Chapter 356: Stumbling Block
"We haven't asked the mastermind behind the scenes, why are we leaving?" Bai Linxia looked at him suspiciously.
"She doesn't know what's really behind it!" Jun Qianchen said indifferently, "Although this woman is scheming, she is not smart, if she really knew who the person behind the scenes was, she would have confessed under torture!" ”
Jun Qianchen had been observing that woman just now, she was impulsive and brainless, and it was easy to show flaws in her actions.
Such a person, how can the other party rest assured and let her know her identity.
He guessed that this woman should have been ordered to pretend to be Bai Linxia, but he didn't know who the person who ordered her was.
This person is somewhat similar to Bai Linxia, which should be the reason why the other party takes a fancy to her.
It's a pity that she is not calm enough, but she is very greedy, and she is destined to not succeed, so the other party will hide it from her.
"She is really stupid, she doesn't know anything, she dares to enter the palace to deceive the emperor!" Bai Linxia snorted coldly.
"In order to live a luxurious life, she has lost her heart!" Jun Qianchen has seen too many people like this.
Qidu is full of the temptation of power, and if you are not careful, you will fall into it.
After Bai Linxia learned that she was just a pawn being used, she no longer cared about this matter.
After all, everyone pays the price for their choices.
She knew that if she did this, once it was exposed, it would endanger her life, but she still did it without hesitation, and now she naturally has to bear the consequences of the East Window incident.
When Jun Qianchen and Bai Linxia left the prison, they accidentally ran into the eldest prince.
When the eldest prince saw the two of them, a trace of cold light quickly flashed through his eyes, but he quickly covered it up.
"Seventh brother, did you come to the Heavenly Prison to interrogate that impostor?" The eldest prince saw their intentions at a glance.
"Well, we still have something to do, so we won't delay the imperial brother!" Jun Qianchen was about to leave after speaking.
"Wait a minute, you have been back to Qi for a while, and our brothers have not been able to reminisce about the old days, why don't you be alone today, please have a meal with you and the third brother, and our brothers get together?" The eldest prince uncharacteristically invited them to eat together.
Hearing this, Bai Linxia frowned without a trace.
The eldest prince had already torn his face with them, and now he suddenly made a good brother, which made Bai Linxia feel very uncomfortable.
He was obviously deliberately pretending to be generous, and the grievances between him and Jun Qianchen were not so easy to solve.
Now, the emperor and the queen want to keep them in Qidu, with the personality of the eldest prince, it would be good if he didn't send someone to assassinate them, and invited them to dinner, Bai Linxia felt that there must be fraud in it.
What's more, they are not in harmony with the eldest prince and the third prince, and getting together will only affect their appetite.
Bai Linxia and Jun Qianchen don't like to wronged themselves.
"No need, we have to go back to the palace to report to our father, the eldest brother, please do it!" Jun Qianchen refused without hesitation.
There is no so-called brotherhood between them, so why should they wronged themselves and deal with him.
Jun Qianchen's crisp and neat attitude made the eldest prince very unhappy, but he didn't show it.
"Seventh brother, we are all a family, the imperial brother did do something unpleasant to you before, and later he will personally pour wine and apologize for you!" The Great Prince blocked their way.
"No need, I didn't pay attention to the previous things!" Jun Qianchen still didn't agree.
Although he and Bai Linxia didn't know what medicine was sold in the Great Prince's gourd, in view of the things he had done in the past, Jun Qianchen knew that he was uneasy and kind.
"Brother and sister, you quickly help Gu persuade the seventh brother, Gu really wants to get together with you!" The eldest prince looked at Bai Linxia Dao.
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, what is the relationship between us, everyone knows it in their hearts, as long as you don't trouble us, we won't fight for what you care about the most!" Bai Linxia pierced his mind sharply.
The eldest prince cares most about the throne, and now although he is the crown prince, the attitude of the emperor and the queen makes him feel uneasy, so he wants to come over to test them.
Of course, this is only one of his purposes.
"Brother and sister, you really misunderstood, Lone sincerely invited me this time, and there was no other purpose!" The eldest prince said with an innocent face.
"Thank you for your hospitality, Your Royal Highness the Prince, the Queen Mother instructed us to go to Fengyi Palace for dinner today!" Bai Linxia made excuses and said perfunctorily.
She didn't believe that with the queen's will, the eldest prince would still be aggressive......
"In that case, Lone won't force you, another day there will be a chance, let's catch up with the old days!" After saying that, the eldest prince walked away.
Jun Qianchen and Bai Linxia glanced at each other, and then left the prison quickly.
After returning to the palace, they all felt uneasy, and secretly found someone to find out the purpose of the eldest prince.
He has always done things with a purpose, and Jun Qianchen has never had brotherly feelings with them.
In the past, they regarded Jun Qianchen as a thorn in their side, and they couldn't wait to get rid of it as soon as possible, but now the attitude of the eldest prince has changed suddenly, and Bai Linxia feels that it is his conspiracy no matter how he looks at it.
Two days later, Bai Linxia learned from the queen that the emperor had been looking for his mother all these years, and even the queen had just learned about it.
The queen thought that he had given up a long time ago, after all, they had both looked for each other at the beginning.
They were the two most noble people in the Great Qi Dynasty, and at the same time they sent people to find Bai Linxia's mother, if she hadn't died, I was afraid that she would have been found long ago.
It's a pity that after she left the palace, she died not long after, and the emperor naturally couldn't find it.
"Does the emperor really value my mother so much?" After experiencing Jun Qianchen's incident, Bai Linxia has always had doubts about the emperor's behavior.
After all, how could a person who could be so cruel to his own son be so affectionate and righteous to half of his adoptive mother?
Bai Linxia thought that the emperor was looking for Aunt He to repay her kindness, but he didn't expect that there were hidden secrets that he didn't know......
"Aunt He is a woman who deserves a lot of respect, not only the emperor, but even the palace is very grateful to her!" The emperor has never hidden this.
"Then how did you and the emperor know that my mother has a child?" This matter has always been on her mind.
"The emperor inquired for a long time, but never found a trace of Aunt He, at that time he and the palace were ready to give up, but by chance I learned that Aunt He had appeared in Qinghe Town, so we sent someone to find out the news......" The queen said about the events of that year.
At that time, their people could not find Aunt He, and the queen was pregnant again, so she was tripped up.
So, she secretly sent her henchmen to inquire, but found nothing.
After many inquiries, the emperor's subordinates learned that Aunt He had indeed been to Qinghe Town, and she seemed to be holding a baby in her hand at that time.
However, since then, the emperor has not found out anything about Aunt He's whereabouts, and he doesn't even know whether her child is male or female.
Over the years, the emperor has never stopped looking for Aunt He, but he didn't expect that he would finally find Bai Linxia.
It's a pity that the person he wants to repay the most has long been unable to enjoy everything she deserves......
"Niangniang, this matter is over, I guess my mother must be very happy to learn the emperor's intentions!" Bai Linxia is not them, and he can't empathize with this.
"When the emperor learned that Aunt He had a child, he privately told the palace that if it was a girl, it would be crowned a princess, and if it was a boy, it would be added to the rank of knight, so that they could enjoy glory and wealth for the rest of their lives!" The queen looked at Bai Linxia lovingly.
"No, I'm not interested in any of that!" Bai Linxia shook his head and said.
"Now that you are the county lord, and Jinzhou is also under your control, this palace believes that you will be able to live the life you like in the future!" In fact, the queen has long seen that Bai Linxia is a person who is indifferent to fame and fortune.
When she designed clothes and jewelry for them in the palace, the queen saw through her mind.
Her eyes were translucent, like a brilliant jewel, and she had no ambition at all.
Both the queen and the emperor knew in their hearts that Bai Linxia would definitely not accept the reward, so since knowing her identity, the emperor did not say a word about it.
He knew Bai Linxia and Jun Qianchen too well, these two people were not thinking about fame and fortune, otherwise they would not have given up the power of Jinzhou so easily......
Bai Linxia knew that the queen was really thinking about herself, so she didn't tell her about her and Jun Qianchen's plans.
For a long time, they had never thought of staying in Qidu.
Now, they are forced to stay, otherwise with their temperament, they would have left long ago.
After they left the queen's palace, their hearts were a little heavy.
obviously didn't want to get involved, but the sky didn't fulfill people's wishes, she turned out to be Aunt He's biological daughter, and she realized from the queen's mouth that neither she nor the emperor wanted her to leave.
At night, Bai Linxia discussed with Jun Qianchen about returning to Qinghe Town.
Bai Linxia didn't want to stay in Qidu all the time, although it was prosperous here, it was not what she wanted.
"With my father's temperament, he won't let you leave just like that!" Jun Qianchen said.
"I really don't want anything, so why can't I do what I want?" Bai Linxia sighed.
"After a while, after all the affairs of Qidu are dealt with, we will leave quietly!" With the emperor's attention to Bai Linxia, when the time comes, even if he is unhappy, he will be helpless.
After all, Bai Linxia was his nurse's daughter, and he was the one he wanted to make amends, and he would never hurt her......
"That's a good idea!" Bai Linxia's eyes lit up.
The next day, the eldest prince sent someone to send an invitation and let them go to the prince's mansion to watch the play.
Bai Linxia and Jun Qianchen refused without hesitation.
The eldest prince was thoughtful, and he might have prepared a Hongmen banquet waiting for them.
"What the hell is this Jun Qianyu going to do, he used to want to kill us directly, but now he suddenly seems to be a different person!" Bai Linxia always felt that he had bad intentions.
"In the past, he always regarded me as a stumbling block and wanted to move away completely, but now that he learned your identity, he didn't want to anger his father, so he changed his strategy!" Jun Qianchen pondered for a while, and then said his guess.
"You mean to say that Jun Qianyu wants to win us over now?" Bai Linxia's face was full of astonishment.
The eldest prince had given them many problems before, and even sent people to assassinate them several times, wanting to take their lives.
Right now, he suddenly changed his style, which Bai Linxia couldn't accept at all.
"No matter what he thinks in his heart, don't bother with him!" Jun Qianchen didn't want to have anything to do with him at all.
They have no friendship other than being brothers in name.
So, Jun Qianchen and Bai Linxia turned a blind eye to his invitation......
