As soon as Jiangmen Jiaojiao opened her eyes, she was paranoid that the prince had come to steal her

Chapter 232
"Stop!" Yun Qi's expression changed and he shouted in a low voice.

However, the guard took action too quickly and could not hold back.

Yun Qi didn't have time to think about it and grabbed the sword blade.

At the same time, the brocade quilt on the bed flew up and directly covered the guard's door.

The prince's eyes flashed as a figure rolled out from the brocade quilt.

The guard's sword pierced the quilt, and cotton wool flew all over the room.

A man in a dark red outfit pounced on Yun Qi, and the two of them rolled into a ball on the ground before stopping when they reached a bookcase not far away.

The cotton wool and brocade quilt rags gradually fell to the ground.

Yun Qi held the woman with disheveled hair in his arms and asked anxiously: "Are you injured?"

"No..." Xie Zhaozhao responded in a low voice, helped Yun Qi stand up, and saluted the prince: "I have met His Royal Highness."

After the prince waved his personal guard to retreat, he looked at Xie Zhaozhao and narrowed his eyes: "When did you come?"

"Just now..."

Xie Zhaozhao's face was sullen, as if he had been raped. He bit the bullet and threw out an explanation that was not an explanation: "I heard that His Highness King Dingxi was injured and was very worried, so I came here——"

"Oh."

The prince raised his eyebrows: "Where did you hear that?"

"From Imperial Physician Lu." Xie Zhaozhao responded sharply and said, "Zhaozhao has already performed the apprenticeship ceremony for Mr. Lu, and he is Zhaozhao's master."

"That's it." The prince nodded, waved to the guards and Lin Ye and others who came in to check the situation to exit, turned around and sat at the table, "Xie Zhaozhao, come here."

"Yes."

Xie Zhaozhao lowered his eyes and stepped forward.

Yun Qi frowned and said, "Father, you——"

"Don't worry, I'm just asking a few words." Perhaps because Yun Qi was an eyesore, the prince waved his hand and said, "You go out first."

Yun Qi: "..."

"Get out." The prince urged, "Wait outside."

Yun Qi had no choice but to withdraw.

When closing the door, I glanced at the prince a few more times.

The prince looked calm.

Snap, the door panel closed.

The prince looked at Xie Zhaozhao for a moment and said calmly: "Weren't you so disgusted with Yun Qi before? Why are you concerned about his injury now?"

"In the past few years, there were some misunderstandings between Yun Qi and I...and His Highness, so the relationship was a bit tense." Xie Zhaozhao lowered his eyes and replied in a gentle voice: "Over the past year or so, we have gradually resolved the misunderstanding."

"I see, Yun Qi said, it was you who advised him to repair his relationship with Gu and take good care of Gu's body?"

"This..." Xie Zhaozhao said hesitantly: "I mentioned it once or twice, but His Highness King Dingxi is the biological child of His Highness the Crown Prince. He has always cared about His Highness in his heart, and also wants to enjoy a father-son relationship with His Highness."

"The two words mentioned by my minister are actually insignificant... His Highness the Crown Prince must understand him. If he is not thinking about it himself, it is useless for anyone to mention it."

The prince laughed and said, "That's right. He is a ruthless man with a bad temper and a tough temper. Unless he is willing, no one can force him to do anything. It is the same for everything, including the person he likes and his marriage. .”

"You and Yun Qi are very good."

The prince glanced at Xie Zhaozhao and said in a gentle tone, "It's just that now is not the time to grant a marriage, so you should just be good. When the time comes, I will let Yun Qi marry you and become the orphan's daughter-in-law."

Xie Zhaozhao couldn't say anything, so he just remained silent.

The prince stood up and went out.

Xie Zhaozhao breathed a sigh of relief, and Yun Qi came in from the outside. The smile on his face could be said to be a proud one: "I heard it, he recognized you." Xie Zhaozhao said, "Why are you eavesdropping?"

"I'm not at ease." Yun Qi said matter-of-factly: "Aren't you afraid that he will embarrass you? After all, you are breaking into the East Palace privately. You don't know good people."

Xie Zhaozhao rolled his eyes at Yun Qi, and while looking for his hair tie among the cotton wadding on the floor, he said, "It's busy outside now, do you want to go out?"

"Of course it is."

Yun Qi pulled Xie Zhaozhao up: "Stop looking for it. It was cut off by Yan Li. I'll find a crown for you."

He pulled Xie Zhaozhao to a box next to the bed and rummaged through it twice, finding a small and exquisite white jade crown, and casually handed Xie Zhaozhao a black hair tie.

Xie Zhaozhao was silent for a moment, then used the black hairband to tie his hair into a bun and put on the exquisite white jade crown.

Yun Qi commented: "He's very heroic, not to mention pretty good-looking."

"gone!"

Xie Zhaozhao stopped talking nonsense to him, turned around and went out.

Yun Qi took two quick steps and held her wrist, "Just wait for me for a while. What's the rush?"

……

The two of them went out from the corner gate of the East Palace and walked directly to the lively main street in front of them without ordering the carriage to be prepared.

Hongxiu saw that Xie Zhaozhao had changed her hair crown, but she was sure that everything was safe, so she didn't ask anything. She and Lin Ye who followed Yun Qi followed the two masters from a distance.

Yun Qi led Xie Zhaozhao through the crowd, bought a few novel enamel dolls from a stall under the overpass, and then found a tea shed with fewer people to sit down.

"It is bitterly cold in the northwest, and it is not so lively during the Chinese New Year." Yun Qi said with emotion, "However, although there are few people, it is cold, and the wind and sand are strong, it has its own kind of scenery that this holy capital city does not have."

"I'll take you to see me sometime."

"Okay." Xie Zhaozhao can't say that he yearns for the yellow sand of the Gobi, but he is always curious.

The two chatted for a while, and Xie Zhaozhao reiterated his old words: "What's going on? Why did His Highness hit you? You told half of it at that time."

Yun Qi propped up his chin with one hand and smiled lazily: "I'll tell you the one with a nice scream."

"..."

Xie Zhaozhao was speechless for a moment, "Forget it if you don't say it!"

As expected, Yun Qi stopped talking and asked the old man at the tea shed to serve two bowls of crude tea and drank it slowly.

He waited for Xie Zhaozhao to be unable to hold back his curiosity.

Unexpectedly, after the bowl of coarse tea was finished, Xie Zhaozhao started drinking it without any intention of questioning.

Yun Qi felt bored, frowned and said, "Can't you give me a step up?"

"I think you deserve a beating. You don't deserve steps at all." Xie Zhaozhao rolled his eyes at him and thought to himself: This man is obviously a sky monkey. He can climb to the top with a pole, but you still have to coax him to beg. The kind he came down with.

But if you ignore him and make him look bad, he will just blink and smile playfully.

Yun Qi muttered something about the fierce old woman, but this time he stopped holding it and said slowly: "The main reason for my fifty-ridged staff is that the East Palace has not had any children in these years."

Xie Zhaozhao's heart skipped a beat, "Is it the prince's body... or is it something else?"

In the previous life, the East Palace was sparsely populated. Later, the prince died suddenly. There were vague rumors that the prince had been injured and his roots were damaged, so... he could no longer have children.

This news came out after the prince's death and spread in a small area for some time.

It's just that the prince had passed away at that time, so it didn't cause any big fluctuations.

However, Xie Zhaozhao always felt that there was something fishy in it.

The prince did indeed accompany Emperor Xuanwu on his expeditions in the north and south, and was injured, but most of them were minor injuries. His identity was there, and he was surrounded by generals who were guarding him when he went on an expedition. If he really suffered that kind of injury, there would be no news at all.
