Chapter 298: The Great Prince Sees Him in Person
In an instant, all whispering stopped, and they all held their breath and waited for the two of them to answer.
Shen Qiuyu suppressed the panic in her heart, put on the posture of Princess Chen, walked to Chu Qingli's side, and explained to everyone: "This princess knows what you are thinking, but there is indeed a misunderstanding in this, now that my identity is Princess Chen, how can I do something that humiliates the royal face." Shen Qiuyu said the words sonorously, as if he was afraid that others would not believe him, so he spoke so emphatically.
Chu Qing hooked the corner of her mouth, turned her head to look at Shen Qiuyu's side face, although she showed calm and self-control on her face, her tense body revealed her nervousness.
"We naturally believe in Princess Chen's personality, but today's events do make us curious, if Princess Chen can explain one or two, it can also block the spread of rumors, and also save Princess Chen's face, right?" Chu Qingli persuaded him with good words, if he didn't know the relationship between the two of them, he was afraid that he really thought that they had a deep friendship before.
Shen Qiuyu secretly clenched his fists in his cuffs, and turned his head to look at Chu Qingli's eyes as if they had been quenched with poison. "Even if you want to explain, it shouldn't be with you, right? Who are you to take care of my business? Shen Qiuyu looked at Chu Qingli with resentment, in the past, she was the eldest lady of the Xuanguo Mansion, and Chu Qingli was just the unfavored daughter of the Anping Mansion, now she is the eldest prince, the concubine of the future prince, no matter how good Xiao Pan is, she is still under the eldest prince, Chu Qingli is naturally pressed by her, but this is Chu Qingli, who is more humble than her, why should she give an explanation?
Chu Qingli smiled lightly, the cloud was light, and then he raised his chin and pointed to the outermost corner of the crowd. Shen Qiuyu was puzzled in her heart, and as she spoke, Chu Qingli's gaze looked over, and her body was cold in an instant, as if someone had poured a basin of cold water on her head, and her body was stiff and unable to move.
Shen Qiuyu's lips trembled, and she asked Chu Qingli, with a little despair in her eyes, "Yes...... You asked him to come over? Shen Qiuyu looked at the eldest prince not far away, wanting to explain, but he didn't know if he would trust her? Since marrying into the palace of King Chen, the eldest prince has been lukewarm and polite to her, polite and estranged, he should be angry with her in his heart, but because of her family background, he has been holding back. Now, can she still expect the eldest prince to believe her?
Chu Qingli didn't deny it, and generously nodded at Shen Qiuyu and admitted: "Yes, it's so lively tonight, wouldn't it be a pity not to let the eldest prince come over and take a look." Chu Qingli pretended not to see Shen Qiuyu's face, and said cruelly.
The eldest prince's eyes were cold, and his sword eyebrows were furrowed, as if he was extremely unhappy in his heart, so his face was so ugly. The eldest prince has always been gentle and polite in front of outsiders, but now he looks like this, he should be angry with Shen Qiuyu. Shen Qiuyu was angry not because she mistakenly thought that she was entangled with others, but because she lost his face in front of everyone, which took a blow to his proud self-esteem. Shen Qiuyu suddenly felt a little ridiculous, why didn't anyone treat her sincerely?
The eldest prince pushed aside the crowd and walked in the direction of Shen Qiuyu. The moment everyone saw the eldest prince, they swallowed all their curiosity into their stomachs, and even looked at the eldest prince with some sympathy.
The eldest prince walked up to Shen Qiuyu, stretched out his hand and grabbed her arm directly, and pulled her forward without pity at all, without saying a word, the cold air around him was solemn.
When the eldest prince walked a few steps away, Chu Qingyun reacted and hurriedly raised his feet to chase after him, after all, he had nothing now, he could only rely on the big tree of the eldest prince, if the eldest prince misunderstood him, then his future would really be slim.
Chu Qingyun ran to the eldest prince with a shy face, and said to him with a smile: "The eldest prince, things are not what you think, I ...... with the princess."
But before Chu Qingyun's words were finished, he was interrupted by the eldest prince, "This king has his own judgment, and it is not your turn to talk more." ”
Chu Qingyun took a step back, it seemed that the eldest prince had some faith in today's events. Looking at the eldest prince's not very friendly face, Chu Qingyun didn't dare to speak again, so as not to anger him again. Chu Qingyun had to vent all his anger on Chu Qingli, if it weren't for her, how could the eldest prince misunderstand him, so Chu Qingyun turned his head and glared at Chu Qingli fiercely, but the latter shrugged his shoulders indifferently, as if "You are to blame" on his face, Chu Qingli's expression made Chu Qingyun even more depressed.
Chu Qingli took the gong from his subordinates and struck it, signaling them to all look at themselves. Chu Qingli said to the people in front of him: "Today's matter must involve the royal family, you still don't talk too much, in case the big prince is investigated, it will really suffer, okay, okay, let's disperse." The more Chu Qingli said this, the more they felt that what they saw today was extraordinary, even if they didn't dare to tell each other openly, they would always pass on the news quietly in private.
Chu Qingyun looked at Chu Qingli with disgust, today's incident was clearly stirred up by her, and now she still wants to be a good person, sell the face of the prince, and the good and bad people have done it for her.
Chu Qingli knew that Chu Qingyun had been glaring at her angrily, but she only pretended not to see it, stretched her waist and yawned again, sleepy, "Let's go back too, it's been three watches, it's trapped me......" Chu Qingli said, yawned several more times, and walked straight to her carriage, in front of the door that was still lively, and now only Chu Qingyun was left.
Chu Qingli went back to the palace and fell asleep, and after waking up in the morning, he was interested in inquiring about Shen Qiuyu and Chu Qingyun's situation.
According to the news that Du Qinghe inquired, the eldest prince was very angry last night, and when he went back, he asked Shen Qiuyu to lock up in the house, and she was not allowed to step out of the door without his permission. As for Chu Qingyun, I heard that he was also separated, and now he is just a small guard of the Golden Scale Guard, which is exactly what Chu Qingli wants, before Chu Qingyun used his position to always suppress Chu Qinghan, but now the eldest prince personally punished him, and those people did not dare to be with him anymore, so as not to indirectly offend the eldest prince.
Chu Qingli took a sip of porridge, his heart was very happy, thinking about the rumors in the capital, all the people changed in one night, and now what they are talking about is the ambiguous relationship between Shen Qiuyu and Chu Qingyun.
"Let's go, Qinghe, let's go out for a walk and hear what the people have to say about this now." Chu Qingli suddenly became interested and wanted to hear it himself.
