Chapter 704 Entrust her to her
The King of Qin and the Ninth Prince saluted Chu Junlan together: "I've met the emperor's sister-in-law."
The ninth prince looked at Chu Junlan with a smile, and his attitude naturally brought a little intimacy: "Sister-in-law is going out?" He approached to see the cradle again, and his eyes were curious, "Is this the Sixth Emperor Grandson? I haven't seen it near yet. Now I am the Ninth Uncle."
Seeing that the ninth prince was still old, Chu Junlan couldn't help but chuckled and lifted the cradle to show the ninth prince.
Like a small fan with long eyelashes, it casts two shadows on its white face. Its pink mouth was slightly open, and it leaned its head and leaned against Chu Junlan's arms and slept soundly.
The ninth prince liked his eyes and couldn't help but want to reach out to touch the child's face. Because of his uncle and sister-in-law, it was difficult to get too close to him.
The King of Qin watched for a moment and smiled and said, "It's getting late. Ninth brother, it's time for me to leave."
Chu Junlan asked with a smile: "Where is Your Highness of Qin going?"
The King of Qin smiled and said, "I have asked my father for the decree and I will go to the vassal state. Today I will go out to the palace to go for a walk, and I will also buy some things I want to bring."
Chu Junlan was a little surprised.
Emperor Jinghong was particularly fond of the third prince. Even if the King of Qin had his own vassal, he would often let his son stay in the capital. The King of Qin did not think about leaving for this period of time. Even if he moved the capital, he followed him to Huaijing. How could he suddenly go to the vassal?
The King of Qin seemed to be able to see Chu Junlan's thoughts and said with a smile: "The Sixth Prince is about to be named the crown prince. There are also many serious matters in our vassal states to deal with, and it is not easy to stay in the capital anymore."
The two reasons he said were inconsistent, but Chu Junlan understood that the King of Qin might be trying to avoid suspicion.
The familiar young woman on the side sobbed: "It's all for me."
Hearing this familiar voice, Chu Junlan suddenly remembered who this person was.
Isn’t this Wang Shitong, the daughter of the general of the State?
The general of Zhenguo died in battle in his early years. After Wang Shitong lost her father, she was taken in by the first queen and raised in the palace. She grew up with several princes. She fell in love with the King of Qin, but the King of Qin never married her. In order to wait for the King of Qin, she waited until she was two or three years old and became a real old girl.
However, the sixth prince has a special liking for Wang Shitong.
Most of the conflicts between the King of Qin and the Sixth Prince were also caused by Wang Shitong. After all, the King of Qin had long lost the right to inherit the throne due to his mother's relationship, and Emperor Jing Hong also treated him with more father-son feelings because of his transcendent identity.
Wang Shitong sobbed: "If it weren't for me, you didn't have to rush to go and let the vassal."
When the ninth prince saw Wang Shitong crying again, he couldn't help feeling a little sad and sighed helplessly.
The King of Qin sighed and patted Wang Shitong on the shoulder: "Okay, I was a vassal king, so I naturally had to go to the vassal when the time came. How could I always stay in the capital?"
"Don't comfort me anymore. It was because of me, Xiao Lu, who was targeting you everywhere. If he hadn't interfered with it, you wouldn't have left the capital like this."
Chu Junlan just listened silently, and sighed in his heart. The sixth prince had been begging Wang Shitong but could not. Now that he turned over, he began to suppress the King of Qin.
Chu Junlan was unwilling to participate in the fight between these people, so he said to the King of Qin: "The weather is cold, and if it is not good to rise outside for too long, I will say goodbye first. When will the King of Qin leave Beijing? Please be sure to inform me that I can practice it for you."
After all, King Qin is also the major shareholder of Shenxianjiu.
The King of Qin smiled gently, and his handsome face was sincerely grateful: "It's been around these two days, and you're busy with your business and it's not easy to disturb you."
"It's all my own people, so why bother?"
As soon as Chu Junlan finished speaking, he noticed that Wang Shitong's gaze was staring at him, and the anger and alertness in his eyes were unconcealed.
Chu Junlan was stunned by her and thought to herself that she would say something to the King of Qin, and Wang Shitong would be angry.
Facts have proved that Wang Shitong has indeed taken her anger, and the hostility in her eyes is no longer concealed.
The King of Qin took Wang Shitong's shoulder and raised his voice with a calm face: "Shitong."
Just this sentence calmed down Wang Shitong's expression, and there was a little blood on her face, and she lowered her head shyly.
Chu Junlan couldn't help but be amazed. Wang Shitong was like a little beast in front of the King of Qin. The King of Qin could control her mood with just one word. Judging from the actions between the two of them, they were already very close, but so close, why did the King of Qin refuse to marry her for a long time?
Chu Junlan suppressed the questions in his heart and said goodbye to King Qin, and took Rusheng back to Zhongcui Palace to rest.
In the evening, Xiao Xu returned home, and Chu Junlan told Xiao Xu about the scene he saw in front of the palace gate when he returned to the palace today.
Xiao Xu sighed: "The King of Qin is also a smart person. Leaving Beijing at this time can avoid a lot of trouble. Even if the Sixth Prince targeted him, he would not be able to chase him out of the capital. But he just let go of Miss Wang, which was a little heartless."
Chu Junlan laughed loudly when he heard this, and put his arms around Xiao Xu's neck and said, "How many people can be as infatuated as us Xuxu? A man makes achievements and does not care about his children's love for fame and fortune." The last sentence was particularly sighing.
Xiao Xu frowned and shook his head and said, "Even if he wants to make achievements again, is it a good thing to sit in that position and be a lonely person? What's more, when he is born, there are always some bottom lines that cannot be broken. A woman devotes her youth and feelings wholeheartedly, but when she encounters trouble, she turns her head and leaves. Isn't this ruthlessness or ungratefulness?"
Chu Junlan hugged Xiao Xu's neck and rubbed his cheek against him, like a cat that relied on his master: "That's why I only like us Xu Xu, I don't like those stinky men who have no heart."
Xiao Xu's face was hot when Chu Junlan said it, but he couldn't help but pull out a pleasant smile. He also hugged Chu Junlan's slender waist and buried his head between her neck and rubbed it.
Two days later, Chu Junlan received a post from the King of Qin.
Chu Junlan and Xiao Xu got together to read the post, and Xiao Xu frowned and said, "I don't want you to go."
That childish tone, just like when Xiao Xu used to pretend to be stupid, called himself "Xuxu", made Chu Junlan smile.
"Why, Xuxu is jealous?"
"It's not just that I'm jealous, I don't like you getting too close to this person. The sixth prince was afraid of him. The Cai family also had a grudge against us. If you get close to him, I can't help but let the lunatic son of the sixth prince take you even more anger."
Chu Junlan couldn't help laughing: "Don't we get close to him, and the Sixth Prince and Concubine Shu won't hate us?"
Xiao Xu was choked and said frustratedly: "Okay, I just don't like you talking to other men."
It's really childish.
Chu Junlan was amused and laughed, and took Xiao Xu's hand and shook it: "Okay, don't eat this kind of vinegar. Who am I? You don't know? You have to eat this kind of vinegar, are you tired?"
The tone of coaxing the child was the same as when he was coaxing Rusheng. Xiao Xu's face felt a little hot and he said seriously: "Okay, I won't mess with you anymore. I'll go what I should go."
Chu Junlan smiled and said, "Just ask a few more people to follow me."
Xiao Xu nodded: "I'll let Huo Yeqing take a few more people to follow you."
Chu Junlan naturally agreed.
Xiao Xu was indeed not vague and immediately ordered someone to make arrangements.
The Qin King agreed to a location outside a long pavilion with pleasant scenery outside the west gate of Huaijing.
When Chu Junlan's carriage arrived under the escort of a group of guards, it was already bright. From a distance, King Qin took Wang Shitong and several guards stood by the road outside the long pavilion.
Chu Junlan couldn't help but feel a little surprised. Is the King of Qin planning to bring Wang Shitong with him this time? If this is true, it will be a good thing for Wang Shitong, and it will be worth her sincerity with the King of Qin over the years.
"You are waiting here." Chu Junlan got off the carriage and ordered Huo Yeqing and others to wait on the spot.
Huo Yeqing immediately bowed, and waited respectfully by the side with someone. Chu Junlan walked towards him and bowed from afar: "Your Highness, King Qin."
"I have met the eldest sister-in-law." The King of Qin hurriedly returned the greeting.
Due to his identity, Chu Junlan did not take the initiative to say hello to Wang Shitong. According to the rules of the palace, Wang Shitong should have given him a courtesy first.
But Wang Shitong looked at Chu Junlan's eyes as if she had seen an enemy, as if Chu Junlan had snatched the attention of the King of Qin.
The prince couldn't stand Wang Shitong's rude behavior and scolded him lightly: "Shitong."
Wang Shitong bowed awkwardly: "I have met the eldest prince's concubine."
"Miss Wang is not a gift." Chu Junlan didn't care about her and asked the King of Qin with a smile, "Are you going to set off today?"
The King of Qin nodded and said, "I will turn back to the ground today."
Chu Junlan nodded, looked at Wang Shitong beside him, and smiled and said, "Is Your Highness the King of Qin planning to take Miss Wang with you?"
As soon as these words were said, the expression on Wang Shitong's face became even more ugly.
The King of Qin sighed and said, "If the reputation is not right, how can I ruin Shi Tong's reputation? I am indeed worried about her when I leave the capital."
If you don’t want to ruin the reputation of someone, why do you have to call yourself a name or even make an intimate move like holding your shoulder?
Chu Junlan secretly complained to himself, but he did not reveal it on his face, so he nodded in agreement: "Your Highness the King of Qin is very concerned."
Wang Shitong's tears became more and more anxious, "If you were willing to take me with you, I could not have a status. I have been waiting for you for so many years. If someone talked about me behind my back, I would have been talking about it long ago. I don't care about anything anymore. Even if I don't have a status..."
Wang Shitong sobbed and looked at the King of Qin in a vague way: "Even so, are you still unwilling to bring me?"
The King of Qin looked at Wang Shitong with a calm and gentle look, but there was no other emotion apart from that. He changed the topic and said, "Don't worry, I won't let my sixth brother succeed."
As he said that, he looked at Chu Junlan and showed a little begging: "You also know that the Sixth Prince has always been thinking about Shi Tong. When I was there, I could still take care of Yi Er. Now I am leaving the capital and going to the vassal state. I don't know when I will come back. If Shi Tong has something to do, I have to ask you to help and take care of Yi Er."
