Chapter 64: Marry Me to Repay a Favor

"Master, the Ninth Princess seems to be following us, and she is almost here." Ye Huai said expressionlessly.

Lu Qingyu and He Junxuan looked at each other, both a little confused.

Why did He Junya follow them?
"Ye Huai, go and bring Xiaojiu over." He Junxuan said.

Ye Huai took the order and flew out of the yard.

"Your Highness, I have never had the chance to ask Junya what she saw in Supin's Yuehe Palace that day."

He Junxuan nodded, "Today is a good opportunity."

Lu Qingyu glanced at He Junxuan hesitantly, "It's just that the Queen Mother once told me not to investigate further."

He Junxuan's eyes narrowed slightly. It seemed that the Empress Dowager knew some inside information.

The corners of He Junxuan's eyes curved in an evil way, and a faint light flickered in his dark pupils, sparkling in the sunlight.

"We were just chatting with Xiaojiu, not investigating the cause of the poisoning of the Imperial Grandmother."

Lu Qingyu was slightly stunned.

She didn't know that He Junxuan would also find a way to exploit such a loophole.

And what he just said seemed to be
The corners of Lu Qingyu's mouth lifted involuntarily, "Your Highness just said us, right?"

He Junxuan's eyes paused for a moment before returning to the girl's cold and beautiful face.

"Miss Lu, are you dissatisfied? I remember that Miss Lu once said she wanted to marry me."

Although He Junxuan's words were straightforward, one could hear a hint of temptation in them.

Lu Qingyu raised her head and looked straight into He Junxuan's phoenix eyes, with only honesty and seriousness in her eyes.

"Every word I said to Your Highness is true, without a single lie. As long as Your Highness nods, I am willing to marry you at any time."

He Junxuan's eyes gradually became deep, and mottled light and shadows kept jumping and changing in his eyes.

"Are you marrying me to repay me for my kindness in rushing into the dungeon to save you in your previous life, or is there some other reason?" He Junxuan's voice was cool.

This question made Lu Qingyu suddenly stunned. She was stumped because she had never thought about the answer carefully.

In her previous life, she was on the verge of death, but someone rushed into the dungeon for her, hugged her body and said sorry, he was too late.

Shouldn't she repay this man?
But He Junxuan was right. Did she want to marry him just to repay his kindness?
His temples began to throb again, and strands of pain slowly expanded and contracted along his meridians. Lu Qingyu tightly closed his eyelids which were somewhat spasmodic.

There must be something she forgot.

Looking at Lu Qingyu's painful expression, He Junxuan also felt as if his heart was pricked by a needle, hurting for no reason.

Just as the two of them maintained an eerie silence, Ye Huai finally jumped back into the yard with the Ninth Princess He Junya in his arms.

As soon as Ye Huai put He Junya down, the little girl ran over and threw herself into Lu Qingyu's arms.

"Sister! Junya misses you so much. I haven't visited Junya for a long time." There was surprise in the clear child's voice, but also a little bit of resentment.

He Junya hugged Lu Qingyu's thighs tightly and buried her round little head deeply in Lu Qingyu's robe.

When Ye Huai saw this scene, the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

This little girl was as hard as a rock when she was in his arms, not moving at all.

As a result, when she ran to Lu Qingyu, it seemed that the little girl wanted to hang on Lu Qingyu like a sloth.

It’s true that people are more likely to die than others.

Ye Huai sighed in his heart, turned around and jumped onto the tree again.

The pain gradually subsided, and Lu Qingyu picked up He Junya with a smile on his face. "Junya, have you been listening to your grandmother these days?"

He Junya nodded vigorously, "Yes, Junya will be obedient."

Seeing the little girl's emotions gradually calm down, Lu Qingyu glanced at He Junxuan and then said, "Then why did Junya follow me and your eighth brother?"

He Junya's little face suddenly wrinkled up, like a little bun, extremely cute.

"Sister Junya has something that has been on her mind for a long time." He Junya sniffed, her eyes wandering, with a hint of suppressed fear in them.

Lu Qingyu's eyes suddenly condensed, and her expression became serious, "Junya, you can tell me anything, I'm always here."

He Junya's fingers tightly grasped the corner of Lu Qingyu's clothes, and she hesitated for a long time before slowly speaking.

"That's right. I was hiding in Madam Su's palace, wanting to play hide-and-seek with Kaka, but I saw Madam Su and..."

He Junya's voice suddenly stopped and her body began to tremble uncontrollably.

Lu Qingyu could feel that He Junya must know the person that Su Bin met, otherwise her reaction would not be so strong.

Lu Qingyu did not urge her, but just held He Junya quietly and rocked her gently, as if coaxing a child to sleep.

It took a long time for He Junya to calm down.

"Yes, it's father, he is with Empress Su." He Junya stammered in a low voice.

This time, Lu Qingyu, He Junxuan, and Ye Huai on the tree were all stunned.

This answer caught everyone by surprise.

Emperor Tianwu had a deep relationship with the Empress Dowager and was extremely filial to her, paying his respects to her every day.

how come.
"Junya, what did your father and Empress Su say?" Lu Qingyu asked.

"Father talked a lot with Empress Su, but Junya didn't understand. But, Junya remembered what Empress Su said."

He Junya swallowed her saliva, "She said that it was the Emperor who asked her to poison the Empress Dowager, and she also said something about Thousand Insect Powder."

As soon as the word "Qianchong Powder" was uttered, Lu Qingyu's heart completely sank.

If it was a coincidence that Emperor Tianwu appeared in Concubine Su's palace before, then Qianchong Powder was the poison that the Queen Mother was poisoned with.

Children may lie, but it is almost impossible for autistic children like He Junya to lie.

In other words, Your Majesty wants to kill the Queen Mother.
It took He Junxuan a long time to digest this hard-to-accept news.

If His Majesty wanted to kill the Queen Mother, then all the strange things that happened before would make sense.

After all, the Empress Dowager's health was checked regularly by a special imperial physician, and no one had found any problems.

Such a long-term and large-scale project would be difficult to carry out smoothly if it was only done by Concubine Su without the emperor's order.

He Junxuan's eyes were chillingly cold, and a hint of chill emanated from the surroundings.

He had lost any affection for his father, the emperor, as early as the death of his mother.

The death of his biological mother might have been caused by a difficult childbirth, but He Junxuan knew clearly about the death of his adoptive mother.
It’s a man-made disaster.

He has been investigating over the years, and some extremely secret clues point to that person in a high position.

He Junxuan suddenly felt a chill all over his body.

The emperor who rules the world is a devil.
