Chapter 177 Her Hint

As soon as the thought came to her mind, Si Linglong quickly denied it.

[As soon as Helian Yue left, I chased after him. The dog emperor might have thought that I couldn't bear to leave him.]

【no.】

Si Linglong decided to think about it again.

Standing there and watching the dust gradually dissipating in the distance, Si Linglong's face was filled with bitterness and hatred.

As the concubines around her dispersed, Si Linglong seemed even more independent.

"Could it be that Concubine Lang Gui is reluctant to leave the Emperor?"

A slightly teasing male voice suddenly came from behind her. Si Linglong's heart skipped a beat. She turned around abruptly and saw Helian Tuo standing behind her with his arms folded, looking at her with a slightly deep look in his eyes.

Si Linglong was silent for a moment.

Ever since she was tricked by the system into helping this guy that night, Si Linglong felt that the male protagonist seemed to be targeting her.

He always looks like he's planning something.

"Your Highness is free?"

Si Linglong asked him back, her tone slightly cold.

When she is in a bad mood, she can even say a few words to the king, let alone this bastard male protagonist.

If it weren't for him and Bai Qianqian, he wouldn't have been fooled by the system.

Helian Tuo seemed to have not expected Si Linglong to react like this. He was slightly stunned. Before he could speak, he heard her say in a serious tone,

"His Royal Highness Prince Li was ordered to escort us back to the capital. As a son, the Crown Prince did not even go to help, leaving the two old men to work so hard. Tsk..."

Helian Yue walked in a hurry. Prince Li and Duke Zhongyong Gu Yunhai arranged the affairs of Jiuzhu Mountain together. Gu Qingquan was worried that Gu Yunhai's illness had just recovered, so he had just gone with them to supervise the arrangements for returning to Beijing.

Such a comparison makes it even more obvious that the prince Helian Tuo has nothing to do.

But...would most people say it so directly?

Helian Tuo was almost depressed by the contempt in her words. His handsome face showed a bit of helplessness, "It seems that Concubine Lang Gui is in a bad mood."

As she spoke, she suddenly raised a half-smile, pretending to be puzzled, "The emperor just took a new sister for the concubine, is the concubine Lang unhappy about this?"

Helian Tuo's words were like talking about something irrelevant.

No one would believe me if I said it wasn't intentional.

Si Linglong looked at Helian Tuo, but he didn't look angry as he had imagined. Instead, he smiled at him elegantly.

The one who teases first is the loser, so don't blame her.

"I thought the Crown Prince would be the least happy about Lady Shen entering the palace. After all, this was originally the Crown Prince's marriage. It's a pity that they are not destined to be together."

As soon as Si Linglong said this, the smile on Helian Tuo's lips froze slightly.

Not many people knew about their marriage discussion, so how did she know about it?

Could it be that Helian Yue told her?

Just because I stole his fiancée, he's so proud of himself?

A gloomy look suddenly flashed across Helian Tuo's eyes.

"Your Highness, are you going to ask me how I know this?"

Si Linglong continued to babble, "Of course it's all thanks to Concubine Lian. I just learned that Concubine Lian has such a deep affection for the prince. Oh, I'm really moved."

Si Linglong ignored Helian Tuo's expression and took out a handkerchief while speaking, pretending to press the corners of her eyes.

The corners of Helian Tuo's mouth twitched violently. Looking at Si Linglong in front of him, he didn't know how to react for a moment.

At the same time, he was certain in his heart that it was Bai Qianqian who leaked the information.

After all, Shen Rongrong's dance performance was indeed her doing, so it was normal for her to be accidentally discovered by Lang Guipin.

But I didn't expect that Concubine Lang Gui would dare to say it directly.

However, this pretentious look did not make him angry at all. After a moment of hesitation, Heliantuo adjusted his expression again.

"you……"

Just as he opened his mouth, he heard a slightly dissatisfied female voice coming from behind him.

"What are you doing?"

Si Linglong and Helian Tuo turned around and saw Bai Qianqian walking towards them quickly, with an anxious and dissatisfied look on her face, as if the two were doing something illegal.

Si Linglong looked at him and Helian Tuo, who always maintained a distance of more than one meter. She was silent for a moment, and suddenly seemed to think of something. She rolled her eyes slightly and spoke before Helian Tuo could open his mouth.

"Your Highness is worried that I'm in a bad mood because of Noble Shen's matter. But if you ask me, there's nothing wrong with me. Your Highness should be worried about Sister Lianfei. After all, you were never favored to begin with, and now there's another person. You'd better not hang yourself on the Emperor's tree and find a new backer as soon as possible. I think the Queen Mother is fine."

Helian Tuo, Bai Qianqian:? ?

Si Linglong ignored the two of them and pretended to be enlightened, "Oh no, the Queen Mother is in Yutai Mountain. We won't have a chance to see her if we return to the palace. Sister, you should think of another way."

Si Linglong stopped talking and, without caring about the two's reactions, she turned around and took Shu Hong and Qinglu back to her own tent, leaving Helian Tuo and Bai Qianqian standing there.

One of them was so angry at Si Linglong that he almost jumped up and down, while the other was thinking about what she had just said, seeming to be lost in thought.
