The Anarchic Consort [ Chapter 200+ ]

Chapter 274: That person is coming back

The little aide came out of the palace bedroom with bowls and chopsticks in her hands. She came across Hei Zhu who she hadn't met for a long time. She wore a cheongsam, as if she had just come in from outside the palace. Hei Zhu's eyes brightened when she saw the little aide, "Qing Zhan, you're back!"

It seemed that no one had called her with this name for ages. The little aide slowed down for a moment and then nodded.

Hei Zhu's hands slid and she creased her slim eyebrows. "Why are you doing these things? It's not true that you're serving that woman Helian Wei Wei now, as those palace maids said, right? "

Qing Zhan took a look at her and corrected her faintly: "Call her the princess."

Hei Zhu scoffed at her, "Princess? She will lose that position soon."

Qing Zhan's hands that were holding the bowls and chopsticks stilled. She knew Hei Zhu would not say such a thing without being 100% sure. Could it be something unexpected happen?

Hei Zhu continued saying, "Her methods are only indulging passions. His Highness has never met anyone like that before and put up with her."

Qing Zhan looked at the bowls and chopsticks in her hands without uttering any words.

Hei Zhu spoke again, ""I advise you to leave her as soon as possible. Don't you like Young Master Lie? It will be much better to ask Young Master Lie to help you leave."

Qing Zhan raised her head, her eyes were serious. "I've never thought of asking him for helping me leave, ever."
"I know, I know." Hei Zhu did not know what temper she was having, and patted her gently on the back of her hand.

Qing Zhan thought in her heart, "You don't know it. Just because liking a person, I won't put myself down and be that person's concubine."

She couldn't help recall what the princess had said to her.

That was a recklessly elegant and unconventional manner.

She had never imagined it before.

From the time she entered the palace to be a death warrior, she only had one person in her eyes. At that time, she had no extra thoughts at all. They both were still young. When she finished training, she would stand in the shadows and watch the little boy frown and perform divination. She knew that he did not love her. Every time he went out, she would come along with some new things, just to make him happy. It seemed that as long as he smiled, it was worth doing anything. More importantly, she didn't care if she was covered all over with cuts and bruises for him.

It's just that she forgot her identity too much.

She had a humble life.

Perhaps because she got accustomed to her lowly situation that made it easy for her to regard a person as her world.

If she stayed by the princess' side, her life would be more meaningful than it was now and it would be easier to forget the past.

She had never been to the academy before, and the princess said she would take her to see it.

So then, why would she leave the princess?

At that instant, Qing Zhan didn't quite understand why she got angry at Hei Zhu. "You should be polite to the princess in the future."

Hei Zhu looked at her and smiled. "I know you are worried about me, but His Highness only cares about elder sister. As long as she comes back to the Palace, should you be afraid to offend that substitute?"

Qing Zhan was stunned, as if she couldn't believe what she heard. "Elder sister was not already..."
Hei Zhu coughed a few times, it was as if she said something wrong. "I meant what if that's the case."
Qing Zhan looked at her and her heart fell down. "It's hard to say. I can only say that, unlike what you think, the princess will not be her substitute."
