Time travel is risky, and love requires caution

Ling Qiqi was startled and felt a little unhappy, but she did not stop and continued to wipe her hands on the little black horse's mane.

The person in the shadows ran over, pulled Ling Qiqi's hand off, and pushed her aside.

Ling Qiqi couldn't stand and sat down on the ground.

Ling Qiqi had been a princess for several years, and no one had ever treated her like this. She instantly became furious and shouted:

"Who are you?"

Unexpectedly, her punch hit Cotton, who simply ignored her and was busy tidying up the little black horse's mane that was messed up by her.

Ling Qiqi then looked around.

The boy looked shorter than her, with a thin figure but well dressed. He must be a royal relative who could enter and leave the palace, but she didn't know which one could enter and leave the imperial garden at will. Ling Qiqi didn't have much friendship with the people in the harem, and she couldn't identify the ministers in the court. She couldn't figure out who this guy was.

Love whoever you want, Ling Qiqi was too lazy to use her brain. She was a grown-up soul, and she couldn't afford to be on the same level as a naughty kid. It wasn't that she was broad-minded, but mainly because she had sneaked here, so she had to slip away before alerting others.

Ling Qiqi acted decisively. She quickly got up, brushed off the dirt on her hands and body, and without caring about the pain in her butt, turned around and ran outside.

When she ran to the corner, she almost bumped into the person who was coming towards her. The person on the opposite side was protected by others, but Ling Qiqi was pushed away hard, and ended up hitting her again and fell hard on her butt.

Ling Qiqi was injured even more and grimaced in pain. Before she could recover, an angry voice came from the other side:

"How dare you! Come on, slap me in the face."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone walked over quickly and slapped Ling Qiqi in the face without saying a word.

Ling Qiqi was stunned by the slap. She sat on the ground in astonishment and looked at the arrogant group of girls opposite her.

The girl in the lead was glaring at her arrogantly and angrily, while the two or three girls behind her all had a look on their faces that showed they were there to enjoy the fun.

Before Ling Qiqi could fully come to her senses, she heard the leading girl say to the palace maid next to her:

"Who told you to stop? Keep fighting."

Ling Qiqi finally came to her senses and thought: I gave you face, right?

She didn't care which hurt more, her butt or her face, and she jumped up to avoid the slap from the palace maid.

The palace maid was not willing to let Ling Qiqi go and chased after her to beat her. Ling Qiqi simply turned around and ran towards the stable, dodging left and right, jumping up and down, looking very funny.

The girls who were watching the fun laughed out loud, but the girl in the lead became even angrier and called two more palace maids to help.

Ling Qiqi was not a pushover at all. She calculated as she ran: the other side had more people and more power. Although she was alone, there were many horses in the stable.

Thinking of this, she no longer hid, but quickly opened the horse fence closest to her. After entering, she kicked the pony's butt without thinking.

The pony felt pain, neighed, and ran out in a hurry.

Ling Qiqi felt that the horse's power was probably not enough, so she opened the horse fence and kicked the horse's butt one by one according to her practice.

When it was her turn to release the little black horse, Ling Qiqi was stopped by the little boy.

I was so engrossed just now that I forgot about him.

At this time, the stable was already in chaos, with people shouting, horses neighing, and people and horses falling to the ground.

Ling Qiqi looked back and was quite satisfied with the result. She thought that the black sheep like Little Black Horse was not a big deal, so she retired without hesitation.

Just as she was about to take advantage of the chaos to escape, she noticed that the little boy was staring blankly at her "crime" scene. Ling Qiqi didn't say a word and pulled him out of the stable in one breath.

After running for a while in a roundabout way, until they could no longer hear the noise from the stable, Ling Qiqi let go of the little boy's hand when she saw that no one was chasing them.

Ling Qiqi bent over, supported her knees with her hands, and gasped for breath. She gasped for breath until she was so happy that she couldn't straighten her back.

"What are you laughing at?" asked the little boy.

"Isn't it funny? Didn't you see how embarrassed they were just now? Hahahaha..."

The little boy rolled his eyes at her.

Ling Qiqi thought this little brat was too ignorant and was about to part ways with him, but she didn't expect the little brat to ask her again:

"Why are you pulling me away?"

"If I don't pull you along, I'll carry you on my back!"

The little brat was speechless for a moment. He felt that she answered, but didn't.

Ling Qiqi felt sorry for the little kid who looked like he was constipated, so she kindly explained:

"I can tell from the first glance that those people are not easy to deal with. If I run away, what if they take it out on you? I don't want to implicate you."

"You know they are not easy to mess with, but you still mess with them."

"Is that what I call provoking them? I'm just protecting myself, okay?"

"Why are you dragging me into this to protect yourself?"

"Such a big commotion will surely attract a lot of people. You came here secretly to see Xiao Ma, and you don't have any followers with you. If you are caught in the act, you will definitely be punished."

"Why are you helping me?" The little brat suddenly looked very defensive.

"Why? No reason."

"It can't be for no reason."

"That's probably because I'm too kind."

"Tell me, how do you want me to repay you?"

“That’s what I really said.”

"Hmph, go ahead." The little brat looked as if it was nothing special.

"Just pretend we've never met. If you're really worried about owing me a favor, just go back and walk into my trap. Bye."

Ling Qiqi said and turned away.

The little kid stood there looking at her back, not reacting for a long time.

Ling Qiqi trotted back to De Shou Palace, then went back to her room without a trace, locked herself up, and refused to be disturbed. Yu'er and the wet nurse asked for a long time outside the door, but she sent them away.

In fact, Ling Qiqi was on her way back just now when she had a flash of inspiration and suddenly remembered who those girls were, her princess sisters.

Ling Qiqi is a patient with half face blindness. The reason why it is half is that she can remember some faces but not others.

There are two types of people who can be remembered: one is those whom you see every day and cannot forget, and the other is those whom you rarely see but have to remember, otherwise it may cause financial loss or even loss of life.

The other half are the ones she can’t remember, which can also be divided into two categories: one is the ones she doesn’t think are necessary to remember, but unfortunately, there are quite a lot of things she thinks are unnecessary to remember, and the other is the ones she wants to remember but always can’t remember.

The group of people I met today belong to the last category.

Ling Qiqi would attend one or two palace family banquets with the Empress Dowager every year. She had seen her gorgeous princess sisters at the banquets. Although she was deeply impressed by their eagerness to show off their talents and beauties, Ling Qiqi felt that they all looked similar, except for their heights, weights and body shapes, so she often confused them.

The arrogant girl who was the leader just now was the fifth princess. She was also stunned by the slap just now, so she didn't remember it for a while.

The Fifth Princess is the legitimate daughter of the Queen. She often accompanies the Queen and sometimes comes to Deoksugung with the Queen to visit the Queen Mother. The Queen only gave birth to such a daughter, so she loves her very much. In addition, because of her status as a legitimate daughter, people in the palace are also afraid of the Fifth Princess, so she has developed an arrogant and spoiled personality. The Fifth Princess has completely inherited the shortcomings of her parents' appearance. She looks ordinary and has no memorable points. She is definitely the kind of person who can't be found in a crowd and can't be remembered after seeing her. However, every time the Fifth Princess is arrogant, she occasionally reveals a hostile look towards Ling Qiqi, which makes Ling Qiqi a little unhappy. It is precisely because of that familiar look that Ling Qiqi can identify with her.

Ling Qiqi felt that today's matter might be a bit troublesome.
