"You!" Hearing Shui Qingyan's words, Phoenix Yaoling became a little angry: "Just based on your attitude, if it wasn't for your relationship with Feng Zitong, you would have died a long time ago!"

"Is that so?" Shui Qingyan laughed sarcastically: "According to the legends, when the Great Mage raised his hand, he could kill someone without leaving a trace, but he could also save someone without leaving a trace. I am very interested to experience it today."

"You!" Phoenix Yaoling's eyes flashed with killing intent, her fingers moved.

Suddenly, Phoenix Yaoling flung her sleeves, and walked out: "You don't want to have any interaction with me, I insist on appearing in front of you everyday, for your face, I am confident, as for whether or not you are willing to treat my eyes, that is up to you." After she finished speaking, there was only the heavy sound of the door opening and the heavy sound of the door closing.

Shui Qingyan's expression did not change, but the corner of her mouth slightly curved in a serious manner.

She had already angered Phoenix Yaoling to such an extent, but Phoenix Yaoling was still able to endure the pain and not make a move against her.

Seeing the heaviness on the corner of Shui Qingyan's mouth, the corner of Chu Chen's mouth hooked up into a faint smile. Although he didn't know how Shui Qingyan met Feng Zitong, he was certain that Shui Qingyan and Feng Zitong had some sort of relationship.

Thinking about Chu Chen, "Liuyi."

Liuyi appeared like the wind, glanced at Shui Qingyan who was on the bed, then looked at him and asked: "Liu Si will go with her."

"Tell Doctor Shui that the Fourth Miss is in the Prince Chu Palace." After saying that, Chu Chen removed a piece of jade from his waist and placed it on the table, "Before I send Fourth Miss back to the Shui’s Marion, tell her people to not go and receive her."

"Yes." Liuyi took the jade and disappeared.

Shui Qingyan looked in the direction of Chu Chen, raised his eyebrows, and slowly spoke: "prince, could it be that you don't know that I have an engagement with Second Prince?"

"Got it." Chu Chen looked at Shui Qingyan and spoke indifferently.

The corner of Shui Qingyan's mouth raised into a faint smile, "Does this prince not know that what you're doing doesn't conform with Yu Li?"

Chu Chen watched Shui Qingyan quietly, for a long time, he only said one word: "I don't know."

Shui Qingyan smiled and nodded: "Let me tell you now, as the future Second Princess, it is inappropriate for me to be brought back from the Prince Chu Palace by father. Especially you, Prince Chu, who aren't married, I'm not married. Once upon a time, the Shui family had caused a case of humiliation to the royal family. "No matter how magnanimous the Emperor is, he won't allow anyone to slap him a second time."

Chu Chen nodded and did not say a word.

Shui Qingyan continued to speak, "Furthermore, since ancient times, a concubine has not been forced to ascend the throne. The Shui family's direct daughter does not know shame, and if word of her disrespectful conduct were to spread, the nurturing of her Shui’s Marion would be completely negated. The most important thing is, if the emperor blames me when the time comes, I'll be in an extremely awkward situation. "

"It doesn't matter." Chu Chen faintly spat out three words that were enough to choke Shui Qingyan to death.

"If I were to lose face for the imperial family, I would be soaked in a pig cage. I'm afraid of death." Shui Qingyan laughed gently, and her tone was filled with the faint sound of grinding teeth.

"Before I die, you will live." Chu Chen was still very calm.

After Shui Qingyan heard this, she raised her eyebrows, used her legs to lift up his shoes, and put them on.

Since it didn't make sense, she didn't plan on saying anything else. When Liuyi arrived at the capital, he was afraid that his Shui’s Marion was already at the bottom. If Liuyi told Shui Yiyuan about this, he would be able to tell the difference between good and bad. By the looks of it, he wasn't afraid of spreading the news. Furthermore, as long as he hurried back before daybreak, he was not afraid of anything.

Right now, even though she was unable to confirm if Phoenix Yaoling was plotting something against her, at this moment, she was certain that this prince before her was truly plotting something against her.

After putting on the shoes, Shui Qingyan wanted to stand up, but she couldn't muster up any strength, so she took the bottle of Energy Recovery Pill, opened the stopper, poured out the medicine and ate it.

Without strength, it was inconvenient for her, and Yu Niang was still unconscious. On the way there, she accidentally met some crazy gamblers or crazy people who drank too much, what if they suddenly attacked her? She did not want to be trampled on, so she had to use a Energy Replenishing Pill to recover her strength.

He stood up and tried to move his feet, but his body was obviously swaying left and right, causing him to be unable to do so. He could only sit down and look towards Seventeen as he asked, "Seventeen, can you come over and help me out?"

Seventeen looked at Chu Chen and saw that he did not say a word, so he lifted his foot and walked over.

Hearing footsteps coming over, Shui Qingyan asked again: How much money did you win?

"Miss has four hundred thousand silver on her account." Seventeen stood in front of Shui Qingyan, then passed the veil to Shui Qingyan, "Miss, if you leave this room, please wear the veil."

Shui Qingyan nodded, and then took the veil and put it on.

Seventeen was a little shocked. He didn't understand why Shui Qingyan was so calm when he heard that she had four hundred thousand gold. She had lost her eyes for this.

Shui Qingyan's attention was not focused at all on the four hundred thousand taels. Even though she was communicating with the Seventeen again, all of her attention was placed on the other person in the room.

With Shui Qingyan's intelligence, she naturally felt the respect Seventeen had for him. And because of that, Shui Qingyan came to the conclusion that Qingfeng Stronghold was Chu Chen's idea.

If she guessed correctly, Shui Qingyan decided to not provoke this Chu Chen who dared to open this kind of casino under the heavens. In a casino like this, from the guards to the servants, to training so many talented people, it wasn't something that could be done by ordinary means.

For example, the person who blew the bamboo whistle was able to maintain the penetrating sound of the whistle even in such a noisy environment. It wasn't something that an ordinary person could do.

Thinking about everything that had happened, Shui Qingyan couldn't help but shiver. With her current ability, she was truly insignificant in front of Chu Chen.

She hoped that she guessed wrong, that Chu Chen wasn't so stubborn towards Snake King, and that Chu Chen wasn't the boss of Qingfeng Stronghold. If possible, she also wished that she had never met Chu Chen before.

The Seventeen didn't think Shui Qingyan was aware that four hundred thousand silver was the total salary that Shui Yiyuan had to pay as a national doctor for ten years, which was about five years' worth of total income from the Shui’s Marion.

Seventeen extended his arm, and lent it to Shui Qingyan to support Shui Qingyan.

Shui Qingyan held onto Seventeen's arm, borrowing the force she stood up: "How is Yu Niang?"

"The poison has been resolved. I'm afraid we'll need to rest for a while." Seventeen's tone carried the usual gentle smile.

"Can I leave the Qingfeng Stronghold now?" Shui Qingyan laughed.

"Miss, all procedures have been completed. You can leave at any time." The Seventeen nodded.

"That's good. I'll have to trouble Seventeen to send us to the Ma Ji Town Inn." Shui Qingyan nodded her head, it would be best if she could leave this place, the earlier she gets the better, the faster the better. At the Ma Ji Town Inn, Shui Clan's carriage was still waiting there, the driver did not know that she had arrived at Qingfeng Stronghold.

Seventeen raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and looked at Shui Qingyan while deep in thought: "Could it be that this is Miss's first time here? Do you know the rules of Qingfeng Stronghold? "

Shui Qingyan raised her eyebrows, could it be that there was some unwritten rule regarding Qingfeng Stronghold? She looked in the direction of the Seventeen: "This is indeed my first time here."

Seventeen was slightly surprised upon hearing this. He remembered that when she entered, her eyes swept around the surroundings, and he was not surprised at all. When he went up to receive his, his face was also calm. It was completely different from the performance of the two maidservants she brought with her.

He had thought that Shui Qingyan was a regular customer of this place, but this was actually the first time she had come.

Thinking about it, Seventeen could not help but laugh. Shui Qingyan had always brought him many surprises.

He had seen plenty of ruthless girls before, but Shui Qingyan was only ruthless to the two maids. She did not hate or hate him even though it was her first time meeting Yu Niang.

He had seen quite a few young men with kung fu skills, but he had never seen anyone lower their status to compete in a competition, much less someone who was so decisive.

He had seen extremely cultured and talented people before. However, regardless of who it was, this was the first time that he had seen such a thing. His eyes were filled with curiosity. Only her eyes were filled with calmness and calmness.

Shaking his head, Seventeen opened his mouth and said: "Miss is the winner of tonight, there will be a car with Qingfeng Stronghold specially sent back. Once someone steals the carriage, according to the style of Qingfeng Stronghold, they will chase you to the ends of the earth."

"If I die, what's the point of chasing me to the ends of the earth?" Shui Qingyan could not help but roll her eyes.

Shui Qingyan had always brought him surprises. Seventeen had only wanted to express that no one dared to rob the car with Qingfeng Stronghold, but she hadn't thought that Shui Qingyan would actually understand it that way.

Chu Chen slowly curled the corner of his lips. Shui Qingyan's understanding was also correct, as Chu Chen could tell from the way Shui Qingyan was thinking that she always had a sense of danger. Just as Phoenix Yaoling had said, she felt extremely insecure.

Just like this, Shui Qingyan walked to the door under the guidance of the Seventeen.

By the door, Shui Qingyan stood still, then looked in the direction of Chu Chen with a smile on his face: "prince, thank you for helping me earlier.

"Thank you, thank you." Chu Chen turned to look at Shui Qingyan and laughed, his tone indifferent, but Seventeen could not help but exclaim. Not only did this woman bring him a lot of surprises, she had also attracted Chu Chen's attention.

Seventeen has known Chu Chen for sixteen years.

In these sixteen years, Seventeen had never seen Chu Chen appear in public before in order to catch a certain girl's falling body without a care for the dirt on her body.

He had never seen Chu Chen use up the Inner Qi to nurture a girl's Meridians.

He had never seen a girl who could make him smile.

He had also never seen a woman who personally requested for a gift from Chu Chen.

But this woman in front of him had done it.

Seventeen thought and sighed in his heart. The prey that Chu Chen had his eyes on had never escaped, he just didn't know what Chu Chen wanted from this woman.

After Shui Qingyan heard this, she shook her head and smiled: "It's nothing, there's no need to thank me. "Farewell."

As he spoke, he walked out of the room. Without even looking back, he felt like he was about to escape.
