Shen Qi found an embroidered chair and sat down. She looked at King Duanren and said with a smile, "Oh, it's like this. Your highness is now awake.

He discovered that his little wangfei was truly different from the masses. Although his eyes were wide open as he spoke lies, he didn't have any repulsive feelings towards her and instead found her to be very interesting.

"Thus, chenqie thought that in the future, chenqie would definitely pay sincere respects to Buddha in order to protect Your Highness from calamity, and live for a hundred years."

Duke Xian really couldn't understand what Shen Qi was trying to say. Wasn't she trying to show her loyalty? No, she was expressing her gratitude and agitation when she woke up, but it didn't seem like it. Even an idiot would be able to tell that she was calm and indifferent when she said it. Hence, he looked at Shen Qi and asked, what do you want to say?

Shen Qi saw that King Xian was showing signs of impatience, so she didn't say anything further. "My prince, my concubine intends to move to You Ran Residence. There is a small buddhist hall there, it's just right for my concubine to pray for your blessing, your highness."

The name You Ran was actually quite good, but it was actually the most remote courtyard of the Duke Palaces. No one lived there all year round, and it was very deserted, and was a forgotten place in the Duke Palaces. There really was a small buddhist hall there, and for some reason, when people built it, Shen Qi felt that she was extremely sensible.

He really did not understand why Shen Qi would choose such a courtyard to live in. Even he had almost forgotten that there was such a place in the Duke Palace, what was she planning to live there?

"You don't like the yard?" The Prince, who didn't understand what was going on, asked.

"Ah?" "No." Shen Qi was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and denied, this was not what she was thinking, but hearing that she was the one who took the initiative to move out of such an inconspicuous courtyard, shouldn't the king agree happily? Why was it different from what he expected? Could it be that he still had some value in using it?

Right now, King Duan was thinking, since he isn't dissatisfied with the courtyard, why did he want to move it? Could it be that he felt that the distance between him and his Main yard was too great, and wanted to move a closer Main yard?

After thinking that he understood, King Yuan immediately relaxed his brows. The smile in the depths of his eyes displayed the degree of happiness that his master was feeling. "Then, you can move to the Cang Lan Yuan."

Shen Qi blinked her eyes. If she remembered correctly, the Cang Lan Yuan was the Main yard that the Duke lived in, so why would he let her live in his Main yard? Close surveillance?

Shen Qi frowned, she did not understand what other use she had, and Duke Xian was confused by her reaction, "What? "You don't want to?" There was a chill in her voice.

They, the powerful nobles, if anything bad happened, they would start to let out cold air. Shen Qi had already expressed that she was not dissatisfied, what was there to be dissatisfied about?

The two people who did not understand the situation were not on the same band, Shen Qi felt that it would be better to be straightforward.

"Your Highness, don't worry. Chenqie will definitely defend her own courtyard and not go out. I will absolutely not embarrass you." On the other hand, the Wang Ma didn't care. Basically, she wanted to live with Shen Qi, but Zi Zhu, Zi Li, and the others were different.

Thus, Shen Qi began to discuss with him, "Your Highness, when my maids become old, can you allow my maids to leave? Don't worry, they won't even know what happened today."

Duke Xian finally understood what Shen Qi meant, but when did this duke say she wanted you to live in a corner? Did someone say something? King Xian's face turned cold. No matter what, she was still his imperial concubine. It was not up to anyone to criticize her.

Shen Qi raised her head and looked at the King Duanren in front of him. Did he really not know or was she pretending to be stupid? There was no need to play dumb to him, but did she really not understand? Shen Qi still found it hard to believe.

"Does Your Highness know the man from this morning?" Shen Qi quietly observed Duke Xiang's expression, but unfortunately, she couldn't figure out anything.

That was true, if he could see what the great King Duanren did mean, then he would no longer be King Duan. Shen Qi was not discouraged, he only wanted to know how he would answer this question.

"This King knows." King Xian thought for a moment before continuing, "This King has wronged you. But you can rest assured that I was on guard and definitely wouldn't have harmed your life." This kind of explanation made Duke Xian feel a bit unnatural. Although he didn't express it on Shen Qi's face, he still felt awkward in his heart.

After Shen Qi heard these words, he just wanted to "Hoho", he wouldn't hurt herself, so shouldn't she thank the Duke for not killing him?

She felt that it would be better to not beat around the bush when talking to a person with a high intelligence and low EQ like King Duan, so Shen Qi asked directly, "Your Highness, have you tried to interrogate the person you caught today?"

Although Duke Xian didn't understand why Shen Qi would ask such a question, she still answered honestly, "Yan Yi is interrogating."

"Then don't you want to know what he'll say?" Shen Qi smiled, tilted her head and asked him, according to that person's character, she would blame him completely for his death, so if he could say anything good, she, Shen Qi, would write it backwards.

Duke Xiang finally started to look straight at Shen Qi, and squinted at the smiling girl, "What do you mean?"

Shen Qi smiled calmly, "My prince, sometimes it is best to let someone die in revenge. There is also something more painful than death, and that is to say, having a life worse than death." She said her last sentence almost word by word.

Without waiting for King Duanren to say anything, Shen Qi continued, "If he wanted to make it difficult for chenqie, then killing her would be the best choice. He only needed to add fuel to the fire by saying a few words that would harm chenqie's good name and send her straight to hell.

"How can This King be the type of person who can provoke someone with just a few words?" Duke Xian's tone was ordinary, but Shen Qi could also hear his anger.

"Then if his words are particularly explicit, is the prince certain that there is no estrangement in his heart?" Shen Qi was not afraid of his coldness and asked directly. Although he knew what was going on, it would not be so easy to face it.

No matter how nice her words were, she couldn't suppress the doubts in her heart. Once she planted a seed of doubt, she would one day grow into a towering tree. At that time, how would she be able to control herself?

No matter what she said in the beginning, it didn't matter what kind of plan she came up with. However, if she really did hear about it, then it was reasonable for her to be cold, but the thing he was angry about was that she was able to understand the hearts of men so well, which made him very unhappy.

Those eyes were clear and bright, and at first glance they only seemed naive and inexperienced, but when you looked more closely you would see that they were not the limpidity of a person who did not know anything about the world, but rather the clarity of a person who could see through everything. The look in those eyes made one want to destroy something.

This meant that the position of the Queen's Consort was negligible to her. Furthermore, all of this was not even in her eyes, including her, the King Duan.

It's one thing if I don't care, it's another to be ignored by others. If it wasn't for the imperial edict, I wouldn't have gotten married, right? Knowing was one thing, and letting others point it out like that was another matter. Duke Xian felt that he had been harmed.

Shen Qi wanted to curse out loud. You were the one who pushed me into such an awkward situation, and now you're blaming me? Was there any justice in this situation? She felt that for the past dozen years, her ability to cultivate the mind of others had almost been broken by Prince Duanren's words.

Shen Qi was flustered and exasperated, she could not reason with him, "It's not that I want to move over, but I have to. Your Highness, please say something, what do you want me to do?" At this time, even I came out. No matter how good her temper is, she's going to get angry.

Hearing her tone, King Xian was instead overjoyed. He was no longer as calm and collected as he always was. Now that his mood had improved, he said lightly, "Move to Cang Lan Yuan."

Shen Qi took a deep breath, stood up and bowed, "Yes, chenqie obeys." After saying that, she stood up and left. If she stayed any longer, she wouldn't be able to guarantee that she wouldn't want to hit someone. However, she had reason to do that. She, the victim, had no excuse!

As Shen Qi angrily walked out of the Cang Lan Yuan, Zi Zhu and the others discovered that their princess' face wasn't looking too good, so they didn't dare say anything further. They followed Shen Qi back to the wutong garden, and even looked at Zi Zhu, wanting to ask what was going on.

When the servants and guards of Cang Lan Yuan found out that the mistress had left with a bad complexion, they all returned to their rooms. When they realized that their master was actually smiling for the first time, the guards almost thought that they were seeing things. At the same time, they were especially puzzled as to what had happened.

However, no one dared to ask too many questions, and King Duanren quickly calmed himself down. Thinking of the last few words that the wangfei said, based on his understanding of that person, it really was his style. It had to be said that this wangfei was very smart.

Originally, it was not very pleasing for him to be a bride to begin with. However, this matter had directly reduced their relationship to a freezing point, so how could he make his Imperial Concubine vent her displeasure and guard against him?
