Although she kowtowed to Fei Wan, her forehead was only slightly abraded, and no serious injuries were actually caused.
However, bleeding was inevitable. At first glance, she was covered in blood. Her beautiful eyes looked fragile against the scars. To others, it seemed that Shi Shiwan was deliberately making things difficult for her.
Fei Wan really wanted to make things difficult for her.
Fei Wan did not try to stop her, but just watched her kowtow.
Nan Qingqing thought Fei Wan would always act virtuous no matter what, but Fei Wan was indifferent to her behavior.
"Since you like to kowtow, then kowtow the full ninety-nine times."
Fei Wan felt like a vicious female supporting character who was making things difficult for the little white flower heroine, but Nan Qingqing liked being loved this way, so she fulfilled her wish.
Even if the action is too light, it can't be tolerated too many times.
Nan Qingqing felt dizzy and the wound on her forehead was burning.
Nan Qingqing gritted her teeth and persevered. She tried her best to keep the condition within the range of recovery, but if she continued like this, she would really be disfigured!
It was not until Xiao Heng arrived that she pretended to have lost her strength and fell to the side. When she looked up and saw Xiao Heng, she stumbled to her feet. This time, her tears were more sincere than usual.
What a pity...
Xiao Heng didn't recognize her.
Xiao Heng rushed over and saw a palace maid with blood on her forehead lying beside Fei Wan, and the palace maid was approaching him.
Xiao Heng dodged a few steps, not wanting the other party to fall and dirty the corner of his clothes.
His first reaction was to care about Fei Wan's safety: "Wan'er, are you okay?"
Xiao Heng's eyes were full of concern, and he didn't even spare a glance for Nan Qingqing.
Nan Qingqing was desperate.
It seems...
Xiao Heng didn't really love Nan Qingqing, otherwise why didn't he recognize her.
"I'm fine."
Fei Wan couldn't control the curve of her lips, but she couldn't show it too obviously, for she was afraid that she would burst out laughing while talking.
Fortunately, Xiruo was smart enough and she told the whole story.
When Xiao Heng heard that this was intentional, he frowned and asked sternly, "Which palace are you from? What are your intentions in following the Queen?"
Without even waiting for Nan Qingqing to argue, he waved to the guards: "Come here, take her away and interrogate her no matter what..."
Nan Qingqing's tears stopped in fear, and she hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I am usually the maid in charge of the magnolia forest."
Xiao Heng was a little unhappy about being interrupted, but after hearing these words he remained silent for a rare moment.
He looked towards Nan Qingqing. Although her face was covered in blood and was difficult to identify because of the veil, the voice and figure did sound somewhat familiar.
It seems... it's Nan Qingqing.
Compared with her previous appearance, she was too miserable, and Xiao Heng felt a little more pity in his heart.
But this little bit of affection disappeared completely after Fei Wan opened her mouth.
"She might not have followed me intentionally, so it's better to let her go. But I haven't seen her true face yet, so I feel uneasy."
Being followed by a suspicious palace maid, Fei Wan just wanted to see what she looked like to prevent any hidden dangers in the future. Fei Wan's request was not excessive.
But this irritated Xiao Heng.
If he agreed, all his efforts to win back Fei Wan's heart would be wasted if the lower half of Nan Qingqing's face was revealed.
What's more... he had a heart of pity just now, but now reminding him that it was Nan Qingqing who did it on purpose...
He had clearly warned her not to get close to Fei Wan, but Nan Qingqing disobeyed his orders. Xiao Heng became even more furious and felt that it was all his own fault.
