Chapter 264 Xiaojiu is jealous! She is the only one he can marry!

Chunxi didn't know what Qin Xiao was thinking. She just wanted to leave with the young lady as soon as possible to prevent Qin Xiao from recognizing her as the little brother they were talking about.

Shen Chuwei didn't expect this. She turned around to look at Concubine Xu and Tao Chenghui, and when she saw that they had both come down, she continued walking forward.

Tao Chenghui stared at the lotus in Shen Chuwei's hand and said, "Shen Liang Di, the lotus needs to be kept in water, so that it can last longer."

Shen Chu lowered her eyes and looked at the water lily. The petals were so tender that she didn't dare to touch them forcefully. "I thought so too. I hope I can keep them for a month."

Qin Xiao kept his eyes on Chunxi. He saw that she was acting suspiciously and had been with the prince for a long time, so she became particularly alert.

He took a few steps forward to stop Chunxi and said coldly, "Stop right there."

Chunxi was frightened because of her guilty conscience and subconsciously leaned into Shen Chuwei's arms, screaming in her heart, "Don't recognize me, otherwise I'm done for."

Shen Chu raised his eyes slightly and looked at Qin Xiao in confusion, "Guard Qin, what are you doing?"

This was the first time Qin Xiao looked at Shen Chuwei directly. He had never looked at her directly before, nor did he dare to look at her directly, because Shen Chuwei was his master's woman, and looking at her directly would be disrespectful.

After seeing this, he was stunned.

He really looks like Brother Shen, but he seems a little shorter.

It's rare for siblings to look so similar.

When Shen Chuwei wore men's clothes, she put height-increasing pads in her boots, making her seven centimeters taller than usual.

Qin Xiao reacted and pointed at Chunxi and said, "Shen Liangdi, she is sneaky and there is something wrong with her."

Shen Chuwei glanced down at Chunxi, only to see that she kept her head down. Suddenly, she remembered the incident of a woman dressed as a man. Chunxi was afraid of being recognized by Qin Xiao.

She looked at Qin Xiao righteously, "What was she doing sneaky?"

Qin Xiao was stunned for a moment. It was so obvious, but Shen Chuwei couldn't see it?

He clasped his hands together and said, "I am suspicious. Shen Liang Di should be more careful."

"I understand. Guard Qin, don't worry!" Shen Chuwei said, and then took Chunxi away.

Qin Xiao stared at Chunxi for a long time, and only looked away when they were out of his sight.

When Wei Chi walked over, he saw Qin Xiao staring at the girl with a look full of reluctance.

He stepped forward and patted Qin Xiao's shoulder vigorously, "What's wrong? Are you attracted to that girl?"

Qin Xiao glared at Wei Chi, "What nonsense are you talking about? I just think she is a little suspicious, with her head down, looking guilty."

Wei Chi nodded in appreciation, "That's right, you've accepted the token of love from your brother, you can't just give up on it."

Qin Xiao cursed, "What token of love? Don't talk nonsense!"

Wei Chi said as if he understood everything. "I saw it all. Don't pretend. You were holding the handkerchief in the middle of the night and thinking of someone."

Qin Xiao was completely confused, he had clearly dropped the handkerchief accidentally and had no way of returning it. He saw it when he came back from the toilet in the middle of the night and picked it up. How could this be considered as a reminder of someone?

If Xiao Jinyan hadn't come this way, Qin Xiao would have beaten Wei Chi up and made him talk nonsense.

On the way back, Chunxi patted his chest and said, "My lady, I was almost recognized by Qin Xiao just now. He is so fierce."

Shen Chuwei explained: "He is His Highness' personal bodyguard, so he is naturally different from ordinary people and has a high level of vigilance. Don't you know whether he is fierce or not?"

Chunxi recalled the last time she went out, when Qin Xiao helped her on the road. Actually, he wasn't that fierce.

"Yeah, it does look fierce sometimes."

Back in the Hehuan Palace, Shen Chuwei asked Chunxi to bring the fish tank, then put the lotus in it, and then took out the spiritual spring water from the space and put it into the fish tank.

Water lilies nourished by spiritual spring water will bloom better and longer.

At night, when Xiao Jinyan came, he saw the water lilies in the fish tank on the low table. The water lilies were twin lotuses with two colors, which could be said to be rare in a thousand years.

He came and sat on the couch, looking at Shen Chuwei, "You went to Taiye Lake today, why don't you come to see me?"

Shen Chuwei said: "I am afraid of disturbing Your Highness."

Xiao Jinyan frowned, "Why do you have such an idea?"

Shen Chuwei pointed to the two two-colored lotus flowers in the fish tank and said, "I picked the twin lotus flowers."

Xiao Jinyan stared at Shen Chuwei with her eyes fixed, and said in a pause, "I don't want to accompany Princess Xueyan to visit Taiye Lake with her. Today is arranged by my mother... Xiaojiu, do you understand?"

Shen Chuwei lay on the coffee table, looking at the water lilies in the fish tank and listening to Xiao Jinyan's explanation.

Xiao Jinyan didn't get a response, and he couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable. He called out softly, "Xiaojiu?"

Shen Chu raised his eyes slightly and looked at Xiao Jinyan, "Your Highness, it is better to keep some distance from her."

Xiao Jinyan's eyes froze when he heard this, then his brows suddenly relaxed, "Xiao Jiu, are you jealous?"

Shen Chuwei said seriously: "I am not jealous. I just ate dumplings two days ago and I don't want to eat dumplings these two days."

Xiao Jinyan certainly knew this, as he had a mouth full of vinegar when he ate dumplings two days ago.

"I didn't mean to dip dumplings in vinegar."

Shen Chuwei tilted his head and asked seriously, "What kind of vinegar is your highness talking about? White vinegar?"

Xiao Jinyan said helplessly: "It's not white vinegar either."

"Then I don't know, dumplings are best eaten with aged vinegar." After Shen Chuwei said this, she suddenly wanted to eat dumplings again.

Xiao Jinyan: "...Why do you only know how to eat?"

Shen Chuwei said with a clear conscience, "Food is the most important thing for people. If they don't have a meal, they will be hungry."

Xiao Jinyan shook his head helplessly.

After Lu Zhaoyan returned to the palace, he was called over by the emperor.

In the study, the emperor sat on the dragon throne.

The emperor said, "My dear Lord Lu, I intend to have Princess Xueyan marry the crown prince and make her his consort. Can you calculate my fortune and tell me which day would be the most suitable?"

Lu Zhaoyan lowered his brows and nodded: "Your Majesty, I need some time to observe the stars at night before I can accurately calculate your fortune."

The emperor still trusted Lu Zhaoyan more. He nodded and said, "Then I will give you two days. After two days, give me a reply."

Lu Zhaoyan: "I obey your command."

While I was observing the stars at night, Xiao Jinyan came.

"how?"

Lu Zhaoyan said helplessly: "Your Highness, the Emperor only gave me two days."

Xiao Jinyan: "Then you can do whatever you want. Don't let me down."

Lu Zhaoyan looked embarrassed, "Your Highness, this is a bit difficult to deal with. If Princess Xueyan clashes with you, I'm afraid it will cause dissatisfaction in the Xueyue Kingdom."

Xiao Jinyan was silent for a long time, then uttered, "The Crown Princess cannot be her."

This is Xiao Jinyan's bottom line. The Crown Princess must be Shen Chuwei, and he can only marry Xiaojiu.

Shen Chuwei spent three days to make the sachet. There was a smile embroidered on the sachet. It was not a smile of death, but a very naughty smile.

Stuffed inside was a packet of sedative medicine that she had prepared herself, which helped with sleeping.

During dinner, Xiao Jinyan came.
