Chapter 9



Qin Shuhuai led his men to the west compartment. As soon as he reached the door, he heard Qin Peng's breath coming from inside: "Wait... yes, right there... harder... ah..."

Qin Peng's voice was tender and gentle. It was obvious that she was in pain, and she shouldn't have any other emotions. But when she called out in that soft voice, the men and women present blushed instantly. Only Qin Shuhuai remained calm, like an old tree that had taken root and was very stable.

Qin Shuhuai stood at the door and glanced at the butler beside him. The butler immediately stepped forward and knocked on the door, saying, "Your Highness, are you resting?"

"Ah... wait a minute." Qin Peng was feeling comfortable being massaged. When she heard the housekeeper's voice, she knew that it was Qin Shuhuai who came to visit her. She had nothing to worry about, so she said to the maid behind her, "Go down." Then she stood up and began to put on her clothes.

After she put on her clothes, she lazily said to the outside, "Come in."

The people outside couldn't wait any longer. Qin Shuhuai stood on the corridor. Although he didn't say anything, everyone felt trembling.

They had let a girl get in so easily, their vigilance must have been completely wiped out.

A lot of people were filled with shame and anger, especially the deceived housekeeper. When he heard the noise inside, he used all his strength to push the door open. After that, he saw Qin Peng lying lazily on the couch, glancing at him with sidelong eyes.

That look made people's hearts itch. The men who rushed in subconsciously took a step back. Qin Peng was dressed neatly and sat... not out of place, but it always made people feel that the scene was indecent. Qin Peng's eyes fell on Qin Shuhuai's face, who was motionless, and said with a smile: "The prince is here? Come on," Qin Peng patted the cushion beside him: "Sit down, let's talk about business."

"Fourth Princess," Qin Shuhuai said indifferently, "You may have forgotten your identity."

"My identity?" Qin Peng laughed: "I haven't forgotten it. I went to see the prince, but he refused to see me. I have no choice, right?"

Qin Shuhuai said nothing. Looking at the woman in front of him who looked particularly charming even in a plain robe, he inexplicably thought of Zhao Peng.

Zhao Peng is the same. If the occasion is not too serious, he will act in such a non-serious manner. Although he looks elegant and indifferent, he can use his foxy smile and laziness to turn himself into the reincarnation of a fox spirit.

Everyone looked down upon it, yet secretly wanted to get closer.

But Zhao Peng just liked to see the hypocritical look of others who said no but fluttered towards her like a swarm of bees and butterflies when she flirted with them.

She had said to him before, Qin Shuhuai, what I hate most is people being too good. The more serious you are, the more I want to see you being unserious; the more you pretend to be calm, the more I want to see you being uncalm.

Now when Qin Peng looked at him, his eyes were full of familiar expressions, which made him suddenly have the illusion that the spirit of an old friend had returned.

But……

Qin Shuhuai suppressed the chaotic thoughts that were surging up in his mind and told himself, how could this be possible?

That person has been dead for six years. If he wanted to come back, he should have come back long ago. She liked him so much and felt sorry for him so much. How could she bear to watch him crying over her body without saying a word? How could she bear to watch him be alone and silent for so many years? How could she bear to watch him treat herself like this and become what he is now step by step?

She was dead, completely dead. If she really came back, she would definitely tell him first and then ask him, Shuhuai, are you living well?

But the person in front of him was only thinking about how to compete with him for power and protect the nine-year-old emperor. How could this person be his Peng Peng?

Qin Shuhuai slowly recovered his confused mind, but because of this moment of hesitation, his initial anger disappeared. He did not intend to say more to Qin Peng, and said calmly: "Princess, you can go back now that you have made enough noise."

"How can this be possible?" Qin Peng smiled and said, "What if I go out and the prince doesn't want to see me? What should I do?"

"Are you planning to stay here?" Qin Shuhuai's face was calm, without any anger, which surprised Qin Peng. She climbed up the pole and said, "Are you planning to let me stay here?"

"Drag him out and throw him away."

Qin Shuhuai left these words and turned away. Qin Peng was stunned. Two big and strong women had come to her side, holding her arms on the left and right. Qin Peng was a little panicked and said anxiously: "Wait, Qin Shuhuai, I am a princess! How can you treat me like this? Let go! Let me go!"

Qin Peng spoke anxiously, pushing the two women from the left and right. The two women were very strong, and lifted Qin Peng up into the air and walked out of the gate.

Chun Su trotted after them and shouted, "How dare you! Put down the princess! You are simply too presumptuous..."

A moment later, the door of the Huai'an Palace opened, and Qin Peng was thrown out directly, and then the door of the palace slammed shut. Chun Su came forward to help Qin Peng, and said with a look of being about to cry: "Master, what are you doing!"

Qin Peng took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart.

She originally thought that Qin Shuhuai would still give her some face, but she didn't expect that after not seeing her for a few years, Qin Shuhuai's temper became even worse. A princess, he actually... threw her away without hesitation!

Just rush out, why throw people away? !

Qin Peng has always believed that a shameless person is invincible, but today he finally realized that in front of Qin Shuhuai, if you are shameless, he will completely deny you face.

But it’s okay… we’ve achieved our goal.

Qin Peng was helped up by Chun Su, and he kept repeating: "It's okay, I'm generous, I'm not angry, it's no big deal..."

Chun Su was frightened by Qin Peng's mysterious look and started to cry. Qin Peng thought about it and couldn't help it. He pushed Chun Su away and rushed to the gate of Huai'an Palace. He kicked the door twice and shouted angrily: "Qin Shuhuai, you bastard!"

After yelling, Qin Peng's anger finally subsided a lot. She turned around and said in a hurry while Chun Su was stunned: "Go back home!"

After returning to the mansion, Qin Peng was called over by Old Lady Wei the next morning.

Old Lady Wei was having breakfast with her and kept looking at Qin Peng. Qin Peng couldn't stand Old Lady Wei's meaningful look, so she put down her bowl and chopsticks and said, "Mother, just tell me what you want to say."

"That is... I heard that you stayed in the Huai'an Palace until the evening yesterday?"

Qin Peng was not surprised to hear this, and smiled gently, "Who did mother hear this from? Did you hear it from one of our own people, or from outsiders?"

"Of course he is one of our own family," said Old Lady Wei quickly, "Your reputation is fine, don't worry."

Qin Peng nodded, and Old Lady Wei added: "But it doesn't matter if your reputation is in trouble. I don't mind as long as you are happy. My eldest daughter-in-law, you have been a widow for so many years. I support you to remarry. Qin Shuhuai is indeed a good guy. If you marry him, it will be a strong alliance, and he won't want to deal with Yan'er. I think it's good."

Qin Peng: “…”

Old Lady Wei's thinking was indeed strange. She wanted to remind Old Lady Wei that she was her husband's family, not her natal family. If Qin Shuhuai really married her, even if he didn't mind the Wei family, he would definitely not like it, not to mention not bothering Wei Yan for her.

However, she felt that this was hurtful, as it was obvious that Old Lady Wei regarded her as a concubine, so she explained, "Don't think too much, mother. I went to the Huai'an Palace to get information."

"To get information?" Old Lady Wei was stunned. Qin Peng nodded and said, "To save my uncle, the more information we have, the more help we will get. Mother, please don't listen to what others say. I am making all the preparations to save my uncle."

"Is that so..." Old Madam Wei's voice sounded somewhat disappointed. Qin Peng glanced at Old Madam Wei and really wanted to wake this old lady up. Why are you so disappointed?

After breakfast, Qin Peng went to Qin Shuhuai's house to keep an eye on him.

This time she couldn't get in, so she hid in the carriage and stared at the Huai'an Palace.

Tomorrow is the day when Qin Shuhuai will take action. If she can hold on for another day, she will win.

The two maids, Chun Su and Qiu Su, no longer understood what Qin Peng was doing. They just thought that their master was crazy, so they just listened to Qin Peng's instructions and bought all kinds of food for her to eat in the carriage.

Of course, all of Qin Peng's actions were recorded in Qin Shuhuai's eyes. Ever since Qin Peng appeared in Huai'an Palace, Qin Shuhuai's spies went to report.

"My Lord, the Fourth Princess is here again."

"My Lord, the Fourth Princess hasn't left yet."

"My Lord, the Fourth Princess is still insisting..."

After Qin Shuhuai finished his important business, he finally had time to pay attention to Qin Peng. He took all the confessions of his servants yesterday and read them one by one.

"She is very familiar with the palace," Qin Shuhuai said calmly, looking at the servant's confession, "She has been asking about my whereabouts."

Jiang Chun stood aside and listened, somewhat absent-mindedly. Qin Shuhuai read the confession and raised his head.

"Jiang Chun."

"I am here."

"What do you think the Fourth Princess wants to do by pestering me like this?"

"I think there are two possibilities. First, the Fourth Princess is hatching a conspiracy!"

"It's as good as not saying anything."

"Second!" Jiang Chun raised his head: "I think the fourth princess might be pursuing you!"

Qin Shuhuai paused slightly as he turned the hand in his mouth. After a moment, he threw the confession in his hand directly into Jiang Chun's face.

"Read less novels."
