Chapter 347 Absent-minded
Facing those expectant eyes, Jamel Xiao was speechless.
When she asked him for help that day, she made it very clear that she wanted to help His Highness find this life-saving old friend, and also wanted to persuade him to come to Dazhou to serve.
Before this is done, you must not tell anyone else, especially His Highness.
He also said that His Highness must be impressed, and don’t always ignore women.
Xiao Jingnan's eyes were dim. What if Qianqian knew that His Highness didn't take the woman seriously, but that he didn't take the woman next to him seriously?
However, this might just be the case. His guess.
After all, that person is already the imperial concubine and has an heir with Qi Jun.
The Lord heard that she was pregnant, and sent someone to send a congratulatory gift——
Xiao Jingnan frowned. The two countries had just reached a truce, and in order to stabilize Qi Jun, the Lord sent a congratulatory gift. It makes sense, but this person is her.
The Lord clearly knows the truth, so how can he ignore His Highness's mood?
Xiao Jingnan stood attentively, something was vaguely wrong.
"Brother, have you found it?" Xiao Qianyi shook Xiao Jingnan's arm anxiously, "The dignified prince of Yinyue Mansion, whenever he talks or does things, he becomes So hesitating and murmuring?"
Xiao Jingnan looked into his shining eyes and sighed silently. It is about His Highness's life experience, so he should be cautious.
“Not found.”
Xiao Qianyi frowned: "It was not found?"
Xiao Jingnan responded: "Because it was not found, I don't know how to tell you."
"Oh..."
< br>The light in Xiao Qianyi's eyes dimmed, and she was frustrated and dissatisfied with all her hopes failed, "This person is really mysterious, and even our Yinyue Mansion can't find out."
Xiao Jingnan apologized and reassured: "According to what you said, even Dr. Chen would be full of praise. His medical skills are extraordinary and extraordinary. If you can't protect him, he is an expert who lives in seclusion."
"That's right." Xiao Qianyi didn't doubt that he was there, she lowered her head and remained silent.
Xiao Jingnan couldn't bear it. He had never deceived her before.
He tried his best to force out a smile: "I suddenly remembered that I still have something to discuss with His Highness. You go back to your room and rest first. After I finish my work for the past two days, I will accompany you to Zui Jiangyue. Didn't you always want to go? Are you looking at Hu Ji?”
“Really?” Xiao Qianyi’s eyes lit up.
I heard that there are Orchids in Luoan City. They have high noses, beautiful eyes, and passionate and energetic temperaments. They are very different from Han women.
It's a pity that she is not allowed to go to a place like a wine shop, even if her father and brother let her go on weekdays.
Xiao Jingnan reassured her again and again, and Xiao Qianyi left with peace of mind.
When Xiao Qianyi turned around, Xiao Jingnan no longer had any smile on his face. After thinking about it, he decided to go to His Highness's study.
He thought and took steps forward.
Wait until Qingzi’s figure disappeared.
Xiao Qianyi's head poked out from behind the stone door. This Xiao Jingnan hesitated for a long time, just to tell her that nothing was found? And for the first time, he promised to take her to a wine shop?
Hmph, he must be hiding a secret from her.
Xiao Qianyi raised her lips and actually learned to lie to her.
Although she was angry, she felt strange. What is it that cannot be told directly to her?
Xiao Qianyi straightened up, glanced a few steps away, and waved to the maid in the distance.
Immediately, a maid came forward. Xiao Qianyi whispered a few words of advice and turned around to go to Xiao Jingnan's residence.

On the small stove in the study room, there is a delicate small copper pot, the slender spout is puffing with white steam.
Yu Wenjue took off his heavy long muzzle and outer robe, wearing only loose casual clothes.
A secret letter lay on the desk, with a small kapok flower painted on the seal as before.
He opened the letter and read it in just a few glances.
Not only was the time of the letter wrong, but the content was also really surprising.
Yu Wenjue threw the letter into the small drawer and looked at the snowy scene outside the window. A scene flashed through his mind, so far away that he could hardly tell whose memory it belonged to.
In fact, no matter who it belongs to or what impact it had, it is a thing of the past.
“Your Highness.”
Yu Wenjue turned his face sideways, and Qingzhu approached holding a tea cup. Yu Wenjue took the tea cup, his eyebrows were slightly darkened, he pursed his lips, and asked: "Where is Guansong?"
Qingzhu raised his eyes and replied: "I'm still in Wuling with Guyu and others. Mansion."
Yu Wenjue frowned and smiled: "Tell them that they don't have to stay any longer and set off back to Jinye another day."
Go back to Jinye?
Qingzhu was stunned for a moment, lowered his eyebrows, and said respectfully: "Yes."
After the death of the former general Lu Xiu, Guan Song and others took the fake corpse and found a feng shui place in Wuling Mansion on the border of Zhou Kingdom. Treasure land, buried the body, and guarded the fake tomb for more than half a year.
In the past six months, people looking for Lu Xiu’s body have come one after another...
It has never stopped. Except for following instructions to steal it once, others None of them succeeded.
Now that someone is gone and there is nothing in the fake tomb, wouldn’t it be even more suspicious?
Qingzhu hesitated for a moment, then raised her head and glanced at the person in the corner. No matter when or where she was, she had never seen Yu Chiyuan express an opinion. He always kept a straight face and remained silent.
It is estimated that even if His Highness asked him to draw his sword and kill himself immediately, he would not ask more questions.
Qingzhu's heart skipped a beat and he simply said: "Your Highness, please forgive me for talking too much -"
Yu Wenjue raised his eyebrows slightly and laughed softly, then narrowed his eyes and looked at her: "You are both If you know you are talking too much, you should not speak. You just need to learn to obey."
Qingzhu's face turned pale, he bit his lip and knelt down: "Yes, I have overstepped my bounds, and I am willing to be punished."< br>
"Yeah." Yu Wenjue lowered his eyes and drank tea.
Qingzhu bowed and stepped back. Another maid passed by and came in to report.
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince is here."
Yu Wenjue stared at the foam in the tea soup and frowned.
After a while, the maid led Xiao Jingnan in.
"Your Highness," Xiao Jingnan thought for a while and decided to ask clearly.
Yu Wenjue put down the tea cup and stood up with a smile in his eyes: "You probably haven't had time to have dinner yet, right?"
What he was about to say was interrupted unexpectedly. Xiao Jingnan opened his mouth and paused. After a moment, he replied: "I haven't returned to the courtyard yet."
Yu Wenjue nodded slightly: "Then we will use it together."
Hearing this, the maidservant hurriedly went to prepare.
Xiao Jingnan followed Yu Wenjue out of the study.
A meal does not take long, but it seems extremely long.
Since he moved into the palace, he has never had a meal with His Highness. He originally wanted to test out His Highness’s tone of voice before eating, and by the way, mention something about His Highness’s past relationship, but who would have thought that His Highness would start over again? We ate quietly until the end.
It is true that food cannot be spoken.
Xiao Jingnan thought that only he and Qianqian knew about the past, and Qianqian still knew only a little about it. As long as they were careful about their words and actions, there was no need to say some things.
Xiao Jingnan was full of worries and really had no appetite.
Finally, after finishing the meal, Gongsun Xu came again.
Xiao Jingnan looked over. His Highness almost forgot that he had something to say, and only listened to Gongsun talking about the gossip of the various aristocratic families in Luo'an City.
Gongsun Xu and His Highness are not people of right and wrong. Why would Gongsun Xu make a special trip at night just to talk about insignificant gossip?
Xiao Jingnan was a little puzzled. Suddenly, his mind suddenly moved, and he finally understood the reason why His Highness said he would not lead troops.
He shook his head secretly, ashamed.
He also mistakenly thought that His Highness allowed him to eat in order to shut his mouth.
His Highness clearly knew that Gongsun Xu was coming, so he asked himself to stay and listen, so that he could know his true intentions.
Xiao Jingnan felt relieved when he heard Gongsun Xu ask over there: "When will your highness set off?"
Xiao Jingnan was surprised: "Departure?"
Gongsun Xu looked at him funny: "Didn't His Highness just say that he was going to Jinye?"
