At this moment, Zhang Jixiang determined one thing, the emperor is eyeing His Royal Highness King An.

"Zhang Jixiang, go and invite King An into the palace." Just when Zhang Jixiang was secretly pondering, Xiao Ce gave another order.

Zhang Jixiang didn't dare to slack off, and immediately went to King An's Mansion to invite someone in person.

More than half an hour later, Xiao Yi entered the Heart Cultivation Hall and asked Xiao Ce for peace.

"I haven't thanked you much for saving the concubine this time." Xiao Ce didn't look like he had any shelf, his eyes were unwavering, and he couldn't see any emotion, so he was fixed on Xiao Yi.

The King An in front of him is a little younger than him, but there is not much difference. His eyebrows and eyes are affectionate, suave, and although he likes women, he doesn't look frivolous.

If he is fair, putting aside his personal prejudices, he has to admit one thing, Xiao Yi's face is very good, and it is easy to please women.

This was the first time Xiao Yi had seen Xiao Ce look at himself so carefully, he looked calm on the surface, but sweat oozed from his palms.

Xiao Ce said that he was Qin Zhao's life-saving benefactor, but he didn't show that he was grateful to him, but that Xiao Ce's scrutinizing eyes made him tremble.

Is Xiao Ce suspicious of something?

"I've gone to ask Zhao Zhao to come over. You are Zhaozhao's life-saving benefactor, so let her personally thank you. At this time, Xiao Ce said again.

Xiao Yi responded politely: "The younger brother saved the concubine just by raising his hands, and if it were someone else, he would also help like the younger brother." ”

But that's true. By the way, how many Assassins were there when you met the carriage that hijacked Zhaozhao? Xiao Ce took a leisurely sip of tea, in a casual tone.

This question was not difficult for Xiao Yi, so he said truthfully: "Brother Ruochen remembered correctly, there were seven people at that time. ”

"Why don't you leave a living mouth?" Xiao Ce followed up and threw another question.

It seems to be a very common question, but it makes Xiao Yi feel aggressive.

"Several robbers have very high martial arts, and the guards in the courtier's mansion tried their best to kill, and it took more than 20 guards to kill those robbers. At the moment of life and death, the younger brother failed to think it through, and hoped that the emperor's brother would forgive him. Xiao Yi bowed his hand and was ashamed of himself.

Xiao Ce gave a handful of help, and then said: "I have to meet you to help me get out of danger this time, I can't thank you too late, how can I blame?" Speaking of which, you and I haven't played chess for many years, and today is a rare opportunity, you accompany me for the next game......"

Qin Zhao had just walked outside the Heart Cultivation Hall when he heard Xiao Ce's voice coming from inside.

According to her understanding of Xiao Ce, Xiao Ce still suspected that Xiao Yi had ill intentions towards her, otherwise she would not have asked Xiao Yi to enter the palace and play against Xiao Yi.

She didn't want to face Xiao Yi at all, because she thought about what happened after she was kidnapped, and suddenly found that she had really been awake for too little, and she was too groggy when she fell asleep, and she was completely unconscious.

During this period, she didn't know what Xiao Yiruo had done to her.

This reminded her of the time when Xiao Yi borrowed drunkenness to slighten her, she always made excuses for Xiao Yi before, but now it seems that she didn't dare to face the facts, Xiao Yi did it on purpose that day.

If Xiao Yi wanted to scare her when she was awake, then Xiao Yi would not be polite to her when she was asleep......

"What are you thinking?" Seeing that Qin Zhao was not leaving, Bao Lan asked softly.

Qin Zhao took a deep breath and forcibly lifted his spirit: "Let's go." ”

She told herself it wasn't a big deal. Even if Xiao Yi acted excessively on her after she fell asleep, her body knew that Xiao Yi could not really have substantive movements towards her.

She has experienced personnel, and no matter how bold Xiao Yi is, she doesn't dare to really attack her.

It seems that only by admonishing herself in this way can she feel better.

But when she thought of what Xiao Yi might have done to her when she was unconscious, she panicked, and this feeling was like stealing people behind Xiao Ce's back.

Xiao Ce's suspicion is so serious and her possessiveness is so strong, if it is determined that Xiao Yi has misbehaved while she is asleep, not only will Xiao Yi be torn apart by Xiao Ce, but she will probably also be torn apart, right?

In this way, she can only comfort herself, everything is just her cranky thoughts.

When Qin Zhao went to the warm pavilion, his mood had calmed down as before.

Xiao Ce and Xiao Yi were playing chess, she glanced at the chess surface, this game had just begun, and it was still in a stalemate on the surface.

Xiao Ce raised her head at this time and looked at it lightly, she felt weak in her heart, and could only reluctantly look at Xiao Ce: "The concubine has seen the emperor, I don't know why the emperor is looking for the concubine?" ”

Xiao Ce pulled out a smile, he was handsome, this smile was like a spring breeze, but she felt cold inexplicably.

"Zhaozhao, come and sit next to me."

Qin Zhao obediently handed his hand to Xiao Ce and sat silently beside Xiao Ce.

Xiao Ce was still holding her hand, and the strength was not great, but she couldn't break free.

Because of her weak heart, she didn't dare to struggle, anyway, she just had to be a vase here.

Xiao Yi didn't know what tricks Xiao Ce was playing at first, until Qin Zhao came, Xiao Ce naturally held Qin Zhao's hand. The two didn't seem to shy away from him, their fingers intertwined, looking intimate, and there was a touch of lingering taste.

Thinking that he is famous, there are many beauties in King An's mansion, but he has never held hands with a woman so truly in his life.

He realized in hindsight that Xiao Ce seemed to be asserting his ownership of Qin Zhao in front of him.

"King An, you lost." Xiao Ce's voice finally brought the confused Xiao Yi back to his senses from his trance.

Xiao Yi smiled: "The imperial brother has superb chess skills, and the younger brother is willing to bow down." ”

"One more game, you're losing concentration." Xiao Ce opened his lips indifferently, and after he finished speaking, he looked at Qin Zhao, his eyebrows and eyes were as gentle as water: "Zhao Zhao will feel bored?" ”

Qin Zhao didn't feel bored, but she felt frightened, and of course, she didn't dare to tell the truth.

"Watching the emperor play chess is fun, how can it be boring?" Qin Zhao's eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and his smile was lovely.

Xiao Ce pinched her tender cheeks, but his gaze was fixed on Xiao Yi's face: "King An, let's start." ”

Xiao Yi was in a trance for a moment, and soon he concentrated and tried to ignore Qin Zhao's existence.

He thought that his calculations were perfect, but he underestimated how much Xiao Ce cared about Qin Zhao. There is no doubt that Xiao Ce is suspicious of him, otherwise Xiao Ce would not have brought Qin Zhao over to show his affection.

Xiao Ce's move was nothing more than an attempt to punish his heart.

He is not a person who can't hold his breath, otherwise he wouldn't have been stinging for twenty years, but he still made Xiao Ce notice him because of his selfish desire for Qin Zhao.

Qin Zhao sat for a long time and was a little tired, so she moved her body, and Xiao Ce looked at her: "But tired?" ”

Qin Zhao didn't hide it: "After sitting for a long time, your back hurts, why don't the concubines get up and take a walk?" ”

Xiao Ce looked at her tenderly, and finally let go of her hand.
