Chapter 304 I Love Myself Most
The carriage slowly stopped in front of the gate of Prince Jing's Palace. Qiao Wanyan had been here before and was very familiar with this place, but it was the Ninth Prince's Palace before, not Prince Jing's Palace.
Two teams of Northern Yamen Imperial Guards wearing silver armor entered Prince Jing's Mansion with steady and powerful steps. Yesterday, the Prince's Mansion was surrounded by the Southern Yamen Imperial Guards, and today, Prince Jing's Mansion was surrounded by the Northern Yamen Imperial Guards.
Passersby who saw this did not dare to stop or look and quickly left.
The gate of Prince Jing's mansion was closed tightly. After the imperial guards knocked on the door, the gate slowly opened.
The attendant of Prince Jing's Palace was a little surprised at the scene in front of him, "May I ask why the imperial guards surrounded Prince Jing's Palace?"
"Follow His Majesty's order to search Prince Jing's mansion. Open the gates and all outsiders must leave!"
The commander of the imperial guards spoke in a very loud voice, but the servants in the palace did not seem to be frightened or even give way in shame.
He just accurately captured the figure of his own prince, and after receiving the signal, he turned sideways and asked someone to open the door.
The imperial guards entered the palace one after another with clear division of labor. Some were responsible for controlling everyone in the front hall to prevent anyone from secretly doing something or destroying something, while others began a well-trained search of the palace.
Qiao Wanyan looked through the carriage window at Prince Jing's Mansion and saw no sign of anyone getting out of the car. It looked like it would take a long time to be over, and Brother Yanli would not be available to go to Mingyue Tower with her for a while.
He Yanli turned his head and said, "Prince, are you not going in? Although the imperial guards are searching the mansion, please come in and have a cup of tea, please?"
He Zhiyu retracted his gaze from the carriage, his smile remained unchanged but the sinister look on his face became more visible, "Okay."
He Yanli felt in a good mood when he saw him forcing himself to smile. "It's just that everyone in my palace has been detained in the front hall and there's no one to serve tea. If my brother doesn't mind, why don't we let Qiao Wanyan pour tea for us? She's good at making tea, and my brother can try it. After all, I'm afraid there won't be a chance in the future."
Of course he knew that He Yanli was responding sharply and deliberately trying to make things difficult for him.
"Wanyan is a noble lady, the second daughter of the Qiao family. Don't you think it's rude of you to order her around like this? What women hate most is people who are overbearing and bossy."
He Yanli disagreed: "You should be cautious when dealing with people who don't like you, but for a woman who loves me wholeheartedly, she will think that whatever I ask her to do is the happiest thing in the world."
At this moment, He Zhiyu felt that his ostentatious and arrogant face was extremely disgusting. He had never wanted to kill He Yanli as much as he did at this moment. He wanted to cut out his tongue and gouge out his eyes.
He Yanli liked it most when others disliked him, especially the prince's forced smile at this moment.
"Qiao Wanyan, why don't you get off the carriage and come to me..."
As He Yanli spoke, he turned to look at the carriage, only to find that the carriage that was supposed to be parked there had disappeared at some point.
He turned around and looked around, and saw a carriage turning at the intersection of the long street ahead.
He Zhiyu sneered, but didn't say much.
But it is this sneer that is the most heartbreaking.
Mo Xiao stepped forward and whispered, "Your Highness, Miss Qiao said that it might take a long time for you to be free, so she will hold a welcoming banquet for you another day. It's too noisy here, and she finds it annoying..."
He Yanli was so angry that he laughed.
Sure enough, even after being poisoned by the love poison, she still couldn't change her spoiled habits.
Even if she is infected with love poison and falls in love with me, she still likes herself the most. Love poison is useless!
This moment was enough to prove how much she loved herself.
Inside Huibao Tower, the shopkeeper saw Qiao Wanyan and immediately said with a wry smile, "Miss Qian, please take your time. We have received many new goodies today. I have something to do, so I have to excuse myself first."
Qian Miaoyun looked at the hairpin in her hand without even raising her eyelids, "Go ahead."
The shopkeeper smiled and immediately walked towards Qiao Wanyan, "The second young lady is here. She hasn't been here for a long time, but I have saved a few treasures that I have recently received for her. Would you like to take a look?"
When Qian Miaoyun heard the flattering tone, she couldn't help but look back, only to see that it was the shopkeeper who had left her to flatter Qiao Wanyan.
She put down the hairpin in her hand and strode up to Qiao Wanyan who was about to go upstairs. She looked her up and down without any hesitation and then said sarcastically.
"I thought you were too embarrassed to go out, but I didn't expect you to be so shameless as to go out shopping."
Qiao Wanyan frowned slightly, "Manager Zhao, clear everyone out. I want to pick things out carefully today, don't let anyone bother me."
Shopkeeper Zhao was a little embarrassed, but he knew how much the second young lady of the Qiao family bought from him every year. She was a distinguished guest of their Huibao Tower.
In desperation, he had to ask the servant to ask all the guests to leave, except Qian Miaoyun.
The door of Huibao Tower was closed, and the next moment a slap was slapped towards Qian Miaoyun.
A clear voice made everyone stunned.
Qiao Wanyan raised her head slightly and looked at Qian Miaoyun, who was looking back at her in disbelief with her hands covering her face, with an expression full of disdain as if she was looking at something dirty.
She sighed softly, "Look at you, look at how surprised you are. Do you think I cleared out the guests because I really felt it was noisy? I was just trying to prevent someone from seeing me hitting you and ruining my good reputation."
"You!" Qian Miaoyun had never been beaten before. She covered her face and shouted angrily, "You dare to hit me? Aren't you afraid that I will tell Aunt Queen and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?!"
Qiao Wanyan covered her lips and chuckled, "I will naturally make sure the marks of your slap disappear before letting you go. Without any evidence, who can punish me just based on your words?"
Being scolded in public but not being able to pursue the matter due to the other person's identity? Wouldn't that make her unable to sleep tonight?
If you don't take revenge on the spot, you will still feel aggrieved even if you take revenge later.
Qian Miaoyun had deliberately embarrassed and humiliated her in public, so why should she be embarrassed to fight back?
"How dare you detain me?! Without any evidence? Except for you and your slave girl, everyone else here is my witness!"
Qiao Wanyan glanced at the shopkeeper and saw that he immediately stepped aside, lowered his head and said nothing.
He was even tactful enough to place a chair behind Qiao Wanyan.
Zi Yuan took out some silver from her pocket and threw it to him, and the servant immediately expressed his gratitude.
He knew that the Second Miss was generous, and as long as he could make the Second Miss happy, Enshang would have a good thing going!
Qian Miaoyun was so angry when she saw this scene, "Who do you think you are? You always wanted to marry the prince, but the prince only has Qiao Yihuan in his heart. Do you know where Qiao Yihuan is now?"
Qiao Wanyan was not interested, but in Qian Miaoyun's eyes, she was just pretending.
Qian Miaoyun said sarcastically, "Qiao Yihuan is now living in the East Palace to recuperate. The Imperial Hospital went in and out of the East Palace on the first day to treat Qiao Yihuan. I'm afraid it won't be long before the Crown Prince asks for an imperial decree to grant her marriage. What will you do then?"
