Chapter 156.2 - Serving one person together
Also, what was his father thinking, suddenly making Lou Qingwu a countess?
Furthermore, where did he go wrong, where did this Qiao Mei suddenly pop up out of?
Every single thread of strangeness made Xiahou Qing’s brows furrow tighter.
But he’d already come to the palace so he could only continue to Kunning palace and greet the empress.
It seemed like his plans were changing and he really had underestimated Lou Qingwu previously.
She was dodging his plans, one after another, she definitely wasn’t as simple as she seemed.
He definitely had to investigate her even more quickly!
When Xiahou Qing left the palace, he headed back to his third prince’s residence immediately.
Ye Ji was already waiting for news in his study.
Once he pushed open the door, he stood upright and had a nasty expression on his face, “What happened here?”
“You’re asking me? Who should I go ask?”
Originally, their perfect plan had gone to waste.
But this was happening time after time.
“This can only mean that the person you found, was bad!”
“The person I found? Don’t forget, the person who was organising things from the palace was imperial consort Ruan. That’s your side. Don’t talk c.r.a.p, you hypocrite! Who knows what the h.e.l.l she said to consort Ying. The new consort is apparently from her palace too. Isn’t that just fantastic? A servant and a master serving the same person, that’s just great!” Ye Ji mocked him, coldly.
She’d schemed for so long but Lou Qingwu had still somehow escaped, even getting the t.i.tle of ‘countess’.
This had completely cut off the possibility of her becoming a consort ever.
“Even if you repeat it a hundred times, a thousand times, it’s already set in stone. No one can change anything now.”
She sprawled defeatedly on a chair, very upset, “Then what do we do next? Who cares about Shangguan Yiyun, even this affair failed.”
“It’s not a complete failure. At least father listened to consort Ying a little and there really is a new consort in the palace now.” So, they hadn’t completely failed.
At least, with a new consort, his father had an excuse to delay the crowning of the crown prince.
Furthermore, Lou Qingwu not becoming his father’s woman, also made him sigh in relief.
“And now you’re happy, but what about me?” Lou Qingwu hadn’t been removed, brother Ye definitely won’t give up on her.
“I feel like, what you should be worrying about is Qiao Mei.” Towards Ye Ji’s trivialising of big matters and making a molehill of small matters, Xiahou Qing could only coldly sneer at her.
A woman using her emotions to make decisions!
She absolutely couldn’t grasp the important points.
Even if she got rid of Lou Qingwu, Feng Yege wouldn’t look upon her in a million years.
If he didn’t like her ten years ago, he still wouldn’t like her now.
Furthermore, the Night Prince was such a cold and haughty person, he wasn’t the type to drown himself in beauties.
The thing that he liked, was in the inside.
So even if he looked upon Lou Qingwu, it meant that she had something inside that attracted him.
His ears seemed to hear again, making his gaze grow dark. “Qiao Mei? Where did she come from?” Ye Ji finally calmed down before narrowing her eyes, “I have no impression from that name.”
“If I’m not wrong, it should be someone that Xiahou Rui put into Liuhua palace.”
“Hmph, why don’t you guess that it’s Lou Qingwu’s person?”
Ye Ji was very uncomfortable with how biased Xiahou Qing was towards Lou Qingwu.
What was so good about that Lou Qingwu anyway?
She only had a pretty face.
She, Ye Ji, was the princess of the Yuebai clan, where did she lose to her anywhere?
But she was still somehow able to seduce her brother Ye, making her brother Ye avoid her like she was made of poison.
Xiahou Qing looked at her contemptuously, “That Qiao Mei entered the palace three years ago and had stayed inside Liuhua palace for all of those years. She even entered before consort Ying. Three years ago, where was Lou Qingwu? She was only a barely 12 year old girl, and in the country side, what could she scheme?”
Furthermore, three years ago, Lou Qingwu had never even entered the palace.
So even if she wanted to safely place someone inside Liuhua palace, it’d be harder than stepping onto the sky.
Ye Ji really was a big breasted and small minded person.
Xiahou Qing’s obvious contempt for her made Ye Ji’s face redden, “How would I know that? In your eyes, Lou Qingwu’s probably just the best at everything right? Then why don’t you go and marry her!”
