"Your Highness, Prince Sheng Yuan has arrived..." the young eunuch said, bending over.
"Spread it quickly..." Shang Chen's face lit up with joy, and he immediately stood up to greet them. He saw Huangfu Lingao and others walking in.
"Cousin..." Shang Chen hugged Huangfu Lingao, patted his shoulder, and said with a smile, "Cousin, you came so quickly."
"Meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."
"Meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."
Zhou Nian and Po Sha both saluted.
"Zhou Nian and Po Sha, thank you for your hard work..."
Shang Chen saw that the gloom between Po Sha's brows had dissipated a lot, and he also saw that although Zhou Nian looked exhausted, the brightness on her face could not be concealed.
On the contrary, my cousin, after not seeing him for a while, has become even more gloomy and cold-blooded than before.
Huangfu Lingao looked at his cousin whom he always respected, his expression warmed slightly, and he did not care about Shang Chen's jokes, and asked:
"Where is she?"
Shang Chen was stunned. He didn't expect that the first thing this person said was to ask about Qi Qing. He said with some regret: "It's really unfortunate. She has left the palace."
"Leave the palace?" Huangfu Lingao frowned slightly.
Shang Chen nodded: "It's been several hours, I will definitely be back before dinner."
It wasn't long before Huangfu Lingao's expression eased a little. "Where does she live? I'll go wait for her there."
"Qionghua Palace, let's go. I'll go with you. I have something I need to tell you..."
"Qionghua Palace?" Zhou Nian was stunned. After looking at Huangfu Lingao, he said, "Isn't Qionghua Palace..." the palace where the Queen of Shang lived?
Shang Chen was a little embarrassed. In the beginning, he placed him in Qionghua Palace purely because he left the Shang Palace when he was a child.
After coming back, there was no chance to come to the harem at all, so I was considering how to deal with Qiqing.
Apart from where I live, the first place that comes to my mind is the Qionghua Palace where I often stayed when I was a child.
It was not until Princess Ningxiang came to cause trouble that he realized that it was inappropriate to place Qiqing in Qionghua Palace.
But if Qiqing were to move away at that time, it would only make the matter more obvious.
The few of them talked as they walked, and when they were about to reach the gate of Qionghua Palace, Shang Chen explained Qiqing's situation to Huangfu Lingao.
"Crown Princess?" As expected, Huangfu Lingao's focus was on the fact that Tai Qiqing had now become Miss Yu, and Miss Yu had become Shang Chen's Crown Princess.
Shang Chen really felt like his scalp was tingling because he was being stared at by his cousin. He was thinking about how to explain.
Then he saw Huangfu Lingao looking ahead with an unclear expression, and Shang Chen turned around to look.
Just then, Chen Xiao and Qiqing came back.
Qiqing was accompanied by a man in white and a boy about seven or eight years old.
"Jade...Dustless..." The air around Huangfu Lingao froze in an instant.
If one were to say that the person Crown Prince Huangfu hated the most in his life was Imperial Master Zhibai, then the person he disliked the most was definitely Yu Wuchen.
As they looked at each other, undercurrents surged.
Shang Chen was stunned when he heard the name Huangfu Lingao said. He looked at the man in white. Is this the heir of the Qishan Yu family?
Chen Xiao cleverly hid beside Shang Chen. Xiao Bao also seemed to feel uneasy, holding Yu Wuchen and Qiqing's hands and shrinking back.
They look like a family of three!
Huangfu Lingao immediately thought of the scene he had just seen on Chang'an Street.
He was not wrong, the masked woman in purple was really her.
However, now that the men and children around Qiqing have changed, it has become even more of an eyesore.
Seeing Huangfu Lingao's increasingly unhappy expression, Shang Chen stepped forward to break this suffocating scene.
"Seven...Miss Yu is back?" he asked Yu Wuchen.
Qiqing indifferently withdrew her gaze from Huangfu Lingao and looked at Shang Chen.
It was clear in her mind. No wonder Shang Chen could so naturally give her the identity of Empress Sheng Yuan's niece and Huangfu Lingao's cousin.
I guess he knew Huangfu Lingao would come. No, it should be Shang Chen who notified Huangfu Lingao of his coming.
Qi Qing chuckled and said to Shang Chen, "Your Highnesses, the two Crown Princes truly have a deep brotherly bond..."
Shang Chen smiled bitterly, knowing... this had completely offended the person.
"I wonder who these two are?" Shang Chen asked with a stiff face.
In fact, what Shang Chen wanted to ask was, how could she leave the palace and bring back a man and a child?
Could it be that Miss Qiqing asked to leave the palace today just for these two people?
Qi Qing replied, "This is Yu Wuchen and Xiao Bao!"
He was speaking to Shang Chen, but his eyes were always on Huangfu Lingao.
Qiqing didn't know what attitude she should adopt towards Huangfu Lingao.
The days and nights when I practiced sword, the mornings and evenings when I painted.
It was not until later that I realized that those paintings of beauties with various expressions, all depicting the same person, were actually all of her!
She is the witch on Mount Qishan who people want to get rid of as soon as possible!
In those paintings, there is joy or sorrow, wildness or evil.
The various gestures and deep affections overflowed on the paper, and even she, who had never understood painting before, could still perceive it.
To her, Huangfu Lingao was different from Bai Ziyu and Ning Anan, the innocent and pure Qiqing they first fell in love with.
What Huangfu Lingao pretended in his heart at the beginning was the Seven Emotions of the Witch on Mount Qishan.
She almost became Huangfu Lingao's Crown Princess, although according to Huangfu Lingao.
That was just a stopgap measure, to take advantage of each other or to help each other.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, she was ignorant at that time.
But only she herself could understand that she was not without any feelings for Huangfu Lingao.
However, she already has Bai Ziyu, Ning Anan, Yu Wuchen, and even an unclear Dugu Ling.
Bai Ziyu is free and easy, Dugu Ling is casual, Ning Anan and Yu Wuchen have no other expectations from her and obey her every word.
Huangfu Lingao is not them, nor can he become them. He has the ability to look down on the world and the pride of being the only one who is superior.
In the future, he will be the king of Shengyuan Kingdom, ascend the throne as emperor, enthrone a queen, and have three thousand concubines in his harem.
And there was no way that she would give up on them and become one of Huangfu Lingao's three thousand concubines.
Since we are not destined to be together, there is no need to dwell on it.
In the midst of so many twists and turns, Qi Qing thought too much.
Huangfu Lingao looked at the pair of purple eyes that were staring straight at him.
No longer the dull and lifeless look in the Prince's Mansion.
Nor was it the murderous, cold-blooded and ruthless determination on the Jiuyou Stage.
He had thought more than once that if one day, Qiqing's eyes were no longer dead, but had different emotions.
What a scene that would be, but now that he saw it, he felt panicked.
He could almost sense that what Qiqing was thinking right now was definitely not what he wanted to hear.
So before Qi Qing could speak, Huangfu Lingao took action and quickly rushed towards Yu Wuchen beside him...
Qiqing pulled Xiaobao aside quickly. Xiaobao said nervously, "Sister Qiqing, Brother Yu..."
"It's okay, let them fight..."
