Xiao Xian's face was as dark as ink.
"Qu Li, the sun is still in the sky!"
After uttering a few extremely displeased words, he turned away, ignoring the frail Bai Fengyao and the stunned Qu Li.
Qu Li sneered.
Did Xiao Xian think that she was daydreaming about wanting to divorce him?
As long as the academy is built and everything goes according to her ideas, she will let Xiao Xian take a good look to see if she is just dreaming!
Bai Fengyao also gnashed her teeth in hatred.
He clearly said that the reason he married Qu Li was because he had no choice.
But why did she feel that Xiao Xian's attitude towards Qu Li was very subtle?
Can't!
She clenched her fingers, her eyes filled with murderous intent.
Qu Li raised an eyebrow, admiring Bai Fengyao's face which was twisted by anger and jealousy, and curled his lips: "Concubine Bai, if you have nothing to do in the future, don't come to my Qinghe Garden!"
Bai Fengyao bit her lips and said nothing.
Not long after she returned to Yaoyuan, she heard from her maid that Xiao Xian asked Doctor Mu to deliver burn medicine to Qu Li.
Burning with jealousy, she smashed the teacup to the ground.
Qu Li!
Why don’t you just die!
Xiao Xian!
You clearly promised me that you would treat me well forever and that I would be the only one in your heart!
Cui Liu glanced at her secretly and didn't dare to go forward.
"What's up?"
After several incidents happened in succession, Xiao Xian asked Cui Liu to work as a maid. However, after two days, her fingers became rough.
"Concubine Bai, I heard that the Shadow Pavilion never fails!"
Bai Fengyao restrained her breath, "Shadow Pavilion?"
Cui Liu looked around cautiously and said, "As long as you can afford it, there's nothing Shadow Pavilion can't do."
After saying this, fearing that she would be suspected, she retreated quietly.
Bai Fengyao sat down and thought seriously.
Qu Li must be eliminated as soon as possible, but this matter must be planned carefully. After all, the few times we have dealt with Qu Li, nothing has gone well!
The next day, Qu Yuxing sent people to the eastern suburbs to survey the land.
The news that Qu Li was going to establish a new academy in the name of Qu Wenzhao spread throughout the streets within just one morning.
Some people feel grateful to Qu Li for being a descendant of the Li family, and they feel a surge in their hearts!
Some people think that she was instructed by an expert and wanted to win a good reputation for herself.
For a time, there were mixed reviews.
And within these two voices, another discordant voice emerged.
Princess Qu Li of Prince Chen has a lover in Qingliu Pavilion who looks like Prince Chen Xiao Xian, and they have already had physical contact!
The rumor spread like wildfire, spreading very quickly.
Xiao Xian was extremely angry. Lu Ren hadn't been found yet, and now another prostitute had appeared?
"Guangping, check for me!"
Guangping looked embarrassed: "Your Majesty, this matter should not be groundless!"
"Are you saying that there really is a young prostitute in Qingliu Pavilion who resembles me?"
At this moment, Xiao Xian wished he could cut that young waiter into pieces, and even more so, he wished he could tear Qu Li into pieces.
"I will investigate immediately." Guangping paused. "However, anyone who knows such a secret of the princess must be closely related to the Yongshun Marquisate."
Xiao Xian's face grew even darker.
As soon as Guangping left, Bai Fengyao came to the study with snacks.
"Your Majesty."
Xiao Xian's brows furrowed even deeper, "Why are you here?"
"I have personally made some snacks for Your Highness, please try them." As she spoke, she looked around cautiously.
"Put it there first, I'll eat it later!"
Bai Fengyao pursed her red lips, picked up a piece of thousand-layer cake with her delicate hands, and handed it to his mouth: "I know that Your Highness doesn't like sweets. This thousand-layer cake is something I personally improved. Your Highness, please try it."
Unable to resist, Xiao Xian had to hold it in his mouth.
It has a salty and fragrant taste and an excellent texture.
"Hard."
"Cooking for your Highness is not hard at all!" Bai Fengyao hesitated, "Your Highness, I heard that the Grand Princess' birthday is in seven days. Can I accompany you there?"
Xiao Xian subconsciously wanted to refuse.
Bai Fengyao had been secretly observing his expression, and a wave of suffocation came over her heart again.
It had only been a few days, and Xiao Xian, who had married her as his principal wife, was now hesitating.
And all these changes are because of Qu Li!
"If Your Highness feels that it is inappropriate, then just pretend that I have never said anything. I am just a concubine's daughter. To have Your Highness's favor is already a blessing earned in three lifetimes. I really shouldn't expect anything more."
Her eyes were red and her voice was full of grievance.
"I was just thinking about what gift to prepare for my aunt!" Xiao Xian made up a lame excuse.
Bai Fengyao seemed oblivious to his reluctance and said with a charming smile, "If Your Majesty has no other ideas, I can help you resolve your problems."
"Thank you for your hard work, Yao'er!"
"I'm just helping His Majesty prepare a gift for the Grand Princess. It's not hard work at all! Your Majesty shouldn't be busy tonight, right?"
She hinted timidly.
Xiao Xian also felt a dull pain in the Guanyuan and Qihai acupoints.
Bai Fengyao's expectations were like being doused with a basin of ice water.
"My father has ordered me to go to the army to reorganize it today. I'm afraid Yao'er will have to stay alone in the empty room."
"I am not wronged."
Bai Fengyao tried her best to remain calm, but she hated Qu Li in her heart.
At this moment, Qu Li had no idea that he had attracted another wave of hatred.
After visiting Qu Wenzhao, she planned to let Awang take her for a walk on the street so that she could figure out how to obtain a large amount of gold and silver in a short period of time.
Suddenly, a dangerous aura swept towards her.
Qu Li calmly moved out of the carriage.
Awang: "Princess, what do you want?"
"Put me down in front."
"Princess, there's nothing to see here!"
"Of course I know, there's a killer!"
The color on Awang's face disappeared instantly.
"Princess, please sit down. I will lead you out of here right away."
Qu Li just felt touched.
At first, Awang was attracted by her because of the jade pendant in her hand, and later it was because she saved his son who almost suffocated to death after swallowing a walnut by mistake.
He became loyal to her and even took the initiative to transfer to Qinghe Garden to drive her carriage.
"Awang, this killer is very powerful, don't take risks with me!"
There are smoke bombs and various poisons in her space. If she were alone, she would be able to escape easily.
Awang whipped the horse hard, and the horse felt pain and ran forward.
The dangerous aura is getting closer and closer.
Qu Li simply jumped off the carriage. Awang couldn't control the galloping horse for a moment, so he could only turn his head and watch Qu Li jump off the carriage, then roll twice on the ground and enter the alley next to him.
"princess!"
Qu Li said: "Don't worry about me, the prince has always arranged people around me!"
Awang was not sure whether this was true or not, so he could only think about returning to the palace as quickly as possible to report the news, and perhaps he could still save the princess!
