"But you are in charge now. Since you are in charge, why don't you just take care of it to the end?" Yan Junuo suddenly reached out and grabbed Xu Qingmo, "I am your cousin, you can't just ignore me like this!"
Xu Qingmo laughed: "Cousin? Do you still remember the time when you asked Xu Qingling and Lin Shaoyang to frame me in order to become the crown princess? I have done my best to be like this. Is it possible that you still want me to do it? Are you falling out with the royal family?"
Yan Junuo's body stiffened, and he held Xu Qingmo's hand and slowly put it down: "I didn't interfere in Xu Qingling's matter at all... The reason why I appeared there was just a coincidence... You know, If you didn’t know, you wouldn’t have let me go at that time, you…”
Xu Qingmo looked at Yan Junuo in front of him with cold eyes, as if he were looking at a stranger at the end of his road: "Then you still remember that this road was chosen by you, and you worked hard to get it. , now that you say no, you don’t want to leave, maybe you still want me to help you lead this way.”
"If you didn't want to care about me in the first place, then why did you bring Zhu Han back!" Yan Junuo stared at Xu Qingmo as if looking at the last life-saving straw, using various ways to persuade Herself.
Xu Qingmo took a deep breath: "Actually, I never thought about taking care of you from beginning to end. It's just that Zhu Han is coming back, and I don't want the prince to continue to sit down steadily. He doesn't have the slightest bit of an emperor. He is a talented person, but he has been sitting in that position for a long time. I need someone to help me pull him down from that position. Anyway, it’s good that you and Zhu Han are in front of me. I can complete this matter without staining blood. You can escape a terrible life, Zhu Han can take revenge, and kill three birds with one stone, why don’t I do it?”
Yan Junuo's expression gradually faded, and she suddenly understood that Xu Qingmo was just using them to accomplish something she wanted to do. Although she was disappointed, she felt a little more confident.
The reason why Yan Junuo came to question Xu Qingmo was actually because she was scared. She was afraid that her and Zhu Han's plan would be exposed. She wanted to make sure that this matter was good for Xu Qingmo, as long as it was good for her. , she will definitely find a way to make this matter go smoothly, and Xu Qingmo has the manpower and financial resources, so she will do this matter easier and safer than them.
Xu Qingmo took a deep look at Yan Junuo and patted her shoulder: "I told you once that this high platform cannot be achieved easily. As the saying goes, if virtue is not matched, there will be disaster, Prince She has no virtue or talent, but she relies on the favor of the late queen to sit on a high platform. Even so, she has no talent or appearance, let alone any noble status and background, so she sits in the position of the crown princess based on a little calculation. It’s just a pity that even if you sit on it, you can’t keep it.”
Yan Junuo lowered her head. Xu Qingmo's words were full of ridicule. She just felt disappointed in her heart. If she had been in the past, she might have been angry because of what Xu Qingmo said, but now she just wants to use She ran away from the prince as quickly as possible, and she even began to miss the days when she was with the scholar.
Although the scholar has no power or wealth, he is sincere to her and cherishes her. Now she just wants to settle this matter quickly and return to him. He has no money, but she does, and he has no power. , she has!
After getting rid of the prince, she can say that she is too sad and find a way to stay away from this ghost place. Then she can sleep with her scholar and have a few more children. How happy it is.
Xu Qingmo didn't know what Yan Junuo was thinking, and didn't want to know. He glanced at her and turned to leave.
Meng Hetong was waiting not far away. When he saw her coming, he took out a peony flower from his arms like a treasure: "Does it look good?"
Xu Qingmo is a layperson. She doesn't like plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums. She prefers elegant peonies, which are delicate, luxurious, beautiful, a little tacky, but beautiful.
Xu Qingmo took it with a smile: "The peonies in the Royal Garden are all precious varieties. If you just picked them like this, aren't you afraid that the Queen will blame you?"
"As the saying goes, if there are flowers, you must break them off. Don't wait until there are no flowers to break off branches. Beautiful flowers match beauties. The Queen will not blame you." Meng Hetong laughed. In the past, she might have thought such a smile was frivolous, but now look at it Yes, it feels full of sincerity.
Xu Qingmo felt that he was so confused by this kind of emotion that he actually felt that Meng Hetong was sincere. He was really right about the saying that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Although he was mumbling in his heart, Xu Qingmo still took the words: "Hold it for me!"
"Okay!" Meng Hetong was naturally happy, took the flowers and put them on Xu Qingmo.
The corridor was a bit long, so the two of them walked slowly and leisurely, not in a hurry to go back. Meng Hetong was a little curious: "Why is Yan Junuo looking for you?"
"It's not the prince's business!" Xu Qingmo sighed, "Actually, I didn't expect that the prince would beat her. Although he didn't have any imperial talents, he was also a man who had read the books of sages. If a woman takes action, she will really lose the face of a scholar."
"Didn't you give her any advice?" Meng Hetong frowned, "I heard that several women came to the prince's house and fascinated him. His Majesty lost his temper because of this matter this morning. In the end, it was my uncle who went The general called out for him to attend the state banquet in the evening."
Xu Qingmo shook his head: "Those women have nothing to do with me. Yan Junuo chose this path herself. Now she is crying and saying that she can't go on, but what does it have to do with me? We two Although we are said to be relatives, the blood on our bodies is different, so there is no need for me to offend the royal family for her!"
What Xu Qingmo said was completely justified, but Meng Hetong felt that this matter might not be that simple. You know, Xie Suxian and Xu Qingmo had a sworn hatred. He might not have known it before, but now he also has In the memory of the past, Xu Qingmo would never let the prince go so easily.
Seeing that Meng Hetong suddenly stopped talking, Xu Qingmo turned to look at him: "For Xie Suxian, falling from that high position is the most painful thing for him. Killing people and killing people's hearts. How could I do this around his back house? It’s unnecessary!”
Although Meng Hetong felt strange, he didn't ask again. He still trusted Xu Qingmo.
