What is it for, exactly? The queen actually used her own son as bait. The hunt came to an abrupt end because of the prince's injury.

All the people returned to the palace in a hurry, and the current East Palace had already become a mess, which could be described as a soldier and a panic.

Qing'er walked aimlessly in the garden, thinking about it, only to feel that this palace was eerie and terrifying.

After passing through the willow forest and the stone bridge, I came to the small river with a ripple in the microwave.

Thoughts are complicated, like a mess that is never clear, and Qing'er doesn't dare to think about it.

Prince, is he okay?

What will happen to him?

What kind of ending will fate give this cowardly and incompetent prince?

"You know what? The palace maid Wenxiu jumped into a well and died. Why did a good person jump into a well and die? ”

A fat palace maid said.

Two palace maids, one fat and one thin, came on.

"I heard that it was because I didn't take good care of the bird, and the bird died suddenly for some reason. Isn't it strange, you say? Wenxiu was afraid that the queen would blame, so she committed suicide in fear of sin. ”

A thin palace maid said.

"Isn't it just a bird? As for it? ”

The fat palace maid said.

"It's not an ordinary bird, it's a golden silk bird that the prince gave to the queen some time ago, it's precious. The queen mother loved it very much, and often went to feed the birds herself. The general slave queen is not allowed to get close to the golden silk bird, and the queen mother specially ordered the intimate palace maid Wenxiu to take care of it personally, and it is a supreme honor to be able to get this errand among the palace maids. It's a pity...... Hey......"

The thin palace maid said.

"I think it may be that the queen mother loves the prince very much, so she will love the golden silk bird sent by the prince. What precious items do you think the queen doesn't have! It's just that this bird is dead, poor Wenxiu! Sometimes grace isn't always a good thing! ”

The fat palace maid said.

The two palace maids walked along the gravel road of the small river, gradually getting closer, and Qing'er heard more clearly.

Wenxiu is dead?

So fast!

Qing'er felt not only shocked, but also cold.

I heard it very clearly.

I don't know if it's because I don't want to believe it, or why.

Qing'er suddenly blocked the way of the two palace maids.

"The Wenxiu you are talking about, but the queen's personal palace maid?"

At Qing'er's sudden move, the two palace maids were stunned for a moment, and said in unison: "Exactly!" ”

"Wen Xiu jumped into a well and died! The palace maids in the harem are all spreading among themselves, and they are discussing. Wenxiu is really pitiful! ”

The fat palace maid said.

The two maids left.

Qing'er froze in place.

She died so inexplicably after all.

In this way, there is no proof of death.

And no one knew that it was the queen who did it.

may also be innocently implicated because of the prince's injury.

Either way, she couldn't escape death.

Who let her know too much.

In an instant, Qing'er felt creepy.

Isn't he one of the people who knows the queen's secrets?

Will he become the second Wenxiu and die inexplicably in the palace?

"Qing'er...... Qing'er ......"

Suddenly, Qing'er found that Li Chun was already standing in front of her, she didn't know when he came and how long he had been here, with a slight trace of warmth in her cold eyes, she was staring at herself intently.

didn't have time to react, in a hurry, Qing'er grabbed Li Chun's arm tightly, like grasping the last trace of trust, a trace of residual hope, staring at him with pitiful eyes, feeling that she was really like a little woman in front of him, but she was willing.

"Lord Wang, are you willing to take Qing'er away?"

Seeing Qing'er's pitiful appearance, Li Chun felt both pity and pity, when did this stubborn woman become as clingy as a little woman.

"Sooner or later! Are you in such a hurry to marry me? ”

"Why is the prince unwilling at this moment?"

Qing'er looked at him with a pair of helpless big eyes.

"It's not that I don't want to! But you have to wait, you are now a celebrity around the emperor, not whoever wants to go, and you have to wait for the opportunity, you have to wait for me! ”

Li Chun put his other hand on Qing'er's hands that were holding his arm, her hand was so smooth and soft.

Li Chun's steady and powerful hand held Qing'er's hand, and his affirmative eyes told her that in this deep palace, he would protect her, and when the time was right, he would take her out of here.

Qing'er's nervous heart eased a lot.

I want to leave here, even if I hide in the mountains and forests with him, fishing by the river, plowing the fields and weaving cloth, it is better than being in this palace, day by day I am frightened, and my spirit is tortured.

"Lord Wang, do you know that Wenxiu is dead?"

"I heard the eunuchs in the palace just now, and I already know it!"

"Such a cruel mother, how could he treat his son like this! But he is her biological son after all! Tiger poison still doesn't eat children! ”

"Qing'er, in this palace, there are more sinister and despicable means than this, no one cares what kind of means are used, they only care about the purpose! And the prince just strayed into the trap! ”

Li Chun let go of Qing'er's hand, and looked at the distant distance with sad and cold eyes along the river.

In an instant, Qing'er understood something.

"Imperial Horse, it's the emperor!"

Li Chun's cold eyes always looked into the distance, his hands were behind his back, his expression was determined, his lips were tightly closed, and he was silent and did not answer Qing'er's words.

Qing'er felt that this palace was much more terrifying than she thought, much colder.

What is the emperor doing this for?

Or maybe it's for some purpose.

He already knew!

Li Chun: He already knew!

Why don't they stop what the other party wants to do?

Can't he stop it?

"Lord Wang, can Qing'er ask you a question?"

"Ask!"

"Why didn't the prince stop it?"

"You say, in that situation, was I really the one who should have stopped me?"

"It's the Queen!"

Li Chun finally turned his cold face and said unhurriedly.

"Yes! What would you do if someone voluntarily offered their son as bait for a certain purpose? Are you going to ruin someone else's hard-earned game? I'm afraid that when the time comes, it will not only be thankless, but it will also become the second Wenxiu! ”

"Poor prince! He's not bad by nature! Just ......"

Qing'er's sad eyes looked into the distance.

"There is nothing to be sorry for in this palace! Some just want to live well! ”

Suddenly, a question flashed through Qing'er's mind, lingering.

I had to find out.

"Lord, if it was the emperor who rode the royal horse at that time, what would the prince do?"

Li Chun's cold eyes, flashing with cold light, stared at Qing'er, as for this question, he really didn't think about it, and he didn't want to think about it, the only thing he remembered was the dying words of his mother: live well!

"Qing'er, you have too many questions! I came here today, and I just want to tell you again, in this palace, if you know more, you will only get the same fate as Wenxiu! You're a smart woman! It wouldn't be helpful for me to say more. ”

Qing'er saw trust, mutual understanding, and sympathy from Li Chun's entrustment.

Since I had him, I no longer felt like I was alone in this cold palace.

"Qing'er understands!"

Li Chun glanced affectionately and turned to leave.

The breeze is blowing, and the willows are swaying.

From his back, Qing'er felt that he was carrying a lot, but he never wanted to say it, preferring to suffer it himself and endure it.

"Lord, if it was the emperor who rode the royal horse at that time, what would the prince do?"

From beginning to end, Qing'er didn't get a positive answer from Li Chun, and this sentence has always become a mystery in Qing'er's heart.

Perhaps, this is the father-son relationship of the emperor's family.
