Chapter 63: A nagging feeling part 2
Last time, when the Princess was sleeping for a few days, he and Gui Mei was
handling matters, so they didn’t get a chance to see how the Princess knew that
there was Gu in the pot of soup. Master was present, so he should know why right?
When Gui Mei heard Gui Ying’s words, his heart was filled with fear.
If what Gui Ying said was true, then wouldn’t their Princess be too heavenly defying?
She knows medicine, knows poison, and knows the method of Gu. She knew
everything! How the heck did the Empress Dowager choose this person? How
could she have chosen such a powerful woman to marry the Qi King?
However, this Princess of theirs hides her secrets really deeply and acts extremely
normal. They couldn’t even tell if she was a friend or a foe. Seeing the way that she
treated those few women who came over, it seems like Princess wasn’t on their side.
Although the Princess wasn’t simple, she acts really normal. The Princess was also
very nice to every servants in the Manor. Hopefully their Princess can continue to be
so normal. So far, she has made a good impression on everyone in the Qi King’s
Manor. Gui Mei hopes that this good impression the Princess left will never change
into something bad.
While thinking, Long Xiao Ze’s dark black eyes opened, and the corners of his
mouth curved up. His voice was soft, but his tone was cold and said, “This King is
very curious about other secrets that she may be hiding.”
After he finished speaking, he leaped into the sky. He flew up to the peak of the
pavillion. He crossed his hands as if he was the god of the night, looking down on
everything beneath him. His beautiful black eyes looked off into the distance. No
one knew what he was thinking about at this moment.
Long Xiao Yu’s words that he spoke were a play on words. He answered Gui
Ying’s question and said that he was interested only in Mu Zi Ling, not the Gu. He
also said that this was not the only reason that he was curious about Mu Zi Ling.
When Gui Ying and Gui Mei heard Long Xiao Yu’s words, they were speechless.
Although they are already used to being ordered to investigate stuff because of Mu
Zi Ling, they only thought that Long Xiao Yu was trying to see if she was on the
Empress Dowager’s side.
Now it seems like it wasn’t so simple. Gui Ying and Gui Mei has followed Long Xiao
Yu for a very long time, so they naturally knew what was going on.
It seems like their Qi King was finally interested in a woman. It also wasn’t just a
simple interest. They were really curious about whether or not they will have a true
female master.
If that day does arrive, then would the sky rain red?
However, why does Master not know how the Princess found out about the Gu?
Wasn’t Master present that day?
If the Princess really didn’t say anything, with Master’s personality, he would never
ask her directly. However, Le Tian was different. Le Tian would definitely ask the
Princess questions. Could it be that Le Tian also didn’t ask her?
If Gui Ying and Gui Mei knew that Le Tian didn’t ask those important questions
because he asked too much needless questions, would they go beat him up?
The Qi King’s mood was also really bad that day for the Qi Princess answering Le
Tian’s infuriating question.
After the Princess foolishly answered “Why?”, Le Tian also slipped away and left.
Who knows if Gui Ying and Gui Mei knew about this, would the sky rain red again?
Long Xiao Yu turned his deep gaze in the direction of the Yu Han Palace. After a
long time, he opened his mouth and coldly said, “Keep on paying attention to the
Empress. As for everything else, don’t bother with it.”
After coldly saying these few words, Long Xiao Yu left and went in the direction of
the Yu han palace.

Mu Zi Ling’s mood was very bad today, because she was played by the An Ya
Princess. After all, being fooled like an idiot by someone was not something to be
proud of. The more she thought about it, the angrier she felt. Why was she so
foolish back there?
Even when eating dinner, she didn’t have much of an appetite. She sucked on the
ends of her chopsticks for a long time and didn’t move.
When Xie saw that Mu Zi Ling was staring off into space without any light in her
eyes, she reminded her, “Young Miss… Young Miss, if you don’t eat, then the food
will turn cold.
Mu Zi Ling regained her consciousness and said, “Xie, I can’t eat anymore. You can
take the plates down.
“Young Miss, what is wrong with you? After you saw the An Ya Princess leave, your
mood has not been good all day. Are you worried that the An Ya Princess will report
this to the Empress Dowager?” asked Xie.
Young Miss was fine all the way up until then. She even played with the Second
Young Miss and scared he badly. However, why did her mood suddenly change
after the An Ya Princess left?
“I hoped for them to leave early today.” Mu Zi ling set her chopsticks down and laid
herself down on the table
If she could’ve spot what An Ya Princess was trying to do early on, then none of
this would’ve happened. She should’ve saw something when she noticed that An
Ya Princess’s heartbeat sped up so fast.
However, she still foolishly thought that she was angering the An Ya Princess. She
needs to thoroughly think about this unhappy matter.
“Young Miss, you..”Xie wanted to say something, but she saw a person in white
walking towards them out of the corner of her eyes.
Xie raised her head to see who was coming, and she stopped her words. She
was startled, and she even forgot to warn Mu Zi Ling. Xie only quickly pushed Mu
Zi Ling’s elbow to grab her attention.
Mu Zi Ling still remained unmoved and displeasingly said, “Xie, I really don’t feel
like eating right now, just let me be alone for a bit.”
When Mu Zi Ling finished talking, she still didn’t raise her head. She still continued
to lay down on the table. At this moment, someone that came from outside has
already walked close.
“Your…. Your highness…” stuttered Xie.
