Chapter 152 The Crown Prince is a Woman 4
Qiu Chi wandered around outside for a while, but when he felt it was boring, he returned home.
The door of the mansion that was locked for her and the third place winner had been opened, but when they went in they only saw the third place winner lying on the ground, and Qiu Chi was nowhere to be seen.
They thought something had happened, and hurriedly helped the third place winner up, asking anxiously, "My Lord, where is the princess? Where did the princess go?"
The princess is the emperor's only child. Even if the emperor doesn't care much, if something happens to the princess, they will definitely be dead.
Tanhualang said weakly, "I don't know, she ran away on her own."
What happened today really refreshed Tanhualang's cognition, and he felt a little desperate.
With such a tigress around, is there any chance for him and his Wan'er?
Can he just dream about this tigress being destined to die young? Although it’s not good, he just wants to imagine it.
Qiu Chi didn't know about the various psychological descriptions of Tanhualang. She only knew that when she came back, the yard was full of people.
As soon as she appeared, all those people knelt down.
Qiu Chi was speechless: "What are you doing?"
The maid in front said to the eunuch, "Princess, it's not that we are restraining you. It's the Emperor who has ordered you not to go out for the next three days. You are a precious person, a body worth a thousand gold. If you run away and something happens to you, we will be dead. Even if you don't think about us, you should think about yourself."
Qiu Chi looked at the person kneeling on the ground and fell silent.
Although she knew she was fine, these people didn't know.
Moreover, she is a bit soft-hearted and does not respond to tough measures. If these people directly bring up the emperor and threaten her not to go out, then she will naturally act as unruly as she can.
But these people just didn't do that, so Qiu Chi couldn't be tough anymore.
She curled her lips and said, "Get up. I won't go out for the next two days."
It's impossible not to go out, the best I can do is to prevent them from finding out.

When Qiu Chi returned to the room, he saw the third place winner with a dazed look on his face.
After pouring himself a glass of water, Qiu Chi asked leisurely, "Are you awake now?"
The third place winner touched his face, but still couldn't come back completely from the sky.
"How are you... so powerful?"
Even though he was not a martial artist, he was still a man, and he had helped his family with farm work, so he still had some strength. But in front of her, he couldn't even resist.
This made him wonder if they were born of the wrong gender.
Seeing that he looked like an idiot, Qiu Chi didn't want to pay any attention to him.
"If you're alright, go back to your own yard."
The third place winner stood up and behaved very well. It turned out that a beating was very useful.
He just walked out the door, but before he even left the yard, he was stopped: "My Lord, what are you going to do? If there is anything you need to do, just tell this servant."
Tanhualang looked back at the room where Qiuchi was, then turned back and said, "I want to go out for a walk."
"If you feel bored staying indoors, you can ask the princess to go out for a walk with you."
This means that I can't do it alone, and the two of them must stay together.
The third place winner sighed and returned to his room. "It's not that I don't want to go back to my own courtyard, but they won't allow me. I really hate myself for being so good-looking. If it weren't for this face, the emperor probably wouldn't look down on me."
Qiu Chi glanced at him speechlessly: "I didn't realize you were so narcissistic."
"Narcissism is a good word, but I'm not being narcissistic. This is the truth. Although I pride myself on being talented, there are people who are more talented than me.
Take, for example, the top scholar of my time. His talent was only slightly higher than mine, but why did the emperor choose me over him? It must be because of my outstanding appearance."
Before, Tanhualang was very dissatisfied with Qiuchi and spoke to him in a sarcastic and mocking manner, which made him deserve a beating.
Now that he had been beaten, and seeing that Qiu Chi obviously had no such intention towards him, he breathed a sigh of relief and became talkative.
"I obviously didn't expect this scene. Becoming the third place in the imperial examination is a happy event, and being granted marriage by the emperor is also a matter of honor for the family. But I already have a lover."
"I'm not saying the princess is bad, but even if the princess is good in every way, in my heart, the man in my heart is still the best."
"She has been with me since I had nothing. She worried that I would have a hard time and even earned money from embroidery to support me. If I betray her, I would be a heartless person, worse than pigs and dogs."
"Princess, do you think what I said is right?"
Qiu Chi took a sip of tea and glanced at Tanhualang with a half-smile, which made Tanhualang tremble with fear before he spoke.
"Okay, put your little thoughts aside. After these three days, you and your sweetheart can love each other however you want."
There was a hint of surprise on the face of the third place winner, but then his face fell and he sighed: "Poor Wan'er, you have to follow me like this without any name or status..."
Qiu Chi couldn't help but slapped him: "Stop talking nonsense, don't you know that you have to take one step at a time? It will make you and your sweetheart live together forever."
Tanhua Lang then happily thanked Qiu Chi, "Princess, your kindness is so great that I will never forget it. If there is anything that the princess needs in the future, I will certainly help her without hesitation."
Qiu Chi ignored him and looked him up and down.
Seeing him holding his chest in fear of being taken advantage of, Qiu Chi wanted to slap him.
"Save your breath, even if you cry and beg me on your knees, I won't look down on you. Just stand still and don't move."
Although this third place winner is also a weakling, compared to that loser Jian Ninghua, he is still quite pleasing to the eye.
She didn't really want to work so hard to be the emperor, but she was also not happy with Jian Ninghua being the emperor, so she could only find someone else.
Qiu Chi gestured for the third place winner to sit down and asked, "If one day you could have three harems and six courtyards, with all the beauties in the world for you to choose from, what would you do?"
Tanhualang obviously didn't have such thoughts. When he heard Qiuchi's words, he was shocked: "Three palaces and six courtyards, only the emperor can have them..."
He quickly shut his mouth. Seeing Qiu Chi glaring at him and raising her fist, he said hastily, "Princess, please don't embarrass me. I am loyal to the Emperor and have no thoughts of rebellion. Besides, there is only Wan'er in my heart. No matter how beautiful other people are, it doesn't matter to me."
Although there was a very fake show of loyalty before, Qiu Chi still got the answer he wanted.
She didn't say whether she believed it or not, she just patted the top scholar on the head and said, "Remember what you said today, if you can't do it, you will die."
Tanhualang must not have thought there was anything wrong: "A gentleman's word is his bond."
