Dugu Yu came down from the stage, hugged Qin Qingyao and went home, and did not see Princess Anli in the corner from beginning to end.

Originally, Princess Anli came to attend this party just to receive a gift personally delivered by Dugu Yu.

After all, she was born into a prominent family and did not need fame, she had no worries about food and clothing and did not need money, and she did not care about anyone except Dugu Yu.

But in the end, she still didn't get what she wanted.

But even so, she was quite satisfied today. She couldn't see the compartments upstairs from the stage, and wondered what expression Dugu Yu had when he saw her dancing.

But her entire dance was performed for Dugu Yu alone.

If it weren't for Qin Qingyao's help, she would probably never have the opportunity to show her beauty in front of Dugu Yu. She was really grateful to Qin Qingyao.

Seeing Qin Qingyao cheering for Dugu Yu like that, she suddenly felt that it was good for Dugu Yu to have such a lively person by his side.

After Dugu Yu and the others left, Lin Xiafeng came to Princess Anli and asked, "What are you looking at, Princess?"

Princess An Li was a little embarrassed. "No, nothing. Um... I brought you here, but I asked you to perform on stage alone. I didn't have time to explain it to you properly before. I'm sorry."

Lin Xiafeng smiled and said, "The performance is over, why are you still talking about this?"

"But I really admire Princess Wu Ling for allowing you, a princess, to dance for her like the girls in the brothels."

Princess Anli frowned, feeling unhappy. "Sister Feng'er, did you misunderstand Princess Wu Ling? I don't think she's as annoying as you say."

Lin Xiafeng sighed softly, his face full of distress and helplessness, "Princess, you are too gullible. Do you really think Qin Qingyao taught you to dance for your own good?"

"Do you think she doesn't know how you feel about King Wu Ling? She said it herself: anyone who dares to covet King Wu Ling will be killed. Do you think she can tolerate you?"

The deepest secret in Princess Anli's heart was spoken out by Lin Xiafeng. She felt as uncomfortable as if she was stripped naked and put on display.

There are some things that everyone knows tacitly, but when they are really said out loud, the situation becomes very different.

"Princess, you have taken care of me so much before, and I have always been grateful to you. So, even if it makes you sad or angry, I must tell you. Otherwise, I will feel guilty!"

Princess Anli looked at Lin Xiafeng's angry face and asked as she wished, "What's the matter?"

"Qin Qingyao has been treating you like a fool from the beginning. She's just using you and your Prince Yi's Mansion to add luster to her party. She only cares about her own interests and has no regard for the royal dignity at all!"

"I know you've been rehearsing so hard for King Wu Ling."

"I know how sincere you are to King Wu Ling and how easily you satisfy him. You have no intention of competing with Qin Qingyao for anything."

"Even if the prince only takes the time to look at you, your hard work day and night rehearsals for the past half month will be worth it!"

"But, do you know..."

Lin Xiafeng suddenly stopped talking here, looking as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.

Princess Anli, "Know what?"

"King Wu Ling didn't even watch your performance!"

"How is that possible!"

Lin Xiafeng was filled with righteous indignation, "If I lied to you, the princess could have executed me right now!"

Princess Anli looked as if she had been struck by lightning, and her eyes were red.

"The dance Qin Qingyao performed before the emperor was a sword dance. She loves the spotlight, she loves to attract attention. Why would she take such pains to teach you this great opportunity instead of taking the stage and shining?"

"Do you really think she's doing this for your own good? She's just trying to humiliate you and make fun of you!"

"When my show just started, Qin Qingyao didn't allow Prince Wu Ling to watch it. Instead, he dragged him up to the third floor. They didn't come down until the last show of Prince Wu Ling's Mansion!"

Princess Anli shook her head in disbelief. "How is that possible? Why would she do that? You're right. I didn't even want to argue with her!"

Lin Xiafeng, "I also hope that King Wu Ling didn't do such a hurtful thing, but I saw it with my own eyes, how could it be fake?"

But what she saw was Dugu Yu carrying Qin Qingyao upstairs, not Qin Qingyao pulling Dugu Yu up.

They are family anyway, so what's the difference?

The once cold King Wu Ling, now with Qin Qingyao, has become more and more unscrupulous and shameless!

Princess Anli's head was buzzing with anxiety. She had rehearsed so hard, abandoning her dignity to perform on the same stage with all kinds of people, just so that Dugu Yu could look at her.

But from the beginning to the end, this was all just a trap set by Qin Qingyao?

Seeing her dancing so hard, was she feeling particularly proud? Was she laughing at her stupidity and wishful thinking?

Yes, is there any woman in this world who is willing to give up her man?

She actually believed that Qin Qingyao was willing to teach her to dance for her own good. She was really hopelessly stupid!

No wonder Dugu Yu did not serve as the award presenter from beginning to end. This was also the reason why Qin Qingyao deliberately lied to her in order to lure her into the trap in the beginning!

Princess Anli was so angry that she was shaking all over, and she completely forgot that Qin Qingyao had never mentioned letting Dugu Yu go on stage to present the award.

What's more, even if he goes on stage, he can only give the first prize, and it won't be hers!

Lin Xiafeng gently held Princess Anli's trembling hand and comforted her softly.

"Princess, calm down. Some things are better left unsaid. Getting mad will only make her more proud."

"You are simple-minded by nature, so it's normal that you can't defeat someone as shameless as her. Every failure is a lesson for you. You must not lose your dignity and grace in front of others because of her. You are a princess of the royal family!"

You are the princess of the royal family! Is it appropriate for you to just tremble with anger? Fight back! Fight back!

Lin Xiafeng successfully made all the good feelings that Princess Anli had accumulated towards Qin Qingyao disappear into thin air.

But there was one thing she was right about, that is, if Qin Qingyao knew that Princess An Li was interested in her man, she really would not get along with Princess An Li so friendly!

Not to mention teaching her to dance in front of her husband!

Lin Xiafeng didn't place any bets, so there was no account to settle. After chatting with Princess Anli for a while, she left leisurely with the little girl Caiwei.

It is her usual style to stop when the time is right and never personally engage in combat.

Prince Duan also left quietly because he had things to do when he returned home.

He actually heard what Qin Qingyao and her second brother were talking about in the cubicle today. Isn’t that a coincidence?

When he returned home and discussed it with his trusted advisors, everyone's eyes widened.

"Is there a spy among us? Or is there someone from Prince Wu Ling's mansion in the East Palace? Prince Wu Ling is really overreaching. What does he want to do?"

Princess Wuling discovered something that the crown prince himself didn't realize. The spies they placed in the East Palace are too powerful!

Ling Jingxuan thought about it carefully and felt that it was impossible for Dugu Yu to plant someone in the Eastern Palace. He couldn't compete for the throne, so why would he get involved in this mess?

Protecting the prince? You're just bored!

The only explanation is that the evil woman Qin Qingyao knew it herself, but how did she know it?

Ling Jingxuan thought about what happened before again. He still didn’t understand why Qin Qingyao knew that Qin Yuelin would be kicked out by Lu Hui?

Why did she know there were bandits on the mountain?

Why does she know so much about the murderer's thoughts?

Although this matter sounds mysterious, he has to believe that Qin Qingyao may not be an ordinary person.

Otherwise, how could she gain Dugu Yu's full trust and completely transform him into another person in just three or four months!

Is there really someone in this world who can predict the future? If there is, that would be too terrifying. It would be a waste for such a capable person to follow Dugu Yu, a prince of a different surname!

Ling Jingxuan was lost in thought. He would rather let others misunderstand that Dugu Yu had planted someone in the East Palace, making them take countless detours, than tell anyone his guess.

Qin Qingyao has this ability, and the fewer people who know about it, the better it is for him!

He wanted to see how many more surprises that woman would bring him!

However, he didn't know that Qin Qingyao had predicted far more things than the few he had counted.

But the murderer incident doesn't really count, that was Qin Qingyao's own guess. The reason she guessed it right was because she read a lot!

"Your Highness, Prince Duan, since someone has already tipped off the Crown Prince, do you think we should abort the operation and consider further considerations?"

Ling Jingxuan, "New Year's Day is tomorrow, how can we make long-term plans?"

"Then...how about we just leave it at that?"

"What a joke!"

Is this kind of solemn and dignified large-scale sacrificial ceremony possible every day? Don't miss this opportunity, or you'll have to wait a whole year!

Qin Qingyao is very powerful, but what’s the use of her being powerful alone?

She tried to stop Qin Yuelin from competing with Lu Hui, but failed.

She tried to stop the group of young ladies from going up the mountain, but failed.

As for that murderer, if she was really powerful, why couldn't she escape and was taken hostage?

So, she definitely followed the wrong person!

No matter how powerful you are, if you encounter a group of stupid teammates, you can only sigh in vain. It is better to know nothing!

Ling Jingxuan just wanted to take a gamble and see whether he was luckier or Qin Qingyao was more capable.

She knew a lot, and she told it, but would the prince listen?

Maybe she is just so unlucky that she can't stop anything?

If that were the case, she would be able to see more clearly how hopeless the prince was.

Faced with the olive branch he extended, she had even more reason to accept it!

If Qin Qingyao was willing to help him, that idiot Ling Jingyu would not even know how he died in the end!
