Reborn as a paranoid regent's sweetheart

Chapter 81

Shen Xi thought for a while: "My lord's face can attract bees and butterflies."

There is still a bit of resentment in saying this.

Xiao Che raised his eyebrows, but did not answer.

Shen Xi nestled in his arms for a long time, during which time she grabbed the jade pendant on his waist and played with it. After a long silence, she suddenly asked, "Has the lord been seen by her?"

Xiao Che suddenly remembered that he had indeed met a woman when he came to the Prime Minister's Mansion a few days ago. Seeing her attire, she should not be a servant of the mansion, but because he was too hasty at the time, he just casually mentioned it to Shen Changming later, and didn't do too much. According to the research, that person might be Shen Lan.

"Are there any other ladies in the mansion?"

Shen Xi shook her head: "Did you forget? My father is the only daughter of mine."

Xiao Che's eyes darkened.

It seems that I still have to ask Prime Minister Shen about this matter.

Originally, he just thought that few people in the world had seen his true face, and that person could move freely in the Prime Minister's Mansion without being restrained, so it would not be wrong to leave it to Shen Changming to deal with it, but now he is looking for Come to the door.

It's not that Xiao Che is too confident, but that he does have the capital of self-confidence. He feels that Shen Lan's sudden statement that he wants to marry in is just for himself, and the most exciting thing about him is his status and power.

Of course, it can also be said that Shen Lan didn't want to make Shen Xi feel better.

How can a person who is overwhelmed and arrogant all the year round be willing to be a foil for others?

But no matter what kind of argument it is, Xiao Che can conclude that Shen Lan already knows his true identity.

Of course, he is a person who has always been cautious, and he will not let go of any possibility. At this moment, he cannot rule out that Shen Lan may simply want to find a way out.

Everything should be based on facts.

After pondering for a while, Xiao Che said: "I will let someone handle this matter, so you don't have to worry about it."

Shen Xi nodded: "My lord, this jade pendant is really beautiful."

Seeing her playing for a long time, Xiao Che saw the words "I want" written in his eyes again, and he tore off the jade pendant from his waist helplessly: "Left and right are just playthings, you can give it to you if you like."

Shen Xi has long been interested in this thing. Xiao Che hid the jade pendant in his arms when he appeared as the regent king. Now that he does not appear as the regent king, the jade pendant is worn around his waist .

Shen Xi wouldn't believe it if it wasn't something important.

Tell me, who would carry unimportant things with them all the time?

Shen Xi was very proud of getting this jade pendant, while happily pressing the jade pendant under her pillow, she was thinking in her heart that she should give Xiao Che something back.

"Okay, it's getting late, your grandmother should have woken up, don't you still want to go to her?" Xiao Che weighed Shen Xi in his arms: "When you arrive late, you should say that you are not Pay attention."

Shen Xi couldn't help but pouted: "You know a lot."

Having said that, she still started to put on her clothes neatly.

Fortunately, the clothes were placed at the foot of the bed, and she could easily hook them with a single hook.

Although grandma dotes on her, she just likes to tease her, which makes Shen Xi always act like a baby and get away with it.

After Shen Xi got dressed, Xiao Che also stood up: "I have something to do with your father, so you don't have to go back to the palace today."

"why?"

Shen Xi stopped pouring water.

"There are many people in Xiang's mansion. I may not be able to arrive in time if something happens. You live in Xiang's mansion and your father can still protect you."

Shen Xi suddenly understood.

The Empress Dowager must have known about the imperial mausoleum. She had regarded herself as a thorn in the flesh, but now that she knew that the emperor would do such a rebellious thing for her, she would definitely hate her even more.

Although there are assassins as an excuse, but the queen mother is the emperor's own mother, how could she not know what the emperor is thinking?I'm afraid that at this moment, I can't wait to skin her and cramp.

And she didn't have Xiao Che to rely on, so naturally she couldn't do anything against her openly, after all, if the Queen Mother wanted to kill her, there were too many ways.

Don't people live for power and profit in this life?Although the royal family and the Shen family still maintained superficial peace, the queen mother knew in her heart that it was basically impossible for the Shen family and the royal family to restore the old relationship in this lifetime.

So she didn't care at all whether killing Shen Xi would break the Shen family and the royal family, because this was something that she already understood and could no longer understand.

"I see." Shen Xi drank the water in the glass, and it was already cold at the moment: "Will the prince stay at the prime minister's mansion at night?"

Xiao Che paused: "I don't know."

"Okay." Shen Xi was a little disappointed, but she also knew that he probably wouldn't be free during this period of time: "Then, does the prince have anything else to say to his concubine?"

"Just take care of yourself."

I don't know what's going on, but Xiao Che's words sound perfunctory no matter what.

But Shen Xi was still happy in her heart: "Okay, the prince can go and deal with his own affairs by himself, and the concubine will go to grandma's side later."

Seeing Mrs. Shen, Shen Xi rushed forward directly: "Grandma, I miss you so much."

It happened that Mrs. Zhao was there at this moment. Seeing this, she couldn't help laughing and said: "Look at her, mother, she is still like a child in her 20s."

Shen Lan followed behind Shen Xi with her head lowered, a trace of jealousy flashed in her eyes.

Mrs. Shen couldn't help but tapped Shen Xi's head: "Are you going to live with grandma for a few days when you come back this time?"

Shen Xi originally had this intention, so she nodded hurriedly when she heard the words: "That's natural, I just asked Shuqin to go back to the palace to deliver the news, and I'm going to live in Xiangfu for a few days to accompany my grandmother and mother .”

"You, you will please grandma." Mrs. Shen hugged Shen Xi joyfully: "You have lost a lot these days, grandma will order the kitchen to cook some tonic for you later, don't be tired Broken body."

Shen Xi said with a smile: "All listen to grandma!"

Mrs. Shen originally wanted to ask something about the Northwest, but Shen Xi had already changed the topic: "Grandmother, do you know that Second Uncle wants to betroth Sister Lan to someone else?"

Mrs. Shen frowned upon hearing this: "When was it decided? Why don't I know?"

Shen Lan was a little surprised, grandma didn't know?

"Then it seems that the second uncle is deliberately hiding it from you and not letting you know." Shen Xi looked up at Mrs. Shen, her big eyes filled with resentment and dissatisfaction: "Grandmother really doesn't know that second uncle even gave Sister Lan to me." What kind of situation has become, she would rather marry to the palace as a concubine, and go to accompany Qingdeng Ancient Buddha in the future!"

Shen Lan's face turned pale, she really didn't expect Shen Xi to expose this matter so carelessly, so she immediately knelt down on the ground, tears came as soon as she said it: "Grandmother...I...I really have no choice but to come out This is the worst policy!"
