C34 So-called trust

The guards quickly fished out the green bamboo that was trapped in the pond, and Shangguan Qian quickly rushed over. With tears in his eyes, he lightly patted Cui Zhu's face.

"Emerald Bamboo ?"

Li Qingying walked over with large strides, crouched at the side, and extended his hand to feel Cui Zhu's pulse, "This person is not completely dead."

"She's not dead?" Shangguan Qian's eyes lit up, and said in shock, "Emerald Bamboo, Emerald Bamboo..."

"Don't touch her first, go and find an imperial physician." Li Qingying instructed.

Shangguan Qian's face was filled with anxiety as he looked at Cui Zhu, who had knocked them out just now?

Furthermore, he threw the green bamboo into the lotus pond, and why was the concubine Hua here?

"concubine Hua, someone said that he saw a sneaky person running away from there." A rough male voice was heard.

Shangguan Qian could not help but raise his head, as a tall and mighty general stood in front of concubine Hua.

"Did you catch it?" concubine Hua immediately asked, his eyes full of panic.

"No, he escaped. I think that person must be the person the Princess met before." The general spoke calmly.

Shangguan Qian looked at him seriously, and in the end, his gaze landed on the jade pendant by his waist, and his eyebrows knitted.

"Princess, since the matter is already clear, there must be a thief who appeared to cause such a thing to happen." The general said seriously, "This subordinate will do his best to investigate."

"Thief?" Shangguan Qian's brows slightly rose, carrying a trace of ridicule, "This is the explanation that concubine Hua gave me?"

A hint of sternness flashed across concubine Hua's eyes, and he said solemnly, "Everything has been cleared up, Princess, how do you still want me to prove it? Do you want me to apologize to you? "

"There's no need to apologize." Shangguan Qian looked at concubine Hua seriously, a sharp glint flashed past his eyes, and he said solemnly, "I am only pitying my servant girl."

"General Qin, we must capture that thief!" Don't let him die. Extraterritorial! " Although concubine Hua was saying this to General Qin, his eyes were staring straight at Shangguan Qian.

A trace of ridicule could be seen in Shangguan Qian's eyes as he watched the guards take the green bamboo away and sigh.

"This subordinate will do his best." General Qin clasped his hands in promise.

She squinted at the jade pendant tied around General Qin's waist. The ridicule in her eyes became deeper. Was it really that simple?

"Princess, it's alright. Although sister has become a bit stronger, but it's also because of the death of her servant that she became like this." Sun Yuejiao took her arm and comforted her softly.

Shangguan Qian's expression was light as he nodded, "Of course Qian Er knows."

"Anyway, I definitely don't believe that you would kill someone." Sun Yuejiao muttered.

"Third Prince, I'll go check on Cui Zhu. You can go back first." Shangguan Qian said indifferently.

Although she didn't know the whole story and didn't even know why she was framed, she still dared to harm her servant girl, so she had to pay the price.

"General Qin ?" Shangguan Qian caught up with him with a small step, and asked with a tone of inquiry, "Did you see what the thief's palace maid looks like?"

General Qin thought for a moment, then shook his head. "No, that person was too fast. I didn't see him."

"Is that so? It's a pity, it's just that a servant girl died, so not many people in the palace would care about it. I wonder if this servant girl knew something that she shouldn't have known before she was exterminated. " Shangguan Qian said meaningfully.

General Qin's face was cold. "Princess is overthinking things. Perhaps it's just a premeditated murder."

"Is that so?"

Shangguan Qian laughed indifferently, he suddenly bent his body and reached out to the jade pendant on General Qin's waist.

General Qin subconsciously hid for a bit, his expression stiff. "Princess, you ?"

"Nothing, I just feel that this jade pendant is very pretty." Shangguan Qian opened his mouth and then turned around, "General Qin, if you make any progress on this matter, remember to tell me."

"Of course."

Shangguan Qian turned around as the smile on his face froze on his face. With a trace of coldness in his expression, he opened his hand and looked at the touch of crimson red on his finger.

She remembered that the servant girl in concubine Hua was stabbed to death by a knife, and coincidentally, General Qin's jade pendant was stained with blood? Was this a coincidence?

"Hey, Shangguan Qian!"

Shangguan Qian turned his head calmly, looked at Li Qingying who suddenly appeared behind him, and asked calmly: "What?"

"Why aren't you scared? How boring." Li Qingying appeared to be in low spirits, "Forget it, aren't we going to see your little maid? "Come, I'll take you there."

The Lotus Feast had already dispersed, and there were fewer ships drifting around the small pavilion. Inside the small pavilion, she saw a familiar figure.

Shen Ruoqi.

She stood there, looking at something from time to time with a somewhat anxious expression on her face.

Shangguan Qian walked over with an angry face, "Shen Ruoqi, where did you go?"

"Ah, you are here. I have been waiting for you for a long time. Just now, Feng Yi ? Third Prince said that he would return first, and told me to wait here for you. " Shen Ruoqi said with a look of displeasure, and then secretly glanced at the Eighth Prince behind Shangguan Qian.

Actually, he did not have a good impression of this Eighth Prince, he was too direct, and did not give him any face at all.

"Where did you go before?" Shangguan Qian's tone was filled with displeasure, if not for her wanting to find Shen Ruoqi, they might not have encountered such a situation, and Cui Zhu would not have been in danger.

"I'm going to go to the restroom."

Shangguan Qian looked at her deeply, and without another word, he walked onto the boat.

Li Qingying laughed as he boarded the boat and sat beside her.

"My maid's fate is unknown, so I'm not in a good mood. You'd better stay away from me."

"Why should I stay away from you? Shangguan Qian, can you teach me how to draw?" Li Qingying leaned towards her and said with a face full of curiosity.

"Li Qingying! Is it that in the hearts of you noble princes, the life of the palace maid's eunuchs are worthless? Just like an ant? "

Shangguan Qian's eyes were filled with tears, he looked at her with hidden bitterness, and his body trembled slightly. He fought back a shiver.

Li Qingying was completely dumbstruck, he just stood there blankly, then randomly scratched his head, looking a little awkward: "No, I'm not like them."

"That's fine. Since you're different from them, then don't pester me. I'm very annoyed right now." Shangguan Qian turned his face towards the lake surface.

She must investigate this matter thoroughly. She must at least give Cui Zhu an explanation and let the people hiding in the dark know that she was not someone to be trifled with!

At the royal pharmacy, Greenwood lay flat on the bed. Above, his face was pale, and he only had a weak aura.

"Imperial Physician, how is she?" Li Qingying walked forward, looked at Cui Zhu, and said in a low voice, "Why is she still not awake?"

"Her life is saved, but she will need a few more days of rest before she can wake up."

"Alright, thank you, Imperial Physician." Shangguan Qian's expression relaxed a bit. At least she knew that Cui Zhu wouldn't die, so her heart calmed down.

"Li Qingying, who is this General Qin?"

Li Qingying sat on the chair beside him, took a sip of tea, and casually opened his mouth: "General Qin? Second level imperial bodyguard, your martial arts are not bad. "

"Is that so?" Shangguan Qian bit her lips lightly, her face was full of suspicion, "Then what about concubine Hua?"

"concubine Hua? Sun Yuehua is currently being favoured, but I don't like this woman. She's a very capable woman, by the way, why are you asking them? "

"Nothing."

"Could it be that your guess is that they ?"

Shangguan Qian shot a glance at Li Qingying, his tone carrying a sense of vigilance, "Eighth Prince, I'm going back."

I'll find a carriage for you." "But how about you teach me how to draw a painting as a reward?

Shangguan Qian looked at the unconscious Cui Zhu and nodded, "Alright, but you can't bother me."

When the carriage belonging to the Eighth Prince heard the news about the Third Prince's Mansion, it naturally caused a huge commotion. Adding to the fact that the person who alighted from the carriage was Shangguan Qian, there was even more gossip.

"eighth brother, did you send Qian Er back?" Li Fengyi asked with a fake smile, his face carrying a trace of coldness.

Yeah, Qian Er said that he would teach me how to draw, third brother shouldn't mind, right? Li Qingying laughed and said.

Li Fengyi's expression froze for a moment, and then she forcefully pursed her lips, replying with something that was wrong, "I don't."

He squinted his eyes and looked at Shangguan Qian, who was brought into the residence by Zhang Luo's servant, with a face filled with slight annoyance. Since when did she get so close to Eighth Prince? And even made the Eighth Prince call her Qian Er?

"You can go now." Shangguan Qian spoke without giving face, and he didn't even bother to act courteous.

"Third brother, I've never been to your house before. Aren't you going to invite me in for a cup of tea?" Li Qingying decided not to tell Shangguan Qian, and pointed the spear straight at Li Fengyi.

Li Fengyi naturally had no way of refusing. Although their relationship was not that harmonious, it still could not be seen by the commoners outside.

"Please come in."

Li Qingying proudly looked at Shangguan Qian, and walked into the palace.

Just as she walked in, she met Li Danfeng in front of her. She placed her hands on her hips, and asked loudly with a face full of indignation, "Li Qingying? Who allowed you to enter the Third Prince's Mansion? "

"Of course it was Third Bro who let me in. Let me tell you, if you enter the door, you'll be the customer, so don't provoke me."

"elder brother Yi, don't let him in. I hate this person!" Li Danfeng muttered, and then walked to Li Qingying, "If you know what's good for you, hurry up and leave!"

"Tigress, Li Danfeng, do you believe that you won't be able to get married in this lifetime?" Li Qingying's expression became stiff, "Third brother, I suddenly remembered that I still have things to do, I'll come visit you another day."

Li Qingying glared at Li Danfeng fiercely after he finished speaking, and then quickly left.

"Truly a nuisance. I really don't want to see him." Li Danfeng muttered.

Li Fengyi frowned, he stopped Shangguan Qian, and asked with a testing tone, "Qian Er, you and Eighth Prince ?"

"He wanted to send me back himself, there's nothing Qian Er can do about what happened to Cui Zhu."

"Are you blaming me for not protecting you?" Li Fengyi looked at her seriously, his expression changing slightly.

"No!" Shangguan Qian coldly replied as he walked back to his own courtyard.
