Chapter 738: Chapter 737: Under the Night, That Familiar Flute Sound

No one knew what Feng Yexuan and Feng Qihe had talked about.

However, that night, after parting with Feng Qihe, Feng Yexuan did not return to the Prince Residence.

"Ding Chen seemed to have seen the Prince headed to the back mountain,"

when Dongqing delivered ginseng tea to Chu Qianli, she mentioned offhandedly, "It seems he went to the Purple Orchid Garden."

No one knew what the Purple Orchid Sea meant to the Prince, but it seemed he had taken both the former Princess there, as well as the current Xiaoyao.

In fact, Dongqing vaguely felt something, everyone’s attitude towards Xiaoyao was unmistakable, anyone with sense could tell there was great respect.

Yet, no one spoke openly about it, so Dongqing didn’t ask.

She was just a maid serving Lady Xiaoyao.

Chu Qianli picked up the cup and took a sip.

Dongqing’s skill was still quite good; she had personally simmered the ginseng tea.

This girl had nearly been beaten to death that day while serving the fake Chu Qianli, it was Fu Ning who brought her over for treatment.

Now, staying by her side, was that not a kind of fate?

Chu Qianli looked at her, yet suddenly frowned.

Deep in her memory, it seemed that by her side, she once had a compliant and well-behaved little girl.

Following her around all day long, addressing her as Princess...

"Miss, is the ginseng tea not to your liking?" Seeing her furrowed brow, Dongqing immediately grew anxious, "Shall I go make another batch..."

"My maid in the past... did not call herself a ’maid’."

Chu Qianli’s brow furrowed even tighter.

Some memories, bit by bit, surfaced, but they were still not clear enough.

Dongqing tilted her head looking at her, puzzled.

Not calling oneself ’maid,’ wasn’t that a huge disrespect?

In the end, Chu Qianli collected her thoughts and finished the ginseng tea, handing the cup back to her.

"You don’t have to be so formal in the future. Be more relaxed around me."

"Your servant..."

"Mm?" Chu Qianli raised an eyebrow.

Dongqing hesitated, then nodded, "I understand."

"The Prince went to the Purple Orchid Sea at the back mountain?" She couldn’t help but feel the urge to laugh.

Now, her mood was not so irritable.

Staying in this place, it seemed, was not so bad after all.

"Did Leng Ji intentionally tell you?"

Dongqing nodded, "It seems like it... he did it on purpose, so I guess... he wanted me to relay the message to you."

It was just like informing the mistress about the master’s whereabouts.

As subordinates, they were all mindful.

"Understood," Chu Qianli nodded, her gaze lowered, still looking at the few remaining documents.

"I’ll deal with some matters; you should go rest earlier."

"Miss, it’s getting late."

"Your Prince said that if I don’t finish up, he will deal with me when he comes back."

Hearing this, Dongqing, not knowing what to make of it, blushed instantly, "Then I will take my leave first."

And with that, she hurried off.

Chu Qianli was somewhat helpless.

After finishing the last two letters, she took notes in the memorandum book about things to be mindful of, replying directly to one of them and stepping out to hand it to Leng Ji.

Then she returned to her own bedroom, bathed and changed, and was about to retire for the night.

Suddenly, she faintly heard the sound of a musical instrument.

A familiar flute sound, where had she heard it before?

A wave of unrest inexplicably rose in Chu Qianli’s heart. She threw on an outer garment, walked to the window, and opened it.

The flute sound became even clearer.

Where exactly had she heard that before?

Suddenly, her expression changed drastically, and she rushed out of the room in a hurry.

"Lady Xiaoyao..." No one knew what she was about to do.

As soon as Chu Qianli ran out, she immediately headed for Feng Yexuan’s bedroom.

The Prince still hadn’t returned, only Leng Ji, alerted by the noise, hurried out, "Miss, what’s the matter...?"

"Where is my master being held?"

Chu Qianli grabbed the corner of his clothes, urgently saying, "Quick! Take me to see Ye Qingying, it will be too late if we delay!"
