Chapter 716 Follow Her Back to the Palace
While sending Xiu Liu away again, Xue Shan told Hua Yan directly about what Xiang Tian had just asked about the mermaid.
Hua Yan's face immediately changed.
"You said my brother might have discovered that I'm a mermaid?!"
Although he lowered his voice, his tone still showed surprise.
Xue Sha shook his little feet again, and said firmly, "It must be! Otherwise, how would he know about the mermaids?"
He added, "In this palace, there are only you and the other fish. If you are not suspicious of you, then are you also suspicious of that Quanxian..."
As Xue Sha spoke, his tone suddenly became uncertain.
After all, Xiang Tian has contact with Bai Qianqian, what if?
Just thinking about this made Hua Yan's face turn pale.
Lord Yuanzun said that Mr. Quan is in danger!
My brother has been found to have betrayed me, so he can’t continue to have contact with that person, right?
What if the person's true identity is discovered and he is accidentally silenced?
Thinking of this, Hua Yan couldn't sit still anymore.
"I, I'll go find my brother and explain it to him."
Hua Yan ran away as soon as she said she would, and Xue Sha didn't even have the time to catch her. He could only climb up from the couch, stomped his feet, and decided to go find Ling Long to remind her first.
What Xue Sha didn't expect was.
On his way to Concubine Quan's palace, Xiang Tian just happened to run into Bai Qianqian's sedan chair.
Although Bai Qianqian was not fully recovered from her illness, she had brought people out openly since Helian Yue and Si Linglong had discovered that she had gone out to "relax" last time. This time, she went to the hospital to ask for medicine.
Although she stopped taking Wu Shi San, the subsequent addiction caused by Wu Shi San still occurred every day. Bai Qianqian had to go to the pharmacy herself to find some medicinal herbs that could control the addiction.
It would be even better if we could find something that could restore some of her spiritual power.
After all, this is the imperial palace, filled with abundant purple air and spiritual energy.
While Bai Qianqian was sitting in the sedan chair and thinking about this, she keenly sensed a strange aura when passing by Xiang Tian.
"stop."
A weak but tender voice came, and Xiang Tianxia, who was standing aside with his head bowed to make way, frowned consciously.
Sure enough, the moment the sedan stopped, Bai Qianqian's slightly pale face emerged from the sedan and fell directly on him.
"It's you." Bai Qianqian was a little surprised when she saw Xiang Tian's appearance.
Xiang Tian felt that this greeting was inexplicably incongruous, but before he could think about it, he heard Bai Qianqian in the sedan chair continue, "Since we have met, please come back to Lianrui Palace with me and have a seat."
The frown on Xiang Tian's brows deepened, but he was still a eunuch, so it was impossible for him to do anything out of line.
He lowered his head and frowned, and said in a calm voice, "I have an errand to do right now. If the Lady Lian Fei has something to do, why not ask another palace maid to do it for you?"
The letter that day had already made him certain that Bai Qianqian had discovered his "betrayal", so there was no need for him to pretend too much in front of her.
He was too lazy to pretend with this man anymore.
Bai Qianqian seemed to smile when she heard his words, and the palace maid standing beside her frowned and spoke at the right time.
"How dare you! When the queen speaks, there is no reason for a servant like you to refute her!"
Xiang Tian frowned and was about to refuse, but he heard Bai Qianqian's voice coming from the sedan again. It was an ethereal voice that sounded like it came from the sea, carrying a bit of irresistible temptation.
"Follow me."
Xiang Tian felt as if his mind was blank for a moment, as if he had forgotten to think. In a trance, his feet had already followed her voice and moved forward with the sedan chair.
When he came to his senses, he was already standing in the side hall of Lianrui Palace, while Bai Qianqian was leaning on a small kang with a snow-white blanket on her knees. Her eyes were moving over him, as if with some interest in exploration.
After a long while, he spoke quietly.
"I didn't realize last time I saw you that you had a different smell..."
It was the taste she wanted.
