Xia Qianfan's pace suddenly slowed down until Chen Zhenzhu walked in the same row with him, and he slowly started again. Not all novel websites are the first romance firsts, just search 151+Kanshu.com and you will know.

Chen Zhenzhu walked beside him, holding the clothes he gave him with some anxiety.

"Today, thank you Second Highness!" Chen Zhenzhu said in a low voice.

She felt that Xia Qianfan seemed to have something to say, but she kept holding it.

After hearing Chen Zhenzhu say, Xia Qianfan replied slowly, "You have helped me too, we will clear up."

Chen Zhenzhu smiled at the corner of her mouth and thought to herself, is he just trying to say this?

Chen Zhenzhu nodded, "Okay, we'll clear up."

None of them wants to owe anyway.

After a while, Xia Qianfan said again, "Are you not curious about that matter at all?"

Chen Zhenzhu didn't understand and looked up at him, "What's the matter?"

Xia Qianfan looked back at Lingze and Xia Ningruo who were following behind him, and was sure they could not hear it before speaking, "My master and the handkerchief,"

Chen Zhenzhu suddenly realized that Xia Qianfan was talking about this.

The owner of the handkerchief, Guiren Yan!

Chen Zhenzhu didn’t know what Xia Qianfan meant to ask this, but if he knew more, he would be more dangerous. Chen Zhenzhu still understood this truth.

She looked at Xia Qianfan's eyes and smiled slightly, "It's not my business, I never want to waste those brain cells. Since the Second Prince asked, I might as well say it straight. You can rest assured that I am not a gossiping person. Since I helped you that day, I will never mention it again, and I will not mention it to anyone."

Xia Qianfan's gaze also fell on her, and his eyes contained deep, serious and complex emotions.

"Don't you believe me?" Chen Zhenzhu said as she looked at his puzzled eyes.

Xia Qianfan asked, "Why do you want to help me?"

Chen Zhenzhu answered without hesitation, and she said, "Not to mention that you have helped me to relieve the siege, just talk about me as a person, I am born a kind person and I can't see anyone falling down in front of me. If I don't help you that day, Concubine Yan will definitely die. If my little effort can save a life, then I am happy to do it. The premise is that you are not a person with great sins. If it were someone else, I would have done that."

Xia Qianfan nodded, "I only saw your kindness!"

Chen Zhenzhu heard the sarcasm in his words and replied, "If you let others bully you and accept it, that's not called kindness, that's a fool."

Xia Qianfan laughed and said, "So, you are a kind and smart person."

Chen Zhenzhu shook her head modestly, "I'm a basically kind person. Actually, I'm not too smart,"

"How did you and Xiao Shijiu meet?" Xia Qianfan asked.

Chen Zhenzhu roughly said the story of her and Xia Ningruo looking at each other, and then said to Xia Qianfan, "Don't you think she is pitiful?"

Xia Qianfan smiled bitterly, "How many people in the palace are so pitiful?"

"At least we all know how to protect ourselves, but she doesn't even know how to protect ourselves. Without the love of her father and mother, or even the affection of her brothers and sisters, she doesn't have a relative or friend around her. Therefore, even the palace maid dares to plot against her, thinking she is a burden and wants to get rid of it. He is your sister, don't you feel sorry for her at all?"

Chen Zhenzhu frowned and said, feeling distressed in her tone.

Xia Qianfan smiled slightly, "Don't worry, I will take good care of her."

Chen Zhenzhu let go of her brows, "Okay, then I'll hand her over to you. When it's okay, I'll go see her."

Xia Qianfan nodded, "Speaking of this, she looks more like your sister."

"In my heart, I do regard her as my sister." Chen Zhenzhu blurted out,

Then, she thought something was wrong and hurriedly said, "I don't mean to marry you, it's just for Xia Xiaohua."

Xia Qianfan smiled and said, "Did I say something? Why are you shocked? Also, what is Xia Xiaohua?"

"I got her a name, the little flower, like a flower, beautiful, sunny."

Chen Zhenzhu said with a smile.

She walked over and pulled Xia Ningruo to Xia Qianfan, "Xiaohua, follow your second brother back first. I will go see you whenever I have time. You must listen to your second brother obediently and not let yourself run out, otherwise I will be angry."

Xia Ningruo nodded, then raised her big watery eyes, "Can't you really be with your sister?"

Chen Zhenzhu nodded seriously, "Yes, follow your second brother well, he will take care of you."

Although Xia Ningruo's eyes were still filled with dissatisfaction, he still nodded obediently and agreed.

Of course, at night, Xia Ningruo was taken away by Xia Qianfan.

Chen Zhenzhu and Lingze returned to their tent, feeling that they had no strength left.

Everything is like a dream, a nightmare.

The next day, a grand opening ceremony was held.

On the wide and flat lawn, singing and dancing, dancing with swords and guns, wrestling and fighting, it was so lively.

Chen Zhenzhu served the emperor aside. She saw that although the emperor looked smiling, she was actually worried.

The faces of the ministers and princes in the court were also different from the naturalness of the past. Chen Zhenzhu was very curious about what happened, which made everyone so abnormal.

The queen and the concubines did not change much, and no one showed any expression when they fought openly and secretly.

After sitting for a while, the emperor had to go back to the imperial tent to rest first.

The emperor has been with Qi Zhonghui for the past few days, and he has not even turned the sign at night.

Chen Zhenzhu was going to go back to serve, but the emperor said, "It's rare to come out, so you can stay and play."

Then, Qi Zhonghui accompanied him back.

Lan Yan watched the emperor leave, but she couldn't sit still.

She stood up calmly and was about to leave when the queen called out.

"Gui Ren Lan, I heard that your piano is very good. I am so happy today. How about you playing a song?"

Lan Yan was naturally very unhappy, but when the Queen spoke, she never dared to disobey.

She leaned over and replied, "I am very willing to go back to the Queen. However, I didn't bring the piano out this time. After returning to the palace, I will definitely play a few songs for the Queen."

The queen smiled and said, "So that's it!"

Then the Empress looked at a palace maid beside her and said, "I remember that you brought the Qin when you came?"

The palace maid replied hurriedly, "I took it back to the queen. I thought that the queen would suffer from insomnia when changing places, and would be better when listening to the piano, so I brought it."

The queen looked at Lan Yan with a smile, "Then the noble man, let's play the piano of the girl in the palace first."

This is an insult to Lan Yan.

Lan Yan's little face turned as if it was so blue, but she didn't dare to say anything, and she still smiled, "I'm following the order."

The palace maid was just a last-class palace maid, so the piano she handed over would not be much better.

However, Lan Yan dared not to refuse to answer.

Walking to the middle, Lan Yan sat down and gently plucked the strings.
