"Princess Ning."

"I haven't seen you for several months, and you have become very haggard. I have heard about Prince Ning, but I never thought that a person like Prince Ning could..."

"However, there were only rumors before, and the saint has never given an explanation. I think things will turn around."

"The saint thinks so highly of Prince Ning that he must have sent people to find him. Princess Ning must take care of herself."

As she spoke, Yun Bin's eyes turned red and she had already stepped forward and took Shen Qingci's hand.

Shen Qingci's brows were indeed tired and haggard, but it was because of traveling day and night. If he looked sad, he was a general of the Qin Dynasty.

But these words cannot be said.

The imperial garden is not small, but at this moment, there are already countless people watching around.

Not only Yun Bin, but all forces want to see clues from Shen Qingci's attitude to confirm whether Sheng Tingye is alive or dead.

After all, the story that King Ning was hit by an arrow and fell into the river was only spread by people who came back from Qingzhou, and the saint never expressed his position on this.

Don't blame them for being unable to sit still.

If Sheng Tingye was fine and there was a turmoil in the court, it would be impossible for him to sit still at such a critical moment, let alone disappear for such a long time.

But if Sheng Tingye is really dead, even if his body is not found, a tomb should be erected for him, and the funeral in Prince Ning's Mansion should be organized.

But the saint pressed it but did not send it out.

What is the mystery here, how can everyone feel at ease.

It's hard to see through the authenticity of the emotions in Yun Bin's eyes, but when it comes to acting, Shen Qingci prides himself on not losing to anyone.

With red eyes, she lowered her head and said, "Well, he will be fine. He wants to see people alive, but wants to die..."

She couldn't say the next words, and tears were already welling up in her eyes.

Yun Bin hurriedly comforted her a few words, and moved closer to warn her: "There are eye spies everywhere in this palace. Princess Ning must be careful."

"Today is not the time to talk. I will invite Princess Ning to my palace another day."

Shen Qingci nodded.

Sheng Tingyi still held the hem of her skirt and refused to let go. Shen Qingci looked at Yun Bin helplessly.

Yun Bin persuaded her from the side and finally pulled Xiaotuanzi off Shen Qingci.

"Third sister-in-law, will third brother come back?"

Just when Shen Qingci turned to leave, the childish Sheng Tingyi suddenly tilted his head and asked curiously: "They said that the third brother will not come back, did the third brother go far away?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Yun Bin quickly covered Sheng Tingyi's mouth and said, "Xiaojiu! Don't talk nonsense!"

Yun Bin quickly apologized to Shen Qingci.

Shen Qing said it was okay.

She sighed softly, raised her hand to rub the top of Sheng Tingyi's hair, and choked with sobs: "Your third brother will be back."

Sheng Tingyi wanted to say something else, but was dragged down by Yun Bin.

As if she was afraid that Sheng Tingyi would say something again, she quickly apologized to Shen Qingci, took Sheng Tingyi's hand and turned around quickly to leave.

After they left, Shen Qingci also turned and left the Royal Garden.

Sheng Tingye was not that fast.

Moreover, their carriage was not noticeable when they arrived, but now because her identity has been exposed, her every word and deed is being watched secretly.

Of course, we can't wait for Sheng Tingye outside the palace gate.

Shen Qingci was not worried that he would find a chance to sneak out on his own.

Right now she was worried about something else.

Although Lin Yunzheng was seriously injured, none of his injuries were serious. The news that came back said that he was recovering from his injuries and was not seriously injured.Now Shen Qingci is most worried about Qin Jiaojiao.

She was already on good terms with Qin Jiaojiao, so it made sense for her to go to the Qin Mansion to visit Qin Jiaojiao after something happened to the Qin family.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked out of the palace gate, she was stopped by the Wang family's carriage.

Sheng Tingye had already told her about it before, and Shen Qingci was not surprised.

But she didn't expect that the person who came to take her to the palace would be Wang Taifu's granddaughter, Wang Yujiao.

Taifu Wang, Wang Zhaokun, is the head of the Wang family, the head of the four major families, and the mentor and father-in-law of the current saint.

The maternal grandfather of Sheng Tingye and Sheng Tingzhao.

And this Wang Yujiao is said to have been raised by Wang Zhaokun since she was a child, and she is his most favored granddaughter.

Earlier, there were even many rumors that Wang Yujiao was the fifth prince concubine selected by the Wang family for Sheng Tingzhao.

However, no one mentioned this rumor again after Qin Jiaojiao returned to Beijing and the queen intended to facilitate the marriage between Qin Jiaojiao and Sheng Tingzhao.

The girl on the carriage has green silk hair with pearls and eight treasures of colored glaze on the top of her hair. She is wearing a pale pink fairy skirt, and she is very bright and beautiful.

Even though she didn't say anything and just sat there quietly, there was an arrogant and cold air about her that was hard to get close to.

Shen Qingci had no contact with her before, he only had a glimpse at the banquet from a distance, but he didn't know this girl well.

"Princess Ning."

The maid next to her opened the curtain, and Wang Yujiao, who was sitting in the carriage, turned her head slightly and looked at Shen Qingci who was about to get on the carriage and leave.

"My grandfather invited Princess Ning to visit the house for a chat."

"I wonder if Princess Ning can give me a favor?"

Hearing this, Shen Qingci was heartbroken.

What Wang Yujiao said was interesting.

Sheng Tingye also happens to be the third among the many grandsons of the Wang family.

Ordinarily, Wang Yujiao should call her "third cousin sister-in-law."

She just politely called her Princess Ning, but she actually said "my grandfather" as soon as she opened her mouth. The first two words were added to her words. No matter how careless the other party was, they could hear the alienation and rejection in her words.

Since Shen Qingci is married to Sheng Tingye, who is the grandson-in-law of the Wang family, she is at least a member of the Wang family.

But when Wang Yujiao opened her mouth, she wanted to draw a line with her.

This is not an invitation, this is clearly here to give her a blow and slap her in the face.

Shen Qingci raised his chin slightly, and said with a bit of indifference in his eyes: "Taifu Wang is highly respected, and I am lucky to be invited by him. However, my body is too weak, and I am afraid that I can only lift this breath with great difficulty. I am really afraid that the momentum of the Wang family, which has been a century-old family, will be undermined."

"Isn't it bad luck for Miss Yujiao?"

This sentence struck a chord in Wang Yujiao's mind, causing her originally cold and aloof expression to change slightly.

However, what surprised Shen Qingci was that when he saw that she was about to leave, Wang Yujiao could quickly put down her body, got off the carriage herself and stood up to greet Shen Qingci.

"It was Yujiao's inappropriate words and deeds just now, and I ask Princess Ning to forgive her."

"Grandfather really has something important to do, so please ask Concubine Ning to show her face."

When she said these words, she stood bent on the spot, her waist straight, and her lowered eyes covered her original cold and disdainful expression. It really looked like she had put down her body and apologized sincerely.

Being able to endure it so quickly made Shen Qingci couldn't help but look at her more.

She doesn't have a good impression of the Wang family, but she really should go to the Wang family.

Therefore, without asking Wang Yujiao to wait too long, Shen Qingci raised his hand and said, "Let's go then." (End of Chapter)
