Chapter 353 What Are You Crazy About?
After hearing what Xie Zhili said, Yu Qinghuan thought, why didn't Xiao Jinghe call Xie Zhili away as well?
"Cheng Gongjin was poisoned before, and only Xiao Jinghe has the antidote."
Xie Zhili understood and felt even more upset. He asked why she had to go to the palace suddenly. It turned out that it was to save Cheng Gongjin.
"If I were the one who was poisoned, would you ask Xiao Jinghe for me?"
Yu Qinghuan turned around and left, not wanting to bother with Xie Zhili. She also didn't like making such assumptions, it was meaningless.
Xie Zhili saw her leaving and immediately followed her. He grabbed her wrist and said pitifully, "You haven't answered me yet. If I were the one poisoned, would you save me?"
Yu Qinghuan struggled to get free but failed. Feeling helpless, she simply followed his wishes and said, "Yes, I will definitely save you."
Although the tone sounded a bit perfunctory, Xie Zhili was a relatively easy-to-please person. After hearing this, he felt relieved, but he began to ask, "What did Du Yunxiao say to you about the incident at Fuyan Tower just now?"
Thinking back to how Yu Qinghuan's ears turned red when she heard Du Yunxiao's words, he couldn't help but take it seriously.
This woman is not the type to be shy easily. Du Yunxiao probably said something shameless.
Yu Qinghuan stopped walking immediately, "Why are you talking so much?"
Xie Zhili felt sour when he heard this, "You never used to dislike me for being too talkative. Why, now that Du Yunxiao is with you, you're impatient to even listen to a single question I ask?"
Yu Qinghuan was stunned for a moment. Why did these words sound so resentful?
Xie Zhili continued: "That's right, his skill in appreciating flowers is no less than mine, so you naturally protect him. You always give him a few words of advice after he leaves, for fear that Xiao Jinghe will kill him."
The more he talked, the more unhappy he felt. He even felt a little regretful that he had dragged Yu Qinghuan into this mess. Now that she had learned a little from him, she was dragging others into this mess.
Thinking of this, he opened his thin lips and uttered, "It's true that I only hear the laughter of the new people, but never see the tears of the old ones, huh."
Yu Qinghuan felt guilty, but appeared confident and righteous. "What newcomer or oldcomer? If you can't speak, then don't speak."
Xie Zhili: "Oh, now you won't even let me speak."
This sour tone makes people laugh and cry.
Yu Qinghuan: "...you should stop now."
As she said that, she shook off Xie Zhili's hand and strode back towards her backyard.
However, Xie Zhili didn't want to stop at all. He had been busy these days and hadn't even seen her. If he continued to stop, he was afraid that he wouldn't even be able to get a number with her.
He quickly caught up with Yu Qinghuan, grabbed her waist and dragged her behind the rockery.
My back rested against the cold rock, but a hot breath hit my face.
Yu Qinghuan curled her lips: "What are you crazy about?"
Xie Zhili's fingertips rubbed her slightly swollen lips, and his voice was hoarse: "Why am I crazy? Don't you know?"
The moonlight was hazy, and the night wind blew past, ruffling the hem of her skirt. The sound of the wind made her blush and her heart beat faster.
The next day, Xie Zhili left before dawn and didn't even have time to eat breakfast.
When Yu Qinghuan stood up, her back and waist ached, and her legs were shaking when she walked. She could only call Sang Ru to come over and give her a couple of back massages.
Seeing the marks on her waist, Sang Ru couldn't help but ask, "Miss, are you really going to the palace today?"
Yu Qinghuan nodded, "Send someone to the Cheng Mansion to inform them, so that Cheng Gongjin won't be unable to find me and go back to the palace to cause trouble."
Sang Ru: "Miss, do you want to tell the young master?"
Yu Qinghuan hesitated for a moment, remembering that Mu Huaian had said he would personally escort her to the palace. "Just tell him that he doesn't have to send me off. If he's free, he can come pick me up on the day I leave the palace."
Sang Ru: "Okay."
...
Before the people sent by Sang Ru arrived at Cheng Mansion, Cheng Gongjin had already learned the news that Yu Qinghuan had entered the palace. Daying and Xiaoying were observing his reaction.
Xiaoying asked tentatively, "Master, can you arrange for someone to go into the palace and rescue Madam Yu..."
Cheng Gongjin said calmly, "No need, just have someone keep an eye on her and protect her."
Xiaoying was stunned. He thought the master would immediately order people to go into the palace to rescue Madam Yu, but why did he just send people to keep an eye on her? Isn’t the master worried that Madam Yu would not come out after entering the palace?
The big shadow standing beside him was also a little surprised.
Cheng Gongjin lowered his eyes to look at the book in his hand. Since Yu Qinghuan had agreed to wait for four days with Xiao Jinghe, he would wait for four days.
If Xiao Jinghe doesn't release her after four days, it won't be too late to go to the palace to pick her up.
At this time, Yu Qinghuan had already entered the palace and was arranged to live back in the bedroom where she had lived before. The furnishings were the same as before and had not been moved much. Even the palace servants who served her had not changed, including Cheng Gongjin's spy, the palace maid Caizhi.
She immediately asked Sang Ru to find Caizhi to inquire about Du Yunxiao. She didn't know what happened to this man after he entered the palace last night. She hoped that nothing would happen.
I originally thought that Xiao Jinghe was busy and I wouldn't see him until at least the evening, but he showed up at lunchtime.
Xiao Jinghe only brought one eunuch with him, and did not allow anyone to pass on the message when he entered the hall.
Just as Yu Qinghuan picked up her chopsticks and prepared to eat, she saw the palace servants in the hall kneeling together, "Your Majesty."
She immediately stood up and was about to bow, but was supported by Xiao Jinghe. "I said before that when it's just you and me, there's no need for these empty formalities."
Yu Qinghuan nodded, "Your Majesty, have you had your meal yet?"
Xiao Jinghe had actually used it, but when Yu Qinghuan asked, he thought about eating some with her so he could stay longer. "Not yet."
Yu Qinghuan immediately took his hand and said with a smile, "Then Your Majesty, will you eat with me?"
Xiao Jinghe was originally upset because of what happened to Du Yunxiao last night, but now seeing the person in front of him smiling, he felt much more relieved, "Okay."
As the two of them were having their meal, Xiao Jinghe would pick up some dishes for Yu Qinghuan from time to time, all of which were her favorites.
Even if Yu Qinghuan wanted to ask a few questions about Du Yunxiao, it was not easy to open her mouth at this moment. Even if Xiao Jinghe was easy to coax, it depended on the situation.
It’s better to wait for Sang Ru to come back.
This lunch lasted for half an hour until the eunuch came to report that two court officials wanted to see him for important matters. Xiao Jinghe then stood up and rubbed Yu Qinghuan's head before leaving. "Don't be restrained in the palace. I'll come back to find you later. If you need anything, you can also come to me. No one dares to stop you."
Yu Qinghuan nodded and watched Xiao Jinghe leave.
At this time, Sang Ru came back and brought the news that Caizhi had found out.
"Miss, General Du entered the palace last night and stood outside His Majesty's bedroom all night."
Yu Qinghuan was surprised, "Only stood there for one night?"
Nothing else?
She thought that Xiao Jinghe would call the man into the palace and at least question him, and maybe even punish him with a few sticks.
Sang Ru nodded. It was a bit strange that His Majesty didn't even see him, but just let him stand there. "I heard that General Du hasn't left the palace yet and is still standing."
Yu Qinghuan: "......"
Xiao Jinghe didn't fight, this was pure torture.
