Upon hearing this, Ruan Qingchen's deep phoenix eyes flashed with surprise. He frowned slightly and replied, "This humble subject does not know."
Chu Qingxuan looked troubled and muttered, "So the Imperial Advisor didn't know either. I heard that the Imperial Advisor and the Prime Minister had a good relationship, so I thought the Imperial Advisor knew something."
Ruan Qingchen heard Chu Qingxuan's words, and he pursed his lips, seemingly wanting to speak but then stopped. Seeing his expression, Chu Qingxuan asked, "Is there anything the Imperial Preceptor wants to ask me?"
"Is this all His Majesty wanted to ask today?"
Chu Qingxuan nodded, "Otherwise what?"
What else can we do?
Chu Qingxuan suddenly remembered that she hadn't been to the Imperial Preceptor's residence for a long time since she last climbed over the wall.
She smiled slightly and said, "Speaking of which, I did come here today because I have other matters I would like the Imperial Advisor to assist me with."
After saying that, Chu Qingxuan's expression hardened. "Investigate Li Wen for me."
“Especially what he did to the eldest princess.”
"Yes!" Ruan Qingchen immediately agreed, her phoenix eyes serious.
Chu Qingxuan knew that Ruan Qingchen could do a good job.
After speaking, Chu Qingxuan realized that she and Ruan Qingchen had nothing else to say. She took a deep look at him, sighed slightly in her heart, and said, "Then I'll have to trouble the Imperial Preceptor."
After Chu Qingxuan left, Nan Yuan entered. He looked outside the door and asked softly, "My lord, why didn't His Majesty climb the wall this time?"
Ruan Qingchen's expression changed slightly, and she replied, "I don't know."
"I never imagined that His Majesty would enjoy climbing walls..."
Nan Yuan kept talking, but Ruan Qingchen didn't listen.
“Nanyuan,” Ruan Qingchen suddenly called out.
Nan Yuan was startled and immediately said, "Your subordinate knows his crime."
Ruan Qingchen turned around and asked softly, "Why would someone ask another person if they have someone they love?"
Nan Yuan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this; it turned out they weren't going to punish him for talking about the Empress climbing the wall.
When asked about the person you love?
Nan Yuan stroked her chin and said seriously, "If that's the case, then the person who asked must like someone else."
Ruan Qingchen's expression changed slightly.
Seeing this, Nan Yuan looked at Ruan Qingchen with a gossipy expression. Could it be that Her Majesty the Empress asked if the Lord had a woman he liked?
Ah, His Majesty is indeed domineering.
However... I doubt that my lord would like His Majesty.
After all, there are still some things standing between the two of them.
What a pity.
Nan Yuan only felt sorry for him, but he never expected that a sudden disaster would strike.
"You just said you knew you were guilty, so go and accept your punishment."
Nan Yuan: "..."
Sir, you're so quick to abandon me after I've served my purpose! You were just asking me a question, and I even thought I'd figured it out for you!
Nan Yuan felt wronged.
The next day, Le Wuyou came to the Imperial Preceptor's residence. She handed a book to Ruan Qingchen and said, "This is what His Majesty returned to you."
"Um."
This book, "Peony Love," was the one Chu Qingxuan had borrowed before. Ruan Qingchen recalled the image of Chu Qingxuan climbing the wall, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.
It's so subtle that you can't really tell unless you look closely.
Ruan Qingchen felt that Chu Qingxuan was not like an empress; in his eyes, she was more like a little girl.
Ruan Qingchen was startled by his thoughts. He put "Peony Love" back in its original place, looking conflicted.
Her gaze swept over the painting on the wall, her phoenix eyes filled with an unprecedented complexity and entanglement.
Ruan Qingchen stared at the painting in deep thought, recalling Nan Yuan's answer.
So here's the question: Does Chu Qingxuan like Jun Zilin?
