Rebirth: The paranoid war king was controlled by the crazy female protagonist

I don’t know how long it had been, but I could vaguely feel the sunlight shining in from the window, and a warm feeling spread throughout the air.

She turned over habitually and covered her eyes that were stung by the sunlight with the quilt.

She wanted to continue sleeping, but suddenly, her nerves tensed up, she opened her eyes wide under the quilt, and realized that there was another figure in the room.

This familiar feeling, she slowly lifted the quilt and looked at the man's focused profile. He was reading the book in his hand.

"Awake?" Xiao Yanqing asked in a cold voice without looking at her.

She came to her senses and quickly sat up, "Your Highness..."

She wondered, why was Xiao Yanqing here? !

She held her forehead and tried to recall. She vaguely remembered that she seemed to have run into him when she came back last night. It seemed that he hugged her back. As for what happened afterwards, what he said...

"It seems you don't remember." He saw through her thoughts.

He closed the book in his hand and looked into her surprised eyes.

"It seems... yes." I can only hope that I didn't say the wrong thing.

He deliberately stretched out his hand to her until it touched her cheek. Although a hint of surprise flashed across her pupils, she did not dodge.

There was no tenderness in his eyes, just tentative suspicion, but she herself didn't mind.

Seeing that she was as well-behaved as she was last night and didn't see what he suspected, he withdrew his hand.

"Does your head still hurt?" She murmured about her headache while sleeping soundly last night.

"Kind of."

"Still drinking?"

She was startled. Was he testing her?

"If necessary..."

"Jiang Qingyu!" he suddenly raised his voice.

She was startled.

"I won't let you drink so much again!"

"Why?" Is he worried about her? Or did she do something wrong?

Since he is here, it means he was listening last night.

"No reason." He didn't want to explain.

She blinked, lowered her head and thought hard. Did she and Xiao Yanqing say something yesterday? And he sat here all night without rest?

She was about to ask when he stood up and said, "Pack your things and go back with me."

She hesitated and then responded, "Okay."

After saying this, he walked away.

She raised her eyes and watched him go out. The feelings of last night seemed to linger in her heart, and the smile on the corners of her lips gradually deepened, as if confirming a certain emotion.

Just as she finished packing her things, she ran into Hua Niang who came to greet her.

"Miss Qingyu."

Qing Yu suddenly thought that Hua Niang must know what happened yesterday.

"Hua Niang, did anything happen yesterday?"

"Yesterday..." Hua Niang also recalled in confusion.

"You drank too much. His Highness asked the maid to help you wash and change your clothes. After that, I don't know what happened." However, Hua Niang discovered that His Highness should have been here last night, and had been coming to Huanxiang Pavilion from time to time recently.

Could it be that His Highness is interested in Qing Yu...

"Really?" It seemed that only Xiao Yanqing knew.

"I must be overthinking it." Qing Yu muttered.

She was about to turn around and leave when Hua Niang called her.

"Wait a minute, Miss Qingyu."

"Ok?"

Hua Niang smiled and handed her the book.

Puzzled, she took it and asked, "What is this?"

She flipped through the book casually, her pupils dilated as she stared at the pictures and words in amazement.

Hua Niang then explained, "Take it back and read it. I will teach you after you finish reading it."

"Why is Hua Niang teaching me this?"

"Since you are the most beautiful courtesan in the brothel, you must understand and master it. It will be useful sooner or later."

Logically speaking, this is something that one should learn after being elected as the oiran, but it is only limited by time.

Moreover, the relationship between His Highness and Miss Qingyu will sooner or later... If we don't understand anything by then, wouldn't it be a disappointment to His Highness?

She closed the book and nodded woodenly, perhaps she had not yet recovered from the explicit text in the book.

When she quietly stepped into the carriage, she found that he had been waiting for her.

"Your Highness."

He remained silent, and she could not sense his emotions either, only the sound of his steady breathing.

After a moment, she asked softly, "Your Highness, have you been here all night?"

"Hmm." He hummed.

"why?"

“I don’t need a reason to do anything.”

She blinked, obviously not wanting to tell her,

She simply stopped asking. Perhaps she knew the answer. Was he staying there to accompany her?

After returning to the palace, Xiao Yanqing went straight to find a doctor for her, presumably to ease her pain from the hangover. He then instructed the kitchen to bring breakfast to her in her room, and then disappeared. Presumably he was either resting or busy.

……

At this time, Kuiyue had already smashed the teapot on the small table, and there was a crackling sound in the room. Her clenched fists were shaking with anger, her brows were furrowed, and her face was distorted. It was unclear whether it was anger or grief, and tears kept pouring out of her eyes.

"Why…"

"Why did she get all this so easily...why..."

She saw with her own eyes last night that His Highness carried her back and even stayed with her the entire night.

Why, she has been here for so long, and seeing His Highness once is a luxury, but that woman can actually return to His Highness's palace.

"Why!"

She was unwilling to accept this. She had done so much for His Highness. What was so good about that woman? Why did so many people want to hold on to her?

This woman must have a secret.

"Miss Kuiyue, there is a guest looking for you." The maid outside suddenly called her name.

"Okay." Kuiyue quickly wiped the tears from her cheeks, packed up and walked out of the room.

She won't give up! She will never give up easily! His Highness is hers no matter what!

As Kuiyue walked down, she heard a shrill name "Qingwu" coming from a house.

"Mr. Jiang, do you want to see Miss Qingwu?" the girl in the room asked Jiang Mo.

"Yeah, it's a pity that it's so difficult to meet Miss Qingwu. I have to spend tens of thousands of taels and wait until next month." Jiang Mo couldn't help but feel regretful.

"But Miss Qingwu is a popular person, and it was Hua Niang who arranged it herself. However, it's really a pity that Mr. Jiang had to wait so long..." The girl spoke in a way that seemed to be speaking up for him.

Kuiyue listened to the words coming from inside. This Jiang Mo was the prince's enemy. He actually wanted to see Qingyu as well. If she guided Qingyu over, wouldn't that be exactly what the prince wanted?

However, from what Jiang Mo said just now, Hua Niang actually arranged it for him next month. Why?

Doesn’t Your Highness want Qing Yu to get in touch with Jiang Mo?

"Miss Kuiyue, Hua Niang is waiting for you." The maid came to look for Kuiyue and saw her here.

"Go tell Hua Niang that I'm not feeling well."

"But..." The maid hesitated.

"Go ahead." Kuiyue urged.

"It's Miss Kuiyue."

She must know what they want to do. It must not be a simple matter for them to find Qing Yu.
