Qu Li's heart trembled slightly, and she could not withstand his seductive and passionate gaze.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
He held her in his arms and buried his head in the crook of her neck.
"When I was little, my mother used to touch my head like this! This time when I went back, my mother was trying to control her emotions, but I could tell she really wanted to touch my head like she did when I was little!"
It was just because the treacherous queen was watching her from the side that she didn't dare to show too much enthusiasm, for fear that the queen would continue to use her to control him.
"I believe there will be opportunities in the future!"
"Li'er, your mother will definitely like you very much." Feng Yi held her shoulders, his voice hoarse.
"Yeah!" She forced a shy smile.
Feng Yi rubbed her nose, revealing a rare tired look: "Lie down with me for a while, okay?"
"good."
Qu Li is not a pretentious person, and he doesn't have so many barriers between men and women.
If Feng Yi betrayed her one day, she would never be moved by him again in this strange time and space.
They lay down with their clothes on. She hugged him, feeling his warm breath on her neck. The corners of her mouth turned up, and her eyes were full of tenderness.
Feng Yi fell asleep very quickly, which shows how tired he was during this period.
He didn't open his eyes until night fell.
Seeing the girl he liked right next to him, he experienced what happiness was for the first time.
"Awake? Did you sleep well?" Qu Li asked.
Feng Yi noticed that she was frowning all the time, and suddenly realized that her arm must be numb, so he sat up immediately.
"Why didn't you pull your arm out after I fell asleep?" He massaged her.
"I was afraid of waking you."
She had just helped him wipe his hands and he was awakened.
"Feel sorry."
Two fingers touched her lips, and the soft and fragrant touch made Feng Yi's heart beat faster again.
"Don't say these two words anymore!"
"Are you feeling better?" he asked in a low voice.
"It's okay! Hiss...it hurts a little!" Qu Li actually wanted to take out a silver needle and prick him, but his eyes were full of concern and self-blame, so she let him do it.
"Then I'll be gentler! Just bear with it!"
When these words reached Qian Jiuzhao's ears, smoke almost came out of his head.
"It's indecent!"
The deputy pavilion master rolled his eyes at him and said, "If you want to be mute forever, I'll grant you that!"
"Old Wei, I didn't offend you, did I? How could you be so cruel to me!"
"I'm doing this for your own good! Can't you see how much the master cares about Miss Qu?"
"That's why he came here from Southern Qi without caring about anything! And this Qu Li is the same. A divorced woman actually dared to harass the Fifth Prince!"
"Bang--"
A powerful internal force and a silver needle infused with internal force attacked Qian Jiumo.
Qian Jiuzhao was hit in the chest, and his blood surged violently. Immediately afterwards, the silver needle pierced his mute point, and he became the mute Qian Jiuzhao again.
There was panic in his eyes. He pointed at his mouth and looked at the deputy leader for help.
"Should!"
The deputy leader showed him no mercy.
Fortunately, he dodged quickly, otherwise he would have been knocked out by the internal force.
Feng Yi was surrounded by a cold and low pressure, and his eyes seemed to be frozen as he stared at the embarrassed Qian Jiuzhao.
Qian Jiuzhao tried to beg for mercy, but he was speechless.
Looking at Qu Li standing next to him, the fire of resentment in his heart began to rise.
"I've always thought you spoke harshly, and I even thought you might have accidentally eaten feces as a child! Now I understand that it's because you have a filthy heart that you say such disgusting nonsense!"
What Qu Li couldn't stand the most was what Qian Jiuzhao had said before, "divorced woman".
Women in this era are already subject to many constraints, but there are still people who treat women with such contempt and derogatory attitude. He deserves to suffer!
Qian Jiuzhao even wanted to kill Qu Li at this moment.
He just couldn't understand it. He was clearly wholeheartedly doing it for the Fifth Prince, so why did he end up being caught between a rock and a hard place?
The deputy leader, in particular, was afraid of being implicated and avoided him everywhere.
Qu Li continued, "Why is it that in this world, men are allowed to have three wives and four concubines, and to have women on every side? Why is it that men are allowed to make mistakes without being criticized by others?"
Qian Jiuzhao glared at her angrily.
Qu Li smiled faintly: "You want to have a good argument with me?"
He raised his chin slightly.
She took out another silver needle and untied his mute point.
Qian Jiuzhao let out a long breath, stretched his neck, and looked like an angry trapped beast.
"A woman should follow the Three Obediences and Four Virtues, and stay home to take care of her husband and children! To be frank, your reputation wasn't very good before! If you were truly good, Prince Chen wouldn't have been seduced by Bai Fengyao, and all this wouldn't have happened! But you, on the other hand, are so jealous that instead of reflecting on yourself, you're even trying to divorce Prince Chen! A woman like you, marrying into a family will only bring disaster to your husband's family..."
The more he spoke, the lower his voice became. He felt a chill on the back of his neck and had to shrink his neck to calm the uneasiness deep in his heart.
The deputy leader looked at the sky silently.
This idiot, can't he see how important Miss Qu is to the Fifth Prince?
Feng Yi was about to speak, but Qu Li held his arm down.
He turned his head and looked at her with sharp eyes.
There was no trace of displeasure on Qu Li's face. There was a deep smile on the corner of his mouth, but it did not reach his eyes.
"Women are independent individuals. They don't necessarily have to rely on men to realize their own value! Who says women must be confined to the harem, fighting to the death for a man? In my opinion, if you step out of the harem, the world is much wider!"
That's right, I really didn't do well enough before! I tried so hard to make a man who didn't love me and didn't value me see my sincerity, and wanted him to know how deep my love was. But I forgot that if someone doesn't love you, then they don't love you, and if they don't like you, then they don't like you! "
After hearing Qu Li's heartfelt words, the deputy leader couldn't help but applaud and praise her.
Feng Yi looked at her with even more intense eyes.
Feeling his deep and burning gaze, Qu Li curved her lips and smiled slightly.
The moment their eyes met, the air seemed to be sweet.
Qu Li continued, "Qian Jiuzhao, you despise women so much. Where do you put your biological mother who gave birth to you and raised you, and your wife who loves you so sincerely?"
Qian Jiuzhao's expression instantly turned extremely ugly, and his hands under his sleeves were clenched tightly.
Qu Li felt that the way he looked at her was like that of a hungry wolf, ready to tear her into pieces at any time, but also with a bit of resentment.
"Hey, why are you gone?"
He turned and left in a rage. Qu Li's eyes twitched fiercely and he shouted at his back.
The Vice Pavilion Master clasped his fists and said, "Miss Qu, he's like a stone in a toilet, smelly and hard, but he has a good heart! He's acting this way because he's worried about affecting the Fifth Prince's plans! As for his biological mother..."
Qu Li frowned, "What happened to his biological mother?"
