Princess Jing came back to her senses: "How to test?"

"Send a message to the palace, saying that you suddenly dreamed of your aunt, and you always feel uneasy and want to see her. Let's see if my cousin refuses or agrees."

"Okay, I'll send someone to deliver the message tomorrow." Princess Jing agreed, her mood couldn't be any more relaxed.

"Mother, I'm back." Qi Huan strode in. When he saw Qi Shuo and Qi Qiong were there, he smiled and said, "Brother, little sister, you are all here."

With his experience, he will definitely be criticized.

Princess Jing was not in the mood to scold her son at this moment, so she forced a smile and said, "Let's have dinner when we get back. Pearl, go and invite the prince over."

The eldest maid Pearl accepted the order and left, Qi Huan winked at Qi Qiong.

What happened? He was scared!

Qi Qiong silently looked away.

She didn't know if the eldest brother would tell the second brother.

Qi Huan:?

Unable to bear it any longer, he looked at Princess Jing and said, "Concubine, is there something going on at home?"

"It's okay." Princess Jing denied subconsciously.

Even if she believed her eldest son's words and was extremely disappointed with her niece, she was so embarrassed by her maternal relatives that she naturally didn't want to say anything more.

Qi Huan wanted to ask again, but Qi Qiong pulled him back.

Not long after, King Jing came over, and the family gathered together to have a meal, and dispersed when it was completely dark.

As soon as he walked out of the main courtyard, Qi Huan couldn't wait to ask Qi Qiong: "What happened?"

Could it be that his mother found out about him and a few friends secretly going to Jinshui River to play?

It can't be possible. If this is the case, even if it is his birthday, he will inevitably have a meal of fried meat on bamboo boards.

Qi Qiong looked at Qi Shuo.

Qi Huan: "..." So he is the only one who doesn't know?

Qi Shuo had no intention of hiding anything and said calmly: "It's not a big deal. My cousin poisoned my tea and I told my mother and concubine after I noticed it."

Qi Huan stumbled and almost fell over. His eyes widened when he looked at his brother.

Not a big deal?

Qi Shuo reached out and patted his shoulder: "I know you have many questions, but in fact, just remember one thing: stay away from the prince."

His brother's eyes, as deep as the night, stopped Qi Huan from asking any more questions. He nodded, put away his usual laughter and said casually, "I understand."

"Brother, I have another question."

Qi Shuo looked at her sister: "Say."

"Sun Xiuhua offered you tea, how did you hide it from her?"

Qi Shuo smiled slightly: "Speaking of which, thanks to Ah Hao——"

Qi Qiong suddenly said: "I know!"

A good fish skin bag really works wonders, she shouldn’t have refused it in the first place.

"Wait a minute, why are you related to my sister-in-law? Why don't I know anything..."

Qi Huan asked all the way, and the backs of the three brothers and sisters disappeared into the dark night.

Princess Jing stayed up all night and sent someone early the next morning to deliver a letter to Sun Xiuhua.

When Sun Xiuhua heard that someone was coming from Prince Jing's palace, her first reaction was that Qi Shuo had a seizure. She didn't believe a single word of the reason for asking her to go back, so she hurriedly made an excuse to decline.

After hearing the report, Princess Jing's heart dropped, and she fell into the ice cave.

She truly loved her niece. Even though she had no doubts about her eldest son's words, she tossed and turned countless times that night, but she couldn't help but feel a glimmer of hope, hoping that her niece would not do such a thing.

After all, no miracle happened.

Princess Jing smiled bitterly and went to hold the teacup, but her trembling hands failed to hold it firmly, and some tea spilled out.

Qi Qiong worriedly held Princess Jing's hand: "Concubine mother——"

Princess Jing looked at Qi Shuo: "Shuo'er, what are you going to do to Xiuhua?"

"My son has no intention of doing anything to his cousin."

Princess Jing couldn't help but be surprised.

Qi Qiong was even more furious: "Brother, are you going to let anyone hurt you?"

Qi Shuo smiled disapprovingly: "The person who really wants to hurt me is the prince. As for my cousin, it will be difficult for her to have a good ending with a person like the prince. She told her mother and concubine what she did, but she didn't want her mother and concubine to do anything for her in the future.

She is sad."

Qi Qiong blinked and understood what his brother meant.

The fall of the crown prince was the biggest punishment for Sun Xiuhua. But if her mother recognized Sun Xiuhua's true face early, she would not be sad for that white-eyed wolf or even be used.

The eldest brother did not hide this matter. In the final analysis, it was for the sake of his mother.

"But the prince——" Princess Jing felt a huge uneasiness in her heart, which overwhelmed the hurt caused by her niece.

"Leave the prince's affairs to your son, mother and concubine don't have to worry."

Princess Jing nodded, but she couldn't really rest assured: "I haven't told your father about Xiuhua yet."

"There is no need to mention it to my father for the time being."

The emperor was very thoughtful, and for his father, who often dealt with him, it was better not to know. As for the prince, he was not rude when he came and went, so it was time to help him bring about his own destruction.

"Okay." Princess Jing subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

She really didn't have the shame to talk about her niece.

After leaving the main courtyard, Qi Qiong was filled with worries: "The prince has murderous intentions towards his eldest brother. Now he can use shady means to prevent and avoid him. What will he do next?"

Qi Huan lost his vitality: "Yes, he will be the emperor in the future."

Qi Shuo looked at the two of them and his expression became serious: "I tell you this to let you know. If you show it, it will harm the palace. Do you understand?"

They both nodded.

"I understand, I'm just worried about the future——"

Qi Shuo raised the corner of his mouth slightly and looked at the clear and empty sky: "The prince has no virtue and the emperor is dissatisfied. Who can be sure of what will happen in the future?"

Qi Huan and Qi Qiong looked at each other, and both saw shock in each other's eyes.

The weather was fine the next day, and the bright and light sunshine fell on the streets and alleys, and the streets began to become lively.

Qi Shuo made an appointment with Lin Hao to see the flower fields.

The flower field was on the outskirts of Beijing. When Lin Hao saw the endless sea of ​​roses, he was so shocked that he forgot to speak for a while.

"Look, Ah Hao, these roses are of pretty good quality. They should be fine for making floral dew." Qi Shuo picked a bright red rose flower and handed it to Lin Hao.

Lin Hao looked at the brightly colored and fragrant rose flowers and nodded: "The quality is better than those purchased outside."

She stood in the flower field and looked around, as if she was in a dream: "How did you discover this flower field?"

Qi Shuo smiled: "This is the property of Prince Jing's Mansion."

Seeing Lin Hao's surprise, he gave an explanation: "My mother-in-law likes roses. When I first came to the capital, my father bought this flower field to grow roses and roses. When the flowers bloom, I will choose the best ones and send them to the prince's palace for vases."

Lin Hao: "..." What should I do if I suddenly feel that the person in front of me is displeased?

On the prince's side, people had been keeping an eye on Prince Jing's movements since yesterday, so the prince waited until he responded: "Prince Jing took Miss Lin to see the flowers."

Another day passed.

"Prince Jing took Miss Lin to pick flowers."

One more day.

"Prince Jing took Miss Lin Er to go shopping."
