Chapter 250 Precious Things
Now I remembered that in order to make that scumbag Xiao Zirui give up and stay away from her, she did say that she would make sure that Xiao Changheng could see the light again, to the point where he would be able to see a mosquito leg clearly from a mile away.
But God knows, that was because she saw him regain his sight briefly and then become blind again and was depressed, so she exaggerated a little to comfort him!
Who would have thought that he would bring this up now!
"Princess, you don't mean to say that that statement can't be taken seriously, do you?"
Xiao Changheng spoke in a low voice, as if he had the ability to read minds.
"But I agreed to make a deal with you because I believed in every word you said, especially this sentence. I have been looking forward to it for a long time."
"If the princess was just joking, she should have made it clear at the beginning. Otherwise, the deal might not have been done."
Yun Qingqing: “…”
Believed his lies.
But she couldn't refute it.
After all, the words did come from his mouth, and it would have been fine if both parties had tacitly agreed that it was a joke, but if he insisted and believed it seriously, and if she forcibly denied it, it would definitely affect her Taoism.
Someone stared at her expression and smiled innocently:
"If the princess can fulfill her original promise, I will naturally sign this divorce agreement."
“…You are amazing!”
Yun Qingqing gritted her teeth and spat out a few words, glared at Xiao Changheng fiercely, strode to the door, pushed it open with a bang, and left without looking back.
Nan Zheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, threw away the box, swatted away mosquitoes, scratched his face and hands, and looked at the prince with some concern:
"…Prince, the princess seems really angry this time. Is this really okay?"
This was the first time he saw the princess so angry with the prince since she entered the palace.
The smile on Xiao Changheng's face disappeared. He looked in the direction where Yun Qingqing left, with a hint of reluctance and melancholy in his turbulent dark eyes.
After a long while, he closed his eyes and said in a hoarse voice:
"Let her be."
In the end, he would give her everything she wanted except divorce.
…
Xiao Changheng went to look for Yun Qingqing the next day, but didn't see her.
She did not leave the palace, but no one could enter her yard.
There was an inconspicuous barrier outside the yard, like a transparent wall, tightly surrounding the entire yard.
Xiao Changheng himself failed to get in, so he asked his servants to try, but none of them could successfully enter the yard, even Qiao'er was turned away.
Xiao Changheng was used to seeing her being calm and composed and never losing her composure, but he had never seen her lose her temper.
Although I felt a little guilty about what I did the day before, I also had a strange feeling in my heart.
I didn't expect that she had such a side, actually a bit childish.
He smiled helplessly, ordered the servants to prepare meals on time to ensure that she would not go hungry whenever she came out, and then went to busy herself with the affairs of the post-mission.
However, Yun Qingqing locked herself in the yard and did not come out for three days and three nights.
Xiao Changheng was busy for two days, and on the third day he finally couldn't hold back anymore. He dropped all the things he was doing and stood guard at the door of her courtyard. He also sent people to the mountain temple to invite Zhiluo.
Zhiluo didn't come, she just sent him a message saying that Yun Qingqing was fine and told him not to worry.
Xiao Changheng felt a little relieved, but he was still worried and could only continue to guard.
On the evening of the third day, the barrier outside the courtyard finally disappeared, and Xiao Changheng rushed in immediately.
He had just rushed to the door when it opened, and he almost bumped into Yun Qingqing who was coming out.
Xiao Changheng looked at her and opened his mouth, not knowing how to start.
Yun Qingqing withdrew her gaze, lowered her eyes and walked directly past him.
Seeing that her expression was as calm as usual and there was nothing unusual in her complexion, Xiao Changheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He turned his head and looked at her back and said:
"...I asked the kitchen to prepare your favorite soup, so don't starve yourself."
I hope you're okay.
He kept these words in his heart.
Yun Qingqing paused for a moment, but left the yard without saying a word.
Seeing that Xiao Changheng didn't follow her, she let out a breath slowly and went to the next yard to find Situ Qinglan.
“Qingqing!”
Situ Qinglan rushed over like a gust of wind, took her hand and said:
"You're finally out! You've been locking yourself in the yard these days. Is there anything wrong? Is there anything I can help you with?"
Seeing the little girl's concerned look, Yun Qingqing couldn't help but smile and handed her a piece of emerald green jade:
"Take this and remember to wear it close to your body."
Situ Qinglan's almond-shaped eyes widened slightly, and she said in sudden realization:
"You said last time that you would make me an amulet. Is that what you have been busy with these days?"
Seeing Yun Qingqing nod, she happily took the jade and looked at it lovingly:
"Qingqing, you are so nice! I will definitely wear it well and never take it off!"
She excitedly hooked her arms around Yun Qingqing's neck, leaned her head on her shoulder, and smiled as if flowers were blooming on her face.
Yun Qingqing looked at her smile, and the gloom in her heart caused by the appearance of Tiangong Yansheng dissipated a little. She rubbed the little girl's hair on her forehead with gentle eyes.
"That's right, since you gave me a gift, I want to give you something too!"
Situ Qinglan carefully took off a glass longevity lock from her neck and put it into Yun Qingqing's hand.
"This was made for me by my father when I was born. Although it is definitely not as precious as the amulet you made, it is also the thing I treasure most. I give it to you!"
Yun Qingqing's eyes moved slightly:
"You have been wearing this longevity lock since you were a child. Do you really want to give it to me? If your father knew about it..."
Situ Qinglan rushed to say:
"If you hadn't saved me, I would have died. What's the point of having this longevity lock? If my father knew that I gave it to you, he would definitely say the same thing!"
"Okay, I'll take it."
Yun Qingqing smiled and didn't refuse.
She thought about it and said seriously:
"In fact, you gave me the personal belongings you have worn for so long, which are also very precious to me. Qinglan, thank you."
Items with special meanings not only have abundant wishes attached to them, but their “quality” is also different from ordinary wishes.
These wishes cannot be directly refined into spiritual power, but they are excellent materials for body refining. Something like this, which has been worn for more than ten years since birth, is an excellent item among them.
Yun Qingqing knew that Situ Qinglan was afraid that she would dislike her ordinary gift, so she made it clear to reassure her.
Situ Qinglan was stunned after listening to her words. Suddenly, she felt her face getting hot and her heart was pounding as if a rabbit had been kicked.
She coughed to cover up her panic, scratched the back of her head and said:
"Um... have you had dinner yet? Are you hungry? If not, how about we eat together?"
"Okay." Yun Qingqing didn't think much about it. She had consumed a lot of spiritual energy in the past three days and was already hungry, so she agreed immediately.
After dinner, she said she had some other things to deal with, so they both went back to their rooms.
Yun Qingqing drank a cup of tea and took a short rest, then set up a barrier in the yard again and took out a bamboo umbrella from the space.
Her fingertips glowed with inspiration, and she drew an intricate formation on the table and placed the bamboo umbrella inside.
The eight talismans sealed on the umbrella opened themselves one by one and fell to the side.
At the moment when the last talisman was revealed, the bamboo umbrella that had been lying quietly on the table suddenly stood up and opened with a "swish".
Along with thick black smoke, a sharp and sinister whistle spread throughout the house!
