The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Wei Bai's expression froze instantly, and he didn't know how to react for a moment.

Du Ziheng looked at his hand that was bitten by Wei Bai and muttered, "Wei Bai, you are so cruel. I was trying to help you, but you treated me like this."

He pushed Wei Bai, who was stunned.

The servants and guards in the courtyard looked at each other, and silently worried for Wei Bai.

At the gate of Qichiyuan, the girl in green came over and smiled at everyone.

He glanced at Du Ziheng and nodded slightly to greet him. Du Ziheng nodded and smiled.

Fu Qian stood in front of the dazed Wei Bai, smiled generously and greeted him politely.

"Wei Bo."

"Uh...Fu, Fu Qian." Wei Bai almost bit off his tongue when he called out that name.

Fu Qian smiled, and there was no difference between her pretty face and usual one.

After glancing around and not finding the person he was looking for, he continued, "Wei Bai, Du Ziheng, I'm here to get the princess's secret medicine from the Herb Hall. I'll go find the princess first."

"You go. But the princess is not in the courtyard now. She went to the conference room." Du Ziheng responded first.

Fu Qian said "Oh", and Chunlan, who had been watching anxiously from the corner, hurried over and said, "Fu Qian, the princess has left the medicine from the Herb Hall in the house, come with me to get it."

Fu Qian smiled cheerfully, turned around and followed Chunlan.

When Wei Bai saw Fu Qian’s departing back, his face turned from white to red, and then to blue.

He took a few quick steps and caught up with him.

"Fu, Fu Qian, that's not what I meant."

"Hmm?" Fu Qian turned around, a little confused. "Why do you say that? What do you mean by that?"

Wei Bo pursed his lips slightly: "You should have heard what I said in the yard just now, right?"

Fu Qian did not answer this question, and said directly: "Wei Bai, I don't mind. Everyone has the freedom of expression."

When Wei Bai heard this, he knew that Fu Qian had heard his angry words just now.

"Fu Qian, I am not..."

"Wei Bai, you don't have to explain. I told you, I don't mind." Fu Qian returned to his usual smiling face and said calmly, "Not only do I not mind, I also understand."

She showed an apologetic expression, and her tone changed, apologetically: "Wei Bo, I didn't know that my coming here caused you trouble. In fact, you don't have to force yourself. If you don't want to teach others, you don't have to teach. I hope you can act according to your own heart, instead of speaking and doing things against your heart."

Du Ziheng sighed in his heart: Fu Qian is really good, and he even said such generous words to Wei Bai.

Fu Qian looked at Wei Bai, thought for a moment, and added, "I wanted to say goodbye to you when I was at your house that day, but you said you were happy to teach me and it had nothing to do with the punishment imposed on you by the prince and princess. In fact, you didn't have to do that. I, Fu Qian, really don't want to trouble anyone."

"No, it's not a problem." Wei Bo said firmly, his cheeks and earlobes flushed, not sure whether it was because of embarrassment or anger.

"It's okay." Fu Qian smiled again, with her hands on her hips, like a female warrior. "I am the most heartless person. No matter what others say about me, I won't get angry. The premise is that those people are my friends and family."

"Wei Bai, you and I are both from the Night King's Palace. How could I have a problem with you because of some trivial matters?"

Wei Bai wanted to say something more, but he didn't know how to explain.

Didn't he say that to Fu Qian on purpose? But the words had already been spoken, so how could he still distinguish between "on purpose" and "not on purpose"?

Or did he not really want to say that he was dissatisfied with Fu Qian? Then could his intense performance just now not be "real" or "fake"?

Wei Bo couldn't guess what Fu Qian was thinking. Was this girl really open-minded and didn't mind what he said? Or was she holding a grudge in her heart but pretending to be indifferent?

Just like Wei Bai's conflicted thoughts, Du Ziheng couldn't figure out what Fu Qian was thinking at this time.

The two brothers were puzzled: It is too difficult for them to understand and guess what a woman is thinking!

A woman's heart, a needle under the sea.

Fu Qian nodded to the two brothers and said, "I have something else to do. I'll leave first."

Fu Qian didn't even turn around. Chunlan, who was leading the way, nodded slightly to Wei Bai and Du Ziheng, revealing a somewhat unhappy smile, and then trotted to catch up with Fu Qian. Why did she feel like she was caught in the middle between Wei Bai and Fu Qian? For a moment, she felt the same embarrassment as before, caught between the prince and the princess!

Woohoo, princess, why aren't you here? You just missed a scene with a weird atmosphere!

Wei Bai stood there and Du Ziheng patted his shoulder.

"Tsk tsk tsk, you're always so mean, and now you scolded someone in front of him. This is really inhumane!"

"I'm a jerk..." Wei Bo replied sullenly. This feeling was a bit strange, just like the awkward feeling of saying bad things about someone behind their back but being caught red-handed.

But at this moment, he felt not only embarrassed, but also mixed with other emotions. Normally, if he criticized or scolded someone, he would not care whether those people were present or not, or whether they had any reaction.

But now, Fu Qian heard a lot of words from him that were full of strong emotions, which made him feel indescribably depressed.

After a while, Wei Bai, after pondering for a while, tried his best to figure out a clue.

Perhaps, those he scolded before were all disgusting villains and stupid fools, and those people really deserved to be scolded. But Fu Qian was different. Fu Qian was a young girl who had not experienced the world, and she was not one of those who should be scolded harshly. Fu Qian was also from the Night Palace, and was his apprentice. He should not have said that about Fu Qian.

In short, maybe it was because Fu Qian was innocent that he felt like his heart was being eaten by ants and he just couldn't feel comfortable at all!

After Fu Qian got the medicine, when he came to the yard again, Wei Bai and Du Ziheng were no longer there.

Seeing Fu Qian was slightly stunned, Chunlan said, "Fu Qian, the princess is in the meeting room, do you want to go and see her?"

"Good. It's a good opportunity to meet the princess."

Chunlan was thoughtful and thought of another point to add: "Master Wei Bai has news to report to the princess today. He and Doctor Du should be in the meeting room now."

"Forget it then." Fu Qian shook his head. "The princess and the others are busy with important matters, so I won't bother them. I'd better send these medicines to the herbal hall as soon as possible."

Chunlan nodded, and after sending Fu Qian away, she quietly told Yun Mujiu about Fu Qian's situation.

Yun Mujiu and Wei Bai had already understood the situation of the Jing family clearly. Before Wei Bai came to the hall, he had already learned about what happened in the courtyard from other people in Qichiyuan.

At this moment, she heard about Fu Qian's situation again, and a look of helplessness flashed across her eyes.

Wei Bo really went too far. He usually didn't control his words, and sure enough, something went wrong at the critical moment.

She could foresee that with Fu Qian's stubborn personality, which was exactly the same as Dr. Fu's, it would be very difficult for Wei Bo to make up for Fu Qian's hurt heart in the future!

...

"It's too difficult. Why is it so difficult to investigate a person?" Ling Xingmu looked at his subordinates dissatisfiedly, "Didn't I ask you to investigate Princess Ji Ling? How come you only found such little information!"

Ever since he had met Princess Ji Ling twice, he had wanted to find out about her.

I just didn't expect that the investigation hadn't been thorough for several days. Was it because Princess Ji Ling was too low-key, or was Princess Ji Ling trying to keep a low profile, or was there someone helping Princess Ji Ling to block others' inquiries?
