Chapter 143 Qianyuan Palace, I can't move once I see him
This man destroyed the body and the evidence right in front of her, it was so smooth.
Yuchi Lianping rolled the Helishu into a small ball, threw it into his mouth, and swallowed it directly.
He even said in a sly tone, "How about the princess kill me now and get the divorce letter out of her stomach?"
Yuchi Lianping sat up straight and leaned close to her and said, "Even though the princess couldn't do it, there is no such thing as a divorce letter."

This night.
Ji Qingwu was lying alone on the large carved agarwood bed, sleeping soundly.
She had no problem being attached to her bed, and she slept until noon, covered with a thin indigo brocade quilt.
When Xiao Dongzi was at the attic door, calling her to get up through the screen, she pulled the quilt over her face, confused and not knowing where she was.
The sense of smell wakes up earlier than the sense of sight.
Because the quilt was full of that person's scent, which assaulted her nostrils with a cold and refreshing fragrance.
Ji Qingwu had just woken up, his face flushed, and covered with such a warm quilt, it felt like he was being embraced by him to fall asleep.
This also shows that Emperor Wu Su should have often come to Handan Pavilion, and he recently stayed overnight here, so this should be the emperor's private place. However, when the emperor did not summon his concubines to sleep with him, why didn’t he stay in Zhaoyang Palace if he wanted to sleep alone, but instead came such a long way to sleep alone in the Handan Pavilion?
Two palace maids came in quietly to serve, and when Ji Qingwu finished cleaning up, Xiao Dongzi greeted her at the door.
Xiao Dongzi smiled and said, "Miss Ji, Chief Steward Li personally ordered me to escort you out of the palace. In case you don't know the way, just follow me."
Ji Qingwu didn't refuse and nodded.
Li Yuzong was quite attentive. She had been to Lotus Pond for a banquet last time, so she still remembered how to get out of the palace.
The sky outside was clear and the weather was fresh. A breeze blew, bringing the fragrance of lotus.
For the first time, Ji Qingwu was not nervous as he walked in the palace. He appreciated the surrounding scenery peacefully with a calm mind.
But as she walked, she realized something was wrong.
Ji Qingwu asked, "Eunuch Dong, is this road wrong? It doesn't seem to be the road to the palace gate?"
Xiao Dongzi was surprised and said, "That's right, Miss Ji, this is the way out of the palace."
Ji Qingwu looked around to make sure he was not mistaken: "But I remember that we didn't take this road last time."
Xiao Dongzi smiled confidently and said, "This is a small path. I have been in the palace for many years and I am very familiar with every place in the palace. I will not go wrong even if I close my eyes. This path is faster. Just trust me."
Not long after, the two arrived at the door of a palace.
The hall standing here has a gorgeous glazed tile roof that sparkles in the sunlight.
Xiao Dongzi's pace suddenly slowed down, and Ji Qingwu had just enough time to see the plaque of the palace clearly.
It is the Qianyuan Hall.
Ji Qingwu felt that the name of this palace sounded familiar, and he must have heard of it before.
Xiao Dongzi touched his head and said with sudden realization: "Ah, isn't this the Qianyuan Palace where Young Prince Yuan Heng lives?"
Ji Qingwu saw through such a clumsy performance at a glance.
She squinted at him and said, "Eunuch Dong, you just said a moment ago that you are very familiar with the palace and you would not go wrong even with your eyes closed. How come you don't even know where the Qianyuan Palace is?"
Xiao Dongzi said: "...I am only familiar with the road, but not very familiar with the palace."
He deliberately took her on a detour and even went to Qianyuan Palace where Yuan Heng lived.
No matter what the intention was, Ji Qingwu really couldn't move.
The sound of their conversation, which stopped at the gate, was heard by the people inside, and the heavy black and gold door of the palace was pushed open.
Ji Qingwu looked over, but did not see the little figure he had imagined, and a slight sense of disappointment flashed across his heart.
The person who came out was a eunuch, Xiao Shunzi, the eunuch who served Yuan Heng last time.
Xiao Shunzi also recognized that the woman in front of him was the daughter of the Ji family, and saw Xiao Dongzi, who served in the imperial court, following her.
His attitude was much more respectful than last time, and he asked, "This servant greets Miss Ji. Are you here to see His Highness?"
Ji Qingwu didn't care about Yuan Heng at first, but when she was led here, she couldn't suppress her longing for him. She really wanted to know if the little guy had grown taller and if there were any new changes in his body.
She asked, "Is your Highness here?"
Xiao Shunzi said, "Yes, it is, but at this time, His Highness is practicing swordplay."
Yuan Heng has to get up early every morning to practice martial arts at such a young age. Ji Qingwu and Jiujiuke both have the habit of staying in bed late. Will lack of sleep affect their physical development?
Thinking of this, she frowned.
Xiao Dongzi looked at her expression and thought of what Li Yuzong had told him.
He said beside him: "The emperor said that practicing martial arts in the morning can keep the righteousness inside and prevent evil from invading. Your Highness has been practicing for a year and is now strong and healthy. He has not been sick for more than a year."
Ji Qingwu nodded.
No wonder Yuan Heng didn’t have a fever after falling into the water last time. In such a long time, she had never heard of him being sick. In this regard, Emperor Wu Su could be said to have taken good care of him.
Xiao Shunzi led the two of them into the hall.
The palace servants were very well-behaved. Although they did not know her identity, they would come over to greet her when they met her. They would not look at her curiously and would continue with what they were doing.
Xiao Dongzi said, "Miss Ji, these palace servants were personally selected by the Emperor and ordered by Eunuch Li to serve the young prince. They are all reliable people with clean family backgrounds."
Ji Qingwu nodded.
From the calm and composed manner of these palace servants, it can be seen that they are stable and prudent people. Although Emperor Wu Su is strict with Yuan Heng, he will not be short-changing him in other areas.
"Your Highness, please slow down and be careful of the gravel road under your feet." The eunuch's sharp voice was heard from the corner.
Ji Qingwu turned around immediately and looked for the source of the sound.
Soon, a gem-blue little man came running over from a distance, holding a bronze sword inlaid with gems in his hand.
But when he was about to get closer, about three meters away from her, his steps slowed down. The little boy had a straight back and walked steadily, with the dignity of a prince.
There was still sweat on Yuan Heng's face, and he was still panting when he stood in front of Ji Qingwu, which showed that he was in a hurry to come here.
As soon as he heard the news from the palace servant that the fifth young lady of the Ji family was coming to Qianyuan Palace, he ran over directly, fearing that she would get tired of waiting and leave.
Ji Qingwu said with soft and bright eyes: "Greetings, Your Highness."
Yuan Heng made a fancy sword flower with the small bronze sword in his hand, inserted it into the scabbard and then inserted it diagonally into his belt, and then secretly watched her reaction.
Ji Qingwu looked at his movements and let out a small exclamation, his voice full of admiration and surprise.
Yuan Heng held his head high, with a look of indifference on his face.
Ji Qingwu squatted down and took out a handkerchief from his arms: "Your Highness, I'll wipe your sweat off, okay?"
Just as Xiao Shunzi was about to say something, Xiao Dongzi covered his mouth and dragged him aside.
