C168 Deja vu

Xiao Lan...

The moment she heard this name, the old Mama almost couldn't stand anymore. Previously, although he said that he had always been teaching Qian Li Palace's etiquette, in reality, the palace maids weren't even around when he taught her. Even though she had seen this girl a few times, she never knew her name.

When he heard this, the tears in his eyes were about to flow out at any moment.

Xiao Lan... Xiao Lan.

Isn't this the name of the palace maids by the side of Empress?

And Qian Li was the only person other than the empress dowager who treated her well. Could it be that all of this was heaven's will?

She kneeled down once again. Even though no one was supporting her this time, she still remained kneeling.

"Empress Dowager, this was sent by you to save the empress dowager, right?"

A heavy rain suddenly began to fall from the sky. The appearance of thunder and lightning was truly terrifying.

It was as if someone was sobbing, but it also seemed like someone had sensed the meaning behind her words.

"Esteemed Empress Dowager, you're feeling sorry for the empress dowager as well, right?"

Her voice was drowned out by the heavy rain and there was no response at all.

"Mama, what happened to you? "Hurry and get up."

Behind him was the frantic footsteps of the palace maid …

Before Qian Li even returned to the Weiyang Palace, it had already rained. She stood still and suddenly wanted to rain.

It was a great experience.

In truth, she did not blame the old Mama at all.

It was because she was too stubborn that she didn't even leave a word behind for the empress dowager when she left. It was because she was too stubborn that she didn't leave a single word behind for the empress dowager when she left.

She had been living in her own thoughts and she had always felt that her decision could never be changed.

This was why they were so stubborn in harming the more than a hundred people in Prime Minister Mansion. This was why those who died would not be able to live a peaceful life.

When Xiao Lan caught up, she realized that Qian Li was collapsed in the rain. No matter how much she tried to support him, he couldn't.

"Princess, what happened to you?"

The rain fell onto Qian Li's face, causing him to be unsure whether it was tears or rain, but Xiao Lan knew that Qian Li was crying.

She had seen many tears in her life. Some cried out loud, some cried falsely, some cried carelessly, some cried heartlessly.

But Qian Li's silent crying made them feel even more pain.

She didn't really understand Qian Li, but she knew that she was a woman who hid many things in her heart. If that wasn't the case, then back then in the prison, such inhuman torture, such a bloody scene, such a terrifying place, wasn't something that everyone could endure.

She always knew that she was suffering, but since she didn't want to talk about it, she didn't ask.

However, at this moment, when she saw how miserable she was feeling, she suddenly felt very uncomfortable as well.

"Princess, please don't be like this. If there's anything, can you tell this servant?"

Qian Li looked at Xiao Lan beside her slowly. In the heavy rain, she seemed to have really seen the Xiao Lan return.

"Xiao Lan …"

Her voice was hoarse, and her eyes were cloudy.

"Princess, this is your servant, your servant."

"Xiao Lan …"

Qian Li didn't say anything, she only shouted out that name. Xiao Lan also didn't know what to do, she only continued to hug her.

"Princess, if you have something on your mind, can you tell me? This servant feels very uncomfortable looking at you like this. "

"Xiao Lan, it hurts here …"

Qian Li pointed at her chest. She sniffed once, and felt an incomparably sour feeling in her heart.

As for Qian Li and the Xiao Lan who were immersed in their own thoughts, they did not notice, that at the moment, the emperor was not far away, and his figure had just flashed into the back of a house.

"Your majesty, aren't you going to help?" When Liu Xi asked this, he could tell that Qian Li was upset just by looking at it. Should he go over and ask what happened?

"Why is she here?"

"Rumor has it that he's always been by the side of the empress dowager's palace today. When this old servant first went over, he's still there. I presume he's just come out right now."

Gong Ye nodded, this was indeed the way to the empress dowager.

"How did they talk?"

"According to the palace maids in the empress dowager's palace, they got along very well. Furthermore, this Qian Li has her own ways too. Even the empress dowager was amused by her."

"Then right now …"

"Could it be that he fell somewhere? The princess looked to be in pain? How about this old servant go over and support him? By the way, what happened? "

Gong Ye waved his hand, "Wait a moment."

"But …" The princess' expression doesn't seem right. "

Liu Xi reminded her.

Gong Ye naturally knew, but he said, "This woman gives off a different feeling. As a villager, her words and actions do not seem like those of a villager, but I feel that there are many secrets on her body. If she did not reveal such an expression, I would not be able to find any clues."

Without waiting for Liu Xi to speak, Gong Ye continued to ask, "Have you investigated the matter between Qian Li and the Ninth Prince who asked you to go to court earlier?"

Liu Xi nodded and bowed as he replied, "According to the reports of the spies in the prince's mansion, the princess is the only woman who can freely enter and leave the prince's study. Although the prince treats her very well, she does not seem to appreciate it, and the spies are very certain that before they came to the palace that day, Miss Qian Li had been framed and wronged by the princess.

"It seems that Ninth Brother really cares about this girl."

"According to this old servant's perspective, the Ninth Prince only feels good if he can't get it."

Gong Ye seemed to be interested, he asked: "Why do you say that?"

"Your majesty, think about it. Although the Ninth Prince does not have any real power in the court, but the identity of a prince is destined to be incomparably noble, and most women would want to stick onto him. Not only Ninth Prince, the Third Prince who claims to like the princess is also destined to do so."

"Why is that?"

"The princess' temper is different from the women they have met, and the third prince often stays in a place like a bunch of women, but the places he goes to are places like fireworks in the sky. The women in those places, even if he is not the prince but someone with slightly more money, will all catch up with him, and the third prince, he never hides his identity when he goes out. All the women in this world, which one doesn't want to live a good life, the women in those places, they all hope to have a chance to escape from that place?" This is also the reason why the Third Prince always likes to go to those places but never takes any woman seriously, nor promises any woman anything, because those women, are beautiful, but they are all people who can sleep with ten thousand men, even if they are young, they are still people from that place, so the Third Prince has never been tempted, and never really wanted to live with anyone. Just when the Third Prince was beginning to get tired of this kind of lifestyle, a Qian Li suddenly appeared out of nowhere. "

"So what?"

"Princess Qian Li's looks are definitely top-notch. If she smiles, she will definitely cause the entire country to collapse, but the most important thing is that she is different from those women. As a woman, she is very independent, and she does not rely on men, so she will treat anyone else differently because of her noble identity. In her eyes, princes are no different from commoners, so when she sees the Third Prince, she does not even spare a glance."

"What if it's just a trick of hers? Women these days, you know, are willing to do anything to get what they want. "

I believe he can tell at a glance that even if you can't tell at the start, you wouldn't be able to escape his eyes after a long time. Furthermore, if Qian Li was trying to capture her, she would have risked her life to follow the Third Prince.

"But what if the position of an imperial concubine is not what she wants? It might not even be the truth. In her heart, there is a higher position that she wants to fight for. She doesn't even care about the position of an imperial concubine at all? "

"It doesn't make sense for the emperor to say such words."

Liu Xi frowned, but he felt that it wasn't like that.

"We've discovered that if we say it like this, everything from before seemed to have become coherent. Perhaps everything this Qian Li did before was to attract our attention."

"This …"

"Princess, what's wrong with you? Princess, please wake up. "Princess." Just then, the surrounding suddenly sounded with Xiao Lan's screams.
