Xiao Xian knew that this time, he had really disappointed the Empress Dowager.
Swallowing the bitterness in his mouth, he said goodbye to the Queen Mother and left the palace.
At this time, Rong Yehua was still learning the rules from Nanny Gong and had no idea that Xiao Xian had left.
He asked someone to inform Qu Li that she could go and get a divorce.
Qu Li glanced at Zou Tao across from him calmly: "What else did he say?"
Zou Tao was quite embarrassed. "Princess, you should go to the villa on the outskirts of the city!"
"Why do we have to go to a suburban villa to handle the divorce procedures?"
"The prince said, if you don't go, you'll never get a divorce in this lifetime!"
When Zou Tao saw Qu Li's gloomy eyes, his tongue became tangled.
Changle was quite worried, "Li'er, I'll accompany you!"
Zou Tao quickly stopped him: "The prince said that the princess should go by herself!"
"What on earth is your seventh cousin up to?" Changle frowned angrily.
Qu Li patted the back of her hand soothingly and stood up. "No matter what he wants to do, we will stop him with our own strength!"
"But……"
Changle felt that Xiao Xian was really heartbroken.
No one can guarantee what irrational things this person will do when he is sad.
"don’t worry!"
She is good at poisoning people, and now she no longer has to worry about Xiao Xian pressing her acupoints. Even if Xiao Xian really has some bad intentions towards her, she still has room to maneuver!
"Li'er, you must be careful then."
Qu Li nodded.
She said to Zou Tao, "I'll go back to Wenzhaoyuan first. It will be quick."
After putting the tiger eggs and dog eggs into the space, he followed Zou Tao to the villa in the suburbs.
This is private property under Xiao Xian's name, and the environment is quite quiet.
Zou Tao took her in and saw Xiao Xian standing in the pavilion with his hands behind his back.
Unable to see his expression, but just looking at his back, Qu Li felt that his face must be full of dark clouds at the moment.
"My Lord, the princess is here."
Zou Tao has been secretly following Qu Li for some time, and has developed a master-servant relationship with her.
Thinking that they were about to get divorced, he felt unhappy and even his tone became depressed.
"You go down first."
As soon as Xiao Xian opened his mouth, Qu Li couldn't help but frown at his hoarse voice.
"Xiao Xian, what exactly do you want to do by inviting me here?"
Qu Li was quite annoyed.
She had long known that divorce had never been easy, throughout history.
But Xiao Xian's indecision really annoyed her.
Xiao Xian turned around slowly.
His face was no longer as handsome as before, and there was a hint of gloom between his brows.
"Are you scared?"
Qu Li sneered: "Do you think I'm afraid?"
After saying that, she strode into the pavilion and fearlessly met his deep and cold eyes.
"It's best not to be afraid!" He curled his lips and clapped his hands.
Maids came in one after another carrying food boxes.
Qu Li stared at him critically, trying to see something in his eyes.
But his eyes were too deep and she could not see anything.
Thinking that some divorcing couples would have a farewell dinner after completing the formalities, Xiao Xian simply held the farewell dinner in advance.
It doesn’t matter!
She smiled brightly, and Xiao Xian could see that the divorce really made her happy.
My chest feels stuffy and my breathing is a little difficult.
Qu Li picked up the wine jug, poured a glass of wine and pushed it in front of him.
"Since you want to have a farewell dinner, then sit down and have a good meal! After the farewell dinner, we will part ways and be happy!"
His eyes were deep and he stared at her without blinking. He really couldn't understand how she could say these words so calmly.
Picking up the wine glass, the corners of his mouth curled up in an ambiguous arc: "Part ways? Live happily ever after?"
He didn't even know where the joy in his life would be without her!
"Xiao Xian, since you've already agreed to the divorce, stop going back and forth. It's boring and will make people look down on you!"
"Of course, this king will not go back on his word!"
Qu Li smiled faintly and nodded.
"That's great, of course."
She was afraid that Xiao Xian would be fickle. She finally got a divorce, but she didn't know how long it would take.
"This king will not go back on his word, what about you?"
Some oppressive words reached his ears, and Qu Lishu's eyebrows slowly frowned again.
"Do you want to regret it?"
Xiao Xian raised his head and drank a glass of wine.
As the hot wine went down his throat, he narrowed his eyes slightly.
"You said at the beginning that if I agreed to a divorce, you would help me ascend to that position!"
She was stunned for a moment, and after a long time, she laughed sarcastically.
"Yes, I did. Why, is this your condition?"
Xiao Xian put the wine glass down forcefully.
Although it was a crisp sound, Qu Li still heard the sound of waves crashing against the rocks.
The two of them were separated by a table, looking into each other's eyes. The atmosphere became increasingly tense, with a feeling of overwhelming power.
After a long pause, Qu Li sneered and said, "I discovered earlier that Xiao Ci had planted spies in the Cining Palace."
Xiao Xian was not surprised at all, "There are no secrets in this palace!"
"But you may not be able to place your people in the Second Prince's Mansion, or the Fourth Prince's Mansion, right?"
He had never cared about that position before, but he was still wary of the other princes.
"Also, although Xiao Zhao is still imprisoned in Jingzhao Prefecture's prison, who knows if he's just a replacement?"
The tips of Xiao Xian's fingers holding the wine glass turned white.
He didn't expect that she could think of so much.
"If the only condition for you to agree to a divorce is for me to help you get that position, I agree!"
Her directness made it impossible for Xiao Xian to continue using this matter to make things difficult for her.
"good!"
Qu Li raised his eyebrows and smiled, then raised his glass, "A gentleman's word is his bond!"
"It's too late to catch up!" Xiao Xian raised his glass with difficulty and clinked it with her.
He didn't continue to make things difficult for her, which made Qu Li quite satisfied.
"When are we going to get the divorce?"
"Are you so afraid that I might go back on my word?"
"I just don't like dragging things out!"
The food was quite delicious and not poisonous, so Qu Li ate it leisurely.
"Tomorrow morning!"
"Xiao Xian, you're being a bit boring!"
Her eyes had grown cold.
"What's so boring?"
"I don't want Princess Ye Hua to think that I'm shamelessly bullying you!"
Xiao Xian sneered and suddenly moved closer.
The alcohol-smelling breath sprayed all over her face, and Qu Li retreated in disgust.
"The prince and the princess are going to divorce tomorrow. Is there any problem with staying in this suburban villa for one night?"
"Sorry, I don't have the time, nor the interest to play these weird games with you!"
She was about to leave, but Xiao Xian raised his hand.
"brush--"
Countless archers appeared on the courtyard wall.
The arrowhead reflected the sunlight, shining brightly and extremely dazzling.
"Xiao Xian, you are being too despicable!"
"This prince wants to have a good talk with the princess about the situation in the capital!"
The smile on his lips was full of coldness.
