The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day-Chapter 34 - 35 Palace Banquet

Ye Qichi lay in the bath.

Lu You helped her wash away the dirt and blood stains from her body.

"Princess, the arrow wound on your back is scabbing!" Lu You exclaimed.

Thinking about how the Princess's finger wound had healed quickly after she cut it herself, initially she thought it was just a minor trick the Princess was playing on her, but now it seems, it's real!

There had been blood all over the carriage just now, but now it looks simply like a small cut on the skin.

Ye Qichi didn't explain to Lu You, but lazily said, "Just keep it to yourself."

However, Xiao Jinxing seemed to have noticed something.

What can he do about it?!

Anyway, he cannot figure it out, she is not Ye Qichi.

"Oh." Lu You obediently nodded, then suddenly thought of something, "Princess, you said you risked your life to save the Prince, could the Prince have been moved by your act?"

Nonsense!

As if he could have such a noble emotion!

At this moment, Ye Qichi had also figured it out, the person most likely behind Xiao Jinxing's assassination attempt was none other than Xiao Jinxing's only backer, the Empress Dowager.

The Crown Prince and the King of Chu are just restraining each other at this moment, neither daring to make a rash move. The one who most wants to cause chaos between the two, is only the Empress Dowager.

Empress Dowager wants the Crown Prince and the King of Chu to fight, and Xiao Jinxing to benefit.

And Xiao Jinxing surely knows that this was the Empress Dowager's scheme, so he knew he would definitely not die in the assassination, knowingly letting her take the arrow for him...

Fortunately, she didn't care.

Her relationship with him was just about interests.

Xiao Jinxing, being so astute, would definitely not refuse the advantages laid before him!

Perhaps that's why, Xiao Jinxing could clearly have killed her but ultimately chose to bring her back to his residence.

"Princess, I hadn't realized how much you love the Prince," Lu You sighed.

She knew previously that the Princess had fallen in love with the Prince at first sight, but she didn't realize it was to the extent of not even caring about her own life.

Ye Qichi gave Lu You a disdainful glance, "Which eye of yours sees that I love him?!"

Both eyes!

"Do I love his ruthlessness? Love his poker face? Love his desire to kill me?"

Lu You was left speechless.

"But..." Ye Qichi paused, "his face is still somewhat tolerable."

"..." Lu You felt, it was better to say nothing.

She couldn't argue.

...

One month later.

Ye Qichi said she was recuperating, but she was really just sleeping every day in the courtyard.

During this month, Xiao Jinxing also did not come to see her, and she lived leisurely.

However, this kind of life became a bit dull after a long time.

She was calculating when Xiao Jinxing would possibly become emperor, and once peace was restored and her family was secure, she planned to embark on adventures.

Pondering this.

Suddenly, Lu You ran in from outside, panicked and sweaty, "Not good, Princess, not good!"

Ye Qichi was lying on a recliner sunbathing, totally relaxed.

Was Lu You bewitched?!

"What happened?" Ye Qichi remained completely calm.

"General Bai, General Bai, General Bai is back!" Lu You's words were unclear.

General Bai? Bai Wenwu.

The bravest general of the Daxuan Kingdom, wielding control over a million troops, he has been guarding the border for years, even the emperor has to give him some respect.

"The father of Bai Mowan," muttered Ye Qichi.

"Princess, you indeed still care about Miss Bai's presence."

"..." Lu You not becoming an editor is truly a waste.

She really knows how to add drama.

"Official Wu just came looking for you, I made an excuse that you were sleeping and did not let him enter the yard," Lu You reported.

It was Ye Qichi who had instructed Lu You beforehand, that if Xiao Jinxing's people come, she should not meet with them.

Lu You thought she was angry because the Prince hadn't come to see her for so long.

In fact, she genuinely did not want to see him.

"Tomorrow night, the Emperor will host a banquet to welcome General Bai and his family. Both the Prince and the Princess are to attend. The Prince has asked you to change into your palace attire and go to the Imperial Palace tomorrow morning."

Would she be seeing the Emperor and Empress so soon?!

Thinking about it made her quite excited.

"Princess?" Seeing that the Princess did not reply, Lu You said uncomfortably, "How about pretending to be sick and not going?"

"Go, why wouldn't I go!" Ye Qichi said excitedly, "I also want to see what Bai Mowan looks like!"

If she remembered correctly.

The Emperor hosting this banquet for Bai Wenwu, besides showing hospitality, importantly was to propose a marriage for Bai Mowan to the Prince of Chu, but Bai Mowan would reject it on the spot. She felt elated when she read about it, being there in person would be thrilling!

"Princess, please don't do anything foolish. Tomorrow I am not entitled to enter the palace with you," Lu You said with a worried face.

Not sure if the Princess was overwhelmed, this seems like happiness?!

Everyone knows that since childhood, Prince Chen has adored Miss Bai, but since Miss Bai has always been enamored with the Prince of Chu, Prince Chen settled for second best and married a Princess who resembled Miss Bai.

The Princess knew it too; she was initially unwilling to get married, saying she didn't want to be someone else's replacement. Little did she know that upon laying eyes on Prince Chen for the first time, she would be captivated by his looks, and then dutifully take on the role of the aggrieved wife, fantasizing that one day Prince Chen would develop feelings for her.

"Nonsense!" Ye Qichi gave Lu You a glare.

She was going tomorrow to enjoy a spectacle.

The next morning.

Ye Qichi was woken up early by Lu You.

She had been sleeping in for a long while; waking up this early was torturous.

With Lu You's fussing, she changed into the opulent and complex attire of Prince Chen's wife, all glittering and resplendent!

It must be said, someone with Ye Qichi's looks was suited to wear flamboyant, gaudy attire, the more magnificent, the more it highlighted her stunning beauty. Unlike ordinary women, she didn't carry a vulgar air in such clothing; she looked enchantingly alluring instead.

"Princess, in this attire, you'll surely outshine Miss Bai," Lu You said confidently.

She had no intention of overshadowing Bai Mowan.

Bai Mowan was Xiao Jinxing's cherished love, she never thought of taking over that cherished spot.

After dressing up.

Ye Qichi headed to the waiting carriage at the front gate.

Xiao Jinxing was already waiting inside the carriage for her.

When the two of them looked at each other.

Ye Qichi suddenly smiled.

Xiao Jinxing's eyes tightened.

Ye Qichi said, "Didn't expect we would be wearing matching outfits."

"..." Nothing but nonsense from his mouth.

Ye Qichi sat beside Xiao Jinxing.

The two of them hadn't seen each other for a month, and Xiao Jinxing still disliked her.

This time, Ye Qichi was rather proactive, she initiated, "How are you feeling now?"

Xiao Jinxing didn't spare Ye Qichi a glance.

"I heard about tonight's royal banquet, your father the Emperor intends to betroth Miss Bai to Prince Chu," Ye Qichi said maliciously.

"What are you trying to say?" Xiao Jinxing's expression darkened.

"Just saying."

"Even if Wan'er marries someone else, I would never have feelings for you."

"..."

This man is so conceited.
