Chapter 397 Changqing Palace
Chapter 397 Changqing Palace
Xue Huang nodded, his eyes fell on Gu Qinglan behind him, his eyes full of heartache. "Your Majesty will not kill me, just imprisoned, this is already a good ending. Grandpa, you have to take care of yourselves too, the predicament is only temporary, the road ahead is long and arduous, don't worry."
She seemed to be speaking to Duke Jingguo, but in reality, she was speaking to Gu Qinglan. She didn't want them to be constrained by their concern.
Most of the court officials had left. When the second prince passed by, he just stopped and nodded, then left.
Only the fearless Third Prince came to seek death again, "Everyone is avoiding Princess Changle now, but you are still here caring about her? The Duke is really not afraid of bringing trouble to the Gu family."
"My Gu family acts uprightly and has no regrets. There is no need for your concern, Third Prince." Duke Jingguo replied bluntly.
"Grandpa, you should go back first." Xue Huang said. The Third Prince had a point. Now that her identity as Princess Beiyuan was exposed, she had to keep her distance from the Gu family and Mo Ruilin, and she must not let anyone talk about her.
Duke Jingguo knew her concerns and turned around and patted Gu Qinglan's hand.
Gu Qinglan hesitated for a moment, then said, "Take care."
Xue Huang nodded.
Gu Qinglan slowly turned around and left, hiding the heavy reluctance in his eyes.
Xue Huang took one last look at him, then turned back to the eunuch and said, "Let's go."
The Third Prince stopped in front of her and said, "Princess, do you regret it? If you had not chosen the wrong person, your identity might not have been exposed today and you would not have ended up in prison. Do you know what Changqing Palace is?"
Xue Huang was too lazy to waste time talking to him, and just said, "Don't force me to attack you in the hall."
At this time, Mo Yunchen came over and took Xue Huang's wrist, "I'll take you to Changqing Palace."
The third prince smiled and said, "Your Highness is really affectionate. How could he not leave me at this time?"
Mo Yunchen looked at him coldly, with murderous intent in his eyes, "If the Third Prince still wants to continue to entangle, you can try."
The third prince hesitated for a moment and gave way.
The eunuch hesitated because Emperor Ling had never said that Mo Yunchen was allowed to follow.
Mo Yunchen said indifferently, "If your majesty blames me, I will take the responsibility. Lead the way."
Hearing this, the eunuchs hurried forward to lead the way.
Mo Yunchen took Xue Huang by the hand and walked out with her without caring whether she agreed or not.
Xue Huang tried to get him to let go several times, but he just gave her a warning look and held her hand even tighter.
It was not until she reached Changqing Palace that Xue Huang discovered that this was just a secluded palace very close to the abandoned Taiji Palace, which was equivalent to a cold palace.
At this time, the entire Changqing Palace was surrounded by guards, all of whom were there to watch her.
Xue Huang didn't care. At least the palace looked quite big and clean, and there were many peach trees in it, with buds about to bloom.
"Your Highness, you can only be sent here. His Majesty has ordered that no one can come to see the princess without his Majesty's oral order." The eunuch spoke cautiously. Especially when seeing his murderous cold eyes, the last few words were almost inaudible.
Mo Yunchen ignored her and pulled Xue Huang into the palace gate. He didn't let go of her hand until they were under the peach tree.
Xue Huang knew clearly that he had something to say, and she also had something to say.
So he spoke directly, "You already know my identity, right?"
"You just said that I am your husband?"
Xue Huang was speechless, "Answer me, when did you know that?"
