Chapter 93 -93: Elder Princess, Don’t Take the Opportunity to Grope Around!

Xiang Ying immediately shifted toward his direction, sitting almost shoulder to shoulder with him.

“What room for negotiation? Let’s hear it.”

Jie Chen lowered his gaze and glanced at their touching shoulders.

Then he slowly said, “For the exiled criminals, only two meals can be provided daily.”

Supervisor Ke couldn’t stand it anymore and slammed the table, shouting, “What kind of condition is that? Just say you want to agree to her and be done with it!”

Jie Chen turned to him, his thin lips calmly uttering, “This also isn’t bad for us.”

Supervisor Ke raised his hand to press against his brow.

Jie Chen was beyond help!

Xiang Ying smiled, “Then it’s settled.”

As she turned to leave, Supervisor Ke immediately barked, “Wait!”

Xiang Ying looked back.

Supervisor Ke rubbed his stubbled chin, wanting to impose his authority.

Otherwise, if Xiang Ying always got her way so smoothly, this woman who was brave and skilled would sooner or later rise above them.

But looking into Xiang Ying’s eyes, Supervisor Ke suddenly didn’t know what to say.

After thinking it over, Supervisor Ke cursed symbolically, “In the future, you better share more fish with us.”

Xiang Ying raised her brows, “Is that all? No problem.”

She walked away with a casual elegance.

Jie Chen stood up and followed her leave.

Supervisor Ke, however, regretted a bit and stroked his stubble, pondering, “She agreed so readily; should I have made a tougher demand?”

Seventh Princess had prepared a new register for Xiang Ying, covering all the remaining exiled criminals on the ship.

“Big sister, everyone has heard that you fought for their food, and they are all very grateful.”

While looking through the list, Xiang Ying asked, “Are you still staying in the same room with Xiang Qianqian? Has she given you any trouble?”

Seventh Princess laughed, “Would she dare? She’s already scared stiff by big sister and is now incredibly well-behaved, not daring to say excess words.”

Xiang Ying closed the register and tucked it away.

She smiled, “Tonight, I’m making a seafood hotpot, bring Yu Pin with you.”

Seventh Princess agreed joyfully.

Xiang Ying took her fishing net and headed toward the bow of the ship.

Passing by a tightly shut door, suddenly a feeble voice from Fang Qian came through, “Someone! Is there anyone in charge? I’m going to die.”

Xiang Ying paused her steps, and through the gap in the window, she saw Fang Qian chained by his hands and feet, leaning against the cabin.

Every move sent the chains on his arms clanging.

Xiang Ying thought for a moment and used a piece of wire to pry open the lock on the door.

Seeing her, Fang Qian opened his eyes; his appearance was still handsome but lacked a bit of vitality.

He looked like a frostbitten eggplant, pitiful.

“Elder Princess, you still deign to visit me! I kindly warned you guys that the Military Doctor had escaped, and that bastard Jie Chen even suspects I’m in league with him. It’s been two days, and they aren’t even giving me water,” he lamented.

“If I were with the Military Doctor, I would’ve escaped with him long ago,” he said, almost crying, looking very aggrieved.

Ultimately, Fang Qian blurted, “Elder Princess, I’ve followed you for five or six years! You can’t just treat me like this because you have a new favorite.”

Xiang Ying narrowed her eyes, “Five or six years with me and you still haven’t achieved your goal?”

Fang Qian’s face, full of grievance, stiffened, “What do you mean by that, Elder Princess?”

“What do I mean?” Xiang Ying took off the water flask at her side, opened the cap, and began pouring out the water onto the ground beside her.

Fang Qian, in desperation, kicked out, “Don’t waste it!”

Xiang Ying stopped her action, her Phoenix Eyes coldly looking at him.

“If you want water, tell the truth. Have you been staying by my side all this time just for the Jade Seal?”

Fang Qian paused, turning away: “No, don’t make wild guesses.”

Xiang Ying responded with an “Oh,” and said, “It seems you’re not thirsty enough, then keep waiting here, I’m leaving.”

She turned to leave, about to re-lock the door.

Fang Qian became anxious: “Wait! Elder Princess, why won’t you believe me? What motive could I have?”

“I was just afraid that water bandits would come and rob everything. You were with three kids, and I wanted to help you shoulder some of the burden.”

Xiang Ying chuckled: “I see.”

She stepped out, briskly closing the door, ready to lock it.

But she deliberately slowed down her movements.

Counting down in her heart: three… two…

At that moment, Fang Qian’s voice came from inside the door: “Isn’t what I’m saying enough? Come back!”

Xiang Ying reopened the door: “I’ll give you a moment. Speak quickly if you’re going to speak, I still have fish to catch.”

Fang Qian’s eyes were as dark as a puppy’s, perhaps a bit red from lack of sleep in recent days.

He looked at Xiang Ying with a somewhat helpless tone: “I’ve long heard from those exiled criminals that the elder princess has changed from before, and I didn’t believe it.”

“Now after seeing for myself, it turns out to be true, the elder princess is very clever, indeed seeing through my intention in an instant. I have been following you for the Jade Seal.”

Xiang Ying raised her eyebrow: “What do you want the Jade Seal for?”

“Looking for someone,” Fang Qian’s expression grew dim, “With the Jade Seal, I can command the Xuanjia Army, and they can help me find my long-lost sister.”

Xiang Ying kicked him and Fang Qian cried out in pain.

“Still lying? Do you need the Jade Seal to find your sister? Isn’t that like using a butcher’s knife to kill a chicken?”

Fang Qian endured the pain: “I really am looking for my sister! Five years ago, Lady schemed to frame Lipin for a fake pregnancy, and the Emperor executed all of the palace maids around Lipin, including my sister.”

Xiang Ying pondered for a moment.

She searched the original owner’s memories and it seemed there was such an incident.

However, since the matter had nothing to do with the original owner, only a few words were heard about it.

Xiang Ying coldly asked, “Since they were executed, why are you still looking for her?”

“She didn’t die, but managed to get a letter to me. She said she was successfully sent out of the palace, but I don’t know where she went. I’ve been searching for her all these years.”

Fang Qian’s eyes were brimming with redness: “If the elder princess doesn’t believe me, I have her portrait here with me.”

Xiang Ying stepped forward and rummaged through his clothes.

Fang Qian hissed, his face flushing red.

“Elder Princess, don’t take advantage of the situation to grope around!”

“Who’s groping? I’m looking for the portrait.”

Finally, Xiang Ying found a piece of paper and pulled it out to see.

Indeed, it was a portrait of a girl.

And judging by the smell of the ink on it and the slightly yellowed edges, it was determined to be a portrait that had been drawn long ago, not something Fang Qian had prepared on the fly to fool her.

Xiang Ying observed the girl in the portrait who appeared to be around thirteen or fourteen years old, with delicate features and a small mole on her nose.

“Oh, this person…”

Fang Qian suddenly became excited: “Elder Princess, have you seen my sister?”

Xiang Ying shook her head and clicked her tongue: “I only wanted to say that I haven’t seen this person, and I can’t help you because the Jade Seal is not with me. Don’t waste your efforts.”

After saying this, she unlocked Fang Qian’s chains and handed him the water bag.

Fang Qian gulped down the water, wiped the drops from his jaw, and with puppy-like eyes, looked up and asked: “Not enough, got more?”

Xiang Ying raised her eyebrows: “I’ll have someone send you some later. Just wait.”

As she turned to leave, Fang Qian behind her suddenly said: “Thank you, Elder Princess, for saving my life. In the future, I will accompany the elder princess while continuing to search for the Jade Seal. I hope Your Highness won’t abandon me.”

Xiang Ying didn’t respond, but closed the door and left.

Fang Qian formed half a smile, water droplets trailing down his chin, his eyes dark.
