Be Careful, Black-bellied Prince - C74
Seeing Lan Qin rushing over anxiously, the Xuanyuan Li pushed Sheng Yan awake and almost caused her to fall into the water under the pavilion.
Although he did not know what was going on, but there was no wind nor waves, it was definitely a follow-up wave of time. The Xuanyuan Li knew that Sheng Yan was good at using incense, but Gu Qing Rui was an expert in this area, and had probably been discovered.
Sheng Yan rubbed her hazy eyes. She was really tired, after all, she had not slept soundly for the past few days.
After sending Sheng Yi Qiu off, there were still assassins looking for him. She was really drunk and did not know where she got into trouble with her high intelligence and peerless beauty.
“What’s wrong, Lan Qin, why are you in such a hurry?”
“Miss, what should we do? It seems like Xiang’s matter has been discovered.”
Sheng Yan raised his eyebrows, “What do you mean by being discovered?”
“Earlier, I heard that Prime Minister had already seen through the reason behind Sheng Yi Qiu’s anger, it was because of the incense, while Sheng Yi Qiu said that you did it, and now that First Lady has ordered people to search our courtyard, in order to be fair, the people who went to search were all the master’s servants.
Sheng Yan laughed coldly, “I didn’t expect Gu Qing Rui to have this kind of ability. A small marten, this bunch of old bastards, alright, I’ll go and see how they plan to frame me.”
Sheng Yan swept up the dust on her body and was about to leave with Lan Qin, but she was stopped by the Xuanyuan Li.
“Wait, are you sure it’s okay?”
“If Prince doesn’t believe me, why don’t you come with me?”
The Xuanyuan Li nodded his head, because even if something happened, he had already made the preparations to take the blame on himself. After all, they could not do anything to a prince.
As for Sheng Yan, she had successfully made her owe him a favor.
The group of three directly returned to Sheng Yan’s residence. At this time, Fu Yun Xian had already brought her people to the outside of the courtyard.
In order to avoid trouble, Sheng Yan did not enter the house at all. Presumably, the people under the old master did not dare to falsely accuse him.
As expected, after searching once, there was nothing, and now everyone’s eyes were on Sheng Yan.
“Small Five, since you’ve already brought someone here today, there must be a reason behind your actions. You should either honestly explain the incident, or take off your clothes and let Prime Minister inspect it. If there’s nothing else, it’s just a false alarm.”
Sheng Yan looked at Sheng Ming He with a questioning gaze. However, she was not targeting him, but Gu Qing Rui and Xuan Yuan Nuo instead, his gaze did not land on herself. It was possible that she was too sad after hearing this news and did not bother to look at anymore.
However, he could not let this matter go. If he let it go like this, he would think that he was a coward. If he really married the Xuanyuan Li one day, the two of them would be bullied to death by these shameless bastards.
, you have to apologize to me, and you have to do so as well. As for the First Prince, forget about it, as long as you have two servants to help you apologize to me, after all, I am an unmarried lady, and it is disgraceful for you to humiliate me like this. ”
“Sheng Yan, don’t go overboard. You are the one who did this.” Sheng Yi Qiu was almost angered to death by Sheng Yan’s words. She wanted Grand Imperial Consort and Prime Minister to apologize to her in front of everyone, on what basis could she, Sheng Yan, afford it?
“Sheng Yi Qiu, don’t say such a thing, when the time comes, I, Sheng Yan will treat the wrong people, First Prince, do you agree?”
Xuan Yuan Nuo looked at Sheng Ming He with anger contained within his eyes. And because Sheng Yan could say such a thing, it further ignited the fury in Sheng Ming He’s heart.
However, there was nothing he could do about being stuck in the middle, this condition was something he had to agree to even if he did not agree, since Sheng Yan had already taken off her clothes. If he suddenly said that he would not inspect, then where would Sheng Yi Qiu, Prime Minister and Fu Yun Xian’s faces go?
After considering for a moment, Xuan Yuan Nuo nodded his head, “Alright, I agree. If you are not wrong, Prime Minister and I will apologize to you.”
Sheng Yi Qiu was startled, she could not believe that his husband would actually make him do such a thing, but after thinking about it, there was no other way, if she had not insisted that it was Sheng Yan, such an outcome would not have been possible. She had implicated the Prime Minister, but this matter could only be done by Sheng Yan, as the two of them had deep grudges.
Sheng Yan glanced at Sheng Yi Qiu, and then walked into the courtyard. Because she had brought servants with him, she immediately changed his clothes in the house, and handed the clothes over to Sheng Ming He’s servants to Prime Minister.
Although it was for his face, Gu Qing Rui knew that if he had made the hypothesis that there was a spice on his clothes, then he would be offending Sheng Ming He and the Xuanyuan Li. If there was no spice, then he would be offending Fu Yun Xian and Sheng Yi Qiu, but this matter was picked up by Xuan Yuan Nuo, and there was no need to offend Sheng Ming He for his sake.
After receiving the clothes, Xuan Yuan Nuo vaguely felt that it was not good. Gu Qing Rui also felt that it was laughable, because the fragrance of the clothes was just a faint rose fragrance, it did not have any impurities, and did not even have the fragrance of a woman’s makeup. This was because today, Sheng Yan, to be frank, had only drawn an eyeliner, and did not have any other modifications.
Sheng Yi Qiu and Fu Yun Xian looked and knew that they had offended Sheng Yan this time.
“I can’t smell the same fragrance as the one coming from Grand Imperial Consort.”
Sheng Yi Qiu hid behind Fu Yun Xian and was not willing to go over, but Gu Qing Rui had already apologized and she did not have any reason to go over.
Especially when she saw Sheng Ming He’s unfriendly gaze, she realized that it was really the water poured out by the married woman.
“Sorry, sorry.”
Sheng Yan also didn’t want to make things difficult for her.
“It’s fine, as long as Grand Imperial Consort does not have to bite people again.”
“Sheng Yan, who are you calling a mad dog?”
Sheng Yan smiled faintly, “I didn’t ask too much out of consideration for your master’s sake today. You should take care of yourself.”
The Xuanyuan Li saw everything, and realised that the woman who did not wake up was not to be trifled with, she had pushed Sheng Yan up, and it was all to disturb her sweet dream midway, it would be weird if she did not wake up.
However, looking at it now, Sheng Yan’s heart did indeed have this kind of arrogance. From her performance today, she was extremely confident that she would be able to clap Sheng Yi Qiu and Fu Yun Xian within her palms, and the clearest thing was that she would be excluded. She really did not know what other schemes she would have.
Although he was unwilling, this matter had been resolved.
Looking at Sheng Yan’s reaction, Sheng Ming He knew that she had suffered quite a bit this time. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so angry that she would make Prime Minister and Grand Imperial Consort apologize together, and every word she said would cause everyone present to be embarrassed.
And before he left, he looked at the somewhat similar face of Sheng Yan and the Xuanyuan Li, and said indifferently: “That’s what we should do. This is my, Sheng Ming He’s, daughter.”
Looking at his cheap father walking away, the corner of Sheng Yan’s mouth quirked up into a smile.
