Chapter 261: Princess vs. Oiran 25
Quan Jiuxi returned to the East Palace quietly without anyone noticing.
She lay on the couch and said, "Xiaoyi, try to make Hua Shi pregnant."
[Okay, sir. 】
After being confined indoors for three days, Quan Jiuxi slept soundly for three whole days.
The third emperor's daughter suddenly fell ill with a strange disease, and the empress summoned famous doctors from all over the world. This was the biggest event in Chang'an City at the time.
That night,
The monthly performance of Hua Shi at Zuiyue Tower arrived, and before it was completely dark, the building was already full of guests.
Hua Shi has always had many fans, and the song he performed this time was the melodious and graceful "Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix".
He was dressed in a moon-white robe, looking like an immortal.
Her fingers lightly stroked the strings, and her slender jade-like fingers danced on the strings like nimble butterflies.
The beautiful melody pours out like the gurgling water, lingering in everyone's ears, making people intoxicated and intoxicated.
However, Hua Shi was obviously a little absent-minded today, and his originally nimble fingers occasionally hesitated on the strings.
He frowned slightly, and there was a hint of sadness in his ink-black eyes. His gaze seemed to pass through the crowd and drift into the unknown distance.
On her delicate face, her thin lips were slightly pursed, as if she had a thousand words to say but could not.
"Alas, Hua Shi is no longer a virgin. What a pity."
"What are you talking about?"
"What's wrong with that? Didn't Hua Shi's virginity be bought by Her Highness the Princess?"
"You don't know this, do you? Her Highness is here to investigate the imperial examination. Please don't slander the two of them."
"That's right, Her Highness the Princess paid for it with her own money just to stay in the brothel. Even though Hua Shi was stunningly beautiful, she didn't have any evil thoughts in her mind."
"It turns out that Her Highness is so kind..."
Before he finished speaking, a clear female voice called out, "Her Royal Highness has arrived."
Hua Shi, who had just finished playing, was slightly stunned, and looked at the person who came with star-like eyes eagerly.
Quan Jiuxi was seen wearing an extremely gorgeous princess's dress. The golden phoenix embroidered on the sleeves looked lifelike, as if it would flap its wings and soar into the sky at any time.
She wore a dazzling pearl crown, the gems on the crown sparkled brightly, and her hairpins swayed gently with her steps, making crisp and pleasant sounds.
Quan Jiuxi held his head high and chest out, and his noble and majestic aura was overwhelming. His endless noble air made people dare not look directly at him.
"Greetings to Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess." Everyone present shouted in unison and knelt down in fear and trepidation.
Quan Jiuxi sat lazily in the sedan chair, his eyes slightly raised, looking at everyone with disdain.
But he never even glanced at Hua Shi from beginning to end.
Hua Shi knelt on the ground with everyone else, slowly lowered his eyes, and felt a dull pain in his heart like a hammer.
Her eyes looked so strange, as if they had never met before.
Quan Jiuxi gently raised her jade hand, waved it nonchalantly, and said indifferently:
"Come here, give the flowers to His Highness and take them back to the East Palace."
Everyone was shocked, and Hua Shi looked up in a daze, his eyes full of astonishment and confusion.
"Your Highness, I don't know how Hua Shi offended you, you..." The madam raised her head hurriedly, her face full of flattering smile, but it couldn't hide the deep fear.
"Does your Highness need to ask me when I'm doing something?"
The smile on Quan Jiuxi's lips remained unchanged, but his eyes were as cold as ice.
“I dare not, I dare not, it’s just…” Sweat rolled down the madam’s forehead, and her hands were clenched into fists tightly.
"Your Highness, although Hua Shi was born in a brothel, he is also a good citizen. I wonder why?"
A female official present bowed and asked loudly, winking at Quan Jiuxi as she spoke.
Quan Jiuxi looked away without changing his expression. His hands rested leisurely on the back of the chair, his posture naturally revealing calmness, as if everything was under his control.
"Your Highness did not get the flower that day, and I regretted it deeply after returning..."
"Your Highness, are you trying to abduct a man in broad daylight?"
The female official immediately questioned.
Her brows were furrowed, her expression was serious, and her eyes were full of anger and questioning.
For a moment, everyone was filled with indignation.
"Your Highness, aren't you chilling the hearts of the people by acting this way?"
Quan Jiuxi chuckled, his laughter was crisp but with a hint of coldness.
Her sharp eyes swept around like a sword, her red lips parted slightly, and every word was like a nail.
"Today, whoever dares to stop me will be killed, no matter who it is."
"Yes!" The guards behind him shouted in unison, their voices were deafening and echoed throughout the Zuiyue Tower.
Everyone was frightened and silent, filled with fear.
Every face was either pale and bloodless or filled with panic.
"Take him away." Quan Jiuxi said, his voice cold and firm.
The two female guards hurried forward, but did not dare to touch Hua Shi rashly, and just stood behind Hua Shi.
Hua Shi looked at Quan Jiuxi, biting his lower lip with his pearly teeth. He understood Quan Jiuxi's thoughts almost instantly.
She created a victim identity for him. The people would only think that Quan Jiuxi was incompetent, oppressed the people, and was lustful and absurd.
But Hua Shi was just a person who was unable to resist, which undoubtedly had a huge impact on her prestige.
But what virtue does he have...
Hua Shi slowly walked towards Quan Jiuxi. Even though it was just a few steps, it felt like he had crossed thousands of mountains and rivers, which was extremely long.
Hua Shi, you are so beautiful.
Hua Shi, I will protect you.
Hua Shi, as long as I am here, I will definitely protect you.
The woman's smiling eyes and brows appeared in his mind until they overlapped with the person in front of him.
He didn't know when Quan Jiuxi's feelings for him began, and why she treated him so specially when they first met.
But he had a hunch that she was his destiny.
Hua Shi felt his eyes getting a little hot and he hurriedly controlled his emotions. If he cried, the situation would become even more difficult to control.
He gave Bai Yi a reassuring look. Although Bai Yi didn't understand why, he still nodded in response.
Quan Jiuxi and his group strode away, and then everyone stood up, with noisy sounds rising one after another.
"What a sin! Where will our Feng Nation go? Are we just going to allow Her Highness the Crown Princess to do such a wicked thing?"
An old man said this with great sorrow, pointing with trembling hands in the direction where the princess left, his face full of grief and anger.
"Old lady Leng, you said this a few days ago." A young man next to her reminded in a low voice.
"I think there's something fishy about this."
"I've also noticed that although Hua Shi was taken away, the people around him are very respectful. Could it be that Her Highness is secretly investigating the case again?"
"Who would believe this! Look at the way Her Royal Highness just now! She was so arrogant and domineering, not even a bit like a princess! Feng Nation..."
"Just shut up now, your tigress husband is waiting for you at the door."
