Chapter 360 Hiding a Person

"In the evening, go and invite her to the East Palace." Murong Yan said after thinking for a while.

"Master, isn't this inappropriate? She is the Princess of Qin. If you invite her alone to the East Palace, the ministers in the court will gossip about her."

Chifeng's eyes widened slightly, with worry on his face.

Murong Yan raised his eyelids slightly, his face calm and cold as he said, "Are you asking me to go to Wutong Courtyard to meet her in private?"

"That's not what I meant. It would be even worse for you and Princess Jin. Do you want to invite other people to come to the East Palace?" Chifeng suggested.

Although the State of Chu is now under the control of Your Highness, we still need to pay attention to what we should pay attention to.

"No need." Murong Yan said coldly.

He finally had the chance to be alone with Jiang Nanjiao, so he didn't want anyone else to be around.

Chiffon: "..."

Murong Yan said in a deep voice: "Go down."

"Yes, I'll take my leave." Chifeng bowed and left, sighing in his heart. His Highness was entertaining Princess Jin in the East Palace, and there would definitely be all kinds of rumors in the capital.

He had just walked out of the East Palace gate.

A luxurious carriage slowly stopped.

Chifeng recognized it as the carriage of the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Everyone in the capital knew that she liked His Highness, but His Highness had clearly rejected her.

After the carriage stopped, a woman in a flowery skirt came down. Her palm-sized face was lightly made up, her skin was as white as snow, and her eyebrows and eyes were as beautiful as a painting.

She wore delicate tassel long earrings on her small and dainty ears. The crystal beads gently collided with each other when she walked, making a pleasant and melodious sound.

"Hello, Miss Su. Are you here to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Chifeng quickly stepped forward after seeing the other party get off the carriage.

"Is Your Highness here?" Su Qiluo's voice was soft and her smile was very sweet and charming.

"His Highness is handling government affairs." Chiffon said.

Su Qiluo pursed her lips and said, "It seems that I came at the wrong time. Are you going out?"

After thinking it over, Chifeng said, "The Princess of Qin has come to Chu. Your Highness has invited her to a banquet at the East Palace in the evening. I will go and inform her."

"Princess Jin of Qin?" Su Qiluo was slightly stunned.

"Um."

"Prince Jin is here too?"

Chifeng said quickly: "Only Princess Jin."

Su Qiluo's face changed slightly, and she said anxiously: "Your Highness invited her to the East Palace alone for a banquet. If this gets out, what will outsiders say?"

He is the Crown Prince, why doesn't he avoid suspicion?

It turned out that some people in the court were eager to catch him immediately.

The Emperor has already decided to pass the throne to Your Highness. The other princes are extremely jealous and are hoping that he will make a mistake.

"I have advised His Highness, but he still insisted on inviting Princess Jin." Chifeng said that he was also very depressed, because he knew that Princess Jin was unique in His Highness' heart.

"You go and invite Princess Jin. I will come over in the evening. Don't tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince yet." Su Qiluo decided that she would come in the evening as well.

No matter what, she would not let those people do anything to harm His Highness.

"Thank you, Miss Su." Chifeng breathed a sigh of relief. He had just said all this to her on purpose just to get her to come over. At least there was a third person present.

Others can't say anything.

"Chifeng, if you wish the best for His Highness, please tell me next time something like this happens." Su Qiluo said with a pleading look in her eyes.

Chifeng looked at her and felt a little sorry for her. "Ms. Su, His Highness..."

"Although His Highness rejected me, I still like him and I don't want him to get hurt." Su Qiluo said with a firm look.

"Okay." Chiffon agreed. He didn't want His Highness to get hurt.

"Your Highness... does he like Princess Jin?" Su Qiluo hesitated for a moment, but still asked. She had liked Murong Yan for a very long time.

Perhaps among all the noble ladies in the capital, no one understood him better than she did.

The ministers in the court kept advising him to marry the Crown Princess, but he never took it seriously. At that time, she guessed that there must be someone hidden in his heart.

He never invited any woman to the East Palace alone for a banquet.

But tonight he invited Princess Jin without any scruples.

It's not hard to guess.

A sense of sadness welled up in my heart.

Princess Jin is already married, and I heard that she and Prince Jin have a pair of twins, so why is he still thinking about her?

She was somewhat curious about what kind of person Princess Jin was.

Is it the same as the rumors?

"Princess Jin is a very important person to His Highness. When he was out dealing with the flood, he was attacked. If it weren't for Princess Jin's treatment of His Highness, His Highness would never have come back."

Chifeng said seriously that he knew Su Qiluo only had His Highness in her heart and she truly wanted the best for His Highness.

So he was going to tell her about it.

Lest she harm Princess Jin, that would offend His Highness.

He didn't want her relationship with His Highness to become strained.

"I understand." Su Qiluo was surprised. It turned out that they had known each other for a long time. The prince had been missing for a month and the governor reported that the prince might be dead.

The emperor was furious and sent out countless people to look for it, but they couldn't find it.

Just when everyone thought His Highness was dead.

He returned safe and sound.

I heard that he was seriously injured and had a near-death experience. No wonder Princess Jin was so special to him and made an exception for him.

Chiffon bowed and left quickly.

Su Qiluo looked at the gate of the East Palace and turned around and got on the carriage.

…

evening.

The streets of the capital were crowded with people and cars.

Nan Jiao sat in the carriage, leaning against the window sill and looking outside quietly. She was not looking at the street scene, but thinking about Zhan Beiheng.

I wonder if they have returned to the capital of Qin?

The medicine could make him sleep for four or five days. She asked Bai Qin to feed him some more medicine when the time came so that he could fall asleep and return to the capital, otherwise he would wake up.

He will definitely come to Chu.

She could already imagine how furious he would be when he woke up, but she still didn't regret letting him go back.

Now is not the time to confront the State of Chu head-on.

A moment.

The carriage arrived at the gate of the East Palace.

"Princess, we're here." Molan said and got off the carriage.

Nan Jiao opened the curtain of the carriage and went down, looking at the magnificent palace with a thoughtful look on her face. Murong Yan only invited her?

She was the Princess of Jin in Qin State.

He is the crown prince of Chu.

If it were just them tonight, who knows what would happen tomorrow.

If she were not the Princess of Jin, she would naturally not have any scruples, but now she is the Princess of Jin, representing the State of Qin, so she has to be more scrupulous.

While she was thinking.

The carriage from the Prime Minister's Mansion slowly approached and then stopped. Su Qiluo opened the curtain of the carriage and got out. She saw the woman in purple standing not far away.

Just looking at her profile, you can tell that she is a stunningly beautiful woman.

Is she the Princess of Jin?

Nan Jiao heard footsteps approaching and looked at the person with sharp eyes. It was a woman wearing luxurious clothes, exuding nobility.

"Princess Jin, I am Su Qiluo, the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister of Chu." Su Qiluo greeted with a friendly smile.

"Did the Crown Prince of Chu invite you here?" Nan Jiao asked.

"Your Highness didn't invite me, I came here on my own." Su Qiluo said with a generous and dignified smile.
