C699 She was too shy to do anything about it

Yan Xiao really had something important to look for Shen Qin at the moment, so he naturally didn't have any spare effort to joke with Shen Chong. Only, he astonishingly discovered that outside of this extremely nervous Teacher Shen, when he heard that he had plotted against her daughter, he had such a huge reaction?

He was slightly dissatisfied as he frowned. He, Yan Xiao, was already so weak that he couldn't even look at him properly?

Shen Qin was also shocked to the point that his own father broke out in a cold sweat. This was the blood uncle of the Kaiser!

This is not an ordinary imperial relative, this is the Kaiser's uncle.

Seeing Yan Xiao covering his lips, he coughed lightly and said: "Calm down outside Mister Shen, this king was just joking with you. This king is already old, and does not deserve to be compared to Miss Shen."

Hearing this, Shen Qin subconsciously looked towards Yan Xiao. She suddenly felt a little sad in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face.

"Did Your Highness need me for something?"

"Yes, there is one thing I need Miss Shen's help with."

Yan Xiao nodded, he did not notice the change in Shen Qin's expression.

"Your Highness, please speak."

"Let's go out and talk."

Yan Xiao looked at Shen Chong and said.

Shen Qin understood what Yan Xiao meant, and after trying hard to reassure him, she finally followed him out of Shen Mansion.

"Pavilion Master, what orders do you have for me?"

She returned to her official look back when she was a subordinate of Yan Xiao.

Yan Xiao did not say anything, and only brought her to a nearby restaurant. After they sat down, he said: "Are you familiar with Crown Princess Jing?"

Shen Qin was startled, but after that, she nodded, "Mn, you're quite familiar with it, what does the pavilion master want to know?"

"I want to know everything about her."

He had examined Wei Shao's spine before. Although it had been reattached, the joints were very loose, so it was obvious that it had been broken in the past two days.

In other words, it was very likely that someone had broken Wei Shao's spine and reattached it before he died.

The person who could perform such a flawless suicide disguise was most likely the person sent by Ol 'Nine.

Furthermore, for Ol'ninth to seek favouritism and kill Wei Shao, he had to protect the person he cared about the most, and this person could very possibly be the Crown Princess Jing.

Although he had not been back in the capital for long, he had heard of how his little brother protected his wife.

When Shen Qin heard these words, her heart tensed up, and her discomfort became even stronger.

She lowered her eyes, nicely concealing her emotions, and very dutifully told Yan Xiao everything she knew.

Yan Xiao knew that Liu Ruo Qing had originally pretended to be Liu Tian Xin and married Yan Yuan. As for her master …

He had never investigated this person before, but now that all his doubts had begun to develop, he began to slowly connect the dots.

It just so happened that Liu Qian Xun had left the capital during the Spring Hunt, and there was no news of him.

"Do you know where Liu Qian Xun is from?"

Yan Xiao asked as he shook his head, "I'm not sure about this, I've never heard the Mr. Liu say it before, but I have privately heard Ruo Qing say that they came from a faraway place. As for the specifics, Ruo Qing also didn't say it."

Shen Qin lifted her eyes and looked at Yan Xiao. He pursed his lips and hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he decided and asked: "Pavilion Master, what do you need to ask Ruo Qing about?"

Yan Xiao looked at her, and shook his head, "I'm still not sure, but go and do something for me. Remember, you must do it quietly, and don't let anyone know."

"What is it?"

Yan Xiao bent down and whispered into Shen Qin's ear. When he spoke, the warm and numb feeling caused Shen Qin's body to become slightly stiff.

At this moment, how could she hear what Yan Xiao was saying to her? She was too focused on being shy and nervous.

"Do you hear me?"

Yan Xiao stared at Shen Qin's dazed face and asked softly.

"Hmm? "Huh?"

Shen Qin regained her senses, and upon seeing Yan Xiao's clear eyes, her face instantly became filled with distress.

She really didn't listen to a single word.

Her eyes flickered as she looked at Yan Xiao and said, "I can … Can you say it again? "

After she finished speaking, she felt that her face was so red that it could drip blood.

Yan Xiao also noticed that something was amiss with Shen Qin. Seeing her red cheeks and twinkling eyes, and thinking about how she spoke to her earlier, she immediately understood what was going on.

He looked at him with a smile that wasn't a smile: "I was so close to you just now. Can't you hear what I'm saying?"

It was because I was too close that I didn't hear anything.

In her heart, Shen Qin quietly sighed, and could only feign innocence as she shook her head, "I … I was thinking of something else. "

"When have I ever taught you that you can think twice when I'm talking?"

"…"

Shen Qin lowered her head, she had nothing to say, what else could she say?

Was she nervous and shy when she said she was too close?

"I'm sorry, Pavilion Master, I won't do it next time."

"Really?"

Yan Xiao raised his eyebrows. Looking at her blushing face which was dripping blood, he actually started to enjoy the show.

"Yes."

She looked up, and saw that Yan Xiao had a smile that was not a smile, she was even more embarrassed, could it be that the pavilion master had seen through something?

"Pavilion Master, can you tell me what happened just now again?"

She quickly changed the subject.

"Alright."

Yan Xiao replied very straightforwardly as he bent his body to get closer to her. Shen Qin's heart tensed up and subconsciously reached out with both of his hands to support his chest. "It's settled then."

If the pavilion master spoke any closer to her, she could guarantee that she wouldn't be able to take his words seriously.

The playfulness in Yan Xiao's eyes deepened, as though he was addicted to it, he said: "What I want to say is a secret, if I don't whisper it into your ear, it will be heard by others."

When he spoke, she was serious and Shen Qin did not suspect anything. At that moment, she could only bite the bullet and nod her head, "Alright then."

An evil smile swept across Yan Xiao's eyes as he leaned over and whispered into Shen Qin's ear. As he spoke, he also looked at Shen Qin's ears which were gradually turning red, deepening the smile in the depths of his eyes.

"Do you hear me now?"

"Mm, listen …" "I heard it."

She lowered her head, not daring to look at Yan Xiao.

It took a lot of effort before she managed to suppress the blush on her face. "Pavilion Master, why did you investigate …"

Realizing that Yan Xiao said that it was a secret, Shen Qin swallowed his words. His bright eyes, however, were still staring at Yan Xiao curiously.
