Just as Situ Xunxiao left, Qingqing hurriedly knocked on the door of the inner room.

"Who?" Zong Zheng Xiaoting was disturbed by the knock on the door, and a somewhat unhappy voice came from inside the door.

"Princess, it's me."

"Come in." After reorganizing his thoughts, Zong Zheng Xiaoting shook his head, causing the tassels on his hair to sway and make popping sounds.

Qingqing pushed the door open and saw that her master had a look of distress on her face. Qingqing asked softly, "Princess, what's wrong with you?"

Looking at Qingqing's worried face, Zongzheng Xiaoting did not hide his emotions for the first time and shook his head slowly, "I was just wondering, did I really win this deal? If I hadn't been so overconfident at the beginning, would my situation be better now?"

What Zong Zheng Xiaoting didn't say was that if she hadn't underestimated the enemy at the beginning and hadn't felt so good about herself that she misunderstood Situ Xunxiao's feelings for her, she wouldn't have lost him without realizing it. And at this moment, her unhappiness seemed ridiculous.

Not understanding what her master meant, Qingqing blinked in confusion, "Princess, I don't understand what you are saying. No matter who loses or wins in this deal, the princess has never been able to decide for herself. No matter what choice she makes, it is still up to her, isn't it?"

Qingqing's direct words made Zong Zheng Xiaoting come out of her sorrow. Yes, no matter if she was prepared or not, what was coming would never go away. And when did she, Zong Zheng Xiaoting, sink into such sorrow? Moreover, even if Situ Xunxiao was devoted to her, she was destined to leave after six years. So it was better to keep something in her heart than to express her feelings.

Zong Zheng Xiaoting came out of her dilemma, and her confusion gradually turned into clarity. She smiled at Qingqing, "You're right, some things are destined."

Qingqing looked at Zongzheng Xiaoting. Although she did not say much or describe in detail, she could clearly feel that her master seemed to have regained the aura and spirit that she was supposed to have.

Sure enough, with Zong Zheng Xiaoting's next words, Qingqing's worries disappeared.

"Is there any news from Gong Yunluo?"

"There isn't any big change, but it's a little strange." Qingqing raised her head slightly, thinking and answering, "It's not early now, and Princess Yunluo and Princess Yunfei are so close that they can't bear to see Princess Yunfei so anxiously. However, she sent someone to follow the Queen Mother back to the palace when she returned, and hurriedly took Princess Yunfei to the palace."

Gong Yunfei?

Zong Zheng Xiaoting narrowed her eyes dangerously. She felt a little sympathetic towards Gong Yunluo. After all, she was stupid. She loved someone. Although this love was stupid, it was sincere. However, she had a deep rejection and even an inexplicable disgust towards Gong Yunfei. She knew that the two sisters admired Situ Xunxiao, but compared to the truth of Gong Yunluo's love, she had a little admiration. However, for Gong Yunfei, she dared to love but dared not say it. Even from her eyes, her words and deeds, she concealed all her mental states very well. But it was precisely because of such deep scheming that she was so wary of her.

Regardless of whether she got her answer from the micro-expressions, the intuitive alertness when she saw Gong Yunfei for the first time made her feel that this person was not an easy person to deal with. She thought, I am afraid that Gong Yunluo was often played around by others, and it is still unknown whether he was used to the fullest! Sometimes, there are some feelings that do not require any scientific theory to guide. Because people's intuition often has a natural sensitivity to things that they are wary of. And in her observation, Situ Xunxiao does treat Gong Yunluo and Gong Yunfei differently. To put it simply, to Gong Yunluo, he is at least a little human.

Zong Zheng Xiaoting smiled as he let Qingqing take off the ornaments on her hair. "Qingqing, which of these two princesses do you think is the most stupid?"

"Uh... stupid as a pig?" Qingqing stopped combing Zongzheng Xiaoting's hair and tried her best to suppress the expression of laughter on her face. "Of course it's Princess Yunluo."

As Qingqing answered, she imagined the scene of Dumb as a Pig and Gong Yunluo overlapping, and her face became redder and redder.

"There's no one else here, so laugh if you want to!" Knowing what Qingqing was thinking at the moment, Zong Zheng Xiaoting couldn't help but laugh.

After getting Zong Zheng Xiao Ting's permission, Qing Qing felt relieved and laughed out loud. After a long while, she stopped laughing. "I guess the princess must have some thoughts in her mind when she asked Qing Qing this question, right?"

Zong Zheng Xiaoting glanced at Qingqing, nodded in appreciation, and then stood up and turned to the bed, lying down again under Qingqing's help. "People who are as stupid as pigs are the easiest to use, but even if such people are sold, they will help count the money. Isn't her urgency the best proof?"

The look he cast at Qingqing contained some unspoken hints.

Qingqing blinked her eyes. "But Princess Yunfei looks like she has been suppressed by Princess Yunluo for a long time! Could it be that everything is just an illusion?"

"There are also people who have been bullied by Gong Yunluo for a long time, so they understand better how to use her personality to achieve what they want. What's more, you have been in the harem for many years, and there are not many women like her." Zong Zheng Xiaoting pulled the quilt and shook his head.

Qingqing rolled her eyes before nodding solemnly, "That's true. If that's the case, this person's mind is much more complicated."

Zong Zheng Xiaoting murmured in a low voice, although he was a little tired, "I am not afraid of god-like opponents, but I am afraid of pig-like teammates. I am very relieved about their combination. Tomorrow we will start preparing for the selection of concubines. I can borrow her plan to increase the capital of leaving the mansion."

Qingqing looked at Zongzheng Xiaoting's tired appearance and laughed softly, "Qingqing is looking forward to it. Princess, you should rest early and get enough energy."

"Hmm..." Zong Zheng Xiaoting's voice became lower and lower. As his eyelids became heavier, he closed his eyes heavily.

Qingqing watched her master fall asleep, then she tiptoed, carefully closed the door and walked out.

At this moment, in a quiet place in the villa of Prince Zhan's mansion, in Chen Xianzhi's room, a petite and delicate black shadow broke into the room under the cover of night.
