deep palace cold girl

Chapter 21

"Princess Qingshang? What happened? Why are all the guards outside unconscious? Also, your maid..."

"Master Yan, why did you appear here?"

Interrupting him, I tried to calm down the panic in my heart. Every time that man appeared, he would give me a great shock, with pain, anger, and sadness...

Yan Xige seemed to see that I didn't want to tell what happened just now, and his anxious expression gradually disappeared. He looked at me, his lips squirmed, his eyes were complicated, and he didn't speak for a while.

"Princess, you don't seem to like me?"

The corners of my lips curled slightly, and I squinted at him, feeling amused by the grievances and complaints in his words.

It was only a two-way relationship with him, and the total number of words he said did not exceed five sentences. He looked like I had made a big mistake.

"Mr. Yan, why does Qingshang like you? Because you are a talented man admired by the ladies of Shu Jing? Or, because you are a distinguished guest of the palace, the son of the prime minister, the famous flying playboy?"

I laughed mockingly, all my patience had already been exhausted, at this moment, I just wanted to find a place where no one was around and cry, instead of forcing a smile in front of him.

"You, I, I didn't mean that!"

Yan Xige's face turned red, a little annoyed, a little annoyed, and when it was over, he sighed in discouragement.

The peach-like eyes stared at me, as if they wanted to penetrate the veil, the eyes were burning hot.

"I know, because you were misunderstood by the little prince last time, you are a little annoyed. Yan Xige hereby apologizes to the princess, but Xige has no other intentions. He just wants to be friends with the princess, not I am disgusted by you. If Xige offends, please forgive me, Xige will leave!"

His face darkened, he turned around to leave, but suddenly stopped, looked back at me, and said worriedly:
"Princess, you don't want to tell me what happened just now, Xige won't ask any more, but people's hearts are complicated, so you should be more careful!"

Looking at his back, I was a little dazed, very puzzled by him.

Why does he care about me so much?It didn't go away because of my reputation as a ruined flower, but reminded me to be careful.

Smiling and shaking his head, he didn't want to think about these things, it was a headache.

He walked up to Dong'er, held her in his arms, and gently rocked her.

"Dong'er? Dong'er wake up..."

Opening her eyes in a daze, Dong'er stared at me blankly, a little unclear about the situation.

"Princess, what's the matter? Why did Dong'er fall asleep?"

"Perhaps I'm too tired, go back to the house and rest, I'm going back too, the sky is a bit gloomy, I'm afraid it's going to be windy."

Dong'er scratched her head foolishly, thinking that she was tired and fell asleep unknowingly, picked up the zither with a broken string, and returned to Liuyan Pavilion.

A broken string is easy to continue, but a broken heart is hard to mend!
Is that throbbing heart because of leaving this land soon, or because of being betrayed by the most trusted, dearest and most beloved person?
It was getting late, I stayed in Liuyan Pavilion and didn't go out, and I didn't know much about the outside affairs.

According to Dong'er, the number of guards outside Liuyan Pavilion has doubled, and the envoys from the Shengyan Dynasty have arrived. Although the prince's illness has been taken according to the doctor's instructions, it still hasn't improved.

My mind was in a mess and I thought about a lot of things. I thought about my childhood, before I was six years old, and my parents who couldn’t remember their faces.

How good it would be if I didn't have this face. When I feel depressed, I always think like this, and then I smile wryly, and the tears can't stop pouring out.

Everyone knows how delicate a beauty is, but they don't know that a beauty is troubled. Everyone in the world loves this face, who can understand this heart?
Leaning against the window, buried his face in his arms.

Brother Ling is washing the dust for the envoys of the Shengyan Dynasty, and that man must be there too. Thinking of his words, I can't help but panic, do you really want to get married?

Marrying a man I don't know and becoming a pawn in the game between the two countries, do I really want to let them control my life?
I don't want to, and I don't want to!

Brother Ling, I just want to ask, is he also involved in all this, or is it just the prince leading it?
In the bright Baihuang hall, the officials of the DPRK and China were separated on both sides, their faces were obviously tense and anxious.

Mu Shaoling was in the main position, his indifferent eyes swept over everyone, and a soft smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

"My lords, are you feeling unwell? If so, go back earlier!"

Everyone was startled when they heard this, and looked up at Mu Shaoling in bewilderment, but when they met his cold eyes, they shuddered and lowered their heads in panic.

The young prince seemed gentle and harmless, but his aura was even more intimidating than the old prince's. Even the courtiers who had gone through the storm were now in a cold sweat.

Hastily corrected his face, not daring to show the slightest bit of nervousness.

Yan Xige returned to the Baihuang Hall without a trace, and stood behind the prime minister, looking at the man sitting at the top with pensive eyes, no one could guess his thoughts.

Growing up with him since he was a child, he clearly knows that Mu Shaoling is by no means the harmless tiger that has been sleeping all the time. When he wakes up, the fierce evil is the most frightening.

Thinking of Mu Qingshang, his eyes darkened, and a sense of loss filled his heart.

Five years ago, when I saw her for the first time, she was an innocent and happy girl. Although she was wearing a veil and her face could not be seen clearly, the radiance of happiness was as bright as the morning sun.

Now, but lost that vitality, more sentimental.

He knew that all this was because of that gentle man.

He also knew that she and Mu Shaoling were destined to be brother and sister, so he thought he had a chance, so he begged his father to come forward and say that he wanted to marry the palace, and wanted the woman who made him lose his heart just by meeting.

However, he didn't expect that she was not the woman he could want, she was a pawn to use for a kiss!
I feel sorry for her, but there is nothing I can do!

He couldn't figure out Mu Shaoling's heart, he knew that Mu Shaoling cared more about Mu Qingshang than anyone else.

But he didn't know what kind of thoughts he had on this marriage.

"Report to my little prince, the envoys of the Shengyan Dynasty have arrived!"

The guards in green came forward to report, and everyone stood up, walking out behind Mu Shaoling.
