Reborn as a paranoid regent's sweetheart

Chapter 78 Lotus Self-Cultivation

"Go to sleep." Xiao Che patted Shen Xi's head and said.

"Oh." Shen Xi reluctantly agreed, and then obediently closed her eyes, but a bold idea had gradually sprouted in her heart.

Poor Xiao Che still doesn't know what he is about to face.

More than half of the night had passed, and with Xiao Che beside Shen Xi, she slept soundly.

When she woke up, Xiao Che was no longer by her side. Although there was still residual heat in the place where he had been lying, Shen Xi felt in her heart that he should have been gone for a while, and the residual heat was just her own body temperature.

Couldn't help yawning, opened the curtain, and saw that the blood on the ground had been cleaned up, and he had already put on a middle coat, which should have been put on by Xiao Che while she was asleep. .

Thinking about it now, what happened last night still has lingering fears, what would she be like now if the person from the secret cabinet didn't come out?Repeat the mistakes of the past again?
Just thinking about it is already unbearable.

Shuqin also happened to be knocking on the door outside right now: "Your Majesty, it's getting late."

Shen Xi said knowingly: "Come in."

Shuqin was relieved when he heard Shen Xi's lazy and familiar voice.

Thinking of how long she had mistook the prince for a little boy, Shuqin wanted to sneak in.

Why can she do such an embarrassing thing?
The more Shuqin thinks about it now, the more she feels that that person is Xiao Che. By now, she has basically confirmed his identity.

Came from the northwest, dared to enter and leave the palace boldly, and was always elusive, how could such a person be an ordinary person?Besides, Qin Zhao was guarding outside along the way, and suddenly there was an extra person in the carriage, how could he not feel it?

Especially thinking about how she mistakenly treated him as a ghost at the beginning, Shuqin felt that she really shouldn't have, she just didn't know Taishan.

The main reason is that he did not expect that His Royal Highness the Prince Regent, who has always been known for terror, would have such a beautiful skin.

But at the moment she didn't dare to ask, thinking that the prince must have come here in the name of feigning death, and now she can only rot this matter in her stomach, absolutely can't reveal a word, just pretend that this person doesn't exist at all.

"Your Majesty, the wind and snow outside have stopped, and the people guarding the mausoleum are already clearing the road to clean it, and we can go on the road in about half an hour." Shuqin said: "Your Majesty, do you want some breakfast?"

Thinking of what happened last night, how could they still dare to eat the food here?Shuqin was just asking casually.

Shen Xi shook her head: "I'm not hungry, so I don't need to serve food to me."

Just kidding, what if the inside is drugged again?
Shuqin nodded: "The servant knows."

"By the way, did you catch that assassin yesterday?" Shen Xi also asked in a pretentious manner.

"I caught it, and now it has been locked up by Mr. Qin and is about to be sent to Dali Temple."

Shen Xi didn't care who was caught, it couldn't be Xiao Che anyway, and that was enough for her.

I don't know how they dealt with it in the end, anyway, Shen Xi didn't hear any gossip about yesterday.

That's fine.

Shen Xi was very satisfied.

"That's good." Shen Xi let Shuqin tie her hair into a bun: "Pack up your things and get ready to go out."

She really didn't want to stay in this crappy place any longer.

"Yes, ma'am."

At this moment, the wind and snow outside are really much smaller. Shen Xi really can't figure out where the snow came from yesterday. If she didn't see the tall snow piled up around her, she would have wondered if the emperor made it yesterday. It's a game.

This time the emperor had already got into the chariot first, perhaps out of embarrassment in meeting her, the emperor avoided her intentionally or unintentionally.

The carriage went straight back to the Prince Regent's Mansion, and Shen Xi fulfilled her wish and did not meet the emperor again. Of course, she did not see Xiao Che again.

This man's whereabouts are really weird.

Back at the palace, what I saw was Wen Shi with red and swollen eyes.

"My younger sister has met my older sister." Wen's body was completely white, and she quickly saluted after seeing Shen Xi.

Shen Xi said with a smile: "Why didn't I know that I had an extra sister?"

Wen's face turned pale: "It's my concubine who overstepped."

"Okay, you go back first, don't cry all the time." When Shen Xi was about to go back to the room, Wen spoke again.

She seemed to have suffered some great grievances, but she still held back her words: "Princess Wangfei, today your cousin, Miss Shen Lan, came to the house and said she had something important to ask you, and she is waiting for you in the lobby now." .”

Shen Xi was suspicious, why did she come here when she was fine?
"What's the matter?"

Wen shook her head: "I don't know."

Shen Xi couldn't show too much in front of outsiders: "I know."

Wen shi responded and said nothing more.

Now facing Shen Lan, no matter how disgusted she is, she still has to pretend.

When we arrived at the lobby, we really saw a plain white Shen Lan. Her face was a bit haggard, and her expression was almost the same as that of Wen's, as if she was enduring the great grievance and sadness.

"Sister Lan, what's the matter with you?" Shen Xi quickly walked in front of her, grabbed her hand to salute herself: "The Japanese palace has been dealing with the prince's affairs these past few days, so it's relatively busy. Little is known about it.”

Shen Lan shook her head, with tears in her eyes, she looked distraught: "Sister, I... my father wants to marry me to a man."

Shen Xi was surprised when she heard this and said, "Isn't this a good thing? You are indeed not young now, and it will not be good for your reputation if you keep procrastinating."

Those who are still in the boudoir at this age, either have a wealth of wealth and a collection of thousands of favors, and the requirements are particularly high, or they are ugly and have high requirements.

People like Shen Lan simply have a bad family background, and they have been picking and choosing, and they have a high opinion of themselves, so they haven't been whereabouts until now.

It's true, no matter who hears that his in-law is a gambling addict and owes a lot of debt, no one will be happy to marry this person.

The influence of family environment on a person is very important. Although Shen Lan grew up in the prime minister's mansion, there is a layer of separation between her and the people in the prime minister's mansion. Otherwise, Mrs. Zhao would have helped her get married a long time ago.

Considering that it will be Shen Changqiu who will have more contact with him in the future, many people retreated again.

Shen Lan still couldn't hold back her tears: "Sister, you must help me this time... my father... my father wants to marry me to Wang Laolai at the street!"

It was so!
Shen Xi understood.

This Wang Laolai is not a good man, he is about fifty years old, he has married five wives in total, all five of them are dead, he has a son and a daughter under his knees, and he also opened a small gambling house, and Shen Changqiu It is a regular customer of this casino.

　What bad thoughts could Wenshi have?She is just a pure and innocent little white lotus~
