In recent days, Qing Yu has been in the palace. Fang Ruo comes to play with her from time to time. In the evening, with Xiao Yanzhou's permission, she will go to the dungeon to "visit" Jiang Mo. However, she spends most of her time with him.

With her around, the bedroom is always filled with unique laughter and joy. Unlike this beautiful "cage", it is more like a bird that stays here and plays freely.

In the light and shadow cast by the sun, she held her hand and danced intertwinedly, her skirt swaying with the light steps of the two, one step after another.

She stood behind Fang Ruo, overlapped Fang Ruo's hand holding the round fan, and led her to dance with the fan in her hand.

For the first time, Fang Ruo felt herself so lively, and felt the charm transmitted to her from her. Even though there was no music, she could hum the melody in her heart.

After enjoying the pleasure, Fang Ruo clapped her hands in excitement, "Haha, I have always envied the dancers' freedom in their dancing. Thank you, Princess, for fulfilling my wish today."

Qing Yu curled the corners of his lips and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Instead of worrying about the predicament, it is better to enjoy life while you can."

"Haha, the princess is right." Fang Ruo turned the fan in her hand. In the past, she only cared about the sorrows in life, forgetting that she had choices and that she also had the right to be happy.

She turned to Fang Ruo, her eyes lingering on her cheek, "Miss Fang Ruo has a beautiful smile."

The straightforward praise touched Fang Ruo's heart. Beautiful? Was he describing her?

Fang Ruo lowered her head somewhat embarrassedly, "Thank you, Princess."

I have been very happy with the princess these days. It is the happiness she has never experienced since she entered the palace.

She even looked forward to the princess coming here more often, but she didn't want her to be trapped here.

She heard about what happened in the princess's family and was thinking about how she could comfort the princess during this meeting.

Unexpectedly, the princess was the same as usual, without any abnormality. Perhaps the princess's understanding of life had already surpassed his own.

"Miss Fang Ruo, I have a question I hope you can answer for me."

Fang Ruo looked at her in surprise, and saw that her smiling face was gradually covered with seriousness, and she nodded quickly.

However, can I help the princess solve her doubts?

The two sat down together and the maid poured them warm tea.

She took a sip and spoke slowly, "Empress Zheng specially invited me to her bedroom. I wonder..."

"Princess, don't go!" Before she could finish, Fang Ruo hurriedly stopped her.

Although she realized that it was too abrupt, Fang Ruo still wanted to express her thoughts, "I'm worried that Concubine Zheng will harm the princess."

She curved her eyebrows, "Miss Fang Ruo thinks she can hurt me?"

Fang Ruo shook her head, keeping an eye on the situation outside, and whispered, "Noble Concubine Zheng is not as friendly as she looks. She is good at hiding people's true feelings and sowing discord. She only uses some despicable means."

"I'm afraid the princess will fall into her trap, afraid that the princess..."

She knew that the princess was not an ordinary woman, and Concubine Zheng might not be her opponent. She was afraid that even if she won, she would not get any benefits.

She paused, then looked up at Fang Ruo, "Has she ever bullied you like this?"

Fang Ruo's heart sank and he lowered his eyes. "I'm lucky. It's just a minor punishment. It's nothing more than mental torture."

At this moment, she saw helplessness and pain in Fang Ruo's eyes. There were no tears in those dim eyes, as if they had dried up long ago.

Instantly, she placed her left hand on the table, leaned towards Fang Ruo, and stroked her cheek with her right hand, "Don't be afraid, it won't be long, it will all be over."

Faced with her sudden proximity and gentle touch of her fingers, Fang Ruo stood there in a daze, his heart pounding.

She met her eyes. They were the most beautiful eyes she had ever seen. There was no need to disguise her timidity. Both desire and ambition were evident in her eyes.

But why are these eyes so clear and lovable, even though I am the one being protected.

"Princess...Princess." Fang Ruo spoke nervously, but he also heard what she said clearly.

End? Does it mean that the princess will deal with Concubine Zheng?

By the time Fang Ruo came to her senses, she had already let go of her hand and sat back in her seat, thinking about what to do next.

"It seems I have to be prepared." There was a meaningful smile in her eyes, without any fear.

Hearing this, Fang Ruo was stunned and opened his eyes wide, "The princess wants to go?!"

"Yes, it's such a warm invitation, how can I not go."

"But...what if it's a trap?" Fang Ruo could hardly hide the worry and uneasiness between his brows.

"With them here, nothing will happen." She gestured to the guards who were guarding her outside the palace.

Ever since that incident, Brother Zhou has been more concerned about her safety and has tried to prevent her from running around. There are always seven or eight guards following her.

"Even if something happens, they will go back and tell Brother Zhou."

She was not worried at all. If she didn't give Zheng Linhan an opportunity, how could she take action? If she didn't take action, how could she catch her handle?

Fang Ruo suddenly realized something, "Your Majesty doesn't know about this?"

"Yes, if I tell Brother Zhou, he won't let me go."

"Then, Princess, do you need my help? Fang Ruo will definitely do his best."

"Miss Fang Ruo, just protect yourself to avoid getting hurt." She smiled and reminded.

Fang Ruo wanted to say something, but swallowed the words back. She wanted to help, but was afraid of getting the princess into trouble.

Qing Yu lowered her eyes and thought, turning the teacup in her hand. It was time to meet Zheng Linhan, which was also one of the purposes of her going to the palace.

She suddenly remembered that she seemed not to have discussed this matter with Yan Qing.

Well...will Yan Qing be angry?

……

The next day, Qing Yu prepared gifts and went to the harem. The leading guard noticed her intention and immediately stepped forward to ask.

"Little Princess, you want to..."

"The Imperial Concubine invited me to afternoon tea." She explained her purpose as if nothing had happened.

The guard immediately reached out to stop him after hearing the answer, "Little Princess, His Majesty said you can't go."

"why?"

The guard bowed his head and said, "I'm sorry, little princess. This is what His Majesty told me to do."

His Majesty had specifically instructed him not to let the little princess go to the harem, especially to see the imperial concubine.

"I'm just curious about what she wants to do with me. It'll be fine."

"My little princess, His Majesty has ordered me to always pay attention to your safety... Please don't embarrass me."

Her eyes fell directly on him, and the guard hesitated to look up, "What if I want to go?"

The guard was stunned, "Then I can only go and inform His Majesty."

"Okay." She responded readily. Before the guards could figure out her intention, she continued, "By the way, Brother Zhou is very busy today. It seems he is welcoming foreign envoys. If you go now, be careful to get scolded."

When she woke up today, she found out that it was no wonder that Zheng Linhan chose this day. If she said that today was not the Hongmen Banquet, she herself would not believe it.

After saying this, she continued to move forward. After she reacted, the guards quickly followed.

He walked up to her, leaned over and pleaded, "Little Princess, please go back."

She looked at the guard, hesitated, squatted down and whispered: "If you want nothing to happen, just listen to me. You watch from the side. If anything unexpected happens, you tell Brother Zhou. If there is any problem, I will take responsibility myself."

"But little princess, what if it's too late?"

"Haha, believe in your ability." She stood up, said no more, and skipped over.

The guard stood up and followed, but he had no choice but to stand aside and watch what would happen. The little princess was now deeply loved and no one dared to provoke her.
