[Quick Wear] On strike, please don't disturb your ex

Chapter 151 The Maids in the Palace Are on Strike (21)

Shen Fanli sighed softly in his heart.

"I'm not worried about you, Master Wen. I just asked casually."

King Qi spoke in a casual tone, saying, "After beating him up, I estimate he will need to be nursed back to health for at least half a month."

Song Liaoye stared at Shen Fanli's expression.

Shen Fanli frowned when he heard this, "How can Your Majesty do what he wants? Lord Wen is an official appointed by the court. If His Majesty knew about this, he would definitely be dissatisfied with Your Majesty. Besides, Lord Wen has never offended Your Majesty, so why should Your Majesty..."

Song Liaoye sneered, "Ha."

"Do you really want to marry into the Wen Mansion, marry Wen Honglang, become his wife, and then scheme against all the people in that family?"

Song Liaoye's narrow and long phoenix eyes contained a sharp light, and he sneered: "The water in the Wen Mansion is not shallow. He is just a junior official of the Dali Temple. The Wen Mansion in Jiangnan has always attached great importance to rules. Do you think he can really marry a maid as he wishes?"

Shen Fanli's brows had not relaxed since he started speaking.

She never said she wanted to be with Lord Wen, so how could he be so sure that she wanted to marry Lord Wen?

Besides, they were just friends, and they seldom spoke to each other when they met.

The last time she returned the silver hairpin to Lord Wen, she had no idea that Lord Wen had come to say those things, and she was also scolded by Prince Qi.

Shen Fanli shook his head and didn't want to say anything more.

It's not like she hadn't said it before, but he always suspected her and other men, and would get jealous and angry when he saw her getting close to other people.

But he himself has never done it.

He even kept a mistress and brought her into the house, but acted as if nothing had happened in front of her.

He said he never treated her as a maid, but he also called her a maid. Shen Fanli didn't know which of his words should make her sad.

Whenever Shen Fanli thought about this, she felt suffocated and uncomfortable.

She looked up into his eyes and asked, "Do you have someone else out there?"

It's not a question, but a narrative tone.

Her expression seemed calm, but if you listened carefully you could hear a hint of trembling in her tone.

Song Liaoye frowned, thinking that Shen Fanli was trying to change the subject.

"What do you mean by raising a human being? Don't change the subject."

Seeing that no one said anything, Song Liaoye said, "Don't get too close to those men in the future."

Shen Fanli shifted her gaze away from his face and whispered, "Yes, Your Majesty."

"If you have something to do, please go and do it. I'm sorry Fanli won't see you off."

Song Liaoye snorted coldly, waved his sleeves and left.

......

A few days passed.

Song Liaoye discovered that he hadn't seen Shen Fanli in the past few days.

She never came to his courtyard, nor did she go to his study to find him.

As for the lotus cake he mentioned, it was delivered, but it was still not delivered by Shen Fanli personally.

The same sachet as last time.

However, the taste has not changed.

Song Liaoye let out a light sigh. When he went to Mingkaiyuan to look for her, she was either out of the house or not in the room.

The two maids are not here either.

After going there three times, Song Liaoye became a little unhappy.

It couldn't be such a coincidence. Shen Fanli must not want to see him and was avoiding him.

As for the reason, don't think too much.

She must be angry with him because of Wen Honglang.

It happened exactly after I told her that day.

She is really spoiled!

They all dared to avoid seeing him.

Won’t I be able to climb over his head in the future?

Another day passed, and Shen Fanli still didn't come to see him.

Song Liaoye seemed to have completely forgotten what he had been thinking yesterday and just felt very uncomfortable.

After finishing the work, he subconsciously walked towards Mingkaiyuan again.

After waiting for more than half an hour and Shen Fanli still didn't come back, Song Liaoye left Mingkaiyuan with a gloomy face again.

Walking in the garden full of blooming flowers, Song Liaoye did not see that figure.

Unable to express his emotion, Song Liaoye was about to leave.

It happened that Steward Wei came to talk to someone about some things in the palace. When he was about to leave, Song Liaoye mentioned it casually, "Steward Wei, ask someone to ask where she has gone. She hasn't been seen for days."

Steward Wei was about to leave when he suddenly heard these words. He was stunned for a moment before he realized who the prince was talking about.

It must be Miss Shen.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After hearing the order, Manager Wei also reacted quickly and responded immediately. Almost everyone who was close to them knew that the prince and Miss Shen had been having a quarrel in the past few days. Then he added another sentence, teasing the Prince Qi who he had watched grow up.

"Your Majesty, Miss Shen has a very good temper and is very caring towards many people around her. She is a kind-hearted girl. It is extraordinary that you, Your Majesty, can make Miss Shen angry."

Gao Yu beside him nodded vigorously, as if to confirm his words, and said: "Miss Shen is indeed angry. She has ignored the prince for at least three days. Didn't you see that the prince's face is not very good these days?"

The more Gao Yu spoke, the softer his voice became, as if he was afraid that someone might hear him.

The man next to him took a look at His Royal Highness Prince Qi's face, and it really did not look good.

Not only is it bad, it can almost be described as very bad.

In fact, Song Liaoye did hear it and his face turned ashen.

He corrected it word by word, "It's Saturday."

"It has been six days, and she has not paid any attention to me. She has been avoiding me."

He was a little annoyed, "She is getting bolder and bolder. I don't know who gave her the courage to ignore me!"

Gao Yu and the butler next to them glanced at each other and then looked at His Royal Highness Prince Qi who was looking cold and sullen.

It was him!

Where is anyone else?

Song Liaoye looked at him coldly, and the two of them looked down at the pebbles on the ground at the same time.

It was as if the person who just looked at Song Liaoye was someone else.

Song Liaoye snorted coldly when he saw this.

Shen Fanli left home today.

She didn't want to see His Royal Highness Prince Qi these days.

But she didn't expect that she would hear rumors about Prince Qi's affair when she came out for tea.

She sat in a seat near the window, with Bi'er and Jing'er sitting next to her.

The two guards refused to sit down together no matter what, and standing was too conspicuous, so they simply found an empty table and sat down.

They were a certain distance away from Shen Fanli and the others, but not too far, so they could observe what was happening and take action immediately.

King Qi has ordered that no matter what happens, Miss Shen must be protected.

These two guards were not ordinary guards, but Prince Qi's secret guards. They were skilled in martial arts and could be considered the two most capable guards around Prince Qi.

Of course, this is based on fighting strength.

Just after she had sat in the teahouse for half an hour, the people at the back table left, and not long after, two more people sat down.

Because of their position, Shen Fanli and the others were able to hear the conversation between the two. The two did not say anything outrageous, they were just chatting about everything under the sun.

Shen Fanli listened and found it quite interesting, with a smile on his lips.

Then, when she heard King Qi from the back table, the smile on Shen Fanli's lips faded.
