"… Got it!" Xue Ningyu scoffed.
Li Gui slowly retreated.
He knew that the princess was in a bad mood, so he wouldn't go up to her. If he wasn't the deputy director, he would also hide far away like Song Sansi!
Xue Ningyu looked at Prince An.
Prince An's expression was calm and indifferent, as if he did not hear the news just now.
Song Liuying sighed softly, "Your Highness, are we going to ignore it?"
"Endure!" Prince An spat out coldly.
Song Liuying said, "I'm just afraid that they will continue to kill!"
"I still have to endure it!" King An said coldly, "As long as they don't kill you and me, I will endure it!"
"… Royal Highness, please recover your martial arts as soon as possible!" Xue Ningyu said.
Prince An gritted his teeth and looked like he was struggling. In the end, he slowly said, "I will recover as soon as possible and teach Ninth Brother a lesson that he will never forget!"
The two women nodded silently, not in the mood to talk.
Suddenly, footsteps could be heard from outside and Li Gui's voice could be heard, "Wangfei!"
"What is it now!" Xue Ningyu thought that she was going to hear bad news again, she scoffed impatiently, "Hurry up and tell me!"
"… Princess, good news!" Li Gui said excitedly, "The two masters were killed by the Head Chief!"
"Head Chief? Did you hear wrongly? "Xue Ningyu scoffed and looked at Prince An.
Unfortunately, Li Gui wasn't in front of him and couldn't see his expression.
Li Gui said, "That's right, it was the Head Chief who dealt with those two fellows. They're both Grandmasters! It really is … "
Li Gui was so happy that he did not notice Xue Ningyu's tone.
"Shut up!" Xue Ningyu scoffed.
Li Gui's voice came to an abrupt halt as he was greatly surprised.
Xue Ningyu said coldly, "Alright, I know, you may leave!"
"… Yes." Li Gui was baffled. He thought that since he had reported good news, the Princess should be happy. Maybe she would reward him greatly. He didn't expect such a reaction!
The atmosphere in the study was so oppressive that one could hear a pin drop.
Prince An's face was so gloomy that it looked like it was about to drip water. His eyes were bright and burning with anger.
The two women looked at each other and sighed inwardly. The Head Chief was also a smart person. Why are you doing such foolish things?
Prince An suddenly let out a cold laugh, "Heh! He's everywhere! "
The two women did not speak.
They understood that this was not a good time to talk about it.
Pleading for the chief steward was like adding oil to the fire. If he didn't plead for the chief steward, he was afraid that the prince would continue to speak and might immediately make an irreversible decision.
Prince An breathed heavily. Her body was already weak to begin with. Now that she was agitated by Chu Li's news, she immediately felt uncomfortable. Her pale cheeks flushed red as if she was drunk.
"Wangye!" The two women were shocked and quickly reached out to pat him to calm him down.
Xue Ningyu said, "Your Royal Highness, don't think too much, calm down and have a good rest. The most important thing is to recover as soon as possible! "
"Don't bother about these trivial matters." Song Liuying nodded.
"Who sent him the news?!" Prince An tried his best to suppress his anger, and said coldly, "Find him and chase him out of the residence!"
The two women immediately revealed a troubled expression.
Leaving the residence now was tantamount to courting death. Prince Cheng's guards outside would not let him go.
Song Liuying's mind raced and she scoffed, "It's me!"
Prince An's expression changed, his eyes pierced her like a sword, "You — —?!"
Song Liuying said, "I've tried to persuade Chu Li to be more well-behaved and not to anger you, Your Royal Highness. Otherwise, Your Royal Highness might really kick him out of the Public House. I didn't expect him to be so stubborn. He still did such a thing! "
"Hmph, he will never let go of such an act of buying people's hearts!" Prince An sneered, "His wild ambition is as clear as day!"
Song Liuying said, "Then should we chase him out of the residence now?"
"Chase him out of the residence?" Prince An said coldly, "What reason do we have, because he helped us. He avenged the people in the residence, so we have to chase him out? "
"Just chase him out, why do we have to care about the reason?" Song Liuying said.
She also understood that after Chu Li did such a thing, the Royal Highness would definitely not tolerate him. It was better to just let him go. To avoid a fatal disaster.
"No!" Prince An shook his head, "He's rank one, without a valid reason, we can't chase him out!"
Xue Ningyu said, "Then we'll find an excuse after this, … Royal Highness, calm down, don't bother about him!"
"I will warn him again, to make him more obedient." Song Liuying said.
Prince An suddenly regained his calmness, he said lightly, "It'll be weird if he listens to you! … Alright, let him be, if he wants to buy people's hearts then let him be, let's see if he can jump? Until when! "
A faint sneer hung on the corner of his mouth.
The two ladies felt a chill in their hearts, they knew that he had the intention to kill, no matter what, he was going to kill Chu Li!
Prince An quickly became sleepy again.
Xue Ningyu bid farewell and left, hurrying to Tianshu Courtyard.
In Tianshu Courtyard, the lanterns were already lit, the small courtyard was illuminated as if it was daytime.
Siao Shi had already entered the house, she could not stand the eerie coldness outside.
Chu Li was still in his white robe, quietly sitting by the stone table, holding a book in his hand, reading it attentively, occasionally revealing a knowing smile.
Xue Ningyu came to the small courtyard, seeing his calm smile, she said impatiently, "Head Chief, you still have the mood to read!"
Chu Li put down the book, stood up and closed fist saluted, "Princess Xue, the Lady is in the house."
"I'm looking for you!" Xue Ningyu scoffed, her sweet and charming face showed a helpless expression, "Why did you attack again!"
"So it's this matter," Chu Li smiled.
Xue Ningyu stared at him, sighed, "Do you know that this will anger His Royal Highness?"
Chu Li said, "His Royal Highness must be blaming me for winning people's hearts, I have bad intentions!"
"Since you know, why did you still provoke His Royal Highness!" Xue Ningyu said impatiently, "At first we were thinking of finding a chance to give His Royal Highness some pillow talk, so that he will not have the intention to kill you, but you're just adding fuel to the fire!"
Chu Li sighed, "Princess, do you want me to watch others bully our residence, and kill people without restraint?"
Xue Ningyu sighed, "You saved the people of the residence, but you brought a fatal disaster upon yourself!"
She had already said it bluntly, she believed that Chu Li could understand.
Chu Li said, "Even if His Royal Highness wants to kill me, I can't tolerate the Imperial Residence being bullied like this, and the people of the Imperial Residence being killed without restraint!"
"Why are you so stubborn!" Xue Ningyu said impatiently, "Why do you have to kill people, you can just secretly chase them away!"
"They killed people of our residence, how can we just let them leave!" Chu Li said coldly.
Xue Ningyu looked at him helplessly.
Chu Li said, "Princess, you don't have to persuade me, as long as I am in the residence, it doesn't matter if His Royal Highness kills me or not, I will not allow anyone to bully us!"
"You, you …" Xue Ningyu pointed at him, she was touched and helpless, she was filled with emotions, but she did not know what to say.
Chu Li said, "Princess, you don't have to persuade His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness is determined to kill me, if I see that the situation is not good, I will run away and return to the Public House!"
"In my opinion, you should leave now," Xue Ningyu said, "Don't wait for His Royal Highness to wake up."
Chu Li looked into the house.
Xue Ningyu said, "Sister Siao will be fine."
Chu Li shook his head, and said calmly, "I promised someone to take good care of the Lady."
