C37 To die is to be free

Shen Ruoqi clenched his teeth as he watched Shangguan Qian drink his tea. He felt like he was going crazy!

Right now, she was like a grasshopper being held in Shangguan Qian's hands. She could control it however she liked, but she didn't have the slightest ability to resist.

Even if she told Li Fengyi, how could the Li Fengyi who had no proof believe her?

"Why can't I speak? Shen Ruoqi, I helped you get what you wanted, you better behave yourself too, my patience is limited. " Shangguan Qian raised his eyebrows, his tone carrying a bit of ridicule, "One must learn to be content."

"Ruoqi ?" "Got it." Shen Ruoqi lowered her head in agreement, but her eyes were filled with unwillingness. Sooner or later, she would definitely trample over Shangguan Qian!

Noon, Shangguan Qian specially brewed some soup and brought it to the study room. There was a tanned looking man standing guard at the entrance, holding onto a sword in his hand, he released a strong killing intent.

This person's martial arts should not be weak, Shangguan Qian sized him up carefully, then smiled and opened the door, "I am here to see Third Prince."

"Third Prince will not see anyone." He spoke coldly, with no trace of respect in his tone.

Shangguan Qian raised his eyebrows, the smile on his face did not change, and walked to the door in large strides, but he was stopped.

"Please go back."

"Feng Yi, Feng Yi, my Qian Er, can you come out and see me?" Shangguan Qian shouted without a care. Her voice was loud, and her tone was especially sorrowful.

After a long while, the door finally opened. Li Fengyi expressionlessly looked at the woman at the door as a trace of anger flashed past his eyes.

"Why are you here?"

Shangguan Qian's eyes were filled with helplessness as she bit her lips, "I ? I cooked the soup myself. "

Li Fengyi sized her up, still acting cold and indifferent, and then said indifferently, "Then come in."

Shangguan Qian followed him into the study room. After looking around, he indeed saw a pair of black boots by the screen.

"I heard that you didn't eat lunch at noon, so I specially made some soup to come over." She placed the soup on the desk, and with a trace of fear on her face, she asked, "Just who was that person standing at the door? He's so scary, he has a ferocious look on his face."

"He is Zhui Feng." Li Fengyi replied indifferently, obviously still in the midst of the incident with Li Qingying.

Therefore, they were more or less displeased with Shangguan Qian's demonstration.

"The guards by your side? "Why haven't I seen it before? Right, try out my pot of soup. I've been cooking for a long time." Shangguan Qian laughed as he took out the scalding water, poured a bowl and handed it over to him.

When Li Fengyi took the bowl, he immediately grabbed her hand, and a look of astonishment flashed across his eyes, "Your hand ?"

Surprisingly, there were two scalding red blisters on her fair hands. After she was discovered, she wanted to hide it from him on purpose, so she quickly used her sleeve to block the blisters.

"It's all because Qian Er was too stupid, that he accidentally got hold of the hot pot for the first time."

Li Fengyi grabbed her hand, a complicated look flashing across his eyes with a hint of disbelief. After all, Shangguan Qian was a princess with golden branches and jade leaves, and to be able to personally cook soup for him, it seemed like his position in the bottom of Shangguan Qian's heart was unshakable.

And her actions undoubtedly proved to him that she had nothing to do with Li Qingying.

"Next time, just ask the servant to do it. Why would you have to cook it yourself?" Li Fengyi's tone of voice clearly became gentler, and a few traces of gentleness appeared in the depths of her eyes.

"Qian Er knew that the things that happened in the morning made you unhappy, but Qian Er did not know that Eighth Prince would suddenly appear in the courtyard. Feng Yi, don't be angry, Qian Er is really not close with Eighth Prince." Shangguan Qian looked at him sincerely, his eyes full of self-blame.

"I already know that this is the nature of Eighth Prince. As your big brother, how could I not be clear about this? Don't blame yourself." Li Fengyi caressed her long hair and smiled, "Qian Er, in a few days, the Emperor will organize a hunt. Do you want to go?"

Shangguan Qian's eyes flashed with wisdom. Light, hunting! How could she not go? She remembered that Li Fengyi had killed Li Qingying in the hunt, so if she wanted to break his plans, she had to go.

"Qian Er, you want to go?"

"En, prepare yourself for the next few days, so that I can take you out to relax."

Shangguan Qian nodded her head repeatedly, with a blush on her face. Concussive, she leaned gently into Li Fengyi's embrace.

Walking out of Li Fengyi's study, the bashfulness on Shangguan Qian's face all disappeared, and then changed into a calm, deep expression.

If he wanted to know more, he could only get closer to Li Fengyi. If not, what was the use of living here?

No wonder Li Fengyi had been busy these past few days, it should be the appropriate time to plan for the hunt.

Although she could not remember what happened at that time, but she knew that Li Qingying's death in the end was an accident.

From this, it could be seen that Li Fengyi's plan was extremely meticulous, not even a single flaw could be found.

"Shangguan Qian, why are you here?" Li Danfeng, who was dressed in fine Chinese clothes, coldly asked as a middle-aged man impressively followed behind her.

The middle-aged man wore blue clothings, had a square face, was handsome, and had a deep and serene gaze that gave others a kind and ruthless look.

Just by looking at him, one could tell that he was not a simple person. He was a very shrewd person.

But she had never seen him in the mansion, so who was he?

"Qian Er cooked some soup for Feng Yi, and sent it over just now."

"elder brother Yi won't like your broth, in the future, you are not allowed to cook broth anymore!" Li Danfeng arrogantly muttered as he walked towards the study room.

"This must be the princess. I am the Housekeeper Li of the Third Prince's Mansion, I was absent from my residence some time ago, if there is anything the princess needs, she can come find me immediately." Although Housekeeper Li's words were sincere, on the surface, he did not feel any sense of inferiority.

Shangguan Qian could not help but look at him a few more times, then said with a smile, "Qian Er has something to ask Housekeeper Li, so he will be leaving first."

Housekeeper Li looked at the woman who was walking away, the smile on his face completely disappeared, and he walked towards the study room.

Just as he was approaching, he heard Li Danfeng's loud voice.

"elder brother Yi, how could you eat her food? Stop eating!"

"Danfeng, I'm busy right now, stop messing around!" Li Fengyi's voice was low, obviously a little angry already.

Housekeeper Li immediately walked in, and saw the soup cup on the ground at first glance, and Li Danfeng was even more furious as he held it out to Li Fengyi.

"Princess Danfeng, Third Prince is busy, let's not disturb him."

"What do you know!" Li Danfeng scolded fiercely, his eyes turned red: "I don't like Shangguan Qian, I just don't like her!"

Housekeeper Li, when did you come back? Li Fengyi did not care about Li Danfeng, and turned his gaze towards Housekeeper Li instead.

"I've only been at the mansion for two hours, and I've already finished my work."

"elder brother Yi, you're ignoring me." elder brother Yi, you're ignoring me. Li Danfeng pulled at his clothes with a wronged look on his face.

"You've already lost your soup cup, what else do you want?" I'm busy, get out. "

"elder brother Yi ?"

Li Fengyi's face revealed a stern look, "Get out!"

Li Danfeng reluctantly glanced at him for a moment, then walked out of the study, angrily continuing his way.

"Housekeeper Li, tell me, why do you think the elder brother Yi doesn't like me?"

This unintentional sentence caused Housekeeper Li's expression to change greatly. "Princess Danfeng, you and Third Prince are cousins, you better not have such thoughts."

"Sigh ?" Li Danfeng bit his lips, sighed, and walked away.

Right at this moment, Bai mama appeared and waved at him, walking up to him and saying in a low voice, "concubine Jin is waiting for you."

At night, it was as quiet as the night sky. A black shadow nimbly walked on the roof before finally landing in a yard.

Shangguan Qian held onto the book in his hand, his face had a look of exhaustion, he yawned, and the window suddenly opened, a cold wind blew in, causing the candle to tremble, almost extinguishing it.

"Little girl, do you miss me?" Nightingale smiled mischievously as she took over her bed, her tone was somewhat frivolous.

Shangguan Qian looked at his Yin. Her gentle face was even more beautiful than a woman's, as she sourly asked, "Hey, why aren't you wearing a mask anymore? If you reveal your beauty, don't be afraid to take on the role of a prodigal. I'm playing with you? "

"Don't you think I'm handsome?" Nightingale quickly rushed to her side, her peach blossom eyes carried a trace of a smile, the candlestick flickered, and the room instantly became pitch-black.

The room became exceptionally quiet in an instant, but Shangguan Qian could still feel the oppression brought about by the man in front of him.

Ye Zichen poked him on the chest with a finger, then said softly, "Why did you put out the light?"

"Shh ?"

Her ice-cold fingers pressed against Shangguan Qian's lips, causing the surroundings to immediately fall into a deathly silence. He moved his body a bit and something flew out of the window with a swoosh.

"Aiya ?"

A cry of alarm was heard from outside the courtyard, and very quickly, the person ran into the house in a flustered manner.

His finger was still on her lips, and the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became weird, all the way until he could no longer hear anything, only then did Shangguan Qian slap his hand to the side, and sat down again.

"What did you just throw out?"

"Cups, that person must have been hit hard."

Nightingale giggled in the darkness, "Why didn't you get rid of her?"

"Get rid of her? What's the point of that? It would be more fun to keep her. " Shangguan Qian's voice carried a hint of playfulness, "Death is true release."

"The people you have taken a fancy to will probably be met with great misfortune. You're a woman that isn't to be trifled with."

"Nightingale, I need you to help me investigate a list." Shangguan Qian said in all seriousness.

"List?" "What list."

"The name list of Li Fengyi's subordinates, or should I say his clique, Nightingale, you should help me." Shangguan Qian asked with uncertainty, this was completely going against him.

"It's not impossible for you to help me." Nightingale said in a teasing tone, "Give me a kiss, even if you want me to go up the mountain of blades or go down the sea of fire, I would be willing to do so."

"Stop talking, if you don't help, just pretend that I don't know you." Shangguan Qian walked with large strides to the window, his tone light, "Let's go, farewell."
