The Favored Concubine: The Doting Prince

Many envoys gathered in the post house to discuss today's events.

There are many different opinions. Some say that it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who ordered Zhou Qi to do it.

Some people said that Zhou Qi was sent by the Regent to intimidate the Crown Prince. But in the end, they would blame Xing Qian for being too weak and too kind, and not suitable for this position.

After the banquet was over, Xing Qian saw Yuan Yan following the carriage from the Third Prince's Palace.

Xing Qian understood that Yuan Yan was most likely going back to live with her brother, and it was not easy for her to return to Chenliang, so why would she stay with them in the inn?

So he got on the carriage alone, and when he arrived at the inn, the others just bowed perfunctorily and went back to their rooms.

Xing Qian had been sitting in his room for a while, and seeing that the moonlight was beautiful tonight, he thought of going out for a walk.

But when I went out, I found that those people were talking and laughing, but they fell silent when they saw me.

Feeling like a nuisance, he closed the door and sat back down.

He drank a sip of tea and lay on the bed in a daze, also thinking about what happened today.

Recalling every bit of communication between Zhou Qi and me, I really don't know where the problem started.

Of course I felt betrayed. I finally trusted someone, but it turned out to be a fake.

He had been feeling uneasy since he came here. It was like the first time he had handled such a big thing, and he had felt that Zhou Qi was reliable, but now he was like thunder.

Xing Qian hugged the quilt and buried his face in it, feeling a little aggrieved and not knowing what to do.

And that princess seemed to dislike herself, and she herself was disliked.

What's wrong?

At this time, they heard someone knocking on the door outside, and it was knocking very urgently. Xing Qian thought that something had happened to the delegation, so he ran to open the door without even putting on his shoes.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw two bottles of wine, followed by Yuan Yan's heartless smile.

"What are you doing? Let me show you some of Chen Liang's fine wine." Yuan Yan pushed Xing Qian aside and sat down with the bottle of wine in her hand.

Today I found out that he not only brought wine, but also food, and he just spread the food on the table.

He took out two more cups from the table, and the aroma of wine filled the air, dispelling all worries.

While Xing Qian was still in a daze, Yuan Yan had already torn up the chicken leg and started putting it into her mouth.

You, didn't you go to the Third Prince's house?"

"I followed my brother because their house was on the way. There is a really good restaurant in Chenliang, and I wanted to buy some wine along the way. Oh, I wanted to take you with me, but they left in a hurry, so I went with them. It's my fault. I shouldn't have told you.

Even if I go to his house, I have to take you with me. How can I leave you here alone? You are such a fool. Am I that kind of person?

Come and sit down. I see you haven’t eaten anything tonight. Is that Zhou guy sick?

Oh, I'll just chop him up when I get back."

Yuan Yan stood up and grabbed Xing Qian with her greasy hands, asked him to sit opposite her, and closed the door.

He threw off his shoes, stepped on the stool, and started eating.

He chattered non-stop and became noisy, warming up the whole room.

Xing Qian took the chicken he handed over and stuffed it into his mouth. The moment it entered his mouth, for some reason, his nose felt sore and his eyes turned red. He always wanted to cry.

He didn't know how he would spend the night if Yuan Yan didn't come back. He would probably cry in his quilt. But crying would make his eyes swollen. Tomorrow, he would see others talking about him.

He didn't dare to cry and spent the whole night feeling guilty.

But now that Yuan Yan is back, everything seems different.

"Don't worry, I know how to do all these things. Don't think that I only eat and hang out with beautiful women and men every day.

Do you know what positions the people I hang out with hold in their original countries?

I have already inquired about your mission and I guarantee that nothing will go wrong.

And even if something goes wrong, so what? I am here in Chenliang. Even if I can't do it, I still have my brother the crown prince and my brother. Even if they don't work well, the relationship between the Seventh Brother and me is not bad, don't worry.

Eat when you’re supposed to, drink when you’re supposed to, and just think of it as the country paying for you to come here to have fun.

Then tell me what you think of my sister?

As for me, after asking around, it seems that my sister has a lover, but he is definitely not as outstanding as you. My sister, although she has a bit of a bad temper, she is really pretty.

But there is no problem with her character, she is really a nice person with a kind heart.

I don't mind calling you brother-in-law.

But if you don't like it and can't come forward, I can negotiate for you."

Xing Qian raised his head and drank a glass of wine. Yuan Yan was always open-minded and blurted out everything.

He doesn't look like that kind of person. He looks a bit feminine, even delicate.

If he were placed in Wei State, he would definitely be a handsome man admired by the whole country.

But he was carefree and manly. He would put all the things that Xing Qian was worried about and not worried about on the table.

He will help you figure out what he can help you with, what he can't help you with, and what you don't need to care about.

If there is always a thick fog in Xing Qian's heart, then Yuan Yan is the wind that blows away the fog.

He is not a cigarette, he is free and clear, Xing Qian always feels this way.

But perhaps to others he is like smoke, impenetrable, floating, and far away, dispersing in the wind.

After a few drinks, all the worries and sorrows of the past few days, as well as all the thoughts in my mind just now, disappeared.

Xing Qian also took off his shoes and pushed open the window.

Your Chenliang is really a wonderful place, and the people are wonderful too.

"Right? Right? I said my sister is beautiful." Yuan Yan was still praising Yuan Ling'er foolishly, but she didn't know that Xing Qian was just looking at her.

"Why do you like your prince brother so much? It seems like he is closer to you than your own brother." Yuan Yan seemed to become obedient when Yuan Yi was mentioned.

He smiled shyly. "My brother, the prince, saved my life. I was naughty at that time, and my brother was too obedient. Maybe he also knew that mother didn't like us for some reason.

It may be that the teacher or the old nanny said that as long as he studied well, his mother would be happy. So my third brother studied hard at that time.

I think he has become stupid.

No matter the cold winter or the hot summer, he never stopped and his academic performance was always the best, but I didn’t see his mother being happy at all?

But he was stubborn and thought that he had done something wrong. So he had no time to play with me. My mother was indifferent to me, and my father was lukewarm to me. The old maids were also like that.

As long as you eat, drink, defecate and urinate, and don’t be hungry, cold or sick, that’s all.

But I was annoyed by their meddling, so I went out to play by myself.

I ran to a deserted place and ended up falling into the water.

I thought I was going to die but someone jumped down and saved me. It was my sick, weak brother.

I don't know him well, he doesn't like to talk, and my father is always around him. We kids all have problems with him.

But he tried desperately to pull me to the shore, but he was so thin that he couldn't pull me.

But I can feel his desire to save me.

What I shouted at him was, "Let me go, otherwise we will both die."

I knew he could swim up by himself, but it was impossible for him to take me with him.

But do you know what he said? " Yuan Yan's face was still filled with a happy and warm smile.

"Brother Prince said, if I can't save you, then you should die with me.

I wouldn't be scared if it was like this. I wouldn't be lonely on the road. I thought he was stupid at the time. What was he doing?

One death is not enough, another must die. But I don't know why, maybe I'm too selfish, when I know he really wants to accompany me, I'm not so scared anymore.

Later, maybe it was the palace maids or someone else who rescued us. At that time, I was no longer conscious.

It's just that I'm fine after taking a few doses of medicine. But Yuan Yi almost died.

That’s also when I realized he wasn’t doing well.

When I went there, I found that the medicine was cold and there was no one to take care of him. He was curled up in bed with a thin blanket, looking like he was about to die.

That's why I became a proton for him. But God has his own plans. That's why I met you, right?

In fact, all the brothers knew the secret at that time.

The Crown Prince is not living a good life, not as glorious as he seems.

But they all kept it a secret, as if they didn't dare to make it public. At most, they would go to the East Palace to sit for a while. They also knew that they were there, so the palace servants didn't dare to neglect them.

Sometimes everyone did their own thing. When the crown prince studied, the third and fourth brothers would also study with him.

My sister sat there and embroidered what the maids had taught her, then threw it aside and went out to practice sword.

Later, Little Seven was willing to go over there too. He always had a stern face and was learning the new martial arts he had just learned in the yard.

We all felt that we were unfamiliar with each other, yet we all gathered in the East Palace without any prior arrangement.

But when it got dark and the palace gates were about to be locked, we left one by one, watching the prince alone watching us go.

Maybe it was peaceful and happy then.

But the good times didn't last long, as the third and fourth brothers' studies became more demanding and they had to memorize more things, especially the fourth brother.

When he grew up, he began to have many other thoughts, such as making friends with some ministers.

I didn’t have time to go to the East Palace, and I later became a hostage and left.

The seventh brother joined the army and often lived and ate with them in the barracks.

Only my fifth sister can occasionally accompany him. But fortunately, the prince has found someone who will not leave him even when the palace gates are locked at night. It's great."

Yuan Yan poured another glass of wine into his mouth, then swayed and fell asleep on the bed.

Yuan Yan always has a low alcohol tolerance, but he always drinks to the end and falls asleep after drinking.

Only in this way can he sleep soundly and well. Xing Qian helped Yuan Yan take off her coat and covered her with a quilt as usual.

He got up and closed the window, and then he could sleep peacefully.
