He turned around and stumbled out of the royal study, staggering a little, "I will go to xieqing to look for her, I want to catch her myself."
"Royal Uncle!"
Yan Jue could not hear Yan Shuo calling him and continued to rush out.
"Someone, come!"
"Here."
"Follow the eighth prince, don't let anything happen to him."
Yan Shuo pinched the center of his brows with a headache. He had finally settled the old rules of the imperial court, he never expected such a thing to happen.
King Jing Palace —
"What!"
When Liu Ruo Qing heard the news of Liu Tian Xin's death, she was so shocked that she jumped up from her chair, "Princess Tian Xin died?"
"Mn, this morning, the Emperor received a document sent over from the xieqing. The princess' hall that Princess Tian Xin stayed in was set on fire, and Liu Tian Xin was burned to death."
Yan Yuan's face did not look too good either, his eyebrows were knitted tightly from start to finish.
"Then what about Eighth Brother, what about him? A few days ago, I heard him say that he was going to request for an imperial decree from the emperor! "
Liu Ruo Qing looked at Yan Yuan worriedly. Actually, even she didn't need to ask to know that Yan Jue was definitely not in a good condition right now.
That guy usually looked sloppy, but every time he mentioned about marrying Liu Tian Xin, the smile on his face would deepen. She could feel that he really wanted to marry Liu Tian Xin.
Yet, eighth brother was unable to accept such a situation.
"He wanted to run to the xieqing to find Liu Tian Xin, but he was stopped by the Emperor. Right now, he is imprisoned in the Duke Palaces and doesn't see anyone.
Yan Yuan walked to her side and sat down. Both husband and wife fell into silence for a while, and then saw that Liu Ruo Qing was looking towards Yan Yuan, and said: "Why do I feel that this is too much of a coincidence? Furthermore, she still has martial arts. With her ability, she should have been able to protect herself when the fire broke out. "
Liu Ruo Qing felt that this matter was a little strange, and when she revealed his suspicions, Yan Yuan also nodded in agreement, "That's right, unless someone did something to her body."
Thinking about Yan Jue, who was currently in pain and sorrow in Prince Lu's Mansion, Liu Ruo Qing began to frown worriedly.
When she and Yan Yuan had quarreled previously, eighth brother had comforted her quite a bit. Now, his condition was much more severe than when he had quarreled earlier.
How could something so big happen in just a month?
Let alone Yan Jue, even she couldn't accept it.
That girl who looked exactly like her, how could she just leave like that?
Somehow, in Liu Ruo Qing's heart, she was panicking and jumping very quickly. Her heart seemed to be in pain, to the point that she couldn't help but want to cry.
Unknowingly, her face was covered with tears.
"What happened? Why are you crying?"
Yan Yuan did not expect Liu Ruo Qing's reaction to be so huge. Her face was filled with tears and he scared her so much that she started to panic.
Liu Ruo Qing was also stunned for a moment. Reaching out to touch it, she discovered that her face was cold, and had unknowingly been covered in tears.
"I... I don't know. I just know that Princess Tian Xin is dead.
She reached out her hand to wipe her tears, at the same time, looked at Yan Yuan, and said, "Maybe it's because the two of us look the same, so we have a telepathic connection with each other."
She joked, the pain in her heart that was difficult to breathe still did not subside.
"Are you sure she's dead? But I still feel like she's not dead yet. Where is her corpse?
She tightly held onto Yan Yuan's hands, both of her hands were actually trembling.
Yan Yuan frowned, and looked at Liu Ruo Qing's expression, seemingly lost in thought. An impossible thought flashed past his mind, but he did not think too much into it, upon seeing her nervous and serious expression, she held her hands and comforted her: "Before I went back to my residence, I had already sent people to xieqing to find out about this matter, there will be news regarding this matter in the next two days, don't think too much, I think that Eighth Brother's life is not going well, let's go take a look at him."
Liu Ruo Qing nodded, pursed her lips and thought for a moment, then said: "Let's wait for the people you sent back, even if we went to look for Eighth Brother now, he might not be willing to see us."
"Alright, I'll listen to you."
Seeing that Liu Ruo Qing was not in a good mood, Yan Yuan was worried. Liu Ruo Qing knew that her emotions had affected Yan Yuan and changed the topic.
Oh yeah, I heard that Miss You Miao has been doing pretty well in front of you recently, what do you think?
Hearing that, Yan Yuan's face darkened, he reached out to pinch her cheeks, and said: "What do you think I feel?"
"Tsk, how would I know? It's not like I'm a worm in your stomach."
Liu Ruo Qing pouted and turned her face away.
's soft laughter came from beside his ears, "Then do you mind if I give her some response?"
Liu Ruo Qing was startled, then she humphed with arrogance, "I don't mind, even if you marry her, she's just a concubine, can she still beat me?"
"That's true, that's …"
He bent down, and moved closer to Liu Ruo Qing's ear, the corner of his lips slightly raised, "Then, I won't be courteous anymore."
Liu Ruo Qing didn't know what Yan Yuan was planning to do by saying "you're not courteous", but she knew that he definitely wouldn't do something that would disappoint her.
"Go. You must not be polite."
In the next two days, Liu Ruo Qing went to the Prince Lu's Mansion a few times, and sure enough, she was stopped outside the door by the people from the Prince Lu's Mansion.
"Please forgive Crown Princess Jing, my Prince is …"
The butler of the Prince Lu's Mansion looked at Liu Ruo Qing with a troubled expression.
"Mm, I understand. You must keep an eye on your Prince, and definitely don't let him do anything stupid."
"This old servant understands. This old servant will make people keep an eye on Your Highness, but, Crown Princess Jing …"
The butler opened his mouth and hesitated to speak.
Liu Ruo Qing saw something, and asked: "Are you worried that your Prince will continue to be depressed?"
The steward frowned and nodded honestly. "You know, wangfei, the prince …" Before this old servant saw him, I used to nag him at the Duke Palaces every single day. When Princess Tian Xin returned to the xieqing, he would have immediately gone to propose marriage.
The steward sighed, "If I had known it would turn out like this, the prince would never have let her go back."
Liu Ruo Qing's heart tightened, that familiar pain once again intruded into her heart.
Actually she understood Yan Jue's methods. Liu Tian Xin was a princess of the xieqing, so if he wanted to marry her in broad daylight, she definitely wanted her to marry him from the xieqing.
If she was allowed to stay in the Prince Lu's Mansion, then no matter how unreasonable the reputation was, people would always gossip about Liu Tian Xin. This was also the reason why no matter how reluctant he was, he wanted her to return to the xieqing first.
