Chapter 11: The Third Prince's Gift

  "Princess! Princess!" A clear and urgent voice came from the other side of the lotus pond, interrupting Qin Luoyi's contemplation.

  Qin Luo Yi raised an eyebrow and looked up following the sound.

  Standing on the opposite side of the lake was her maid, Xing Er. Xing Er wore a light red dress and had an excited look on her face as she called out to the princess while running towards her.

  "Hehe, County Master, I didn't expect you to be here, it's been a while...". With a flicker of her eyes, Xing'er ran in front of her and smiled mischievously at her.

  "What's wrong...... looking for me with something?" Qin Luo Yi looked at her, a hint of brightness flashed in his phoenix eyes, and he smiled slightly.

  Apricot was born to be beautiful, a pair of apricot eyes with water light, at this time because of the excitement of running and flushed with delicate red glow, plus slender shoulders and waist, looks more charming.

  Xing Er and Liu Er were both senior maids in her house, carefully selected and arranged by Xie Ruoyan six years ago. They were meticulous in their work and even more so in their interactions with people and objects.

  "Princess, the queen is coming. Please go back to your room for a while!" Xing'er said with a mysterious tone, her eyes twinkling, and a barely concealed excited smile spreading across her face.

  Qin Luo Yi glanced at her and smiled, turning around casually, saying: "The princess has arrived... Xing Er, seeing you so excited, is it that my mother has found a suitable husband for you and wants to let you out?"

  "County master..." Xing'er was teased by her, and her pretty face immediately fell. She stomped her foot and said, "Xing'er won't get married, Xing'er will always serve the county master. The princess came because of the third prince..."

  "Third Prince......" Qin Luo Yi hooked up the corner of her lips, and there was a glimmer of glass-like light flickering in her phoenix eyes: "What's wrong with the Third Prince?"

  She had no impression of the Third Prince Chuyi Xiu, but when she heard the name of the Third Prince, she couldn't help but think of the purple-clothed man who had detoxified her that day.

  That man in purple said she had a fiancé... Hehe, it's really interesting, she doesn't know that her fiancé is the Third Prince, he must have known, right!

  Unexpectedly, he ended up saving her from poisoning after all... For these past ten days, every time she thought about it, she felt very surprised!

  "The third prince left the capital a few days ago, so he didn't know about your injury... Today, as soon as he returned, he rushed to the Wang Fu and even brought high-quality purple jade ointment. That snow jade ointment is extremely good, after applying it, there won't be any scars or marks on the wound..." Xing Er explained. Looking at the princess's distracted expression, she felt a pang of sadness in her heart, not expecting that the princess had even forgotten about the third prince.

  The princess was injured before, but she loved the third prince deeply. The third prince not only had outstanding literary talent and was handsome and elegant, but also had a high innate talent for cultivation. At a young age, he had already cultivated to the level of a martial master!

  Of course, in the Chu State, not only the county lord's daughter, but all eligible girls yearn for the favor of the third prince. Being able to marry into the third prince's mansion is a delight, even if it means being a concubine or servant.

  This time the emperor not only conferred a title on General Wang, making him one of the most powerful men in the empire, but also unexpectedly bestowed upon him a noble marriage... The county mistress was overjoyed when she found out and didn't sleep for three whole days...

  At this thought, Xing Er's eyes became even more dim.

  Now, in the Wang Fu, it is quietly spreading that the county master fell into the water by accident and was seen by someone, especially the third prince saw her embarrassed side, feeling ashamed, so she thought of taking her own life...

  "The Third Prince specially sent someone to deliver goods to me?" Qin Luo's lips curled up with a hint of ridicule, and she gently stroked her face, which was covered with a veil but had small red rashes.

  She was really curious, this talented third prince came, bringing gifts, because he really cared about her as his fiancée, or for some other reason...

  "Yes..." Xing'er looked at her stroking her face and felt a sudden tightness in her chest, hastily nodding.

  Two people walked towards Yingxue Garden while chatting.

  "Third sister!"

  Not yet arrived at the garden of snow reflection, she bumped into Qin Luohan in white clothes fluttering, seeing them coming over, with a curved eye and a smile, greeting her warmly.

  Qin's eyes flashed with a cold light for an instant, and then quickly disappeared, replaced by a warm and intimate smile: "Second sister, where are you going?"

  "I was just going to Yinxue Garden to find you, didn't expect to run into you here!" As she approached, Qin Luohan warmly reached out to take her hand.

  Qin Luo Yi stepped aside without leaving any trace and continued walking towards Ying Xue Garden.

  Qin's smile on her cold face froze, and then she smiled again, following beside her: "For the past two days, I accidentally caught a cold, and my sister was injured, so I didn't come over...I'm better today, so I thought I'd come see my sister and chat with her...Is my sister much better?"

  Qin Luoyi glanced at her and smiled: "It's nothing, it's already much better, and it's not a serious injury."

  "Are you really feeling much better? If there's still anywhere that doesn't feel right, you must say..." Qin Luohan heard this and a smile bloomed on his face like a flower, but in his eyes a hint of coldness flashed by quickly, his gaze seeming to glance at her arm.

  That position is exactly where the women of Sheng Long Continent are, at the point of guarding the palace sand.

  Qin Luo's clothes were seen, and the smile at the corner of her lips was even more sarcastic, but it was covered by a white gauze, so Qin Luo Han didn't see it. Following her gaze, he looked at his arm for a moment, then looked at her with great suspicion: "I accidentally bumped my head, could there be any other place that's uncomfortable?"

  "Hehe, it's nothing, I'm just worried about Sanmei, that's all." Qin Luohan was chilled to the bone by her gaze and hastily smiled.

  The third prince brought not only the purple jade cream, but also a green crescent-shaped jade pendant. The workmanship of the pendant was exquisite, and the quality of the jade was perfect and flawless, it was obvious that it was no ordinary object.

  Qin Luo Han looked at him, secretly gritting his teeth, the jealous look in his eyes fell into Qin Luo Yi's eyes... Qin Luo Yi seemed to be lost in thought.

  However, she wasn't very interested in the jade pendant. What she was interested in was the purple ointment. The purple ointment was surprisingly identical to the medicine that the man in purple had given her ten days ago!

  Evening, Fragrant Garden

  "Did you see clearly? Is that scoundrel really okay?"

  "Mom, I've really taken a good look! She's not only fine, but her complexion is even better than before!"

  "How could this be? I've heard that thing is extremely potent. If the antidote isn't administered within an hour, it's certain death!"

  "But it's already been over ten days now! An hour has passed quickly, and the effect of the medicine is really that good... How can that scoundrel still be alive?"

  "Which one is it? It's been over ten days already, where exactly did the problem occur? Was that medicine fake?"

  In the pitch-black room, two extremely low voices disappeared, and then a faintly audible pacing sound arose.

  "Mother... You said, has the poison on her body been resolved?"

  "If the medicine is genuine, then it's highly likely!"

  "What are we going to do now? The wedding is approaching, can't just watch her marry the Third Prince? Mother, I don't want to... that ugly freak, what right does she have to marry the Third Prince..."

  "Hey, don't rush, we still have half a year. Now, the most important thing is to figure out whether the medicine was fake or if that cheap woman has lost her virginity! Haha, if she really did lose it, that would be great..."

  ……

  Two people were whispering in the house, but outside, a black figure was standing quietly against the wall, its slender body merging with the night as if by magic.

  At her feet, there was a black and shiny, yet well-hidden creature, staring with a pair of copper-bell-like eyes, fiercely gazing into the dark room.
