Chapter 976 His senior sister, he will protect her!
As soon as Yimei arrived at Yunxiu Palace, she couldn't help but stretch her neck and look around.
She is curious about everything here.
Xiao Xixi: "Zhezhi, take the third princess around and familiarize her with the environment."
Zhezhi: "Yes."
After Zhezhi and Yimei left, Luo Qinghan took Xixi back to the bedroom.
Xixi didn’t take a nap at noon, and now she feels a little tired and wants to take a nap.
She was stripped of her coat and crawled into bed, but her eyes were still on Luo Qinghan.
"How's the interrogation of the thief we caught last night going?"
Luo Qinghan said slowly.
“That guy has confessed.
He is indeed a habitual thief. All the things on his stall were stolen by him.
According to him, he stole the sachet from a jade merchant.
He also stole some silver and banknotes, all of which he spent.
Based on the thief's description, the painter has drawn the appearance of the jade merchant.
The guards sent the portrait to the King of England's palace, and both the doorman and the butler said that the man in the portrait was the jade merchant who had been to the palace before.
Xiao Xixi: "It's the same person indeed."
Luo Qinghan: "I have ordered people to follow the clues provided by this thief. It will take some time to get results."
He touched Xixi's head, his eyes gentle and calm.
"Go to sleep and wait for me to have dinner with you tonight."
Xiao Xixi grabbed his sleeve and said, "Why don't you ask me why you want to keep the third princess in the palace?"
Luo Qinghan held her hand, bent down and kissed the back of her hand, and whispered.
"If you want to tell me, you will tell me even if I don't ask. If you don't want to tell me, then I won't ask. Anyway, no matter what you do, I will always stand by your side."
Just like you'll always be by my side.
Xiao Xixi smiled, and sweet dimples appeared at the corners of her mouth.
"I actually really think she's very interesting, that's why I kept her in the palace."
Luo Qinghan leaned over and kissed her on the lips: "As long as you like it, anything is fine."
…
Zhezhi took Yimei out.
When passing through the courtyard, they met Chu Jian who was on guard.
Chu Jian knew that this woman was the third princess of the Thousand Islands Kingdom, and that she was the one who came to snatch a man from his senior sister.
He gripped the hilt of the sword tightly, frowned slightly, and stared at Yi Mei coldly, as if he wanted to stab this woman to death with his eyes.
Yi Mei noticed that someone was looking at her. She followed her feeling and looked over, and her gaze met Chu Jian's.
She was slightly stunned, then frowned slightly, looking very unhappy.
What's wrong with this guard? Why is he staring at her?
Even if she is as beautiful as a flower, he shouldn't do this. It's really rude!
If it were in the palace of the Thousand Islands, and a guard dared to stare at her like that, she would definitely teach him a lesson.
But this was in the palace of the Great Sheng Dynasty, and she was new here and hadn't yet found her feet, so it was difficult for her to act out.
I can only bear with it for now.
When she becomes the empress of the Great Sheng Dynasty in the future, let’s see how she will deal with this rude guard!
Yimei snorted lightly, turned her head away, and stopped looking at the guard.
Zhezhi took Yimei on a tour of Yunxiu Palace.
At first, Yimei just thought that the palace was slightly beautiful. It was not until she saw the large vegetable garden, orchard, and fields in the backyard that she suddenly realized that her knowledge was too shallow!
She had seen countless exotic flowers and plants, as well as men and women with all kinds of strange hobbies.
But it was the first time she saw a concubine growing vegetables in the palace!
What was even more unbelievable to her was that the emperor actually allowed the concubine to grow vegetables in his palace!
What kind of emperor and concubine are they?
What kind of palace is this?
Perhaps it was because she had suffered too much stimulation in succession, so when Yimei returned to the room, she felt a little dazed.
Zhezhi said respectfully, "This is the guest room prepared for you. If you have no other instructions, please have a good rest."
Yi Mei came back to her senses and asked hurriedly, "Where are the emperor and the concubine?"
Zhezhi didn't understand what Qiandaoguo said and looked at her blankly.
Yimei could only use her hands to gesture to her.
Zhezhi guessed and understood what she meant, and replied.
"The Imperial Concubine is resting. Your Majesty has gone to the Council Hall."
Yi Mei asked suspiciously, "Why is the imperial concubine resting in broad daylight?"
Zhezhi didn't understand and could only use a smile to hide his embarrassment.
Yi Mei waved her hands in frustration: "Forget it, go away."
This time Zhezhi understood what she meant and bowed respectfully.
After Zhezhi left, Yimei sat alone in the house, feeling very bored.
She couldn't help but push the door open and tried to sneak out.
As a result, as soon as he went out, he ran into Chu Jian standing in the corridor.
Chu Jian looked at her coldly, his eyes full of vigilance and hostility, as if he was looking at a thief who had broken into his territory.
However, Yimei felt that the guard must be coveting her beauty, so he kept staring at her.
She couldn't help but frown and said with disgust.
"Don't look at me like that."
Chu Jian sneered. He had to keep an eye on her to prevent her from doing anything bad when no one was paying attention.
Yi Mei was annoyed when she saw that he was still staring at her, but she was too disdainful to argue with a guard. In the end, she could only go back to the room and close the door angrily.
Xiao Xixi slept soundly.
When she woke up, it was already dark.
Baoqin helped her change clothes and wash.
Xiao Xixi asked while yawning.
"How is the third princess?"
Baoqin said truthfully, "She has been staying in her room."
Xiao Xixi was quite surprised: "Why is she so honest?"
Based on her understanding of the girl, she would definitely find ways to cause trouble.
Baoqin pursed her lips and smiled: "Chu Jian has been keeping an eye on her and not giving her the chance to mess around."
Xiao Xixi suddenly realized: "So that's how it is."
After washing up, she walked out of the bedroom with Baoqin's help, and immediately saw Chu Jian standing upright in the courtyard.
Chu Jian was wearing a scarlet jade-scale robe, standing with a sword in his arms. He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and a handsome appearance. When he didn't speak, he had the unrestrained temperament of a young knight.
When he saw his senior sister coming out, he immediately put on a silly smile, smiling like a fool.
Xiao Xixi sighed.
Alas, what a waste of his good looks.
She waved at Chu Jian, motioning him to come over.
Chu Jian ran quickly to her.
Xiao Xixi: "You must be tired after standing all day, go back and rest."
Chu Jian: "I'm not tired."
Senior sister's illness has not yet been cured, and the third princess might take the opportunity to harm her. He must stay in the palace to protect her.
His heart is full of a sense of mission and responsibility.
He is the one who protects his senior sister!
Xiao Xixi: "You have been standing all day, and now it's dark. You should take turns with others. Staying up late will make you bald. Think about Mei Fuyin of Jingzhao Prefecture, who is bald at a young age. Do you want to become like him?"
Chu Jian was immediately frightened and broke out in a cold sweat. He hurriedly shook his head and said, "No!"
Xiao Xixi looked at him with eyes full of pity: "Then go back. You must cherish the opportunity to go to bed early. Many people who want to go to bed early don't have this opportunity."
…
Good morning everyone!
Prefect Mei: Thank you, I am offended.
……
As we all know, anyone who stays with Xixi for a long time will eventually become Xi-ized.
Please give me a monthly ticket~~~
