However, before Xiao Tianyi could hit Yun Qianyu, Xiao Jiuyuan’s cold voice came from the hall, “Xiao Tianyi, are you planning to commit murder in my residence?”
Xiao Tianyi’s expression stiffened and his hand stopped in mid-air.
Looking down, Xiao Tianyi saw Yun Qianyu’s figure with the setting sun shining on her side. She had a stern expression as she gritted her teeth and said, “Xiao Tianyi, one day, I will surely take my revenge. I will certainly do so.”
With that, she went past Xiao Tianyi and walked into the main hall.
Behind her, Xiao Tianyi suddenly felt as if his heart was empty. He felt pain and depressed, as though he would be losing something forever.
‘Why? Why do I feel like this?’
Xiao Tianyi forcibly repressed the uncomfortable feeling in his heart. He then turned and followed Yun Qianyu back into the main hall.
He then said, “Yun Qianyu, why can’t you and Xue’er coexist peacefully?”
Yun Qianyu did not pay any attention to Xiao Tianyi and only looked calmly at Xiao Jiuyuan.
Xiao Jiuyuan wore a casual lavender color robe and a jade belt with the same color around his waist. He seemed less arrogant and domineering, but instead had a more lazy and noble demeanor. Reading a book while he lazed on his chair, Xiao Jiuyuan did not seem like an evil person.
However, no one in the hall dared to provoke him.
Even though Xiao Jiuyuan had played her, Yun Qianyu did not want to provoke the guy.
Xiao Jiuyuan saw Yun Qianyu coming in, looked at her with a shadow of a smile and said with a flat voice, “I heard you blocked the gate of my residence.”
After he said that, an evil glint appeared in his eyes.
Yun Qianyu tugged at the corners of her lips and said calmly, “Your Highness is thinking too much into it. How could I have blocked your gate? I just so happened to be in the neighborhood and as the future princess consort, I couldn’t just pass by and not visit you. If I did that, outsiders would think that we are having a quarrel. Also, I have something to discuss with your Highness, thus I waited outside for a while.”
“Yes, yes, Feather would never do anything like that. Ninth imperial uncle, you’re mistaken.”
After Xiao Yechen said that, Xiao Jiuyuan turned to him lazily and gave him a look. Immediately Xiao Yechen settled down, remembering Xiao Jiuyuan’s warning from before that if he dared to mix up with Yun Qianyu again, he would be sent to the Dragon Scale army for training.
Xiao Yechen knew how intense the Dragon Scale army trained.
Thus, Xiao Yechen was silent, but another gentle voice was heard coming from the other side of the hall, “Is this our future ninth imperial aunt? What a bold character!”
Yun Qianyu looked over quickly and saw a man sitting not far from Xiao Jiuyuan. The man was dressed in a bright yellow robe. His face was elegant and had a studious look. He moved gently and had a warm smile which seemed very welcoming.
Yun Qianyu, however, disliked this man on sight; his style and demeanor were very similar to the Eternal Peace Marquis Yun Lei’s. Even though they acted kind and gentle, they were often rotten to the core.
Even if she didn’t like him she still showed him respect.
“Your subject greets his Highness Crown Prince.”
This man, dressed in a bright yellow robe and with a gentle face, was the crown prince Xiao Tianyu.
“Rise,” Xiao Tianyu motioned to Yun Qianyu. After thanking him, Yun Qianyu got up and looked at Xiao Jiuyuan, “Your Highness, I have something to discuss with you.”
