Chapter 74 She is not something you can touch, stay away from her!
Changning Palace.
With Qin Zhen's care, life in Changning Palace became much easier.
The food is all fresh and whatever you want is delivered promptly.
Murong Yan prescribed a new medicine. After taking it, Lou Shulan's cough subsided and she seemed to be more energetic. She even ate half a bowl of rice in the morning.
Lou Shulan herself was very happy, while Lou Yan had a smile on his face, but his heart was desolate.
Just after waiting for Lou Shulan to rest, I heard that someone was looking for her outside.
Lou Yan thought it was Qin Zhen and subconsciously quickened his pace. When he reached the door, he realized that the person standing outside was not Qin Zhen, but the prince Xiao Jue.
Through a crack in the door, Lou Yan looked at Xiao Jue quietly, with no expression on his face.
Xiao Jue frowned and said coldly: "What is your attitude?"
Lou Yan said quietly: "Has Your Highness received the letter I wrote to His Royal Highness?"
Xiao Jue frowned, feeling a little unhappy, but still said: "I got it."
Lou Yan stopped talking and just looked at Xiao Jue quietly.
Xiao Jue sneered and said: "Lou Yan, are you naive or stupid? I have endless official duties to deal with every day, but I still have to be distracted to take care of your trivial matters?"
"Little thing?" Lou Yan clicked these two words: "It turns out that my matter is just a trivial matter in the heart of His Highness the Crown Prince."
"Lou Yan, don't be so arrogant to me!" Xiao Jue said in a deep voice, "I'm here today because I have something to ask you."
Lou Yan nodded: "Your Highness, may I ask?"
Xiao Jue came closer and whispered: "You are so nervous about Concubine Shu... Is this Concubine Shu your biological mother?"
Lou Yan didn't speak, but his eyes became darker.
Seeing his acquiescence, Xiao Jue's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Mr. Yuan Xu said that you are probably an immature wolf with a deep mind. Sure enough, he was right. You are really a white-eyed wolf. I was kind enough to save you at the beginning.
I gave you a livelihood, but you used me to recognize your ancestor and become your third prince. This is not enough, you actually sent your mother, who was born in a lowly position, to the palace to confuse your father! Lou Yan, what do you want?
do what?"
Lou Yan's eyes also turned cold, and he said word by word: "Just talk to me, don't involve my mother."
"Am I wrong?" Xiao Jue said coldly: "What is your mother's background? She is not even qualified to carry your father's shoes. She got you through unscrupulous means, and now I don't know what means she has used to confuse my father."
The emperor, a village woman, really underestimated him!"
"Xiao Jue!" Lou Yan called him by his first name for the first time and said in a deep voice: "Shut up!"
"Have you finally revealed your true face?" Xiao Jue looked at Lou Yan coldly and said word for word: "I tell you, no matter what you want to do, I will not let you succeed. You want to use Shu
I tell you, it will never be possible for a concubine to please you in front of your father. If you recognize your identity, you will always be my Xiao Jue's slave and cannot change it."
Lou Yan closed his eyes, suddenly feeling ridiculous.
He worked for the prince not only because the prince had helped him before, but also because the prince was his biological elder brother.
He has been dependent on his mother since he was a child and has no other relatives. After meeting Xiao Jue, he thought he finally had relatives again.
But in the end, it was just a joke.
He treats others as relatives, while others only treat him as a dog.
Lou Yan slowly approached the door, stared into Xiao Jue's eyes, and said slowly: "Then remember, whoever dares to hurt my mother, I will kill him!"
After saying this, Lou Yan turned around and left.
"Stop!" Xiao Jue called to Lou Yan and asked in a deep voice, "What is your relationship with Qin Zhen?"
Lou Yan paused and looked back at Xiao Jue.
"Why is she helping you?" Xiao Jue frowned and looked at Lou Yan with an inquiring look: "Are you familiar with her?"
Lou Yan narrowed his eyes, and after a moment of silence, he said: "She was not helping me, but my mother and concubine. My mother helped her during the flower viewing party."
Xiao Jue was stunned for a moment and recalled the flower viewing party that day.
Concubine Shu did help Qin Zhen.
Xiao Jue put aside her doubts, but still said to Lou Yan: "Qin Zhen is not someone you can touch. Stay away from her in the future."
After saying this, Xiao Jue raised his feet and left.
Only then did Lou Yan realize that the real purpose of Xiao Jueyu's condescending visit to Changning Palace was to ask questions about Qin Zhen, and Lou Yan had nothing to do with him.
Lou Yan stood quietly for a moment, then suddenly laughed and murmured: "You said you can't get involved, so what if I do..."
——
Xiao Jue left Changning Palace. He had just taken a few steps when he was stopped by the maid from Changle Palace, who said it was the Queen's invitation.
Xiao Jue's expression darkened, with some reluctance in his eyes, but he couldn't refuse.
He entered Changle Palace with a sullen face. As soon as he entered the door and before he could stand still, a slap hit him on the face.
There was a loud snap and slap, and the maids in the room fell silent.
"Where have you been?" The queen roared at Xiao Jue like a madman: "Your brother was beaten like that, but you, the eldest brother, can't be seen. Are you still not a human being?"
Xiao Jue took a deep breath, raised his hand to help the queen, and said softly: "Mother, please calm down first, and tell me what happened first, okay?"
The queen threw Xiao Jue's hand away and said angrily: "You just had time to go to Changning Palace, why didn't you know that something happened to your brother?"
Xiao Jue: "..."
Xiao Jue looked at the maid standing on one side and asked in a deep voice: "What happened?"
The maid carefully explained the cause and effect.
The queen sat on a chair wiping her tears, with fierce eyes, and said to Xiao Jue: "Go, cramp and skin Qin Hong, and let him make amends to my son!"
Xiao Jue's temples jumped a few times, and he said slowly: "Qin Hong took away his fourth brother with the tacit consent of his father. This matter is not easy to handle. What's more, Qin Hong is now the commander of the imperial army and has the lifeblood of the entire palace in his hands.
, it is the sharp blade in Father’s hand, no one can touch it.”
"Aren't you the prince? Can't you even do this?" The queen grabbed the teacup on the table and smashed it on Xiao Jue: "Are you going to let your brother be bullied?"
Xiao Jue raised his hand to pluck the tea leaves from his clothes and said calmly: "I'm just a prince. He doesn't just do whatever he wants."
"Then what's the use of being a prince? You can't do anything, trash, trash!" The queen smashed her again.
Xiao Jue took a deep breath and told the people next to him: "Take good care of your mother. I'll go and pay my respects to my father first."
After saying that, he turned around and left Changle Palace quickly. He could still hear his mother's curses in his ears.
Xiao Jue's face was extremely gloomy, and the hands hanging by his sides were tightly clenched into fists.
In the eyes of his mother, his son is worse than a dog.
In her heart, only Xiao Yao is her son.
Not only that, she even said more than once that Xiao Yao should be the one to hold the position of prince.
