The stunning beauty of Qing Dynasty

With the information Xie Hongyu got from Duan Ruwei, Qingyin's attacks on Lin Bichen became more and more direct.

She never showed mercy to her enemies.

Both she and Xie Hongyu were born superiors.

When the court was dismissed, Duan Ruyi stopped her.

Qingyin didn't want to pay attention to him and was ready to leave.

"I know you are dealing with Lin Bichen."

But Duan Ruyi's words made her pause.

Looking at the young man who stopped, Duan Ruyi smiled confidently.

He whispered, "So I'll wait for you in Room 1 of Jingdong Tianxianglou."

Looking at Duan Ruyi who seemed to have already won the battle and was certain that she would come back, Qingyin suddenly thought of the cold and handsome nobleman at the flower-viewing banquet that day, who looked indifferent to the person struggling in the water.

Qingyin sometimes wondered why these people were so confident. They were just from better backgrounds and had lower abilities, so why did they always look down on others like a superior treating an inferior?

Qingyin couldn't figure it out and could only attribute it to the incomplete development of the brains of these people.

Qingyin didn't even look at him and turned away again.

Duan Ruyi thought she agreed and walked out happily.

……

Duan Ruyi waited in Tianxiang Tower for an entire afternoon, but no one showed up until dark, and his face darkened completely.

"Shit! He's playing tricks on me."

The servant didn't dare to look at his master's extremely ugly face, and asked cautiously: "Then Master, do you still want to wait?"

"What are you waiting for? Are you waiting for people to know that I, the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, was stood up the whole afternoon?"

"Fuck, go back."

The servant didn't dare to say anything and could only nod cautiously to respond to his master.

Qingyin, who was being missed, also met Jiamin who "happened" to meet her several times.

Qingyin looked at the shy and nervous girl in front of her, feeling helpless.

"We meet again, miss."

"Thank you, thank you, young master." Jiamin wanted to control her nervousness, but the state she had practiced in the palace had no effect in front of Qingyin, and she returned to her previous nervous state.

After trying many times, the girl still couldn't speak coherently and lowered her head in frustration.

Seeing the girl openly falling in love with her, Qingyin knew it wasn't the first time that someone of the same sex fell in love with her. But she was dressed as a man after all, and the girl mistook her for a man. This was a deception.

Qingyin also calmed down his temper which wanted to subconsciously comfort the girl, and his expression became gentle yet distant.

"Miss, don't worry about what happened before. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Seeing Xie Yin's expression suddenly become cold, the girl's eyes turned red, but this was normal. If it weren't for the emperor, she would never have the possibility of having anything to do with him.

It’s okay, Jiamin, you work hard to make Xie Lang like you more.

Jiamin nervously stuffed the tribute snacks she brought from the palace into Qingyin's arms.

The girl bit her lip with red eyes and said, "These are for Master Xie. If Master Xie doesn't want them, just throw them away."

Looking at the jealous girl, Qingyin sighed helplessly, and finally took the basket of precious snacks.

Forget it, I’ll try to persuade him slowly.

—

On the second floor of the teahouse, the young man in a fancy gown who had watched the entire process raised his eyebrows with interest, "Isn't this his little sister who is most favored by the Emperor?"

"Why are you so sad? You even sent people snacks. Chen Feng, go check and find out which handsome man made our little princess fall in love?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The man chuckled. Because of the angle, he couldn't see Qingyin's face, but his own sister saw it clearly.

Qingyin returned to the mansion and had no idea that she had attracted the attention of a prince. She was still explaining the origin of this snack under Xie Hongyu's teasing gaze.

Qing Yin looked at Xie Hongyu helplessly: "This little girl only gave me snacks because I saved her, not for any other reason."

Xie Hongyu looked at the calm boy, but she was not sure about the truth of the matter. She looked at her suspiciously: "Really?"

"More real than pearls."

"But, Ah Yin, are you underestimating your looks? You are a hero saving a beautiful girl, and you are such a handsome man. Don't you believe that the girl will like you?"

Qingyin remained silent. She deliberately didn't say that the girl liked her because she was afraid that Xie Hongyu would worry.

"I will turn her down."

Xie Hongyu sighed, "That's right, your identity is different now."

"But what about your future marriage?" she asked seriously.

Qingyin thought for a moment and said, "It's okay if we don't get married."

Xie Hongyu raised her eyebrows, "You don't want to get married, but those people only want to marry you. When I was out these days, was there any time that no one asked about your marriage?"

"If you ask me, you should find a woman who knows your true self and is willing to keep it secret, and then fake a marriage with her to silence those people. If you find someone you like in the future, you can keep her as your lover."

Qingyin looked at Xie Hongyu who was speaking seriously and was a little surprised. She didn't expect that her sister was so open-minded.

However, it was both easy and difficult to find the person. Qingyin keenly discovered the hidden danger: "What if that person is exposed?"

"Sister, this is not safe."

"Okay then, what do you say we should do?" Hearing this, Xie Hongyu also sighed. If someone revealed this, both she and A Yin would be finished.

Qing Yin lowered her eyes: "Take one step at a time and see what happens."

Late at night, Prince Dun looked at the news sent by his subordinates and narrowed his eyes, "The person she has her eyes on is Xie Yin."

Recalling the incomparably beautiful and androgynous face in the court, Prince Dun and the Third Prince were not surprised.

It was not difficult for the demanding little princess to fall in love with him because of Xie Yin's face, but he felt strangely unhappy.

I didn't know who the emotion was for.

"It must be Xie Yin who has been causing trouble for Lin Bichen these days."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Then let me see if this top scholar who dares to hit my people is not afraid of death at all?"

"Chen Feng, hand the invitation to Xie Yin."

"Yes."

……

On the second day, Qingyin was resting and looked at the invitation handed to her with a slight frown.

Prince Dun, did he hold the Hongmen Banquet for her because of Lin Bichen?

Xie Hongyu looked at Qingyin's expression, guessing that the invitation had bad intentions, and asked tentatively, "How about not going?"

"I can't go."

"Sister, public law has its own rules. Prince Dun doesn't have any leverage over me, so he can't do anything."

"Besides, it's not necessarily a bad thing." Qingyin raised her eyebrows and smiled.

"But..." Xie Hongyu looked at the boy's surprisingly fair and handsome face and suddenly felt relieved.

Well, with a face like that, no one should want to bully her directly.

Jiamin, who was blocking Xie Yin near Xie’s house, was confused when she saw the missing figure.

Doesn't A-Yin come out every day? Why isn't he here today?

Jiamin waved her hand and asked Baizhu to come over: "Azhu, can you go and find out?"

"Yes, princess."

—

"Princess, something's wrong. The Third Prince has called Lord Duan to his place." Bai Zhu ran back breathlessly.

"Third brother?" Jiamin frowned subconsciously. Among her brothers, she was most afraid of the third brother. The other brothers would give in to her because of the emperor, but the third brother was the only one who insisted on snatching the gift that the emperor had just given her when he saw her when she was young.

And the third brother is a really cold person.

He won’t hurt Xie Lang, right?

Recalling the bloody corpses dragged out of her third brother's house, Jiamin became more and more frightened.

No, she had to go and see for herself.

"Baizhu prepares the sedan chair and goes to Prince Dun's mansion."
