Chapter 55: The Human Heart
Qin Xue has been missing for two days, and the King of Jin sent someone to find the entire Yunjing, but there is still no news of her, and the King of Jin has exploded in Yunjing for a while because of the news that the Lord of Changning went to Qingcheng Mountain to ask for an elixir to cure his illness and that the eldest lady of the Jin Prince's Mansion framed the Lord of Changning and ran away from home.
"County Lord, now there are rumors everywhere outside that you have the reputation of saving your father by enduring humiliation." Dong'er came in from outside with Qin Changning's favorite honey grapefruit tea, with a thick smile on her face, "The eldest lady is a wicked person with evil retribution!" It's best not to come back for the rest of your life, and you actually did that kind of evil thing to the county lord, but fortunately, my prince woke up, otherwise your reputation will definitely be ruined by her, the county lord! β
"Dong'er, don't talk nonsense." Qin Changning's face sank, she also felt strange, if Qin Xue just wanted to avoid the punishment of King Jin, then she should come back later, and there was no news at all, it was really hard to figure out what she was thinking.
"The slave knows it's wrong." Dong'er admitted her mistake, but in her heart she still thought that the eldest lady who was going to kill the county lord was not a good person.
"The slave thinks that what Dong'er said is right, I don't know if the disappearance of the eldest lady is a real disappearance or a fake disappearance, and now I don't know where I am at ease." Lu Qi rubbed Qin Changning's shoulders and whispered.
Qin Changning raised his eyebrows, picked up an orange and peeled it, put a petal in his mouth, and the sweet and sour bloomed in his mouth, "Dong'er, is there anything new outside?" β
She has been busy studying the books in the library for the past two days, and she doesn't care much about the things outside, and all she hears is what Dong'er heard from other girls.
"The slave maid heard that the envoys of the Qin State are probably going to enter the capital in the next two days, and now the capital is heavily guarded, so I am afraid that the envoys will encounter any accidents."
Qin Changning nodded thoughtfully, calculating the days seems to be tomorrow's and tomorrow's affairs, thinking that in the previous life, she still wore her eldest brother's clothes to go out to see the excitement, I don't know what kind of interesting things will happen this year?
"Lu Qi, bring my cloak, I'll go and say hello to my mother."
Lu Qi answered and went to bring Qin Changning's cloak, and after putting it on Qin Changning seriously, he went to Furong Garden with Qin Changning.
Qin Changning's maids all perform their duties, Lu Qi is almost all waiting by Qin Changning's side, Cardamom They are almost busy with other things in the yard, although Chang Anxuan is not big, but several people are still busy every day.
As soon as Qin Changning arrived at Furong Garden, he heard King Jin and the eldest princess talking about Qin Xue, King Jin was very angry about Qin Xue's disappearance, if she didn't come back, it would be okay, if she came back, the other two girls in this mansion might not have a good reputation.
"Yesterday, my mother was making trouble again, saying that Xue'er had delayed Yao'er's reputation, and said that I would not be allowed to find Xue'er again, and let her fend for herself outside." King Jin was a little annoyed.
The eldest princess sighed, "Mother still only has the eldest brother's child in her eyes." β
She didn't want Qin Xue not to come back, if she was sent back by a woman, it would be okay, if she was sent back by a man, not to mention that her own reputation would be ruined, the reputation of the other two girls in the Jin Palace's mansion would also be dragged down by her. It's just that how could she say this in front of King Jin.
"I don't think she dared to take it for something wrong, so she deliberately hid!"
Hearing this, Qin Changning walked in and greeted the two, "Ning'er greets my father and mother." β
King Jin, who was in a bad mood, immediately had a smile on his face when he saw his daughter who had cured his illness, and asked Qin Changning to walk in front of him, reaching out and touching Qin Changning's head, "Ning'er, why are you here?" β
"Father, Ning'er wants to go shopping on the street tomorrow, so I specially came to ask you and my mother for permission." Qin Changning had a bright smile on his face, "I heard that the envoys of the Qin State are going to enter Beijing tomorrow, and Ning'er also wants to go and see the excitement." β
King Jin's face was a little bad, "Ning'er, tomorrow the envoy enters the palace, it will definitely be crowded, anyway, on Chinese New Year's Eve, you are going to enter the palace with your father and mother to participate in the palace banquet, why don't you go?" β
"Father..." Qin Changning hugged King Jin's arm and shook it, and said coquettishly, "Ning'er really wants to go and see the excitement, you just let Ning'er go, or you let Ling Xiao follow the child, the child is guaranteed not to be in a crowded place, okay?" β

The Three Princes' Mansion.
Sima Xuan opened his eyes and stretched out his hand to rub his eyebrows tiredly, some embarrassing pictures flashed in his mind, yesterday he knew that it was the prince who went to meet the envoys of Qin State instead of his father, and he was angry in his heart, so he drank a little wine, but the fire in his heart could not be extinguished, and when he returned to the bedroom, he actually saw a woman lying on his bed, I don't know if it was alcohol or what, he, a person who has never been very fond of women, gave a woman like this...
He glanced sideways at the woman who was still sleeping next to him, and smiled coldly, although this woman was very young, but it made her eat the marrow, and now he was completely awake, but he still wanted to ravage this woman well, yes, this woman has been a woman since last night, although he was drunk, but he could clearly feel that he had turned this girl lying on his bed into a woman.
Sima Xuan rarely took pity on the jade and stretched out his hand to stroke the woman's hair covering her face, and suddenly, his hand slammed up, jumped up from the bed, grabbed the person on the bed, and his voice was furious, "Why are you here!" β
Why did Qin Xue, who had been missing for two days, lie on his bed! And he also slept with Qin Xue!
Qin Xue opened her eyes vaguely, the discomfort of her body made her frown, and slowly her eyes became clear, she screamed and hugged the quilt, and looked at Sima Xuan in panic, "Three... The Three PrincesΒ·Β·Β· What's going on? How are you in Cher's bed? β
"Shouldn't this sentence be asked by this prince!" Sima Xuan's face was gloomy, although Qin Xue was only fourteen years old, she was very well developed, as soon as Sima Xuan looked up, she saw the two jade rabbits on her chest, and her eyes darkened.
Qin Xue's hands were trembling, she went back to the Jin Palace, but because she hadn't heard the news of Qin Changning's arrest, she waited outside, and after seeing Jing Zhaoyin leave with a disgraced face, she thought that she had to escape, otherwise she would be caught back, and she would have no way out, who knew that she was knocked unconscious as soon as she ran out of the Jin Palace.
She knew what happened last night, she woke up when Sima Xuan entered the room, she couldn't tell her mood at that time, she was a little nervous, but more expectation, although she was still young, but if she became Sima Xuan's woman, then even Qin Changning wouldn't dare to do anything to her casually, and her father might try to make her the third princess!
So she not only obeyed what the third prince did to her, but also...
Thinking of this, Qin Xue was heartbroken, and when she raised her head, her face was already full of pear blossoms and rain, "Brother Third Emperor, what are you talking about, here... Isn't this the Jin Palace? β
