Chapter 170 What did I do wrong, you say, I will change it!
Qin Yi never returned home after returning the night Yun Ruying died.
Qin Zhen also listened to Qin Yi's words and never left Qin's house. In the middle of the trip, she only had Qin Yi's change of clothes collected and sent to Dali Temple.
She didn't hear anything going on outside the window at home, and even though the world was turned upside down outside, it had nothing to do with her at all.
In the end, I don’t know how the matter was broken up, so it was just left alone. It was only said that the crown princess had some illness, and she died suddenly overnight.
On this day, the entire East Palace was completely deserted, and everyone gathered in the East Palace to express their condolences to the Crown Princess.
When Qin Zhen walked into the mourning hall dressed in plain white, she saw Mrs. Yun lying on the Crown Princess's coffin and crying out of breath. Yun Cheng stood aside with a dark face and cold eyes.
The couple lost their beloved daughter, and even if they were a bit rude, it was understandable.
The prince was dressed in plain clothes, standing next to Yun Cheng, and his face looked very ugly.
Mrs. Yun is simply not giving him face by making such a fuss.
In this situation, Yan Yu, the concubine, is not even qualified to appear here.
Qin Zhen walked through the door, reached out and took the incense offered by the servant, bowed respectfully, and then handed the incense to the servant.
Since she entered the door, Xiao Jue's eyes have been glued to her body.
Qin Zhen felt sick in her heart and wanted to gouge out his two eyeballs.
Qin Zhen walked up to Yun Cheng slowly and said softly: "Master Yun, I'm sorry for the change."
Yun Cheng cupped his hands and said, "Thank you very much, Princess."
Qin Zhen looked at Mrs. Yun who was holding the coffin and crying bitterly, and said, "Mrs. Yun, I'm afraid she will be hurt if she does this."
Yun Cheng rubbed his brows, sighed, and said, "Let her go. If we restrain her and prevent her from crying, she will probably feel even worse if she holds it in."
"What Lord Yun said is true," Qin Zhen said, "then please ask Lord Yun to convey my regards to Madam on my behalf."
Yun Cheng nodded in agreement.
Qin Zhen walked to Xiao Jue again, and Xiao Jue looked at her with lowered eyes.
Qin Zhen pondered for a moment and then said: "Your Highness, please take care of yourself and don't hurt yourself."
Xiao Jue's heart felt warm, and his tone of voice became softer: "Thank you, Princess, I will do it."
Since the incident happened for such a long time, everyone would only blame him, but Qin Zhen was the only one who cared about him.
Qin Zhen didn't want to tangle with him any more, so she nodded and walked out.
Due to the presence of everyone, Xiao Jue did not dare to say anything. He only watched Qin Zhen leave before looking back.
He thought he hid it well, but he didn't expect that Yun Cheng next to him had already seen everything.
Yun Cheng snorted coldly in his heart, the life of his Yun family's daughter is not so contemptible.
He would never let his daughter die in vain.
On the other side, Qin Zhen came out of the mourning hall and walked back. When she was at the door, she bumped into Lou Yan who was entering.
Since that day at Lingjin Mountain, the two have never seen each other again.
When Lou Yan saw her, his eyes lit up and he walked up to her.
"Are you ready to go back?" Lou Yan asked softly.
"Well," Qin Zhen said lazily, "Why don't you go back here? I'm afraid that if I stay here for a long time, the Crown Princess will be angry and cheat. After all, I was the person she hated most during her lifetime."
Lou Yan frowned: "Don't talk nonsense."
Qin Zhen saw that he was serious and suddenly thought of teasing: "Do you believe there are ghosts in this world?"
Lou Yan: "The theory of ghosts is false, so don't believe it."
Qin Zhen slowly shook her head.
Qin Zhen believes that there are ghosts and gods in this world, and she is a living example.
A dead person is still standing here, doesn't that count?
"I believe," Qin Zhen said softly, "I am a ghost."
Her expression was so serious that the hairs all over Lou Yan's body stood up.
Without thinking, he grabbed Qin Zhen's hand and held her hand tightly in his palm.
Qin Zhen frowned: "You hurt me."
Lou Yan finally relaxed a little.
It wasn't until he felt the warmth of this hand and the beating pulse on his wrist that Lou Yan completely relaxed.
"Stop talking about ghosts or not, there are no ghosts." Lou Yan said word for word, "Even if there are ghosts in this world, as long as I am here, they will never hurt you."
Qin Zhen: "..."
Originally I just wanted to tease people, but now it seems like I'm scaring people?
Qin Zhen withdrew her hand and said, "Don't take it to heart because I'm talking nonsense."
Lou Yan frowned and looked at her with disapproval.
Qin Zhen touched her nose, quickly changed the subject, and asked: "Are you here to express condolences to the Crown Princess?"
Lou Yan: "According to etiquette, I will come."
Qin Zhen muttered: "The prince doesn't want to see you. I'm afraid you will be ridiculed by him after you go, so just don't go."
Lou Yan had a bit of a smile in his eyes and said, "No, I have to go."
Qin Zhen was afraid that Lou Yan would be bullied by Xiao Jue, so she thought for a while and said, "Then you go back quickly, I'll wait for you here."
Lou Yan: "Is something wrong?"
Qin Zhen nodded: "We'll talk about it when you come back."
Lou Yan nodded and walked in. It could be seen that the speed was much faster than before.
Qin Zhen was very satisfied: as long as Lou Yan ran fast enough, Xiao Jue couldn't bully him.
Qin Zhen didn't wait long before Lou Yan walked out quickly.
As soon as he approached, Qin Zhen frowned.
Qin Zhen pointed to the smear of incense ash on Lou Yan's shoulder and asked, "What's going on?"
Lou Yan patted his shoulder nonchalantly and said, "You're right, the prince doesn't want to see me, and I'll be annoyed if I go."
Qin Zhen narrowed her eyes: "Xiao Jue hit you with the incense burner?"
Lou Yan did not answer, only asked: "You just said something happened, what was it?"
Qin Zhen rolled her eyes, feeling extremely unhappy, turned around and walked out: "It's okay."
Lou Yan: "..."
Why are you so angry again?
Lou Yan thought about it for a while, but he really couldn't figure out where he offended anyone, so he had to ask tentatively: "Did I come out too slowly and make you wait for a long time? I'm sorry, I'll be faster next time."
Qin Zhen rolled her eyes again: "It has nothing to do with this."
Lou Yan didn't understand. In desperation, he had no choice but to say: "What did I do wrong to make you angry? Can you just tell me directly? I will change it. If you don't say anything like this, I really don't know what I am doing."
What's wrong?"
He seemed to be really at his wits end, and there was a bit of grievance in his tone.
Qin Zhen paused and looked sideways at him.
Lou Yan was staring at her, looking a little pitiful.
"...It's nothing, it's my problem." Qin Zhen said awkwardly, "It has nothing to do with you."
Lou Yan immediately said: "Then why are you unhappy? Can you tell me? No matter what, I can help you share it."
Qin Zhenxin said, if you can be smarter and avoid being bullied by that little beast Xiao Jue a few times, then you will be sharing the burden for me, and I will be less angry.
