Concubine, don't flirt: His Royal Highness is hiding something

"It's what concubines should do."

Lu Yin leaned over, only said what should be said, and did not say a word about the rest.

Nangong Yan came out from the inner hall and saw the two of them confronting each other outside, "Wanniang is here." There was tenderness on his face.The indifferent look when he saw Yu Qiqi was like two faces.

"Your Highness, the concubine is greeting the Crown Princess."

Lu Yin explained to him, still holding the bowl of lotus seed soup in his hand.A bead of sweat had already oozed from the forehead.

"Let's go back when you have enough shelves."

He reprimanded Yu Qiqi, took Lu Yin's arm, and led her in.Luyin lowered her head, looking gentle and pleasant.

Yu Qiqi bit her lip, in front of the two of them, Nangong Yan would only protect Luyin.But this time, there was a bit of displeasure on her face.

In the evening, Zhao Niang came in from the outside with a sad face, and said to Yu Qiqi, "Wanniang spent the night in the Hall of Chenghe again."

Yu Qiqi's hand froze, she pretended to be okay and smiled, "Isn't this normal?"

"But the Crown Princess applied the medicine for His Highness for so many days in the past, and didn't stay with His Highness overnight. It's really cheap for Wan Niang, and she picked up the cheapness anyway."

Rare.Zhaoniang also complained.

Yu Qiqi lowered her eyes and said nothing.

bottom of my heart.It seems to have passed a moment of loss.

Prince Yan's Mansion in Nanzhao.

In the study, Yan Churan held the letter sent by Yan Shiqing in his hand, and let out a long sigh, "We've come to this point after all."

The attendant standing aside stepped forward.Picked up his pen from the inkstone and handed it to him, "Does the prince want to enter the palace to ask His Majesty?"

Yan Churan took the pen, hesitated for a moment before writing, "Now we are a war-surrendered country. Even if His Majesty comes forward, it will not help."

"But the identity of the son?" The attendant studied the ink for him, and there was worry in his words.

Yan Churan didn't say any more.He just finished writing his reply letter to Yan Shiqing with a calm face, "When he insisted on being the envoy to pay tribute to Yanjing, I expected this would be the result." There was a hint of helplessness in his old brows and eyes .

Regret also appeared on the attendant's face, "The Seventh Princess has always been the one on the crown of the crown prince's heart." He lowered his head and retreated with the reply letter. In the dark night sky, a white light was drawn by the flying pigeons.

After that day, Nangong Yan no longer asked Yu Qiqi to apply medicine, she heard from Zhaoniang.It was Lu Yin who was serving him.

His mind seemed to be the same as before, not on her anymore.

"Princess, why don't you visit Shizi more now?" A Jian gnawed on an apple and gave her advice.

She watched, a little sullen.It has been several days.

Yu Qiqi shook her head absent-mindedly, and nodded again after a while.

"Seventh sister has something on her mind?"

Yan Shiqing looked at her distraught look, and asked a question.

"No, no."

She lowered her head and ate the pancakes he brought from Nanzhao.

Enduring the bitterness in his heart, he asked with a smile, "Did you quarrel with His Highness?"

She immediately denied, "No, I haven't seen him at all in the past few days, why did I quarrel." She unconsciously picked up the cup in her hand, and took a sip of tea.

At this moment, Yan Shiqing understood seven or eight points in his heart.

"Brother Qing, are you used to living in Yanjing City?" There was a moment of silence in the air, Yu Qiqi concealed her bewilderment and asked him.

Yan Shiqing raised his eyebrows, "Except that the climate is milder than Nanzhao's, there's nothing wrong with it."

"If I find the opportunity, I will definitely ask my father to remove your identity as Yanjing's proton." She put her hands on his sleeves and comforted him.

Although her father was always lukewarm towards her, she thought, he didn't hate her after all, otherwise how could he have put forward the marriage conditions to Nanzhao in the first place.

"Seventh sister, don't worry about me. The reason why Emperor Yan Jing left me as a hostage in Yanjing is because he is still afraid of our power in Nanzhao. My hostage is only a matter of time, and it won't last long."

Yan Shiqing carefully analyzed the current situation with her.

"You're better than me at the affairs of the government and the opposition." Yu Qiqi thought about it for a while, and felt that what he said was not completely unreasonable.

On the way back to the East Palace, Yu Qiqi's carriage suddenly stopped halfway.

"Why didn't you leave?" A Jian asked the driver as he lifted the curtain.

The coachman replied, "There is a sedan chair blocking the way."

Yu Qiqi opened the curtain and saw Chu Peiyu, who was guarding outside a rouge shop with a few imperial soldiers.After a while, she saw Nangong Yan walking out of the room holding Lu Yin's hand.
