Help! The innocent prince always tries to seduce me clumsily

Chapter 196: Soft Chapter: The Pearl Clam

At sunset.

Si Jingli arrived as promised, his tall figure outlined in a black suit, his black hair and black ribbon fluttering in the wind, giving him a sense of efficiency and neatness.

Chu Shitong had been waiting for a long time. She decided to take the initiative to break the ice today and find a way to ease the relationship with Si Jingli within these three days. As long as the relationship can be eased, she can find a way to delay the progress.

Also strange.

If she really considered her feelings, she would never bow to Si Jingli.

But once her purpose changed, she could easily swallow her pride and be as attentive as she was in her previous life in order to win the throne.

Si Jingli sat opposite her as usual, picked up his chopsticks and started eating without saying a word, his eyes always on the food, as if he was unwilling to look up at her.

Chu Shitong also noticed that she was thinking of saying something to break the ice. If she suddenly softened her tone, Si Jingli would definitely guess her purpose.

After thinking it over, she felt that no matter what she said, it would be bad. It was already this point in time, and whatever she said would easily be suspected by Si Jingli, even though he didn't know that she had heard the information from Rushuang.

Chu Shitong held the rice bowl in his hand but never put down his chopsticks.

There were so many thoughts in my mind, and we looked at each other in silence. I really couldn't think of any appropriate words.

Looking at Si Jingli like this, the dull atmosphere at the dinner table was just like their dead relationship. She found it ridiculous that they were still picking it up just to fight for the throne.

Is it going to be like this for the rest of her life for her and Si Jingli?

Seeing that she had not picked up her chopsticks for a long time, Si Jingli looked up at her curiously. Their eyes met, and Si Jingli subconsciously opened his mouth to speak. Chu Shitong's heart skipped a beat and he was ready to answer, but he opened and closed his mouth without saying a word. He glanced at her and continued to eat with his head down.

It seems that Si Jingli has no intention of giving in to this weakness.

Chu Shitong was anxious, she was really anxious.

If she didn't stop the abdication in three days and let Si Jingli become the emperor, she felt that she would be so angry that she would die.

"Your Highness, do you intend to remain silent like this forever?"

She finally couldn't help it.

Si Jingli paused for a moment, then continued eating as if he hadn't heard anything.

Chu Shitong was furious, but he had to suppress it and said patiently, "Or is it that His Royal Highness is no longer prepared to talk to me?"

Si Jingli paused again, but still didn't speak.

Chu Shitong took a deep breath, wondering whether he should say something soft to ease the relationship.

The servant hurried into the room and leaned over to whisper something in Si Jingli's ear. Chu Shitong only vaguely heard "coming, what pavilion, waiting". Maybe no one had spoken to her in the past two days, and her ears were too quiet so her hearing had improved a lot.

There was only one pavilion in her house for watching the moon and drinking wine, and it was in the next yard, across the corridor. It seemed that someone came to look for Si Jingli.

When Si Jingli heard this, a hint of joy appeared on his originally expressionless face. He put down his chopsticks, looked at her, and left.

Chu Shitong subconsciously felt that nothing good was going to happen.

Who could make Si Jingli so happy?

Why did the two of them still meet at her house?

Something is wrong, so wrong.

In the past, when Si Jingli came, he would not allow servants to come in to inform him, as if he did not want to be disturbed by other things during the short time of eating. However, the joy in his eyes that subconsciously relaxed just now was not fake. The person who came must be someone who could make him very happy.

who is it?

Chu Shitong saw that he really did not go towards the direction of the mansion gate, but went to the archway of the corridor on the side of the pavilion, and immediately had some guesses in his mind.

After sitting for a while, she couldn't eat the meal anymore.

She quietly arrived at the archway and was immediately stopped by two guards.

"Your Highness Prince Qi, His Highness the Crown Prince has ordered that you are not allowed to leave this courtyard."

Chu Shitong asked, "Who did the prince go to see?"

The two guards looked at each other, with a hint of embarrassment on their faces.

The guard said: "We don't know either. Please go back first."

Chu Shitong's pair of light-colored eyes were icy cold, and his sharp gaze seemed to be able to see through the two of them. He asked, "Do you really not know or are you deliberately hiding it from me?"

The guard became more and more guilty and said, "His Royal Highness has ordered that we cannot tell you anything. Please go back."

Chu Shitong had no intention of taking any forceful action. After all, she had been locked up for so long that she knew exactly what Si Jingli had instructed her to do.

As I turned around to go back to the courtyard, I suddenly heard a very soft woman's laughter.

Chu Shitong paused.

The sound seemed to be brought by the wind, seeming to be there and not there, as if it was imagined, appearing lightly and disappearing lightly.

She turned around abruptly and stared at the two guards. If the chuckle was her imagination, the two men probably didn't hear it. But their suddenly ugly expressions proved that the sound was real and they must have heard it.

Chu Shitong's face suddenly changed, and a bad premonition suddenly exploded in his heart.

She stepped forward quickly, and the two guards immediately drew their swords and crossed them to block her.

"Your Highness Prince Qi, please go back."

"Who is in that courtyard? Who did the prince meet?"

There is no answer.

The anger in Chu Shitong's heart gradually became violent in the silent suppression. When she thought of the joy that Si Jingli had just revealed, she felt an indescribable nameless fire in her heart that wanted to burst out.

Taking another step forward, the two men put their knives directly on her neck.

The guard advised: "Your Highness Prince Qi, please don't embarrass us. We are just following orders. Please go back."

Chu Shitong was so irritable that he would never listen to such words.

This is really outrageous, like seeing a ghost, or something is wrong? Put a knife on her neck in her home and not let her, the owner, walk around? Is there any law? !

She was already angry that Si Jingli did not accept her kindness, and now the attitude of the two guards made her even angrier.

She can't accept being backstabbed the most, because although her trust is fragile, it is also extremely difficult to give.

Not only did Si Jingli leave her alone, he also wanted to seize the throne all of a sudden, and now he was hanging out with other women, even in her house! !

Chu Shitong looked at the two of them coldly, the murderous intent and anger in his eyes almost turned into a knife blade stabbing out, and all the frustration that he had been holding in his heart for the past few days burst out at this moment.

"I am determined to go! Who do you think you are to stop me?! If you have the guts, chop off my head!!!"

She rushed towards the two cold knives that were blocking her, and the two guards were so scared that they immediately retracted their knives.

Letting Chu Shitong go might result in punishment.

But if Chu Shitong is hurt, he will definitely die.

Chu Shitong was not angry because the two men stopped her. In the final analysis, she was angry with herself, and she couldn't even control her anger towards Qin Wei.

If Qin Wei were here, these two guards would have their necks broken in the next second if they dared to draw their swords!

Chu Shitong walked quickly along the short corridor, the anger in his heart burning through the sky as his pace quickened.

Damn Qin Wei! Did he die outside? How many days have passed and he still hasn't come to find her! How dare he let her suffer so much injustice and humiliation!

She herself didn't realize how much she relied on Qin Wei since he appeared.

In such a predicament, the first person she blamed was not the person who made things difficult for her, but Qin Wei who did not stay by her side to protect her.
