"Prince, turn around."

Xiao Yi Xiu snorted. His eyes were filled with disdain, as if he was silently saying, "How is your body worthy for me to look at?"

However, he still turned around.

Gu Qingli casually flipped open a phoenix tail dress made out of a hundred butterflies and hastily changed into it. A palace maid summoned her, "Prince Chen, please come over to invite you. Prince Mo, please come over to pay respects to the Empress."

"Let him wait outside."

Xiao Yixiu casually turned his head and saw Gu Qing Li, who had just taken off his socks, staring at him with a stiff expression.

Fortunately, the dress was well-worn.

"So slow." He approached, bent down, took the stockings from her hand, put them on carefully and gently, and slipped the embroidered shoes over her feet.

Gu Qingli almost couldn't believe her eyes. She just stood there, stiff and unmoving, not knowing how to cooperate until he impatiently said, "Can you move it on your own?"

She hurriedly extended her foot to let him dress properly, and when she saw him holding her other bare foot, she could not help but say, "I … I'll do it myself. "

Xiao Yixiu ignored her, continuing to gently hold her delicate feet in his lap.

Only now did Gu Qingli feel that his hand was as light as a goose feather. The places that it brushed against were a bit itchy and a bit intoxicated. She actually felt like she didn't want to pull it back.

His ankle, which was as clean as soft jade, seemed to be about to break under the force of his palm, as if it would break if he used even a little bit of strength.

Her vision turned hazy, and her mind was in a mess. Was this still the cleanness of that perverted Xiao Yi Xiu?

"Let's go, Ah Yan has been waiting outside for a long time."

Gu Qingli seemed to have awoken from a dream. She stood up with a "Ah!" to hide her messy mood, and subconsciously stroked her hair, revealing her small, round, white, and smooth earlobes.

Xiao Yi Xiu stared at her before slowly walking over. He bent over and whispered, "No wonder even Ah Yan is moved by Princess Wang's alluring beauty."

"What did you say?" Gu Qingli raised her head and glared at him.

He straightened his body and said indifferently, "Ah Yan has praised you before, but you shouldn't be too concerned. He would even flirt with a beauty whenever he sees her. This is his nature."

Gu Qing Li focused on recalling the conversation with Xiao Yi Yan last night. Suddenly, suspicion arose in his heart as he cast a sidelong glance at him, "What does it have to do with you? Don't forget that you and I are only husband and wife in name. Even if I am tempted by someone, it has nothing to do with you. "

She walked out, feeling proud of herself.

Suddenly, Xiao Yixiu gripped his arm tightly. She turned his head to look at him and saw a cold smile in his eyes. It was so cold that it chilled people's heart. "Even if it's just a name, it's still a husband and wife. Before I divorce you, you must always obediently be your wife."

Gu Qingli glanced back at him and smiled, a gorgeous smile appearing in her eyes. "Your highness, admitting to being jealous is not a big deal, why pretend to be generous?"

He released her arm, and the smile in his eyes deepened: "Relying on you? "Down..." He stopped and walked out without looking back.

He was no longer like before, looking at her with eyes full of disdain. He could easily spit out the word "cheap".

When he said the first word, he subconsciously felt that it was used to describe her, which made him feel even more uncomfortable.

Gu Qing Li followed him out, completely immune to all the poisons, and saw Xiao Yi Yan standing outside, bored out of his mind. He stretched out his hand and pulled at a piece of the almond tree, causing the almonds to fall like rain, covering his shoulders and unconsciously grabbing onto the flower bud on the branch with his slender and pretty hands, as if he wanted to destroy it.

"Yan." Xiao Yi Xiu frowned slightly, clearly dissatisfied with Nie Tian's actions.

Xiao Yiyan turned his head and raised an eyebrow. When he saw Gu Qingli behind Xiao Yixiu, his eyes lit up and a smile broke out on his face. He was dressed in red, making him look like a blazing ball of fire beneath the apricot tree.

"Good morning, Fifth Sister." Xiao Yiyan waved at her, ignoring Xiao Yixiu who was walking towards her.

Gu Qingli also smiled at him, "Good morning, Prince Mo."

"Fifth royal sister-in-law is always so polite, it makes my king feel a little uncomfortable, why don't you and fifth brother call me Ah Yan, calling me seventh brother is also fine."

"Seventh brother …" "But since you are older than me, let's call you Ah Yan." Gu Qingli was originally sixteen years old, so she was younger than Xiao Yiyan. However, in her opinion, he was just a childish young man.

She had been holding onto her dress as she walked gracefully towards Xiao Yiyan. When she passed by Xiao Yixiu, he suddenly reached out his hand and gripped her wrist before sliding his fingers together with her. He said lightly: "Let's go."

The three of them headed towards the empress's Hall of the Phoenix.

"Ah Yan, don't you think this title is a bit too excessive for you?" Xiao Yi Xiu's voice was so low and oppressive that even Gu Qing Li beside him couldn't hear him clearly. Only the two words, "A Yan", seemed to come out from a crack between his teeth, appearing exceptionally clear.

Gu Qingli gave him a funny look. Was this possessive or jealous? It was one thing if he didn't admit it, but even though his eyes were filled with arrogance and displeasure, he still maintained a calm expression that was as gentle as jade.

"Fifth Imperial Aunt …" Xiao Yiyan kept talking to Gu Qing Li the whole way. His clear laughter seemed to pierce through the palace walls and reverberate through the palaces.

Gu Qingli only smiled reservedly, replying to him from time to time. She looked like a spring breeze, and even her eyes seemed to shine with starlight.

Xiao Yixiu glanced over from the corner of her eyes and suddenly remembered those cold eyes of Li Yue's. They were like stars in the milky way, and Gu Qingli had a pair of eyes that were similar to hers …

He suddenly understood why he always had this indescribable feeling towards Princess Hua-Yang. It was only for a pair of similar eyes, as well as the medicinal fragrance from her entire body.

But no matter how similar they were, it was useless. Li Yue was Li Yue, but Gu Qingli was just a chess piece set up by the Emperor.

Gu Qingli suddenly felt empty in her hands, and her palms turned cold. Amidst her shock, Xiao Yixiu had already let go of her hand and sped up her pace, leaving her and Xiao Yiyan behind.

What was he trying to do? She was confused.

The moment he stepped into the palace, the garden was filled with the fragrance of flowers and sandalwood. The sounds of birds chirping and the fragrance of flowers mixed together in a peaceful manner, making it almost impossible for Gu Qingli to connect with the person who set up this dark and secretive organization.

As they entered, they saw that the imperial concubines were already sitting in the hall, all dressed up. The princes had gathered around to bid the empress good morning.

The empress was dressed in a bright yellow phoenix robe with a peony top, sitting in the middle of the hall. The empress was dressed in a bright yellow phoenix robe, sitting in the middle of the hall with a peony yellow phoenix.

Imperial Concubine Lan was dressed in a beautiful dress, with a coquettish smile on her face. Imperial Concubine Ling was usually arrogant, except when she looked at her own son, Xiao Yi Mo.

"Today, my sons, here, I have something to explain to you." The empress looked around her, as if she was a little tired. She raised her plump white hands to support her forehead and said in a helpless tone, "The next thing to say is related to everyone in the palace, not to you."
