Chapter 363 Wait and See
Xiao Xixi blinked: "You looked at me too."
Luo Yechen: "Where did I look at you?"
Xiao Xixi: "If you didn't look at me, how would you know I was looking at you?"
Luo Yechen: “…”
It is well-reasoned, logically complete and irrefutable.
Luo Yechen became even angrier, glaring at him with eyes that were about to spit fire: "What's wrong with me looking at you? I think you're giving me face!"
Xiao Xixi turned around, hugged the prince's arm, and acted like a little bird: "Your Highness, I am yours, but the eldest prince is staring at me. Does he have any hidden thoughts about me?"
Luo Qinghan looked at Luo Yechen coldly.
"What do you want to do to my beloved concubine?"
Luo Yechen was almost suffocated by this couple.
He roared angrily, "What can I do to her? I just looked at her twice more!!"
Luo Qinghan: "She is my beloved concubine, what qualifications do you have to look at her?"
Luo Yechen: "I'm your brother, don't I even have the right to look at her?!"
"No."
Luo Yechen: “…”
He really couldn't bear it anymore and rushed out howling.
He didn't stop until he ran a long way away. He hammered the old poplar tree next to him, and at the same time he didn't forget to curse and swear at the couple!
…
inside the house.
Xiao Xixi was still leaning on the prince. She looked up at him and asked.
"Will the eldest prince be driven mad by anger?"
Luo Qinghan said calmly: "No, he's used to it."
Xiao Xixi: "That's good."
Qiu Sheng, who was sitting nearby and watching silently, couldn't help but complain in his heart, the eldest prince has actually gotten used to it, how many times has he been pissed off to develop this habit? !
Xiao Xixi sat up straighter, turned to look at Qiu Sheng, and asked curiously.
"Have you resolved the issue between you and Young-hee?"
Qiu Sheng answered truthfully: "It has been resolved. Thank you for your concern, Prince and Queen."
Xiao Xixi asked again: "How did you solve it?"
Anyway, the Crown Prince and Concubine Xiao already knew almost everything about this matter, and Qiu Sheng felt that there was no need to hide it any longer, so he simply recounted the conversation between him and his father.
Xiao Xixi: "Prince Chenliu is quite good to you."
Qiu Sheng scratched his head embarrassedly: "Although father is a little partial to my second brother, he is not bad to me."
Luo Qinghan asked: "How is the condition of Prince Chenliu now?"
Qiu Sheng sighed, "It's still the same. He has to take medicine every day and have the doctor give him acupuncture, but his condition has not improved."
Luo Qinghan: "When you go back today, you will probably find that the people around you have changed."
Qiu Sheng was stunned, not understanding what the prince meant.
Luo Qinghan: "The reason why Rong Ji plotted against you is because there are people around you who are spying on you. The King of Chenliu should have guessed this. To be on the safe side, he will definitely clean up all the people around you so that you won't be plotted against again."
This is like preferring to kill three thousand people by mistake rather than letting one go.
Qiu Sheng suddenly realized: "So that's how it is."
Luo Qinghan: "When you go back, you don't need to ask anything. Just pretend nothing happened. Do what you have to do and wait and see what happens."
Qiu Sheng didn't quite understand: "Is this matter not over yet?"
"Yongji is just a pawn in the hands of others. The real person behind the scenes has not yet appeared. There must be a follow-up to this matter. You should be careful."
Qiu Sheng couldn't help but get nervous when he heard what he said.
Qiu Sheng asked cautiously, "Your Highness, do you know who is behind this?"
Luo Qinghan did not answer but asked: "What do you think?"
"I don't know."
Luo Qinghan: "You are the third son of the Chenliu Palace. You should know more about the complicated relationships in the palace than I do. Someone wants to use Rong Ji to ruin your reputation. It's because you are blocking someone else's way. Think about it yourself, whose way are you blocking?"
Qiu Sheng opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, nothing came out and he could only smile bitterly.
He stood up and bowed respectfully.
"Thank you for your advice, Your Highness. I will take my leave now."
Xiao Xixi looked at Qiu Sheng's leaving back and felt a little desolate and lonely.
She couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness, could it be that the one who plotted against Qiu Sheng was one of the eldest or second sons?"
Luo Qinghan: "Yeah."
Xiao Xixi: "Does the Prince of Chenliu know this?"
"He is such a cunning man, he must have guessed this at the first time, so he had people send Rongji away quietly and tried to minimize the impact of this incident."
Although Prince Chenliu favors his second son, the eldest and youngest sons are also his biological sons. He would feel heartbroken no matter which one he gives up.
Xiao Xixi yawned lazily: "It's such a small palace, but there are so many things to do. When can we go back?"
Luo Qinghan: "Once the mausoleum of my mother is built, we will go back."
…
After Qiu Sheng returned to the palace, he found that all the servants around him had been replaced.
He remembered the prince's instructions and asked no questions. He ate and drank as usual, as if nothing had happened. At the same time, he secretly raised his vigilance to prevent being tricked again.
He went to find Prince Chenliu and told his father that he had been sent by the crown prince to supervise the construction of the mausoleum.
Prince Chenliu was quite surprised by this.
"When did you become so close to the prince?"
Qiu Sheng answered truthfully: "It was because of the prince's suggestion that I dared to tell you the truth about Rong Ji. I think the prince is a good person, so I want to do something for him."
Having said this, he looked at his father anxiously, fearing that his father would show opposition.
Prince Chenliu said with emotion: "It's good for you to do this. Instead of focusing on internal struggles, you should take a long-term view. The outside world may be more suitable for you than the palace. You should follow the prince well and don't let him be disappointed in you."
Qiu Sheng was overjoyed and quickly responded, "I will try my best. I won't let my father and the prince down!"
After Qiu Sheng left, the chief steward came in with medicine and served Prince Chenliu to drink it.
Prince Chenliu frowned, endured the bitterness, and drank the medicine in the bowl in one breath.
He asked, "How is the investigation into Young-ji going?"
The chief steward replied respectfully, "I have interrogated everyone around Rong Ji one by one, and some people said that Rong Ji had been very close to the maidservant next to the second young master not long ago."
Prince Chenliu closed his eyes.
"Go call Lei over here."
"Yes."
Qiu Lei was competing in martial arts in the training ground at that moment. When he learned that his father was calling him, he immediately rode back to the palace and rushed into Changshengju in a hurry.
Unlike his eldest brother and third brother, he was not as cautious and careful in front of their father. As soon as he entered the room, he sat down beside the bed, and his voice was a little breathless because he ran too fast.
"Father, do you have something to ask me?"
