C86 (1/2)

”I'm full now. I'll wait for the next full moon.”

Ruo Lan came in from outside with a letter. ”Miss, the princess has sent you an invitation.”

Qiao Liangjin's eyebrows twitched. These ancient ladies, was there really nothing to do? All day long, she had been competing for jealousy. Was the purpose of this post merely to know why she had made a noise in the Seventh Marquis' Mansion last night?

Ruo Lan tilted her head and asked, ”Miss, are you going?” If you don't go, I'll return to the guard. ”

Qiao Liangjin actually didn't want to go. When she saw Yu Linglong's sinister look, she felt that she had lost her appetite. Recently, she had been sick and didn't want to get angry, but she didn't want to be scared.

Arriving at the princess' mansion, the moment he entered, he saw a long tea table with delicate plates placed on it. It was filled with enthusiasm and was in the middle of the room. On the left was Princess Nangong and on the right was Princess Yu Linglong.

Seeing Qiao Liangjin come in, Yu Linglong straightened her back and nodded with a slight smile. She then scolded the two guards, ”What did you do? After going for so long, you made the Seventh Prince wait here for so long.”

Hearing this, Qiao Liangjin nodded her head.

This Yu Linglong was really more scheming than Nangong. She had already started firing at him without batting an eyelid.

The guard quickly kneeled on one knee and explained, ”The servants deserve to die. The servants have been waiting for a long time at the Prime Minister's Residence …”

”I've only just woken up and I've been sick recently. So, it's only now that I've put on my clothes, consumed some medicine, and it's also about time to drag things out. Don't blame them anymore, Your Highness.” Qiao Liangjin emphasized the last four words.

Seeing that Qiao Liangjin had arrived, Qing Shui pointed at the steamed bun in front of him and smiled: ”This steamed bun feels pretty good.”

Nangong used his chopsticks to pick up the steamed buns and stuffed them into his mouth, nodding continuously, ”The taste is indeed not bad.”

Qiao Liangjin found a seat and sat down. Ha, in front of her was the chicken she had been thinking about for a long time. What good luck.

Qiao Liangjin raised her chopsticks and placed the whole chicken in front of him. Then, she tore off a piece of the chicken leg and started eating with relish.

When she raised her head, she discovered that other than the two girls who were currently eating, the other two girls were looking at her in surprise.

She looked at the chicken on her plate and seemed to have made up her mind. She put the rest of the chicken back on the plate and said, ”Since you guys also like to eat, then you guys can have some as well.”

Nangong curled his lips and shook his head. ”Your chopsticks have already been touched and you're still letting us eat. How disgusting.”

Qiao Liangjin blinked her eyes and picked up the chicken back into her plate and said: ”Then I'll eat it myself. Anyway, I gave it to you, you guys won't eat it.”

Yu Linglong coughed softly and said with alluring eyes, ”Seventh Prince, our Big Miss Qiao's appetite is really good.”

Qing Qing smilingly looked at Qiao Liangjin, then pointed at the red prawn in front of her and said: ”This one is also delicious, you should try it too.”

Yu Ling's smile froze for a moment, but she immediately picked up a piece of fish and placed it on the plate in front of Qing Shui. She said, ”The taste of this Yellow Flower Fish is extremely good. Please try it, Your Highness.”

He cleared his throat with a polite smile.

Yu Linglong smiled and gracefully poured another cup of wine for Su Qing. ”This is the wine I want from the West. Please have a taste.”

Nangong creased his eyebrows and looked at Yu Linglong's smile. He had a bad taste in his heart. He carelessly poked the vegetable dish in front of him and asked, ”My prince, do you have any vegetable dish that you like to eat?”

Qing Qing put down her chopsticks and smiled lightly. ”This King has already eaten his fill.”

Qiao Liangjin blinked her eyes. She was greedily nibbling on the chicken in front of him while looking at Qing Shui. How could this guy's appetite be so small? She's almost finished eating a chicken, and he's so full without eating anything? Why is there such a huge gap between people?

Yu Ling then put down her chopsticks and smiled, ”I heard that Miss Qiao is always having accidents recently. How about this, I have some guards here who are skilled in martial arts and want to give them to Miss Qiao. How about that?”

Clear brows slightly raised, the voice said slowly: ”Oh? Guards? You want to gift it to me? ”

There was no hint of happiness or anger in his tone. Yu Linglong smiled and said, ”No matter what, Miss Qiao is a woman like me and my bodyguard is also a woman. It is very easy to take care of her.”

”Is that so?” He cleared his throat with a faint smile.

Yu Ling's heart skipped a beat, she didn't know what was the point of clearing up that smile.

”I say, Princess, you really have a bad habit of playing the zither in the middle of the night. Last night, I was discussing some matters with the Prince, but you played the zither instead. It really makes me unhappy.” After eating half a chicken, Qiao Liangjin finally let out a burp.

When Yu Linglong thought about that loud roar last night, her face immediately darkened, but in an instant, her expression turned into a gentle smile: ”That's because I'm not sensible. Miss Qiao, don't mind me. How about it? How about my guards give you a few? ”

”Not good.” The voice was firm.

Yu Linglong and Nangong were stunned. They didn't understand why Su Qing had resolutely refused.

There was still a smile in the corner of her eyes, but it was a cold smile. Looking at Yu Linglong's smiling face, the smile made her shiver for no reason.

Yu Linglong gave a dry smile and waved her hand, ”Since Prince has refused on behalf of Miss Qiao, then I won't say any more. Otherwise, it would be disrespectful.”
