Seeing Xia Xuejian approaching her, Ye Qingwan hurriedly followed the plot.

"Hey there."

He let out a scream, then fell towards them in a particularly exaggerated manner, and deliberately hit his head on their chessboard.

This lady asked you to play chess, and you were bent four.

But what she never expected was that the chessboard suddenly "snapped" and broke into two pieces...

Ye Qingwan: ...

Liu Sheng: ...

Ninth Prince: ...

Xia Xuejian: ...

Damn it, you forgot that I carry the Golden Bell Cover with me!

what to do?!

Never mind, just pretend to be dead.

Then he slid down the chessboard to the ground, holding his forehead, looking very hurt.

"Brother Mu Yun, don't blame Sister Xue Jian. She didn't push me on purpose. It was because I didn't stand firmly and got in her way."

Xia Xuejian:? ?

"What nonsense are you talking about? I didn't touch you at all." Xia Xue was dumbfounded. Why did Ye Qingwan act like she was possessed by evil today? Wasn't she usually very aggressive?

As soon as she heard her take over, Ye Qingwan became excited, and gently pulled the corner of the Ninth Prince's clothes with her hands, tears in her eyes. But she forced herself not to let them fall, and said with grievance, pretending to be strong.

"Brother Mu Yun, I'm right. I didn't touch me at all. It was all my fault. I bumped into you. Please don't blame me."

Phew!

Liu Sheng couldn't help it and spat out a mouthful of tea.

"Sorry, don't bother me, just continue." Liu Sheng quickly waved his hand, asked them to continue, and asked the servants for another plate of peanuts.

"Ye Qingwan, you..." Xia Xuejian was overwhelmed by Ye Qingwan. In her impression, Ye Qingwan was a person who would never show weakness, but was domineering and unreasonable. How could she suddenly become like this?

Why does this pitiful, aggrieved and magnanimous posture seem so familiar?

Ye Qingwan wanted to laugh when she saw her confused look. Familiar, right? Isn't this your usual self?

It turns out that only magic can defeat magic.

"Sister, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have put my feet under your feet, and I shouldn't have put my body in your palm. It's all my fault, wuwuwu..."

Section 97

Xia Xuejian took a deep breath, unable to vent her anger.

I know she is pretending to be pitiful and magnanimous, but... I just can't do anything about her.

She admitted her fault in every word and very sincerely. So even if Xia Xuejian wanted to expose her, she had no way to do it. Because she kept emphasizing that it was her fault, there was no need to expose her.

If one must accuse her of pretending to be pitiful, it would make Xia Xue seem like she was punching cotton because she was narrow-minded and petty.

"Brother Muyun, please don't blame your sister, okay?" Seeing that Nangong Muyun, that big idiot, didn't say anything, Ye Qingwan had no choice but to continue acting.

Why don't you say something? You're making me so tired of howling.

The Ninth Prince couldn't stand her crying any more, so he said quickly, "Okay, okay, I don't blame her, I don't blame her, please don't cry."

Crying gives me a headache.

After saying that, he waved at Xia Xuejian and said, "Go quickly."

As soon as you come, Ye Qingwan, this acting queen, can't stop acting. I am almost going deaf.

Although Xia Xuejian was unwilling, she had no choice but to bite her lower lip and leave unwillingly.

Before leaving, he put down the golden wound medicine and said, "Then remember to use it, Your Majesty."

After saying that, he glared at Ye Qingwan who was still crying, then turned away angrily.

Ye Qingwan saw that her face turned green and she almost couldn't help laughing out loud. Xia Xuejian must be so angry that she must be dying. In the past, it was her role to act pitiful, but she didn't expect that I would snatch her role away today.

What do you call this? This is called taking someone else's path and leaving them with nowhere to go.

Seeing Xia Xuejian walk away angrily, the Ninth Prince said, "Everyone has left, why don't you get up?"

Just get up if you want to, why are you so fierce?

But it’s okay for him to be fierce, it just allows me to continue with the plot, so I started to wipe my tears again: “Brother Mu Yun, are you mad at me for driving Sister Xue Jian away?”

Ninth Prince: ...

Act, act, act. Isn’t it enough for you to act all day long?

Are you tired?

How about we take a break and eat some peanuts?

But Ye Qingwan obviously didn't do what he wanted, and continued to cry, "I'm sorry, I didn't know that Sister Xuejian would misunderstand me, it's all my fault, I won't come here again."

After saying that, he covered his face and ran out quickly.

The Ninth Prince was so angry that he jumped up and down. Ye Qingwan, you uncle, what do you think I am? Are you a tool for your acting? Or a pawn in your plot? Are you going to throw me away after I use you?!

Come back to me!

But there’s no way Ye Qingwan will come back. This episode has been perfectly wrapped up, and it’s time to go home and have a sleep after get off work.

As soon as she left the palace, she was beaming with joy. Just as she was about to get on the carriage and leave, she heard Liu Sheng calling her from behind: "Miss Ye."

She paused, but still went back and bowed obediently: "Greetings, Master."

"I send you."

This is an affirmative sentence, not a question, so... Ye Qingwan got on his carriage obediently. She was the one who was wronged by him first.

The last time the Seventh Princess's car was attacked, his hand was almost cut off. Not only did he let it go, he also covered for her in front of the Emperor.

The carriage kept moving forward slowly. No one spoke. The atmosphere was a bit depressing. Ye Qingwan could only bite the bullet and say, "Master, I'm sorry for what happened last time. I didn't know it was you in the carriage."

Liu Sheng smiled and said nothing.

Ye Qingwan: Uh... this is very embarrassing!

"I wasn't the one who killed the Seventh Princess." She explained again.

Liu Sheng still didn't respond. He lowered his head and looked around for something in his sleeves.

Ye Qingwan: ...

Brother, can you please say something? It's hard for me to do this.

If there is something you can't figure out, or if you still doubt me, then just speak it out, ask me. Are you trying to suffocate me by keeping silent like this?

Xiaoxi!

Just when she was getting anxious and wondering how to make him believe her, he suddenly pulled out his inner sleeve and wiped her forehead.

The sudden action frightened her so much that she froze up and dared not move.

"Since I can't find the handkerchief, I'll just have to make do with it for now." Liu Sheng said naturally.

I don't mean to be angry at all.

So...does he believe it or not?

"Master..."

Before she could finish, Liu Sheng interrupted her: "I know it wasn't you, but the Seventh Princess just passed away and the real murderer hasn't been caught yet. We still have to keep our distance and not let His Majesty get suspicious."

Ye Qingwan pulled his hand off and asked him tentatively: "Are you not angry?"

"Why should I be angry?" Liu Sheng said with a smile.

"The Seventh Princess is dead, so you can't be the Prince Consort anymore."

Liu Sheng wiped her forehead with a smile and combed her bangs back: "I don't want to be a royal consort either."

"Then you have no feelings for the Seventh Princess?" Ye Qingwan still didn't quite believe it, seeing as how you two had a very close relationship.

But Liu Sheng shook his head: "No."

Ye Qingwan looked at him sideways, and after a while, she leaned over and asked him, "Who do you have feelings for?"
