The Empress Dowager

Chapter 585 Worry
Chu Li looked at Nangong Yue's delicate and elegant face, smiled, and said, "You took my jade pendant into the city, of course I know."

"So, you knew about it last night?" Nangong Yue asked.

Chu Li nodded, if they hadn't watched closely, he would have come out a long time ago, why would he have waited until now?
"Yue'er, it's your first time to Qingxiao, how about I show you around?" Chu Li asked.

"No, time is running out, I have something important to discuss with you, so let's go to the Prince's Mansion now!" Nangong Yue said.

Chu Li responded with "Okay", turned around and walked towards the carriage, as if thinking of something, stopped, and said: "Yue'er, your horse is tired from the long journey, why don't you take my carriage how?"

Nangong Yue frowned. Chu Li is Qingxiao's prince. If she said a few words to him, the common people would say that she had something to do with him. She was not afraid of those rumors, but it would bring a lot of trouble to Chu Li. trouble.

"No, the horse has rested all night, and it has recovered." Nangong Yue said, took a look at Xianqing who was standing not far away holding the horse, walked over slowly, and jumped into the carriage.

Chu Li watched Nangong Yue get into the carriage, a strange look flashed in his black eyes, and then he disappeared, and walked forward. Chu Li got into the carriage, and the luxurious carriage drove forward slowly. Two rows of soldiers followed beside the carriage, Xian Qing drove the carriage and followed Chu Li's carriage unhurriedly.

Not long after, they arrived at the Prince's Mansion. Chu Li got out of the carriage and walked towards Nangong Yue. He raised the curtain of the car lightly with jade hands, revealing Nangong Yue's beautiful face. Chu Li smiled: "Yue'er, we're here."

Nangong Yue let out a "hmm" and leaned out of the carriage.

Nangong Yue raised her eyes and saw the carved beams and painted buildings, green tiles and vermilion eaves, and the three big characters "Prince's Mansion" were shining brightly under the sunlight.

Nangong Yue walked in, and followed Chu Li through the chaoshou corridor to the main hall.

"Yue'er, sit down!" Chu Li pointed to the seat beside her for Nangong Yue to sit down.

Nangong Yue was not too polite, she lifted her skirt and sat down, a little maid came over, poured a cup of tea for Nangong Yue and Chu Li, and then retreated.

"The fifth prince, Murong Yuan, is ambitious and colluded with Liuyun Kingdom to attack the imperial palace. I have no choice but to trouble you." Nangong Yue said.

Chu Li paused holding the teacup, and looked at Nangong Yue: "Yue'er, you are a daughter, why worry about these things? You are not the ninth princess now! Even if it is, this kind of thing It's not your concern..."

"Chu Li, we have known each other for so many years, you know me... You have changed after being here for a few years. Have you forgotten? How did I come here?"

Chu Li frowned, because she knew too well, so she was worried.

"Yue'er, you know, as long as you make a request, I will not refuse. I'm not around, you must take good care of yourself."

Nangong Yue nodded, took out the hairpin Su Wanqing left for her from the bundle, and said, "This hairpin was left to me by my mother."

Chu Li took the hairpin and looked at it: "The material of this hairpin is only unique to Qingxiao Country. Could it be that your mother is from Qingxiao Country?"

Nangong Yue nodded: "My mother is Su Wanqing, the daughter of Su Guogong. She also has a younger sister named Su Yurong. My father is Prince Rui."

"However, there are rumors that Su Wanqing, Duke Su's eldest daughter, fell ill and died. How could it be..."
