——
After breakfast, Yan Shiyao stood at the gate of the mansion waiting for Qi Qingchen to return home after court.
At 15:00 on the 9th hour, the carriage slowly stopped in front of the mansion gate. Wu An lifted the cotton curtain. Qi Qingchen raised his eyes and saw Yan Shiyao kicking the ground out of boredom. He got off the carriage. Yan Shiyao saw him and trotted over.
"Qi Qingchen, shall we go?" She said in a sweet voice.
The man raised his eyebrows slightly, "Do you think I came back to pick you up on purpose?"
Yan Shiyao bit her lip and said, "Then...then, when are we going?"
Didn’t Xiaochun say that after Qi Qingchen left the court, he would take her to the Imperial Prison?
"Royal brother, why is Miss Yan in your house?" Princess Zhiyuan glanced at Yan Shiyao with disdain.
She naturally knew that Yan Shiyao was at her brother's house. Sister-in-law Jiang Jin had sent her a message, and she also came to help Sister-in-law Jiang Jin teach Yan Shiyao a lesson.
When her mother was sick, it was Sister Jiang Jin who took care of her mother. How could she allow Sister Jiang Jin to be bullied by Yan Shiyao?
"Oh." Qi Qingchen stared at Yan Shiyao with a smile on his face. "Miss Yan volunteered to be my maid, how could I refuse?"
Yan Shiyao lowered her eyes, trying to hold back her tears, swallowing her grievances, and bowed respectfully, "Shiyao greets Her Royal Highness the Princess."
The girl's voice trembled slightly. Qi Qingchen looked at Yan Shiyao who was squatting on the ground with a complicated look. She...
It is indeed as she said yesterday, quite pitiful...
Ultimately, it was Xuan Yanyu who implicated him. The reason why my father put the prime minister and his wife in prison was also because of Xuan Zhao and Xuan Yanyu.
If Xuan Yanyu had not lived in the Prime Minister's Mansion for more than a year and Prince Xuan had not detained him in Xuan Zhao, something would not have happened to their family so soon.
Who asked her to pick up Xuan Yanyu and bring him back home?
My father had no plans to move the Prime Minister's Mansion in the past few years. If he wanted to move, he would have to wait until the Crown Prince was established. However, because of Xuan Zhao and Xuan Yanyu, he did it ahead of time.
Somehow her status as a princess was abolished by Prince Xuan. If she had been smarter, she could have waited. Her father had no intention of having a falling out with Xuan Zhao.
Prince Xuan and Xuan Yanyu couldn't possibly be unaware of this, so Madam Prime Minister, father will release him sooner or later.
She was the only one who foolishly ran to his house out of grievance for the Prime Minister's wife. If she could think clearly, she would still be the noble Princess Xuanzhao.
It was too late to say anything now. She had made a mistake from the moment she came to the mansion. She had fallen into a trap that even he could not control...
She is really stupid. After all, the Prime Minister's wife is the mother of Crown Princess Xuanzhao. She can just wait. How could my father lock the Prime Minister's wife up in the imperial prison?
No matter how my father deals with the prime minister and his wife, he will spare their lives. After all, he has to give face to Xuan Zhao.
If Xuan Zhao's Crown Princess had no connection with the Prime Minister's Mansion, she should be worried. Her father might really...
"Ah..." Yan Shiyao's cry of pain startled Qi Qingchen's thoughts.
Yan Shiyao half-knelt to salute, but Princess Zhiyuan seemed not to hear her. She fiddled with the snacks and looked down at Yan Shiyao.
Yan Shiyao's legs were already sore, and she squatted until her legs became numb and she fell to the ground without being able to support herself.
Princess Zhiyuan rolled her eyes and pretended.
"Get up." Qi Qingchen got off the carriage and extended his hand to Yan Shiyao.
Yan Shiyao placed her hand on the man’s palm, and the next second, she was pulled up. She leaned unsteadily into Qi Qingchen’s arms.
"Royal brother, our father has revoked the order on your marriage with Miss Yan. You shouldn't do this again." Qi Zhiyuan became angry when he saw Qi Qingchen hugging Yan Shiyao.
What is Yan Shiyao's current status? Doesn't my brother know?
Yan Shiyao clutched Qi Qingchen's clothes tightly in panic, for she was afraid that Qi Qingchen would push her away.
"Are you scared now, Zhiyu? Wasn't you very powerful when you were in Xuanzhao?" Qi Qingchen said something that pierced her heart, "I think of it now and I am very unhappy. So, I don't plan to take you to the Imperial Prison to see the Prime Minister's wife today."
Yan Shiyao opened her lips slightly for a long time, and said in a trembling voice, "Then...then what should Shiyao do to make you happier?"
