Chapter 1141: Chapter 1140: From Now On, Stop Provoking Him

"It seems that the members of the Lan Family are indeed very formidable."

The Princess replied with a somewhat helpless smile, "Miss Chu, you can’t possibly think that I’m from the Lan Family, do you?"

Her thin lips curved up, and her smile deepened, "You flatter me, Miss, but unfortunately, I’m merely a girl from a common family. Moreover, I’ve been an orphan, not having a home to call my own until I met our Prince."

Chu Qianli replied with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, "But I’ve heard the Prince say that you used to follow him on military campaigns and are quite a master."

"A master?" The Princess laughed helplessly, "I am just someone who has always been self-reliant since childhood, stronger than the average girl, able to compete with grown men."

"As a young woman alongside the Prince, I was no less capable than his soldiers. That’s why the Prince finds me different from normal women and regards me with special favor, I suppose."

Speaking of her less than glamorous background, the Princess didn’t seem to care at all— in this regard, she shared the same values as Chu Lingyang.

She laughed and said, "If it weren’t for that, I might not have caught the eye of our Prince. He’s not like most men; he doesn’t particularly fancy coquettish girls."

"But the Imperial Family does like them. The emperor back in the day would probably not favor a girl of such plain origin."

"That’s true; the emperor wasn’t fond of me initially."

"I heard that it was the Princess who insisted on being granted an audience. I don’t know what was said afterward, but the emperor actually agreed."

Chu Qianli’s gaze still tightly fixed on the Princess.

The smile in her eyes was accompanied by a complex air, "Even the Prince doesn’t know what the Princess has said to the emperor, to make him, who was starkly opposed, suddenly change his mind and accept the Princess."

"One might think the Princess used the Soul Captivating Technique on the emperor."

"Miss Chu, you mustn’t speak irresponsibly or joke about such things."

The Princess’s face changed color, not out of guilt, but unrest.

"You’re young and might not understand that disaster comes from careless talk. At my age, you really can’t afford to speak recklessly."

She looked at Chu Qianli seriously, "Even though you are not from Nanming Country, this is still Nanming territory, so don’t speak of such things anymore."

Chu Qianli smiled, "I understand my mistake; the Princess is right to chide me."

The Princess didn’t blame her too much, after all, she was a guest.

After making a few polite remarks, she left.

Chu Qianli watched her retreating back.

Fu Ning approached her and whispered, "Miss, why do you always suspect the Princess?"

"I saw her last night in Lingjiu Hall."

"What?" Fu Ning bit her lip and quickly suppressed her exclamation.

Chu Qianli looked at the now empty courtyard door, her lips pressed lightly together.

"That State Preceptor is too powerful; he can take control of my mind at any time, and I wouldn’t even know when he made his move. I almost committed suicide on the spot due to his Soul Captivating Technique."

"Miss, please don’t provoke that State Preceptor again," Fu Ning was genuinely worried.

But Chu Qianli remained silent.

Fu Ning knew that she couldn’t change her mind once she made a decision.

She could only say sullenly, "At least, you must take good care of yourself."

Suddenly remembering something, she hurriedly said, "That Qingcheng... he’s been refusing to eat or drink, I’m worried he won’t be able to hold on. Miss, please go and check on him!"

Chu Qianli shifted her gaze and went to the backyard with Fu Ning.

As they just stepped into the backyard, both were dumbstruck.

What on earth is going on here?
