Not only that, she also hated Duan Hong and Duan Sijin, thinking that they were targeting her, and if they hadn't refused to stand up for her, she wouldn't have fallen to this point!
She didn't dare to fall out with Helian Yun yet. After all, she and Helian Yun were in the same boat. She also didn't want to waste her time on Biyu and Yun Xinling. After all, she had never thought that Helian Yun would live with her alone. Without them, he would still have other women.
But she absolutely cannot let Duan Qingxi go!
Duan Shishi seemed to have calmed down. She knelt on the mat with her head down, not knowing what she was thinking about.
Duan Qingxi felt a strong sense of unease when she was in the Holy Dragon Temple. She knew that Duan Shishi would definitely try every means to deal with her and would retaliate to some extent. She was not afraid, but for some reason, she felt a little uneasy.
Carrying Xiaodai onto the carriage, Duan Qingxi asked, "Xiaodai, I've been to Kechaju quite often lately, but I haven't seen the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox. Where do you think he went? Is he trapped in that dream?"
Xiao Dai said: "I don't know, but its aura is still there, you still have to be careful."
Duan Qingxi nodded, and after the carriage stopped at the Ninth Prince's Mansion, she carried Xiaodai in her arms and went in.
Helian Sheng had not returned yet, so Duan Qingxi ate something and washed up.
Just as she was about to take a break, Qiao Yun suddenly came in with a letter, saying that it was given to her by Duan Sijin.
Duan Qingxi took a look and saw that it was indeed Duan Sijin's handwriting, and he even asked her to come out and see the lanterns.
As for watching the lanterns, Duan Sijin had told her before that there would be a lantern show outside tonight. Her brother had wanted to watch the lanterns with her for a few days. The main reason was that since he didn't come out to watch the lanterns with her, her father always wanted to find a woman for him to watch with.
Duan Sijin had no thoughts or ideas about getting married, and didn't want to quarrel with Duan Hong over it, so he always used Duan Qingxi as a shield.
Duan Qingxi had refused several times before, and also promised to accompany him to see it next time, so it was really difficult to refuse again this time.
She changed her clothes and was about to go out when Helian Sheng came back, and he was quite drunk.
As soon as he came in, he hugged Duan Qingxi and said, "Where are you going? You are not allowed to go..."
Duan Qingxi helped him into the room, threw him onto the bed, and said speechlessly, "Didn't you go to chat with the Third Prince? How did you become like this?"
After saying that, he took off the mask on his face.
Wow, this face is really something I can never get tired of looking at. It’s really tempting!
Helian Sheng seemed to have noticed her thoughts, chuckled softly, then pulled her down and turned over to hold her down.
Duan Qingxi pushed him away again and said, "I asked Su He to come in and wait on you. I promised my brother that I would go with him to see the lanterns. It's been so long and we still haven't gone. He must be angry."
Helian Sheng was even more reluctant to let go after hearing this, and muttered, "How can... a sister go to see the lanterns with her brother? You're not allowed to go..."
Duan Qingxi was so embarrassed by his behavior that she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Don't be jealous, he's my brother, my real brother..."
Helian Sheng continued in a muffled voice: "What's wrong with my brother? I also need to avoid suspicion..."
Then he added, "Don't you want...that girl named Chanxue to develop a relationship with your brother? Just let her go, you won't marry her..."
Duan Qingxi saw Helian Sheng was so drunk, with a frown on his face, and he didn't know how much he had drunk.
Or maybe it had nothing to do with being drunk, but the poison had taken effect, but he was forcing himself to endure it...
Duan Qingxi took his pulse and found that it was indeed not right. The more she looked at it, the more she didn't dare to leave him here alone. However, her brother was waiting outside, so why would she suddenly stand him up...
After Duan Qingxi let Helian Sheng lie down on the bed, he stood up and walked towards the door.
Chan Xue and Su He were guarding the door. Qiao Yun didn't see anyone. After she walked out, Su He hurried over and asked, "Princess, Prince...are you okay?"
Duan Qingxi said, "It's okay."
Then he looked at Chanxue and asked, "Where's Qiaoyun?"
Chan Xue said, "Go get some hot water for the prince, and get some food."
Duan Qingxi nodded, thought for a moment, then looked at Chanxue and asked, "Chanxue, can you do me a favor?"
Chanxue quickly said, "Princess, please feel free to tell me what you want. Chanxue will do her best to get it done!"
Duan Qingxi still couldn't get used to her talking to him like this, but she said, "I made an appointment with my brother to watch the lanterns, but Helian Sheng is not feeling well now, so it's not convenient for me to leave. He's been telling me about it for a long time. If I stand him up again, he'll be angry with me. Please go and see him for me, and come back directly after the show."
After a pause, she continued, "If you're worried, let Xuan Yi and Xuan Er go with you."
Chan Xue originally wanted to decline politely, but for some reason, she was particularly afraid of meeting Duan Sijin.
But after hearing what Duan Qingxi said, she felt that it was not very good for her to do so. After all, this was Duan Qingxi's order. Duan Qingxi had always been very good to her and had never told her anything alone.
It's just looking at the lanterns, no big deal. Maybe Duan Sijin won't want to look at them anymore after seeing that it's her.
She nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go tell the young master right away."
Duan Qingxi was also worried about her going out alone, so he said to Su He, "Just have Xuan Yi and Xuan Er follow her and make sure she gets there safely. There's no need to keep watching her. My brother will notice and he'll feel uncomfortable."
