Chapter 256 Second Update
At that moment, Qi Yu’s heart gradually became cold. When the Commandery Princess asked that question, she did not even stand up, her face barely showing any concern.
Qi Yu suddenly felt that one should not scrutinize human emotions too closely, as the deeper one looked, the more indifference one could unearth.
"Now that the Commandery Princess has found a good situation, naturally, you will forget our Crown Prince, and you should forget our Crown Prince," Qi Yu said coldly, preparing to rise. He finally understood why his lord preferred it this way and did not allow anyone to transmit messages.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Nianru angrily swept all the fruit in front of her to the ground, her already agitated heart growing even more restless because of Qi Yu’s words.
Was there anything in Qi Yu’s expression that she failed to see? Even though she was only thirteen or fourteen years old, she could tell. Unfeeling? Heartless? These descriptors had never applied to her. Qi Yu also had no right to stand on her territory and lecture her.
Qi Yu stopped in his tracks. He had not truly intended to leave, otherwise he would not have made the trip. But although his heart had cooled, the Crown Prince still needed to be saved. Even if it was mere pretense and an act, it didn’t matter. They were blind and could pretend not to see.
Nanny Yun, Fu Dong, and Nian Xia, who were guarding outside, were startled and wanted to sneak a peek but did not dare.
What was happening today? Why was there so much unrest? They had just been pursued, and now the Crown Prince was causing this disturbance. What exactly was going on today?
"What exactly happened to Zheng Congyuan?" Zheng Nianru quickly calmed down. Had he fainted? She could be sure that Zheng Congyuan did not have any concealed ailments. On the contrary, underneath his gentle and scholarly appearance, Zheng Congyuan possessed some physical skills, not just anyone could get close to him.
"I do not know, your highness. The Crown Prince does not allow the summoning of the Imperial Physician," Qi Yu said, his eyes reddening further. If they had even the slightest means, they would never set foot in the Qishun Building.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Nianru understood Qi Yu’s intention and immediately put on her shoes to go outside.
