C36 Acrimony

A strange atmosphere permeated the air. In the darkness, the two of them looked at each other without speaking.

All the air seemed to congeal in that instant, and the world stopped.

Shangguan Qian was a little anxious, but he pretended to be calm. After all, letting Nightingale help him meant that she had something to rebel against him, and this was something that should be very difficult for him.

"Shangguan Qian, you have guts. Aren't you afraid of danger?"

Not to mention that she did not know any martial arts, what could she do without a backer when she was alone in great Yan?

Although Li Fengyi was not considered to be favored by the princes, his strength was still not to be underestimated.

"I'm afraid, who said I'm not afraid? Nightingale, I'm only asking if you can help me or not."

"Help, it's my fault that I owe you a favor." Nightingale pursed her lips, and replied very casually, "What do you want to know?"

Who was the person who went to Li Fengyi's room just now?

"Bai Zimu, the general who is in charge of escorting the group." Nightingale yawned, as if she was a bit tired, "I've been chasing after Bai Zimu these past few days, and haven't been able to get a good night's sleep."

"It's him."

Shangguan Qian bit her lips, a look of astonishment in her eyes. Bai Zimu was a person of the Upper Official? Or was it the subordinate of the ordinary-looking man?

And who was this person?

"Girl, this is for you. My person will appear." Nightingale passed something similar to a whistle to Nightingale and went out of the window.

Shangguan Qian lit the candle once again, looked at the whistle in his hand, and a profound look flashed past his eyes.

However, what she didn't know was that in the darkness, there was a shadow of a person hiding in the corner, secretly watching her until she saw that Nightingale had left. Only then did she run to the other side of the courtyard.

In the morning, Cui Zhu finally woke up. Hong Ying rushed into the house crying despite it being early in the morning, and cried while looking at Shangguan Qian who was still resting.

Shangguan Qian was shocked by her stance and quickly sat up, "Did something happen to Cui Zhu?"

"Big Sister Cui Zhu ? "He woke up."

Shangguan Qian heaved a sigh of relief, quickly donned his clothes, and walked towards the side chamber, which was filled with the smell of medicine.

He pushed open the door and entered just in time to see Cui Zhu sitting up.

"Cui Zhu, how do you feel?" Shangguan Qian sat on the side of the bed and looked at her deeply. He could not conceal the joy in his eyes.

"It's just that I feel that I can sleep well. Princess, what happened? " she asked blankly.

"We saw something we shouldn't have seen, and then we were knocked unconscious. We almost took the blame." Shangguan Qian gave a simple explanation.

"Does the princess know who killed them?"

"Whoever kills someone will pay the price." Shangguan Qian sneered, and tightly held onto Cui Zhu's hand: "Your suffering, I will double it back to them."

Cui Zhu's eyes stared at her, biting her lips, "Cui Zhu doesn't look forward to anything else, I only hope that the princess will be fine."

"What can we do in great Yan? I have to stand my ground. " Shangguan Qian's eyes flashed with fierceness. After all, she was a foreigner, and even if she had the backing of a large group of bandits, she was still someone who could not be saved.

"Shangguan Qian..."

Just then, a man's shout came from outside the door. She walked out in large strides, just in time to see Li Qingying standing in the courtyard.

He stood in the middle of the courtyard with a pure smile on his face. It was a very clean smile, but ?

Shangguan Qian frowned, thinking about his previous life, the first person to die miserably in Li Fengyi's hands was him.

"Why are you here?"

Li Qingying was a little unhappy and walked over in large strides. "Hey, are you unhappy seeing me?"

"Why should I be happy?"

"Shangguan Qian, you..."

She raised her eyebrows and said in a light tone, "Eighth Prince, you barged into my courtyard without permission. It wouldn't be good if people saw you doing so."

"What's wrong with that?" Li Qingying opened her mouth without a care, "I want you to ask me how I draw the painting. It's very interesting."

As he spoke, Li Qingying casually pushed open the door and directly walked in. "Come in, teach me."

A trace of helplessness surfaced on Shangguan Qian's face as he quietly left the place after glancing at a woman wearing pink clothes hiding outside the courtyard in the corner of his eyes.

Walking into the house, he prepared a cup of tea for Li Qingying and sat down quietly.

"Hey, didn't you promise to teach me?"

"Hong Ying, tell him the theory."

Shangguan Qian took a sip of tea, and heard chaotic footsteps coming in from outside. The door was pushed open with a bang, and Li Danfeng arrogantly barged in.

"Shangguan Qian! Let's see what you'll say this time! "

"Say what?" Shangguan Qian's face was indifferent, his eyes filled with a smile, and he asked softly: "What does Princess Danfeng want me to say?"

"You've all been caught by me, what are you arguing about?" Li Danfeng's starry eyes slightly widened as she stared at Li Qingying fiercely, "Eighth Prince, you barged into the Third Prince's Mansion on your own so that you could meet Shangguan Qian privately, right?"

Li Qingying laughed indifferently, "Li Danfeng, I'm not from Third Prince's Mansion, so I don't have time to play with you. I'm very busy right now, where did you come from, and where are you going?"

"You! I'm going to go tell elder brother Yi that you had best not leave! " Li Danfeng glared at the two of them as he quickly ran away.

Shangguan Qian had a dull face and was completely not nervous at all. He asked Hong Ying to give the special xuan paper to Li Qingying using the colored dye and he did not say another word.

Very soon, the sound of chaotic footsteps came up once again. Li Danfeng walked in while dragging Li Fengyi and glanced at them sarcastically.

"elder brother Yi, look at how close they are sitting ?"

"eighth brother, when did you come? Why didn't anyone notify me at home?" Li Fengyi frowned as he looked at the two seated side by side, and he felt more or less felt a little awkward.

Li Qingying was actually very calm, "Me? I climbed over the wall. "

"eighth brother, Qian Er and I are not married yet. If you guys get too close to each other, it would be bad if word spread out." Li Fengyi immediately opened his mouth, his tone full of bitterness.

"Didn't third brother say that you guys aren't married yet?" Li Qingying laughed, took the dye and walked in front of Li Fengyi, "Third brother, Qian Er is just living in your house, he hasn't gotten married yet."

Li Fengyi's expression changed. Although Li Qingying never cared about anything when he spoke, the words he said a moment ago clearly held some interest towards Shangguan Qian.

Shangguan Qian lived in the Three Sovereign Palaces, but Li Qingying had always come to the Palace for a private meeting. Even if he married Shangguan Qian in a year, if word spread out, it would not be so nice.

"eighth brother, what do you mean by that?"

"It's not that interesting, it's just that third brother's mind is sensitive and his thoughts are wandering. After I take the things, I will naturally leave." Li Qingying waved the thing in his hand and walked outside with big strides.

Li Fengyi stood in the room and clenched his fists. An animal with a strong desire would not allow others to spy on it, even if they did not like it.

"Shangguan Qian, you still haven't explained the situation to elder brother Yi. What is your relationship with him?" Li Danfeng asked with a face full of ridicule.

Shangguan Qian raised his eyebrows, and did not look at Li Danfeng, but turned his gaze towards Li Fengyi and asked with a smile, "Feng Yi, what do you think I have with him?"

"Even if it's nothing, it would not be pleasant if it were to be seen by outsiders. Qian Er, I hope you will behave yourself!" Li Fengyi's tone was low and carried warning.

Right now, Li Fengyi was talking about dignity to her? Why didn't he think of the word self-respect when he was with Shen Ruoqi?

Her eyes were full of ridicule, and she said indifferently: "Qian Er, remember."

Li Fengyi looked at her, and said with a calm tone, "Do your best."

With that, he walked out with big strides. Li Danfeng looked at her proudly, and said arrogantly: "Shangguan Qian, did you see that, elder brother Yi does not like you that much."

"Is that so?" She opened her mouth lightly, her eyes deep and serene. "Then who do you think he likes? Could it be Shen Ruoqi? "

"Humph, no matter who it is, I won't let you live!" Li Danfeng's expression froze, and he walked out with big strides.

Very quickly, they heard loud curses and ear-piercing howls from the courtyard.

"Princess Danfeng is too arrogant, she always takes Shen Ruoqi's anger, she is really unlucky."

"Is she unlucky?"

A trace of ridicule appeared in Shangguan Qian's eyes. A man is a slut. Wasn't the person she was looking for Li Danfeng on purpose?

Otherwise, how could Li Danfeng come here so quickly? She really couldn't stay idle.

After a quarter of an hour, the shouting finally stopped, and just at this time, Shen Ruoqi's hair stood on end. Chaos, his clothes falling apart as he barged in.

Her eyes were completely red as she scolded angrily, "Shangguan Qian, you must be happy seeing me like this, right?"

"I'm happy, of course I'm happy. You got yourself into a lot of trouble." Shangguan Qian took a sip of his tea, and said with a calm tone: "If you commit wrongdoings, you will commit them. You should not understand this logic."

"Hmph, who do you think you are? Don't think that I don't know, you were the one who framed me in the past! Why are you so scheming? " Shen Ruoqi could not help but scold loudly, he looked as if he was a madman.

"My schemes?" She faintly looked at Shen Ruoqi, and said: "Shen Ruoqi, you really want too many things, your selfishness is too heavy, aren't you feeling very good right now? became the warmth of the Third Prince. "Bed, to be able to be together with him at all times, what else is there for you to be unsatisfied with!"

"You ?" Although on the surface, she was the one who had picked up the cut, she was already Li Fengyi's sweetheart before he even got married. Bed.

But in actuality, with how arrogant Li Danfeng was, he couldn't tolerate her at all. How could she bear coming to find her and beat her up every two or three days?

Furthermore, even if she said that she was pregnant, if Third Prince knew that she wasn't, who knows what she would do.

Her future was worrisome, and the one controlling all of this was Shangguan Qian. This woman who looked simple on the outside, was actually a meticulous person!

"Shangguan Qian, what kind of good thing are you? Aren't you a private meeting with a man at night? Don't think that I don't know! " Shen Ruoqi was so angry that he scolded.

Shangguan Qian's eyes slightly narrowed, as he stared at Shen Ruoqi. Could it be that Shen Ruoqi saw Nightingale last night?

"Since you saw it, go and tell Li Fengyi. Let's see if he believes you.
