As soon as Qin Zhen followed Lou Yan out of the city gate, Xiao Jue's people sent her news to the East Palace.
During the Lantern Festival, the emperor rewarded the East Palace with a batch of fine fabrics, saying they were for making clothes for the little emperor's grandson.
Xiao Jue looked at the materials and saw that the colors were very beautiful, so he wanted to pick a few and send them to Qin Zhen.
When the people below brought the news up, he was concentrating on carrying the cloth for Qin Zhen.
Hearing that Qin Zhen actually ran away with Lou Yan, Xiao Jue's face instantly darkened. He threw away the cloth in his hand and gritted his teeth and said, "How dare she go out with another man?"
After thinking about it, she couldn't help but excuse Qin Zhen: "It must be Lou Yan who is stalking her, and Zhen Zhen can't shirk it, so it's just a vain act."
Thinking of this, Xiao Jue felt even more disgusted with Lou Yan, and said coldly: "It seems that he didn't take my warning to heart at all. A dog actually dares to covet his master's things!"
Xiao Jue thought of this and walked out.
As soon as I went out, I bumped into Yan Yu holding her child.
Now the child was saved by Murong Yan, but he is still weak and clingy. Yan Yu focuses on the child and rarely bothers Xiao Jue recently.
In the past few days, the child's condition had improved slightly, and Yan Yu started to think about it again.
She came to look for Xiao Jue with her child in her arms. She wanted Xiao Jue to get close to the child so that Xiao Jue could treat her better for the sake of the child.
Xiao Jue frowned when he saw her: "What are you doing here?"
Yan Yu smiled with a smile on her face and said: "The little emperor's grandson has been in good spirits recently, so I just wanted to bring him to show to His Highness. Our little emperor's grandson misses his father."
Xiao Jue glanced at the child, quickly moved away, and said calmly: "Just take good care of him."
Yan Yu nodded quickly: "I will take good care of the little emperor's grandson."
She turned around and saw the piles of fabrics in the room, and her eyes suddenly lit up: "Are these fabrics the ones sent from the palace? They are so beautiful!"
She was born a bandit, grew up in Longhu Mountain, and was a maid. She had never seen such a good thing.
She stretched out her hand to touch it, but she had already thought about it. When she got the materials, she would make two sets of clothes.
But before his hand even touched the fabric, Xiao Jue scolded him: "Don't touch it!"
Yan Yu retracted her hand and looked at Xiao Jue blankly.
"These are for Zhen Zhen, don't touch them dirty." After Xiao Jue finished speaking, he ordered people to take away the cloths, as if he was afraid of being stained by his words.
Yan Yu's expression froze, and finally she forced out a smile and said, "These materials are bright in color, and my lady will look great in them."
Xiao Jue's expression softened a little and said: "I specially picked these for her, so they naturally suit her."
After that, he ignored Yan Yu and walked out.
Maybe he hadn't seen Qin Zhen for a long time, and he had some thoughts in his mind. It was usually inconvenient to stay in the city, but now that Qin Zhen was out of the city, Xiao Jue took this opportunity to go see her.
If my father asked, he could deduce that he went to Lingjin Temple to pray for blessings.
Yan Yu watched Xiao Jue leave quickly, the smile on his face disappeared little by little, leaving only a cold look.
She handed the son in her arms to Murong Yan's hand, no longer as gentle as before.
Murong Yan held the child in her arms, with a flash of disgust in her eyes.
Yan Yu didn't notice, but she was somewhat close to Murong Yan, who saved her son's life.
"Why can some people get someone so easily without doing anything that others can't get even if they work hard and risk everything?"
Yan Yu was full of unwillingness.
She did so much for Xiao Jue, but Xiao Jue never looked at her.
And what about Qin Zhen? She only had plans for Xiao Jue, but Xiao Jue treated her like a treasure.
Murong Yan hugged the child and replied calmly: "Maybe it's fate."
Yan Yu's eyes flashed and she gritted her teeth and said, "Besides her ability to reincarnate, how else can she compare to me?"
Murong Yan didn't say a word, but she said in her heart: The princess is better than you in every aspect.
Yan Yu took a deep breath to suppress the anger rising in her heart, and murmured: "It doesn't matter, your highness will see her true face sooner or later. Sooner or later, your highness will know that I am the only one who is truly good to him, and he will know it sooner or later."
, my son will be his only heir..."
Murong Yan didn't listen carefully to Yan Yu's words at first, but Yan Yu's last sentence made Murong Yan's expression change.
Did she hear wrongly?
What does Yan Yu mean by this? What does it mean to be the only heir?
Murong Yan couldn't help but her heart was beating wildly. She always felt that Yan Yu, this crazy woman, had done something extraordinary.
On the other side, on the mountain road leading to Lingjin Temple.
Qin Zhen stood on the steep steps, looking up at the winding stone steps, with an expression on her face that doubted life.
She had been climbing for half an hour, but the long stone steps still seemed to be endless.
Her legs were a little weak, her whole body had no strength, and she looked up blankly.
Lou Yan was a little ahead of her, looking down at her with a suppressed smile.
After a while, Lou Yan asked: "Are you okay?"
Qin Zhen paused, slowly turned back and looked down, and said leisurely: "Is it still too late for me to go back now?"
Lou Yan suppressed his laughter and persuaded in a low voice: "You have been walking for so long, and we are about to arrive. Wouldn't it be a pity to give up now?"
Qin Zhen pointed at the endless stone steps: "Tell me, are we almost there?"
"We are really almost there," Lou Yan coaxed patiently, "It looks scary, but in fact there are not many steps left."
Qin Zhen didn't believe it.
She stood there, wondering whether she should turn back or try her best to climb up.
"Lingjin Temple is really efficacious. People in the city say so." Lou Yan asked, "Don't you want to go and see it?"
Qin Zhen stood still.
Lou Yan sighed, stepped back two steps and squatted down in front of her.
Qin Zhen's eyes flashed: "What are you doing?"
"Come up, let me carry you up." Lou Yan said softly.
Qin Zhen subconsciously took a step back: "No, no need!"
Lou Yan looked back at her and said, "I won't throw you."
Qin Zhen: "..."
Is this a question of falling or not?
But before she could figure it out, Lou Yan had already reached out to hug her legs and wanted to carry her on his back.
Qin Zhen quickly took a step back to avoid Lou Yan's hand, and said in a deep voice: "Are you crazy? Do you know that you are still injured? Even if you are climbing a mountain, you still have to carry me on your back. You really don't want your life.
Is it done?"
Lou Yan paused and looked up at Qin Zhen: "I can't die."
Qin Zhen gritted her teeth and her tone was a bit colder: "If you want to die somewhere else, don't die in front of me."
Lou Yan saw that she was really angry and softened instantly.
He stood up, thought for a moment, and said, "Is it okay if I pull you?"
After saying this, Qin Zhen reached out and grabbed Qin Zhen's hand, regardless of whether she wanted to or not, and led her forward.
