C44 Someone Wanted to Steal the Old Prince's Wife
“I don’t have any handkerchief!” Lan Qingqian felt wronged. Her handkerchief was brought by Chun Su, but the old prince didn’t let Chun Su come with him. How could she have a handkerchief?
She thought that the old prince was afraid of dirtying Wei Lianyi’s handkerchief.
She said, “Use Miss Wei’s. You can wash it after you clean it. Or you can wash your hands. Anyway, you can’t wipe my clothes.”
Only then did Wei Lianyi’s expression become a little better. It turned out that the prince was worried that she would dirty her handkerchief. She was about to say, “Your Highness!”
Gu Junan didn’t wait for her to say anything. He stood up and went to wash his hands.
Gu Xinghe saw her recklessly contradicting Old Seven Gu and said, “Little bean sprout, you really are a newborn calf that doesn’t fear a tiger. You dare to contradict Old Seven Gu!”
Lan Qingqian lifted her head from the rice bowl and said fiercely, “Gu Xiaowu, you want to get beaten up again, don’t you?” She was already angry with Gu Xiaowu. This person was very annoying and had tried to bully and tease her over and over again. She was also very unkind to him. He was like a little beast that had entered her territory. He roared and wanted to chase her out.
Lan Qingqian ate a lot, so most of the food on the table was only half-full. She put down her chopsticks reluctantly and said, “I should eat less and save my stomach for other good food.”
“Miss, the brown sugar ice powder is ready!” The maid came to report.
Wei Lianxi stood up and wanted to take it. Coincidentally, Gu Jun’an was alone and she could talk to him.
Lan Qingqian looked up and said happily, “It’s just nice. I’ve been waiting for a long time. Miss Wei, I can’t wait. I’ll go with you!” Lan Qingqian didn’t know her purpose. She just wanted to eat the brown sugar ice powder and go back.
“Princess, please!” It was just a small matter. Wei Lianxi saw that she was much younger than her, and she was a princess. She couldn’t refuse her.
“There are some fresh tea and snacks in the kitchen. Princess, you can go and see if you like anything.”
Lan Qingqian stood up and snorted. She said to Gu Xinghe, “Gu Xiaowu, you can stay here alone.”
Gu Xinghe held the wine cup and said with contempt, “Childish!”
Lan Qingqian followed Wei Lianxi and looked at the little princess jumping around. Wei Lianxi suddenly had a thought. She couldn’t be the Seventh Princess, but the Ninth Princess was so young. She was the concubine of the Seventh Prince and was no different from the mistress.
“Ninth Princess, aren’t you lonely in the prince’s mansion? If there are other sisters in the prince’s mansion, they’ll be much better. Actually, I also like the princess. I feel so close to the princess when I see her.” Wei Lianxi said gently.
“What sisters? There are no sisters in the prince’s mansion!” Lan Qingqian didn’t understand what she meant.
Wei Lianqian continued, “They are all the other concubines of the princess!”
Lan Qingqian immediately understood when she heard that. The princes had many concubines, and the Empress said that they were all little fairies. They came to the palace just to chase her away.
“You want to be the Little Fairy of the Prince’s side!” This was a question, not an affirmation.
“You can’t say that! Your Highness, the Prince has already made an engagement with me. I just want to be your sister and take care of the Prince!” Wei Lianqian quickly said. This was the Ninth Princess who had snatched her marriage.
“Hmph! The Prince doesn’t like you, so he won’t take you. Dream on!” Lan Qingqian exhaled and glared at her. She ignored her and turned around to go back the way she came.
Wei Lianqian was shocked and knew that she was angry. She immediately said, “Sigh, Your Highness, I didn’t mean that…” As if she was afraid that she would complain, she immediately followed her.
“I really don’t have any ill intentions towards the princess. Princess, listen to me…” In her panic, she couldn’t care about etiquette and formalities. She changed her words to ‘I’. She couldn’t let this little girl talk bad about her in front of the Prince. Otherwise, who would she be?
Lan Qingqian’s small steps were filled with anger. She pursed her lips tightly and didn’t say a word.
Gu Jun’an just happened to come back from washing his hands. He hadn’t said much to Gu Xinghe. The little girl immediately rushed to him and grabbed his sleeve tightly. Her face was obviously filled with anger and annoyance.
“Who is so blind as to provoke you? Have you eaten the brown sugar ice powder?” Gu Jun’an’s cold voice was filled with concern.
