Chapter 732: Chapter 731: This King, Just Wants to Take a Look

Chu Qianli was left in the study.

That Prince Yexuan, who may or may not have been angry, had said before leaving that if she hadn’t finished dealing with matters by the time he returned, he would deal with her.

What "dealing with her" meant, there was no need to guess.

Chu Qianli felt somewhat helpless.

Having one’s fate in someone else’s hands was truly an awful feeling.

But now, she could neither fight nor flee.

Moreover, if the relationship between the two of them was real, she did owe him quite a bit.

Disappearing was not her style.

"Miss, I’ve stewed some pear soup for you. Take a sip to cool down,"

Dongqing carried in the pear soup, cautiously placing it on one side.

"Miss, you’ve seemed a bit off these past couple of days. Please, have some first."

Chu Qianli pondered for a moment before putting down her pen and looking at her, "Dongqing, do you know who I am?"

Dongqing was startled by her serious expression, hesitated to shake her head, but ended up nodding.

"You are Lady Xiaoyao, that... that in the prison cell, your family members are there, and the Prince... won’t allow you to leave."

The entire Prince Residence knew about this; to keep Lady Xiaoyao here, the Prince had imprisoned her relatives.

There were also rumors claiming that the prisoner was not Lady Xiaoyao’s relative but rather her husband.

It was uncertain which rumor was true.

These were words that should not have been spoken, but since Lady Xiaoyao asked, Dongqing did not dare to conceal them.

Chu Qianli fixed her gaze on her, "Who did you hear this from?"

Dongqing didn’t know if she was angry or not, and with trepidation, she could only whisper, "Everyone... everyone is talking about it..."

"So, in fact, no one really knows who I am?"

Dongqing looked confused, "Miss, you... you are Lady Xiaoyao."

Could it be that she had another identity?

Chu Qianli only offered a faint smile and took the pear soup from her hands.

"Just teasing you, look how nervous you got."

It seemed that Yexuan had not disclosed her identity, and currently, only a few people knew she was Chu Qianli.

Indeed, on Prince Qihe’s side, there was already a "Chu Qianli."

That Chu Qianli, who knew everything and understood how to manage interpersonal relationships exceedingly well, except for Prince Yexuan’s side.

Whereas she, the real person, had forgotten everything.

Now, if she were to go out claiming to be Chu Qianli, the people outside would definitely not believe her.

Only, she wondered, how long did Yexuan actually intend to keep her confined here?

After finishing the pear soup and sending Dongqing away, Chu Qianli was planning to continue working on official documents.

Yet unexpectedly, at this moment, there was some disturbance in the courtyard.

"Prince, weren’t you... supposed to host a banquet?" Leng Ji had followed Yexuan to Prince Qihe’s residence, and tonight, those who stayed behind were Jingri and Wangyue.

Now, Jingri was trying to stop Prince Qihe, who wished to enter.

But Prince Qihe was not willing to be stopped, striding quickly into the courtyard.

With such an attitude, Jingri could not possibly stop him, and it wasn’t like he could actually start a fight.

Wangyue hurriedly went to notify Feng Jinrui that Prince Qihe had arrived.

No one knew what act Prince Qihe was playing, why he would host a banquet at home, invite Prince Yexuan over, and then himself run off to Prince Yexuan’s residence.

"I heard that a Lady Xiaoyao arrived at your residence, a woman of astonishing intelligence. I would like to see her for myself,"

Prince Qihe walked inside, clearly not capable of being stopped by Jingri.

This was Wuzhou Garden. The bedrooms were dark, clearly unoccupied.

But the study, there was light.

Prince Yexuan’s study... With Yexuan gone, who would dare to enter?

Could it be that Lady Xiaoyao?

Prince Qihe took steps toward the study.

This woman, her name was known, but not her person.

Ultimately, who was this paragon of virtue?
