Chapter 416: It’s been a long time since I saw His Highness smile from the heart



Pei Shuiqing exclaimed, "Sir, what are you going to do?"

"Woo woo... Let me down now. I want to go home and bury my parents."

She sat shivering against the wall of the carriage, with her head down and not daring to make any big movements.

The groom started to drive the horses.

The eldest prince smiled softly, "Girl, don't be afraid."

"I just saw that you were thinly dressed and frightened, so I took you back to the palace to give you some compensation."

"By the way, what's your name? Where is your home? What caused your parents to die?"

He asked softly.

Everyone knows that he is kind and cares about the people of the world, but few people know that he secretly loves women as delicate as white flowers.

Especially, she is a woman with a clean family background and a rough life.

There is a sense of redemption.

"Sir, my name is Bai Qingqing, and my home is on Xiliufang Street."

"My family is poor, and my parents have no money to treat their illness. I wanted to sell myself to save their lives, but before I could sell myself, they died of illness."

"Wow, wow, wow...I'm sorry, my daughter."

Pei Shuiqing leaned against the car wall, sobbing, looking even more pure and fragile.

Tears slid down her pretty nose and dripped onto the eldest prince's hand.

The eldest prince felt as if his heart was burned.

"Miss Qingqing, please don't cry. If you have nowhere to go, you can come to my palace."

The eldest prince comforted her softly. He didn't know what was wrong with him. Although he had seen countless women, he actually felt a little sorry for this woman.

"I…I thank you for your kindness, sir."

Pei Shuiqing cried and fell asleep leaning against the wall of the carriage.

With a bump, the person tilted and fell into the arms of the eldest prince.

The eldest prince only felt the soft fragrance in his arms. He closed his eyes and inhaled Pei Shuiqing's hair, and a faint fragrance filled his nose.

After arriving at the eldest prince's mansion, the eldest prince carried the person downstairs.

The concubines who had been waiting for a long time were immediately envious and jealous when they saw the eldest prince coming back with a woman in his arms.

"Your Highness, this girl looks unfamiliar. Who is she from?"

On weekdays, the most favored concubine Hong would come up to greet him with her slender waist twisting.

There is a little teardrop mole at the end of the eye, which is really pure and charming.

Behind Aunt Hong, there were twenty or thirty concubines with pure looks standing.

The eldest prince held the person in his arms and said, "Stop asking questions. Qingqing will be mine from now on."

Then ask the housekeeper to clean a new yard.

He took Pei Shuiqing to his dormitory first.

Only a group of concubines were left in the front hall, all of them gnashing their teeth and staring at Pei Shuiqing's back.

A newcomer, why?

They try to please the prince every day, and seven or eight of them squeeze into one courtyard. New arrivals get a new courtyard. Why?

"Sister Hong, what should we do?"

"It doesn't matter if we sisters fall out of favor, but what if you fall out of favor?"

"This newcomer Qingqing, isn't this a slap in your face?"

Concubine Hong's handkerchief friend and Concubine Jiao said angrily.

"What are you afraid of?"

"Your Highness has had enough fun with it, so I'll throw it into another yard. Wait."

Aunt Hong snorted coldly.

Although she said this, she was very angry in her heart and left with her waist twisted.

The concubines in the hall looked at each other and hurried back together.

In the sleeping room.

The eldest prince placed Pei Shuiqing on his couch.

With a movement, Pei Shui woke up.

"Huh? Where is this?"

"My Lord, Qingqing wants to go home to bury her parents, wuwu..."

Pei Shuiqing opened his crescent eyes, was surprised at first, then suddenly thought of something terrible, covered his chest and stepped back.

The eldest prince had a gentle expression. He was already handsome and used to seeing kind faces. He smiled and said, "Miss Qingqing, don't be afraid. I am not a bad person."

"You are wearing thin clothes and you are injured. Please stay here for two days."

"I will have my servants take care of your parents' funeral."

"By the way, I am the eldest prince Qi Yanzhao. This is my residence. Have you heard of it?"

The eldest prince lowered his head and asked Pei Shuiqing.

For some reason, he particularly wanted to know the answer.

Pei Shuiqing looked confused, her eyes wide open, "I, a humble woman, pay my respects to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

She hurriedly got off the bed and knelt at the eldest prince's feet.

The eldest prince supported her and whispered in her ear with a smile, "Get up, Miss Qingqing."

"Miss Qingqing hasn't answered my question yet. Are you willing to stay here for two days?"

Pei Shuiqing blushed. No man had ever come so close to her before, so she quickly stepped back.

Meng Dong said, "Your Highness, I have heard that... I want to go home and bury my parents."

After receiving this answer, the eldest prince nodded.

"Then stay here for one night. I will send someone to take you back tomorrow morning."

"After your parents are buried, Miss Qingqing, please come to my place. I am still in need of a water-serving maid."

"I can give you ten taels of silver every month."

The eldest prince sat down and said.

Pei Shuiqing was surprised, his eyes widened with light flashing, "Your Highness, is it true?"

"Do you really want me to be your maid?"

She was sad one moment and as happy as a civet cat that caught a fish the next, which really made the eldest prince laugh.

"real."

The eldest prince nodded and looked out the window.

At this time.

The housekeeper came over and knocked on the door gently before entering. "Your Highness, this young lady's yard has been cleaned."

"Then have someone take Miss Qingqing over to stay there."

The eldest prince raised his finger.

The housekeeper called the maid behind him and said, "Yinping, take the girl to the courtyard."

"Remember, serve me well."

Yinping nodded, and Pei Shuiqing thanked the eldest prince again and again, then followed Yinping.

Along the way, he looked left and right happily, like a clever civet cat.

The eldest prince laughed when he saw it.

The butler was behind him, smiling and saying, "It's been a long time since I've seen Your Highness smile from the heart."

The last time I laughed from the heart seemed to be when I was born.

The eldest prince turned around and immediately regained his indifference. "Is there any news from the Dugu Kingdom?"

"The people I sent to Dugu Country all disappeared without a trace. They must have been discovered."

"The princess of Dugu Kingdom is truly a character."

The eldest prince's face was as cold as stone. He had lost his kindness towards women and became cold, hard and dangerous.

The butler hurriedly said, "Your Highness, please don't worry."

"I have sent new people over, and they will definitely not be discovered this time."

"The Dugu Kingdom is a special country. It will take some time to infiltrate it."

He wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"snort!"

"Do you think I'm supporting you guys for free?"

The eldest prince struck the butler with his palm, and the butler flew backwards and hit the tree with a bang.

Fortunately, the butler was in good health and was not seriously injured. He jumped up and knelt down quickly.

"Send some tall women. Men swaggering through the streets will easily expose their identities."

"If you can't get any more information, bring me your head."

The eldest prince snorted coldly, becoming increasingly dissatisfied with Dugu Guo. He didn't understand how he discovered his relationship with Dugu Shuangyan?
