Chapter 145 I won’t admit it even if you kill me!
Lin Qingyue huddled in her quilt after waking up from her dream, feeling overwhelmed by shame: What a messed up dream! I am clearly an immortal and a modest gentleman, how could I have turned into a flower-stealing thief in my dream?
Suddenly, she threw back the quilt and looked warily at the two maids guarding the bedside: "Who asked you to be here?"
When she was resting, she didn't like others to stay by her side. No one except Ah Zhuo could get close to her.
I was so careless yesterday that I drank too much and ended up getting drunk like a mess.
The nanny said, "Your Highness, you were drunk last night. After His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent you back, he was worried and specifically asked this servant to wait on you by your bedside."
Lin Qingyue threw off the quilt and got out of bed, then asked, "I didn't do anything excessive when I was drunk last night, did I? Why do you have those expressions? Could it be..."
Could it be that I really... molested Dongfang Qi as I did in my dream?
"What exactly did I do?" Lin Qingyue's voice suddenly rose. "Tell the truth, don't hide anything. Don't forget who your master is!"
The nanny said, "I don't know what happened before I returned home, but after I returned home..."
"What happened next?"
"Then... you flew onto the rooftop, constantly shouting that you would lead us to conquer a kingdom. You also raved about wielding world power while awake, and sleeping on the lap of a beautiful woman while drunk..."
At this point, the two maids knelt down in unison. "The Crown Prince has forbidden any further disclosure. If it weren't for the Prince's interrogation, I wouldn't dare to say anything. From today on, I will forget all those words and won't dare to reveal a single word."
Lin Qingyue covered her face and sighed, "It's over, it's over. I've lost all my face!"
Anyway, no matter what, I won't admit it even if I'm beaten to death! It was someone else who was drunk, not her!
After washing up, Lin Qingyue changed into men's casual clothes so that she could go out with Dongfang Qi to do some business.
If it weren't for the appointment to rescue Hong Yao yesterday, Lin Qingyue didn't want to see Dongfang Qi again.
Judging from the time, the morning court in the palace is about to end.
I wonder if Dongfang will forget everything that happened yesterday after he wakes up from his sleep?
Anyway, no matter what, I won’t admit it even if you kill me!
As long as she doesn't admit it, it wasn't her who was drunk last night!
Just as Lin Qingyue was about to eat breakfast, the housekeeper Quanfu came over with a gift box and said, "Your Highness, the Prince of Jin sent someone to deliver something to you."
Lin Qingyue was a little confused. What did this mean? He was sending gifts even though they were divorced. Was he mentally ill?
She was about to order someone to refuse the gift when Butler Quan said, "Prince Jin said it was something you left at his mansion. He sent it here specially to return it to its original owner."
That’s right, because he heard that the things belonged to his master, so Butler Quan was willing to accept them.
"Did I leave anything behind?" Lin Qingyue waved her hand. "Let me see it."
The brocade box is not big and looks like a jewelry box. It feels light in the hand.
What could it be?
When Lin Qingyue opened the box, she saw that it contained a pair of women's underwear with a little blood stain on it.
She was so disgusted that she threw the thing away, and it almost hit Dongfang Qi who had just walked in.
Dongfang Qi lowered his head and saw the box rolling to his feet, and a pair of white underwear stained with blood fell out.
Lin Qingyue cursed inside: "Dongfang Yan is such a pervert! He's so disgusting so early in the morning that I can't even eat!"
Dongfang Qi walked into the hall and asked the housekeeper, "What's going on?"
The housekeeper Quan first bowed to Dongfang Qi, then replied, "Prince Jin sent someone to deliver something to my master early this morning, saying it was something he had left at the Prince Jin's mansion. I never imagined it would be... something like that..."
Lin Qingyue said, "That's not mine. I don't know what Dongfang Yan is thinking. Giving someone else's underwear as a gift? What kind of crazy mind could come up with that?"
Dongfang Qi asked Lin Qingyue, "Did anything special happen when you were discussing the divorce with him yesterday?"
Lin Qingyue said, "It's nothing special, right? He initially disagreed, so I threatened him with death. He was indeed afraid of death, and then he suggested signing the divorce papers after a drink. I suspected there was something fishy in the wine, and sure enough, it was drugged."
"But I didn't expose it. I just quietly replaced the wine. Then I took the divorce letter and left the Prince of Jin's Mansion. Afterwards, I went to Tianxiang Tower to have a drink with you guys."
Dongfang Qi looked back at the blood-stained underwear, and recalled the provocative words Dongfang Yan had said to him just now.
After connecting the past and the present, he suddenly realized: "So that's how it is."
Lin Qingyue also suddenly realized, "Those underwear are still stained with blood. Could it be that he was drugged and had sex with someone else... Then why did he send that filthy thing to me?"
Dongfang Qi waved his hand and dismissed his attendants, then told Lin Qingyue what had just happened between him and Dongfang Yan.
"Could it be that he thought I was the one he had sex with? So he treated that thing as mine and sent it to me as a reminder?"
At that moment, Lin Qingyue was so angry that she laughed.
"Is that idiot's head full of shit? He even came up to you and told you all that nonsense. Isn't that embarrassing?"
Of course Dongfang Qi would not tell Lin Qingyue that it was Dongfang Yan who was trying to alienate their relationship.
Although Dongfang Qi didn't believe it, he still felt a little excited now that he had figured everything out.
He knew that a woman like Yueyue could not possibly have any connection with Dongfang Yan.
"Alright, let's not talk about that bastard anymore—Butler Quan, from now on, refuse to accept anything sent from Prince Jin's Mansion—Dongfangqi, let's go."
Quanfu shouted from behind, "Prince, you didn't have breakfast!"
"I'm not eating anymore!"
When they got outside, Lin Qingyue got on the horse. Dongfang Qi handed her a bun wrapped in a banana leaf and said, "Eat something, or you won't have the energy to save people later."
Lin Qingyue's nausea had subsided. She ate her buns while praising them, "The chef at Lanyuan is really good. His buns are delicious. I heard you only stayed here occasionally before. How could you possibly deserve such a good chef?"
Dongfang Qi said, "This chef has been transferred from the Eastern Palace. By the way, you have now been granted the title of Prince. According to the prince's standards, the court will build a new residence for you. However, it will take some time. If you have any ideas, please feel free to share them."
Lin Qingyue said, "How can a newly built mansion compare to Lanyuan's location? I'll live in Lanyuan now, so there's no need to build anything else."
"Of course, the mansion I choose for you is naturally the best." Dongfang Qi raised his eyebrows and chuckled, with a little pride in his tone.
Lin Qingyue sat on the horse and bowed to him, "Thank you very much for your generous gift, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
"By the way, do you remember what happened last night when you were drunk?" When he asked this, his tone was a little cautious, but his eyes were fixed on Lin Qingyue without blinking, not daring to miss any expression on her face.
