C203 Promise to hide

"This …" Hua Moer stammered and bit her lips. Her eyes were watery and she looked very pitiful, but she seemed to have something that was hard to say.

However, this way, Shen Qingwan must ask clearly. After all, she was the princess of a country. If it was a normal person, it would not be a big deal to help her hide herself, but with her identity, if she was not clear about it, it would probably lead to a dispute between the two countries.

"Princess, if there's anything you want to say, just say it. If that's the case, then I'll help you." Shen Qingwan stared into her eyes as if she wanted to see through her. There was a hint of suspicion and a faint smile in her eyes, she did not want her expression to scare away the little princess.

Hua Moer awkwardly bit her lower lip, as if she was hesitating on whether he should inform her or not. After all, this was no small matter. If she didn't trust someone, she would be in trouble if word of this spread.

The person on the other side was not in a hurry either, patiently waiting for her reply. The one who needed help was Hua Moer, it was her turn to worry.

Hua Moer who was struggling in her heart clenched her teeth. In the end, she trusted her and told her everything about her current situation.

"Actually, it was my royal father who wanted to point out a marriage for me." Her voice revealed a trace of loneliness and helplessness, "Concubine Xian ought to know the position of the The Great Luo Country in all of the small nations."

Eyebrows furrowed, she listened to her in silence.

"Imperial Father arranged for me to marry someone else, but …" Tears welled up in her eyes, her eyes were so red that they made people feel pity for her, "But I have never seen who that person is, not to mention, I already have someone to take over my heart!" She spoke firmly, but her voice was very soft.

Her daughter's family's words had embarrassed her, but now that the situation was so urgent, she couldn't care less.

"That's why I sneaked out." Hua Moer rolled his eyes, trying to swallow the tears in his eyes, "But my royal father will definitely send someone to find me, I'm afraid... I'm afraid he'll find me. "

Even though she had swallowed her tears, her eyes were still red.

Her words caused Shen Qingwan to be stunned, she never thought that it was because of the marriage alliance.

Looking again at the woman in front of her, although she seemed gentle and weak on the surface, she did not expect that she would do this for love's sake. This made it difficult for her.

To have the courage to flee from The Great Luo Country to this place showed that she was not an ordinary princess.

"You are truly unwilling?" Shen Qingwan still had some questions, so she asked, "Do you know what the consequences are?"

If she really was determined to not go back, if her royal father finds out …

As she thought of this, Shen Qingwan couldn't bear it any longer. When she thought about how she didn't have her wish to enter the palace, she knew very well what kind of pain she was in.

Moreover, Hua Moer already had a lover, what kind of mood did she have to abandon her beloved and marry someone she had never met before?

"I understand the Empress. I only hope that the Empress can help me temporarily." In truth, she didn't hold too much hope. After all, they had only been together for a year.

Even if it was a tragic rejection, it was reasonable. No one wanted to bring disaster upon themselves.

However, she heard the girl laugh. Her smile was like a spring breeze, making Hua Moer look extremely comfortable.

"I accept." She withdrew her smile, her expression somewhat grave. "I have come to my aid, but I can't guarantee your safety for long."

"Mo'er thanks Concubine Xian!" Hua Moer smiled gratefully, and her face lit up.

This could not be delayed. She found a quiet place at the end of the market and let her stay there.

"You've temporarily stayed here for a period of time. Although it's not as luxurious as the palace, it's still able to protect your living and rest." Looking around, the environment here was very quiet and very suitable for people to live in.

Usually, there weren't many people who came, so it was more suited for her current situation.

"As for the maidservants, I will send one to the palace. You can use it as you wish." It might be bad if the people outside didn't know enough about the situation.

"Concubine Xian …" Hua Moer didn't know what to say for a moment.

"There's no need to be polite." The corner of her mouth curled up slightly, interrupting the gratitude she wanted to express. The reason for helping her was not because she was greedy for her gratitude. "It's just that you need to be more careful when you go out in the future."

Hua Moer nodded obediently. At this point in time, she would say whatever she wanted to say.

"Concubine Xian, if you help Mo'er like this today, in the future, if the Empress has any matters, just say them out, and I will definitely do it!"

Hearing that, Shen Qingwan's eyes flashed a look of gratification, it seems that this princess does not only have a weak character, her words are similar to the princess of The Great Luo Country.

After giving her a few more orders in the courtyard, she left. It was not good to stay here for too long. By the time he returned to the palace, the sky had already darkened slightly. As he passed by the Imperial Gardens, he saw a bright yellow figure.

There were only two people in the palace who could wear this color, and it was obvious that they were women.

After the relaxed and joyful atmosphere outside dissipated, she had changed into her usual cold demeanor. It was not a good thing to be overly enthusiastic if the woman in the imperial harem was thinking too much.

"Chenqie pays her respects to the empress." She turned her gaze to the bright yellow flower in front of her. There was an embroidered peony flower on it. It was delicate and beautiful.

Xiao Shushen never thought that he would meet her, she raised her eyes and said, "Get up." Although the amount of arsenic was not much, it was enough to torture her body. After lying in bed for half a month, she was still in good shape. She took advantage of the slightly darkening sky to take a walk, all for the sake of avoiding encountering all the consorts.

"How is the Consort Xian here?" Her voice was calm, but it carried an invisible pressure.

Shen Qingwan's expression did not change as she replied indifferently, "Chenqie, go back to the palace and pass by this place."

Her thoughts were a bit gloomy. She didn't want to say anything more to such a scheming girl. Fortunately, Xiao Shushen's body had not recovered yet, and had only raised his eyes to look at her, his face still somewhat pale.

"The night wind is a little cold, so it's best for Esteemed Empress to return to the palace as soon as possible." Her tone was flat, without any hint of flattery or arrogance.

Even so, Xiao Shushen was still a little displeased. What qualifications did a concubine have to discipline her?

"Chenqie will take her leave." Without waiting for her response, Shen Qingwan blessed her once again and left the imperial garden.

Xiao Shushen stared at the figure that had just left with hatred in her eyes.

When Shen Qingwan returned to the palace, she told Xiao Man to find a tactful and trustworthy palace maid. Xiao Man picked out a plain and gentle looking woman.

"Do something for me." She leaned on the beauty's bed. "Go and take care of the Princess of The Great Luo Country's daily life. If there is anything you need, come back and report to me."

She had clearly told the palace maid that it was the Princess of The Great Luo Country, Hua Moer, to test if she had sufficient ability.

Concealment would instead cause doubts in the palace maid's heart, causing unnecessary trouble. It would be better to explain everything to her at once.

"This servant understands, and will do my best to take good care of the princess' daily life."

Hearing this, Shen Qingwan raised her eyebrows in satisfaction, her voice still as calm as before, "Not many people know about this matter. If news of the princess being here were to spread, who would you think I would suspect?"

The palace maid was stunned for a moment, then gave a sincere kowtow. "This servant understands."

"Go."
