Xie Lingqin remained unmoved and chuckled, "You're slandering me."
“Miss Xie, you flatter me. I was just stating the facts, and I thought I'd also like to remind you that Crown Prince Yuwen values his younger brother Yuwen An so much that I don't need to elaborate. And Yuwen An doesn't like you, so this kind of relationship…”
Xie Lingqin looked at Lü Wu, her eyelids slightly lifted, "You care about me a lot?"
"fine."
After speaking, Lü Wu cupped her hands in a respectful gesture, "The exit is just ahead. There are people waiting outside the secret passage. Miss Xie can go out with peace of mind. Farewell."
Green Beauty was decisive and efficient; once she said goodbye, she left without hesitation.
Xie Lingqin looked at Lü Wu.
The woman was extremely thin; she was slender, but at least she had some curves in the right places.
This green-clad beauty is truly unique, and she's also very cold, cool, and somewhat strange.
He clearly cares about her a lot, but he insists on creating an impression that she should stay away.
"hehe!"
Xie Lingqin composed herself, chuckled softly, activated the mechanism, and exited the tunnel.
There were indeed people waiting outside, probably from the Heavenly Secrets Hall.
"Miss Xie, please take care."
Xie Lingqin looked at the bright sunshine in the sky, curled her lips into a smile, waved to the person behind her, said nothing more, and headed straight for the General's Mansion.
As they passed the city gate, they saw Li Qingyu and his men talking to the general guarding the gate.
You've arrived here so quickly, and you seem quite serious.
"Is Miss Li catching a bad guy?"
Xie Lingqin walked over slowly and asked softly.
Li Qingyu was feeling troubled when Xie Lingqin appeared. Composing herself, she adopted a solemn expression and said, "Yes, after all, before Miss Xie fainted, she pointed outside the courtyard and said there were people. We didn't find anything then, but I'll search again now and make sure there are no stragglers. Miss Xie, don't you agree?"
"Miss Li, you're joking. How would I know about this? I'm injured right now, and I haven't even made a breakthrough in my own case yet."
"That's true. In a month, the Emperor will bestow a marriage upon Miss Xie, so Miss Xie will be even busier."
Li Qingyu, it must be said, has a very strong fighting ability. Every time, Xie Lingqin manages to hurt her so badly that she is heartbroken and physically aches.
However, each time she recovers perfectly, she can act as if nothing happened when she's with you.
No wonder he was appointed as the deputy commander of the Thunder Guard, responsible for the Emperor's safety.
Meeting Li Qingyu's cold gaze, Xie Lingqin smiled calmly, "Well, although I know that Miss Li is fond of the Crown Prince, the Crown Prince has no feelings for you. This is indeed a difficult matter."
"People's hearts may change tomorrow."
"That's right. If Miss Li can completely forget the Crown Prince, it would be a good thing, so that she won't have to shed tears in front of the mirror in the future and delay her own life."
Xie Lingqin smiled and nodded at Li Qingyu's expression as she tried her best to suppress her emotions, then turned and left.
"Senior sister, I'm going to kill her."
Behind Li Qingyu, Qi Rufeng made a move to step forward, but Li Qingyu grabbed him.
"No need, she can only be arrogant for a month at most."
"Your Majesty, are you really not going to bestow her upon the Crown Prince in marriage?"
"Hmph." Li Qingyu gave a soft hum and didn't say anything more.
Qi Rufeng didn't ask any more questions, but his heart was filled with complicated and gloomy emotions. He liked Li Qingyu, but he didn't want to make her sad.
However, the only thing that could make her happy was marrying the Crown Prince, but that would make him very sad.
...
The sound behind her, carried by the wind, reached Xie Lingqin's ears word for word.
He let out a soft sigh.
No one really thought she and Yuwen Yao were a good match, so Yuwen Yao had to put in a lot of effort to marry her.
It's been so long, I wonder if he's finished bathing yet.
Thinking of this, Xie Lingqin couldn't help but smile as she headed towards the Crown Prince's residence.
"Going straight to the Crown Prince's residence so late at night, aren't you ashamed?"
Halfway there, a figure jumped out and blocked Xie Lingqin's path.
She was wearing an apron.
It is white jade.
"Your outfit..."
"This happened before, have you heard about it? I came to see if your arm is broken."
"It's not broken, it's fine, look."
Xie Lingqin raised her head slightly and looked at another spot in the shadows. "Manager Nie, you're here too?"
"Wow, your skills have improved these past few days. You were able to hear the commotion even though you were hiding so well."
As Nie Zuier spoke, she emerged from the shadows.
Bai Yu's expression became complicated when she saw Nie Zuier appear and spin around; there seemed to be a hint of red at the base of her ears.
"You, how did you get here?"
"Manager Bai, you're really joking. This road is yours."
Bai Yu choked, quickly waving her hands, scratching her head, and chuckling awkwardly, "No, that's not what I meant..."
have to.
These two rarely get together; maybe they'll start a romance, hold hands, and even kiss. She won't be a third wheel.
"Don't worry, I can say that I have escaped unscathed today. Whatever plans the Emperor and the Holy Maiden had, they failed."
Xie Lingqin gestured for the two to relax, then made a move to leave. But then, remembering something, she turned back to look at Bai Yu. "The things I asked you to prepare will come in very handy. Check them again." With that, she swaggered away.
"Heartless." Nie Zuier scoffed, then with a flick of her wide sleeves, she gracefully made to leave. Bai Yu immediately followed, "I, I'll see you off."
"You can't beat me, can you?"
"We weren't all like that that day..."
