Chapter 126 This Empress Needs a Woman



As soon as Yu Qingyi finished speaking, he clearly felt the Crown Prince's expression grow even colder.

"What's wrong?" Yu Qingyi's voice trembled.

Is he wrong?

Why is the Crown Prince so terrifying right now?

"Smack."

The table in front of him was shattered by the prince's anger, but the packet of herbs lay unharmed in his hand.

Yu Qingyi...

"Hmm, it's nothing, you can go now." After a long while, the Crown Prince suddenly turned around, his expression calm, as if all the anger from before had never existed, and walked slowly towards the soft couch.

Yu Qingyi stood there, stunned and completely bewildered.

What exactly happened that he didn't know about?

Could it be because of the spicy hot pot?

"I've inquired, and Tianxia Yiwei is indeed opened by that kid Bai Yu. You must know Bai Yu, right? He's the only legitimate son of the once-prosperous Bai family. You met him today. If you want to eat maocai (a type of Sichuan hot pot), I'll find a way to have him send it over."

Yu Qingyi thought that the Crown Prince might be unhappy because he didn't enjoy his maocai properly due to the disturbance caused by the Prefect of the Capital.

After all, such fresh, fragrant, and tender food...

but……

"Yu Qingyi, if you don't leave, I'll make you a groom tomorrow."

The crown prince did not turn around, and his voice remained as low as usual, but...

Yu Qingyi immediately rushed out of the room as if someone was chasing her, and even closed the door for the Crown Prince.

Unable to figure it out, he brought up Tingyu.

“Tingyu, what’s wrong with your prince? I’ve known him for so many years, and apart from… I really have never seen him get angry.”

Yu Qingyi said that this matter shocked him greatly.

He stammered, having obviously heard what was being said inside the house.

As a woman, even though she had a life that was different from that of ordinary women since childhood, she was still sensitive. After thinking for a while, she told Yu Qingyi all about the scenes of Xie Lingqin helping the Crown Prince back.

Upon hearing this, Yu Qingyi pondered for a long time, then let out a long sigh and looked at Tingyu, "Just now, Xie Lingqin asked me to tell the Crown Prince that acting is too tiring and that he's worked hard..."

"So, the Crown Prince deliberately pretended to be weak in front of Miss Lingqin? Does the Crown Prince like Miss Lingqin?" Tingyu suddenly realized, and the doubt in her mind instantly cleared up.

Upon hearing this, Yu Qingyi immediately jumped back a few steps, pointed at Tingyu, and was more excited than anyone else, "You said this! I didn't know that."

After saying that, his face showed a bitter expression, "Then just now, I just now..."

The next moment, Yu Qingyi fled as if he were escaping.

If, as Tingyu said and thought, the Crown Prince is indeed interested in Xie Lingqin, then the fact that the Crown Prince didn't bury him alive is truly an act of immense loyalty.

Yu Qingyi was almost moved to tears.

In the shadows, I heard someone carrying a sword approaching. They glanced towards the main house, then looked at Tingyu. There was a kind of loneliness in their intelligence, a loneliness that no one could understand.

Could he say that he had already figured it out, and therefore had already driven the carriage back?

...

Xie Lingqin did not return to the General's Mansion. Instead, she changed into men's clothing and went to Tianxia Yiwei. Of course, she did not go in, but gestured to Zihe from a distance.

Zihe was dressed as a woman at this moment, whereas she had been dressed as a man when she went in with Xie Lingqin earlier. She understood and went to a dark place to meet Xie Lingqin.

"Where is Tingfeng? Where is the Crown Prince's carriage?" Xie Lingqin asked immediately.

Zihe hurriedly said, "This servant is also puzzled. The Crown Prince didn't even come out, yet he drove away in his carriage."

"Ha!" Xie Lingqin felt even more indignant upon hearing this.

They have a good relationship. If the guards hadn't known that the Crown Prince had left and was no longer part of the Worldly One, why would they have left?

In other words, while she had gone through great lengths to bring the Crown Prince back to his residence, he somehow managed to send orders to Tingfeng.

She really did something incredibly stupid today.

Every step was meticulously planned by the Crown Prince.

"But Miss, weren't you at Tianxia Yiwei? Why did you come from the other side?" Zihe couldn't help but ask curiously.

“Zihe…” Xie Lingqin raised her eyes slightly and asked in return, “Was your former master a skilled physician?”

"Medical skills, this..." Zihe thought for a moment and was not sure. "It is said that the Crown Prince studied medicine with Master Dong for a long time. Master Dong also said that the Crown Prince learned very well. However, in all these years, the Crown Prince has not treated anyone else, so... this servant is not very clear."

"Like this?" Xie Lingqin rested her chin on her hand, her eyes filled with complex emotions.

This guy knows medicine, so it's highly likely that when Bai Ling brought the two bowls of maocai to the table in the private room of Tianxia Yiwei, he discovered the laxative in the clear broth maocai faster than she did. Because he knew it wouldn't harm him, he...

Then, put on this show!

How hypocritical!

Seeing that Xie Lingqin's complexion was not good, Zihe thought for a moment and then said, "However, Miss, the Crown Prince... knows how to make medicine."

"Alchemy?"

"Yes." Zihe nodded. "The Crown Prince doesn't concoct medicine easily. Every time he does, he has to put in a lot of effort."

"Oh?" Xie Lingqin's eyes lit up a little.

"This servant is not too clear about this matter either, after all, this servant has not been involved in many such matters. However, the Crown Prince will be injured as a result," Zihe added.

Moreover, Tai's alchemy was only for...

Xie Lingqin's gaze grew even deeper.

Injured while making medicine?

Yes, that time, the Crown Prince was clearly injured, or perhaps poisoned, and he wanted her to cut himself with a knife so he could use her as an antidote.

She found it strange at the time; the Crown Prince was so powerful, who else could possibly hurt him?

"Then, who does the Crown Prince usually prepare this medicine for?"
