The figure that is walking away comes and goes quickly.
Zong Zheng Xiaoting raised the corner of his mouth playfully.
No delays or arrears? That’s the effect we want.
Situ Xunxiao left without any hesitation, but he did not see the joyful look in Zongzheng Xiaoting's eyes that showed his plan had succeeded.
After making sure that Situ Xunxiao had left, Zongzheng Xiaoting excitedly grabbed the banknote that had just been thrown on the table. Was this considered hush money for their breakup?
Just as Zong Zheng Xiaoting excitedly opened the rolled-up banknote, his face suddenly turned ugly.
This banknote!
Zong Zheng Xiaoting went through them one by one, checking them carefully without missing a single one. Not a single one was from Luoshan. These banknotes were worth at least a thousand taels, and every single one was from Yunguang.
Zong Zheng Xiaoting stood there in a daze, closed his eyes tightly, and had a look of worry in his brows.
When Qingqing came back, she saw her master in such distress, with a large stack of banknotes tightly clenched in his hand.
"Princess, I'm back." Qingqing called Zongzheng Xiaoting softly, and then she saw her master eagerly open his eyes, "You're finally back."
"Princess, what happened?" Qingqing was really scared when she saw the originally quiet person suddenly become anxious, but she was still worried and looked at Zongzheng Xiaoting.
"Let me ask you, is there anything unusual about the eyes of the God of War Prince of Yunguang Kingdom?" Zongzheng Xiaoting's suspicion turned into questions out loud. The most direct and clear answer was to start with the eyes.
"I only heard that the color of the eyes is like that of a monster." Qingqing frowned and answered honestly.
"How is it different?"
"It seems to be the same color as the sea, and sometimes it changes depth."
"Blue? Are eyes like this weird?" Zong Zheng Xiaoting's heart turned cold.
Zong Zheng Xiaoting looked at Qingqing's expression and knew the answer in his heart. He didn't expect that such eyes would be defined in this way in this world. Then, this person must be the God of War, Situ Xunxiao.
If that's the case!
Zong Zheng Xiaoting hurriedly left Qingqing behind and headed towards his own main hall in Cuiyun Palace. He hurriedly took out the banknote that Situ Xunxiao had given him that night from the wooden box where he had kept the banknote. As expected.
It's different!
Qingqing looked at the princess worriedly, not knowing why she was suddenly worried, but she also understood and stood quietly aside.
Zong Zheng Xiaoting was seen comparing the silver bills in his hand with the silver bills in the wooden box one by one, and the frown between his brows became more and more obvious.
"Sure enough, you are very thoughtful!" Zong Zheng Xiaoting dropped the banknote, rubbing his brows in distress. The turning of the gears of fate was too heartless to him, wasn't it? The two of them were so far apart, yet they met inexplicably. Who would have thought that the person he saved was the legendary God of War? Why did the matter have a vague and dangerous message?
"Princess, are you okay?" Qingqing noticed that the string that Zongzheng Xiaoting was holding tightly seemed to loosen, and asked hurriedly.
"I got these banknotes from Situ Xunxiao." Zong Zheng Xiaoting pointed to the banknotes placed on both sides.
"Oh...what!" Qingqing's voice suddenly became louder and she looked at Zongzheng Xiaoting in disbelief.
Qingqing looked at her master's indifferent expression and couldn't help swallowing her saliva. She raised her eyelids and asked anxiously, "How could the princess..."
Zong Zheng Xiaoting waved his hands, signaling Qingqing to be quiet, and said simply and concisely, "The one I protected in the East Side Hall that night was him."
Zong Zheng Xiaoting's words caused Qingqing to gasp.
"Of course, I agreed because I knew he had no intentions." Zong Zheng Xiaoting smiled lightly, "This is not important. What's important is, Qingqing, come here and take a look. This is the banknote he gave me when I saved him that night, and this is the banknote he gave me today when he showed up in the palace in broad daylight."
Qingqing followed Zong Zheng Xiaoting's hand and looked at the banknotes on the table.
"The silver bills from Yunguang Country and our Luozha Country?" Qingqing looked at it carefully for a long time and finally asked.
"That's the problem." Zong Zheng Xiaoting nodded. "If a person came to the palace at night and brought our Luozha country's banknotes, it wouldn't be terrible. What's terrible is that today, he brought the Yunguang country's banknotes. Then, I have to worry."
"Princess, Qingqing doesn't understand. Is there something wrong here?" Qingqing was a little confused, but couldn't understand what Zongzheng Xiaoting was worried about. She just put away the banknotes for Zongzheng Xiaoting while waiting quietly.
Zong Zheng Xiaoting took a long breath, rubbed his brows, and tried to calm his irritation. After a long time, Zong Zheng Xiaoting finally expressed his worries: "If it is because he came to Luozha Country, then the banknotes he has are from Luoshan Country, which is understandable. However, people have habits. So many banknotes are all from Luozha Country, while the banknotes today are all from Yunguang Country. This can only prove that Situ Xunxiao is meticulous. When he visited the palace at night, he had already abandoned everything related to Yunguang Country. But in just one night, he was still seriously injured, but he was able to take care of everything. Do you think it's normal? Isn't it scary?"
Qingqing nodded after hearing this, her expression became solemn, and her round face was tightly wrinkled. "But Princess, what Qingqing is more concerned about is the reason for today's banknotes?"
"If I'm not mistaken, he has a crush on me."
"This..." Qingqing looked at Zongzheng Xiaoting, unable to hide her inner shock.
"Qingqing, don't forget, tonight is the palace banquet. Situ Xunxiao has always thought that I was a palace maid, and I also thought that he was a high-ranking official from a certain country. I never expected it to be like this. What will happen if he finds out about tonight's palace banquet that I am the one his Yunguang country wants to marry?" Zong Zheng Xiaoting pursed his lips and tapped the table impatiently.
Zong Zheng Xiaoting mentioned this, and Qing Qing finally understood what her master was worried about! Anyone in a high position, at the center of power, will have a group of people with unclear intentions trying to get close to him. Although the princess did not say how to get along with this war god, she has already made the war god interested. So, if they meet at the palace banquet today, I am afraid that the first feeling is that the princess has a purpose to get close to him.
In this case, considering the terrifying nature of the rumored God of War Prince, the variables during the marriage will increase. If the princess wants to cooperate with Doctor Chen, she will need the most relaxed environment for escape. If her identity is known, everything will be unpredictable.
The worry and understanding on Qingqing's face comforted Zongzheng Xiaoting. Such a smart little girl really saved him a lot of trouble.
"Princess, what should we do?" Qingqing asked worriedly.
"I'm afraid that neither you nor I can appear at the palace banquet tonight." Zong Zheng Xiaoting thought for a long time and said, "Go and ask Doctor Chen to come. If I'm not feeling well, we can skip this tedious process. We'll have to take it easy from now on."
"Qingqing knows, but Qingqing doesn't understand, why Qingqing can't show up either?"
