Ling Xiang: "Could it be that the prince still has the habit of sleeping in the boudoir, or that the maids in your house are treated so well?"
Xuanyuan Qi laughed: "Yes, that room was specially prepared by me for my woman."
Ling Xiang had an expression that said, "So, Your Majesty, don't mess with me."
Xuanyuan Qi shook his head: "That won't work. My future woman has finally moved into the room I prepared for her. Naturally, I have to work harder to bring my future woman home as soon as possible."
Ling Xiang was in a state of confusion, but Xuanyuan Qi was still looking at her with an expression that said, "It's you, it's you," which made her doubt and ask, "Your Highness, please don't tell me that no one has ever lived in that room before me."
Xuanyuan Qi leaned closer to Ling Xiang and whispered, "You guessed right! So, Ling Xiang, you thought I had a woman and were jealous?"
Ling Xiang's heart trembled suddenly, and he hurried forward: "I'm starving, let's eat first!"
Xuanyuan Qi was greatly pleased by the girl's attempt to hide her true self. He quickly followed her and reminded her, "Xiang'er, you're going in the wrong direction. The kitchen is over there."
Ling Xiang just wanted to get away from Xuanyuan Qi as soon as possible: "I'm going home to eat."
"That's fine. The food at the Zhenguo Marquis's Mansion is indeed better than mine. I'll go back with you."
Ling Xiang was speechless. She turned around and walked in the direction Xuanyuan Qi pointed. "I'm hungry. I'd better eat here."
During the meal, Ling Xiang adhered to the principle of not talking while eating and not talking while sleeping. She was fully focused and ate heartily. Even if Xuanyuan Qi tried to start a conversation, she would not respond at all.
Xuanyuan Qi didn't make things difficult for Ling Xiang. He ate quietly and served her food from time to time. Even though Ling Xiang didn't touch the food he picked up with her chopsticks, he still enjoyed it.
Seeing the plates piled up like a mountain in front of him, Ling Xiang put down his bowl and chopsticks, "Thank you, Your Highness, Prince Huai, for your hospitality. Farewell."
Xuanyuan Qi also put down his bowl and chopsticks and took out a crossbow: "Don't you want to see its power?"
Ling Xiang didn't even turn around: "I won't watch it anymore."
Xuanyuan Qi stood where he was, not worried at all about Ling Xiang leaving: "Don't you want the crossbow arrows anymore?"
Ling Xiang walked away quickly: "No."
"Then I will accept this token of love."
Ling Xiang stopped in her tracks, obviously not expecting that there would be such a shameless person in the world who would use the stolen things as a token of love!
"Give it back to me!" She rushed over, trying to get her crossbow back.
Xuanyuan Qi was very calm and let Ling Xiang take the crossbow arrows. Then he slowly took out another crossbow arrow: "No need to fight, there are plenty."
Ling Xiang was confused and looked at the crossbow in her hand. She keenly discovered that the one she snatched was not the one she had taken out before.
So, Xuanyuan Qi created the crossbow?
She examined the crossbow carefully. Although the changes were not very obvious, she could still tell that it had been improved. "Your Highness, have you asked someone to improve it? How powerful is it?"
"You'll know if you try it."
Xuanyuan Qi threw out a piece of golden iron, raised the crossbow in his hand, gathered his spiritual power, and pressed the trigger.
Four spiritual arrows shot out from different directions and finally hit the same piece of golden iron.
"Bang!"
With a loud bang, the golden iron, which was several levels stronger than deep-sea black iron, was shot through.
Ling Xiang was shocked. She waved her hand to pick up the fallen gold and iron, and tried to pull out the crossbow arrow stuck in it, but obviously, she failed to pull it out.
Xuanyuan Qi took the golden iron with a smile, and without much effort, he took down the four crossbow arrows on it.
"Try it?" Xuanyuan Qi suggested. Seeing Ling Xiang nod, he threw the golden iron out.
Ling Xiang took out a crossbow and fired two arrows at the same time. The two crossbow arrows flew out from different angles and hit the golden iron at the same time.
clang!
The crossbow arrow was bounced off by the gold and iron, making a harsh metal collision sound.
Ling Xiang recalled it. The arrowhead on the crossbow had been bent, but only two shallow scratches were left on the golden iron.
If it's not a difference in crossbows, then it can only be a difference in strength.
"My Lord, what is your level of cultivation?"
"Just like Aunt Yun."
Spirit Emperor?
Ling Xiang was surprised: "Doesn't that mean that your cultivation is higher than Nangong Yu's?"
If Xuanyuan Qi's cultivation is higher than Nangong Yu's, and the power in his hands is no less than Nangong Yu's, how did Xuanyuan Qi lose in the original book?
Seeing Ling Xiang subconsciously comparing him to Nangong Yu, Xuanyuan Qi felt sour in his heart: "Ling Xiang, you can't be so heartless. I've been so good to you, but you compare me to Nangong Yu? Is he as good to you as I am?"
Ling Xiang only thought of the original book where Xuanyuan Qi was defeated by Nangong Yu. She really had no other thoughts and immediately made her attitude clear: "Your Highness, you think too much. Anyone can treat me better than Nangong Yu."
"Then why are you comparing me with him? Am I that bad?" Xuanyuan Qi's eyes flashed dangerously as he approached step by step.
"No, I only know you two princes. If I don't compare him to someone from the Marquis of Zhenguo Mansion, do I really want to compare him to someone from Zhenguo Mansion?" Ling Xiang looked at him with a warning look, "Prince, you've crossed the line."
Xuanyuan Qi stopped and stared at Ling Xiang closely: "Ling Xiang, don't compare me with anyone, especially Nangong Yu. He is still called your fiancé, and I am already very unhappy about it."
"I'm upset too." Ling Xiang calculated, "It's time to remind Nangong Yu to cancel the engagement."
Ling Xiang stretched out his hand, "Give me back the crossbow."
Xuanyuan Qi took out a storage bag: "Here, all for you."
Ling Xiang opened it and saw, wow, it was packed full of crossbow arrows! A rough estimate was, at least eighty!
Now, the weapons of the Marquis Zhenguo Mansion have been found!
"You've created so many in such a short time?"
"This is just your share. I have left what belongs to me."
Ling Xiang took a deep breath and had to admire Xuanyuan Qi's efficiency: "Amazing!"
Xuanyuan Qi bewitched him, "I'm not just good at refining weapons, Xiang'er, I'm waiting for you to discover my other strengths."
"That's not necessary!" Ling Xiang shuddered and left quickly: "I'm leaving. I won't see you off."
Xuanyuan Qi stared at the girl's receding back, and the corners of his lips gradually curled up.
How come the girl he's chosen is so interesting...
Walking out, Ling Xiang saw Mu Heng and Xiao Yu standing guard outside the courtyard. It then occurred to her that she had left them both stranded in Prince Huai's mansion for a whole night...
"Ahem, well, let's go home." Ling Xiang tried her best to look calm.
Mu Heng was quite straightforward. He looked Ling Xiang over carefully. "Miss, yesterday someone from Prince Huai's Mansion said you were not feeling well and wanted to stay at the mansion to rest. They wouldn't let us come to see you. What's wrong? Do you want to ask Uncle Qi to come and see you?"
Ling Xiang nodded and shook her head: "I did feel a little uncomfortable yesterday, but I took medicine and I'm fine today. How are you two? Did you sleep well last night?"
Xiaoyu was about the same age as Ling Xiang, and was also a simple-minded person, so she naturally didn't think too much about it. She nodded and said, "Don't worry, Miss. The housekeeper of the Huai Palace is very good and has arranged a good room for us."
