Hearing Chu Han's voice, Qi Yuling was immediately startled!
In an instant, her heart was beating wildly, as if it would jump out at any time! She was so frightened that she broke into a cold sweat!
Wasn't Chu Han summoned to the palace? Why did he come back so soon?
Before she could calm down, the door was pushed open and Chu Han walked in.
His dark eyes glanced in the direction of Qi Yuling, then he walked to Xie Yao and sat down.
Xie Yao calmly poured a cup of tea for Chu Han and handed it over, "Your Highness, take a sip of tea."
Chu Han took the drink and drank it in one gulp. He looked at Xie Yao and asked seriously, "What does sister-in-law want from you?"
"It's okay!" Qi Yuling said first before Xie Yao could speak. "We were just chatting."
While speaking, he also quickly winked at Xie Yao, signaling Xie Yao not to talk nonsense.
Xie Yao chuckled in her heart and responded lightly on her face, "Yes."
"Chat?" Chu Han raised his eyes, glanced at Qi Yuling, and said nothing.
Qi Yuling felt Chu Han's gaze and felt a thump in her heart!
In the past, when she saw Chu Han, her mood was complicated and her emotions suddenly arose. But when she saw Chu Han tonight, she only felt worried, even afraid!
She was afraid that Yan Jun would say that she was going to deal with Chu Han! Or maybe Chu Han would notice something himself!
She was even more afraid that her image in Chu Han's heart would be changed or even destroyed!
"I've been a little bored these days and want to find someone to chat with. Very few of the princes are getting married. It just so happens that Miss Yan is about to marry into Prince Han's Mansion and she's able to chat with me... If fifth brother is concerned, I won't bother you again in the future.
That's Miss Yan." Qi Yuling thought for a moment and continued to explain, "It's really getting late, so I'll go back first."
Because his mood has eased, his tone is much calmer than before.
After saying that, she turned around and walked out.
Just when she walked to the door, Chu Han's low and cold voice suddenly came from behind her, "Yan Jun is simple by nature and not good at intrigues. My sister-in-law should find someone else to chat with."
Qi Yuling paused in his steps, his eyes widened with an incredible look!
In Chu Han's mind, is she the one who is good at intrigues?
She immediately turned back and looked at that proud figure. She couldn't help but feel desolate in her heart, and asked aloud: "Fifth brother, are you saying that I am good at intrigues?"
That look and tone were so aggrieved that Xie Yao felt pity for him and wanted to applaud Qi Yuling!
She could see that Qi Yuling was not pretending, but really thought she was wronged!
A person who took advantage of Chu Han being summoned to the palace to collect evidence of Chu Han’s crimes can think that he has been wronged, and of course he deserves applause!
Sure enough, Chu Han gave an affirmative answer with a cold expression, "Sister-in-law is right."
Qi Yuling was speechless, her eyes filled with tears, and she looked at Chu Han in disbelief.
Although Chu Han once asked her to be her Princess Jing and treat her coldly, she was ready to accept her fate, but she never thought that Chu Han would be so heartless towards her! He actually thought that she was good at intrigues.
woman?
She does have some scheming intentions, but who among the royal family is completely innocent?
Looking at Chu Han's cold eyes, her heart felt cold.
Maybe, she should listen to Chu Jing and get Chu Han's evidence first.
Since Chu Han is ruthless, don't blame her for being unrighteous!
With this in mind, she retracted her gaze decisively and turned away, "Prince Han was joking. When Yan Jun marries into Prince Han's palace, we will be sisters-in-law, so we will naturally see each other often."
She will come to Prince Han's Mansion again!
Yan Jun had promised to be hers before, so of course she couldn't just give up.
As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Yuling's figure had completely disappeared from the doorway.
After Qi Yuling had completely gone away, Xie Yao walked over and closed the door. She turned back and looked at Chu Han with a playful look, "Princess Jing looks very sad."
She could see that Qi Yuling was really sad, but she didn't sympathize with him. Instead, she wanted to applaud him!
Although Qi Yuling threatened to come again, at least she probably won't come again in a short period of time, and she can be quiet and peaceful.
"Are you jealous?" Chu Han's black eyes flashed slightly, and he stepped forward directly, with a dangerous aura around him.
Xie Yao didn't expect that Chu Han would suddenly act like this. She wanted to dodge sideways, but was directly pressed against the wall by Chu Han.
Xie Yao glanced at Chu Han's arm blocking her with her peripheral vision, then turned back and looked into those deep black eyes, feeling as if her whole body was about to be sucked in!
She quickly withdrew her gaze and steadied her quickened breathing, "What do I have to be jealous of? She is your sister-in-law, Prince Jing's concubine."
"Really?" Chu Han looked at the pretty rosy face of the person in front of him and slowly leaned forward.
Xie Yao felt Chu Han's breath getting closer and closer, and it could even hit her in the face...
She immediately put her hand against Chu Han, her mind was racing, and she changed the subject: "Didn't you get called into the palace? Why did you come back so soon? Didn't your father punish you?"
As soon as the words came out, she clearly felt that the aura on Chu Han's body changed and became cold. Compared with a moment ago, it was like ice and fire!
"What's wrong? What happened?" She slowed down her voice and stared into Chu Han's dark eyes.
Seeing that Chu Han seemed unwilling to speak, she said solemnly: "Since I am yours in life and your ghost in death, you must tell me your affairs instead of hiding them."
Chu Han suddenly raised his eyes to look at Xie Yao, and the boundless glaciers in his eyes suddenly melted into a rushing sea, without any trace of coldness anymore.
"You are right, you are my king's man, and I will not hide it from you." His cool lips curved in a warm arc, and he slowly recounted what happened in the royal study.
After Xie Yao listened, she only felt one thing in her heart, it hurt!
Feeling distressed!
She thought that a father could send someone to assassinate his son, which was shocking enough and enough to recognize the face of Emperor Zhaochu!
But when those words came out of Chu Han's mouth, she still felt heartbroken!
She stretched out her hands, hugged Chu Han tightly, and said, "It doesn't matter, you still have me. No matter what happens, I will be your strongest support."
Chu Han's dark eyes suddenly trembled, he retracted his arm and slowly hugged Xie Yao tightly, his expression gradually became calmer and full of warmth.
The two people hugged each other silently in the room, and the silence here was better than the sound.
However, this situation did not last long.
Xie Yao hugged Chu Han for a while, and suddenly noticed that Chu Han's body temperature had increased a little, and his breathing had also changed.
Her heart tightened and she let go of Chu Han first, but Chu Han still held her tightly and had no intention of letting go.
"My lord, are you hungry? I'll ask the kitchen to prepare some food." She subconsciously changed the subject.
"I'm not hungry." Chu Han still hugged Xie Yao, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his eyes were clear.
"Then..." Xie Yao couldn't see Chu Han's eyes, thought for a moment, and said quickly: "Then you should be careful about Prince Jing recently! Princess Jing is here, and she should want to collect evidence of your crime."
