Wei Qing told him not to worry, which meant that Wei Qing did not care too.

He didn't need to take her words to mean that he didn't care about her. If he didn't care, it meant that she didn't care about him at all!

didn't know what was going on with him. In the past, he would never indulge himself in the love of a girl, but now, it was as if he had fallen into a strange circle.

”It's getting late, we should pay respects to the empress dowager.” Wei Qing reminded Xiao Qingqian as she saw the crease between her eyebrows get deeper and deeper.

Seeing the two of them enter with faces full of fatigue, he couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief. It seemed that it was indeed a success.

”Ah Qian, you go out first, I have a few words to say to Wei Qing alone.”

Xiao Qingqian frowned, ”Royal Grandmother, what do you have to say that you can't say in front of this grandson?”

”You dare to disobey This Dowager's orders?” Her Majesty's face darkened.

Xiao Qingqian worriedly glanced at Wei Qing, and unwillingly left.

The empress dowager dismissed a group of people, causing the air pressure in the hall to be extremely low.

Wei Qing clenched her fists tightly. Seeing that the empress dowager did not make a sound, she became even more perturbed.

”Wei Qing...” Her Majesty called out in a long voice.

Wei Qing's heart strings trembled, and a few more traces of fear appeared in her eyes as she looked at the empress dowager.

”In Prince Chu’s Mansion, there are people who live here who live here. I am well aware of the things that happened between you and Ah Qian.”

Hearing that, the color of Wei Qing's face disappeared.

If the Prince Chu’s Mansion had the empress dowager's people, then, who could this person be?

The empress dowager had been tightly locking Wei Qing's face all this time, and she could clearly see the various guesses in her eyes.

”Wei Qing, you and Ah Qian have married for a long time, you should still be a virgin. Otherwise, This Dowager would not have thought of such a method. Today, This Dowager wanted someone to check if you are really a wife, but in the end, there is no meaning in coming.

Think about it carefully. No matter how unhappy you and Ah Qian were previously, in the end, you were the one who asked for this marriage. If you really insist on acting on your own, then, not only will you be affected, you will also affect the entire Prime Minister's Estate!

Death-Free Token can only save one person's life, you better think it over! ”

Every additional word the empress dowager said caused Wei Qing's heart to sink, and her palms to become covered in sweat.

Right now, it was still unclear who exactly was the empress dowager's person in the Prince Chu’s Mansion. The empress dowager had once again seen through her thoughts.

He had never told anyone his purpose for participating in the four kingdoms' talent competition. Could it be that the empress dowager knew Mind Reading, or the empress dowager was a worm in her stomach? Otherwise, how would she know that his goal for participating in the four kingdoms' talent competition was precisely for that Death-Free Token?

The empress dowager had said it very clearly just now, even if she could win honor for the Northern Kingdom in the Four Kingdoms Grand Scholar Competition and successfully obtain the Death-Free Token, if she were to propose and leave, then the Death-Free Token could only save the lives of her, her father and one of her brothers who she had never met before. As for the other hundred lives of the Prime Minister Manor, they would all die because of his suggestion and departure!

Glancing at the uneasiness in Wei Qing's eyes, the empress dowager cleared her throat. ”Wei Qing, sometimes a mistake can cause you to be unable to recover from your misgivings. If you understand what's going on, then kneel down and rest!”

Wei Qing was still immersed in her complicated thoughts. After a long while, when the Nanny Qiu finally helped the empress dowager back to the Inner Palace, she finally escaped from her messy thoughts.

When Xiao Qingqian walked in, he saw that her face was as pale as paper. The look in his eyes was also somewhat stiff, and he couldn't help but ask the empress dowager worriedly what she had told Wei Qing.

Wei Qing looked at him, ”There is the empress dowager's man in Prince Chu’s Mansion.”

Hearing that, Xiao Qingqian's forehead was twisted into a knot, ”How is that possible?”

”How is that impossible?”

Xiao Qingqian frowned and thought for a moment, ”This is not a good place to talk, let's go back first!”

Wei Qing nodded.
