Chapter Forty-Nine: A Covenant to His Highness

Qiao Mei was a little surprised, it stands to reason that no matter in the past life or this life, the most suspicious person has always been the Qi family.

And what about her...... How can you ask yourself that?

Stretched out her hand and poured a cup of tea, the smell of tea made Qiao Meng's eyebrows blurred, and her tone was indifferent and tender: "I know that you are all suspicious of your mother, but Meng'er swears that she will never do that." ”

Qiao Mei shook her head slightly, "No one thinks it was made by the second aunt." ”

Indeed, if there are some brains, they will not doubt Qi......

"Whether you believe it or not, Fourth Sister, Meng'er is willing to vouch for her life." Qiao Meng smiled miserably, and after speaking, she got up and left with the maids.

"Are you messing with her?" Qiao Yu noticed the scene here and came over to ask her.

Qiao Mei calmed his eyes, but still shook his head.

Qiao Meng in his previous life hated the Qi family.

hated her for never disregarding her own wishes, all she thought about all day long was climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix, but in the end, it was a bamboo basket that was empty, which not only made Qiao Meng lose her life's happiness, but she also had no good end - on the way to accompany Qiao Mengyuan to marry a concubine in Xiaocheng, she suddenly fell ill and died......

When Lin Xueyi came to look for Qiao Mei, she was dressed like a flower butterfly, fluttering her wings and flying over, Qiao Mei didn't recognize her.

She is not bad-looking, although she is not beautiful, but in the end she is still delicate and aura. Now she is wearing a bright blue tunic skirt, with a pair of emerald pearls and jade swaying obliquely on her head, and a shallow fat powder on her face, which is really beautiful to look at.

"Are you going to see your brother Qin Chu?" Qiao raised his eyebrows slightly, and couldn't help but quip.

Lin Xueyi glared at her, and because of the faint rouge on her face, Qiao Mei couldn't tell if she was blushing.

"Alright, go with me." Qiao Mei got up, and the maidservants straightened her skirt for her, "Let's go, I have already agreed with my mother, and I don't need to ask her anymore today." ”

The remaining three girls all said yes.

When the two of them arrived at the Huanxi Building, the building was still empty, but it was rare for a few big men to sit drinking melon seeds.

Qiao Mei only glanced at her casually a few times, and Lin Xueyi took her hand and followed the path last time to the three-story top pavilion.

Xu is too quiet here, Qiao Mei heard her heartbeat, she pressed her chest to calm down, and saw Lin Xueyi looking back at her curiously, and reached out to drag her in.

The two of them are playing against each other, holding the white chess pieces in their fingertips, and the knuckles are slender and protruding slightly.

Qiao Mei couldn't help but feel a beat in her heart, Xie Huaijin had already spoken out to let Lin Xueyi, who was saluting, get up, and she hurriedly bowed down, so she could hear his voice like pure snow: "No need to be polite." ”

She raised her eyes, and the two of them met for a moment, and Qiao frowned, as if he had said this to her the most......

"Your Highness, you don't have to keep a straight face, otherwise," Qin Chu took a black piece and replaced a white piece on the chessboard, only to hear him say softly and slowly, "Miss Qiao should be afraid." ”

Fear?

He?

Xie Huaijin's eyes were stunned for a moment, but he regained his expression in an instant.

Hearing him joke like this, and seeing that Xie Huaijin was unmoved, Qiao Mei's heart was filled with a slight feeling of grievance.

Seeing that the atmosphere was awkward, Lin Xueyi hurriedly came out to play a round, and she said with a smile: "Your Highness asked me to invite Meimei this time, there must be something wrong." Qin Chu...... Come out and come out ......" she glanced at Qin Chu hard.

Qin Chuwen smiled, he smiled clearly, he nodded at Xie Huaijin, and then withdrew from the pavilion with Lin Xueyi.

The room fell silent for a moment, and Qiao Mei only felt that the roots of her ears were slightly hot—as she would do when she was nervous. She crampedly pinched the embroidered handkerchief in her hand, Xie Huaijin raised her head in surprise, and there was obvious incomprehension in her eyes.

He was silent and said.

"Sit."

sat down decently, and at this time, Qiao Mei felt that he had not been so serious when he married Qi Medal in his previous life.

Xie Huaijin's face has always been cold, and Qiao Mei has forgotten when he became so dislike of interacting with people, and his expression is not overflowing.

Qiao Mei said softly, "Has Your Highness noticed what I wrote in the letter?" Or...... How can you believe that what I say is true? ”

"Yes."

He threw down a word lightly, as if he didn't think it was appropriate, and then said, "There are five younger brothers around my father, and the matter of raising the face Gu is done by people of different races." ”

Xie Huaijin's eyes raised slightly, and Qiao Mei saw a hint of affirmation from it, "So what you said is true." ”

"Thank you, Your Highness......" The corners of Qiao's eyebrows and lips had just swirled a little pear vortex before being interrupted coldly by Xie Huaijin, "You should tell me how you know." ”

Qiao frowned, and her voice became a little tougher: "Please also ask Your Highness not to use the posture of a prisoner, the courtiers could have said these words differently from Your Highness......"

Hearing the imperceptible grievances in her words, Xie Huaijin frowned with some annoyance, but Qiao Mei saw it as a displeased look, and she said firmly: "The courtiers have no words, Your Highness forgives her sins." ”

Xie Huaijin's cold face finally cracked a little, mixed with a sense of helplessness, he raised his hand and poured a cup of tea for Qiao Mei, and thought for a moment before saying, "It's lonely...... The attitude is a little tough. ”

He grew up in the military camp since he was a child, and when the noble sons of the families in the capital were still dressed in silk clothes and riding on the streets, he had already taken a knife and arrows and leveled the cities that wanted to invade Nanqi.

His hands were stained with blood, and the barb-stained soft whip shook off the fine work that refused to make a sound...... Naturally, he developed the evil aura on his body, and taught others to be afraid when they saw it......

But the girl in front of him is only fifteen, and he has learned the scene of letting Xizuo confide the truth in the deep boudoir, so he naturally can't use such a tough questioning attitude......

Qiao Mei tilted her head slightly, her hand tightened the veil, how did she know that this person was so soft?

But if he asked, Qiao Mei had already prepared, she said: "It was me last year, that is, the time I fell into the water, and I often had a dream after waking up." "Naturally, she can't tell Xie Huaijin about her rebirth.

"In a dream...... First of all, Your Highness was in trouble, and then Your Majesty fell ill, and several princes fought for it...... Later, Xiliang took the opportunity to attack again and again and captured several cities in Nanzhou......"

Xie Huaijin said: "There are also there, how can you not stop Xiliang?" ”

It is also Qiao Yi's word, Xie Huaijin has a good relationship with him, so it is not surprising to call Qiao Mei like this.

She laughed at herself: "Your Highness, you are gone, for the sake of power, it is naturally impossible for any of the four princes and five princes to accommodate our Jingguo Mansion." ”

Xie Huaijin's eyes were quenched with forbearance, and he said, "These will not come true. ”

Qiao Mei looked at him seriously and said, "But the courtiers are so frightened that they can't sleep all day and night, so I implore Your Highness to pay more attention to the people around you......"

"Also, a man named the Order of Qi, he ...... It is likely to have something to do with Xiliang......"
