Xiao Jue didn't think Qin Zhen was very important to him from the beginning.
At first, Qin Zhen was just the daughter of a bandit, and she was just an exploitable object for him. But later, the female bandit turned into the princess of Anshun, and her use value became even higher, so he paid more attention to her.
point.
But as time went by, this intention of taking advantage gradually changed.
Her careful care on Longhu Mountain, the sea of lanterns at the birthday banquet, her special concern when his mother was ill, her desperate efforts to stand up and speak for him when he was isolated and helpless in Qiu Lie... She was always thinking of him everywhere,
Not because he is the prince, just because he is Xiao Jue.
Since childhood, Xiao Jue has never felt sincerity.
His queen mother didn't like him, his father treated him as a confidant and guarded against him, and the people around him only valued his status as the prince. Even the women in the house were vying for their own needs... They had never had any interest in him.
sincere.
Qin Zhen is different, Qin Zhen is sincere.
Xiao Jue regretted more than once that she had not finalized her marriage to Qin Zhen when she was in Longhu Mountain.
If I had gotten married to Qin Zhen when we were in Longhu Mountain...would everything have been different?
He would not become so passive. Even wanting to meet her would become a luxury.
Xiao Jue and Murong Yan hurried to Hulong Mansion, but did not see Qin Zhen.
Qin Yi invited him into the main hall and served him tea politely. His words were flawless: "Zhen Zhen has a cold and is contagious. I'm afraid it won't be easy for her to see His Highness the Crown Prince."
Xiao Jue refused to give up: "Can't I just take a look at her from a distance?"
Qin Yi said: "His Royal Highness, the body of a rich man, should not take risks. What's more, I heard that the little emperor's grandson is weak. If His Highness, the prince, catches the cold due to Zhen Zhen and passes on the illness to the little emperor's grandson, then I will protect the Dragon Mansion.
It’s really hard to escape the blame for death.”
Xiao Jue: "..."
Thinking of the extremely fragile baby at home, Xiao Jue finally gave up the idea of visiting Qin Zhen.
Qin Yi comforted her softly: "Doctor Murong has superb medical skills. With her here, Zhenzhen will be safe and sound. Your Highness, the Crown Prince, need not worry."
Xiao Jue nodded, lowered his head to drink tea, his heart was focused on Qin Zhen, and he drank the tea a little carelessly.
Qin Yi was beside him, his face was calm, but his heart was in turmoil.
Judging from the prince's behavior today, I'm afraid he has serious intentions for Qin Zhen.
This is obviously not a good thing.
Qin Yi couldn't help but frown, feeling a little worried in his heart. He didn't know why his sister had to provoke these royal descendants.
It didn't matter that she had a close relationship with the third prince. Now the fourth prince Xiao Yao proposed to marry him, and later the prince Xiao Jue showed his attentiveness...
She single-handedly dealt with the emperor's three sons... This was almost like entering the dragon's pond and the tiger's den.
The two of them sat here dryly. After half an hour, Murong Yan came out of the house carrying the medicine box.
Xiao Jue stood up immediately and asked: "How?"
"The wind and cold are a bit serious." Murong Yan said.
Xiao Jue suddenly became anxious: "Then please save her quickly!"
"Your Highness, please calm down." Murong Yan glanced at Xiao Jue and said, "I have checked the princess's pulse and prescribed medicine. As long as she takes the medicine on time and takes good care of herself, there is no danger to her life.
"
Xiao Jue breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he looked at Qin Yi with a somewhat dissatisfied expression: "How do the people in her room take care of her? If they can't take care of her well, they will all be taken out and sold, and a group of people who can take care of her will be replaced."
This is pure anger.
Qin Yi's mouth twitched, and he looked a little embarrassed: "This... the people in Hulong Mansion were all personally selected and sent by His Majesty. We are afraid that it will be difficult for us to sell them."
When Xiao Jue heard this, his brows furrowed even more tightly, but he was speechless.
Qin Yi looked at his expression and said secretly in his heart: The prince is not as good as the third prince in this regard. The third prince was not worried and directly arranged for Manman to take care of Qin Zhen. The prince was worried when he heard that those people were
After that, the emperor's people became silent and did not take any action.
Xiao Jue took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Anyway, let them take good care of her."
Qin Yi: "Yes, I will pay attention."
Xiao Jue added: "I will send someone to bring some supplements to replenish the body. You have someone make them for her and replenish her body."
Qin Yi: "...Yes."
Xiao Jue whispered a few more words before reluctantly leaving.
As soon as he walked out of the gate, he bumped into Xiao Yao holding a wooden box.
The two brothers looked at each other, and Xiao Jue's anger was instantly ignited.
Xiao Jue stepped forward, grabbed Xiao Yao's collar, and said angrily: "You still dare to come to see her?"
Xiao Yao frowned and said: "I just heard that she was sick and came to see..."
"She has me, she doesn't need you to care about her." Xiao Jue pushed him hard and warned in a deep voice, "Put away those little thoughts of yours and don't have any thoughts about her that you shouldn't have. I'm here.
, even if my mother helps you, I will never let you get what you want."
Xiao Yao stretched out his hand and tugged on his collar, suppressing the anger in his heart and said, "I'm just here to visit the patient."
Xiao Jue: "I said, no need."
"It's not up to you whether you need it or not." After Xiao Yao finished speaking, he raised his feet to leave.
Xiao Jue kicked him over, knocking Xiao Yao to the ground. The wooden box in Xiao Yao's arms fell to the ground, and the ginseng and other supplements contained in it were scattered on the ground.
Xiao Jue walked over, stepped on the ginseng, looked at Xiao Yao condescendingly, and said word by word: "I told you, put away your little thoughts about her, I will never let you succeed."
Xiao Yao stared at Xiao Jue's feet for a long time, then slowly raised his head to look at his elder brother.
There was no brotherly love in those eyes, only disgust and hatred that made people shudder.
Xiao Yao closed his eyes and said slowly: "I understand."
He slowly got up, patted the dust on his body, turned to look at Qin Yi who was standing at the gate, and said, "Tell her that I have been here and wish her a speedy recovery."
After saying this, Xiao Yao turned around and walked away without even looking at the precious supplements scattered on the ground.
Xiao Jue turned to look at Qin Yi and ordered in a cold voice: "There is no need to tell Zhen Zhen about Xiao Yao's visit today. She is still sick and should take a good rest. Don't bother her with such things."
Qin Yi: "...Yes."
Xiao Jue then left with satisfaction.
Qin Yi waited for the two of them to leave, turned around, closed the door, and went straight to Qin Zhen's room.
He pushed the door open, and as soon as one foot crossed the threshold, he called out: "Let me tell you, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Highness the Fourth Royal Highness just had a fight at the door of our house..."
He agreed not to tell Qin Zhen, but turned around and described everything that happened to Qin Zhen vividly, without missing any details.
