Chapter 175 The player in the game
The girl's sudden calm tone made Chu Yuanli's uneasy and cold heart suddenly feel a little warmer and more hopeful. He looked at her shining little face in a daze.
With a bit of credit in mind, he said: "Yan Xiwei said she could help me... She was very cautious and didn't say how or what she was going to do.
Just let me wait for her news..." Chu Yuanli said this, and couldn't help but look embarrassed, and then said: "I didn't express my opinion at that time, and she probably just thought I agreed..."
Yan Qingning felt like she was listening to nothing. Looking at Chu Yuanli's eyes that were waiting for her to be moved, she almost sneered. He treated her as a naive girl.
Chu Yuanli waited for a moment, but she didn't say anything. His face was wooden, so he could only continue, "Don't worry, Ning'er. I will never let that vicious woman Yan Xiwei hurt you again. Don't be afraid..."
Yan Qingning: “…”
At this moment, Yuqi from below hurried up and said, "Master, something bad has happened. Someone is coming..."
Yan Qingning's face changed when he heard this and he stood up immediately.
I looked out through the gap in the floor-to-ceiling screen, but because there was still some distance, I couldn't tell who was who. The only thing I could tell was that it was a man.
Yan Qingning looked at the color of the clothes and confirmed that it was not Chu Beiqing, and she felt a little relieved.
"Ning'er, you stay here. I'll go out and send them away."
Chu Yuanli, who followed over, squinted his eyes and saw the man coming, and immediately spoke in a hurry.
Yan Qingning turned his head suddenly, unable to bear it any longer, and sneered, "Send him away? Ha, how do you plan to send him away? This place is so remote, and he came here with a clear goal. Do you think he can be sent away easily?"
She couldn't help but think that Chu Yuanli did it on purpose!
Otherwise, if they really wanted to keep it secret, it wouldn't have come so quickly.
“Ning’er, Ning’er, don’t worry…” Chu Yuanli’s heart was beating fast, and he said in a panic, “Don’t get me wrong, I’m not…”
"Did I misunderstand?" Yan Qingning sneered, "Prince Rui threatened me to come here. If it were His Royal Highness Prince Rui, what would he think in this situation?"
Chu Yuanli hurriedly stepped forward: "Ning'er, please believe me, I, I really just want to tell you this news, I'm afraid you will be tricked by others..."
Of course, he also had his own selfish motives. He wanted to see her...
But he didn't dare say such words now.
"You wanted to remind me in many ways, but you chose the way that the other party wanted the most. King Rui, are you quibbling, or are you trying to trick me?"
"Ning'er, no, I really didn't think that much, I just wanted to see you..." Chu Yuanli had to speak out his selfish thoughts, but he was a little at a loss, and said hesitantly: "Believe me..."
"Once the other party gives you the silver bracelet, it means the game has already begun.
The most ridiculous thing is that even though you knew it was a trap, you still forced me into it in this way. Chu Yuanli, how can I believe that you are not in collusion with Yan Xiwei?
Chu Yuanli, I don't believe you will really lose your mind over this!"
There was a glimmer in Chu Yuanli's eyes. How could Ning'er become so shrewd?
"Forget it. Now, whether I believe it or not is not that important." Yan Qingning suddenly didn't want to argue with him anymore.
"Ning'er, I'm sorry..." Chu Yuanli looked a little unhappy: "I underestimated the other party's insidiousness.
I was too concerned and confused, and I didn't expect that after the other party gave me something, there would be such a simple and despicable back-up plan, and I didn't even know that I was calculated into it. "
"But, Ning'er, don't worry, I will never implicate you..." Chu Yuanli turned around and left resolutely: "No matter who comes here today, don't even think about setting foot in the Lanchun Pavilion."
"and many more!"
Although Yan Qingning was angry, her mind was working fast.
Of course I have already thought of a way to escape.
At worst, she could still escape by water.
But that was a last resort!
But if Chu Yuanli went out to stop them now, that would be a clear sign of trying to cover up the truth.
Since the other party has come, it is inevitable that she cannot be stopped. If the other party breaks in and sees her, it will prove that there is something fishy.
Therefore, no matter whether Chu Yuanli was really confused and thoughtless, Yan Qingning no longer wanted to argue with Chu Yuanli.
We can only wait and see what happens.
Chu Yuanli, who was about to go out, suddenly heard her voice. His somewhat gloomy eyes instantly brightened up. He felt more hopeful in his heart and looked at her eagerly.
While he felt sad, he also hated Princess He'an and her daughter.
Wouldn't it be better to just keep making the mistake?
Why did they cause so much trouble? They changed more than just Ning'er's fate.
If it weren't for them, Ning'er wouldn't be like this.
"Where is Yier?" Yan Qingning asked calmly, while glancing at the figure that was getting closer and closer on the corridor.
Now that she's here, there's no reason for her to return empty-handed.
"I don't know..." Chu Yuanli looked embarrassed, "The person who gave me the bracelet only said that you knew him..."
After Yan Qingning heard this, her eyes were calm. She was no longer surprised.
Chu Yuanli felt even more uncomfortable when he was looked at by her calm gaze. He couldn't tell whether she believed it or not. He looked away and suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Old Eight?"
Chu Yuanli recognized the person immediately and frowned slightly, "What is Chu Rongyue doing here?"
Yan Qingning had just seen clearly who the person was, but she didn't respond. Now she didn't believe Chu Yuanli at all, and a cold light appeared in her eyes.
Soon, the sound of someone coming up the stairs was heard.
Yan Qingning walked out of the floor-to-ceiling screen, wanting to hear Chu Rongyue's explanation.
Seeing her like this, Chu Yuanli opened his mouth to say something, but in the end, he said nothing. He just sighed helplessly and followed her out.
"Yan Qingning finally found you..." Chu Rongyue went upstairs and saw a familiar person at a glance, and blurted out this sentence.
But then he saw Chu Yuanli, "Seventh Brother, why are you here..."
Chu Rongyue's eyes could not help but fall on the floor-to-ceiling screen of the enclosure. He was a little surprised, "You guys..."
It is inevitable that some thoughts will wander in my mind.
It is inevitable that people would think too much when a man and a woman are alone in such a remote place and covered up like this.
Chu Yuanli glanced at Yan Qingning subconsciously, and then hurriedly explained, "Old Eight, don't let your imagination run wild. The weather is too hot, so I asked someone to put an ice basin in to prevent the cool air from dissipating too quickly..."
Yan Qingning didn't bother to look at Chu Yuanli's guilty face, and went straight to the point without any nonsense, "What are you doing here? Are you here to catch someone cheating?"
Chu Rongyue: “…”
Then he came back to his senses and said hurriedly: "Don't make trouble, I'm here to tell you something. Let's go, Concubine Shu and others are already coming this way!"
This cannot be explained away by the fact that they were a single man and a single woman with their clothes intact and had done nothing.
A rumor that she had an affair with a man outside her family was enough to get her thrown into prison, let alone in the palace.
Yan Qingning was a little surprised. She really didn't expect that Concubine Shu was also in this game!
She couldn't help but think, Concubine Shu is the mother of Prince Qi, could it be that Prince Qi was also involved in this?
