Ye Xiaolou also felt sad for her when she looked at Qiu Jing who was crying.

I have to say that Qiu Jing is a very rational girl. Her rejection is real, and her pain is also so real.

When people are ignorant, they can make trouble, complain, and blame others. They can evade responsibility without burden.

But Qiu Jing is not the case. She knows her situation and the consequences she may bring to the Zhu family.

Therefore, she would rather suffer herself and be humiliated than dare to take a step forward. Even if the desire to be married to her beloved is right in front of her, she still refused.

Because she also knew that taking a step forward might be a bottomless abyss.

This is a rational and heartbreaking girl.

Ye Xiaolou knew that comforting was futile, and what she needed more now was to find a way out.

So he put the tea bowl on the stone table and said softly: "Miss Qiu, I know you are a good girl."

"I understand your pain and your pains. But will you feel unwilling to accept your fate like this?"

Qiu Jing slowly raised her head and looked at the beautiful and refined girl in front of her with her tearful eyes, as beautiful as a fairy who is not as good as a worldly fairy.

He smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not willing to give up? So what if I'm not willing to give up?"

"The imperial envoy is the minister appointed by the emperor. Our family is just a minor official of the ninth rank. Not to mention asking me, a woman, to be a concubine, it would take the life of our whole family---"

Speaking of this, Qiu Jing started to cry again. The reason why she did not dare to agree to the Zhu family's marriage was that she was worried that her family would be implicated because of offending the imperial envoy.

She couldn't exchange her own happiness with the sacrifices of her relatives. She couldn't do it.

When Ye Xiaolou saw this, he immediately said, "I know this naturally, but Miss Qiu, have you ever thought about it?"

"I heard that this imperial envoy is very beautiful. He has never even seen you before. How could he suddenly take you as his concubine?"

Qiu Jing was stunned when she heard this, and looked at Ye Xiaolou blankly, tears falling from her eyes, and she even forgot to wipe it.

"You mean, someone wants me to be harmed?"

Although Qiu Jing is good-looking, she is not as beautiful as a beauty like Ye Xiaolou, and she is not even as beautiful as Jinnian.

The imperial envoy is to take a concubine, not to marry a wife.

People say that they marry a wife and a virtuous person, and they have never seen him or her concubine. I just heard that, but they just wanted to take an official woman as a concubine. Isn’t that too arrogant?

It’s okay for a young woman, but it’s not comparable to the official woman.

Qiu Jing obviously thought of this and immediately said nervously: "Who is it, who wants me to harm?"

Although she is an official woman, because of her father in Nankang City, everyone naturally respects her a little, but she is not a bully and thinks she has never offended anyone.

Seeing her like this, Ye Xiaolou immediately said, "Miss Qiu, this person may not necessarily harm you."

"You think, who is the imperial envoy?"

"He was ordered by the emperor to come to Nankang City to investigate the remnants of the prince."

Qiu Jing was a little confused, "Don't everyone know this? What's the matter?"

Ye Xiaolou said seriously: "Of course it's related."

"Even if this imperial envoy is a pervert, it is definitely not as simple as a fool when he can get to the level of an imperial envoy. What he does must be purposeful."

Qiu Jing didn't understand what Ye Xiaolou wanted to say, so she just looked at her stupidly.

Ye Xiaolou didn't expect a lady from the boudoir to know too much.

He spoke directly: "The remnants of the prince who had been arrested by the imperial court for so many years, but why can't they be arrested all of them?"

"We ordinary people don't know the reason, but the prince's remnant is not stupid. How could he come out to show off after doing bad things? He must have hid."

"The imperial envoy arrived at the local area. How could he return to Beijing to report without political achievements?"

Qiu Jing immediately said as soon as he heard this, "So, the imperial envoy urgently needs the whereabouts of the prince's remnants. So the women who died in these days were all intentional? But this would not lead the prince's remnants to the trap at all. Moreover, even if he forced my father, he would not be able to catch the prince's remnants."

After hearing this, Ye Xiaolou's face turned cold and said, "The prince's remnant cannot be caught, but he can force someone to become the prince's remnant."

Qiu Jing was shocked when she heard this, "What do you mean?"

Then he was so scared that he was trembling: "So, it was not his purpose to take me as a concubine. He knew my father's temperament, so, so---"

Seeing that she was so scared, Ye Xiaolou hurriedly said, "I'm just guessing."

"But no matter what, the plan for this is to understand the purpose of the imperial envoy as soon as possible, so that it is easy to save yourself."

"If the imperial envoy was really doing this, Lord Qiu would have made plans early."

In Ye Xiaolou's opinion, it is better to give it a try than to accept one's own wish.

But she never expected that she would really hit it.

Is the remnants of the prince so easy to catch?

If he depends on him to catch it, he will have to catch the year of the monkey and the month of the horse?

Even if he is an imperial envoy, he still has to rely on the help of local officials?

If the local officials do not work hard, wouldn’t he be in a long way to return to Beijing?

How can this broken place be compared with the prosperity of the capital?

Rather than doing this, it is better to make the big ones.

Ye Xiaolou still thought about people too well. She thought that she would just catch some bandits and some evil fugitives who were full of evil deeds and then make a deal.

But unexpectedly, the imperial envoy had already put his ideas on the Qiu family.

Qiu Feihu was still angry because of the loss, thinking that the other party was afraid that he would not be able to do anything, so he threatened him with his daughter.

Of course, it is impossible for her to know about these women in the inner hut, such as Qiu Jing, and she could not imagine these things.

Now that she had heard Ye Xiaolou's words, she didn't care about crying. She seemed to have found a door, a door leading to light.

So he said excitedly: "Miss Ye, you are right."

"No, I have to go home and tell my father quickly."

Seeing this, Ye Xiaolou naturally had no reason to stop him. It was just that Zhu Ying had been there for so long but had not yet brought the water back. Just when Ye Xiaolou was about to let Jinnian go and see it.

I heard a man's voice coming from a distance, "Hey, isn't this Brother Cui? I didn't expect to meet him here. I'm so lucky."

At this moment, Cui Yuanheng was explaining to his old servant, but he didn't expect to meet an acquaintance. Then he frowned and said, "Are you???"

The young man said with a straightforward look: "My surname is Zhu, and my name is Zhu Shen."

"Did you forget? We'll have a tea in a elegant room in Japanese. On that day, you were jealous of a fairy in green clothes. Oh, my snacks were even stolen."

"That was given to me by my sister. I heard it was a snack made by your wife, and it was so delicious."

Cui Yuanheng curled his lips when he heard this, and was jealous?

If you can't speak, shut up. I really don't know where the naughty boy came from.

The young man didn't see the disgust in Cui Yuanheng's eyes at all. Instead, he started talking enthusiastically and introduced his friends to him.

Although the sound was not loud there, Ye Xiaolou and Qiu Jing could hear it clearly.
