"A few years ago, Xiaochen was fighting with foreign nomads, and finally he disappeared, we looked for him for a long time, even if we turned over the mountain, we couldn't find him, and finally Xiaochen finally came back, I asked him what was going on, and he said that there was a girl surnamed Yuan who saved him......" Speaking of this, Gu Yijing turned his head to look at the prince, "Am I right?" You're saying that there was a girl surnamed Yuan who saved you. ”

Li Chen didn't expect his mother to suddenly say this, what she said was true, Li Chen nodded.

Yuan Qing was sweating in her heart when she heard this, if she let the concubine know that she was willing to save the prince's life because she asked for the prince's money......

"That girl, her surname is Yuan, and Yuan Qing, your surname is also Yuan, I think, was the person who saved Xiaochen back then Yuan Qing you?" Gu Yijing looked at Yuan Qing and said bluntly.

Yuan Qing collapsed suddenly, how could she answer this sentence, the only two people who knew the truth, she was one, and Li Chen sitting next to her was one, at this time, in front of Li Chen, how could she answer the question thrown to her by the concubine?

"This ...... Just ask the prince. Yuan Qing looked like he was going home, and he couldn't lie at this time, so let's face the reality.

"Xiaochen, huh?" Gu Yijing was not angry, and raised her eyes to look at Li Chen, who was picking vegetables.

"yes." Li Chen nodded lightly.

"Really? Was it Yuan Qing who saved Xiaochen? Gu Yijing was startled, looked at Yuan Qing, looked up and down, as if she wanted to see a hole, "Yuan Qing, you are Xiaochen's life-saving benefactor." ”

That's because you don't know the inside story yet, if you know that when I was saving him, I first asked him for money, oh my God! Am I still alive? Yuan Qing sweated wildly in his heart, he was so unlucky, not to mention saving a prince, he still ran to his territory damnly...... I wouldn't have been greedy for his money if I had known...... Now what?

In order not to let the matter get bigger and bigger, Yuan Qing decided to act at the opportunity and couldn't say more, so Yuan Qing smiled noncommittally at Gu Yijing and said, "Concubine Xie raised Yuan Qing." ”

"Alas, since you saved Xiaochen and are our saviors, we will never treat our saviors badly, Yuan Qing, just say what you want." Gu Yijing said very boldly.

What do I want? As long as you don't kill me. Yuan Qing was sad in her heart, and her face was happy, "I just want the prince to be safe, it's fine." Judging from the current concubine's expression, maybe she didn't know that it was just a money transaction, Yuan Qing was slightly relieved.

"What a kind girl." Gu Yilan on the side opened her mouth to praise Yuan Qingdao.

Kindness? Have you ever seen that kind person who wants to talk about money first and then save others when they are dying?

Well, the situation was a bit special at that time, and Yuan Qing didn't want to cause too much trouble, after all, it was an army fighting, and it was not an ordinary person who was injured.

"Xiaochen, why didn't you say it earlier? Obviously, we have seen Yuan Qing a long time ago. The concubine turned the finger at Li Chen, and her expression seemed to be a little complaining.

"It's not too late to know."

"What's not too late? It's been more than a year late, and if I hadn't thought of it today, when would you tell me? Gu Yijing said complainingly, indeed, Li Chen never told Gu Yijing more about Yuan Qing saving him.

I hope he never says it, Yuan Qing said in his heart. The prince is not something that anyone can save, and it is good to save the officials and enter the knights, but it is not good to save the whole family...... Combined with the previous ones, Yuan Qing belongs to the latter.

"Yuan Qing, in the past, Xiaochen almost hit you while riding a horse, it was really an unintentional mistake, don't blame him." Gu Yijing remembered that a month ago, her son rode out of the city and almost bumped into Yuan Qing, and now that Yuan Qing is her son's life-saving benefactor, she naturally has to apologize.

"The concubine is serious, I ...... It's okay if the prince is fine. "Damn, does he have anything to do with me, labor and management are victims, okay? Yuan Qing said inconsistently.

"Alas, I'm really embarrassed for you, my son is cold, when you saved him, he shouldn't have lost his temper with you, right?" Gu Yijing said, her son, a noble prince, suffers from serious cleanliness, and he is also a person who treats him coldly when he doesn't agree, and it is difficult to take care of him.

This one...... Yuan Qing thought for a long time in his heart, turned his head to look at the prince beside him, and saw that he had an indifferent expression, and then said: "No, the prince is very good...... "Damn, he is also good, he has a cold face all day long, and it is okay if I don't freeze to death."

"Oh, that's good, you don't know, Xiaochen's face is so cold that he almost freezes people to death." Gu Yijing did not shy away from picking up her son's shortcomings in front of her life-saving benefactor.

How could I not know? It's an obvious fact, okay? "Concubine, let's eat well, the food is almost cold." Yuan Qingdao. If you keep talking, Ice Cube Face is about to turn around.

"Oh, Yuan Qing is really careful." Gu Yijing's face was full of smiles.

The meal was coming to an end, and Yuan Qing still had some hair in his heart, if the prince told the inside story of that incident on a whim one day, how would he, his mother, react? I don't dare to think about it, I can't think about it, anyway, it's a matter of a moment for them to die by themselves, whether there is that incident or not doesn't have much impact, it's better to live well, anyway, he saved the prince twice, he doesn't look at the face of the monk and the face of the Buddha, he shouldn't deliberately trap himself to death......

Yuan Qing admitted that she had no other purpose in saving the drowning prince that time, and she simply couldn't let him die, because if he died, she wouldn't live long......

Well, no matter what the purpose is, in short, she really saved the prince.

Outside the palace. A few maids whispered, "That Yuan Qing is the girl who saved the prince, no wonder, she sat by the prince, and the prince did not dislike her." ”

"Yes, in the past, if you sat by the prince alone, the prince would have a black face."

"Lifesavers are different."

After the meal, Gu Yijing tried her best to repay Yuan Qing, but Yuan Qing smiled and declined.

As the saying goes, the future is long, and repaying the benefactor does not have to be repaid now, and Gu Yijing didn't say anything more.

How Yuan Qing saved Li Chen, only the two of them knew, it was a money transaction, fortunately, Li Chen happened to have money on her at that time, otherwise, whether she could save him or not would have to be verified.

It is precisely like this, Yuan Qing, a life-saving benefactor who takes money to save his life, is not easy to be...... After all, the person she saved was not an ordinary person, but a prince.

After the meal, Yuan Qing was embarrassed to tell Li Chen about reducing the rent again, thinking that if he forgot it, wouldn't he pay an extra fifty taels of silver? Sister is rich, not afraid.

Yuan Qing was about to say goodbye, but was left by Gu Yijingqiang, saying that she wanted her to walk around the palace more, but Yuan Qing couldn't refuse, so she stayed.

At this time, there was another person outside the palace who asked to see him, and that person was Lin Xianyu, who was handpicked by the concubine to enter and leave the palace at will. Lin Xiantaro, as the name suggests, is a slender girl who spreads like a willow.

Since she was accepted by the concubine that day, she has often run to the palace, although she came to the palace to accompany the concubine to relieve her boredom, but the real purpose is to see the prince. Lin Xiantaro was born in a scholarly family, she is the daughter of the family, she has been favored since she was a child, the family hopes that she can be a princess, and Lin Qiantaro also likes Li Chen, so she came.

"I've seen the princess, lord." Lin Xian Taro bowed, and his posture was like a willow supporting the wind.

"Taro, you're here, get up quickly." Gu Yijing hurriedly waved her hand, making a gesture to pull Lin Xiantaro up, Lin Xianyu was so pitiful like Sister Lin, how could Gu Yijing be willing to bow down to her like this? "Concubine Xie." Lin Xianyu stood up straight, looked at the prince in front of him, and saw that he still didn't have any expression, and couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart, but fortunately, Lin Xianyu's temperament was weak, and no one found out.

"Xian Tao, let me introduce you to someone, Yuan Qing, she is Xiaochen's life-saving benefactor." Gu Yijing said and pulled Yuan Qing beside her.

"Where, it is my third life to be able to save the prince." Yuan Qing said modestly, she swore that in the future, labor and management would never save the life of such an exaggerated character.

"Oh, girl, you saved the prince's life?" Lin Xianyu exclaimed.

Damn, didn't labor save Ice Face's life? Don't be surprised to see this. Yuan Qing didn't say anything, just nodded lightly. As the saying goes, the higher you climb, the worse you fall, even if it saves the prince's life, it should not be over-publicized, who knows if they will know that she saved the prince in the future, she will ask for money first.

Yuan Qing's smile was a bitter smile in Li Chen's eyes, or only Li Chen could see that Yuan Qing was smiling bitterly. Her smile seemed to say: Ice cube face, you must not tell the truth, anyway, if you want to kill me, it is easy to kill me, so don't insult my reputation again, labor and management can't stand it.

"I'll go back to the nap party first, and you young people will talk together." Gu Yijing's pretty face was dyed with a hint of tiredness, and she waved her hand, and Huajing beside her helped her away.

Seeing that Gu Yijing was leaving, Yuan Qing originally wanted to leave, but she thought about it again, it was better to explain some things clearly, "Lord Wang, can you take a step to speak?" The tone was very respectful.

"Yes." Li Chen said.

"Then the prince, please." Yuan Qingdao said, and looked at Lin Xianyu beside him again, "Miss Lin, I have something to talk about with the prince, so I'll go over first." Then he walked quickly to follow the footsteps of the prince. Leaving Lin Xiantaro alone in the hall, it is not advancing or retreating.

Coming to a quiet garden, the sun is not big in autumn, and the temperature is suitable, Li Chen is sitting at the stone table, and Yuan Qing is standing at the stone table, so obvious contrast.

"Sit down." Li Chen said
