That night, not only Liu Shengsheng was uncomfortable sleeping, but most of the people around her also fell into insomnia.
Especially Du Qianyi in the princess's mansion couldn't fall asleep until midnight.
Now she has fallen into a state of madness. In the dead of night, all the candles in the bedroom are lit. Looking from the outside, she can still be seen walking around inside.
Qing Shui stood nervously at the door, "Your Highness, you have to get up early tomorrow, so you'd better rest quickly."
"How did you let me, the princess, rest? That woman has come back. She is living in the palace now, and she may be talking bad things about me to my mother! How can I, the princess, sleep at this time?"
Qing Shui said nervously: "But you haven't rested for several days..."
"What should I do? What should I do now? With the mother's temperament, even if that woman confuses right and wrong, the mother will believe her. When I enter the palace tomorrow, I will definitely be questioned. What do you think I should do? ?」
Du Qianyi walked nervously around the room, "It's all that useless old thing's fault. Not only did his plan fail, but he also exposed me. It's so abominable! Even the prince brother has changed his mind about me now." , how can I still gain a foothold in the palace?"
"The incident with the city lord is not the main thing. The main thing is that the woman cured the flood and won a lot of people's hearts. This is the scary thing, because based on this one thing alone, the emperor will accept her very quickly... …”
Qing Shui sighed and said helplessly: "The most important thing right now is to have a good rest. Only by taking good care of your body can you cope with it well..."
"See His Majesty the Crown Prince!"
"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince!"
Before Qing Shui could finish her words, the sound coming from outside scared her so much that she immediately shut her mouth.
Qing Shui quickly stepped aside, and Du Qianyi immediately stepped forward and opened the door.
"Brother Prince, why are you so late and haven't rested yet?"
Seeing Du Tingyun's face, Du Qianyi's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly had a bad premonition, "Brother Prince, what's wrong with you?"
After traveling for such a long time, it stands to reason that Du Tingyun should be fast asleep in the East Palace now. Why did he come here in the middle of the night?
Could it be that he came to question himself?
Perhaps he had guessed something, but before Du Tingyun could speak, Du Qianyi said aggrievedly:
"Brother Prince, I have heard about the matter of returning to the city as the city lord. I know that many people are doubting me now and say that I want to ruin my sister's reputation. But there is a misunderstanding about this matter. I don't care about it at all. I only knew that I had been slandered by that city lord after I heard someone talk about it..."
Du Tingyun frowned, "I'm not here for this matter."
Du Qianyi's heart thumped again, isn't this the matter?
What else could it be?
Du Qianyi breathed a sigh of relief, but his expression was still tense, "Then why is the prince brother so late and still hasn't rested?"
"You still haven't had any rest?"
Du Tingyun's voice was surprisingly cold.
This inevitably made Du Qianyi feel even more panicked. Could it be that over this period of time, her prince brother had also been brainwashed by that woman?
"Brother Prince, are you starting to hate me because of the rumors outside?"
Du Qianyi lowered his head in grievance and stood there without moving for a long time, "I don't know what to say. I feel like I haven't done anything, but I seem to be hated by everyone in a short period of time... "ap.
Du Tingyun exhaled, walked to the front and found a seat to sit down.
"You should know why I chose to find you at this time."
Du Qianyi was confused when he heard this sentence, "Brother Prince, what does this mean?"
"Your Highness, please stop pretending to be stupid! Your Highness chose to come at this moment because most people are asleep at this time, and talking to you at this time is less likely to arouse
Too many people are paying attention, and everything is for your sake. You should take the initiative to explain what you have done. "
Bai Cang spoke coldly at the door, and at the same time took the initiative to close the door, and at the same time asked all the servants at the door to disperse.
At this time, Du Qianyi felt even more panicked, "Brother Prince, I really don't know what I did wrong. Can you explain it clearly?"
Du Tingyun clenched his fist tightly, "Let me ask you, who wiped out the He family back then?"
This question made Du Qianyi freeze on the spot.
what's the situation?
Why did he suddenly ask this question?
That He family had disappeared long ago, why did he suddenly mention it?
This question was asked so suddenly that Du Qianyi didn't have time to react and just stayed in place so stiffly.
And Du Tingyun also saw everything from her reaction, "Qianyi, I have always felt that you are kind-hearted. Even though you have done many bad things in the past two years, you are always forced to do so. The deepest part of your heart is... You are still gentle, but now I know that you have been..."
"Brother Prince! That's not the case. Please listen to my explanation!"
Du Qianyi interrupted him nervously, and immediately stepped forward to hold his hand, "I did hear about the He family being exterminated, but this matter has nothing to do with me, I just know it, no……"
"What about Banxia? What happened to her was not your fault?"
With this sentence, Du Qianyi's face turned pale.
what happened?
Why did Pinellia ternata appear?
What type of situation is this?
Afraid of being spotted by Du Tingyun, Du Qianyi quickly denied, "I don't even know what happened to Sister Banxia. How could I..."
"Qianyi! Do you know how tired my eldest brother is all day long? Just because of you, my eldest brother came here without even taking a break. He also specifically chose this time to protect you for the last time. If you are not honest, , Big brother is really going to give up on you!"
Du Tingyun finished speaking angrily and threw her hand away.
Hearing this, Du Qianyi burst into tears and squatted on the floor while crying.
Du Tingyun took a deep breath, "Stop crying, get up and speak clearly."
"Brother Prince, no, you are my eldest brother! Although we are not related by blood, eldest brother, you have watched me grow up since I was a child. Do you still not know if I am that bad? Woo hoo hoo... "
Du Qianyi cried so wronged, "Although I don't know what happened to Sister Banxia, but my eldest brother is so angry, I know that something bad must have happened to her, but why, my eldest brother thinks it's those *** What about the matter? I spend most of my time in the capital, how can I do so many bad things?"
Du Tingyun stood up helplessly, "Forget it, since you don't want to say it, just do it yourself."
After saying that, he started to leave.
Du Qianyi panicked immediately and quickly stepped forward to hold his hand, "Brother, don't leave, I'm so scared!"
