Chapter 68: If He Doesn't Sleep, Neither Does The Princess(1/2)
"Miss, what are you looking at?"
Seeing what she was looking at intently, Holly asked curiously.
"Do you still remember the female doctor you met at Ningci'an before?"
"Female doctor?"
Dongqing tilted her head and thought for a moment, "Oh, I remember, this slave girl is the one who has a special affinity with Madam. Her name seems to be Lin Qianxue."
"Yes, that's her. I remember my mother said at the time that she came to Beijing to find relatives. The person in the carriage just now should be her. I don't know if she has found her relatives."
Dongqing curled her lips and said, "Miss, if you have time to care about others, why not care more about yourself."
Lin Feiwan's heart suddenly sank to the bottom. Xue Qianyu had been having trouble lately, always targeting her.
It was almost lunch time, so she had to hurry back to the palace.
…
"Ah sneeze!"
Xue Qianyu sneezed, startling the secret guard who was about to enter.
"What's the matter?"
"Master, there is news from Divine Doctor Shen that the princess can learn some light kung fu and boxing, but remember not to overwork her."
"Well, send someone to invite Mr. Xu."
"Master, the Third Highness is here to visit, saying that he is here to ask for your suggestions on rebuilding the Yilan Palace."
Zhuiyun's voice came, Xue Qianyu frowned and said calmly: "Take the person to the front hall."
Outside the gate, when Xue Chengche heard that he was asked to go to the front hall instead of the study, Xue Chengche's originally proud face instantly faded a bit.
It seems that even if his father acquiesces, his uncle has no intention of taking sides.
Or maybe he was just worried that his father was deliberately testing him, so he was so cautious?
No matter what, he must seize the opportunity.
Even if Xue Qianyu really doesn't want to take sides, he still has to create an illusion that the other party supports him.
After making up his mind, the smile on Xue Chengche's face was brighter than before.
Across a corridor, you can see Xue Qianyu drinking tea in the front hall.
He behaves calmly and leisurely, and even though his eyes are covered with white silk, he still can't block the awe-inspiring aura between his eyebrows.
In terms of not being angry and self-promoting, this imperial uncle is somewhat more prosperous than his father, and his ability and prestige are also higher than that of his father.
No wonder my father was extremely afraid of him and couldn't hold back because he relied on him.
If it were him, he would probably make the same choice as his father.
"My nephew has met the emperor's uncle. This is the drawing of Yilan Palace. My nephew has found someone to make it into a style that the emperor's uncle can see. Please take a look."
The rice paper was spread out, and Xue Qianyu raised his hand and rubbed it across the paper.
The layout of the house is exactly the same as when the mother-in-law was alive, and even some changes after the renovation have been restored.
After many years, the original blueprints of Yilan Palace have long since disappeared. Xue Chengche was able to make the blueprints, which shows that it took a lot of effort.
But outsiders only knew that he missed his mother and concubine, but they didn't know that as early as the day his mother and concubine was murdered, all that was left to him in Yilan Palace was disgust.
"You are interested."
The cold voice was devoid of any emotion.
The corners of Xue Chengche's raised lips sank, "Uncle, what do you think is inappropriate? My nephew can have someone change it. My father said that this palace was built for you, and we must still satisfy you."
Xue Qianyu raised his hand and put away the scroll, "I can just have a shelter from the wind in the palace. This person has passed away, so why should I look at the people of Lu Si just to feel sad."
Xue Chengche stared at his face for a few seconds, making sure that the words were not false and that he had indeed made a mistake, then he bowed his head.
"My nephew understands what the emperor means. I will visit you another day."
"Um."
…
Outside the gate of the palace, Lin Feiwan got out of the car with his head hanging down. When he looked up, he saw a carriage parked at the door.
This was the first time she saw an outside carriage outside the gate of Prince Yu's Mansion. She didn't know who was so bold.
"Ms. Lin, we meet again."
Just as he was wondering, a warm voice came.
Liu's brows furrowed indistinctly, and her tone was distant: "Your Highness, Third Highness, you should call me Royal Aunt."
Displeasure flashed through Xue Chengche's eyes. Sooner or later, he would make this woman crawl under him.
"Emperor... Auntie, if I had taken the initiative back then, maybe between you and me... Well, whatever, now that the deal is done, it's time for me to step out."
The handsome face looked over eagerly, his eyes full of helplessness and reluctance.
But hearing this "confession" made Lin Feiwan feel sick.
If she hadn't figured out other people's plans that night in the palace, Xue Chengche would have taken advantage of her.
And after he had a romantic relationship with Lin Ran, he immediately turned against him. Such a ruthless and unjust person, even if he has a face like Saipan'an, is still rubbish.
She snorted coldly, with a sarcastic smile on her lips.
"The Third Highness expressed his love to me at the gate of the palace. Have you ever thought about what the prince would think when he heard this?"
I didn't expect her to say such a thing. The smile froze on her face, then melted away after a moment.
"The Emperor's aunt misunderstood. I just expressed my feelings. I don't know what the Emperor's aunt likes. The Emperor's uncle asked me to come to the house another day. Then I can bring it to the Emperor's aunt, which can be regarded as apology for today's abruptness."
Still coming!
It was Xue Qianyu who took the initiative to make the appointment.
Lin Feiwan frowned even more tightly. Could it be that Xue Qianyu really wants to side with Xue Chengche?
"No need."
Leaving two words behind, she rushed to the kitchen angrily.
Because she was a little angry, she danced the kitchen knife with great force, which frightened Zhu Qun and others to stand far away, fearing that the princess would accidentally behead him.
Not far away, Zhui Feng narrowed his eyes as he took in all this.
The way the princess wields the sword is not without rules, but as if she has learned martial arts, and her martial arts skills are not low.
However, according to the information they received, the princess was clearly a sick and incompetent person before.
As long as she knows martial arts, she probably won't do anything like getting in and out of a dog hole.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up.
Does this mean that the princess is a natural talent for practicing martial arts?
Yes, that's definitely the case.
The iceberg's face suddenly curved, frightening the secret guard in the tree.
"Boss, are you okay?"
"Who knows, it's so scary."
"My little heart is pounding right now."
"Hiss...when did you become a sissy?"
"Don't you like it? Oh, you hate it."
…
Hidden in the dark, Zhuiyu's brows were twisted into the character "Chuan". Sure enough, men tend to have problems if they stay single for a long time.
Thinking of her three brothers, she just felt a headache.
The eldest brother Zhui Feng has always had an iceberg face, and his ability to reject people from thousands of miles away is not inferior to that of the prince.
The second brother, Zhuiyun, seems to be lacking in brains. He is sometimes smart and sometimes confused.
Third brother Zhui Yue puts all his passion into the battlefield and is an out-and-out martial arts fanatic.
The three of them look like bachelor material at first glance.
"well."
She sighed and returned her attention to Lin Feiwan.
At this time, she had prepared four dishes and one soup and brought them to the main courtyard.
After entering, she found that in addition to Zhuiyun, there was also an old man with white hair and kind eyes standing behind Xue Qianyu.
The old man looked at the meal she brought calmly and nodded slightly.
Zhuiyun received the signal and served the dishes with a smile as usual.
