As soon as she left the room, a cold wind blew past Qing Yan and calmed her down.
Should I tell Xiang Mo about this…If I tell him, I'm afraid Gening will…But if I don't tell him, won't the palace be in more danger?
Qing Yan tapped her chin and pondered for a long time before making a decision and walking towards the palace door.
"Sister Qingyan, where are you going?”Xiao Zhan stopped her and asked curiously.
"I…I'm going to get something." Qing Yan smiled awkwardly.
Xiao Zhan was interested,"Take something?" I'll go too."
"No need, I'll go. You should accompany Ge Ning.”She left the hall as if she was escaping, leaving Xiao Zhan alone to look at her departing figure in deep thought.
Qin Chao was about to place the flower pot at the door when he saw Xiao Zhan standing in the courtyard facing the door of the hall, thinking about something.
Qin Chao also looked out of the palace door but saw nothing. She couldn't help but feel a little strange and patted Xiao Zhan.""What's going on? Why are you standing here?"
Xiao Zhan retracted his gaze, his face full of confusion.""Sister Qingyan went out just now and said that she was going to retrieve some things, but she didn't let me follow.”
"Maybe there's something that's inconvenient for you to follow." Qin Chao smiled. Don't just stand there, let's go in.”
Xiao Zhan nodded and looked outside the door. Qin Chao took a few steps forward, but when he didn't hear Xiao Zhan following him, he turned back to call her again. Only then did she quietly withdraw her gaze.
After entering the house, Xiao Zhan still had a thoughtful look on his face, which attracted Ge Ning's attention.""What's wrong? Is there something on your mind?"
Afraid that Xiao Zhan would spout nonsense, Qin Chao spoke first,"This little girl, I'm afraid she still remembers Qing Yan forbidding her to follow.”
However, Xiao Zhan did not notice it at all and argued unwillingly,""I'm not holding a grudge! Sister Qingyan was acting too strange today!”
Qin Chao glared at her, hinting at her to stop talking nonsense.
"What's strange about Qingyan?" Ge Ning asked in surprise.”
Xiao Zhan ignored Qin Chao's warning and complained,"In the past, if I wanted to follow her, she wouldn't stop me. Why isn't she allowed today? She even left in a panic.”As she spoke, she seemed to have thought of something and exclaimed, her eyes widening." Sister Qingyan's previous master is the Emperor. Could it be that the Emperor sent her…Wuwu…"
Qin Chao covered Xiao Zhan's mouth and smiled at Ge Ning,"She likes to talk nonsense. Ignore her.”
However, Xiao Zhan's words were like a knife that had been carved into Ge Ning's heart, leaving a mark.
Qin Chao didn't say anything more. He pulled Xiao Zhan out of the room and reprimanded,"You talk too much! Didn't I say it just now? Qingyan might not want you to follow him, so why are you talking nonsense with Ge Ning?!”
Xiao Zhan pouted and looked aggrieved." But what I said isn't impossible…" Under Qin Chao's angry glare, he gradually lost his confidence and his voice became softer.
Unable to argue with her anymore, Qin Chao waved his hand."When Qingyan comes back, don't spout nonsense in front of her, lest she gets annoyed…"
"I know…" Xiao Zhan lowered his head.
Ge Ning, on the other hand, started to feel uneasy.
Qing Yan had spent more time with the Emperor, so how could a minor noble like her, who had entered the palace less than a month ago, have a higher status than the Emperor in Qing Yan's heart? Ge Ning laughed at herself.
However, if Qing Yan was really a spy that the Emperor had placed by her side, what was the Emperor's motive…What could the Emperor possibly gain from her?
As soon as this thought came out, all the previous wild guesses were overturned, and the huge stone that weighed down on his heart seemed to have been moved away.
Regardless of whether Qing Yan was sincere or had ulterior motives, she would treat her the same way she treated Xi Yan…
