Chapter 705 The Princess Wants to See Her

"Do you want the store owner to go in person?" Qin Yao raised her voice a degree.

Liu Fei swallowed and nodded heavily.

Qin Yao smiled speechlessly and slapped the table with a bang, "You're trying to do that to me!"

The fragile table shook and then broke.

But it did not fall down, it was holding on tenaciously, as if it would turn into powder at any time with just a breath of air.

Liu Fei took a step back. The aura of his third sister-in-law was so frightening that if he could kneel down, he would have really wanted to talk to her.

Qin Yao took a deep breath to calm her excitement, and picked up another banknote wrapped in red cloth, which contained a total of 4,500 taels of "straw paper" that had already been delivered to the princess's mansion.

Looking up at the trembling Liu Fei, she knew that she had frightened the child, so she restrained her momentum and gave him a smile that she thought was gentle, "Tell him again, don't miss any details."

The candlelight in the room was swaying in the wind. Coincidentally, a shadow flashed across Qin Yao's smile, revealing her white teeth. Liu Fei was startled when he saw it.

He was not sure whether his third sister-in-law was angry, and tried hard to recall his trip to the princess's mansion in the evening, making sure not to miss any details.

"After the accounts with Fulong Company were settled yesterday, I calculated the money for you and the money for the Princess's Mansion and packed them separately. When I sent them to the Princess's Mansion, I wrapped them in red brocade, put them in a basket, and covered them with a layer of yellow straw paper."

"Knowing that I was going to the Princess's Mansion today, I left the store at noon and went to inform the back door manager of the Princess's Mansion. After we agreed on a time, I went to the Princess's Mansion with the prepared straw paper."

Having had the same experience as the first time, he still took the back door this time.

However, when the appointed steward showed up, he did not allow him to enter, nor did he want the silver reward he gave him, and refused to let him in no matter what.

When Liu Fei saw it, he thought something was wrong. They had just made the appointment at noon, so why did they suddenly change their mind?
He guessed that there must be something fishy going on here.

After a lot of probing, the steward told him that their prince consort had returned from the other courtyard and that His Highness was avoiding seeing men outside the royal family.

At this point, the hint is already very obvious.

But Liu Fei didn't understand it at the time. After all, Her Royal Highness the Princess had to avoid suspicion for her husband? It was simply unheard of.

Finally, after much hassle with the steward, he said, "Your Highness, you don't want to see other men. Why don't you ask your boss's wife to come?"

Liu Fei suddenly realized that he was waiting here!
Can't these big shots just speak their mind?

They have to make people guess without saying the key words for a long time. Do they think that everyone is a worm in their stomachs and their guesses will be correct?

If you don't understand this, you will make a big mistake!

Or is it that those in power all like to behave this way to appear sophisticated?

There is no harm without comparison. Liu Fei suddenly discovered that his third sister-in-law was a really nice person. She spoke her mind and never let her subordinates guess.

However, Her Royal Highness the Princess was not someone that a commoner like him could comment on, so Liu Fei just complained a few words in his heart.

Qin Yao listened to Liu Fei's description in silence, and became even more silent.

She suddenly thought of the meaning of Mu Ling's words to her before he left on the day he sent Si Niang to the women's garden to register: "We may not see each other this time, but we'll see each other next time."

It seems that since she arrived in Beijing, the princess has been waiting for her to visit her in person.

There is no doubt that it was this woman Mu Ling who came up with the idea. She has the intention to harm her!
It was fine to secretly do something for the princess, Qin Yao had nothing to say, after all, she was relying on the help of others.

But if she were allowed to enter the princess's mansion and stand beside the princess openly to do things for her, the risk level would increase sharply.

Liu Fei didn't see Qin Yao's reaction for a long time, so he couldn't help asking, "Third sister-in-law, are you going?"

He didn't know what the princess was going to do, but he knew that if an ordinary person received such an invitation from the princess, he would have been ecstatic.

She is the extremely powerful eldest princess. If they are favored by her, anything that slips out from between her fingers will be huge wealth for common people like them!

But his third sister-in-law's face was not only not happy, but even more gloomy. Qin Yao pondered for a moment, exhaled a breath of turbid air, put away all the money, and said to Liu Fei:

"I'll take care of it, you don't have to worry about it."

"By the way, you've been in Beijing for so long now, do you have any plans? What I said at the beginning still counts. If you find something you want to do, just tell me. Sister-in-law fully supports you."

Qin Yao changed the subject, not wanting to think about the bad things happening in the princess's mansion for the time being.

Speaking of this, Liu Fei is no longer sleepy.

Sitting down again, he said somewhat embarrassedly, "I should think about opening a shop and doing business with women. I have many ideas, but I haven't decided which one to do. I'm observing."

As he spoke, he subconsciously placed his arms on the edge of the small table.

For a moment, Liu Fei remembered something, but his mind was still thinking about opening his own shop, and the thought flashed through his mind.

Then--

With a "bang", the table under his arm suddenly tilted, and his whole body sank uncontrollably.

Immediately afterwards, Liu Fei fell to the ground in a mess, along with the chair and the small table that shattered into pieces!
There was quite a commotion, and everyone in the backyard ran over.

Liu Jiren was not the fastest to arrive, but he was the loudest.

"Ma'am, what's wrong with you?"

He ran in hurriedly, and his tense eyes relaxed instantly when he saw Liu Fei lying on the ground.

"It's not my wife, then it's okay." Liu Ji waved his hands to the four brothers and sisters of Dalang who followed him, "Retreat!"

Liu Fei's eyes were full of disbelief. After all, they were born by the same father, and yet he didn't even come to help?
Soon, Qin Yao and Liu Fei were the only ones left in the hall.

Qin Yao helplessly pulled the stunned Liu Fei up from the ground and asked him to go back to his room to rest.

I picked up the broken wooden boards and moved them to the kitchen, where they can be recycled and even used for burning firewood.

When I came out of the kitchen, I saw Liu Ji sticking his head out curiously.

Qin Yao raised her hand and slapped him on the forehead, and asked unhappily, "Aren't you retreating?"

"Isn't this just out of concern for you, my lady?" Liu Ji rubbed his forehead as he caught up with her and asked with his eyes wide open:
"Madam, why did you break the table? Who made you unhappy?"

Without waiting for Qin Yao to answer, he said firmly: "Did Liu Fei make you unhappy? I'll go and bring him over right now!"

As he spoke, he grabbed the pole on which the lantern was hung by the door and rushed to the guest courtyard.

"stop!"

Qin Yao: "Get back here!"

"Okay~" Liu Ji quickly put down the pole and ran back to her.

Looking at his sincere eyes, Qin Yao's irritability inexplicably faded a lot.

Let him get himself a basin of water for soaking his feet, and while soaking his feet he imagines what will happen if he refuses the eldest princess's invitation.

Then, I lay down comfortably under Liu Ji's superb massage techniques.

Before falling asleep, he did not forget to tell Liu Ji, "I will go to the Princess's residence tomorrow. If I am not back before curfew, you can pack up and run away."

As soon as I covered myself with the quilt, I fell into a deep sleep.

Liu Ji looked up in shock: What!!!
