The empress was so angry that she trembled, unable to utter a complete sentence.

Xiao Hanqi then quickly moved his gaze back to the palace maids whose acupoints were sealed, and finally, his gaze fixed on the palace maids by the empress's side.

The palace maid briefly explained about what had just happened. The more she listened, the darker Xiao Hanqi's expression became.

The hand under his sleeve tightened little by little, and the hostility in his eyes became more and more intense.

Xiao Hanqi ordered the palace maids to pack up as soon as possible, and after persuading the empress a few more times, he quickly left the palace.

When the carriage was about to leave Prince Chu’s Mansion, Xiao Hanqi ordered the carriage driver to stop.

Since Wei Qing dared to cause trouble in the Yi Kun Palace so blatantly, then even if she were to run over and denounce her for her crimes, she would definitely try to quibble.

Right now, Xiao Qingqian was even more highly regarded by royal father, and with Wei Qing as his support, he could not fight them head on.

After frowning for a moment, he asked the carriage driver to turn around and the guards to find out where Long Xiaotian was.

After making up his mind, Xiao Hanqi decided to use a "coincidence".

With just a glance, he could tell that Xiao Hanqi wanted to join hands with him.

Originally, he could have toppled Xiao Qingqian with his own strength. However, Xiao Hanqi had come straight to his doorstep and was full of sincerity. With such a good opportunity right in front of him, he naturally wouldn't miss it.

"Crown Prince, you mean to say that you want to form an alliance with this prince?" Long Xiaotian raised his eyebrows and asked.

"The Second Prince has always kept a low profile in the Xie Jing all these years. The Second Prince is the one who has truly done great things!" Xiao Hanqi naturally could not avoid a flurry of flattery.

Long Xiaotian curled his lips, "Crown Prince, you flatter me."

"I am only speaking the truth! This Xie Jing will definitely become the treasure of the Second Prince in the future! "

These words made Long Xiaotian extremely happy, but he did not show it on the surface. He then picked up the teacup and shook it a few times before taking a bite out of it. "Crown Prince, you shouldn't speak carelessly of this."

This time, Xiao Hanqi was asking for it, and took the initiative to place it in his hands. If he was able to get what he wanted so easily, he would definitely not be grateful.

"I'm not spouting nonsense." Xiao Hanqi thought that Long Xiaotian would definitely make the wisest decision.

"This prince still has other things to do, so he'll be leaving first."

Hearing that, Xiao Hanqi's face completely froze, and when he regained his senses, Long Xiaotian had already left.

He became more and more puzzled, and was even a little angry, thinking that Long Xiaotian was simply pretending to be tall and proper with him.

He raised the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea.

He had wanted to pour the tea into his mouth, but as soon as the tea entered his mouth, a bitter taste gushed out of his mouth.

"Truly, they are all beast races that are hard to get along with." Xiao Hanqi flung his words angrily, flicked his sleeves, and left.

Not long after he left, a shadow quickly flashed into the room. It took a sip of tea on the table and quickly left.

Prince Chu’s Mansion.

Even though the Yi Kun Palace already knew that Wei Qing wasn't injured, Xiao Qingqian still wasn't at ease. The moment he entered the chamber, he rolled up her sleeves and very carefully examined her body.

The corner of Wei Qing's mouth twitched, "Do you want me to strip you naked and let you inspect it carefully?"

She had secretly prepared those powder for use just in case.

"Those palace maids were all poisoned by your powder and became silly. They relied on a bit of brute force for their work."

"So?" She raised her eyebrows.

"I'm not sure you didn't notice it before."

"You mean …" Wei Qing suddenly went closer boldly, her eyes filled with emotion: "You really want me to take off my clothes?"

Ever since Tian Sisi told him that the two of them had been infected by a parasite, Xiao Qingqian had been suppressing herself. This time, how could she bear Wei Qing's teasing?

His throat felt as if it was filled with sand. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva with great difficulty and said in a hoarse voice, "If you are willing, then it is not impossible!"

Wei Qing could not help but laugh, she extended his hand and pushed him away, then raised her voice: "Men are always this unruly?!"

Xiao Qingqian suddenly grabbed onto her hand, "Of course you can't take it!"

Wei Qing laughed and changed the topic, "The Emperor told me to prepare for the Mid-Autumn Festival, this burden is too heavy, I'm afraid I can't even make it myself."

"Husband!"

He didn't know when it started, but he liked hearing him say such things.

With him behind her, she felt like she could do anything without thinking too much.

Seeing her fleeting eyes, Xiao Qingqian frowned, "What are you thinking about?"

"Nothing, I just suddenly feel happy!" As she spoke, she leaned against his shoulder.

Xiao Qingqian lowered his eyebrows and kissed her forehead, "If there's anything you need help to prepare, just ask."

Wei Qing replied with a light "En".

A shadow suddenly appeared outside the hall. "Your Royal Highness, your subordinate has already investigated!"

"Speak."

"Long Xiaotian likes to drink bitter tea."

Wei Qing frowned, "Truly a pretentious person who likes to do pretentious things!"

"So, you want to prepare some bitter tea for him?"

Wei Qing shook her head.

Long Xiaotian acted in an obedient manner, you simply could not guess what he wanted to do.

But he was wary. Usually, when it was the size of a needle, he would be able to think of a possibility.

"We can't prepare bitter tea for him directly, but we need to prepare more or less."

"You already have an idea?" Xiao Qingqian raised his eyebrows.

Wei Qing nodded heavily.

Since he already had an idea, he would just have to implement it.

That night, Wei Qing got Xiao Qingqian to bring over the imperial garden's building blueprints. The two of them carefully discussed how to set up the maze, and how to set up the location of the Cold Meal.

As the candle flame burnt down bit by bit, the color of fish's belly turned white in the east.

The sun had risen high in the sky. Wei Qing yawned and was startled.

Xiao Qingqian is gone!

And she still needed to go to the Imperial Palace to set up the Imperial Garden!

He hastily put on his shoes and prepared to ask Xiao Qingqian if he had already entered the palace. He was too anxious and almost bumped into Die Er.

Die'er teased him, "Miss, are you in such a hurry because you're worried that the prince has run away with another woman?"

Wei Qing rolled her eyes at her in annoyance, "As expected, the nearer the better, you stinking girl have been led astray by Chen Cheng recently!"

Die'er smiled and said, "Your highness said that you slept late last night and told us servants not to disturb you. When you wake up, there will be a guard escorting you to the palace. I don't want you to be in a hurry."

Wei Qing heaved a sigh of relief, "I'm not eating, help me comb my hair into a bun."

Die'er continued, "Your Highness has also said it, he has already remembered your thoughts last night. If he were to make a move, he will definitely not delay the duration of the project, don't worry. "He deserves to eat and drink."

A huge wave of warmth emerged in Wei Qing's heart, quickly gushing towards her limbs and bones, pressing onto every cell of her body.
