Chapter 19: Monkey

Chapter 19: Monkey

Back to Li Qinglin’s king mansion— it was actually not a king mansion, because Li Qinglin didn’t have a title. It was just a prince mansion. Qin Yi didn’t know why Li Qingjun had a title but Li Qinglin didn’t.

Of course, this place would soon become the crown prince mansion, so it didn’t matter whether he had a title or not. Qin Yi stood at the door, took out Li Qinglin’s badge, and was about to let someone pass the message, then he saw the door open and Li Qingjun was standing in front of him.

“Why did you come back?” Qin Yi was very surprised. The death of the crown prince is such a big deal, how long have you been to the palace before coming back?

“Father and Brother... and Royal Brother are discussing matters. I’m just idle anyway, so I came back to see you.” Li Qingjun said blankly, “I was worried that you were not used to living here or something, but it turned out that you didn’t come at all.”

“I went for a stroll and bought something.”

Li Qingjun’s eyes fell on his backpack.

The bulging rucksack already looked weird with the handle of the mace exposed outside. Now there was a wooden handle for some reason. He looked like a bumpkin who entered the city for the first time. Li Qingjun said in annoyance, “If you want anything, just tell the steward in the mansion to buy them. They will try their best to satisfy you. Why bother wandering around by yourself?”

“So good?”

“Of course.” Li Qingjun turned around and led him in, “You’re a guest invited by Royal Brother himself, who dares to neglect you?”

Immediately, the steward of the mansion nodded and bowed, “Princess, Sir Qin’s residence is ready.”

Li Qingjun said lightly, “Lead the way.”

Qin Yi looked at Li Qingjun’s appearance with great interest, thinking it was very amusing.

It could be said that when Li Qingjun was out there, she was a reckless but daring chivalrous woman. Now that she was back in the capital and at the prince mansion, she was a graceful and calm princess.

Qin Yi was convinced that Li Qingjun in the outside world was her real side, but he didn’t know if Li Qingjun’s face in the capital was just acting or if this was also the other side of her personality?

The steward of the mansion prepared an independent courtyard for Qin Yi. The layout was somewhat similar to Qin Yi’s own small courtyard, except that the carved beams and painted buildings were much richer. The courtyard was no longer planted with medicinal herbs, but full of flowers and green grass. The air was refreshing, and the scene was beautiful.

The steward bowed and said, “His Highness sent someone back to report just now, saying that Sir Qin likes to be quiet and elegant, so I made this arrangement. If sir is not satisfied, we can change another room.”

Qin Yi shook his head and said, “It’s very good here. It’s better to have an empty lawn with sunshine. I can use it sometime.”

The steward immediately turned his head and instructed, “Go and level the grass behind...”

Li Qingjun stared at Qin Yi. She felt that this monkey was made up by Qin Yi to insinuate her, “Are you... admonishing me?”

Qin Yi shook his head and said, “No, everyone has their own destiny, but I think that people still need to know what they want.”

“What I want...” Li Qingjun looked at the sky in a daze and whispered to herself, “What I want is to raise my silver spear, travel the world, go in and out of the immortal land, and sweep away the injustices in the world... instead of doing a noblewoman in the capital, recruiting a boring husband, and be trapped here for life.”

Qin Yi couldn’t help but said, “You really reincarnate into the wrong baby.”

Li Qingjun smiled and shifted the topic, “Can you tell me the story of that monkey in detail?”

“That’s a long story...”

Li Qinglin was busy right now, and Qin Yi didn’t know what he should do for the time being. It happened that Li Qingjun was sitting here chatting, and she was the only person he knew in the capital. Qin Yi didn’t think the story was too long, so he actually started talking about Journey to the West with her.

This talk went straight to Havoc in Heaven. Li Qingjun was fascinated by the unheard-of story. She smiled lightly, “What a wild, unruly and bold monkey.”

Li Qinglin’s voice came from outside the courtyard, “This is a monkey that dared to resist and fight for what it wanted. Even if what it did may be a crime. It’s a very interesting story. I look forward to the following story from Brother Qin.”

Both of them stood up. Li Qingjun’s expression became solemn again, “How was it?”

“There is no clue.” Li Qinglin said in a deep voice, “The murderer was very fast. According to the elder brother’s guards, only a black shadow flashed by, and the elder brother... I personally suspect that the West Savage Kingdom did it.”

Li Qingjun tightened her lips.

Li Qinglin said again, “You and I were not around when the incident happened, so we couldn’t intervene temporarily. Father is doing his best to investigate. There will be results soon.”

Li Qingjun sighed, “Are you going to be the crown prince?”

“En...” There was no joy on Li Qinglin’s face. Instead, he shook his head, “This is really... being roasted on the fire.”

Li Qingjun asked, “Someone is suspecting you?”

“En, although there are only a few, it is inevitable, but this kind of suspect is meaningless.”

It really was meaningless, because the emperor only had 2 sons. It was impossible to treat the only remaining son as a suspect because of some groundless and unfounded doubts.

Li Qinglin didn’t continue this topic. He turned to Qin Yi, “Brother Qin, I’m really sorry to neglect you. It was kind of sudden.”

“The princess has been talking nonsense with me all day, how is there neglect?” Qin Yi pointed at the sky, “The sun is already setting, and you haven’t treated me a meal yet. That’s a real negligence.”

Li Qinglin laughed.Upstodatee from n(0)/ve/lbIn/.(co/m
