Zhao Hai on the side was quite satisfied with his results: "His Royal Highness's archery technique is not unfamiliar, and it seems that he has not forgotten to practice." ”

Xiao Qi's reaction was very flat, obviously not caring about Zhao Hai's praise.

The results of today's two tests were beyond Xiao Han's expectations, and they also made her completely recognize the reality.

All along, she has been deceived by appearances, and she has never seriously understood Xiao Qi at all.

Just by virtue of his performance, he determined what kind of person he was.

But she forgot that Xiao Qi grew up in the deep palace and could live so big without incident, it was definitely not as simple as he appeared.

As for the laziness and playfulness he shows, perhaps it is the protective color he puts on himself.

Although she is glad that he still has some real talents, in a certain aspect, she is also very chilling.

During the time she returned to Beijing, she asked herself if she was not bad for Xiao Qi, but Xiao Qi never treated her sincerely.

Intellectually, she agrees with his approach, but emotionally she can't accept it.

Especially when she thinks of her previous life, she will only feel more cold.

In the previous life, a large part of the reason why she was imprisoned in the prison was because she actively chose to go in.

Of course, it was to take revenge on Xie Lingzhi, and I wanted to see him collapse and regret. More of it was to drag Xie Lingzhi and delay Xiao Qi to enter the palace.

If Xiao Qi in the previous life had been pretending to use her, then she had to say that it was a pity that Xiao Qi was not a player!

Just as she was guessing, Xiao Qi seemed to notice something.

He walked up to Xiao Han and whispered, "Sister Han, I didn't mean to hide it from you, but these are really useless to me. ”

As for why it was 'useless', he didn't want to talk about it, looking at his not very good face, Xiao Han felt that there was probably something inside that she didn't know.

Xiao Yan didn't care what Zhao Hai thought, he directly pulled Xiao Han and turned away.

It wasn't until the two of them returned to the East Palace that Xiao Qi let go of his hand, found a place and sat down.

As soon as he saw his expression, Xiao Han understood that there was probably a deep inside story in this.

After Xiao Qi asked the palace people to retreat, he didn't find any reason or excuse, but chose to confess.

"Before I was five years old, I didn't know my background, and in order to please my father and queen mother, I was always very diligent and worked hard to learn all kinds of knowledge.

It's just that no matter how much the master and master praise me, my father will always look cold and indifferent.

Not only that, but my health became worse and worse, and I had to stop my studies and recuperate.

Then one time my cat stole my food and soon died, and I began to suspect that there was something wrong with the food.

I told the imperial physician who often came to treat me about it, and later the imperial physician reported the matter to my father, and the entire East Palace was purged.

Since then, under the care of the Imperial Doctor, my body has gradually improved, and the toxins have been completely removed.

And my father also sent Zhao Hai over, the purpose is to protect my safety and prevent me from being murdered.

Later, Zhao Hai accidentally discovered that I had a talent for riding and archery, and in order to save my life, I worshipped him as a teacher and learned to ride and shoot. ”

Xiao Han didn't expect that someone would dare to poison the prince!

But thinking about it, once Xiao Qi is dead, some people's goals will be easier to achieve.

Xiao Qi continued: "Later, after Father-in-law Qian told me about my background, I understood why my father was so cold to me, and why my mother looked at me with a hostile gaze.

Since then, the palace has felt less like a home to me than a giant cage.

I don't know who is trying to harm me, but I know that if I become mediocre, maybe my life will be saved.

After a long time, I think this kind of life is not bad, I can not only survive, but also live a chic life. ”

She didn't think that Xiao Qi said these words in order to deceive her.

If it is true, Xiao Yan's life in the East Palace is indeed very difficult.

Combined, she always thought that the emperor's uncle cared about Xiao Qi very much, but now it seems that this is not the case.

If you really cared, you wouldn't be so cold to him.

Perhaps for the child he adopted, the emperor's uncle's heart is also very complicated.

She comforted: "Although Uncle Emperor doesn't say it on the surface, he definitely still cares about you in his heart." ”

Xiao Qi smiled and said, "You don't have to comfort me, I know better than you what my father's attitude is towards me." ”

"Then why did you suddenly decide to tell me these things?!" Xiao Han was puzzled.

"Maybe it's because you're the first person to treat me sincerely."

When he heard him say this, Xiao Han really felt a little sorry for the young man in front of him.

Aside from his status as a prince, he is just a teenager.

Although her mother was very cold to her and her father did not recognize her, she still had her grandfather and the emperor's uncle who loved her.

But Xiao Yan, apart from her, no one seems to care about him anymore.

She gently patted the young man in front of her and said softly: "Don't worry, no matter what happens in the future, I will stand by your side." ”

Her expression was serious, her words were sincere, and Xiao Qi understood that what she said was true.

"But..."

She changed her words: "You also have to promise me that you can't live in a mess like before." Now that you are the crown prince, you should take on your own responsibilities. Of course, I will also be there for you to help you. ”

"I understand, Sister Han, don't worry, I will become strong in the future. So, you have to promise me that you won't leave me, okay?! ”

Xiao Yan said, and looked at her with fragile eyes, which made Xiao Han's heart suddenly soften.

She agreed without thinking about it: "Since I promised to assist you, I will definitely not leave you." ”

The matter has been said, Xiao Han has no knots, in order to stabilize Xiao Qi's mood, she also deliberately stayed in the East Palace and accompanied Xiao Qi to dinner.

After it was dark, she left the East Palace and returned to Huanxi Building.

After returning to Huanxi Building, it was getting late, and after washing up under the service of the palace people, I fell asleep early.

The next morning, Hongxiu was tying her hair, and when she went out in the morning, she was already used to wearing Taixue's student uniform and tying up men's hair accessories.

Hongxiu said in a low voice: "County Lord, the slave and maid have already done what you ordered. Those people outside the palace have all been arranged in the small courtyard according to your orders. It's just that Lu Yi, who is in the lead, said that he wants to see you. ”

didn't expect Lu Yi to take the initiative to see her, which surprised her.

Thinking that maybe he had something to discuss with her, she thought about it and thought that before returning to the palace today, maybe she could go to the small courtyard first and meet Lu Yi.
