Quick Wear: The Villain's Beloved

The Third Prince's Mansion.

With a "bang", another teacup broke.

"Father actually asked him to be in charge of the visit of the Crown Prince of Qi!"

In the study, the third prince had a gloomy expression.

"Master," the confidant said, "According to our dynasty's custom of receiving foreign envoys, the one coming from Qi should be the crown prince, so the one who welcomes the guests should also be the crown prince. However, the crown prince has not been appointed yet, but Your Majesty has sent the Prince of Chen to welcome the guests. I'm afraid the future crown prince's position..."

At least in His Majesty's mind, the position of Crown Prince belongs to Prince Chen.

"Of course I know what father means," the Third Prince snorted coldly, his face still gloomy, "Ever since we recognized Prince Chen, father has been telling us openly and secretly that the future of Yan Kingdom belongs to Prince Chen. But if father wants to give it to him, he has to see if he can hold on to it!"

"I'll make an appointment to meet with King Ning tomorrow."

"Yes."

"By the way, where is Xiaojiu?"

Haven't seen her for some time.

His good sister had tortured Mo Chen many times before. Now that Mo Chen had become the Prince of Chen, the person his father loved the most had also become the Prince of Chen. A former lowly secret guard had climbed over her head. How could the spoiled and willful Ninth Princess possibly tolerate this?

I wonder how she will deal with Mo Chen?

"I don't know."

"Ever since the Ninth Princess was assassinated and returned to the palace, His Majesty has not allowed anyone to visit her, and the Ninth Princess has not appeared in front of anyone."

No wonder I haven’t heard any news about her making a fuss recently.

However, given the emperor's current favor for Mo Chen, even if Xiaojiu makes a fuss, it probably won't change anything. The third prince pondered for a while.

"Forget it, there's no rush."

He calmed down.

"Go prepare for tomorrow first."

"Yes, I am resigning."

Inside the secret room.

Lan Qian slowly picked up the silver chain on her ankle, and her fair fingers slowly touched the silver ring wrapped in soft satin. The light blue ring between her knuckles seemed to appear for a moment, and then...

There was a "click".

The chains are untied.

She lowered her eyes slightly. Since Mo Chen was hiding something from her, she would...provoke him a little.

Lan Qian opened the door, but it did not lead directly to the outside. Instead, it led to an enclosed space about two meters wide, with some books placed inside and a pot of flowers against the other wall.

Her gaze lingered on the pot of flowers for a while. She walked over and gently turned it. As the pot turned, the wall next to it slowly opened to the size of a door.

After leaving this enclosed space, what you see is a bedroom.

The bedroom was empty at this time. Lan Qian looked around. Although this bedroom was not as luxurious as her previous palace, it was almost the same and not something that ordinary people could afford.

She saw the clothes Mo Chen wore two days ago in the closet.

There is no doubt that this is Mo Chen's bedroom.

Lan Qian narrowed her eyes and walked out of the hall.

There were two secret guards guarding the bedroom in the dark. They were specially arranged by Mo Chen, who knew that there was someone hiding inside. They were guarding here to prevent others from breaking into the bedroom and to protect Lan Qian's safety.

Seeing Lan Qian coming out, the two secret guards looked at each other.

Dark Guard One: "Why did this girl come out?"

Dark Guard II: "I don't know, what should I do now?"

The secret guard frowned, looking tangled: "The prince only said that no one is allowed to go in, but those who come out..."

Dark Guard II thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we follow secretly? If the girl is in danger, we can take action?"

Dark Guard One: "Good idea."

The two secret guards had never seen Lan Qian before and did not know her identity. They just thought she was the prince's person.

Lan Qian noticed the movement behind her and her eyes paused.

Seeing that they didn't show up, I continued walking forward.

This place is very quiet, and there are almost no guards in public, but secretly... Lan Qian only paid a quick attention and felt that there were countless people hiding in the dark.

After walking through a garden, she finally saw a person who looked like the housekeeper here.

"This girl, who are you?"

The butler had just arrived and didn't know Lan Qian's existence. He thought she was here to see the prince. But looking at Lan Qian's dress and temperament, he knew that she was not ordinary.

"The prince has gone out and hasn't returned yet. If you are here to see him, why don't you go to the side hall and rest for a while?"

In his opinion, the Prince of Chen's palace was heavily guarded, and since the guards at the gate of the palace had let the girl in, they must have gotten the prince's permission. Since she was the prince's guest, she should be treated well.

"Your Majesty?"

Lan Qian frowned slightly.

"What's the name of the prince you mentioned?"

Hearing this, the housekeeper was startled and said quickly: "Young lady, you are joking. How dare this old servant..."

"Qianqian."

A voice suddenly came from behind.

The butler hadn't finished speaking when he saw the visitor. He immediately stepped forward and said respectfully, "Your Highness, this girl..."

"You go down first."

There was no expression on Mo Chen's face.

"Yes."

The butler withdrew.

Lan Qian knew that he had returned, but she did not move. She stood quietly with her back to him. She heard the man's footsteps, slowly approaching her step by step. Then, a tall figure approached from behind, and a pair of warm big hands slowly touched her waist.

"Qianqian, why did you come out?"

His hands moved around her waist, little by little wrapping their arms around her tightly, and his deep voice seemed a little gentler than before.

"Is it too stuffy in there?"

"Qianqian, if you want to come out, you can tell me and I will accompany you. Why do you want to come out alone?"

He did not ask how she had gotten rid of the chains.

I didn't ask her what she said to the housekeeper.

He just used his pair of slender arms to hold her gently but firmly, as if not giving her any chance to escape.

Lan Qian lowered her eyes slightly and looked at his arms around her.

Slowly speaking:

"You are the King of Chen."

Not a rhetorical question, not a doubt, but a calm statement of established fact, something she already knew.

Mo Chen tightened his hold around her.

Those dark eyes seemed to be churning with something, flickering.

Suddenly, his hand touched her lightly.

Lan Qian was suddenly unable to move.

"Qianqian, your body cannot be stimulated."

Mo Chen slowly moved closer to her ear, as if afraid to scare her, his voice was very soft, and he placed one hand gently on her heart, feeling her heartbeat which was slightly faster than usual. Fortunately, it was not beating very fast.

He picked her up by the waist.

"Let's go back first."
