Empress is in the harem again

Chapter 123 Listen to the truth~

"Then talk as you say, and let me go."

Shen Xi struggled, and looked at Shen Jingche unhappily.

What did he eat growing up?run so fast?
Unconvinced, Shen Xi fiddled with his wrinkled collar.

The two sat around the round stone table, relatively silent.

After Shen Xi knew that he was the original owner's elder brother, she immediately lost the desire to flirt.

After all, that is the close relative of this body.

She lowered her head lower and lower under his gaze, wishing she could bury her head in the teacup.

Shen Jingche seemed to see her embarrassment, and laughed casually: "Your head is so big, it really can't fit in a cup."

Shen Xi raised her eyes and stared at it, then hummed softly.

Shen Jingche tapped his fingers on the edge of the table, his eyelids slightly lifted, "Aren't you going to explain?"

"Explain what."

Shen Xi pretended not to understand.

Shen Jingche took a deep breath, his worried eyes were obviously concerned, "You are in the palace, but what happened?"

"Why don't I even remember?"

Even though their temperaments are different, he can still recognize at a glance that this is his sister.

In fact, Shen Xi should have been so lively and energetic in the first place, and he should be ruthless when dealing with bad guys.

It was no different from her in the past. He thought that it was normal for him to become cheerful after entering the palace and being with the emperor as he wished.

But now, it's obviously not like that.

Shen Xi is normal, but he doesn't remember him at all.

She slowly spit out almost stiff words from her wet and bright red lips, "The last time I fell into the water, I can't remember many things clearly."

"You can't remember things clearly, you obviously can't remember people."

Shen Jingche exposed her without hesitation.

And continued to ask, "When did you fall into the water? How could you fall into the water if you were so good?"

Shen Xi subconsciously looked at his face, that look of concern and eagerness did not seem to be fake.

It seems that her elder brother really cares about the original owner.

Shen Xi propped his chin, raised his head and shook his head, thought about it for a while, and answered unhurriedly, "It should be that I accidentally sprained my foot and fell into the water."

"I want to hear the truth."

Shen Jingche couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth at the word "should".

Immediately after he finished speaking, he patted the table, "Is there someone in the palace secretly plotting? If I hadn't noticed and came here today, you would have already—"

Shen Xi narrowed his eyes, but his attention was on his hands, staring at them curiously, the round table shook so hard, did his hands hurt?

Seeing her staring at his hand, the man flicked her forehead angrily, "Did you hear what I said?"

Shen Xi took a deep breath in pain, glared at him with her exquisite eyes, and rubbed her fingers on the forehead that was reddened by the popping.

"I heard you, didn't you ask about it just now, the little palace maid's lover outside the palace came to avenge her."

Shen Jingche took out a dark green porcelain bottle from his waist, took a cup in the middle of the round table, poured the contents of the porcelain bottle into it, and silently took a sip.

Shen Xi looked at it with interest, snatched the porcelain bottle from his hand, and smelled it, the mellow fragrance slightly rushed into the tip of his nose.

It's wine!

Seeing her lively appearance, Shen Jingche held the cup a little tight in his hand, and his peach blossom eyes were a little cold, "You can even believe it."

"What do you mean?"

Shen Xi also poured a glass, first took a sip, and then licked his lips.

Hearing Shen Jingche's slightly sarcastic words, he raised his head in doubt.
