Goodbye, Your Majesty - C178

Li Fengyi sent someone to invite Shangguan Qian to the main hall for dinner, it was to wash her dust. Shangguan Qian did not refuse, and besides, in this Third Prince’s Mansion, other than Li Fengyi, who made her feel uncomfortable, there was no one else.

“Qian’Er, eat more liver, for a better reason.”

Li Fengyi sat across from Shangguan Qian, occasionally giving her some food. If it was anyone else, they would definitely be very grateful, but Shangguan Qian only felt extremely disgusted.

The most important thing was, she didn’t eat organs at all.

“Feng Yi, I’ll take care of it myself. You should hurry up and eat as well. Just wait until the food is cold.”

As he spoke, he revealed a sweet smile. The corners of his eyebrows were curved like two crescent moons.

Li Fengyi paused for a moment, then continued stuffing dishes into the plate in front of her, “It’s alright, these dishes are all not bad. Even the palace’s chefs might not be that attentive.”

Shangguan Qian really did feel uncomfortable, but the smile on his face did not fade. He knew this was just to pave the way for what he was going to say next, but she preferred him to speak directly.

“Does Qian’Er not like these dishes?”

Seeing Shangguan Qian Bei lower his head and fiddle with the food, yet not intending to, Li Fengyi could not help but furrow his brows and ask.

Shangguan Qian was startled for a moment, then revealed a forced smile, “No, just …” “I’m not in a good mood.”

She was indeed in a bad mood, but she could not tell him the reason.

“Is it because of Qingying?”

At this point, Shangguan Qian had already put down his chopsticks, and upon hearing his question, he nodded in agreement.

He said somewhat embarrassedly, “The eighth prince, he really is unstoppable.”

Li Fengyi’s eyes were gloomy, but the corners of his mouth still twitched, “Eighth brother is only spoiled. Qian’Er, don’t take it to heart. In the future, this palace …” “Little Qiao should just stay in the manor and enjoy life. Our marriage is very close now.”

Shangguan Qian listened to his arrangements, smiling in understanding from beginning to end. When he talked about marriage, he shyly lowered his head.

“Qian’Er, stay as far away from the crown prince as possible.”

Li Fengyi did not ask her to continue eating. He watched as the maidservant removed the food on the table and spoke in a low voice.

Shangguan Qian Shan raised his head, puzzled, then nodded as if suddenly enlightened, “I know, you too, Feng Yi. Don’t be too tired, look out for yourself.” “Heh, I see that you haven’t been looking too good lately.”

This was certain, since Shangguan Qian had come to Great Yan Kingdom, he had not had anything to take care of.

Li Fengyi felt a little awkward, so he coughed dryly a few times, “Relax, I will take note of it. It’s getting late, Qian’Er, rest early too.”

Shangguan Qian replied with a grunt, then got up and went off to the other side, taking Yi Shan and Cui Zhu with him. After they left, Li Fengyi was still staring blankly at the yard.

“Chasing Wind!”

Just by shouting outside, Chasing Wind immediately bowed and appeared in front of him.

“Pay attention to Shangguan Qian’s recent actions.”

His voice was calm, as if he was asking Chasing Wind to protect Shangguan Qian.

Zhui Feng’s body trembled for a moment before he answered with a deep voice. He glanced at Li Fengyi, who was sitting on the seat, and saw that his face was dark and it was hard to tell what he was thinking at the moment.

In the afternoon, Chasing Wind told Shangguan Qian about this, and Shangguan Qian only smiled. Li Fengyi had always been suspicious, and ever since she had arrived, so many things had happened, so he did not doubt that it was impossible.

What she didn’t expect was that he would act so quickly. He was probably too shocked recently.

Zhui Feng raised his eyes and stared at the smiling woman before him. He felt that he really couldn’t understand this woman. Her status was obviously high, but how could she have such a plan? She wasn’t even as good as a man.

Shangguan Qian also noticed his measuring gaze, but he only smiled. “Don’t worry, I only want Li Fengyi’s life, a dead dog to cook and a bird to hide in. I won’t do that.”

Chasing Wind was a bit embarrassed. “Is there anything else?”

“Have you been to his study?” Are there any clues? ”

There was a hint of regret on Chasing Wind’s face. He had investigated this matter for a long time, but had no clues at all.

Looking at him shake his head, Shangguan Qian also sighed. “In that case, please keep an eye out. If you can’t find him, we better not contact him.”

Chasing Wind didn’t say anything and just left.

On the other hand, Isao looked at his back and asked, “You believe him?”

Now that his little sister had been found, why should Shangguan Qian believe that he would not strike back?

“He’s grateful to me, and we made an appointment for a year.”

At this time, Shangguan Qian’s tiredness had also arrived, so he walked into the room and asked, “Did you find out that Cui Zhu’s identity?”

Isao shook her head. “I haven’t seen her in contact with anyone.”

Shangguan Qian was not disappointed, as she would reveal a flaw sooner or later.

“Then let her expose herself tomorrow night.”

As he spoke, Shangguan Qian smirked. Tomorrow, he would meet this master.

The next day, Shangguan Qian got up very early. Seeing Cui Zhu waiting outside the door, he smiled and greeted her, “Cui Zhu is also this early?”

“Since young miss is already awake, Cui Zhu naturally wouldn’t dare to be lazy.” Pausing for a moment, he then asked, “Miss, do you want to have a meal?”

Shangguan Qian looked at her deeply, “Alright, I haven’t eaten anything made of green bamboo in a long time, I miss it so much.”

“Young Miss likes to tease Cui Zhu, Cui Zhu will go and get it right away.”

Shangguan Qian’er looked at her voice and smiled, but that smile did not reach his eyes, and he continued walking towards the yard.

She liked bamboo, and it was always lush and verdant. It was so cold in the country that it was hard to see such a verdant scenery all year round. That was why she liked bamboo ever since that time.

He suddenly thought of something and returned to his room. When he came out again, he held an ancient jade Xiao in his hand.

He pondered for a moment, then put it into his mouth and started blowing. It was not some heavenly sound, but it was still clear and melodious. It was especially strong with this patch of green.

However, he didn’t notice the voice behind him. He narrowed his eyes and paid attention to her graceful figure.

“I didn’t expect the princess to be so proficient in music.”

A calm voice rang out from behind him, and Shangguan Qian was only slightly startled for a moment before he turned around and met the crown prince’s teasing gaze.

“When did the crown prince arrive?”

Shangguan Qian didn’t feel awkward or embarrassed at all, and after blessing himself, he put down the jade flute in his hands and asked.

“It’s not that the princess left without saying goodbye, eighth brother is currently crying right now, and I have no other choice but to come to third brother’s place to relax.”

Shangguan Qian Bei smiled. This really wasn’t something that a proper Crown Prince like Li Yichen could say. The most important point was that he had actually appeared in the Third Prince’s Mansion.

“Qian’er can’t be considered to be leaving without saying goodbye. Feng Yi mentioned this on her behalf to the empress.”

Saying that, he sat down with a smile. It was impossible to find a trace of remorse or apology in his words.

“Princess’s Spirit Teeth and sharp mouth, however, are incomparable.”

“However, the crown prince’s ability to praise others is not that great.”

The Crown Prince Li Yifen had always disliked him, and there was no need for her to flatter him in order to avoid a nose full of dust.

The Crown Prince coldly snorted and didn’t say anything else.

Shangguan Qian really wanted to know why he had come here, but seeing him drinking tea so peacefully caused his to furrow his brow.

Luckily, Li Fengyi had arrived quickly, and Shangguan Qian finally did not have to face this ice face anymore.

“The crown prince is here, please take a seat in the hall.”

Then, he looked at Shangguan Qian without batting an eyelid.

Shangguan Qian’er also noticed his gaze, but he did not explain, instead turning to them and saying: “Qian’er had wanted to come out for a walk to begin with, since Feng Yi and the Crown Prince have something to discuss, Qian’er will be going back now.”

Li Fengyi didn’t say anything, but the Crown Prince looked at her with a smile instead.

“Princess isn’t going back to continue sleeping, is she? Looking at her tired state, I thought that she wouldn’t be able to sleep well at night.”

Shangguan Qian’er’s gaze sank a little. He had not been able to sleep well, but he had wanted to tell Li Fengyi that something had happened to his.

“Qian’Er has a crush on her bed and hasn’t gotten used to it for a while. The appearance of the crown prince surprised Qian Chao.”

In order to make Li Fengyi suspect her, he had to first explain his purpose for coming to Third Prince’s Mansion so early in the morning.

“Of course we have to discuss business. Eighth brother, let’s go to the main hall to talk.”

After saying that, he looked at Shangguan Qian with narrowed eyes, but Shangguan Qian still had that faint but proper smile on his face, not showing any fear in his eyes at all.

Shangguan Qian returned to his room and happily enjoyed his breakfast. At the same time, Yi Shan woke up and sat down beside her for breakfast, leaving Cui Zhu gaping at the side.

Shangguan Qian Bei glanced at her and said in a low voice: “Cui Zhu, Cui Yi and I are going out tonight to stay in the house. If anything happens, please help me block it.”

Shangguan Qian’er had already finished his breakfast, and was looking at her as he instructed, purposely ignoring her and trembling a little.

“Yes, miss.”

Cui Zhu didn’t ask where she was going, nor did she ask why. She only replied respectfully, just like a qualified maid.

Shangguan Qian nodded in satisfaction.

Then he and Isao went back to the garden.

“The Crown Prince came this morning.”

Seeing that there was no one around, Shangguan Qian’er said to Yishan, but his gaze was focused far off into the distance.

“It should be about the construction of the reservoir.”

Yishan didn’t mind and was even nibbling on a pear in her hand. Hearing her words, she only replied indifferently.

Shangguan Qian was startled, and turned to face him. After looking at how his mouth was full of juice, he couldn’t help but feel powerless to support her forehead. “Look at you, if I were Xue Xuan, I wouldn’t have you either.”

It wasn’t the pain of purposely poking Yishan, but the urge to tease her.

“It is said that the Emperor has not yet decided who to leave the construction of the reservoir to in the southern waters.”

Shangguan Qian Bei retracted his gaze and began to ponder. He knew a bit about the water disasters in the south, and it would be best if he sent Li Fengyi there, otherwise he would be able to find some of that stuff.

“Oi, I say, you truly deserve to be this tired. Look, I treat you so well, yet you even poke at someone’s scar. Look, does this count as retribution?”

Yishan finally finished the pear in three bites, threw the pear core into the bamboo forest, and then took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands as he spoke.

Shangguan Qian looked up, “Who knows, maybe I’ll be lucky in the future?”

However, she also wanted to eat when she saw Yisan nibbling on pears.

Yi Shan didn’t want to continue this topic with her, so she asked, “Are you sure that Li Fengyi won’t be suspicious when you act tonight?”

Shangguan Qian did not mind, “I don’t know.”

“You …!”

After pausing for a moment, he revealed a large smile. “Alright, since you’re so amazing, then you can take care of it yourself. I need to sleep earlier tonight.”

As she spoke, she turned around arrogantly, leaving Shangguan Qian to grit his teeth fiercely.

“Yishan, if you don’t help me, I’ll …” I went back on my word! ”

Sure enough, Yi Shan stopped in her tracks, looking at her for a while before saying, “Shangguan Qian, you are really treacherous!”

Shangguan Qian shook his head, grinning from ear to ear, as if he had gotten away with it.

This time, it was Yisan who was full of hate.
