Naturally, no one would admit it.

The guards of the crown prince's residence immediately separated him and escorted him to the carriage.

Chu Qingyao only felt a gaze land on her. She turned and saw a purple figure disappearing into the crowd. Her heart tensed. It was the Marquis of Ziyi.

She didn't hate or like this man.

It was he who had cruelly revealed the truth, allowing her to know that in Xuanyuan Zhi's heart, she was not as good as Su Ruyi. Maybe he was doing it for her good, but she didn't like the feeling of being led by the nose. That night, the water of the Nine Winding River was too cold and too cold. After that, she was saved by Xuanyuan Zhi to board the boat, and that kind of suffering felt even longer than before.

Therefore, she couldn't be grateful.

After getting on the carriage, he instructed the coachman to head straight back to the manor.

She told Hong Tan to boil a bucket of hot water and take a hot bath. When the temperature of the water cooled down, she shivered, as if she was still in the middle of the ice-cold river. She quickly jumped out to put on her clothes and wrapped herself in the blanket. Finally, she felt better.

In the middle of the night, she got out of bed and began to pack, picking up some of her usual clothes and putting them into the system. As for the item that Xuanyuan Zhi gave her, it was soft and thin, she was not prepared to take even a single piece of it.

The door suddenly opened. She thought it was Hong Tan, but didn't think that such a small commotion would be able to wake her up. Hong Tan? "

"Yaoyao, are you packing your things, preparing to elope with me?" The Marquis of Ziyi's body flashed in.

Chu Qingyao really didn't know when the Prince Zhi's Mansion's guards had been so relaxed. No one had noticed them coming in. Her face hardened. "What are you doing here?"

"Yaoyao, I'm sorry about what happened last time. It was my fault that you fell into the water." The Marquis of Zi Yi had an apologetic expression.

At that time, Chu Qingyao had been saved by Xuanyuan Zhi, but he had lost all his strength after chasing her for a while and had no choice but to give up. In the end, Yuwen Jingrui rushed over and saved him on the boat. He had been in the water for too long, and he lay in bed with a cold for several days.

After she was done, she quickly came back to find her. However, she found that the Prince Zhi's Mansion was heavily guarded, and couldn't come in at all. He didn't know why, but the guards at the mansion seemed to have suddenly decreased.

"I've received your apology. You can leave now." Chu Qingyao originally wanted to be friends with him, but the last time he colluded with Yuwen Jingrui, she almost died. How could she believe him?

"Yao Yao, listen to me. I also didn't think that Yuwen Jingrui would break his promise."

You just didn't expect that to happen, yet you gave her such an explanation?" A person who was able to erect a black market near Tianyu, how could he be so stupid? Yuwen JingRui was able to match his palm and do business with him. He could snatch an imperial concubine from Tianjun without any effort at all. If she fell into his hands, it would be a disgrace to Tianyu.

Even if she was completely humiliated and saved, the Tian Qiong Royal Family wouldn't give her a chance to live. Thinking about it carefully, she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

"Marquis of Ziyi, this is the end of our relationship. In the future, please don't bother me again." Her expression was cold, but there was also disgust in her eyes.

"Yaoyao, it's really not what you think. Even if we were robbed to the Falcon Kingdom, I would still use my life to protect you."

Chu Qingyao sneered, "My life is cheap, I can't accept you exchanging your life for mine."

The Marquis felt as if someone had blocked his throat, causing him to be unable to say a word. He had overthought the previous matter, but he had really only wanted to uncover Xuanyuan Zhi's identity, so that Yao Yao could clearly recognize reality and leave him as soon as possible.

As the sky gradually turned white, Chu Qingyao asked, "Are you still not leaving, waiting to be caught?"

The Marquis of Zi Yi felt that he had lost all of his strength and forced himself out of the Blue Luan Courtyard. The moment he came out, he was discovered by a guard.

He ran out of the Prince Zhi's Mansion in a panic and jumped into an abandoned well, breathing heavily in the darkness.

Very quickly, a guard ran into the Blue Luan Courtyard. "Esteemed wangfei, someone found an assassin outside the Blue Luan Courtyard. Are you alright?"

"How could there be an assassin?" Chu Qingyao was a little nervous, afraid that the assassin would notice. Hong Tan panicked and ran over from the outside, "Esteemed wangfei, this servant slept too long, please forgive me."

"No problem, I just woke up." She then said to the guard, "Carefully search through the Blue Luan Courtyard, and don't leave a single spot."

"This subordinate understands."

Just as he ate breakfast, Su Ruyi actually came to Blue Luan Courtyard. She looked around with a mocking expression. Compared to the Heavenly Calamity Academy, the courtyard was like a place for the servants to live.

"Chu Qingyao, you're really good at deceiving yourself. How dare you call yourself a wangfei when you're living in a place like this?" Her face was full of mockery. If she was in such a courtyard, she would not be able to stay for even a moment longer.

Chu Qingyao gently smiled, "It's just a place to settle down." So what if you live in the Celestial Pavilion? Even if one day, you become his wangfei, it will be my turn to not want it. "

Didn't you look down on me for saying that my place was poor? Once I leave, even if you become a wangfei, there won't be much to be surprised about. If you pick up something I don't want, how noble can you be?

Su Ruyi was instantly enraged, "Chu Qingyao, does brother Zhi treat you as his wangfei? The heavens know, the earth knows, I know! If you tell me honestly, are you stealing people behind the brother Zhi? "

"You can eat whatever you want, but you cannot say whatever you want. Su Ruyi, if you don't explain yourself today, don't think about leaving."

She could leave the Prince Zhi's Mansion, she could reject Xuanyuan Zhi, but she could not allow others to discredit her.

Su Ruyi sneered, "Is there even a need to explain? Last time, when the Prince went to chase him, he had a fight with that person, so I think it's definitely him this time. We'll wait for the guards to come back. If we can catch him, it'll be even better. Even if we can't, we'll be able to see his appearance. "

Chu Qingyao was secretly annoyed as she did not think that the Marquis of Ziyi would bring her so much trouble. Last time she knew that Xuanyuan Zhi had caught up, she didn't expect the two of them to actually fight each other.

She stood there coldly. What she had not done before, she would never admit. If Xuanyuan Zhi also wronged her, she could just leave.

"Why aren't you making excuses? "Confirmed?" Su Ruyi was all smiles, as long as he could prove the crime of adultery, Chu Qingyao would definitely scram.

"Su Ruyi, Blue Luan Courtyard does not welcome you." Even if he hooked up with a man, it wouldn't be her turn to punish him.

"brother Zhi's manor, I can naturally go wherever I want to. What right do you have to control me?" Su Ruyi raised his head and deliberately sat down on the chair.

Chu Qingyao's finger moved, and a fine strand of powder floated down. Su Ruyi quickly covered his stomach, as his face became even redder. Chu Qingyao smiled, "Ru Yi, what's wrong with you? Could it be a stomachache? "

Su Ruyi's stomach was in pain, her lower abdomen was agitated as though there was a blade in it, she could not even suppress it. The pain only lasted for a short while before he broke out in a cold sweat, wishing that he could immediately go to the latrine.

"Hong Tan, the Prince has promised to accompany this wangfei today. Go outside and welcome her."

"Yes, Princess."

When Su Ruyi heard that Xuanyuan Zhi was coming over, he did not want to leave, but if he did not leave now, he would lose all his face. He could only hold onto his stomach and stand up, saying fiercely: "Chu Qingyao, you actually drugged me, just you wait!"

"You have proof?" Chu Qingyao had an innocent look on her face.

After she left, she called for Hong Tan, she did not expect Xuanyuan Zhi to come along with her. Thinking of Su Ruyi's provocation, she unwillingly got up, "Your Highness."

"En, Chu Qingyao, prepare yourself to accompany me to the medical general meeting in a few days."

medical general meeting? From the name alone, she knew it was going to be a grand gathering for the medical community. A hint of desire appeared in her eyes. She really wanted to experience the medical skills of this world. His expression changed, "Your Highness, can anyone from medical general meeting go?"

Xuanyuan Zhi looked over, "medical general meeting meets once every year, and it is held in medical Sect. The royal families will send people there, but the rest are people from the medical field and medicine merchants. Ordinary citizens do not have the qualifications to do so. " These words destroyed Chu Qingyao's original thought. It seemed like she would have to postpone her departure.

If he missed this opportunity, then it would be difficult for him to have a chance in the future. She nodded. "Do I need anything?"

"No need."

The room was silent, as if the two of them had nothing to say. Xuanyuan Zhi looked at Chu Qingyao and saw that her gaze was fixated on empty space. Although her face was respectful, her thoughts were definitely not on him. He said in a slightly displeased manner, "Stay away from the Marquis in the future, lest you get sold by him and have to help him count the money."

Chu Qingyao acknowledged but still did not look at him. She didn't want to give herself any more hope, lest she become even more disappointed. She didn't want to experience that despair again.

"Chu Qingyao, what kind of bad thing have you done that you wouldn't dare to look at me?" Seeing that she did not respond to his words and had been ignoring him, Xuanyuan Zhi became angry.

Chu Qingyao indifferently raised her head, her eyes calm, "Prince is overthinking things. Chu Qingyao has always had a clear conscience when it comes to doing things."

Xuanyuan Zhi felt that his punch had landed on empty space, and his expression became even worse, as he questioned, "What on earth do you care about?" Chu Qingyao gently smiled, smiling so much that her heart ached. He actually didn't know why, it seemed like she was just being sentimental.

She smiled, laughed lightly, laughed until her mind was shattered, and said, "If there is nothing else, please go back, your highness!"

She had clearly already decided to cut him in two, so why did her heart still hurt!

Xuanyuan Zhi stared at her a few times, then walked out filled with anger. He had never been so patient with a woman before, and she was even flirting with him. Chu Qingyao, isn't this duke too used to you?

In the evening, Su Ruyi was helped in by a servant girl. Her face was pale, her entire body leaning on the servant girl, pointing weakly at Chu Qingyao, "You liar, brother Zhi did not come."

Only now did Chu Qingyao remember what she had said this morning. With a face full of shame, she smiled, "Your Highness is here!" He just had something to do and left again. "Could it be that you, as a lady, have been guarding outside the entire time? How can you not see him?"

Su Ruyi thought that Chu Qingyao was ridiculing her, "If you dare try to play tricks with me, I'll kill you."

Chu Qingyao did not care at all. Since Xuanyuan Zhi had decided to bring her to the medical general meeting, he would naturally take care of her safety. After the meeting, the sky was far away. It would be hard for them to meet each other again in this life.

"I'll wait." There was a trace of viciousness in her pure eyes. She wasn't an easy person to deal with.
