Quick Wear: When a Delicate Beauty Becomes Cannon Fodder

The Little Princess in the Palace (19)

  Palace of Heavenly Purity.

  Qi Guanyao sat on the dragon chair and reviewed memorials.

  He didn't lean on it anymore, and he showed a rare seriousness when handling government affairs.

  "How come you have time to come here today, brother?"

  Qi Guanyao put down the cinnabar imperial pen in his hand and glanced over lightly.

  "I heard that Miss Ruan will be returning to Your Majesty, so I came to congratulate Your Majesty."

  Qi Guanyu cupped his hands in a pretentious gesture and continued, "Your Majesty is really good at this. Can you teach me too?"

  There was a frivolous smile in his words.

  Qi Guanyao came down from the dragon throne, also wearing a rich red outfit today, with unknown dark patterns embroidered with gold thread on his outer garment.

  "I'm afraid my brother doesn't need it." Qi Guanyao chuckled, "After all, my brother prefers Qinlou and Chuguan. Even if there is a way, it would be a waste to teach him."

  His voice was faint, "There's no need for these there."

  Qi Guanyu looked a little unhappy, but he quickly adjusted himself as if he had thought of something.

  He happily admitted it.

  "Your Majesty is right!"

  After a few seconds, he continued, "I heard that the Prime Minister sent the Su family's legitimate daughter to the palace overnight. Wow, he is really infatuated!"

  "He was worried that the fight at your majesty's wedding was actually for ill intentions, so he hurriedly sent the real owner here. This affection almost moved me, but it's a pity that Miss Ruan was unmoved..."

  Qi Guanyu looked at His Majesty standing in front of him, with a hint of subtle malice in his eyes.

  "Your Majesty, are you afraid? If she is moved after knowing this..."

  "You talk too much."

  Qi Guanyao interrupted him, staring at him with his dark eyes, but his face did not seem affected at all.

  Qi Guanyu was choked.

  "Since Your Majesty does not want to hear this, I will not say anything."

  He bowed slightly and said, "I'll take my leave."  

  He turned his back to Qi Guanyao, with a smile on his face.

  He didn't believe that Qi Guanyao was really so indifferent.

  The gaze behind him was very noticeable. He had never received such a look before, never.

  Although he was unwilling to admit it, Qi Guanyao would just treat him as air when he said useless things in the past.

  Let him experience the frustration of punching cotton.

  From today on, everything will change.

  ...

  Su Qianrou has calmed down at this moment.

  After she escaped from the palace, she went all the way to Jiangnan and settled there for a while. Although she didn't live a rich life, she could make do with it. At least she was free and healthy.

  She was caught while washing clothes by the river. A group of people arrested her without any explanation.

  They didn't say anything no matter what she asked, they just kept taking her on the road.

  If she made a scene, they wouldn't hurt her, they would just knock her out.

  So later she learned her lesson and just followed them quietly, trying to find a way to escape.

  After returning to the capital, she had a guess in her mind that those people might be sent by her father, but she met an unexpected person.

  Prime Minister Rong Yan.

  She couldn't understand why the prime minister sent people to arrest her when her father had already let her go. Couldn't he just let her go?

  But she didn't realize the seriousness of the matter at the moment. It wasn't until the Prime Minister sent her to the palace overnight that she was really scared.

  At first, Su Qianrou didn't dare to inquire about the news in the capital, but later she found out that someone had replaced her.

  The man was tortured in every way by the tyrant in the palace and was in excruciating pain.

  After learning the news, she did feel pity for the girl, but she was more relieved.

  Fortunately, I am not the one who has to bear it!!
