Quick Wear: She is the White Moonlight

After learning that Zhou Qinghe would handle the issue of the academy disciples, Jiang Chenying sent people to investigate what happened between Yuebai and Zhou Qinghe that day.

The result was that Zhou Qinghe set up the situation himself and broke up with Yue Bai, so they should leave Liangdu soon, but Jiang Chenying was still unhappy with a frown on his face.

"Is Your Highness unhappy?" The subordinate thought that after leaving the Young Palace Master, he would break up with Zhou Qinghe, which would undoubtedly be beneficial to his side.

Although His Highness's feelings for the Young Palace Master may not be reciprocated, at least one opponent has been reduced, and if the two sides fight in the future, the Academy and the Xuanji Palace will favor them, the Shadows.

Jiang Chenying certainly couldn't be happy. Under such circumstances, Zhou Qinghe chose to break up in order to draw a clear line with the academy, and the master went along with the drama in order to protect Zhou Qinghe. It is hard to say how much affection there is in this.

"Pack up and prepare to leave. Zhou Mingxuan will probably stay here to recover from his injuries. We are heading north."

As Jiang Chenying expected, the disciples of the academy were not strangled three days later, and were released after being imprisoned for more than ten days.

No one knew how Zhou Qinghe made a deal with Prince Liang, but on the same day the imperial edict appointing Prince Yi as the crown prince was also released.

When Jiang Chenying told Yuebai the news, Yuebai was feeding the fish. The koi in the pond were all of the best golden and red colors. When a handful of fish food was sprinkled in, the koi rushed out to compete for the food, which was a very beautiful sight.

"Got it, pack up, it's time to leave, the water is muddy enough."

Zhou Mingxuan did not leave with them, but stayed here to recuperate and then returned to Xiamen by himself.

"Young Palace Master, Senior Brother Qinghe is probably in a difficult situation." Zhou Mingxuan hasn't seen his elder sister since he expressed his feelings. He doesn't want to be just a younger brother forever.

Zhou Mingxuan sent Yuebai to the city gate. Yuebai looked back at him and said, "It's going to get chaotic. I don't know when we'll meet again after this separation, Xuan'er."

Yuebai handed him a brocade box. After Zhou Mingxuan took it, Yuebai got on the carriage, and Jiang Chenying ordered someone to drive the horse away.

Yuebai supported her chin and lifted a corner of the curtain. She saw Zhou Mingxuan open the brocade box and then looked up at Yuebai. Yuebai clearly saw that his eyes were red.

Because when Zhou Mingxuan opened it, he found that it was a piece of osmanthus candy, and memories gradually flooded into his mind.

When he was a child, he was always in poor health. They traveled a lot and almost died several times. Naturally, there was nothing sweet to eat. So when he accidentally tasted osmanthus candy, he decided it was the best thing.

He often pestered her to buy it for her. At that time, she had just arrived at the academy and was having a hard time, but she started to bring him osmanthus candy from time to time.

Over the years, they have been together less and less, and there have been so many people and things in between, but she still remembers the osmanthus candy he loved.

Yuebai looked up at the people standing on the city wall and watching her go. They were too far away to make out the expressions of both parties clearly. It was as if the two people were on different sides, and the game of chess was finally about to begin.

"Your Highness..." Wang Lin supported Zhou Qinghe, "Are you really not going to see him off?"

"No, we will have to say goodbye anyway, why bother." Zhou Qinghe slowly exhaled and turned his gaze to Zhou Mingxuan downstairs, "Go back, my father is still waiting for me."

When Zhou Qinghe returned to the palace, eunuchs were already standing at the gate to let him into the palace. There were two groups of people, one for his mother and one for his father.

People on both sides looked at him.

With the help of Wang Lin, Zhou Qinghe followed King Liang's men.

When I entered the hall, I saw King Liang sitting upstairs, and the newly appointed Crown Prince. The Crown Prince looked as proud as a victorious rooster.

"Greetings to His Majesty, Father, Your Highness the Crown Prince." Zhou Qinghe performed the etiquette between a monarch and his subjects in a proper manner, and the Crown Prince's face became even more arrogant.

King Liang ignored him and said, "Get up." Then he ignored him. Zhou Qinghe was supported and stood quietly aside.

The prince was about to say something proudly when King Liang spoke up: "Prince, you are tired today, go down and rest."

The prince was afraid of his father and the emperor above him, so he glared at Zhou Qinghe fiercely and turned away.

Zhou Qinghe, who thought he would be summoned for questioning, stayed here for nearly half an hour and his face became pale and shaky.

Finally, a voice came from above: "Isn't your mother still looking for you? Go ahead."

Zhou Qinghe saluted and was almost unable to stand up. He was helped up by Wang Lin and walked outside the hall. He turned back to look at King Liang. The sunlight outside could not shine into the hall.

Therefore, the King of Liang inside was hidden behind the gauze curtain and his expression could not be seen clearly.

"Your Highness?" Wang Lin called out in confusion when he saw that he had no intention of moving forward.

"Let's go to the Queen Mother."

When they arrived at the palace where the queen was, Queen Xie did not show any mercy when she saw Zhou Qinghe's pale face. As soon as Zhou Qinghe entered the inner room, a porcelain cup hit him on the head.

"Do you still have me, your mother, in your heart?" Queen Xie was not satisfied after smashing a porcelain cup. She turned around and wanted to smash another one, but was stopped by a palace maid beside her.

"Your Highness, His Highness's head is bleeding. Your Highness, please stop being angry. Someone come quickly..."

"No need!" Zhou Qinghe raised his hand to stop him. "Mother, you have never really cared about me. Are you not satisfied with me using the position of Crown Prince to exchange for a fellow student in the academy?"

Empress Xie pointed at Zhou Qinghe angrily and said, "If I had known you would be like this today, I would not have sent you to the Imperial Academy. The Imperial Academy is well-known all over the world. It taught you to put your fellow disciples first, and even let you hand over the efforts of the Xie family to others."

"So when my father sent someone to invite me, my mother also went to invite me? Isn't my mother provoking my father?" Zhou Qinghe smiled and said sarcastically, "Although the Xie family is the most powerful family, my father has unified the world after all. How do you think you can confront my father?"

"Rebellious son! Rebellious son!" Empress Xie knew that the outcome was decided, but Zhou Qinghe's disobedience made her even more upset. "Someone, take Prince Yu away and punish him with a stick!"

Perhaps Empress Xie once loved Zhou Qinghe a little because he was a child she raised, but compared with the glory of the Xie family, this adopted son was nothing.

Instead, all the palace maids in the hall knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, please think twice. Your Highness has just been assassinated not long ago. It will be fatal if you continue fighting like this." The senior palace maid beside her also advised.

Zhou Qinghe raised his bloody head, looked straight at Empress Xie and asked word by word: "What am I to you, my mother? Am I a pawn of your Xie family? How can you understand that when my father unified the country, he would never let the next emperor's mother's family get involved in his kingdom!"
