss this opportunity, it will no longer be possible for people of your status to enjoy such a beauty.
