Chapter 72: Helpless(2/2)

"This injury looks like this now. After tonight, it will worsen. Ayou is a martial arts practitioner, and his fists are no more than those of ordinary people. Although he is a safe child, he is young after all, and he is angry..." Mrs. Ji Er kept instructing Qin Zhen to not ignore the injury easily, and to find a good imperial physician to see him. No matter whether he takes internal and external medicine, he should not be careless.

Mrs. Ji Er has already treated Qin Zhen as her son-in-law and is in pain.

"It's not in the way," Qin Zhen inadvertently sat more properly. Mrs. Ji treats him like this. He is not unhappy. "Ayou is from a martial arts practitioner. I have learned some time with the teaching in the palace since I was a child. I haven't let go of these fists and feet over the years."

When Mrs. Ji Er heard Qin Zhen say this, she felt a little relieved, but she still told Qin Zhen not to be careless. While blessing Qin Zhen, she secretly glanced at Ji Xiaotang.

There is no need to talk between mother and daughter. One look is enough.

Ji Xiaotang knew that Mrs. Ji thought she was cold in her attitude towards Qin Zhen, which made her show more concern for Qin Zhen.

"I told the kitchen to boil some soup to promote blood circulation and reduce fire." Ji Xiaotang said, and asked Qin Zhen, "What did the prince bring today? You have any injuries on your body, can you still eat and use it?"

Ji Xiaotang did not specifically ask Qin Zhen about his well-being, and showed any kind of warmth. However, speaking like this seems ordinary, but Qin Zhen is happy in his heart. It seems that he and Ji Xiaotang have been together for a long time, and their relationship is not strong, but warm and comfortable.

This is the taste of home.

Mrs. Ji and Ji Xiaotang both made her feel the smell of home.

"I can't eat, just make something I can eat." Qin Zhen smiled, his tone was familiar, without any politeness at all. He had long regarded himself as an outsider.

When Qin Zhen was like this, Mrs. Ji Er was very happy and asked Qin Zhen what he wanted to eat. She also mentioned a few more dishes, which were for Qin Zhen to eat in Xinhuatang. Mrs. Ji Er observed that he loved it.

After Mrs. Ji Er asked Qin Zhen, she happily went to the kitchen herself. Qin Zhen would have dinner in Xinhua Hall. She wanted to watch the people prepare the banquet herself.

"...I know that Xiaotang is back, and I was going to come back to the palace, and I will come over after I clean up, so I can discuss with my father-in-law about marrying Xiaotang," Qin Zhen said slowly, "... Later, I plan to come over later."

Qin Zhen smiled at Ji Xiaotang.

Qin Zhen had many eyeliners, and Qi Younian came to Xinhua Hall, so he didn't deliberately carry someone on his back.

Qin Zhen was telling Ji Xiaotang that he wanted to come early, but because he knew that Qi Younian had come, he came here later. This was giving Qi Younian and Ji Xiaotang a chance to speak.

From the moment I met Qi Younian until now, Qin Zhen has shown great performance.

"As a result, I couldn't do anything in the palace. I walked to the door of the palace a few times, but I turned back until I prepared a carriage..."

Qin Zhen showed greatness, but he didn't care at all. On the contrary, he cared very much. He was not suspicious of what Ji Xiaotang and Qi Younian would have, but because he cared too much about Ji Xiaotang.

"The prince and Ayou fought a fight today, and Ayou and the prince cut off their robe and righteousness. What will the prince consider Ayou from now on?" Ji Xiaotang made such a statement, so he made an open and honest statement.

Before getting married, she and Qin Zhen must confess to each other.

"Although Ayou cut off his robe and righteousness from me, I still treat Ayou in my heart as before. Ayou is my good friend and my good brother." Qin Zhen said solemnly.

Ji Xiaotang was waiting for this sentence.

"If I treat A You as a friend in the future, will the prince object?" Ji Xiaotang asked Qin Zhen again.

"No, of course I don't object." Qin Zhen said immediately, "Xiaotang, you and I have known each other for a long time. You should know my character. I am definitely not a person with a narrow mind."

Ji Xiaotang smiled and nodded. Qin Zhen was indeed very energetic.

This is also the reason why she never hated Qin Zhen.

"Prince, dinner will take a while. Let's go to the study to talk." Ji Xiaotang stood up and said.

Qin Zhen was slightly stunned, immediately understood, and then stood up: "Okay."

Master Ji Er naturally came to the study together. The three of them sat down in the study and sent all the people they served. Then Ji Xiaotang spoke.

"With the prince's ambition, although he encountered Ayou, it should be okay to avoid conflicts with Ayou. Even if it is a conflict, the prince still has a way to prevent Ayou from fighting. But the prince still lets all these things... So, I think the prince has guessed what I want to say."

Qin Zhen immediately smiled, his eyes full of radiance.

"Xiaotang, you and my heroes have the same views."

Although the two had never exchanged this topic before, both Ji Xiaotang and Qin Zhen knew that Empress Dowager Han had no good intentions to point out their marriage.

What Empress Dowager Han wanted to see was that Qin Zhen and Qi Younian turned against each other.

So, Qin Zhen simply followed the situation and had this scene with Qi Younian outside the palace gate.

The person who was doing the show was Qin Zhen, and Qi Younian was completely revealing his true feelings.

"It's not all about acting," Qin Zhen explained to Ji Xiaotang, "I want Ayou to hit me a few times, so I have to let Ayou breathe. Of course others can't do it, but Ayou is different."

If it were someone else, Qin Zhen would rob Ji Xiaotang and would not pay attention to him at all.

But Ayou is different. Qin Zhen almost watched Ayou grow up, and then the two became in-laws again. The deeper the relationship over the years. In private, Qi Younian is his little brother. In public, Qi Younian is his most trustworthy person.

Therefore, when Qin Zhen encountered Qi Younian outside the palace gate, half of Qin Zhen was acting and half of guilt.

He always knew the relationship between Ji Xiaotang and Qi Younian. But he would let Qi Younian do anything else, but Ji Xiaotang would never give it to anyone.

"Xiaotang, I hope you won't regard me as a hypocrite. My feelings towards you have never been hidden. My attitude has always been clear." Qin Zhen said to Ji Xiaotang.

"I know." Ji Xiaotang nodded slightly.

They were talking about the serious matter, but Qin Zhen suddenly reiterated this point, which shows his importance to this matter. Qin Zhen cared very much about her feelings and her perception of him.

Ji Xiaotang couldn't help but admit that Qin Zhen was telling the truth.

"Prince, this is exactly what I want to discuss with the prince."
