The secret guard replied, "Our people couldn't find anything wrong. We just learned from the clues we found that after she jumped off the cliff, she came back as a completely different person."
"A changed person?"
Qin Yong murmured something, then narrowed his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a long while, he finally said, "Keep a close eye on this woman and try every possible way to win her over. If she's sensible, treat her like a distinguished guest. If she's not...find a time to get rid of her!"
"yes!"
…
Ever since Duan Qingxi cured the queen, the emperor has valued her more and more, and sent all kinds of good things to the general's mansion.
Now, the entire court and even the entire Shengyuan Kingdom knew that the emperor was very fond of this first-rank princess.
There are even rumors that if Duan Qingxi had not been married to the Fifth Prince Helian Yun a long time ago, this princess would have entered the palace as a noble concubine!
Duan Qingxi didn't take these rumors seriously.
Naturally, no one would know that not long after the rumors spread, the people who spread them disappeared from this world.
…
That day, Duan Qingxi was about to go out when she met Helian Yun who came to look for her.
Duan Qingxi found herself becoming increasingly impatient with this man, especially when she noticed that his smile now looked particularly fake, completely different from before.
The previous Helian Yun was just a bit of a scumbag, but ignoring that, he was still good in other aspects.
But Duan Qingxi discovered that he was not only a scumbag, but also a greasy scumbag. There was a feeling that... he was about to become a villain!
Helian Yun naturally didn't notice the disdain and suspicion in Duan Qingxi's eyes. After seeing her come out with her maid, he stepped forward and said, "Xi'er, are you going out?"
"Oh, what's wrong?"
Helian Yun glanced at her carriage and then said, "I haven't had dinner with you for a long time. How about we go to a teahouse together?"
Duan Qingxi opened his mouth and wanted to refuse, but unexpectedly the ring lit up again.
She frowned slightly, not understanding why...she always felt like she was being tricked.
But since the ring was lit, she could only agree: "Okay..."
After getting on the carriage, Helian Yun kept his eyes on her.
It seemed like he was deeply in love, but in fact, Duan Qingxi could only feel disgusted.
So fake!
When they arrived at the teahouse, they went straight to the second floor and ordered some food.
Duan Qingxi observed for a long time, but the ring never flashed again.
I was wondering what was going on.
Seeing her staring at her fingers, Helian Yun picked up a chicken leg and put it in her bowl. He curled his lips and smiled faintly, "I heard that you like to eat this the most in the mansion. Come, try it. Although the food here is not as good as the one in the general's mansion, it tastes very good."
Duan Qingxi had no interest in eating the chicken legs and was picking at the rice out of boredom.
After a while, she looked up at Helian Yun and said, "You...you really don't know what a fox is?"
Helian Yun was stunned for a moment, then looked at her in confusion and asked, "What fox? Do you like foxes?"
Duan Qingxi laughed dryly, "Haha, not bad..."
She couldn't find out anything from Helian Yun's condition, but so much time had passed and she didn't even know the whereabouts of that stinky fox. It was so frustrating!
Perhaps seeing that she had no interest in eating, Helian Yun quickly put down his bowl and chopsticks.
He looked at Duan Qingxi and asked, "Xi'er, are you really willing to marry me?"
