072: Compromise one’s moral character
Princess Min forced a smile and said, "It's so late. If Crown Prince Xie sends you back, it might not be good for someone to see you."
This is quite reasonable.
In this case, it would be difficult for Xie Beihan to send Nan Li away.
He led someone outside, gave her a banknote, and said, "I had a memory loss before and forgot about this. This is money to help you sell Sichuan Fritillary Loquat Pills."
He raised his head slightly, with an expression on his face that was waiting to be praised.
Nan Li was stunned for a moment, and her eyes moved from the bank note to Xie Beihan's face, "You are quite smart. I asked you to give it to the Ninth Prince, but I didn't ask you to sell it to the Ninth Prince."
No wonder, when she bumped into someone outside the city the next day, Ye Siheng was so distant and cold.
Xie Beihan groaned and scratched his head, "Sixth sister, you are so unpredictable. You usually charge money for giving a talisman to others. How did I know you don't charge money for this elixir?"
It seems... I can't blame him.
Nan Li had no choice but to take the bank note, feeling anxious. Now she didn't know how to face him, and how to explain this matter to him?
But an idea flashed through her, and she felt that Xie Beihan reminded her of something.
Before I could fully understand it, there were suddenly a lot of footsteps outside the inn.
A group of people surrounded the inn!
A man wearing a brocade robe walked into the inn, followed by several guards.
Xie Beihan raised his eyebrows: "Eighth Prince?"
That is King Min.
When Princess Min came out and took a look, her expression changed with shock.
However, King Min had a gentle expression on his face and said: "My servant said that Qin'er has a fever. Why didn't you tell me? Instead, you troubled Prince Xie and Miss Sixth?"
He spoke slowly and weakly, which showed that King Min was not in good health.
He couldn't get up the stairs, so he waved to Princess Min and asked her to come down, and then ordered his servants: "Take the little princess down together, don't tire the princess."
Princess Min's lips trembled, but the servant acted quickly, and she had no room to refuse.
The servant carried the little princess to King Min. Princess Min was concerned about her daughter and had to leave.
Xie Beihan and Nan Li looked at each other and went to the lobby downstairs.
When the two of them saw the frail face of Prince Min, they suddenly understood why Princess Min would hold her daughter to avoid the people in Prince Min's palace.
Xie Beihan was startled. King Min noticed it and said in a weak voice: "Prince Xie, what's wrong with you?"
His eyes were deep, as if he wanted to see something from them.
Xie Beihan remembered the lesson he learned last time and did not dare to talk nonsense anymore. He forced out a smile awkwardly and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time, King Min. Your face is really rosy tonight and your health is much better."
King Min smiled faintly, with self-mockery: "It's not the same as before. My wife has caused a lot of trouble tonight. I will definitely come to say thank you in the future."
"It's a small matter." Xie Beihan waved his hand, "But the little princess has just recovered from her fever, so she still needs to be taken care of carefully."
King Min nodded: "I only have a daughter like her, so I will definitely order people to take good care of her."
After saying that, he took Princess Min's hand and left together.
After the people from Prince Min's Mansion left, Nan Li asked, "Has Prince Min always been in this state?"
"Yes." Xie Beihan said, "King Min's biological mother was a palace maid. She was not taken seriously by the late emperor when she was pregnant with him. As a result, King Min fell ill in his mother's womb. He has been born with deficiencies and has been weak since birth."
Precisely because King Min was in poor health and rarely attended palace banquets, Xie Beihan only saw him two or three times.
Judging from his complexion, King Min's health is getting worse and worse.
Xie Beihan pursed his lips again and asked in a low voice: "Sixth sister, I wonder if I got it wrong..."
"You read that right." Nan Li stopped him from saying anything, "But I told you before, don't say too much what you shouldn't say, so as not to cause trouble and damage your moral character."
Xie Beihan nodded hurriedly. Just because he had learned a lesson, he didn't dare to say anything just now.
At the same time, he became excited again. He actually had some success in reading people's faces.
From the appearance of King Min just now, it was clear that he was blessed with no children.
He suddenly knew the big secret!
Judging from the way he took the person, King Min knew about it. No wonder the little princess had a fever. No one in the house paid attention to it, and Princess Min had to be careful to avoid it.
Prince Min's Mansion.
When King Min returned to the main hall, the maid brought him a bowl of ginseng tea. After he drank a few sips, he felt a hint of warmth in his cold body.
As soon as he rolled his eyes, Princess Min knelt on the ground in horror: "Please forgive me, please let Qin'er go."
King Min put the ginseng tea back on the small table and stared at Princess Min coldly: "Bring the things up."
A guard came up with a small box and placed it in front of Princess Min.
Princess Min just looked at it, her face turned pale with fright, and her whole body was trembling, "Mei... Mei'er."
Inside the box is the head of a maid.
It was bloody and very fresh, it had just been chopped off.
"Mei'er helped you leave the palace, and this is what happened to her." King Min said slowly, "Princess, you are really capable. You turned to Chu Nanli for help. You wanted my prince's scandal to be spread, right?
Bar!"
The last question he asked was also feeble.
But it was obvious that King Min was very angry.
He clearly told Princess Min that Chu Nanli knew how to read faces, which made his fourth brother lose face, so it was best for him and Chu Nanli not to meet each other for the rest of their lives.
Unexpectedly, Princess Min's escape caused them to meet so soon!
Princess Min calmed down, clenched her fists and said, "Miss Sixth knows the importance of things and will not say anything casually."
"But the look on Xie Beihan's face just now clearly showed it!" King Min was furious and coughed a few times. A chill flashed in his eyes, "Someone, throw that bitch into the well."
As long as the bitch is dead, he has nothing to fear.
Princess Min opened her eyes wide and cursed: "How dare you?! Ye Jinming, it was you...you didn't want to hear the gossip, so you filled me with wine and let the guards taint me! Now no one says that you can't be a human being.
, you just want to kill my daughter? Why are you so cruel!"
Ye Jinming had a cold expression on his face, "She is a bitch, but to be able to come to this world to see her and enjoy the position of princess is already a gift from this king to her."
He wanted to have a child to inherit the incense, but this was not his bloodline. Whenever he saw it, he would always feel uncontrollable anger in his heart.
Princess Min laughed, she raised her head slightly and looked directly at Ye Jinming, "I have already written a letter to my confidant. If something happens to one of our mother and daughter, my confidant will take out the letter."
, let your reputation be disgraced and be ridiculed by everyone in the world!"
Ye Jinming glared at Princess Min. He was so angry that he kept coughing.
The two of them had broken up, and Princess Min was no longer afraid, and continued: "Ye Jinming, you betrayed me, but I have never betrayed you. I have not revealed anything to others about what you are going to do. If you still return
