Of course it was Ao Zhi's voice.

I have a good impression of this polite prince of Bohai. Compared to his innocent and cunning sister, this prince gives people a much more impression.

So he saluted him: "Criminal, it's been a long time since I was gone."

The palace maid beside me said hesitantly: "Criminal, why have you been here?"

Then I remembered that this place was considered an inner palace. I just saw Xie Houqi. It was obvious that he had entrusted his sister to walk here. But Ao Zhi, he had just walked through the palace gate and he should not be able to come in as usual.

Ao Zhi said, "Oh, when I saw Miss Yan here, I took two more steps and wanted to come over and talk about the past."

After saying that, he became quiet.

I could feel that he was looking at me. These days, I have long been used to the surprised atmosphere of old people when they first saw me. Sure enough, after a while of silence, his voice was a little heavy: "How could Miss Yan--"

Before he could finish speaking, I said calmly: "I encountered some changes."

"What kind of accident?"

“…”

"Is it because I lost my relatives?"

It was rare that he would ask this, and there seemed to be a little sadness in his tone of being unable to get rid of it. I don’t know if he remembered his sister again, but I was silent for a moment and said lightly: “It’s almost the same.”

The palace maid next to me probably felt it was very inappropriate, so she said to me: "Miss Yan, it's getting late, it's time for you to go back."

I thought about it, nodded, reached out to let her hold my hand, Ao Zhi immediately saw something and said, "Your eyes--"

I smiled faintly.

After a while, I heard his long sigh full of regret and said, "Miss Yan has a medical treatment? There are some famous doctors in our Bohai Sea that can treat eye diseases."

Before I could say anything, I heard Pei Yuanxiu's voice coming from behind—

"I've already done this."

I hurriedly turned around. Although I couldn't see it, I felt him walking towards this side. Perhaps because there were a lot of people behind me, the wind was stronger than before.

As soon as Ao Zhi saw him, he immediately saluted: "Greetings to the Emperor."

Pei Yuanxiu walked to me, reached out and pulled my arm, pulled me back to his side, and said, "Why did the prince come to this place?"

Ao Zhi said aside.

I felt that Pei Yuanxiu seemed to have looked at me, then looked at him, and then said, "It is certainly appropriate to talk about reminiscing about the past, but his light body is not good. I have been asking famous doctors from all over the country to come to the palace to treat her. She needs to rest."

It means that it is not convenient to see outsiders again.

Ao Zhi naturally also heard his implicit voice and said, "Yes."

Pei Yuanxiu's tone slowed down a little, and he said, "Okay, you go to the Imperial Study Room first to wait for me. I still have some things to discuss with you."

"yes."

After Ao Zhi said that, he said goodbye to me, and then turned around and left.

When he walked away and couldn't even hear the footsteps, I turned around and felt Pei Yuanxiu looking at me. His gaze was not as hard as he could, but it gave me a layer of stuff than usual.

After a moment of silence, he said, "Why are you here?"

Of course I wasn't asking this.

The two palace maids next to them were so scared that they immediately fell to the ground and said, "When you say to the emperor, Miss Yan has just gone to the concubine's place."

"Yes, Miss Yan said she was tired of walking, so I stayed here with her."

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately said to me: "Are you tired?"

I thought he was going to ask something else, but I didn't expect to ask this, and paused before saying, "I took a break and it's much better."

Then he said, "Then go back first, it's still cold here."

"Um."

After saying that, he took me back to the inner cabinet.

Although it was almost spring, it was still much more comfortable to have a warm place in the room. When I returned to the room and sat back on the couch, I sighed softly.

Then he heard him say, "What did you say to Ao Zhi?"

“…”

I thought he had forgotten this, but I didn't expect that he would still remember it.

However, I also know why he remembers it.

Ao Jiayu's death is a fatal pit for him.

At least from the moment he seemed to need Ao Zhi, or in other words, the power of Bohai King, and to win over them. If Ao Zhi knew that Ao Jiayu's death was designed by him, things would probably not end well.

If it were someone else, I think he would have been silenced long ago.

But it was me who knew the truth in this world.

I said lightly: "Don't worry, I didn't say anything."

“…”

"Crown Prince Ao is alone in the capital, with a weak power, and I don't want him to encounter any unexpected situation."

“…”

He calmed down.

The only sounds of my breathing and he were left in the room, which seemed a little tense. I didn't know how he would react after saying these words, but I was confident that he would ask the two palace maids, and I could clearly know that I was not talking nonsense to Ao Zhi.

After being silent for a while, Pei Yuanxiu suddenly said to me: "Don't worry."

"Um?"

"I will not kill innocent people indiscriminately."

“…”

"Not anymore."

I looked at him in surprise.

Although I can understand this sentence and know that it was something I hoped that he could understand and do it countless times, but in this situation, he suddenly said this to me, which made me a little confused.

What's the meaning?

Perhaps feeling that I was a little stunned, he said softly again: "You have a good rest."

After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave.

As soon as he walked to the door, I suddenly stopped him again. He stopped and turned around: "What's the matter?"

I said, "I heard from the Imperial Concubine that you have ordered to send additional personnel to Tianjin."

"Yes."

"You really want to listen to my advice?"

He seemed to smile. Although I didn't know how many points in his smile were true or false, or how complicated his smile was, he slowly walked back to the edge of the couch, leaned down to look at me, and asked with a very serious question: "Since I asked you, I'm naturally willing to listen."

I thought about it and said, "Then, if I advise you again, will you still listen?"

He came over and almost all his breathing was blowing on my face: "What are you going to persuade me?"

“…”
