Liu Ruo Qing was surprised that Yan Yuan did not get angry, and even compromised with her.
She looked up at Yan Yuan, and saw his dull face revealing a little helplessness. Her heart palpitated, and a strange feeling started to churn in her heart.
Just that, both she and Shen Qin were injured, and she needed to find a doctor for her. She did not oppose Yan Yuan's suggestion, and only nodded her head in silence.
Fortunately for them, they were only superficial wounds. Shen Qin got dislocated after receiving a palm strike, and after the bandages were finished, the two of them left the infirmary.
"Princess, I'm fine now. Please follow me back to the mansion, don't worry about me."
"How can that be!"
Liu Ruo Qing still did not agree. Shen Qin still had something she wanted to say, but Yan Yuan beat him to it, "Miss Shen, there's no need to be so polite. We'll send you back together, it's not too late to return to the Duke Palaces later."
"This …"
Shen Qin was still a little nervous, and got the dignified Prince Jing and Crown Princess Jing to personally send her back to his residence. She felt a little apologetic in her heart.
"Then I'll have to thank the wangfei."
"What are you thanking me for? If it wasn't for you, I might have died at the hands of those people."
Liu Ruo Qing helplessly rolled her eyes at her, but deliberately ignored Yan Yuan's existence, standing next to him, and walked in front of him.
Yan Yuan was completely ignored like this, his heart a little disappointed and a little helpless. In the end, he could only smile bitterly behind them.
"Prince?"
Just then, a surprised voice came from his right hand.
The three of them turned to look, only to see Wang Xuan Ling walking quickly towards them.
Seeing the injuries on Liu Ruo Qing and her wife, they were all shocked. "Royal Consort, you …"
"I just ran into some trouble, but it's all settled."
Liu Ruo Qing replied with a smile. Ever since the truth of Shen Yuan's case was revealed, this was the second time she saw Wang Xuan Ling.
Although he was not as dispirited as he was the last time they met, he still did not return to his initial high spirits.
It looks like Shen Yuan's death had still left a big blow on him.
"So that's how it is."
Wang Xuan Ling knew that the matter was not that simple, but, since Crown Princess Jing did not plan to explain in detail, he did not ask any further.
"Young Master Wang, it's great to meet you here."
Shen Qin spoke up at this time. She turned around to look at Liu Ruo Qing and said: "Princess, now that Young Master Wang has sent me back, you can feel at ease to return with the Prince. You should rest more, especially your waist injury.
"This …"
"Since Young Master Wang is here, you don't have to worry too much. Just let him send Miss Shen back."
Yan Yuan also suggested so, but of course Wang Xuan Ling wouldn't reject, "That's right, Royal Concubine, Miss Shen can send her back with me. Please follow me back to your residence, you shouldn't walk for too long like this."
Since everyone had already said so, Liu Ruo Qing also did not persist.
In any case, with Wang Xuan Ling protecting Shen Qin, there shouldn't be any problems.
Finally, she nodded.
Liu Ruo Qing and Yan Yuan headed in another direction towards the Duke Palaces. After seeing them walk far away, Shen Qin withdrew her gaze and turned back to look at Wang Xuan Ling. At this time, Wang Xuan Ling's expression was no longer as gentle as before.
Just as she was about to speak up, Shen Qin beat him by a step and said: "Young Master Wang, thank you for just now. I can go back by myself, I won't need to trouble you anymore."
The corner of Wang Xuan Ling's mouth hooked into a cold smile. "Since I've already promised Your Highness, I naturally have to send you back. If something happens to the Miss Shen, I won't be able to explain it to the wangfei."
The corner of Shen Qin's mouth slightly stiffened, as if she was afraid that Wang Xuan Ling would misunderstand, she hurriedly explained: "Just now, the wangfei insisted on sending me back, I didn't want to trouble her and the prince, so I could only use Young Master Wang as an excuse. Please do not take offense, this place is not far from Shen Mansion, I can go back myself."
After that, without waiting for Wang Xuan Ling to speak, he turned and left.
Ah!
Wang Xuan Ling suddenly grabbed her arm and pulled her back, completely ignoring the wound on her shoulder, the pain made Shen Qin turn pale white, her expression extremely painful.
"Sir Wang, you …"
She raised her head to look at Wang Xuan Ling, only to see his gloomy face.
"Now that Yuan Er is dead, are you happy? However, remember this clearly, even without Yuan Er, it is impossible for me to like you! "
"Master Wang, you misunderstood me. I did not think that you would separate from Yuan Er. I don't know why Second Mother is …"
"Shut up!"
Mentioning Shen Yuan, Wang Xuan Ling felt a pain in his heart. He didn't want to hear any explanation from Shen Qin at all.
"Have you ever thought about it? You know very well that in the future, don't play any tricks in front of me! Otherwise, even if you are Scholar Shen's adopted daughter, I will still not let you off! "
After saying that, he shook off Shen Qin's arm that was drenched in cold sweat from the pain, then turned and left.
Seeing Wang Xuan Ling's resolute back figure walk further and further before his eyes, Shen Qin's heart, at this moment, was in so much pain that it had already far surpassed the dislocated wound on his shoulder.
She stood in the middle of the crowd in a daze, looking at the young men and women walking up and down the street. The fireworks in the sky were still blooming with such brilliance, but her heart couldn't grow any more gorgeous.
He then took out the lotus lamp that she had folded. Looking at the neatly written name on it, he laughed bitterly, "Even if I put you in the river, you won't be able to swim to his heart."
Tears fell onto the oil paper of the lotus lamp, wetting the name that she might not be able to approach in her entire life. In the end, she threw it into the air, turned around and walked into the crowd, and left lonely.
King Jing Palace —
"Princess, why are you injured again!"
Xiao Yue, who did not follow Liu Ruo Qing into the palace, was truly shocked when she saw Liu Ruo Qing return with an injured person.
"It's nothing, I just ran into a few killers."
Liu Ruo Qing endured the pain as she lay down on the bed.
"Assassin?"
Xiao Yue was shocked, "You did not offend anyone, who wants to send assassins to kill you?"
"I also find it strange. I couldn't figure out who it was after thinking about it for a while."
Xiao Yue poured a cup of water for Liu Ruo Qing, and when she turned around, she discovered that Yan Yuan was at the entrance. Just as she was about to bow, he was stopped by Yan Yuan.
Seeing him wave his hand, signalling Xiao Yue to retreat, following that, he took the cup from her hand and walked towards Liu Ruo Qing.
"I'm guessing that bitch Yan Yuan must have been an official and did too many bad things that caused the public to be angry. When people from the martial arts world came out to deal with him, they pitied me as his consort and caused me to suffer as well."
Just as Yan Yuan reached the bedside, he heard her indignant words. His footsteps paused at the bedside, he did not make a sound, but only saw her lying down with his back facing him, his face full of anger and dissatisfaction.
