Xiao Xi took all the money to buy a script.

But she dared not say that.

She looked away with a guilty conscience: "I was idle and bored. I went out to buy some food. All the money you gave me was spent by me."

Luo QingHan: "really?"

Xiao Xi nodded vigorously: "yes, yes! There are many delicious food in Chenbao county. I couldn't help it at once. I ate a lot and spent all my money."

Luo QingHan answered faintly, "Oh, that's right."

It seems that he has to ask someone to check and see what Xiao Xi has done behind his back?

Xiao Xixi was afraid that he would ask further questions and hurriedly performed the topic transfer method.

"What's going on in King Chen Liu's residence now? I heard Qiu yuan is dead. How did he die?"

Luo QingHan told Qiu yuan about how he rebelled and was killed by his brother.

After hearing this, Xiao Xi sighed: "it's really a reward for a reward!"

Luo QingHan: "King Chen Liu will be mourning tomorrow. Do you want to go to the palace today?"

Xiao Xi nodded and said yes.

Although she hasn't seen Chen Liuwang, it's fate to meet him. It's nothing to give him a incense.

They left the palace and took a carriage to King Chen Liu's house.

White lanterns hung at the door of the palace.

The whole palace was shrouded in a melancholy cloud, and even the servants who came to open the door to meet them were crying.

Xiao Xixi followed the prince into the palace and entered the mourning hall.

The coffin of King Chen Liu is parked in the mourning hall, and the memorial tablet of King Chen Liu is placed on the incense table.

Qiu Sheng, dressed in sackcloth, knelt beside the incense table, looking numb and empty.

There were many women kneeling behind him. Some of them were the concubines of King Chen Liu, and two were the main wives of Qiu yuan and Qiu Lei.

They were all crying and their eyes were swollen.

Luo QingHan took Xiao Xixi to burn incense and worship.

Qiu Sheng kowtowed in return.

He said in a hoarse voice, "thank your Highness the prince and the concubine for coming to mourn for my father."

In just one month, he lost two brothers and his father. He was even forced to kill his eldest brother himself.

The successive blows made him exhausted and almost desperate.

If his father had not told him to live before his death, he would have been unable to live long ago.

Xiao Xi didn't know how to comfort him, so she could only gently persuade him.

"You should take good care of yourself. Although King Chen Liuwang is gone, he is still protecting you in heaven. You are not alone. You still have your father and we will help you."

Qiu Sheng pulled the corners of his mouth and tried to squeeze out a smile: "thank you."

Xiao Xi and Luo QingHan walked out of the mourning hall.

After leaving the palace, Xiao Xixi asked, "Your Highness, what are you going to do with the family members left by King Chen Liu?"

Luo QingHan: "Qiu yuan committed the crime of treachery. According to the laws, he should be beheaded all over the house. But for the sake of Qiu Sheng's great righteousness and killing his relatives and cutting the thief, I will plead for him. As for Qiu yuan's wife and children, we must cut the grass and root."

Xiao Xi was silent.

Luo QingHan seemed to see the idea in her heart and said calmly: "you don't need to sympathize with Qiu yuan's family. Although it was Qiu yuan's decision to start a rebellion, his family members also enjoyed a long period of prosperity with him. Since they enjoyed the benefits, they have to bear the corresponding responsibilities."

Xiao Xi nodded: "I still understand this truth when I become a king and defeat an enemy."

The two returned to the palace in a carriage.

Although the rebellion has been settled, there are still many things to be handled by the crown prince in Panyun city.

He said to Xiao Xi, "go back to your room and have a rest. I'll find you after I finish my business."

Xiao Xi thought of her unfinished script and said seriously, "business is the most important. You can be busy slowly without taking care of my body."

Luo QingHan went to the study.

Father Chang came in and said respectfully.

"Your Highness, just now a woman came to see Zhao Meimei. The servant asked someone to check. That woman is Chu Ji's mother's family. The reason why she came to Zhao Meimei was to ask Zhao Meimei to help intercede and spare Chu Ji's life."

Luo QingHan didn't care much about these little things. He asked casually, "did Zhao Meimei promise?"

"Zhao Meimei neither promised nor refused."

It was precisely because Zhao Meimei's attitude was too vague that father-in-law Chang felt something was wrong. He reported the matter to the crown prince.

Luo QingHan calmly said, "let people stare at her and see what she wants to do."

"Here."

……

Xiao Xixi returned to his bedroom and immediately drove out all the palace maids and eunuchs.

She closed the door and pulled the bolt. After making sure that no one outside could enter, she ran to open the cage, lifted the clothes covered on it, and revealed the neatly stacked script below.

Taking advantage of the prince's absence, Xiao Xi can finally read these scripts safely and boldly!

She couldn't wait to pick out a script and read it on the soft couch.

She was watching intently when she heard a knock at the door.

Dong Dong!

Xiao Xi was startled.

She immediately closed her script, raised her ears and asked warily.

"Who?"

Zhao Meimei's voice came through the door: "sister, it's me. I have something to ask you for help."

Xiao Xi reluctantly stuffed the script under the pillow and got up to open the door.

Beauty Zhao blessed her: "sister, can we go in and talk?"

Xiao Xi feels inexplicable.

Since she was scalded by boiling water last time, Zhao Meimei seldom appeared in front of her again. Their relationship was completely torn. Now Zhao Meimei suddenly came to the door. It's really strange.

At this time, beauty Zhao's eyes were red, and her eyes were still filled with a little tears.

Xiao Xi asked in a puzzled way, "what else can we talk about?"

Zhao Meimei wiped the corners of her eyes with a silk handkerchief and sobbed, "I'm sorry. I was too excited last time and I said those words in front of the prince on impulse. In fact, I have long regretted that I would be scalded by boiling water. It's an accident. It has nothing to do with you. I shouldn't throw dirty water on you."

Xiao Cuixi: "you should tell the prince these words. What's the use of telling me?"

"I must apologize to you. I hope you can forgive me."

Xiao Xi replied simply, "well, I forgive you. Is there anything else? If not, please go back."

Her story book is just seeing the wonderful place. Now her mind is full of the plot in the story book. Where is the mood to chat with Zhao Meimei?

Now she just wanted to send the woman away and continue to read her story book.

Zhao Meimei did not expect that she should accept her apology so readily. She was stunned. Her prepared words were useless.

Seeing that she didn't respond, Xiao Xi thought that she had nothing else to do and was ready to close the door.

Zhao Meimei quickly reached out and pressed the door of the house: "wait a minute!"
