"Zhong Yingying, come here."
The little fat girl peeked through the crack of the door. When she heard Pan Shu calling her, the flesh on her face swayed like water waves, and her delicate body trembled, "I'm going to die, you're shouting so loudly."
Pan Shu held her forehead and said, "Send him to the Princess's residence. I will go and ask the Queen Mother for him."
"You're acting without authorization." Zhong Yingying bit her lip nervously. "His Majesty won't let you go."
Pan Shu slowly curled her lips, her lazy eyes raised, and she snorted, "Why do you think the Queen Mother didn't start the punishment sooner, but waited until the day I was released from confinement? The Queen Mother must have known that I was deeply in love with Qi Yu."
Her voice was not loud, but Qi Yu and Ban Shu were only separated by a wall, so they could hear it clearly.
Qi Yu's eyebrows moved slightly.
The cold fingertips rubbed slowly.
This was his usual way of thinking.
Zhong Yingying covered her mouth and gave Pan Shu a thumbs-up slyly, "You're so smart! His Majesty loves you the most and treats you like a treasure. If you go and ask for someone, His Majesty will definitely agree!"
Ban Shu rubbed Zhong Yingying's soft face and said, "Let's go."
Qi Yu's back was as straight as a pine tree, and his indifferent, narrow peach blossom eyes passed over the girl's snow-white and delicate profile without a trace.
…
As soon as Ban Shu stepped into the palace, she saw Gu Chi and Ban Ruo walking towards her side by side.
Banruo was the eldest princess.
The two stood side by side. The women of Shengyuan Country were tall, and Banruo was the best.
She stood next to Gu Chi, and they were about the same height.
"Ashu."
Ban Ruo narrowed his eyes and pulled up the back of Pan Shu's collar, "What trouble have you gotten yourself into secretly again?"
Pan Shu smiled, her eyes slightly drooping, revealing a bit of nonchalance, and her voice was lazy and untuned, "I'll go and ask the Queen Mother for the person."
"who?"
"Qi Yu." Ban Shu looked at Ban Ruo with a pitiful look on her face. "My Royal Sister knows that I have been fond of Qi Yu for a long time. How could I bear to stand by and watch him suffer such a disaster?"
Ban Ruo sneered, "I think that vixen Qi Yu has seduced you to death!"
Banruo is more than a head taller than Banshu.
She looked down at the girl, her eyes filled with unclear emotions, "You want to take him as your lord?"
Pan Shu pursed her lips awkwardly, looking like someone who was madly in love with Qi Yu and couldn't bear to see him suffer any injustice. "My Lord...you are doing him too much injustice."
Ban Ruo's face became more and more expressionless, and this time he didn't even sneer.
"He's the son of a traitor, yet he still dreams of marrying someone he shouldn't. Your Majesty is flattering him." Ban Ruo's voice softened. "My Ah Shu is worthy of the most outstanding young man here. Ah Shu, can you wait for me a little longer?"
Ban Shu was slightly stunned.
She rubbed her ears and muttered, "But I want to save him."
Gu Chi, who was standing aside and watching the show with amusement, glanced at Ban Shu slowly, then looked at Ban Ruo, "The young prince has made up his mind, and it is useless for the eldest princess to say more."
He scoffed—
A playboy who only thinks about men.
"If the Queen Mother punishes you, tell me." Ban Ruo caressed the girl's soft hair lovingly, "I will protect you."
Ban Shu nodded, suppressed her shock and surprise, and said vaguely, "Then I will go to the Queen Mother's bedroom first."
Gu Chi looked at the girl's somewhat flustered back indifferently.
He curved his eyes with a smile, his voice clear but cold, "The eldest princess has overstepped the bounds."
Banruo lowered her eyes to hide the disappointment in them.
She warned, "Gu Qing, please don't interfere in matters that shouldn't be your business. It's good for both you and me. A month ago, at the court, you deliberately instigated the Queen Mother to punish Ah Shu, and His Highness has not yet settled the account with you."
After passing the Imperial Garden, the Hall of Mental Cultivation is behind it.
Pan Shu stood at the door for a while.
Finally, Qingyu came out and welcomed her in. "Your Highness has been standing here for a while. Why didn't you come in?"
"I'm afraid of disturbing the Queen Mother."
Qingyu covered her mouth and laughed, "Your Majesty knew you would come today."
The empress was a graceful and elegant woman. Pan Shu hadn't seen her carefully in the court a month ago. The empress's expression softened at this moment. She waved to Pan Shu and said, "Shu Shu, come and sit here with me."
In the original body's memory, the Queen did love her the most.
Because the original body was the child born to the Queen's favorite man.
But not long after the original body was born, the original body's father passed away due to frailty and illness.
Pan Shu lowered her eyes and sat down obediently in front of the empress, "Mother, please give Qi Yu to me. I really like him."
"Silly child, the Qi family's son was originally meant for you."
The Queen stroked Banshu's hair and said slowly, "Qi Guowei made a big mistake this time, which is just right. It's time to curb Qi Yu's arrogance. Who the hell is he? How dare he look down on my precious daughter?"
After hearing this, Pan Shu breathed a sigh of relief.
Not long after.
The rumor that Qi Yu was given to the seventh princess was spreading like wildfire.
"The Seventh Princess is a piece of rotten mud, and Master Qi is like a flower stuck in cow dung!"
"Well, if it weren't for that old bastard Qi Guowei's corruption, how could Master Qi have let the Seventh Princess get away with it?"
"The Seventh Princess is so annoying!"
The city is prosperous.
Even talking about the royal family is done without reservation.
Pan Shu lifted the gauze from the carriage window, held her chin with her hand and sighed, "How did my reputation become so bad?"
Qi Yu sat at the other end, his slender, jade-like knuckles grasping a white jade chess piece, and he slowly lowered it, "Your Highness doesn't seem like someone who would care about rumors."
Pan Shu glanced at him without saying anything.
Qi Yu has been indifferent to her these days, and Pan Shu also feels quite bored.
She looked at the man's delicate, cold, white wrist bone. "Everyone says you are my servant, but you know the truth. I won't touch you. If you meet a wife you like one day, don't worry about me."
Qi Yu paused.
There was a slight pain in my heart.
He paused for a few seconds, then lifted his thin eyelids. Complex emotions surged in his dark eyes. "Why?"
The girl said as a matter of course, "Because you don't love me."
"Because of you, I have become the laughing stock of the entire Holy Abyss."
The girl curled her lips in frustration.
That's not wrong.
Qi Yu opened his mouth to defend himself, but Pan Shu spoke first, "Do you remember the sachet I gave you? I made it myself, but the next day I found it on a piglet parading around. The cook said you threw it away, so he picked it up and put it on the pig."
"They laughed at me for a long time, Qi Yu."
“…”
There are many such things.
For example, the original body ran around just to buy the freshest rouge for Qi Yu.
But he just gave it to his servant.
I heard from his friends that Qi Yu was poisoned by a rare poison.
The original body desperately went to ask for the best medicine for Qi Yu, and his knees were swollen from kneeling. Later, he realized that this was just a game they played.
A game to tease her.
Qi Yu obviously remembered it too, and his expression turned a little ugly, "...I'm sorry."
Pan Shu shook her head slightly. "Qi Yu, look, among the friends who used to play with you, who is there now who would really help you when you are in trouble?"
Not one.
She pointed at herself. "It's just me. But you don't love me."
