Seeing that Xiao Qingqian had not caught up to him for a long time, Wei Qing stopped in his steps, turned his head and looked at him, "Why are you still not following me?"

Xiao Qingqian raised his eyebrows and quickly got out of the carriage. Just as he was about to hold her hand, he quickly moved to avoid her hand.

He was a little resentful, just in time to see Xiao Hanqi and Jin Qiao’er smiling as they walked towards them.

Xiao Qingqian squinted his eyes as the temperature around him plummeted.

Wei Qing looked over, raised her eyebrow, and said softly: "There's no need to get angry at people who aren't important, getting angry will only harm the body."

Xiao Qingqian's face looked happy, the two of them were just about to go in, but unexpectedly, Xiao Hanqi called out to them.

"Is Third Brother and Third Sister-in-Law in an awkward situation?"

Xiao Hanqi's vague words caused this strange oppressive atmosphere to become even more oppressive.

"What does the crown prince mean by this?" Xiao Qingqian retorted in an ice-cold voice.

"I heard that Third Brother carried Third Sister-in-Law around the night market and injured and crippled an innocent civilian for Third Sister-in-Law!" Didn't royal father already know about this? I thought I could see the intimate relationship between Third Brother and Third Sister-in-Law. Unexpectedly, you actually … "

If Xiao Qingqian was a scum, then Xiao Hanqi was a toad that did not bite anyone.

Wei Qing really didn't know why the empress's son would become the crown prince, even if he didn't have any real ability!

The sense of justice in his heart exploded, causing Wei Qing to smile faintly, "Your Highness, being so concerned for me makes me feel somewhat guilty."

The main event tonight wasn't about reacting to Xiao Hanqi, but Wei Qing just couldn't bear to see his face that was filled with the ambition of a lowly person.

Xiao Hanqi originally planned to ridicule Xiao Qingqian, because he had already ascended to the imperial court, and he had become everyone's target, at this time, if he ridiculed Xiao Qingqian again, he would definitely go berserk.

As long as he made a mistake, then all his previous achievements in disaster relief in the south would be forgotten.

Unexpectedly, the one who spoke first, was Wei Qing!

His face was pale and pale, with an expression that made it hard to read.

Wei Qing continued to speak: "My prince, you told me earlier that the crown prince had broken the restriction on his detention, so I'm afraid that you have delayed quite a few things, so you have to rest assured and assist him! "How could I have expected that he would remember such a trivial matter so well? He must have really put a lot of thought into this matter!"

These last few words, her tone was serious, and her mocking intent was obvious.

Xiao Hanqi gasped for breath, his hands tensed up under his sleeves, forcing himself to squeeze out a smile: "I am also worried about my third brother, after all we are family!"

Wei Qing nodded, "Yes, His Highness the crown prince's words are too reasonable!"

Xiao Qingqian secretly laughed in his heart. Wei Qing's mocking and ridiculing skills were truly at the peak of perfection, he was afraid that it would make Xiao Hanqi so angry that he would vomit blood.

How could …

Wei Qing hurriedly continued, "Your highness, the crown prince is so concerned about you and your concubine, and this humble one is also kind to remind you, your highness, that the wind has become stronger recently, you must be extra careful, don't let the wind blow on your waist!"

These words made Xiao Qingqian laugh out loud.

Anger surged up between Xiao Hanqi's brows, staring straight at Wei Qing: "Third Sister-in-Law, what do you mean by that?"

"Nothing else. Could it be that His Highness the crown prince has caught on to something else?" Wei Qing blinked, her face full of innocence, "Oh, I remember now, Crown Prince's Consort was in the Silver House just now …"

Before she could finish, Jin Qiao’er's face suddenly became extremely unsightly, and she bellowed angrily: "Wei Qing, don't go overboard!"

It was obviously not Wei Qing's fault for making things worse for the sake of the Silver Restaurant!

Because he was too angry, Jin Qiao’er immediately held her stomach with her white face.

It was only because of this child that Xiao Hanqi had been able to release himself from his confinement. This time, he was naturally afraid that something might happen to the baby in his womb, and immediately called for a doctor.

Wei Qing curled her lips, "Your Highness, what I said just now wasn't completely unreasonable, was it? The wind is strong, be careful of your waist! "

"Scram!" Xiao Hanqi bellowed.

Wei Qing's face was full of innocence and fear, as she pulled Xiao Qingqian and left in a hurry.

When they reached a place where there was no one around, Wei Qing laughed heartily.

Xiao Qingqian speechlessly smacked the corner of his mouth, "Aren't you afraid of offending Xiao Hanqi?"

Wei Qing turned his head, "He is spouting nonsense. He seems to be slandering you, but he is actually saying that my beautiful woman is trouble. Why can't I make him angry? Furthermore, it's still not clear who won't be able to bear the consequences in the end. "

Under the flickering candlelight, his breath tightened as he focused on her small, expressive face and her pair of bright eyes.

Sensing danger, Wei Qing nimbly dodged the attack.

Xiao Qingqian was a little resentful that he did not kiss her. In order to ease the atmosphere, he cleverly changed the topic, "What if he vents his anger at Prime Minister Wei because of you?"

Wei Qing frowned, and then smiled meaningfully, "My father is the Prime Minister who holds great authority, unless he truly feels that his life is too peaceful, and wants to find something for himself to take revenge on."

The meaning of these words were, his father was not someone to be trifled with, if Xiao Hanqi really offended her father, just based on her father and brother's strength, he would definitely shake Xiao Hanqi.

Xiao Hanqi was not stupid, so he knew what was important and what wasn't.

Xiao Qingqian looked at her deeply for a while, "You just said that you can't bear the consequences, what do you mean?"

"I don't have any good points. I hold a grudge and I will get my revenge. I am smiling, but don't you dare offend me! "

These words were actually a warning to Xiao Qingqian, both open and covert.

Xiao Qingqian wasn't stupid, he naturally understood what was going on.

The two of them looked at each other for a while, Wei Qing estimated that it was about time, and then the two of them started walking towards the Hua Rong Hall.

Because it was a family banquet, there weren't many people present.

A few insignificant concubines did not appear here. After the palace maid led the two of them to their original positions, Wei Qing picked up a green bean cake and placed it in her mouth.

It melted in his mouth and was extremely delicious.

Seeing her expression of enjoyment, the corner of Xiao Qingqian's mouth rose slightly.

Just as he was thinking, he heard a chorus.

"The empress dowager has arrived —"

"Princess Tranquil has arrived!"

Wei Qing raised her eyebrows and raised her head, wanting to welcome the empress dowager, but the empress dowager's deep smile indicated to everyone not to be overly reserved.

An Ran gave her a look that told her to be at ease.

Wei Qing nodded her head slightly.

Her movements were light, but she was still unable to escape Xiao Qingqian's gaze.

He could not help but think that Wei Qing was scheming something behind An Jing's back.

When she sat down, Xiao Qingqian unwittingly locked her eyes, causing Wei Qing's heart to tighten for no reason.

"Why are you looking at me?" Wei Qing asked softly.
