My Wife is A Sword God - Chapter 572: The Wary Prince
Outside of Anya’s palace, the prince paid a visit.
When he returned from his trip, he learned from his subordinates that the wonderful man Qin Feng had come to the palace and even arrived at Anya palace, so he hurried over immediately.
Upon seeing the prince, a maid immediately bowed respectfully and said, “I will inform Her Highness of your presence, Your Highness.”
The prince was about to nod when he suddenly remembered something and said, “No need. I’ll go in myself.”
Without waiting for the maid’s reply, he strode into Anya’s palace.
Following the path Qin Feng had taken, the prince quickly arrived at the lakeside.
From a distance, amidst the spring scenery of shimmering waves, the two of them could be seen facing each other in the lakeside pavilion, engaged in conversation.
But the picture of the handsome man and the beautiful woman always makes people think about the relationship between men and women.
But this was unacceptable!
The lecherous assessment of the brothel spies and the unusual presence of the two women…
Feeling as if he were facing a formidable enemy, the Prince’s expression changed drastically as he hurried towards the pavilion by the lake.
He had no intention of hiding his footsteps, hoping to intimidate the lustful couple, which naturally alerted the two in the pavilion.
Qin Feng turned towards the sound and his face lit up. Here came his reinforcements! Otherwise, with Anya’s perception, when would he ever be able to leave?
When Anya saw her brother, her expression was different from before. She subconsciously frowned slightly, but she quickly restrained herself. Then she stepped forward and said softly, “Brother, have all the arrangements made by Father Emperor been taken care of? How is it that you have the leisure to come here?”
It was the same tone as usual, but it made the Crown Prince feel uncomfortable all over.
But he didn’t think too much about it, instead he stood between the two of them, blocking Anya with half of his body, and then said with a smile, “Master Qin’s deeds are astonishing, and I admire them very much.”
“We don’t often have the chance to meet, so when I heard about Master Qin’s visit today, I didn’t want to miss it. But Master Qin, why are you here?”
Is this a look of admiration? Why do you feel like you are wary of me… Qin Feng saw through it but did not say anything, and then explained the reason.
It wasn’t anything shameful; he could use this opportunity to get out of his predicament.
The Emperor’s order? The Crown Prince was slightly surprised by the words. He seemed to have guessed something, glancing back at Anya, but felt that this guess was too absurd.
It’s not that Qin Feng isn’t worthy of Anya. It’s just that the two women in the other party’s family are not easy to deal with. If Anya marries into the Qin residence, how will she find her place?
Of course, as the Crown Prince, he understood how painful it was to have several beautiful concubines in the family. The constant intrigues and plots were a real headache.
Of course, he didn’t want his younger sister to end up in such a situation.
And as a princess of a country, Anya didn’t need to share a husband with other women!
I see. The Crown Prince nodded slightly and then smiled, “I seem to have disturbed you for no reason. I wonder if today’s instruction has come to an end. It seems to be getting late.”
Why is my brother so talkative today… Anya gritted her teeth but didn’t say anything.
Qin Feng felt as if he had heard the sound of heavenly music and quickly said, “It’s almost over. Haste is waste. Explaining too much at once is counterproductive and hard to digest.”
Even though he personally taught the Three Thousand Qi Observation Technique, but stupid Princess Taiping couldn’t even learn it.
It can be seen from this that it is not a matter of one day to teach her; escaping from here is the most urgent matter at hand.
Qin Feng feared that the other party would still accuse him of deceiving the emperor and prevent him from leaving…
Fortunately, Anya whispered, “Let’s stop here today. Just remember what Father Emperor said. In your spare time, come and guide me in my cultivation. Today, under your guidance, I have indeed gained some insight.”
Insight, my ass, you haven’t even learned the Three Thousand Qi Observation Technique yet? As for leisure time, isn’t that for me to decide… Qin Feng nodded and said, “Of course, Your Highness, please rest assured.
Upon hearing this, the Crown Prince immediately said, “In that case, let me take Brother Qin with me. After all, the palace is quite complex, and ordinary people might not be able to find their way out. If they were to accidentally enter Father Emperor or Mother Empress’s bedchamber, it would be a great disrespect.”
“Thank you, Your Highness.”
“Brother Qin, you are too polite.”
Although their thoughts were different, the two of them were quite silent and their steps were quick.
In no time, they were out of Anya’s sight.
Anya stood in the lakeside pavilion for a long time, remembering the events of the day. She looked down at her palm and couldn’t help but smile, her smile as bright as flowers.
Thinking of something, she called to her maid and said earnestly, “In the future, if anyone comes to visit, no matter who it is, remember to inform me first.”
The maid understood the implication behind the words and trembled as she said, “This servant did indeed want to report it, but His Highness the Crown Prince forbade it, and this servant dared not disobey.”
“If my elder brother comes later, tell him that I am not here.”
“Ah?” The maid was confused for a moment, not understanding why, but could only nod and say, “This servant understands.”
As the maid walked away, Anya watched her retreating figure and activated the Three Thousand Qi Observation Technique, clearly observing the Qi on the maid’s body.
With a smile in her eyes, she muttered to herself, “I have to say, this guy is really good at teaching.”
……
After leaving Anya’s palace, the Crown Prince’s pace suddenly slowed.
The two chatted casually, and most of what they talked about was Qin Feng’s talked-about things.
Regarding the trip to the western regions, the Crown Prince sighed, “The Literature saint Dao Lineage has been in decline for a long time.”
“Except for the Heavenly Tower National Teacher, it has long been forgotten by the people. It’s Brother Qin who has brought it back into the public eye.”
“You let the world understand that the Literature Saint Dao Lineage also has such uses.”
“I am very interested in the Literature Treasure that can gather the strength of many soldiers. I wonder if Brother Qin can take it out for me to observe?”
At this, Qin Feng’s eyes widened.
He felt like he had forgotten something, and it was only after this reminder that he remembered. After being reminded, he remembered that the “Song of the Great Wind” was still left in the imperial study and had not been retrieved!
After truthfully explaining the situation, the Crown Prince showed a slightly strange expression and explained for his father, “Perhaps he doesn’t want to part with it, so he wants to keep it for a few more days to observe it.”
“Brother Qin, there’s no need to worry. Once Father Emperor is satisfied, he will return it himself.”
Do you really believe what you just said… Qin Feng twitched the corner of his mouth: “That’s good.”
At that moment, Qin Feng’s brow suddenly furrowed. He felt something in his heart and looked ahead. A group of people approached him.
They were all men, mostly elderly.
Qin Feng recognised the clothing of these people. They must be the imperial physicians who claimed to be noble but lacked much medical skill or ethics.
He looked wary, not for that reason, but because he had just sensed a hint of killing intent!
‘Who could it be?’ Qin Feng looked at the crowd.
The palace doctors naturally bowed when they saw the Crown Prince. After completing the formalities, they walked past the two of them.
Qin Feng couldn’t see anything out of the ordinary. ‘Could it be that I’m wrong? Is the killing intent not coming from these people?’
As the crowd moved away, a middle-aged man’s eyes flashed with a hint of cruelty, and a chilling smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
