Fengming Chen Palace

Chapter 771
"Don't be nervous, I have no malice towards you, and I have never deliberately investigated you."

Seeing that Chang Xi's complexion was not very good, Xiao Duo quickly explained, "There is a long story among them, if you have time, I will tell you."

Among the few remaining people, Xiao Duo was at the front. If Chang Xi wanted to spare time to listen to his stories, he had to dismiss the people behind him first.

After thinking about it, Chang Xi asked him to wait aside and met the remaining two.

Naturally, as before, they were all picked on by Chang Xi and then dismissed.

Marriage is a matter of a lifetime, and such things as fate cannot be forced.

Although they were dismissed, those who were dismissed would not feel dissatisfied with Chang Xi because of this.

His Majesty issued an order to find a husband and son-in-law for Chang Xi, the female official around him. Anyone who feels that he meets the conditions and doesn't care about being dismissed can participate.

Since they chose to participate, they all know the conditions, and of course there will be no dissatisfaction after being dismissed.

If there is, it is to express dissatisfaction with His Majesty, and no one has dared to do so.

"Okay, they're all gone, you can talk now." Returning to Xiao Duo, Chang Xi said.

"I'm afraid it's inappropriate to be here? If you can leave the palace, let's find a quiet teahouse and talk about it?" Looking around, Xiao Duo responded.

Chang Xi thought for a while, and ordered a palace servant to report to Chang Le, and then she left the palace with Xiao Duo.

Chang Le received the reply from the palace man, and with a sly smile in her smile, she waved her hand to let the palace man go down.

"That Xiao Duo, what's going on?" Hearing the secret guard's report before, Jing An saw that Chang Le was smiling a little strangely, and it was the same this time.

Having been with Changle and his wife for several years, Jing An knew her temperament very well, so he reckoned that there was something wrong with it.

"Perhaps that Xiao Duo can finally embrace the beauty." Hearing Jing An's question, Chang Le pulled him to sit down and told him about Xiao Duo.

"Back then, I took Chang Xi on a trip to the palace. I met a few people in a town. At that time, their young master fell ill."

"At that time, I didn't want to care about it. After all, it was just illness, not a serious problem. Looking at them, they looked like they came from a big family. This small problem should not be solved."

"Maybe it was something that touched Chang Xi. She insisted on taking care of it. I had no choice but to help."

"Afterwards, I inquired that it was from the Xiao family. You should know that there are only a few families in Daxing that can be called the Xiao family. They have imprints related to the family, so I know it is the Xiao family. Which Xiao family."

"Their son is well. Chang Xi felt relieved and said a few words to him. Afterwards, we left, and I forgot about this matter."

"Unexpectedly, that incident was something that the young master of the Xiao family would never forget. He tried his best to find out our identities and who Chang Xi was."

"So, in the previous general election in the court, he secretly hid it from his family, came to the capital, won No.1, and entered the court as an official."

"At that time, I didn't know about it. Later, when I asked him to go to the imperial study to give orders, his eyes always followed Chang Xi. When Chang Xi was not around, he would ask me about Chang Xi thing."

"After I checked, I found out that he was the one who meddled Chang Xi's affairs back then. He came to the capital for Chang Xi's sake."

"So, consciously or not, I would reveal to him some things related to Chang Xi, and he really took it to heart. He found Chang Xi's favorite score and the Guqin he wanted."

"Presumably, the meeting on the street a few days ago was not accidental. He deliberately lured Chang Xi to his home and looked at his things. As for choosing a son-in-law... it was not him before, but another person."

"But that person gave him the quota, which surprised me. I checked and found that he used some tricks. Now, he has taken Chang Xiying out of the palace again. It depends on him whether he can get the beauty back. It's up to me."

Chang Le knew all these things clearly, and she didn't get in the way, because she knew everything about Xiao Duo.

She wanted Chang Xi to be happy. Obviously, this Xiao Duo liked Chang Xi, and he liked it very much, that's why he put in so much effort. If that's the case, it's okay to make it happen.

"So that's how it is." After hearing Chang Le's words, Jing An suddenly realized that there was something wrong with it before, but now it seems that it has nothing to do with Chang Le.

"What's the matter? Are you jealous?" Seeing Jing An's appearance, Chang Le asked with a smile. Jing An blinked, but did not answer, but his ears turned red.

…………

Outside the palace, Xiao Duo found a place and sat down with Chang Xi.

This is a tea house. There is a private room on the second floor, which is quite quiet and convenient for talking.

After ordering refreshments, Xiao Duo sat across from Chang Xi, and Chang Xi looked at him, waiting for him to speak.

When the tea was served, the waiter withdrew, leaving the room to the two of them. Chang Xi raised his eyebrows, and before he could speak, he heard Xiao Duo's voice.

From their acquaintance to the previous meeting, he explained it in detail, Chang Xi was a little surprised, she had long forgotten about it.

"It's been so many years, I'm afraid you don't remember it long ago?" Just by looking at Chang Xi's expression, you can tell what she's thinking.

"But it's okay, I still remember, and I can tell you. I didn't investigate your affairs, but I don't deny that I asked His Majesty about it."

"Your Majesty didn't hide anything. He told me some things. So, I found those music scores and Guqin specially for you. You couldn't find them because I took the first step."

The people in Changxi's trust are capable, but the Xiao family is a big family, so it's quite easy to check things.

Basically, it was he who found and obtained the things, and the people from Chang Xituo had clues, so they always came to nothing.

Chang Xi sat across from Xiao Duo, listening to him talking to herself, although she didn't have much emotion on her face, her heart was in a mess.

I never thought that someone would spend so much time because of themselves.

What's more, I didn't expect that the unintentional move at the beginning would lead to today's matter.

"Actually... I was not the one who participated in the selection of the son-in-law. It seems that His Majesty did it on purpose. After I found out, I bribed one of them, and he gave me the spot."

After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Duo said everything, "I know, you were picky before and eliminated a lot of people, can you... can you give me a chance?"

For this day, Xiao Duo waited for many years, he can understand Chang Xi's thoughts.

"I know what you are worried about. Don't worry, I will never interfere with you. Whether you are willing to continue to follow His Majesty or continue to be in the court, the big deal is that I will be behind you and be your pillar."

There is another sentence in the back, Xiao Duo didn't say, "If possible, he is willing to retreat behind her like Jing An, so that she will have no worries".
