Chapter 23 Stunning



Six days passed in a flash.

Bai Mengyao was so busy that she was almost like a spinning top. She had to help Xiao Xian prepare a birthday gift for the Grand Princess while also keeping an eye on Qinghe Garden.

I don’t know if it’s because the sun is too strong, but her face is getting darker.

She put a layer of powder on her face, looked at herself in the mirror, and made sure that there was nothing wrong. Then she took the birthday gift and walked out of Yaoyuan.

"Princess Bai, the prince has something urgent to do, so please go ahead." The butler said respectfully.

Bai Fengyao felt somewhat disappointed, but she tried her best to pretend to be calm, "Okay, I understand."

On the other hand, after six days, Qu Li had figured out a way to make money quickly.

She is quite knowledgeable about food, clothing, housing, transportation, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.

If combined with medicine and made into medicinal food, you can definitely make a fortune!

Xiao Xian was wearing a purple suit today and a jade crown on his head. Since he got on the carriage, his eyes had never left her face.

What frustrates him is that Qu Li never even looks at him from beginning to end!

I don’t know what she was thinking about, but the corners of her mouth turned up and the smile in her eyes seemed to be about to overflow.

Noticing that aggressive and playful gaze, Qu Li frowned.

"What are you looking at?"

If she didn't want Bai Fengyao to notice anything, she would not have ridden in the same carriage with Xiao Xian, such a scumbag.

"If you didn't look at me, how would you know I was looking at you?"

Qu Li sneered.

The two of them spoke in silence along the way.

"Your Highness, Princess, we've arrived at the Grand Princess's residence!" Awang reported from outside.

Qu Li lifted the car curtain and was about to jump out as usual, but his wrist was suddenly grabbed.

She turned her head, looking suspicious.

"With so many people coming and going, aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"

"Prince Chen married Concubine Bai as his principal wife. Everyone in the capital knew about it. I had already completely lost my dignity back then. Why should I be afraid of being laughed at now?"

After saying that, she brushed away his bony hand, ignored the gloomy emotions surging in his eyes, and jumped out of the carriage.

As early as when the carriage of Prince Chen's Mansion stopped, many people looked over secretly.

After all, there have been too many rumors about Qu Li recently.

Whether it was the academy or the waiter in Qingliu Pavilion, she became the center of the topic.

"Seventh Brother, Seventh Sister-in-law!"

Xiao Qi walked towards the two of them with a warm smile, his eyes sweeping across Qu Li's face inconspicuously.

Qu Li responded with a perfect smile, without even giving Xiao Xian a glance, and walked away.

"Seventh Brother, did you have a fight with Seventh Sister-in-law?"

Xiao Qi touched his elbow with his folding fan, as if smiling.

Xiao Xian was still a little annoyed by what Qu Li had just said to him, his face livid, "Curiosity kills the cat!"

"I'm not curious at all. After all, the lice on the bald head are obvious!" Xiao Qi blinked his peach blossom eyes and gave him a look that said "I understand".

Xiao Xian kicked him and followed Qu Li.

"That woman is so beautiful!"

"Could she be the daughter of some military commander?"

Qu Li felt that the skirts worn by the women of Dagan were inconvenient, so he made some slight improvements. The sleeves were two inches narrower than before, the waist was slightly raised, and the hem of the skirt was also shorter than before.

She looks heroic and indeed looks like the daughter of a military commander.

When Xiao Xian saw some men walking towards Qu Li in groups, the frost on his face became even more intense.

"King Chen?"

Some people were shocked when they saw Xiao Xian grab Qu Li's wrist in an extremely domineering manner.

"Isn't Prince Chen solely in love with Bai Fengyao? He even married her as his principal wife!"

"The look in Prince Chen's eyes just now was so scary!"

"If this woman is the daughter of a military commander, then Prince Chen..."

When it came to the fight for the throne, everyone kept silent tacitly.

Qu Li broke free from Xiao Xian's restraints and said in a very bad tone: "Don't touch me!"

"Qu Li, I'm warning you, don't flirt with other women! The incident with the young prostitute hasn't been explained clearly yet!"

In fact, after meeting the young waiter, Xiao Xian no longer believed those rumors.

After all, that young waiter was nothing like him!

Qu Li sneered: "Haven't you already investigated everything about the young man?"

Besides, there is no love between them, so why should he care whether she is intimate with other men?

"Seventh brother!"

The fourth prince, Xiao Rui, wore a moon-white gown with bamboo leaf patterns embroidered on the cuffs, and his smile was as gentle as jade.

Xiao Xian's expression was even colder than before.

Qu Li's eyes swept back and forth between the two people's faces, and he understood everything.

I'm afraid that Xiao Xian and Xiao Rui are not on good terms with each other!

Xiao Rui glanced at Qu Li calmly and jokingly said, "It's only been a short while since Seventh Brother married Second Miss Bai as his principal wife, and you've already changed your target so quickly?"

Xiao Xian's eyes were stern, "Are Fourth Brother's eyes covered with shit?"

“Puff—”

Qu Li was amused.

The beauty whose smile can conquer the whole city is Qu Li.

She has been bathing in and drinking spiritual spring water every day recently, and her skin is becoming more and more hydrated.

At this moment, the sunlight was shining from above her head, making her face look as white and smooth as a peeled egg. Her eyebrows were curved, which diluted some of the heroic spirit between her eyebrows and made people unable to take their eyes away.

Xiao Rui's eyes were deep and full of calculation.

Xiao Xian was also dazzled by Qu Li's smile.

Several burning gazes were focused on her, and Qu Li suppressed her smile.

"Fourth brother, this is Seventh Sister-in-law!" Xiao Qi came forward and reminded in a low voice.

Xiao Rui's pupils trembled.
