Chapter 235: The popular prince was abandoned~
Xiao Jinyan ate the mutton with doubts, and then heard Concubine Xu's inner thoughts.
His Highness was not feeling comfortable at all. He couldn't eat properly and had to sit in the middle, so he couldn't chat casually with Shen Chuwei.
Why!
Xiao Jinyan: “…” Am I redundant?
He glanced at Concubine Xu coldly and said, "You are the redundant one."
Concubine Xu Ce felt an inexplicable chill on her back. She raised her head in confusion. There was no wind today!
Shen Chuwei was eating with relish when she suddenly felt her legs feel heavy. She lowered her head and saw Xuetuan looking up at her. There were only three words in those deep blue eyes: I want to eat.
Shen Chuwei was not stingy with Xuetuan either. She picked up a piece of mutton and fed it to Xuetuan.
After eating the roasted whole lamb, Xu Cefei took out a handkerchief to wipe her mouth, then raised her eyes to look at Xiao Jinyan and found that he was drinking tea from a cup.
I thought, we have finished eating, why hasn’t His Highness left yet?
I also want to have a private conversation with Shen Chuwei!
Your Highness, it's such a nuisance to have you here!
Xiao Jinyan paused in drinking tea, glanced coldly at Xu Cefei, and said, "You've finished eating, you can leave too."
Then I heard Concubine Xu say, "Your Highness is really so busy at ordinary times that you can hardly see him. Why are you so idle now? Is it because the emperor has given you too few tasks?"
The Emperor should also give Your Highness more tasks to do so that he can gain more experience.
Xiao Jinyan took two sips of tea to calm his rising blood pressure.
I am busy as a dog every day, and I come to Hehuan Palace to take a break from the busy schedule.
You actually said he was too idle?
Shen Chuwei drank tea to get rid of the greasiness and let out a puzzled sound in her heart. She found that Concubine Xu, who usually talked non-stop when she came to Hehuan Palace, was unusually quiet today.
It is estimated that Concubine Xu remained silent because Xiao Jinyan was around.
What Shen Chuwei didn't know was that although Concubine Xu didn't say it, she never stopped complaining in her heart, and the target of her complaints was the popular Xiao Jinyan.
No one would believe it if I told them.
When Xiao Jinyan heard Shen Chuwei's words, he looked down and saw Xuetuan eating mutton. No wonder he suddenly heard Shen Chuwei's inner thoughts.
It was also at this time that Xiao Jinyan knew that Concubine Xu was always a chatterbox every time she came to Hehuan Palace!
Xiao Jinyan took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Does Concubine Xu have anything to do?"
The implication of chasing people away is obvious.
Concubine Xu, on the other hand, did not think much about it. She thought that she was in the Hehuan Palace, not the prince's bedroom, so she would not bother anyone.
"Your Highness, I have nothing to do."
Xiao Jinyan's face was gloomy.
Shen Chuwei fed another piece of mutton to Xuetuan, raised her head and looked at Xiao Jinyan, always feeling that the atmosphere today was a little strange.
Concubine Xu picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and suddenly asked, "Your Highness, aren't you busy? Don't worry that Shen Liangdi will have no one to accompany her. I can chat with Shen Liangdi."
I couldn't help but shout in my heart, Your Highness, please go and get busy!
This was the first time Xiao Jinyan was chased away in the Hehuan Palace, so he naturally felt a little unhappy.
Shen Chuwei paused while stroking the cat, and inexplicably felt an undercurrent surge, and if she was not careful, she would be in danger of being affected~
In the end, it was Liu Xi who called Xiao Jinyan away.
The moment Xiao Jinyan stood up, he heard Concubine Xu cheering for joy. His Highness has finally left. I can finally chat with Shen Chuwei casually, haha!
Before leaving, Xiao Jinyan glanced coldly at Concubine Xu, then walked out of the Hehuan Palace.
Concubine Xu lowered her head and did not notice the extremely impatient expression Xiao Jinyan gave her. Anyway, she was very happy at the moment.
She excitedly grabbed Shen Chuwei's hand and said, "His Highness finally left. I thought he was going to stay and not leave."
Xiao Jinyan, who had just walked to the door, heard it and walked out of the Hehuan Hall with a sullen face.
Shen Chuwei looked at the overly excited Xu Cefei with a puzzled look on her face, "What's wrong? Why are you so excited?"
"Of course I'm excited.
Concubine Xu's voice explained how excited she was at the moment, "Chang Liangdi was not made the Crown Princess, and was demoted to Liangyuan, two ranks lower than me. How can I not be excited?"
Shen Chuwei was bewildered. She only knew that the appointment of the Crown Princess had been cancelled.
"What on earth is going on?"
Concubine Xu sighed and said, "Shen Liang Di, I find that you are a lucky star."
Shen Chuwei was even more confused, "Can you grasp the main point? How did I become a lucky star?"
Concubine Xu's voice was still very excited. "Didn't you say yesterday that you would ask Doctor Zhao Yu to take my pulse? Do you know who ordered Doctor Zhao Yu to come?"
Without waiting for Shen Chuwei to answer, Concubine Xu said, "It was Chang Liang Di who did it. If it weren't for your suggestion yesterday, His Highness would not have been able to find out the truth, and Chang Liang Di would have become the Crown Princess smoothly."
After Concubine Xu finished speaking, she smiled smugly, "Wasn't she so arrogant before? Let's see how I will confront her from now on."
Shen Chuwei knew why Concubine Xu was so excited. It was probably because Chang Liangdi could not climb over Concubine Xu's head, so Concubine Xu could confront her without any scruples.
No wonder Concubine Xu couldn't help it as soon as Xiao Jinyan left.
After Xiao Jinyan finished handling the matter, he asked Liu Xi to call Lu Zhaoyan over.
Lu Zhaoyan also saw the famous scene today. Chang Liangdi cannot become the Crown Princess. Xiao Jinyan should be in a good mood at the moment.
When he approached the study, he saw Xiao Jinyan. As he expected, Xiao Jinyan's brows were relaxed, and it was obvious that he was in a good mood.
Lu Zhaoyan stepped forward and bowed, "Your Highness, what is the matter that you have summoned me for?"
Xiao Jinyan snorted coldly: "I think your position as the chief supervisor of Qintian Prison is no longer secure."
Lu Zhaoyan was confused, "What do you mean by that, Your Highness?"
Xiao Jinyan said: "It's hard to predict who the Crown Princess will be. Do you think you can keep your position as the Chief Supervisor of the Qintian Prison?"
Lu Zhaoyan smiled and said, "Your Highness has misunderstood. Didn't I tell you that you don't need to stop it by force? Everything is destined."
Xiao Jinyan immediately heard the hidden meaning in his words and raised his eyebrows: "So, you already knew that the ceremony of enthroning the Crown Princess could not be held?"
Lu Zhaoyan smiled wryly: "It is somewhat true, and this also proves that Chang Liangdi is not the destined one for your Highness."
Xiao Jinyan asked coldly, "Why don't you say it?"
Lu Zhaoyan explained: "Your Highness, sometimes speaking out can backfire."
Xiao Jinyan pondered for a while. If Lu Zhaoyan had told him in advance, he would not be so anxious and would not stay up all night to investigate the case of false pregnancy to win favor.
Then there would be a possibility of missing the opportunity, which would also mean missing the opportunity to expose Chang Liangdi's crimes.
After Xiao Jinyan figured it out, he stopped making things difficult for Lu Zhaoyan, "You do have some truth in what you said."
This time it was all thanks to Xiaojiu, because it was she who decided to let Dr. Zhao Yu come to check my pulse yesterday, which led to a series of chain reactions.
Lu Zhaoyan was somewhat proud because he deliberately did not make it clear that day.
He suddenly remembered something, "By the way, Your Highness, I want to read Shen Liang Di's palm."
Because he didn't see it clearly last time, he has always been curious whether Shen Chuwei is Xiao Jinyan's destined person.
