"Child, why are your wariness so strong? Could it be that everyone in this world must have a goal in everything they do?"
Qian Li blinked her eyes.
"Today, I've only come here to visit you. Recently, the prince hasn't been around, so you can't relax by yourself."
Qian Li understood, even though she could not differentiate between the truth and the truth, she would definitely not choose to expose him.
"I remember that when I came to the King's Manor that day, Master said …" He hasn't been out lately. "
"Yes." The butler nodded, and vaguely said something, but he did not directly answer, so Qian Li naturally did not pursue the matter.
"When I'm at the Duke Palace, Miss Qian Li should still call me master. It's not too late to call me master when we go out."
Qian Li nodded. Naturally, since Gong Ming had said that he was someone that he had picked up, she had played the role of a friend or confidant in the Duke Palaces.
When someone was around, she would naturally not call Gong Ming Master.
"Alright, I understand."
After drinking a cup of water, the butler looked at the pear trees and asked curiously, "Didn't Miss Qian Li ask for a shovel? Why did you start picking the grass?"
"In the end, there are places that cannot be used shovels. This pear tree has not been taken care of for so many years. Although it is still alive, but …" Very thin and weak. "
The butler nodded, "Yes, it has been many years."
"Can I ask the butler a question?" However, if you find it inconvenient to answer after asking, the steward can pretend not to hear you. "
Butler nodded: "In my impression." Miss Qian Li had always been one of those … "Why would someone who doesn't like to be nosy suddenly think of asking me a question?"
"I've been through so many things because I'm not familiar with this place. I've been on high alert because of it. Now that the crisis has been resolved, shouldn't the butler let me live a normal life?"
The butler smiled, "If you ask me, I will tell you everything I know."
"Hehe, this answer..." Aren't you afraid that I'll ask you some questions that you don't want to answer? "
"Miss Qian Li is so smart. "Of course it's to know what to ask and what not to ask."
Hearing this, the corner of Qian Li's mouth twitched. She really didn't know where this person got her confidence from.
"Qian Li remembers that when she went to the other courtyards in the Duke Palaces that day, she had never seen a pear tree before. Most people don't like this kind of tree either, and felt that it had the meaning of separation.
"Yes." The butler nodded with a smile on his face. Miss Qian Li really wanted to ask, but that was not the case, was it? "
Being understood too well was not something to be happy about, but at least the situation right now was not serious, so Qian Li did not mind.
"So she said it directly." "Hmm, I just feel that since it has already been planted, why don't you take good care of it?"
How could it be so difficult from the beginning to the end?
When the prince was young, he fell in love with the pear tree for a while, but when he was in the palace, he never had a chance. When he moved out of the palace to live by himself, he felt that he should fulfill his childhood wish, so he casually planted these plants.
Qian Li pursed her lips. In the end, she still wasn't the one who started the fight and eventually abandoned it.
Although it seemed rather serious to use this word, it was the same feeling in his eyes.
As expected, they were both princes after all, and both of them shed the same blood as Gong Ye.
They didn't know that sometimes a little care was enough.
But they were all so stingy that they weren't willing to give him any time at all.
Qian Li finally understood that in their eyes, it was as long as she achieved her goal. Once the wish was fulfilled, everything else wouldn't matter at all, right?
As he thought of this, he suddenly felt a sense of helplessness.
"Do you have wine?"
Unconsciously, she opened her mouth to speak, but after she said those words, without waiting for the butler to react, Qian Li immediately shook her head: "Forget it, alcohol makes people easily make the wrong judgement, I'll just drink some tea then."
Qian Li poured herself a cup of tea. She finished it in one gulp.
In other words, a toast to the past. When they met again in the future, they would only be enemies.
Gong Ming, Gong Ye, in the end, you are all the same type of people.
Cruelty, ruthlessness, ruthlessness, ruthlessness …
How could I have felt you were good when I saw your unintentional patience?
Qian Li pursed her lips, suddenly feeling that she was somewhat funny.
Both of them were experts at acting, yet she changed her attitude towards the people in the palace just because of some one-sided scenes, something she saw with her own eyes. It was simply stupid.
His Master had been right, he said, "Many times, you can't just blindly believe what your eyes see, because what you see with your own eyes, isn't necessarily real."
At that time, how could Murong Yan have known of such a logic? She lifted her little head and asked naively, "But if we don't even believe our own eyes, what else can we believe?"
As her Master stroked her head, he always felt that with her pure personality, she would definitely suffer a loss. And it was indeed like that later on, not only would she suffer a loss, but she would also suffer a loss that she would never be able to make up for in her entire life.
Thinking back to that time, no matter how much he had suffered, it seemed as if Gong Ye could make her forget about anything and not care about anything.
It was not that he did not see Gong Ye together with the other women, but he did not have the qualifications to get jealous and angry.
Gong Ye was right, he was the emperor, how could an emperor only have one concubine?
What he said was right. He needed to constantly take in all sorts of concubines in order to keep his foundation unstable.
Back then, she had listened attentively to whatever he said. In fact, she had even personally picked out a girl for him from the very beginning.
However …
And after that?
Qian Li took a deep breath. After this, after Gong Ye's foundation had stabilized, the first person he had to deal with was actually himself, a person who had accompanied him for over ten years with all his heart. To his surprise … The one who accompanied him the longest.
He said, "Actually, you should know why I can't keep you, because you are too smart and too powerful. How can I tolerate a woman who is even stronger than I am? In their eyes, the influence that you have in those soldiers at the border, and your brothers who followed you in life and death, exceeded ours. So Murong Yan, your death was actually caused by you. "
What else could she say?
Was he the one who caused all of that?
It was the result of him giving his all.
Hence, on the second day, she personally acted in a huge drama and personally burned the Weiyang Palace she was currently in.
She could have let everyone know that she had died a horrible death, and that she had been killed by Gong Ye.
But at that time, he was still stupid in the end, and would rather die than make things difficult for Gong Ye.
She knew what the Xiao Lan was thinking. In the end, the Xiao Lan was also unwilling to kill her, which was why she had even risked her life to tell herself, "The Emperor didn't want you. The one who wanted to kill you has always been the Emperor." In that case.
However, she never would have thought that the man she was protecting with his life would actually kill her.
She touched the center of her brows and felt that the spot between her eyebrows was in pain, but it was clear that she had changed her body.
"Qian Li?"
As someone spoke from the side, Qian Li quickly regained her senses and accidentally touched her face. Luckily, she did not reveal any emotions or tears.
"Then, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first. There are still some matters that still have to be taken care of by me."
Qian Li nodded her head, "Then if there's nothing else, butler better not come here too often."
Without waiting for the butler to reply, Qian Li took the initiative to reveal the crux of the matter, and said, "Your influence in the Prince's Mansion is not much less than the Prince's. "If you hadn't come to see me personally, those ladies wouldn't have come to disturb me so early …"
The butler nodded and turned to leave. However, when he reached the door, he suddenly turned around.
"Oh, right, I almost forgot to tell you. Your highness said that in three days, you need to drink tea in the courtyard and not go anywhere else. You just need to drink tea, and you don't need to do anything else."
Qian Li did not answer, she only looked at the butler with a faint smile.
Looking at her expression, it was as if he would say, hmm, was it said that she didn't carry any motives?
