Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Prince Arrives
Because of that strange dream, Qin Qianjue had no sleep all night. At dawn the next day, she was dressed neatly under the service of several palace maids.
Looking at her fuzzy face in the bronze mirror, Qin Qianjue sighed slightly, in this ancient world, everything was strange to her, she found that she missed everything in her previous life very much at this time, the mirror that could be seen clearly in her previous life, the computer and mobile phone that could convey information, the social system where everyone was equal, everything made her miss it incomparably.
She didn't know what her mission was in this ancient world, but last night's dream gave her some clues, but the clues were too vague for her to figure out for a while.
"Princess, the county lord instructed the slave maid to tell the princess that the princess would go to the hall after breakfast, saying that the prince was coming." A maid who helped Qin Qianjue comb her hair said respectfully.
"The prince is coming?" Qin Qianjue's hands on her knees trembled unconsciously, but there was nothing wrong with her face.
"Yes, that's what the county lord said to the slaves." The maid replied respectfully.
"Yes, I see." Qin Qianjue said calmly, but his heart was not calm.
The prince is coming, it should be because his subordinates didn't go back last night, worried that the matter will be revealed, so come to check, I wanted to find time to go to the rockery this morning to see if he left any clues, now the prince is here, it seems that he can't go, I hope he didn't leave any clues. Qin Qianjue prayed silently in his heart.
Breakfast was hurriedly exhausted, Qin Qianjue went to the hall accompanied by several maids, on the way there, she tried to adjust her mentality, and soon made her mood calm, which only someone who has been an agent can do in such a short time.
"Sister-in-law, why did you come so early, have you had breakfast?" As soon as he entered the door, Mu Qingcheng greeted him with a smile.
"Well, I've already used it, I know that the prince is coming, and I can't be rude, so I came here early to wait." Qin Qianjue smiled and said simply. This Mu Chengcheng will come in handy in the future, and it must be stabilized for the time being.
"Hehe, that's good, I'm afraid that Allure is because of his poor hospitality, so my sister-in-law didn't sleep well." The feeling that this woman gives herself is always uneasy and it seems that she still needs to pay more attention to it Mu Tingcheng whispered in his heart.
The two sat down on a chair on the side of the room, Mu Tingcheng picked up the tea on the small table next to the chair and tasted it gently, then smiled and pursed his lips: "Sister-in-law, this tea is a tribute tea in the palace, brewed with dew this morning, it is very mellow, sister-in-law taste it quickly, see if you like it." ”
In this ancient time, I finally met a woman who knew tea. Qin Qianjue nodded vigorously, then picked up the teacup lightly, and tasted it slightly like Mu Chengcheng: "Well, this tea is really fragrant, and the dew stimulates all the aromas in it." Some people may wonder why she didn't pretend not to drink tea, in fact, she can't drink tea, people who understand tea know at a glance that if she deliberately pretends not to, it will make Mu Tingcheng suspicious, it is better to show her own strengths, so that she can feel at ease.
"I didn't expect my sister-in-law to be a tea lover." Mu Qingcheng was a little surprised, Qin Qianjue really couldn't see that she was a tea reader on the surface, but it could also be seen from this that she was not a simple person.
"It's just a hobby, because tea is the only thing that keeps me meditating." Qin Qianjue is telling the truth, she was an agent in her previous life, and when she was an actor, she was often either busy or dangerous, and she was under a lot of pressure, only tea could bring her a moment of tranquility and serenity when she felt out of breath, so tea tasting is a big hobby in her life, and it is estimated that this hobby will accompany her for life.
"Sister-in-law, I agree with your point of view, tea tasting is the best way to calm the nerves and nourish your qi." Mu Qingcheng agrees with Qin Qianjue's point of view, there are conspiracies everywhere in this deep palace, she must be vigilant at all times to survive here, she is very tired of living, and she will only feel relaxed when she tastes tea.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived." In the distance, there was a small man's signal.
Mu Qingcheng and Qin Qianjue immediately stood up from their positions, walked to the door, and bowed to the prince who was walking from a distance: "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
The prince quickened his pace and walked up to the two, chuckled and said, "Okay, no need to be polite, get up quickly." ”
"His Royal Highness Prince Xie." The two stood up and stood in front of the prince with a smile.
Mu Qingcheng was the first to speak: "How can Brother Prince have time to come to the cold house?" "Mu Qingcheng has always been taboo against the prince, not to mention that the prince is the opponent of Sun Ji, let's just say that he is a typical smiling fox, full of scheming, unscrupulous in doing things, and the same as the second prince, which makes her very annoying.
"You girl, why don't you welcome me?" The smile on the prince's face was very easy-going, if it hadn't happened last night, Qin Qian would really think that he was an easy-going person.
It's not that Qin Qian will never look at people, but the prince pretends to be too similar, like this kind of person who is good at disguise, it really takes time to see through him, so Qin Qianjue thinks that he is still relatively lucky, at least he has recognized his true face before he has come into contact with this person.
"Qianjue is also there." The prince noticed Qin Qianjue, who was standing aside and silent, and greeted Qin Qianjue in a familiar tone.
Qin Qian never expected that he would treat himself with such a familiar attitude, and he was stunned for a moment.
"Why can't you forget me so quickly?" Seeing Qin Qianjue stunned there, the prince opened his mouth to joke. Qin Qianjue didn't marry himself, he has always regretted it, if it weren't for Qin Yulan's slut, he would have completed the great cause of the country with the help of Qin Qianjue, why do you need to turn so many corners.
"The prince laughed, the prince is Qianjue's brother-in-law, how could Qianjue forget the prince." Qin Qianjue dealt with it carefully, she couldn't figure out the prince's thoughts now, so it was easy not to offend him.
"Your sister misses you very much, let's go with her more when I'm free in the future." The prince didn't dwell too much on that issue and immediately changed the subject.
"Yes, I will visit my sister more often in the future." Qin Qianjue replied meekly. She thought that Qin Yulan should not be doing well now, listening to Ping'er say that if she hadn't made the prince marry her, maybe the prince could use his mysterious background to ascend to the throne, so she hated Qin Yulan the most, but she was her so-called sweetheart.
It's ironic to think about it, desperately marrying the past, but marrying the person who hates you the most, is there anything more ironic than this? Qin Qianjue thought with some schadenfreude.
The three of them then entered the house and took their seats, the crown prince sat on the top seat, and Qin Qianjue and Mu Chengcheng sat on the chairs on both sides.
"Today, I have an important matter to trouble Allure." After the prince sat down, he explained his intention, Qin Qianjue knew that the point was coming, and his heart tightened slightly.
