This question was uncalled for. Xie Jianyu's face darkened instantly.
Shi Qingyue burst into laughter.
"Your Majesty, don't be so shy. We are friends. I have heard that you ran back to Fuxi Palace while both of you were still on your marriage leave. Could it be that Zhang Fengxi was especially forceful?"
They were indeed friends, but Xie Jianyu was reluctant to share anything about that aspect of his life.
The Crown Prince thus chose to ignore the question.
"I came here to ask you about Wen Xiangxiang."
Just as Xie Jianyu tried his best to switch the topic, Shi Qingyue tried her best to stick with the original topic.
To her delight, her attempts were rewarded with Xie Jianyu's attention.
"I happened to run into Zhang Fengxi today in town. He looked like he was searching for something."
Oh?
Xie Jianyu raised an eyebrow.
