Chapter 176: The Emperor is So Reasonable (Part 2)



She didn't know if it was her illusion, but now when she looked at Helian Yun seriously, she found that he had indeed changed a lot.

Is it because Zuo Xinya gave him too much stimulation that he became like this?

Unable to figure out what Helian Yun meant, Duan Qingxi said, "That won't do. Although you've only reported this to the Emperor and Empress alone, there's always something that can get through. I'm a clean-cut girl and I don't want to be accused of something that's not necessary."

After saying that, she left.

Helian Yun looked at Duan Qingxi's back, and his originally gentle expression slowly faded and became cold.

The personal guard walked up to him and whispered, "Your Highness, it seems Master Feishang is right. Miss Duan has really never thought of being sincere to you. She must have some purpose in staying with you."

The man narrowed his eyes fiercely, and clenched his hands at his sides into fists.

After a while, he said calmly, "So what? Relatively speaking, her value is much greater than mine."

What's more, he was indeed attracted to Duan Qingxi.

In this case, he would be willing to accompany her even if it was just for fun.

After leaving the Fifth Prince's Mansion, Duan Qingxi sat in the carriage, bent one leg and rested his elbow on it, supported his cheek with his palm, and sighed deeply.

I thought I could pretend to be with Helian Yun so that I could secretly find the whereabouts of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox. Unexpectedly, after being abandoned by Zuo Xinya, Helian Yun was stimulated and wanted to use her to ascend to the supreme position.

She now seriously suspected that the stinky fox had seduced Helian Yun in some way while she was away, forcing him to become more ambitious.

It’s a pity that she has no evidence.

The servant driving the carriage suddenly asked outside, "Miss, are we going back to the General's Mansion?"

Duan Qingxi came back to his senses, thought for a moment, and said, "Let's go to the Ninth Prince's Mansion."

I still have to get the space bracelet back first. I need to discuss this matter with Xiaodai.

After the carriage stopped in front of the Ninth Prince's Mansion, Duan Qingxi jumped off the carriage and walked into the Ninth Prince's Mansion with a swagger.

However, she didn't notice that someone was staring at her in a carriage not far away.

Maid Ping'er looked at Duan Qingxi in disbelief, exclaiming in amazement, "Oh my goodness, Miss, that girl...how could she walk right into the Ninth Prince's Mansion?! I heard that no woman can enter or leave the Ninth Prince's Mansion at will, and even the Queen has to be notified in advance when she comes!"

Qin Ruo clenched the handkerchief in her hand, and her face looked unhappy.

She was the daughter of the prime minister, but she was turned away even when she came in person to deliver something. But why was a woman of unknown origin allowed to come and go so freely?

Who is that woman?!

At this moment, Helian Cheng happened to be on his way to the Ninth Prince's Mansion. When he saw Qin Ruo's carriage parked there, he asked, "Why is Miss Qin here?"

Qin Ruo and Ping'er were also a little surprised to see Helian Cheng.

Ping'er took the initiative to answer respectfully, "In response to the Third Prince's question, our young lady just wanted to see the Ninth Prince about something, but... the guards outside the door refused to let us in, saying... that no women are allowed to enter or leave the Ninth Prince's Mansion at will."

Helian Cheng waved his folding fan and said with a smile: "Yes, my ninth brother's mansion has never welcomed any women. He doesn't even have many maids in his house."

Ping'er and Qin Ruo exchanged a glance, and after receiving her permission, they spoke nervously, "But just now... we clearly saw a woman walk in without a care in the world, and the guards didn't stop her or report it. Why is that?"

"Forehead……"

Helian Cheng guessed who the woman they were talking about was with just a simple guess.

Although Qin Ruo had gone to the Holy Dragon Temple to pray before, he did not go forward to join in the fun, so he naturally did not see Duan Qingxi's appearance clearly. He only knew his name but not the person.
