Goodbye, Your Majesty - C173
“Feng Yi, I still have to go back first. Esteemed Empress probably has something to tell me. She originally wanted to go back earlier, but now she’s gone to delay it.”
Li Fengyi’s eyes flashed and then he lightly said, “I’ll send you there.”
Shangguan Qian did not refuse him, the key was that if he did so again at this time, it would arouse his suspicions.
“Qian’Er, your relationship with your royal brother is very good, right?”
Before he had taken a few steps, Li Fengyi’s incoherent words rang in his ears.
Shangguan Qian stopped in his tracks, looking at him suspiciously, “Yes, my royal brother loves me.”
In other words, Li Fengyi was already prepared to give up on him.
However, he had a pensive look on his face. “Qian’Er, your royal brother must have some tricks up his sleeve.”
Shangguan Qian didn’t say anything, just stared at him, waiting for his next words.
“You are in the palace yourself, so you must be careful. Also, once we are married, I will go with you to the Great Lei Nation.”
As expected, she actually brought up such an obvious motive. It seemed that he had really taken her for a fool.
“Alright, when the time comes, we will prepare a bunch of gifts for you. royal father and mother will definitely be very happy.”
As he said this, he smiled again. The corner of his eyebrows suddenly turned into the shape of a crescent moon. He didn’t seem scheming at all.
Li Fengyi was stunned. When he came back to his senses, he reached out his hand to touch the top of her head, “Qian’Er, to be able to meet you is the greatest fortune of my life.”
“…” But I’ve had eight lifetimes of bad luck.
Shangguan Qian’er muttered those words in his heart, but he still maintained a faint smile on his face. At this time, she could not arouse Li Fengyi’s suspicions, and he could not give many examples of things that had gone wrong.
“Why did the empress call you?”
Li Fengyi began asking questions again, and Shangguan Qian naturally had to answer them, covering the disgust in his eyes.
“I don’t know either, but it’s probably because of our marriage.”
He paused for a moment and then changed the subject, “Feng Yi, should we go pick up the army tomorrow when they return?”
“Yes, Imperial Father sent me to fetch them, but I want to go with you.”
Shangguan Qian Bei lowered his head, giving a faint ‘oh’ before falling silent.
Waiting for the empress was indeed a matter of marriage. However, the empress’s complexion was still a bit better. At least, the Crown Prince Li Yichen had returned safely, and the eighth prince had also left behind his life.
The empress didn’t say anything when she saw Li Fengyi who came with them. She only mentioned Jin Concubine deliberately, saying it was her regret to embarrass Li Fengyi.
However, Li Fengyi did not seem to understand anything, continuing to drink his tea with a carefree look on his face. Shangguan Qian sighed in his heart, with his personality, if he really did ascend to the throne in the future, this Queen might not be able to secure her place as the empress dowager.
After chatting for a while longer, Li Fengyi finally bid farewell and left. Shangguan Qian had a look at Chasing Wind who was outside the door, afraid that there was already news from the Audience Hall.
“Qian’Er, are you looking forward to the passing of time?”
After Li Fengyi left, the empress began teasing her.
Shangguan Qian merely lowered his eyes, saying passively, “I just don’t know why Third Prince left in such a hurry.”
The empress’s gaze flickered, but she said indifferently, “I’m afraid there’s something urgent.”
Shangguan Qian wanted to leave and rest for a while, but the Queen actually started telling her about Li Qingying when he was young.
Shangguan Qian really did not have any temper left. After all, such obvious motives were hard for her to accept.
Even if Li Qingying was perfectly fine, it was impossible for her to be with him. But now, was it really necessary for her to take him in and bring him back for a lifetime?
Seeing Shangguan Qian Bei’s lack of reaction, the Empress was a little angry, but he did not dare to reprimand her, instead he had a sorrowful look on his face as she recounted his current situation.
“Sigh, Qian’Er, if you’re tired, you should go back and rest.”
Shangguan Qian’er left in relief, but the empress looked at her back with a heavy expression. Shangguan Qian wouldn’t help him, she had already known this from her playful attitude just now, but what should she do with Ying’er?
The empress’s eyes were half-lidded, her rosy cheeks turning pale once more. Since Ying’er liked her, and it was now like this, she had to call her ‘Ying’er’s wish’, didn’t she?
The empress gave a bloodthirsty smile, looking at the four horned heavens outside the door, feeling sorrowful and mad.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw Yi Shan, who was sleeping with her arms crossed. Seeing her return, he said indifferently, “Why didn’t you find out?”
Shangguan Qian nodded, pouring a glass of water and said, “How could you ask so easily about these things? Why don’t you go in and sleep?”
Yishan was already ready to get up. “Then I will go and rest. Also, I keep having the feeling that Shang Guanmo’s thoughts are unfathomable. Their martial arts are too high. I did not dare eavesdrop, only smiling as I looked at him.”
After saying that, he walked into the room and slept on Shangguan Qian’s bed without a care. He went up while enduring the numbness on his scalp. Moving, Shangguan Qian also walked to the table and started practicing calming his mind.
Shang Guanmo would definitely not agree to the emperor’s request, but he did not know how he would reject it. The empress suggested that she would not even bother with coquettishness, but it was also because of this that the empress would not let him off.
After writing a few pages, he couldn’t help but rub the corner of his eyebrows as he looked at the table filled with books. On the paper, Shangguan Qian only smiled faintly.
That night, Ouyang Jin still came, but this time he came early, before Shangguan Qian could fall asleep.
“Where did Yisan go?”
Seeing that she was the only one in the room, Ouyang Jin asked worriedly.
“She doesn’t sleep here.”
Initially, he didn’t understand her meaning. But now that he thought about it, it was probably because she had also anticipated Ouyang Jin’s arrival.
Ouyang Jin declined to comment, instead taking off his outer robes. As for Shangguan Qian, he was stunned.
“You’re not going to sleep here, are you?”
“Yes, why?”
Ouyang Jin replied calmly, but Shangguan Qian, who had received the news, was no longer calm.
However, before he could say anything, he was pushed under the blanket, “Little Qian’Er, after a period of time, I’ll send you off, and then I’ll marry you.”
The hot air blew into his ears, and such a low mumble caused Shangguan Qian’s face to redden, not knowing what to say.
“Shang Guanmo rejected the emperor’s request for help because he is only a prince and does not have that much authority.”
Shangguan Qian was still struggling because of his hands, but when he heard him say that, he could only muster up a mocking smile. This was a good reason.
“Qian’Er, you should eat a little bit more. Do you usually not eat?”
Shangguan Qian was a little dazed by his jumping train of thought, and asked in confusion: “What?”
“Too small.”
Shangguan Qian had yet to understand what he was saying, but Ouyang Jin had already explained what he was saying with his actions. Recalling that he had said the same thing before, he couldn’t help feeling embarrassed and angry at the same time.
“Then the Imperial Advisor can go find someone who isn’t small!”
As he spoke, he was about to push his hand away, but his whole body was still in his embrace, unable to move at all.
“Small figure, great temptation. “Bewildered.”
Ouyang Jin’s expression did not change as he said this. He then buried his head into her neck and began to chew again.
“Don’t, if others see it …”
The difference in a normal neck area was too obvious. Her words still had a bit of a reaction, but it was obvious that Ouyang Jin wasn’t happy about it.
“Qian’Er, I really need to marry you right away.”
Ouyang Jin seemed to sigh with emotion, but Shangguan Qian was still touched.
“It’s better for me to fatten you up. You’re too skinny, it hurts so bad.”
As he spoke, his hands began to move erratically again.
Shangguan Qian’er gritted his teeth as he asked: “In that case, shouldn’t Qian’er be grateful?”
“No need, there’s no need to be so calculative between husband and wife.”
Ouyang Jin was straightforward, and Shangguan Qian was just curling his lips. “Who said I would marry you?”
“I’m so handsome. If you don’t marry me, who will you marry?”
Alright, I forgot one big thing. The thickness of Ouyang Jin’s skin is unrivalled.
Shangguan Qian couldn’t be bothered to continue talking to him, and found a comfortable seat instead, “I’m just sleeping today.” “Yes.”
Shangguan Qian was speaking with righteousness, but Ouyang Jin laughed out loud, “I was originally just sleeping.” Feeling, could it be that Qian’Er still wants to do something? ”
The warm air sprayed all over her face, even without the lights, Shangguan Qian’s face was flushed red.
“I didn’t!”
He almost gritted his teeth as he said these words, and even glared viciously at Ye Zichen along the way.
“Hur hur ~ But, I have one.”
“No!”
“This is a punishment. Sleep.” I feel like you let Li Fengyi hug you. ”
Ouyang Jin’s voice rang out in the night, full of charm. Shangguan Qian’s heart skipped a beat.
“You know?”
He had asked the useless question, but he just felt that it was somewhat inconceivable.
“What do you think?”
Ouyang Jin’s voice was as calm as before, sounding just like the sound of a jade pendant colliding against each other. It was extremely pleasant to the ears.
“Ouyang Jin, I didn’t mean to do that. You’re the only person I like, I just …”
What could she say? He was helpless, would he think too much about it?
“Sleep.” “Feel!”
Ouyang Jin interrupted her words lightly, but Shangguan Qian only opened and closed his mouth a little, still sleeping obediently. He felt it.
Ouyang Jin was hugging a warm jade, but his expression was terrifyingly gloomy. Even in the darkness of the night, those violet eyes made people shudder in fear.
Li Fengyi still couldn’t move, but since he dared to attack Qian’Er, he must be tired of living. He didn’t even bother to look to see who Qian’Er was.
When Shangguan Qian opened his eyes, Ouyang Jin was no longer there. He touched the floor where he had slept, it was still warm, it seemed like he hadn’t been walking for long.
Yishan came in but didn’t say anything. She just helped her wash up and said that Li Fengyi had already sent someone to pick her up.
Shangguan Qian wanted to leave immediately, but thinking that it would take a long time before they could eat, they both ate some pastries.
“Princess, the Third Prince is waiting for you at the palace gates.”
Li Fengyi actually sent Chasing Wind to pick him up, Shangguan Qian only nodded slightly and followed him out. Seeing Li Fengyi standing outside the door, he only smiled.
She was truly a woman who knew how to disguise herself. Although Windseeker thought this way behind her, he still maintained a respectful expression on his face.
“Feng Yi, I’ve kept you waiting.”
Shangguan Qian said lightly, his face full of self-blame.
“It won’t be long. Let’s go now. Those ministers have already reached the front.”
Shangguan Qian didn’t say anything, allowing Li Fengyi to help her up onto the horse carriage. This time, they should be going to the Chen House to receive her.
The city gate was bustling with activity, and Shangguan Qian stood on the city wall, looking at the billowing smoke and dust that was rushing towards them, a wave of disgust rising in her heart. He would soon see the Crown Prince Li Yichen and the eighth prince Li Qingying, and these people would only make her feel troubled.
“Is it cold?”
Li Fengyi gently pulled up her cloak as a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes, but he still maintained a faint smile on his face.
“Thank you, Feng Yi.”
Without waiting for Li Fengyi to say anything and not needing to thank each other, Shangguan Qian pointed and said, “Look, they’re here.”
Li Fengyi’s eyes were filled with ruthlessness, but when he followed her gaze, his complexion became even more gloomy.
