Chapter 14 - Self-harm? Self-defense?

Facing his eyes that was filled with ridicule, Wei Qing was on guard.

Xiao Qingqian ordered Die'er to bring him a bowl and chopsticks, and started to eat, occasionally glancing at Wei Qing.

Originally, Wei Qing was very happy that she had let go of Tian Sisi's right hand and arm today, but she also vented her resentment in her heart. Of course, Xiao Qingqian seemed to not be able to see her well, so he deliberately came over to disgust her!

She tossed the bowl and chopsticks onto the table, got up, and prepared to leave.

"Wei Qing!"

Xiao Qingqian's cold voice pierced his ears, causing him to halt in his steps. She turned her head to look at him, "Prince, take your time to eat. I've eaten too much. I want to go out and eat!"

"Oh?" Xiao Qingqian's gaze quickly swept across the untouched dishes on the table, and then put down the tableware. "Since that's the case, then this duke will accompany Princess Hua-Yang to go and eat some food!"

Wei Qing frowned, was this Xiao Qingqian planning to become a toad and not bite anyone?

Curling her lips, she barely managed to pull out a smile. "Your Highness, I have received your kind intentions wholeheartedly!" I don't feel bloated now. "

She sat down again, not looking at Xiao Qingqian.

But just because she did not look at Xiao Qingqian, did that not mean that Xiao Qingqian did not look at her.

Being locked in place by his unfathomable eyes, Wei Qing's scalp went numb, and a chill ran down his spine.

She stealthily glanced at Xiao Qingqian who had an elegant demeanor, and muttered in her heart: Why are you so damn slow?

"Does it look good?" he asked with a smile.

Wei Qing was startled, she pursed her lips: "Your Highness, we will not beat around the bush! Bi Yao spread the rumors first, and I did so for no personal reason! "

"Then there are other reasons."

Xiao Qingqian realized something interesting. When he saw him, he seemed to have changed his personality, his mouth became smarter as well, and his lies started to slip!

Wei Qing's eyes quickly turned around, and stiffly pulled out a smile, "Isn't it all for the face of the prince?"

Xiao Qingqian let out a light "Ah", he suddenly stood up, walked over the table and grabbed Wei Qing's chin.

Wei Qing only felt as if her lower jaw would shatter at any moment. She frowned, and clenched her fist tightly under her sleeve, forcing herself to look into his eyes that were filled with killing intent without fear.

The two of them looked at each other like this for a while. Xiao Qingqian's eyebrows creased even deeper, and there was an additional touch of analysis in his eyes.

This clear and beautiful face without makeup actually didn't look that repulsive!

"Has the princess thought of a way to prove her innocence?"

Under the abnormally oppressive and cramped atmosphere, Xiao Qingqian's words were like a knife with a sharp blade made of ice, mercilessly piercing into Wei Qing's chest, causing all the blood in her body to completely freeze at this moment.

"What does Your Highness mean?" A hint of coldness appeared in her eyes.

"Wei Qing, you are plotting with all your might, don't you want this king to favor you?"

These words, had thoroughly raised the anger in Wei Qing's heart to the limit!

"Xiao Qingqian, do you think you are a god or something? In Tian Sisi's eyes, you who are like a god, are nothing more than fart! "

Hearing that, the chill around Xiao Qingqian's body became increasingly stronger, the strength of his hands also gradually increased.

Wei Qing was in extreme pain!

It was as if two flames were burning within Xiao Qingqian's eyes. He glared at Wei Qing in an aggressive manner, and after a long while, he laughed in extreme anger.

This laughter, was extremely terrifying. What Wei Qing needed to endure now was not only the pain in her body, but also the pain in her heart.

Xiao Qingqian unceremoniously grabbed her hand and rushed back into the palace.

Wei Qing staggered along with him, and bumped into various decorations several times. It was so painful that she grimaced in pain.

Xiao Qingqian flung his hand with force, causing Wei Qing to fall flat on the bed. He looked extremely miserable, and the pain in his chest was even more severe.

She slowed down for a moment, and turned to glare at Xiao Qingqian.

Die'er disregarded everything and wanted to pounce on Wei Qing when she saw her being bullied, but Xiao Qingqian simply released a stream of inner Qi to seal Die'er's acupuncture points.

"Wei Qing, let this king have a good look at your abilities!"

With that, Xiao Qingqian slowly walked towards Wei Qing, causing his heart to stop. Her two hands supported herself on the bed, and as Xiao Qingqian got closer, she quickly pulled out the only jade hairpin on her head.

Xiao Qingqian squinted his eyes dangerously, and said with a solemn and cold voice. "Wei Qing, you have to think about whether or not you'll be alive if you go down this path!"

Wei Qing fearlessly looked at him, "Xiao Qingqian, I wasn't scared to death!"

"What do you mean?"

Wei Qing pressed the sharp end of the jade hairpin against her neck, using a bit of force, beads of captivating red blood oozed out, making her skin that was white like jade to emit a kind of strange beauty.

"If the direct daughter of the Prime Minister marries into the Prince Chu’s Mansion and dies unexpectedly in a short period of time, I wonder how the prince will explain this!"

Xiao Qingqian never thought that Wei Qing would actually use his own life to threaten him!

"Do you think This King will mind?"

"If Your Highness didn't care, how could you have unwillingly married me?" Wei Qing smiled as she said these threatening words.

The killing intent in Xiao Qingqian's eyes became stronger. "Wei Qing, do you think this duke is scared?"

Wei Qing raised her eyebrows and said, "It seems that Your Highness feels that I am joking with Your Highness?"

Die'er understood Wei Qing's character very well, since she dared to say that, she would definitely dare to do so!

"Eldest Miss, you must not do anything stupid!" Die'er said in a choked voice.

Xiao Qingqian smirked, and did not hide his ridicule: "This is truly interesting, master and servant singing together is truly exciting!"

"Your highness thinks it's wrong!"

Following her words, the jade hairpin in Wei Qing's hand pierced into her white neck. Immediately, the smell of blood filled the entire hall, and blood quickly dyed Wei Qing's collar red.

Die'er was completely scared and shouted, "Young Miss!"

She wanted to run over and support Wei Qing, but she couldn't move. She was so anxious that she could only cry.

Xiao Qingqian was shocked by the decisiveness in Wei Qing's eyes!

After being stunned for a moment, he rushed in front of Wei Qing, and quickly tapped on the big acupoint on Wei Qing's neck a few times with her hand. Then, he released a stream of his inner force and spoke to Die'er with an urgent tone: "What are you still standing there for? Go get a doctor! "

Although Die'er was worried, her legs were rooted to the ground, and she couldn't even move a single step.

"Someone, go get an imperial physician!"

Seeing that Die'er was so useless, anger lingered in Xiao Qingqian's eyes as he instructed the hidden guards.

Although Wei Qing's strike just now seemed dangerous, it only avoided important blood vessels. Even so, this small body was still too weak.

Xiao Qingqian pinched Wei Qing's chin and shouted angrily, "Wei Qing, this king orders you to not to close your eyes!"

The corner of Wei Qing's mouth quirked, and she especially unrestrainedly squeezed out a sentence. "On what basis?"
