The Fourth Lady

Chapter 376 Guifei and The Ninth King

At the Zhongcui Palace.

Looking at Xuanyuan Shi, who was dressed in plain clothes in front of him, Ding Shuqi walked up to

him with a smile and asked, "Shi, why are you here at this time?"

Xuanyuan Shi looked at the expression on Ding Shuqi's face. This was the first time that he hadn't

hugged her immediately. He looked at Ding Shuqi and smiled, as if he had seen the charming look on

Shuqi's face when she was young many years ago.

However, no matter how much they loved each other in the past, it could not prevent the fact that what

they did was indecent.

Now one of them was a Guifei, and the other was a Lord. They should have no parallel lines of

intersection.

But when he knew that Ding Shuqi wasn't favored by the emperor, he was still deeply in love with the

woman in front of him.

"Qiqi, the empress has known what happened between us, so does the Fourth Prince." Xuanyuan Shi

looked at Ding Shuqi and asked indifferently, "what's in your mind? Should we help the empress or

not?"

Hearing Xuanyuan Shi's words, Ding Shuqi shook his head helplessly. She approached him with a

smile and said, "Shi, I'll always listen to you. Although I want the Third Prince to ascend the throne, he

was not intersted at all. And he had discovered what we're doing. No matter who will be promoted, it's

unknown to us."

Xuanyuan Shi looked at the expression on Ding Shuqi's face and couldn't help but lift her face and give

her a gentle kiss. "The Fourth Prince asked me not to help the Crown Prince, and he had clearly stated

that he wanted to take the throne." Xuanyuan Shi looked at Ding Shuqi, who was in his arms and said

softly, "The Fourth Prince is much more terrifying than the empress. After thinking about it, I think it's

better not to care about what the empress offered."

Ding Shuqi did not expect that Xuanyuan Yvzhen would take part in the war of throne, especially when

he was still in the Crown Prince's group. Thinking of this, Ding Shuqi raised her head and looked at

Xuanyuan Shi. "What if the empress tells our matter to his majesty? In that case, it would be impossible Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

for us to live, "

Xuanyuan Shi listened to Ding Shuqi and said with a smile, "you don't need to worry about this. I think

the empress knows that I have an affair with you, but to convince my brother, she must have evidence.

I don't think she has any evidence to prove it. Since that's the case, why should we worry about the

empress?"

Hearing Xuanyuan Shi's words, Ding Shuqi smiled and said, "It seems that has our evidences, which is

why you decided not to help the empress."

Xuanyuan Shi shook his head helplessly when he heard Ding Shuqi's words. "Not really.The Fourth

Prince is a capricious man. It seems that he has never thought that he would take part in the fight for

the throne before. And the reason for him to take part in the throne is mostly because of Murong

Jingxuan or Junzhu Leyi."

"You mean they are coaxing the ourth Prince and fighting for the throne? Then... "

Before Ding Shuqi could finish speaking, his mouth was covered by Xuanyuan Shi's hand. Thinking of

what Su Qingyan had said earlier, Xuanyuan Shi still felt a shiver of fear. Especially when he heard that

there were all the spies around him, he thought that someone was secretly spying on them.

"Shi, what are you doing?" Looking at Xuanyuan Shi, Ding Shuqi asked with a puzzled look, "isn't what

I said true?"

Xuanyuan Shi looked at Ding Shuqi who was in his arms and sighed, "do you know why I was invited

by the Fourth Prince after the empress came to you? The Fourth Prince said there were all spies

around us. We may be under someone's watch now. If he knows what you said, he might know what

we did tomorrow. "

Hearing Xuanyuan Shi's words, Ding Shuqi widened her eyes. Were they being monitored all the time?

How could it be possible? ''There were all my people in the Zhongcui Palace, how could someone spy

on them now? 'she pondered.

However, after hearing Xuanyuan Shi's words, Ding Shuqi finally understood. It meant that Xuanyuan

Shi was forced by Xuanyuan Yvzhen, so he was determined not to help the Crown Prince. More

importantly, Xuanyuan Yvzhen must have evidence.

"Qiqi, listen to me. If the empress asks you why you are unwilling to help her, you can't say it's the

Fourth Prince's fault. I think you are very clear about this." Xuanyuan Shi looked at Ding Shuqi and

seriously exhorted, "it doesn't matter that if the emperor knows it, and the most important thing is the

life of Yvzhe. After all, he is our son, and you know what kind of person he is."

Hearing Xuanyuan Shi's words, Ding Shuqi nodded earnestly and said, "Shi, don't worry. Since you

have decided not to help the Crown Prince, I will definitely not help the empress. After all, it's up to

you."

Xuanyuan Shi seriously nodded while looking at Ding Shuqi, "it's good that you can understand. After

all, I have never seen through Fourth Prince."

As Ding Shuqi spoke, she hugged Xuanyuan Shi and continued, "if it wasn't grandpa who objected to

our marriage, how could we have suffered so much? Shi, I never regretted it. Even if one day the

emperor knows what we have done and wants us to die with you, I would still be very satisfied."

Xuanyuan Shi heard what Ding Shuqi said and looked at her. He said with heartache, "Qiqi, don't

worry. No one will know what happened in the past, nor will brother. As long as I promise Fourth Prince

not to help the Crown Prince, he won't tell this to his majesty."

Hearing Xuanyuan Shi's words, Ding Shuqi nodded earnestly and said, "Shi, you can rest assured that

I will never become your burden. And I will not become the burden of Yvzhen. "

Xuanyuan Shi blamed himself when he heard what Ding Shuqi said. If he had gone to the Ding clan

ahead of time to propose a marriage, the situation would not have become like this.

"Qiqi, don't worry about it. As long as we don't help the Crown Prince, Fourth Prince won't make things

difficult for us. "

When looking at Xuanyuan Shi, Ding Shuqi frowned as she thought of what she had heard from a maid

earlier. According to what they said, the empress had obviously offended Junzhu Leyi, which was why

she could come to this. But what had happened when the empress met Junzhu Leyi back then as

make the empress beg her?

"Well, lately, I heard something," Ding Shuqi looked up at Xuanyuan Shi and said seriously, "I heard

this matter from the maids chatting. However, this maid is from the Kunning Palace."

Hearing Ding Shuqi's words, Xuanyuan Shi asked with a smile, "Oh, what is it that makes you so

interested?"
