The door of the palace was banged. The person who opened the door had an impatient face and was about to curse, but when he saw the person at the door, his expression suddenly changed.
"Girl Manman, why are you here? Where is the princess?"
Manman ignored this man and rushed to the palace with his skirt in hand, saying anxiously: "Where is the prince? Where is the prince?"
The man did not dare to neglect and said quickly: "Your Majesty is in the study."
Manman ran all the way to Lou Yan's study. There was someone guarding the door, but it was obvious that Manman was someone close to the princess, so he didn't stop him.
When Manman opened the door and walked in, Lou Yan was talking to someone.
When the man saw a maid suddenly rushing in, his face instantly darkened: "Where did you come from, a girl who doesn't understand the rules? Why don't you get out of here?"
Manman was startled and looked at Lou Yan with a pale face.
Lou Yan knew something was wrong as soon as he saw Manman's expression. He stood up with a shudder, ignored the man, and walked directly to Manman: "What's wrong? What happened?"
Manman leaned over and lowered his voice and said, "I just met the prince at the palace gate. The prince took the princess away without any reason. My lord, I see that the prince is not a good person. I am afraid that something will happen."
Lou Yan's face suddenly turned ugly and he said sternly: "How dare he!"
After that, he lifted his feet and walked out.
The person who had been talking to Lou Yan before frowned and shouted: "Your Majesty, the matter is not over yet, you..."
"You go first and we'll talk about it later." Lou Yan said solemnly.
The man frowned: "But..."
"It's nothing," Lou Yan looked back at him, his eyes extremely cold, "If you keep talking nonsense and delaying my affairs, there's no need to talk about anything, and you don't need to appear in front of me."
The man's expression froze and he closed his mouth.
Lou Yan raised his feet and left.
He rushed to the stable in the backyard, picked up a fast horse, and went straight to the East Palace.
After he left, Linglong came out to comfort the man.
The man looked very unhappy and said with a cold face: "What happened that is so important that Your Majesty left me to deal with it personally? What could be more important than what we are discussing?"
Linglong glanced at Manman standing beside her and knew that the matter was related to the princess.
With a smile on her face, she comforted the man softly and said: "This matter is indeed very important and must be handled by the prince himself. Don't be angry, sir. It's not that the prince doesn't value you."
Linglong said many good words to comfort the person, and then sent the person away.
She looked back at Manman and asked in a deep voice: "What's going on?"
After Manman explained the matter, Linglong's expression changed instantly and she said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid something is going to happen."
Their prince can endure what ordinary people cannot endure, and he has a calm temperament that puts important things first.
However, once the matter involves the princess, his patience will be destroyed to the last bit. At that time, no matter what big or small things you do, he will only have the princess in his eyes and heart.
Linglong was anxiously running around in the house but didn't know what to do.
——
East Palace.
Xiao Jue took Qin Zhen to the study room and sat her down on a chair. Qin Zhen's wrist had already been pinched with a circle of bruises.
Xiao Jue saw her rubbing her wrist, with a flash of distress in his eyes, and his tone became much softer: "Zhen Zhen, I'm sorry, I don't want to do this to you, but you always reject me, which makes me very angry."
He reached out to touch Qin Zhen's wrist: "Does it hurt? I'll give it to you..."
"Let go!" Qin Zhen slapped Xiao Jue's hand away with a cold face, extremely disgusted with Xiao Jue's touch.
Xiao Jue took a deep breath, suppressed the violence in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Zhen Zhen, don't make me angry."
Qin Zhen pursed her lips and looked at Xiao Jue coldly.
Xiao Jue pulled up a chair and sat down, face to face with Qin Zhen.
"Zhen Zhen, let's have a good talk, okay?"
Qin Zhen didn't say anything, and Xiao Jue didn't care, just talking to himself.
"We used to be very good, why did it become like this?"
"I know that you are still angry about what happened in the pavilion that day, angry that I married another woman in the East Palace, and angry that I had a child with another woman. But Zhen Zhen, I have already said that you are the only one in my heart.
One, I only like you. No matter how many women I have, no matter how many children I have, you are always the most important person. The crown princess is yours, the future queen's position is yours, and only your children
Only then can you inherit everything from me. Isn’t it enough with all this?"
Qin Zhen frowned and said nothing. Listening to Xiao Jue's words, she felt sick inside.
Which eye was she blind in her previous life that she could be so devoted to such a thing?
Xiao Jue sighed and said to Qin Zhen: "Zhen Zhen, I am the prince."
Qin Zhen finally raised her head and asked coldly: "What about the prince?"
"If I were an ordinary man, I might still be able to protect you and be the only one in my life. But I am the prince, and in the future... with my status, how can I only have you for the rest of my life?" Xiao Jue looked at him.
Qin Zhen said softly, "You know clearly that this is impossible."
Yes, this is impossible.
Since ancient times, no emperor has only one person in his life.
The women in the harem not only have to support the royal family, they also shoulder the important task of balancing the power of the previous dynasty. The favor they receive for each concubine is carefully calculated.
Qin Zhen only felt disgusted in her heart.
She raised her head to look at Xiao Jue and said in a deep voice: "You will be your prince and play with your seventy-two concubines in the Three Palaces and Sixth Courtyard. As long as you don't pester me."
Xiao Jue was a little annoyed: "Why don't you understand?"
"I've said many times that those women are not comparable to you, so what do you still care about?"
Qin Zhen said coldly: "Do you mind if you are dirty?"
One sentence successfully ignited Xiao Jue's suppressed anger for many days.
"Am I dirty?" Xiao Jue suddenly stood up and looked at Qin Zhen condescendingly, "How dare you call me dirty?"
Qin Zhen: "Isn't it dirty?"
Xiao Jue was so angry that he pulled Qin Zhen up from the chair and pressed him up. He gritted his teeth and said, "Then I will kill you and let you smell like me. See if you don't mind it."
dirty!"
Qin Zhen's heart trembled: "You dare?"
"See if I dare!" Xiao Jue roared angrily, pulling Qin Zhen towards the back room.
There is a bed in the back room. Xiao Jue will rest here when he is tired from handling official duties. It is convenient for him to do this at this time.
Qin Zhen was dragged in by him, and she began to feel scared. She said sternly: "Xiao Jue, if you dare to do this to me, my father and brother will not let you go, and neither will your Majesty!"
Xiao Jue said coldly: "When you become mine, your father and brother will definitely beg me to marry you. After all, no one will want you except me. As for my father... As long as we get married, he will
