A red apricot is about to cheat on you

Chapter 110 Causing a quarrel

Zhu Qingxue walked lightly to the hunting ground. As soon as she stepped into this bustling place, she saw Chu Junye surrounded by people, like a moon surrounded by stars.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Qingxue felt as if a bottle of five flavors had been overturned in her heart, with a complex and indescribable feeling.

Now, his elder brother is still in prison. Chu Junye once vowed to rescue his elder brother, but so much time has passed, and what he got was the news that his elder brother Zhu Yunwei was exiled to the border.

Every time she thought of this, Zhu Qingxue's heart felt like it had been hit hard, and it hurt so much that she couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied with Chu Junye.

This time, despite Chu Junye's impressive performance, Zhu Qingxue didn't approach him as usual. Instead, she sat quietly by the side, watching everything with a cold eye. Her eyes revealed a hint of distance and indifference.

Chu Junye, as if by telepathy, noticed her too. He walked briskly to her side, a concerned smile on his face as he asked, "Xue'er, when did you get here?" His voice was gentle and mellow, just like every time he called her.

Zhu Qingxue lowered her head slightly, revealing her fair and slender neck, and said softly, "Greetings, Your Majesty. My father wouldn't let me go out, so I came here secretly with my cousin."

There was a distant accent in her voice, which surprised Chu Junye. He frowned slightly, his eyes filled with confusion and worry, and hurriedly asked her what was wrong, if she was feeling unwell. As he spoke, his hand was about to touch hers, wanting to give her a little comfort, but she quietly dodged it.

Chu Junye's hand froze for a moment, hanging in the air, and then awkwardly retracted. At this moment, Zhu Qingxue's cousin came over. He was tall and straight, with an extraordinary temperament. He bowed and said:

"Greetings, Third Prince, Xue'er, your cousin will take you to see the golden roosters they hunt. It's very interesting." After saying that, he gently took Zhu Qingxue's arm and took her away.

Chu Junye stood there blankly, watching their departing figures, a bitter feeling welling up in his heart. It made him feel like a huge rock was pressing down on his heart, making him feel suffocated and uncomfortable.

Zhu Qingxue and her cousin were walking down the street. Her cousin asked with a puzzled look on his face, "Cousin, are you really going to leave the Third Prince hanging like this? Aren't you afraid it might backfire?"

Zhu Qingxue raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a sinister smile with a hint of calculation in it.

She opened her red lips slightly and said slowly, "I just want to leave him alone like this, to be close yet distant to him. I know Chu Junye too well. He is like a greedy hunter. He will never cherish the prey that is easily obtained.

Now, his heart is almost falling for Yi Duoer. If I don't work harder, he will really abandon me.

"Don't worry. He won't." Her voice was soft, but with unquestionable firmness.

On the other side of the hunting ground, all the prey has been registered and everyone can take the spoils as they please.

The Ninth Princess and Li Yue stood in front of the dazzling array of prey, but a hint of loss was revealed in their eyes. Li Yue picked up a black rabbit, its fur was soft and smooth,

But Li Yue just shook her head lightly, sighed and said: "It's a pity to lose so many prey. Duo'er is not here, so we can't eat the barbecue she made." There was a hint of disappointment in her tone.

Li Yue couldn't help swallowing when she thought of the delicious food Yi Duoer made, the sizzling meat skewers, the fragrant barbecue, the steaming hot pot, and the delicious stir-fried dishes.

Yi Duoer is like a magical sorcerer. Even a strange-looking insect with front claws can be turned into a mouth-watering, red delicious dish in her hands.

The Ninth Princess glanced at Li Yue and smiled helplessly. They had also invited Yi Duo'er before, but she had refused without hesitation.

Their conversation was overheard by Shen Mingzhu who was walking over. When Shen Mingzhu heard Yi Duoer's name, anger suddenly ignited in her heart.

She thought of the rumors about Yi Duo'er and Chu Jingchen, and jealousy surged in her heart. In her heart, Chu Jingchen was hers, but this Yi Duo'er was like an intruder, stealing Chu Jingchen's attention.

So, she took a few steps forward and said in a bad tone: "The Yi Duoer you are talking about, is it the Yi Duoer who spread rumors with Brother Jing?" There seemed to be two flames burning in her eyes, and anger almost burst out of her eyes.

Seeing her arrogant attitude and her inability to show respect, the Ninth Princess felt a surge of anger. She raised her chin slightly and retorted bluntly:

"What rumor? Duo'er is Duo'er. Or, don't call my uncle so affectionately. He has a title!" The Ninth Princess' voice was crisp and majestic, with a royal aura.

Shen Mingzhu grew up in an environment of luxury and has a very strong personality. She will not fawn over someone just because she is the Ninth Princess.

So, she retaliated rudely, her eyes filled with disdain. She was implying that Yi Duo'er was a slut who slept with anyone, married and still seducing others. Although she didn't say it out loud, everyone present could hear the implication.

When Li Yue liked Chu Jingchen before, she didn't dare to scold Yi Duoer so directly. Now she is becoming more and more disgusted with Shen Mingzhu.

She frowned, her eyes full of anger, and said directly: "Duo'er is not that kind of person. Who do you think you are? How dare you ridicule her in front of us? Do you believe I will beat you?" Her hand had already grasped the scimitar at her waist, and she was ready to fight if she disagreed with her.

Shen Mingzhu had never been so angry before. Her face flushed red, and without saying a word, she swung the long whip at her waist. The long whip passed through the air, making a crisp sound of "snap". She looked at Li Yue with a sharp look.

She cursed, "You are a foreign princess, how dare you speak to me like that? Let's see who will be beaten today. I will teach you a lesson first, and then I will go teach that Yi Duoer a lesson."

The phrase "foreign princess" was like a fire that completely ignited Li Yue's wrath. She knew her status could not be insulted in this way, and she was determined to teach this ignorant woman a lesson.

The maidservant beside Shen Mingzhu worriedly advised: "Princess, she is the princess of Yingjue, don't be impulsive!" The maidservant's voice trembled a little, she knew very well that if the matter got out of hand, the consequences would be disastrous.

As soon as the maid finished speaking, Shen Mingzhu glared at her angrily, raised her hand, and slapped her hard in the face. She cursed fiercely, "You lowly thing, how dare you interfere with this princess?"

The maid felt a sudden burning pain on her face, and tears welled up in her eyes. She looked at Shen Mingzhu timidly, not daring to say another word. She just covered her swollen face and silently stepped aside.

Seeing her so arrogant and unreasonable, the Ninth Princess felt even more disgusted with her. She had grown up in the palace and had never beaten or scolded a servant. Seeing this, she was very displeased with Shen Mingzhu's behavior.
