Chapter 681 Staggered (2)
"Stop!" Zheng yelled angrily, gasping for breath as she spoke, unable to continue for a while.

This person is his concubine after all.

No matter how unhappy Chu Qiyan was in his heart, he couldn't do anything with her, so he could only suppress his emotions and let her drag him along.

He glanced at Zheng's face, and said in a cold and sarcastic tone: "What is Mother and Concubine still chasing after me? Don't you have serious business to do right now?"

"You—" Chu Qiyan has always respected her. Zheng Shi was about to get angry because of his attitude, but after thinking about it again, it was her own fault after all, so she could only temporarily suppress her temper.

"I know I did it carelessly today, but I'm just not reconciled!" Zheng said, pinching the handkerchief vigorously, with an indescribably sinister expression on his brows, "Could it be that Is it because they killed your eldest sister, but I have to swallow my anger and watch that little bitch become a phoenix? How can there be such a cheap thing in this world?"

"So?" Chu Qiyan asked back, "Just to express this anger for the eldest sister, my marriage can be used as a springboard? A tool for you to take revenge on the Huo family?"

"I'm not—" Zheng wanted to defend with a guilty conscience, but everything had already happened, and she also knew that it would be useless to say more, so she simply gritted her teeth, turned her head away from looking at Chu Qiyan's face, and said, "I know that in this matter I'm sorry for you, but I don't want you to marry her. I don't know what kind of evil Mrs. Luo Guogong is, and she wants to get that little bitch to the Duke's mansion. I have no choice but to do so. "

As she said, she turned her head and held Chu Qiyan's hand with a pleading face, and said, "Yan'er, you should be considerate of me once, the emperor's imperial decree has not yet come down, before that, I will have a way to hide After all, it’s not a real engagement, and when I avenge your elder sister, no matter how caring you are, I’ll just go and propose it to you again!”

As Zheng said, she became more and more anxious, fearing that Chu Qiyan would not buy it, there were tears in her eyes.

Her explanations are meaningless to Chu Qiyan.

Chu Qiyan just listened to her with a blank face, until she finished speaking, then she sneered ironically and said: "Mother, you have already talked about this, can I still refuse?"

It's not that he can't refuse, but that with the emperor on top, it's impossible for him to say no!
This way, Chu Xunyang repeatedly persuaded him to turn back, but it was clear——

He couldn't turn back at all.

There is only one highest position in the world, if he takes a step back, this situation will always be in front of him.

He didn't want to live such a life of being inferior to others, and even hated such a situation where he couldn't help himself.

It's just to deal with an irrelevant woman, but you want to take advantage of his marriage reputation to promote it?

Such a cowardly and incompetent way of handling things is not Chu Qiyan's style.

What happened this morning made him feel more and more suffocated and unbearable.

Although he didn't pursue it further, Zheng Shi felt even more uneasy just looking at his cold and heartless face.

She pinched the handkerchief to wipe her tears, and finally couldn't help crying, "I only have you and your eldest sister, and now she is murdered to death, how can you ask me, a mother, to be reconciled? Son, I-"

"I still have a lot of things to do here. Concubine Mu, go back early if you have nothing to do!" Chu Qiyan stood with his hands behind his back facing Tiankong, who was pouring rain outside, and interrupted her again in a cold voice.

"Yan'er—" Zheng wanted to say something more, but seeing his attitude of refusing to talk, his lips moved, and he didn't dare to force it after all.

"Princess, you haven't closed your eyes all night, you should go back and rest first!" Seeing that the mother and son had come to a stalemate, Mother Gu stepped forward and pulled Zheng's sleeve desperately to wink at her.

Mrs. Zheng glanced at Chu Qiyan again. Seeing the other party's indifferent attitude, she also felt that it was useless to talk too much, so she could only wipe away her tears and was supported by Gu's mother to leave first.

Chu Qiyan never looked back, the light and shadow in her eyes settled deeply, she listened silently to the sound of the rain outside the corridor.

Li Lin didn't dare to show up until Mrs. Zheng was far away, and called out tentatively, "Your Majesty!"

"Yeah!" Chu Qiyan didn't turn her head, didn't wait for his next words, and said directly: "Go and make arrangements. After seven days, Huo Qing'er will do it on the way to Mrs. Huo's funeral. Do it cleanly!"

He didn't have all kinds of calculations like the emperor and Zheng's. Since these two people brought the problem here, he didn't have any patience for a moment, and he didn't want to get entangled with these people at all.

Although this is Chu Qiyan's usual style of conduct, Li Lin was still shocked when he heard the words, and said secretly: "My son, this is inappropriate! The emperor just said that he would marry you and Miss Huo, and she immediately had an accident , even if it is just an accident, it will inevitably hinder your reputation."

Mrs. Zheng was dazzled by hatred, and the woman was short-sighted.

Chu Qiyan should never have done this.

"Whoever wants to make up the story, let them discuss it!" Chu Qiyan said, but he was completely unmoved. Halfway through the conversation, he suddenly remembered something, and asked again: "Ziwei's matter has been clarified." Is it the East Palace or Prince Rui's Mansion?"

"I can't find it!" Li Lin said, with a look of shame on his face, "Her siblings are still sold as slaves in the Huo Mansion. The subordinates have tried to get people to contact them, but the two children seem to know nothing about it. , like—it was just used as bait."

"Then put it on Chu Yijian's brothers and sisters!" Chu Qiyan said, making a decisive conclusion.

"My subordinates feel that this is more like the style of Princess Xunyang. She didn't touch those two children." Li Lin said, still having doubts.

"After what happened last night, don't you still understand?" Chu Qiyan sneered in disapproval. With this smile, the light in her eyes became even more cold, "That woman Chu Xinrui's scheming methods are definitely not Ordinary people are comparable, what you see may not be true."

Chu Xinrui instigated a bloody palace change with her bare hands!

This woman is really a ruthless character second to none.

Although Li Lin still had concerns, he was always convinced by his words, and only said: "Then what shall we do?"

"Remember it first, let's see what the East Palace is going to do first." Chu Qiyan said in a calm tone.

When mentioning the East Palace, Li Lin suddenly looked serious, and looked around cautiously. Seeing that there was no one around, he leaned forward and whispered in Chu Qiyan's ear: "Your Majesty, you ordered your subordinates to investigate the matter earlier. , I have a clue!"

Because the matter was so important, he simply leaned close to Chu Qiyan's ear, blocked it with his hands, and whispered, his cautious face and mouth movements were not seen by outsiders.
