A Romantic Beauty Around Imperial City - C177 ,
Although there was indeed a reason behind Qian Li’s words, it wasn’t the most important one. As for the empress dowager herself, she had already thought about it long ago, and had already asked Li Ran to deliver the dried pear blossoms and the method to the palace yesterday. She believed that the empress dowager wouldn’t look for her at this point of time.
As for Gong Ye, there were obviously fewer people watching her. She believed that after this matter with Gong Ming, all the suspicions she had wouldn’t work, so Qian Li felt that this was the best time to head to the Underground Palace.
“Did the princess really say that just now because she was angry?”
Hearing this, Qian Li frowned slightly. She had always thought that she could answer this question very straightforwardly, but she didn’t. Now that she heard it, her heart began to thump slightly.
She asked, “Xiao Lan, do you think I’m angry?”
“It doesn’t look like I’m angry, but it seems like it’s a mess when I’m concerned. However, this servant still feels that there’s a greater possibility for me to be jealous.”
This answer fit perfectly with Qian Li’s thoughts. She stopped and looked at Xiao Lan in puzzlement, unable to say a word for a long time.
This feeling was as if his unwillingness to face it, yet trying his best to hide it, was instantly revealed.
“Is that really the feeling?”
“Although my words may not be accurate, my intuition is still correct.” Xiao Lan said.
Xiao Lan originally thought that Qian Li would be happy or something after she said those words, but she never thought that she would become even more troubled.
The Xiao Lan was puzzled, she tilted her head and asked, “Princess, are you unhappy?”
“There’s nothing to be happy about.”
“How could that be? Although this servant has yet to meet someone whom I can be tempted by, mother has always told me that if I meet them, I must cherish them well. Mother has also told me that love is a very mysterious thing, and when it comes, I am caught off guard, so there are many times when it doesn’t only come when we are prepared.”
“What else did your mother say?”
Qian Li frowned, she felt that these words were completely different from the love she had experienced before.
“Mother said that when love comes, it makes one’s heart race, makes one’s heart beat faster, makes one unable to control their emotions. Perhaps, one will feel sad because of the other party’s sadness, and will feel happier because of the other party’s happiness.”
“Do you think I have all these symptoms?”
“Not everything, but when the princess saw that the prince was injured she was very nervous. This servant can feel it.”
Qian Li pursed her lips, “The relationship between Gong Ming and I have always been one of taking advantage of each other, and has never had any feelings for each other. Before, I had also solemnly vowed to him, that I would never like him, and now that I don’t like him, I will never like him again.
“But princess, have you ever thought that you are with the prince because you need his power, but what about the prince with you? Does he also need your power? Not to mention that you do not have any power at all, just based on your ability, although you are a martial arts prodigy and your martial arts are also very good, but in fact, there are countless of people like you by the prince’s side. The princess has never considered why the prince would keep you by his side all this time. ”
Qian Li asked in puzzlement, “Could it be that you thought there was something else?”
“This servant has always felt that even the prince has different thoughts towards the princess.”
