Empress, she is beautiful Lu Ziye

Chapter 218 She's Lying
Nan Zhen smiled and sipped her tea quietly.

It was getting late, and people left together one after another, Qin Fangruo dragged Wang Qingwan to talk, which wasted a lot of time, at this moment only Yu Shanshan was the only one who hadn't left in the garden.

She leaned against another part of the waterside pavilion, listening to the greetings between the two, she interjected at the right time, "How long can Miss Wang stay in the capital this time, if we have time, we can make an appointment to play."

Wang Qingwan counted the days and said, "It's probably more than a month. I'll go back after the Chinese New Year."

"That's a good thing." Qin Fangruo smiled brightly, gentle and generous, "just in time for the daughter of the imperial historian to get married."

Wang Qingwan didn't know who the daughter she was talking about, so she didn't ask.

Qin Fangruo has been very intimate from the very beginning, not at all like the one he just met.

Although there was no fault in words or deeds, Wang Qingwan felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.

Over the years, she has followed Wang Fuzhen to many places and met many people. Her eyes are not vicious, but her intuition has always been accurate.

So for the two people in front of him, he was only polite but not interested.

Obviously Yu Shanshan didn't care too much, all she wanted to know was whether the rumor was true or not.

Hearing what Qin Fangruo said, he followed her words, "Speaking of which, the lady from the Yushi family and the son from General Ye's family are really talented and beautiful, which makes people envious."

Qin Fangruo met her gaze and instantly understood what she meant, "Yes, Mr. Ye is a well-known talent in Beijing. When the news of the engagement broke out, I don't know how many hearts were broken."

The two sang together, and it was too late for Wang Qingwan to interrupt.

The slightly raised smile on the corner of his mouth was a little stiff.

He had just been hit, and when he heard about other family's happy events, he always felt that he was even more pitiful, so he prepared to leave.

Before she could open her mouth, Yu Shanshan's next words made her freeze in place, "But if you really want to talk about the person you like, I'm afraid most of them will say that they are like His Royal Highness Chen Wang."

Wang Qingwan's heart tightened, but her expression remained calm.

Pick up the plum blossom crisp in front of you, take a bite, and cover up your emotions.

Qin Fangruo shook his head and paid attention to her actions distractedly, "Your Majesty's celestial appearance is beyond my imagination."

Yu Shanshan seemed to realize something was wrong, and said quickly, "Blame me, blame me, thinking that there is no one else here, so I didn't pay attention."

Seeing Wang Qingwan keeping her eyes down, she smiled and said, "Miss Wang, have you seen Your Highness?"

The sudden question made Wang Qingwan frowned slightly, and she squeezed the pastry with a little force, and fine pieces of crispy skin fell down.

She shook her head, "In the past years, I have been in a hurry, and I haven't even visited the capital, and I have never had a chance to meet His Royal Highness Chen Wang."

Yu Shanshan lowered her eyelids slightly, "I see."

She is lying.

They both ran into each other that day, but she said she hadn't seen each other.

Wang Qingwan's expression was the same, but the maid behind her looked at her unnaturally when she heard the name of His Royal Highness Chen Wang.

Qin Fangruo also noticed it, and was about to mention it again, but Wang Qingwan spoke first, "Miss Yu, Miss Qin, it's getting late, and I should go back, otherwise my father will be worried."

She got up and bowed slightly, "I had a great chat with the two young ladies today, we will meet again some other day."

This move caught Qin Fangruo off guard, and he had no choice but to swallow the words that came to his lips, and changed his words, "Since that's the case, we won't keep you."

Wang Qingwan nodded with a smile, turned and left.

In a bad mood, he didn't notice that the plank road outside the water pavilion was a bit slippery.
