Wei Qing curled her lips in a stiff manner, "This servant will naturally have my head smeared with sweat, I am loyal to His Highness, the Crown Prince."

Xiao Hanqi did not seem to be satisfied with this answer.

Wei Qing frowned, thinking that the eunuch shouldn't be interested in him, right?

Having clearly seen the conjectures in Wei Qing's eyes, Xiao Hanqi could not help but curl his lips, and the depression in his heart also dissipated by more than half.

"Can you play chess?"

Just as Wei Qing was about to blurt out that sshe would, he suddenly thought of an extremely important matter.

In this competition of talents between the four kingdoms, everyone had clearly seen her chess style.

After all, Xiao Hanqi was a crown prince, not trash.

If he found any clues from the chessboard, he would definitely die.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly shook her head.

Xiao Hanqi was not very surprised. To be able to enter the palace and become a eunuch, one must have a poor family. How could they have the free time to teach him how to play chess?

The two of them looked at each other for a while, then Xiao Hanqi said: "I'll teach you, how about it?"

How could Wei Qing refuse? She only made up her mind, to just pretend that she didn't have a brain.

The hidden guard brought over a bottle of medicinal wine. Xiao Hanqi was about to help Wei Qing wipe the medicinal wine when a report came in from the outside.

"What is it?"

"Your Highness, the Tutor Jin is here."

Xiao Hanqi frowned, "Alright, I understand."

Wei Qing frowned, ever since Jin Qiao’er's incident, the relation between the Tutor and Xiao Hanqi had been extremely stiff.

Why did he come here so late at night?

Originally, he thought that Xiao Hanqi would probably go see the Tutor Jin immediately, but he didn't expect that he would actually take the medicinal wine and help her wipe the medicinal wine.

Wei Qing immediately retreated back, how could she allow Xiao Hanqi to touch him?

If Xiao Qingqian found out, then who knows what kind of trouble he would cause!

"Crown Prince, this servant is the one who smeared the medicine himself!"

Xiao Hanqi's face turned green, "Are you trying to take advantage of me?"

Wei Qing clearly saw the dark clouds surging in his eyes, and she nervously swallowed her saliva.

"Your Highness, the Tutor Jin is waiting for you!"

Xiao Hanqi's brows were filled with loathing, "I know."

"Your Highness, the current Emperor is still unconscious. Although the Prince Chu is grounded, he is still a strong competitor for the throne! In this kind of situation, the Crown Prince should do what he can to win over all the powers and not make enemies with them. "

Xiao Hanqi suddenly stopped his attempt to pull off her pants.

That made sense.

Because of Jin Qiao’er, his relationship with the Tutor Jin had become very subtle, and now, the Tutor Jin had come over on his own accord, which could be considered beneficial to him.

"Your Highness, the reason the Tutor Jin came late into the night was probably for the Crown Prince's Consort's matter."

Hearing that, the temperature around Xiao Hanqi immediately dropped.

"Didn't you just enter the palace? How did you know about this? "

Sensing the aura around his body that felt like it was in the middle of winter, Wei Qing forcefully swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"Your Highness, didn't this servant say that I entered the palace through a side door? Naturally, I know a bit about the matters of the palace." Wei Qing smiled obsequiously.

Xiao Hanqi judged her for a while and raised his eyebrows, "You wipe the medicinal wine yourself."

Watching Xiao Hanqi as he walked further and further away, Wei Qing let out a long sigh.

The Tutor Jin had already been waiting for a long time. Because of Jin Qiao’er, the Tutor Jin had wanted to draw a clear line between himself and Xiao Hanqi.

"This old official pays his respects to Your Highness, the Crown Prince." When he finally saw Xiao Hanqi, the Tutor Jin hurriedly stood up and greeted him respectfully.

Xiao Hanqi looked at Tutor Jin with cold eyes.

Because of Jin Qiao’er, he felt that he had lost all face. On the other hand, Tutor Jin didn't feel that he had spoken up for Jin Qiao’er.

If the golden bean had not advised him like this, he would not have come to see Tutor Jin.

"Tutor Jin is here tonight about Qiao Er?"

Tutor Jin was stunned, then he forced a smile, "Since the crown prince has already guessed it, then I will not beat around the bush."

Xiao Hanqi smirked, "Tutor Jin's plans are working out!"

The Tutor Jin's forehead was drenched in sweat, "This old subject does not understand the meaning behind Your Highness's words."

"Before, the Tutor Jin was resentful that I did not plead for Qiao Er, but now, seeing that His Majesty is unconscious, I'm most likely going to ascend the throne, so …"

Tutor Jin indeed harbored such thoughts.

If Xiao Hanqi succeeded in taking the throne, then, Jin Qiao’er, this concubine, would most likely be conferred the title of Fourth Consort.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Hanqi actually spoke those words without caring about his face at all. This made him feel as if he had been slapped over a dozen times on the face by someone else.

"Tutor Jin, you are upset that I did not plead on Qiao Er's behalf, but if I did not plead, would Qiao Er's crime of deceiving the monarch, and her fake pregnancy as a favor, be so easy to bear that she would just go to the Shadow Myrtle Temple to train?"

These words were said with vigor, and every word from Xiao Hanqi made his heart beat faster.

Xiao Hanqi smirked, "However, she's still my concubine, so I won't let her stay in the Shadow Myrtle Temple forever."

Hearing this, the Tutor Jin heaved a sigh of relief.

Xiao Hanqi stood up, "It's late, Tutor Jin will go back first!"

Tutor Jin bowed immediately.

"As long as I succeed in taking the throne, Qiao Er, the only concubine, will naturally return from the Shadow Myrtle Temple. Tutor Jin should understand what I mean, right?"

As the saying goes, to be able to rub three times with a single slap and Tutor Jin was so shrewd, he naturally understood the meaning behind his words.

Just as he expected, Tutor Jin was first startled, then immediately expressed his loyalty.

Xiao Hanqi looked at him meaningfully for a moment, then walked away and left.

Returning to the hall, Xiao Hanqi raised his eyebrows when he smelled the thick smell of medicinal wine in the air.

"Better?"

Wei Qing hurriedly said, "This servant thanks His Highness the crown prince for the medicinal wine."

Xiao Hanqi asked the servant to move the Go board over.

Wei Qing's mouth twitched. She thought that since the Tutor Jin came by, he would be chatting a lot with his, but unexpectedly he returned so quickly.

Xiao Hanqi grabbed a handful of chess pieces from the chess box, "Do you know what this is?"

Wei Qing naturally wanted to see the show to the end, "This servant is retarded."

"This is called guessing first. You can also learn from me and grab a handful of chess pieces."

Wei Qing replied with an "Oh". She reached her hands into the chess box and grabbed a bunch of chess pieces. She was wishing that she could grab all the chess pieces in the chess box.

Xiao Hanqi could not help but pinch Wei Qing's nose, this action, caused the two of them to be extremely shocked.

He stared at his hands for a while, confused as to what was happening to him!
