Su Yuecheng was stunned. He knew that she was joking with him on purpose, but he thought she was really cute.
Especially when I think about what Duan Sijin said when he was joking with me, the more I think about it, the more regretful I feel.
If I had known earlier, I would have taken the initiative. Since he was going to be married anyway, it would be better for him to find someone he liked.
It’s a pity that the emperor has already spoken. Unless something major happens in the future, he is afraid that he will not have this opportunity again.
Su Yuecheng didn't dare to say too much to Duan Qingxi, fearing that it would bring trouble to her, so he found an excuse to leave the palace.
Helian Cheng pretended to go and talk to Zuo Xinya.
Helian Yun couldn't bear to see this, so he walked forward with an angry look on his face.
Seeing this, Helian Cheng laughed and teased, "Fifth brother, I'm talking to my future princess. What do you want to do by coming up here in such a threatening manner?"
After a pause, he looked at Duan Qingxi and said, "Your princess is over there!"
Duan Qingxi just happened to hear this, turned around and looked, just in time to meet Helian Yun's poisonous eyes.
Duan Qingxi was already in a bad mood after being assigned a marriage, so he didn't bother to pay attention to him. He rolled his eyes and walked away.
Helian Cheng suddenly found it very interesting. You know, it is really rare to see someone who dares to roll his eyes at Helian Yun like this!
Helian Yun was also very angry, but at this moment he had no intention of paying attention to Duan Qingxi. Instead, he looked at Helian Cheng and said, "You'd better treat her well, otherwise... I will never let you go!"
After saying that, he glanced at Zuo Xinya, showing an expression that showed he had his own difficulties and was helpless, uncomfortable and reluctant to leave her, then he left.
When Zuo Xinya agreed to marry Helian Cheng, she had already resigned herself to her fate. Now that she was in front of Helian Cheng, she didn't dare to say anything more.
She just lowered her head and looked very sad, as if Helian Cheng had forced her to bully him.
Helian Cheng suddenly felt bored and didn't bother to pay attention to her. He found an excuse and left.
…
Duan Qingxi searched the palace for a long time before he found out that the queen was resting in her bedroom.
As soon as he walked over, he was stopped by the maid outside the door.
"How dare you! Who are you? Do you know where this place is?!"
Duan Qingxi smiled politely and said, "Sister Palace Maid, I was sent by... the Ninth Prince. Please pass the message on."
As she spoke, she handed the jade pendant in her hand to the palace maid to see.
The palace maid was not the one who served the queen personally, so she had no idea of Duan Qingxi's identity, and she could not recognize the jade pendant.
But when he heard the Ninth Prince's name, he didn't dare to delay and said, "Then you wait here for a while. I will go in and inform the Queen."
As she said that, she walked in.
Not long after, it came out.
"Girl, the Queen has summoned you to come in, come with me quickly."
"Okay, thank you, Palace Maid Sister."
Being called sister, the palace maid was quite happy. In addition, Duan Qingxi had some relationship with the Ninth Prince, so the palace maid tried to please him deliberately, and her expression was much better than before.
When the Queen saw that the visitor was Duan Qingxi, she was very surprised. She never thought that her cold and aloof son would be so close to a rich lady!
However, she did not show anything on the surface. After Duan Qingxi saluted her, she called the person to her side.
Duan Qingxi also obediently walked forward and sat down next to the Queen.
The Queen looked at her and asked softly, "How come you are Sheng'er's? You and he..."
Could this girl be her son's woman?
If that's the case, then why marry her to Helian Cheng?
Duan Qingxi smiled and said, "This servant and the Ninth Prince should be considered friends."
"friend?"
These two words carry so much meaning that the Queen couldn't guess what kind of friends they were.
However, she didn't ask that many questions.
