Qin Xiao's identity has not been made public, and no one except the Qin family and Lou Yan knows it.
However, the people in the palace knew to some extent that Qin Xiao had a close relationship with the princess, otherwise the princess would not have risked going to the eldest prince's mansion because of him. This led to Xiao Jue imprisoning the princess and causing such a big incident.
Since Qin Zhen came back, Qin Xiao came to the palace every day, but was blocked from the door every time and never saw Qin Zhen once.
I came today with the intention of giving it a try. Even if I can't see her, it's worthwhile to come here to watch over Qin Zhen and listen to the servants of the palace say, "The princess is very good."
But he didn't expect that Lou Yan would actually come out to see him in person.
As soon as he saw the visitor, Qin Xiao stood up in shock: "Your Highness? You..."
Before he finished speaking, his eyes fell on the child hanging on Lou Yan's arm, and Qin Xiao's eyes suddenly widened.
He stared at the child and said somewhat incoherently: "Is this, is this... her child?"
Lou Yan nodded and raised his arm very casually: "Would you like a hug?"
Qin Xiao raised his hands and wiped them on his clothes a few times, and asked, "Can I hug you?"
Lou Yan raised his arm again.
Qin Xiao carefully took the child from Lou Yan's hand. The child did not cry and looked at him curiously with his eyes open.
When Qin Xiao looked at these eyes, his own eyes turned red.
"The eyes look really similar." Qin Xiao couldn't help but said.
These eyes are exactly the same as Qin Zhen's eyes. They belong to the Qin family.
Lou Yan looked at Qin Xiao holding the child carefully and said: "The child is very good and healthy, there is nothing wrong with her. Zhen Zhen has suffered a little and is a little weak, but I will raise her well, and so will you."
Don’t worry.”
Qin Xiao raised his head and looked at Lou Yan, and after a while he said, "I'm sorry, it's all because of me."
If it hadn't been for him, Qin Zhen wouldn't have been deceived into going to the eldest prince's mansion because she was too worried about him.
"I have dealt with the shopkeeper of the Yinlou who came to report to Zhen Zhen," Qin Xiao said in a deep voice, "I have an unshirkable responsibility for this matter."
Lou Yan glanced at him for a few times before saying, "You didn't do this on purpose."
Qin Xiao was just a businessman, and he had no power to fight back in front of the eldest prince.
Xiao Jue used him as a cover to deal with Qin Zhen, which no one expected.
Qin Zhen thought she had hidden her relationship with Qin Xiao very well, but she didn't know that someone had secretly discovered it long ago and used it to threaten her.
Qin Xiao can also be considered a victim.
Lou Yan didn't allow him to visit before, and he was actually a little angry. Now, he has figured it out.
What's more, he didn't want Qin Zhen to be caught in a dilemma between himself and his relatives.
"Second brother, you don't have to blame yourself for this." Lou Yan persuaded in a low voice, "Zhen Zhen has never blamed you, and she doesn't want you to feel guilty about this matter."
Qin Xiao was stunned for a moment when Lou Yan shouted "Second Brother", and he didn't have the nerve to open his mouth to respond for a long time.
Lou Yan is too cold.
Qin Xiao was silent for a moment and then asked: "Can I see Zhen Zhen?"
Lou Yan nodded: "Yes, but she just came back from the palace and is tired. Wait until she wakes up and then lead the second brother to see her, okay?"
How could Qin Xiao say no? He nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, let her have a good rest is the most important thing."
As long as I can see Qin Zhen, it doesn't matter if I wait a little longer.
