After Gao married the prince, the sick and weak concubine lost her horse

Chapter 204 Chapter 204

Sheng Tingye turned to look at Shen Qingci.

He didn't answer Shen Qingci's question directly, but instead asked her: "Wangfei, do you remember that this king worked in Dali Temple before."

How could Shen Qingci forget.

At the beginning, this guy pretended to be Lin Yue, but it made her suffer a lot.

At this time, remind her that this level of identity is...

As soon as Shen Qingci raised his head, he met Sheng Tingye's bottomless eyes.

"Does the princess think that I will use public affairs for personal gain?"

His expression was cold and fair, and his tone was not the slightest bit warm.

It sounds like that is the case.

But if Shen Qingci hadn't fought against him, and he had deliberately slandered the pear hairpin on her head in order to take her away, she would have believed it.

Seeing Shen Qingci's eyes, Sheng Tingye also thought of this.

He couldn't help chuckling, and said without hesitation: "At the beginning, I was just teasing you."

Hearing this, Shen Qingci's face darkened even more.

Cat and mouse games are funny, but not funny if she is the mouse.

Co-authoring, where she was fleeing to death, was it a joy in his eyes?

Shen Qingci turned his head a little depressed.

I didn't want to deal with this person for the time being.

And with this person's indifferent personality, he wouldn't take the initiative to talk to her.

She was ready for the two of them to return to the palace in silence all the way.

Unexpectedly, the next moment her shoulders were held down.

Sheng Tingye carefully avoided her shoulder injury and turned her body over.

The black mist in his eyes dissipated, and there was a little more emotion that Shen Qingci couldn't understand.

"I'm only talking about the hairpin, as for the others..."

Speaking of this, he paused: "It is really suspicious that you appeared on the grave at that time. In all fairness, if you were me instead, how would you deal with it?"

"And, later on, you kept lying and running away again and again, which made people feel more and more suspicious. What would you do?"

Hearing this, Shen Qingci shrank his neck subconsciously.

If it were her... she would try her best to catch this suspicious person!

What's more, Sheng Tingye's suspicion was correct.

She appeared on the grave with a purpose.

At this moment, the distance between the two of them was extremely close, and under his gaze, Shen Qingci felt even more guilty.

"Feel sorry."

She lowered her head subconsciously, a little embarrassed to look into Sheng Tingye's eyes.

But in the next moment, his chin was lifted by his fingers, and Shen Qingci was forced to meet his eyes.

"I don't want your apology."

Sheng Tingye raised his finger slightly.

The touch of the fingertips is delicate and moist, and the delicate face of hibiscus under the palm is breathtakingly beautiful.

It is clearly close at hand and within easy reach, but it seems to be separated by mountains and seas.

You can't ask for it, you can't touch it, and this heart may not be his.

The sharp pain in the chest became stronger and stronger.

Even hooking her chin, the fingertips connected to her skin were painful.

Sheng Tingye endured the pain and tried his best to look at Shen Qingci with a normal expression.

"Is there a king in my heart?"

These words almost exhausted his mental strength.

At that moment, Sheng Tingye was betting on himself.

But what he didn't know was that these words really shocked Shen Qingci.

The promised superficial couple were just acting for the queen, so why did this question suddenly arise?
Why did he ask such a question?
How should she answer?
At this moment, Shen Qingci's heart beat like thunder.

She suppressed her somewhat messy emotions, and said tentatively, "Your Highness wants to hear the truth?"

Unexpectedly, when the words fell, Sheng Tingye's eyes suddenly darkened.

He let go of his hand suddenly.

After avoiding her for a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Needless to say, this king already knows."

If it was Xinyue, how could he see hesitation and doubt in her eyes.

This answer, do not listen worth mentioning.

Shen Qingci who was suddenly put aside without knowing it: "???"

What does he know? ?
She moved her lips, thinking about how to speak to break the deadlock, but the carriage stopped at this moment.

Sheng Tingye got up and got out of the carriage.

Shen Qingci felt that even his back was showing indifference and alienation, and he couldn't figure out why this person became more and more uncertain?

However, although this incident caused Shen Qingci quite a headache, he also confirmed another important matter from the conversation with him just now.

According to Sheng Tingye, he will take a fair stand on the affairs of the Wang family in Qingzhou.

Will not follow the queen's wishes.

As long as her grandfather really didn't do anything...

With this answer, the stone hanging in Shen Qingci's heart was finally dropped to the ground.

When Sheng Tingye returned to the mansion, people spread the news that Princess Ning was seriously ill and closed the door to thank guests.

Shen Qingci asked Qiuyun to go quietly out of the palace to give Qin Jiaojiao a message.

She didn't care about other people, and she didn't care, but she was afraid that Qin Jiaojiao and Mrs. Qin would worry.

It was known outside that she had a good relationship with Qin Jiaojiao and had frequent contacts. If she was "seriously ill", Qin Jiaojiao would have to cover her up.

This girl seemed careless, but she was also very careful and reliable, Shen Qingci was not worried that the news would leak from her.

The rest is just an excuse to Chunya and the others.

This journey was to be done in secret, and since it was an investigation, there would inevitably be times of danger, so it was obviously inconvenient to bring Chunya, who was not good at martial arts.

Shen Qingci originally wanted to take Qiu Yun and Qiu Shui with him.

Unexpectedly, Nanny Gui brought someone here.

"Princess, this girl is the niece of the maidservant, her name is Ting Lan, and she knows some kung fu. The queen empress is worried about the safety of the concubine, so she specially appointed her to protect the concubine."

Shen Qingci's heart turned cold.

I thought that if I could get rid of Nanny Gui, at least I would be free.

This is good, even though Nanny Gui couldn't walk away, she stuffed another Tinglan for her.

However, after thinking about it, Shen Qingci felt that it was not that surprising.

How could the queen be willing to let go of her pawn.

Shen Qingci looked at this girl, she should be about the same age as her, with Liu Yemei's oval face, she seemed to be well-behaved and docile.

However, how could the person arranged by the queen be a simple person.

However, she couldn't help but refuse.

Moreover, without Ting Lan, even if she arrived in Qingzhou, she might not know how to "connect" with the person arranged by the queen.

It is of course more reassuring to keep the "enemy" under the nose.

Shen Qingci responded with a smile: "Nurse Gui has a heart."

"Such a well-behaved child, Nanny Gui is also willing."

Seeing her being so polite, Nanny Gui looked at her with more satisfaction, she bowed and said, "It's the job of servants to do errands for the empress and the princess."

"Don't look at Tinglan's young age, my concubine, but she has a calm temper. If there is a need, just tell her to do it."

There is something in the latter sentence, how could Shen Qingci not hear it.

She nodded, sent the two of them away, and called Chun Ya Qiu Yun Qiu Shui and the other three.

"In the next few days, I will go to the Xiaoqi camp with the prince."

With Qiuniang's lesson first, and also fearing that they would be tricked into talking about them if they were not paying attention, Shen Qingci did not tell the truth.

"I don't know if I have to stay for ten days and half a month. The Empress arranged for Ting Lan to accompany me, so you will cover me up at home and tell the outside world that I am seriously ill and need to recuperate. Thank you behind closed doors."

As soon as Shen Qingci finished speaking, Chunya's eyes turned red.

"Miss, don't you even bring your slaves?"

She lowered her head and said aggrievedly: "Miss has never been away from slaves, Ting Lan just came here, how can she fully understand Miss's preferences, in case she doesn't take good care of her..."

"Besides... this servant is reluctant to part with Miss."

Shen Qingci sighed, "Silly girl, it's only been a few days, why are you crying?"

As soon as the words fell, Chunya shook her head and repeatedly denied, "It's not a matter of a few days, but this slave feels that..."

I feel that the young lady has suddenly alienated her.

He used to talk to her about everything, and if he wanted to take a maid with him wherever he went, he must take her with him.

But in the past few days, Chun Ya obviously felt a little different.

Even after going out for so long this time, he didn't want to take her with him.

Chunya couldn't say the following words, she was so wronged that she shed tears.

Shen Qingci stood up and patted her on the shoulder: "I've been too busy these days, so I left you out in the cold. Do you blame me in your heart?"

Chunya shook her head like a rattle.

Shen Qingci coaxed softly: "No matter what happens to the later generations, you are the only one here with me, so don't try to get sidetracked."

"The reason why I didn't take you with me is because I trust you and want you to take care of my house and guard the palace for me."

"I'm not worried about others."

With that said, Shen Qingci turned his head and glanced at Qiuyun Qiushui, "You too."

The three maids responded quickly, and Chunya stopped crying this time, and when she came back, her eyes were still red, but her face was already full of joy.

"Miss, don't worry, this servant will take good care of her!"

Shen Qingci nodded, and then sent them away.

She originally wanted to pick Qiuyun Qiushui, but because of Ting Lan's joining, she temporarily changed her mind.

I thought I would leave early the next morning, but I never thought that Sheng Tingye's work efficiency was too high.

It was only after dinner that day, and Shen Qingci was about to wash up, when Qingyun suddenly told him: The carriage is ready and ready to go.

Shen Qingci: "..."

She originally wanted to pack a few salutes, but Qing Yun shook her head: "Everything is ready, the princess can go out after packing."

With that said, Qing Yun, who was standing at the door, handed over a burden to Chun Ya.

When I opened it, I found a set of pale pink cross-neck skirts. The style was not much different from what she usually wears, but it was just an ordinary cotton material.

Presumably it was to hide his identity.

Without saying a word, Shen Qingci went into the inner room to change, and put his hair back into a bun, with only two hairpins stuck on it.

After tidying up, Shen Qingci followed Qing Yun out of the inner courtyard.

Sure enough, there was a carriage parked at the rear corner door.

Sheng Tingye was already waiting in the carriage.

Even if he took off the expensive brocade, this ordinary black cotton suit is worn directly on his body, it still does not reduce his temperament and dignity like Yushu Zhilan, not to mention, there is a little bit of the usual coldness in his gestures. Cutting, a little more refined.

"My lord."

Shen Qingci sat down next to him.

The carriage is covered with thick fox fur, and there is a small table in the middle, on which there is a Mrs. Tang and some books.

Shen Qingci just sat down, feeling warm in his arms.

The hot Tang Pozi was handed over.

Shen Qingci turned her head to look, he still had that indifferent look on his face, if it wasn't for the two of them in the carriage, she would have suspected that Mrs Tang was not from him.

Shen Qingci lowered his eyes and was about to say thank you, but then he thought that this person seemed unwilling to hear words like thank you from her.

His mind was as deep as the sea.

Shen Qingci became more and more unpredictable, and he didn't want to break this peace, so he endured it.

With a squeak of wheels, he left the alley and walked out of the city in the dark.
