The little sister is a troublemaker

Chapter 376: Crown Princess of Northern Qi

Qingyu ignored Situ Yue, spared him and was about to leave.

Situ Yue was not willing to let it go and wanted to stop it, but was stopped by Long Yi who appeared out of nowhere.

Long Yi looked at Situ Yue expressionlessly, the sword in his hand shining with a cold light.

Situ Yue was afraid of Long Yi. After all, he was really powerful and he had already seen it.

But he still refused to give up, and said to Qingyu, "Sister-in-law, cooperate with me, and I will definitely help you get revenge."

Qingyu looked at him coldly, said nothing, then turned and left.

She then went to Chu Chenfeng's study and stayed there for a long time. She must have achieved her goal finally, so she left.

Before leaving, Chu Chenfeng said, "I'm afraid Lan'er won't agree. You..."

Qingyu bowed to Chu Chenfeng and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will explain it clearly to Xiaojiu, and Xiaojiu... will agree."

Chu Chenfeng sighed helplessly, "In this case, I won't say much. I wish you...get what you want."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

As soon as Qingyu came out, Long Yi stopped her and said, "I will go to Beiqi with you."

Qingyu frowned and refused reflexively, "No."

“Why not?

Qingyu let him go and wanted to leave, but Long Yi followed her relentlessly.

At a rockery, Qingyu was pestered by him and had no choice but to stop, "Long Yi, your responsibility is to protect Xiaojiu, especially when I'm not around."

"The master has plenty of people around him, including Yuan Ruo and Xiao Qi. I will call Jian Qi over as well, as well as Gui Yan. He owes me a promise, so I can keep him by the master's side for protection."

Long Yi's eyes were determined, as if he had made all the plans.

Qingyu said with a sad look on her face, "Long Yi, this is my own business."

"I know. I won't interfere with you in anything. I just... I will protect you in secret."

Qingyu felt a little reluctant, but she didn't want him to get involved in her affairs after all, "Long Yi, you deserve someone better, I'm not suitable."

Long Yi took a step forward, his face a little anxious, "I think it's appropriate."

"Xiaojiu should have told you that I was married and even had a child. But now, I am a woman who carries a blood feud. Feelings are not within my consideration."

"I can wait for you, until you have taken revenge, until you can really accept me. But please understand one thing. I don't mind you being married or having children. I only know that what matters to me is you as a person, and what I like is you as a person. It has nothing to do with anything else."

Qingyu's expression was somewhat moved, but she still forced herself to harden her heart. She turned around so that Long Yi wouldn't see her emotions clearly. "I said, I won't consider emotional matters now, and I won't consider them in the future. You don't have to waste your time on me."

Long pressed on step by step, unwilling to take a step back, "Who can tell what will happen in the future? I promise not to force you. But you can't stop me from following you."

"You... why are you doing this?"

Long Yi smiled, "I never feel bitter, as long as I can see you, I feel good."

"You..." Qingyu didn't know what to say, nor how to face him, "Whatever you want."

After saying that, she left in a hurry, leaving Long Yi standing there grinning foolishly. Did she... agree?

Not long after, Long Yi also left.

After a while, two people walked out from behind the rockery. They were Huo Yuanruo and Li Xiaoqi.

Each of them was holding a roasted pigeon in their hands, which should have been brought from the palace's kitchen.

Huo Yuanruo looked at the direction Long Yi left in disbelief, "Brother Long Yi is going to leave with Sister Qingyu? Where are you going?"

Li Xiaoqi took a bite of the roasted pigeon and said, "How should I know? It turns out that Boss Long Yi likes Sister Qingyu."

Huo Yuanruo glared at him angrily, "You just found out. I knew it a long time ago."

Li Xiaoqi snorted, "You and Sister Qingyu have been following the Master Sister, so you naturally know a little more than me. But, I didn't expect that Sister Qingyu was married? I really didn't see that."

"Well... what's wrong with being married? Sister Qingyu is so nice. Even if she's married, it doesn't affect Brother Long Yi's love for her. I think Brother Long Yi has good taste. Sister Qingyu is just very good."

"I didn't say she was bad. I also know that Sister Qingyu is good. I was just surprised and didn't expect it. Humph, if I knew who bullied Sister Qingyu, I would beat him so hard that he wouldn't even recognize his parents. He doesn't even know how to cherish such a good sister Qingyu."

Huo Yuanruo kicked him and said, "You are stupid. If that person didn't cherish him, how could Brother Long Yi have had a chance?"

Li Xiaoqi was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "That's true, but Sister Qingyu is leaving? Where are you going? And there's a blood feud, do you know?"

Huo Yuanruo shook his head. "I've never heard Sister Qingyu say that. She never mentioned her past. But I always feel that she seems to have experienced some very bad things. From time to time, she always... makes people feel that she is very sad and upset."

Li Xiaoqi took another bite of the roast chicken and said, "If it weren't for the fact that my master sister couldn't leave her side, I would have gone with her to help Sister Qingyu get revenge."

"No, I have to go talk to Junior Uncle-Master. Someone bullied Sister Qingyu. We must avenge her."

As he said that, he threw the roasted pigeon into Li Xiaoqi's arms and was about to leave. Li Xiaoqi pulled him back and said, "You are stupid. If you go at this time, Sister Qingyu might be talking to the master about this. Let's go later."

Sure enough, after Qingyu returned, she told Li Mulan that she was leaving.

Li Mulan was very surprised. This was the first time Qingyu said she wanted to leave in all these years.

"Is there something wrong?" Li Mulan thought of the family feud she had mentioned before, "Sister wants revenge."

Qingyu nodded, her face full of sorrow, "Xiaojiu, I am not going to hide this from you. I am from Northern Qi, and my father is Xiao Yunhai, the Northern Zhenbei General of Northern Qi. He devoted his whole life to Northern Qi. But in the end, because of me, he married the wrong person, his reputation was ruined, and his family was broken up. My brother was also torn apart by five horses because of me, and his body was incomplete. Over the years, there has been not a day that I didn't want to avenge them. However, I know that I don't have the ability to do so, and I have been waiting for the opportunity. And now, I think the time has come. I took the initiative to find the Regent and asked him to help me return to Northern Qi. I want to personally..."

"Stop, stop, stop." Li Mulan was a little confused. "Northern Qi's General Xiao Yunhai, then sister, aren't you...Northern Qi's Crown Princess Xiao Qingyu?"

That...that Situ Lian, is actually my sister's husband?

Qingyu smiled bitterly, "Yes, I am the former Crown Princess of Northern Qi, Xiao Qingyu. But now, I am no longer qualified to use the surname Xiao."
