Xiao Chengye looked at Qin Zhen, looked him up and down, and said, "You've lost weight. It's been hard these days, right?"
Qin Zhen smiled: "When Father asks you this, I don't have to work hard at all."
Xiao Chengye was amused again.
He likes to get along with Qin Zhen. When he gets along with this girl, he can rarely relax and feel happy.
Xiao Chengye leaned back in his chair relaxedly and asked her: "You came to the palace specifically today. Do you have anything to ask me?"
Qin Zhen pretended to be surprised and opened her mouth: "Your Majesty, can you even guess this?"
Xiao Chengye had a smile in his eyes: "If you want to ask anything, just ask."
Qin Zhen hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Yesterday, His Highness the Third Highness sent a congratulatory gift. I opened the box and took a look. It was so golden that it almost blinded me."
Xiao Chengye was stunned for a moment, and then almost laughed out loud.
Qin Zhen glanced at Xiao Chengye's eyes and asked tentatively: "I actually want to ask, did the Third Highness go for a robbery? Otherwise, why would there be so much money?"
Xiao Chengye was completely amused. After laughing for a while, he said, "If he knew you said this, his face would definitely look very good."
Qin Zhen: "..."
Xiao Chengye felt a little emotional when he thought of the third child's expressionless face.
He looked at Qin Zhen and couldn't help but think of the imperial edict he gave to the third child... Of course he knew why the third child gave such a heavy gift. He regarded Qin Yi as his future uncle, so naturally he couldn't
Dare to be lazy.
Just seeing Qin Zhen's still clueless look, Xiao Chengye couldn't help but worry about his third child.
The imperial edict has been in hand for so long and there has been no progress, which shows that the third child is emotionally stupid.
Xiao Chengye sighed, feeling a little melancholy for a moment.
Qin Zhen was stunned and asked cautiously: "Father, why are you sighing? Could it be that...those were really stolen by His Highness the Third?"
Xiao Chengye smiled and then said: "You are really right, he really snatched those things back."
Everyone knew that the third prince came from a poor family and was a poor prince. He took out so many things at once, no wonder Qin Zhen came to ask eagerly.
"However, those are the trophies he snatched back from southern Xinjiang." Xiao Chengye said with a bit of pride in his eyes, "Part of it was sent to me, and part of it was sent to your house."
Qin Zhen's eyes flashed, and her tone became a little higher unconsciously: "Spoils of war? Did the Third Highness win the battle?"
Xiao Chengye didn't think too much, nodded, and said with a smile: "Yes, we won a big victory. In half a year, we recaptured ten cities one after another, and chased the enemy away. These gold, silver, and jades were all taken from the enemy.
That was scraped."
Qin Zhen clutched the rosary beads in her hand tightly, but exaggeratedly said: "Wow, His Highness the Third Highness is so powerful. It turns out that a tiger has no dog son. Your Majesty is so powerful, and so is His Highness the Third Highness."
Xiao Chengye was pleased again and narrowed his eyes with a smile.
Qin Zhen changed the subject and asked unintentionally: "Is the Third Highness injured?"
The smile on Xiao Chengye's face paused, and then he sighed and said: "It is true that he was injured, I heard it is not serious... Now in the army, Yuan Chu is the one in charge."
As soon as Xiao Chengye finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed and he reacted.
The fact that the coach was injured was a secret. No one knew about it except him. Today, Qin Zhen was able to trick him out of it.
Xiao Chengye stared at Qin Zhen, his eyes gradually becoming colder.
Qin Zhen's scalp was numb, she clenched the handheld device in her hand tightly, her expression remained one of surprise and worry, and she said, "Are you injured? Oh my god, is it serious?"
Xiao Chengye looked at Qin Zhen intently for a while, and then said, "It's not serious."
Qin Zhen breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That's good, that's good. Seeing that he has looted so many things, I think he is very powerful. He will not be seriously injured."
Xiao Chengye said: "This matter is confidential, don't tell anyone."
Qin Zhen nodded quickly: "I understand."
Qin Zhen chatted with Xiao Chengye for a while, then turned and walked out.
As soon as she walked out of the gate of Qinzheng Hall, Qin Zhen's face turned pale.
The purpose of her visit this time was to find out about Lou Yan.
Affairs in the military are top secret, and except for battle reports, no inside information will be disclosed to outsiders.
She had such a dream last night and felt uneasy all the time, so she thought of asking Xiao Chengye to find out.
Unexpectedly, she actually found out something.
Her dream came true, and Lou Yan was really hurt.
Judging from Xiao Chengye's reaction, Lou Yan's injury was quite serious.
Qin Zhen pursed her lips, and suddenly changed her pace when she was about to leave the palace, and walked towards the East Palace.
Qin Zhen entered the East Palace in such a swaggering manner. Not to mention anything else, she frightened the prince Xiao Jue.
He pulled Qin Zhen into the study door, slammed the door, and said anxiously: "Why are you here? Did something happen? If something happens, you can think of other ways to send me a message. You
What should I do if I come to the door so rashly and get caught and brought to the scene in front of my father?"
Inside and outside the words, they are all blaming.
Although Qin Zhen had long known what a piece of shit he was, she still felt chilled at this moment.
How blind was she in her last life to entrust her life and fortune to Xiao Jue?
Qin Zhen took a deep breath, trying to suppress the anger in her heart, but she still couldn't control the sarcasm leaking out of her tone: "Why are you panicking, Your Highness? Didn't you say that you will never let me down if you treat me well? Why?
Seeing me is like seeing the plague and you can't avoid it?"
Xiao Jue was stunned for a moment.
He looked at Qin Zhen in shock, as if he had met this person for the first time today.
Qin Zhen was always talkative, gentle and considerate in front of him. The Qin Zhen he knew would never say such aggressive words to him.
"What's wrong with you?" Xiao Jue couldn't understand, so he could only ask this question.
Qin Zhen closed her eyes, then lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry, I was just...a little sad."
When she raised her head again, the ends of her eyes were already a little red, and she said in an aggrieved tone: "I came here openly. If Your Majesty asks, I will say that I came to visit Yan Yu and the child. Don't worry, I won't
I have done things that are not good for you. I came here today just... simply to see you."
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Jue suddenly felt that his heart was being squeezed hard.
He quickly said: "Zhen Zhen, I'm sorry, I just said the wrong thing because I was too anxious. I didn't mean it. I'm very happy that you came to see me, really."
Qin Zhen pursed her lips and finally said: "His Royal Highness is good at lying."
After that, he turned around and left, not caring that the prince was chasing after him.
Xiao Jue chased for a few steps and then stopped, frowning slightly. He, the dignified prince, was running after someone, which was too cheap.
But when I thought of Qin Zhen's look that seemed angry and angry just now, my heart felt itchy again, and I couldn't help but want to chase after him.
