Shangguan Qian's mind went blank. Bastard, this rascal was kissing her again!

The two of them were very close, his aura and his smell were very distinct.

Shangguan Qian's face turned red, and he tried to push him away, but her hands were restrained by him.

Feeling the pain in her arms, she sucked in a breath of cold air. It was as if Ouyang Jin also realized this, and he released her hands, allowing her to fall into his embrace.

The swift release of his hand. He opened the bandage and checked it carefully.

Shangguan Qian wanted to move his hand away, but his brow furrowed instantly.

"Don't move."

Shangguan Qian's head was resting on his lap, his breathing full of his own scent, he was really drunk.

"What are you doing?" Shangguan Qian bit his lips, a slight blush on his face. He felt dizzy, and his heart began to beat exceptionally fast.

This was the first time in his life that his heart was beating rapidly. The target was actually Ouyang Jin.

Ouyang Jin took out a small medicine bottle and gently sprinkled the medicinal powder on her wounds before swiftly bandaging them.

"Why are you still in my arms?" he teased with a gentle smile.

Shangguan Qian's expression froze, he quickly sat up and glared at Ouyang Jin.

Even so, she felt her cheeks burning intensely. This bastard, why does he seem to be making fun of her?

Ouyang Jin narrowed his eyes, attentively sizing up every single one of her expressions. Patting his leg, he smiled and asked, "If not, why don't you lie down for a while longer?"

"Bastard!" Shangguan Qian'er muttered to himself in a low voice, his cheeks tightening as she was too lazy to bother with him.

Ouyang Jin's smile intensified as he cast a sidelong glance at her. "Little Qian'er, are you shy?"

"No!" She hurriedly replied in a negative tone, but it seemed like she was deliberately trying to cover it up.

He was really going to be driven crazy by this bastard! He couldn't control his emotions.

This was the first time in his rebirth that he felt this way.

"Really?" Your face is particularly red. " He smiled, his impeccable face revealing an evil intent.

"Honored Imperial Advisor, isn't it inappropriate for you to come here so late at night?" I won't send you off. "

"They want to drive me away." Ouyang Jin lunged at her and pinched her chin. With a trace of tenderness in his eyes, he asked, "Are you sure you want to kick me out?"

"This is not the Third Prince's Mansion! You can't just casually do it! " She frowned and slapped his hand away, her small face twisted.

Ouyang Jin laughed, "Do you mean that in the Third Prince's Mansion, I can do whatever I want?"

Her expression froze. This bastard, what was he thinking?

Since when did she say that? She was practically being surrounded by him!

He glared at him angrily and mumbled, "If you don't leave, I'm going to yell!"

He reclined on the bed, looking as if he didn't want to leave, and asked indifferently, "Shouting loudly? What are you shouting for? Did you call me molester you? "

"You …"

"Just shout. It's not like I'm at a disadvantage. It's just that you, little Qian'Er, are in trouble. Do you think Li Fengyi will still want you?" Ouyang Jin narrowed his eyes, as if he was certain that he would eat her up.

Shangguan Qian was about to go crazy, he bit his lips and asked slowly, "Honored Imperial Advisor, then what do you want?" "Say, this little girl should do as you say."

"Let me hug you." He was smiling, but it was as if he was joking.

A hug? Had they held each other more than once? But for some reason, every time she felt that it didn't matter, why did she feel that it was so difficult this time?

Taking a deep breath, she moved to his side and hugged him.

The moment she hugged him, he abruptly pressed down on her, pressing her down. Under his body.

The tip of his nose was almost touching hers, Shangguan Qian was totally scared, his eyes were wide open, and he did not dare to breathe.

Ouyang Jin seriously stared at her with a profound look, as though he wanted to see her through the depths of his bones.

The two of them stared at each other indifferently. Neither of them took the initiative to speak, and the atmosphere became more and more tense.

She felt the air thinning around her, and her wide-open eyes were sore, but she didn't dare blink.

"Little Qian'Er, tomorrow is the first day, remember?"

She nodded heavily. "I remember."

"Good boy." He pressed his cool fingers to her lips and smiled.

The next second, she felt her body lighten, as if she had completely lost her burden. Shangguan Qian sat up, her gaze falling on the open window, her eyes filled with a strange emotion.

In the morning, before Shangguan Qian woke up, he heard loud noises coming from outside.

She narrowed her eyes and sat up, then simply washed her face and walked out.

"Have you heard? The young eunuch that was captured yesterday has been killed. "

"I heard, his head was split, he died miserably."

"Seems like he killed Yuan Mei this time around." The murderer can't be found. "

"There are so many grievances in the palace, which one has really been investigated? "Don't be silly."

Shangguan Qian pushed the door open, and the palace maids around him exchanged glances before dispersing.

This meant that the young eunuch was dead? Was it really the empress's doing?

He sighed and lowered his head to examine the wound on his arm. He felt a chill pass through his body all of a sudden.

If that was the case, she really should guard against the Empress. After all, how could Shangguan Qian cause such a ruckus with his mysterious death in the Great Yan Empire?

Inside the main hall, the empress leaned lazily against the soft couch, her face tinged with a rosy hue. She was no longer as pale as she had been the day before.

"Qian'Er, how was your rest last night?"

"Very well, thank you mother for your concern." There was a gentle smile on Shangguan Qian Qian's face as he sat at the side, saying: "Imperial Mother, when I came out just now, I heard from the little palace maid that the eunuch I caught yesterday died?"

The empress's face darkened as she nodded. "I wanted to tell you too, but since you asked, I'll tell you."

"That young eunuch was originally going to be escorted to the Sky Prison. Who knew that just as he left the city gates, an arrow shot out of thin air and he died."

Shangguan Qian's expression was grave, it seemed that the little eunuch was indeed dead.

Originally, even if the eunuch was captured, the empress definitely wouldn't be able to live for long.

But after this trip, who knew what tricks the empress would use to frame her next time?

She took a deep breath and felt a chill on her legs. What she was most afraid of was this kind of person who would attack her in the dark.

If she was not on guard, it was very easy for her to fall into his trap, not to mention right now in the palace, she had no other choice but to be on guard.

"However, with the death of this little eunuch, I'm afraid I don't even know who killed Yuan Mei." "He's gone." Shangguan Qian said indifferently, his brow furrowed.

"Since he's a thief, he will emerge sooner or later." The empress spoke carelessly, but there was a trace of mockery in her tone.

"Muhou, is your shoulder still painful? "Qian'Er can help you apply it a bit more. It's a bit more comfortable."

"Alright."

Shangguan Qian'er held onto her shoulder, his brow furrowed, his heart tossing and turning. He could not stay in the palace any longer.

If they continued to stay here, who knew what would happen?

Besides, she didn't want to be treated as a thorn in her side. She should find a time to explain the situation to the empress.

Li Qingying, oh Li Qingying, you've caused me too much trouble!

Just as she was lost in her thoughts, the sound of footsteps came from outside the hall.

"Mother, your son greets you."

"This son greets you."

Shangguan Qian raised his head, and the Crown Prince and Li Qing Ying appeared in the hall, one on each side.

Why didn't she know they came every morning to say hello? If he knew, he shouldn't have come.

Suddenly, when she felt a gaze locking onto her, she frowned, then abruptly raised her head and saw Li Yichen.

His expression was calm, but there was a hint of ridicule in his eyes, as if he was extremely disdainful.

Shangguan Qian Qian wondered in his heart. She didn't remember forming enemies with Li Yichen, why was he looking at her like that?

"They're all here? Then have breakfast. " The empress spoke flatly.

Shangguan Qian hurriedly put away the wet cloth and set it aside.

"Yi Chen, you should have seen Qian'er before, right?" The Queen asked with a smile.

Li Yichen's eyes lightly glanced upwards for a moment, then he coldly said, "I've met with the appreciation."

"The last time Qian'Er blocked my sword, I took her as my goddaughter. Qingying was also there at the time."

Li Qing Ying's expression was cold as he nodded indifferently and gave a "hmph" in reply.

Shangguan Qian'er sat at the side, feeling rather awkward. "Qian'er greets the Crown Prince, Eighth Prince."

"Thank you." The Crown Prince spoke coldly, not giving him any face at all.

Li Qingying couldn't resist raising his head and giving her a deep look, but his eyes were full of suppressed pain.

It was as if he had a lot of things he wanted to say to her, but didn't know what to say.

The corners of Shangguan Qian's mouth twitched, feeling puzzled in the bottom of his heart. What was wrong with this Li Qingying?

"You two brats, in the future you must take care of Qian'Er. Don't let others bully her." She's your sworn sister, you know? " The queen smiled.

Li Yichen raised his head, and the corners of his mouth curled into a mocking smile as he said in a low voice, "Sister?" It's only natural to take care of them. "

"Thank you, Crown Prince." Shangguan Qian'er pursed her lips, feeling that the atmosphere at the table was rather depressing.

As for Li Qingying, he was even gloomily eating, as if he was in a bad mood from eating.

Because Shangguan Qian was going to change his medicine, he went to the side chamber to change his medicine, leaving the three of them in the main hall.

The empress's face tightened as she slammed her chopsticks on the table.

He asked in a deep voice, "Yesterday, the young eunuch killed someone. Which of the two of you caused this?"

Although the Empress had asked this, she was clearly looking at the Crown Prince. Li Qingying should still be very fond of Shangguan Qian right now, why would he suddenly make a move?

Furthermore, when Senya came to the Peace Palace to look for her yesterday, Li Qingying had been the first to run out.

The Crown Prince, on the other hand, seemed to have disliked Shangguan Qian from the start, and it was obvious that he was the one who had done it.

Li Yichen snorted coldly, and a trace of ridicule was revealed on his face. "I just don't want eighth brother to fall into someone else's trap."

"Then you should still worry a bit, this is the palace! Luckily, only one Yuan Mei died. If it was any other concubine, your royal father would probably want to continue to investigate her! " The Queen said bitterly.

Li Yichen frowned, and his voice carried a trace of disdain. "Imperial Mother, your son understands."

"Imperial Mother, how can you say that? This matter was caused by Qing Ying, it has nothing to do with Qian'Er. " Li Qingying finally could not hold it in and said with a deep voice.

"Stubborn and unrepentant!" The empress slapped the table hard and glared at Li Qingying. "You're still planning to beat her up?" "Twisting and entangling?"

With a sullen face, Li Qingying said in a muffled voice, "No, Qingying knows very well that Shangguan Qian is Li Fengyi's man, so he won't be confused this time."

When the empress heard Li Qingying's words, her mood eased a bit.

"Qing Ying, this is for the best. Otherwise, before Yi Chen attacks, I will not let Shangguan Qian off the hook!"

Li Qingying clenched her fist tightly. No matter how indignant he was, he couldn't let it burst out right now.

He could not go against them, or else if Shangguan Qian was involved, how would he protect her?

"Muhou, that little eunuch, you've already executed him?" Li Yichen's tone was calm, as if he'd long since guessed that this young eunuch wouldn't affect him in any way.

The empress gave him a long look, her brows slightly raised as she nodded. "I dealt with it yesterday. Remember, don't leave any evidence for the next time you do something."
