Chapter 20 He still took advantage of me in the palace
Zhu's mother was worried: Is it appropriate to sit at the same table with the prince?
After hesitating for a long time, she whispered:
"Thank you, Your Highness." Then she carefully sat down at the table.
At the same time, Xue Nian and Qi Feng also found a place to sit down.
Zhu Wenqin sat down next to Jing Siye without thinking.
Mother Zhu's face suddenly changed with fear, and she stood up hurriedly:
"Qin'er, don't be rude. Come and sit here with your mother."
Zhu Wenqin opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she swallowed the words back and could only respond helplessly:
"...Okay." His face was full of reluctance.
Just as Zhu Wenqin was about to stand up, Jing Siye grabbed him with a calm expression.
"No need for that. I am here in disguise today, so there is no need for formalities. I wish the guards to sit beside me so that it will be convenient for me to serve the food."
After hearing this, Zhu's mother felt relieved and slowly sat back down, but she still looked at Zhu Wenqin from time to time, her eyes full of worry.
Zhu Wenqin turned her head and looked at Zhu's mother, and asked curiously:
"Mother, didn't we live in a small shabby house in the south of the city before? Why are you here?"
Mother Zhu looked at Jing Siye and said, "I have to thank the prince for asking the guard Xue to bring me here last time. They don't let mother work, so when mother is too idle, she helps out in the kitchen. It was the waiter who told mother that you were here just now."
Zhu Wenqin suddenly realized: "So that's how it is. Your Majesty is so kind."
As she said that, she hugged Jing Siye's arm and started to act coquettishly and affectionately.
Mother Zhu was frightened by this scene again. She stood up again in a panic, her voice full of reproach:
"Qin'er, why are you so rude?"
Then, he looked at Jing Siye with an apologetic look on his face:
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty. Qin'er has been spoiled by me at home. Please don't take it to heart."
At this moment, beads of sweat appeared on her forehead and she felt very uneasy.
The corner of Jing Siye's mouth twitched slightly:
In fact, I am also very used to him...
But how can I say this now?
Zhu Wenqin finally realized that her actions were a bit out of line, so she let go of her hand, pouted, and muttered to herself:
[Isn’t it just an arm around each other?] 】
[He even took advantage of me in the palace.] 】
"Ahem..." Jing Siye choked on the wine he had just drunk. Facing the embarrassment, he remained calm:
"Xue Nian, this wine is too strong, change it."
Xue Nian: Isn’t this what the prince usually drinks?
"Yes, Your Majesty." Whatever the master says is what it is.
Mother Zhu looked at Jing Siye with a serious expression and spoke tentatively:
"Your Highness, Qin'er must have caused you a lot of trouble in the palace. I think... Qin'er is not suitable to stay with you, Your Highness?"
Zhu's mother's meaning was very clear, she just didn't want her son to get involved in this mess.
When Zhu Wenqin heard this, she instantly became anxious, like a kitten whose tail was stepped on. She stood up and said anxiously:
"Mom, I'm not in trouble. I'm very obedient."
However, Zhu's mother seemed not to have heard what her son said. She stared at Jing Siye without blinking, holding her breath, just waiting for his reaction.
When Jing Siye heard this, he narrowed his eyes with mixed emotions.
Given the current complicated situation, it is indeed dangerous for the little guy to stay with me.
After all, they were about to go to Hangzhou to fight the epidemic. If they left him in the palace, those forces secretly coveting the palace would probably not let go of this opportunity easily, and the palace was not absolutely safe.
But it would be even more inappropriate to take him to Hangzhou Province. With his weak body, if he were to be infected with the disease, the consequences would be unimaginable.
He is the boss behind this tea house, and the guys in the shop are all his subordinates who have followed him through life and death in the past. Leaving Zhu Wenqin here should be relatively safe.
Jing Siye hesitated for a long time, frowned slightly, and finally spoke slowly:
"Well...I will make an exception and let Guard Zhu make the decision himself."
When Zhu Wenqin heard this, he immediately started to move:
"I don't want it. I want to stay in the palace."
When Mother Zhu heard this, a trace of anger flashed across her face, and she rebuked him sternly:
"Qin'er, you are becoming more and more unruly."
Zhu Wenqin felt extremely aggrieved, her lips were pouted so much that a bottle of oil could be hung on them, and she secretly complained:
[You stinky man, you didn't even ask me to stay,]
[It turns out that what we usually do is fake,]
[Sure enough, she abandoned him after having sex with him.] 】
But even though he was complaining in his heart, he was very persistent in finding the truth and redressing his uncle's name.
So, the next second, he acted like a naughty child, shaking Jing Siye's arm again and acting like a spoiled child, his voice soft and sticky: "I don't care, Your Majesty~"
When Jing Siye heard what he had said before, the corners of his mouth drooped noticeably, but the following act of acting coquettishly was indeed very useful to him.
He was reluctant to let Zhu Wenqin leave, he was just worried about his safety.
After thinking it over again and again, he finally compromised. Well, at most he could leave a few more secret guards in the palace to keep an eye on him at all times to ensure his safety.
Jing Siye gently pulled Zhu Wenqin to sit down, his eyes full of indulgence:
"Okay, okay, guard, don't get excited. The king said you can make the decision."
Zhu Wenqin still felt a little unhappy, and muttered to herself:
[You stinky man, it seems like I'm going to give you the cold shoulder. 】
Stinky man Jing Siye: This is really not what I think.
Zhu's mother quietly watched the interaction between the two people in front of her, recalling every performance and detail just now, and an inexplicable uneasiness surged in her heart, and her mood became heavier and heavier.
There was a flash of panic and worry in her eyes:
Could it be that...
She didn't dare to think further, for she thought of her son who was born prematurely, weak from birth, in poor health, and not very smart. If he really married into the palace, as a man, he would not be able to have children for the prince, and he would definitely be despised one day in the future. What should she do?
Zhu's mother suppressed her inner panic, forced a smile on her face, and said that she was not feeling well and wanted to get up and leave.
When Zhu Wenqin heard this, he followed subconsciously. He also felt that something was wrong with his mother's mood.
Qi Feng looked at Jing Siye and asked if he should go and watch. Jing Siye shook his head slightly, indicating that they should just have a good reunion for a while.
Zhu Wenqin followed his mother into the backyard room. After entering, his mother closed her eyes, took a deep breath, turned around and said to him:
"Qin'er, listen to your mother and leave Zhaonan Palace."
Zhu Wenqin: "No, mother, I was worried about your safety before, but now that you are living here, I am relieved. I will not ignore my uncle's affairs."
Zhu's mother didn't know how to persuade him. Perhaps her own child didn't even realize that he and King Zhaonan had gone beyond the master-servant relationship. Who knows how many dangers the future holds. So with a bit of threatening meaning:
"But Qin'er, the King of Zhaonan is extremely powerful, he kills people without blinking an eye, and his personality is also unpredictable. He may be nice to you today, but turn his face against you tomorrow. You can't beat him."
Zhu Wenqin thought about what King Zhaonan had done to him in the past two days, patted his chest with confidence and said with a smile:
"Mom, if you can't beat him, just seduce him and make him obey my orders. Anyway, don't worry, the child will be fine."
