879. Chapter 879 Suspicious

"I've met the Queen." Qi Ruoshui saluted calmly, with a dignified temperament.

Ye Zhen raised her hand, asked Qi Ruoshui to stand up, and looked at Qi Jin aside, "Medical Officer Qi, you are so lucky to be with... Qi Ruoshui? Have I disturbed you?"

Qi Jin replied in a low voice, "Back to your Majesty, I just came to see her today to ask about Ah Chen."

Listening to Qi Jin's harsh and cold tone, it seemed that the mother and daughter really did not have a good relationship.

Ye Zhen looked at Qi Ruoshui again, "Ms. Qi, why did you ask Mr. Shan to tell me about Mr. Huangfu on your behalf?"

"Empress, it is difficult for a commoner like me to enter the palace, let alone see you. At that time, I had no choice, so I thought of Shanshi." Qi Ruoshui said quietly, "As for other people, I don't dare to bother. .”

Qi Jin looked at her with a livid face. She didn't want the scandal between them to become public knowledge. The queen was such a careful person, she could detect even the slightest clue.

"What Shan Shi said to the empress is all mine, and that's all I know." Qi Ruoshui replied in a low voice.

"You can say more. Since you were taken to the priest's hall, you should be very familiar with it. Don't you know the reason why A Chen was taken away? What will they do to A Chen?" Qi Jin asked looking at Qi Ruoshui.

Ye Zhen asked in surprise, "Have you been to the priest's hall before?"

Qi Ruoshui replied in a low voice, "Yes, I was imprisoned in the priest's hall for several years and was forced to cure the old wizard king of Xiliang."

"Witch King?" Ye Zhen blurted out, feeling for the first time that she was finally closer to the Witch King.

"Now the Witch King is her daughter, and the old Witch King has been unable to move for a long time." Qi Ruoshui said, "I escaped while she was seriously ill. I don't know anything about the situation in the priest's hall now."

Ye Zhen raised her eyes and looked at Qi Ruoshui, "You mean, the Witch King is a woman?"

"Yes, the last two generations of Witch Kings are all women." Qi Ruoshui said.

This was beyond Ye Zhen's expectation. She did not expect that the Witch King would be a woman.

"They took you there just to treat the old Witch King. So now that they have captured Mr. Huangfu, is it... is it the same reason?" If that's the case, at least Huangfu Chen is safe.

Qi Jin looked a little anxious at the side. She knew that Qi Ruoshui was picked up not only to treat the old Witch King, but also for other reasons.

Qi Ruoshui shook his head, "I'm not sure either."

Ye Zhen actually still had a lot of doubts about Qi Ruoshui, but Qi Jin and Shan Shi were both here, so it was hard for her to ask some questions.

"Can you tell me everything about the Priest's Hall?" Ye Zhen looked at Qi Ruoshui and asked.

"This..." Qi Ruoshui hesitated for a moment, "Your Majesty, please let me think about it again. After all, it has been a while, and some memories are no longer clear. I will write down what comes to mind when I go back and send it to you tomorrow."

This is the best! Ye Zhen nodded, "Okay."

Now it seems that there is nothing to doubt. Ye Zhen asked them to leave first. She walked to the window and tapped her forehead gently with her fingers.

Everything seemed to be in order and there were no flaws. However, she felt that Qi Ruoshui was still suspicious.

When she tested Mr. Shan today, it could be seen that she was really not lying. She did not know the Witch King of Xiliang at all. All she knew was what Qi Ruoshui wanted her to know, but how much did Qi Ruoshui know? Only she knows that.

No matter from any aspect, Qi Ruoshui showed almost no doubts. It was because of this that Ye Zhen couldn't rest assured.

She felt that Qi Ruoshui's appearance was the biggest problem, as well as her relationship with Qi Jin.

Ye Zhen thought of the words Huangfu Chen left.

"Call Shen Yi." Ye Zhen said immediately.

After following Ye Yaoyao for so long, there should be results.

…

…

Qi Jin did not leave the palace. She did not want to be with Qi Ruoshui and would rather stay in the imperial hospital than go back.

Shan Shi only found out today that Qi Ruoshui had been taken to the priest's hall. She had been staring at Qi Ruoshui since she got on the carriage, as if he wanted to see a hole in her face.

"If you have anything to say, just ask." Qi Ruoshui said helplessly, "Is it interesting to look at me like this and say nothing?"

"You never said you had been to Xiliang, or that you were locked up in the priest's hall?" Shan Shi said.

Qi Ruoshui shook his head in amusement, "This is not a glorious thing. If you don't ask, I won't tell you. Am I the kind of person who complains to everyone I see?"

"It's true that you don't like to complain, but you're not the kind of person who never talks about the past." Shan Shi stared at her, "Qi Ruoshui, are you using me for something?"

"What will I use you for?" Qi Ruoshui smiled, "When I write down the affairs of the priest's hall and give them to Lu Yaoyao, I will leave. Do you want to follow me or stay?"

Shan Shi said, "I have said goodbye to the queen today and will leave Kyoto tomorrow. Anyway, I know nothing about Mr. Huangfu except what you told me, so there is no use staying here."

Qi Ruoshui glanced at her and said, "That's fine."

"Today...Medical Officer Qi came to see you? Have you mother and daughter resolved their knots?" Shan Shi asked. If this was the case, she would also be happy for Qi Ruoshui.

"Unless I die or she dies, it will be impossible to untie the knot in this life." Qi Ruoshui said lightly, "She came to me just for Huangfuchen's safety, but she didn't want my appearance to ruin her stay in Kyoto. status and reputation."

"She is your mother. Do you still have a deep hatred that cannot be resolved? Don't think of her so much, she just cares about you..." Shan Shi advised with a frown. She had seen their mother and daughter being so intimate before, and even She knew a mother and daughter who could talk to each other like this. Who would have thought that they would become enemies now.

Qi Ruoshui said calmly, "It's worse than deep hatred."

At this point, Shan Shi knew that it was useless to persuade her any more. She really didn't understand what could make Qi Ruoshui hate her for so many years.

The carriage walked for an unknown amount of time, and finally stopped when the sun was setting in the west.

Shan Shi got off the carriage and said, "I'll go pack up first. I'll leave Kyoto tomorrow morning."

Qi Ruoshui originally wanted to go in with her, but when she saw blurry figures flashing across the alley from the corner of her eyes, she slowed down and said, "Then I won't see you off. We will meet again in the future."

"I hope we won't meet in this way again." Shan Shi said.
