Chapter 203 Subconscious Reaction
He didn't dare to push too hard, for fear that An Qingqian would say she didn't want to, and he also felt that the waiting time was too long.
He had been holding it in for several days, but today he finally couldn't bear it anymore and couldn't suppress the longing in his heart, so he came here in the middle of the night to find An Qingqian, risking being discovered by An Zhenyuan.
"Prince, I..." An Qingqian pursed her lips and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Shi Qiuwu.
"Qianqian, don't call me Prince, call me by my name, Qiuwu." A steady and powerful voice came from above his head, and his chest vibrated as he spoke.
An Qingqian smelled the sandalwood on him and felt inexplicably at ease.
Although the two of them had already had an intimate relationship, she really couldn't call him Qiu Wu because it was difficult and awkward to say.
Seeing that An Qingqian stopped talking, Shi Qiuwu couldn't help but smile. He lowered his eyes to look at the person in his arms and asked in a gentle voice.
"Qianqian, why don't you shout?"
"I feel a little bad." An Qingqian gritted her teeth, but still couldn't shout out. It was too embarrassing.
"If you don't shout, I will kiss you now, do you believe it?" Shi Qiuwu was eager to hear her call his name.
Instead of the distant and unfamiliar title of "Your Highness the Crown Prince", he didn't want to hear it from An Qingqian's mouth.
"Don't..." An Qingqian was shocked when she heard Shi Qiuwu say that.
She raised her head and tried to escape from Shi Qiuwu's arms, but he had anticipated her movements and held her arms tightly, so she could not move at all.
"Prince, please don't joke like this, I..." An Qingqian struggled hard. She felt that she seemed to be in danger.
However, she had only said half of her words when a dark shadow fell over her the next second.
An Qingqian became nervous and attacked the other party directly.
Shi Qiuwu didn't expect that An Qingqian would actually attack him. He was stunned at first, then he quickly grabbed An Qingqian's right hand with his right hand and stopped moving his body.
"Qianqian, you don't want to?" An Qingqian's actions made Shi Qiuwu feel a little frustrated, and a trace of hurt flashed across his eyes uncontrollably.
"No, that's not what I meant." An Qingqian choked. She just reacted subconsciously.
The two maintained this strange posture, staring at each other.
At this time, there was a sound of opening the door.
"Miss?" Yingyi froze at the door, holding a pot of tea.
Shi Qiuwu didn't expect that An Qingqian's maid was so tactless that she would barge in at this time. He quickly straightened An Qingqian's body, let her go, and the two of them sat down.
An Qingqian blinked, not daring to look at Shi Qiuwu's expression, and coughed twice, "Ahem, Yingyi, come in."
Yingyi glared at Shi Qiuwu from behind, taking advantage of her absence to dare to touch their young lady.
Why didn't she realize before that the Crown Prince Shi Qiuwu was actually such a person.
Yingyi quickly calmed down, walked in calmly, and placed the tea on the table.
After pouring a cup of tea for Shi Qiuwu, he handed it to him respectfully and said stiffly, "Prince, please have some tea."
An Qingqian's ears turned slightly red, and she sat there pretending to be calm.
She first glanced at Shi Qiuwu's expression, then winked at Yingyi, asking her to go out.
Yingyi looked at An Qingqian and nodded slightly. Although she felt that it was a little bad, if the young lady liked it, she would not care about so many rules.
After Yingyi left, the room became quiet again. The two looked at each other, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.
"Ahem, Prince, is there something important that brought you here today?" An Qingqian wanted to change the subject.
Of course Shi Qiuwu also understood the meaning of An Qingqian's words. Although he felt disappointed, he did not mention the matter again.
"That's right." Shi Qiuwu's expression returned to normal.
"In the past two days, I have found out some information about the purpose of Prince Dingyuan's return to Beijing and other matters, so I came to find you specially."
"Prince Dingyuan?" When An Qingqian heard Shi Qiuwu mention him, her expression grew a little more serious. These past two days, she had been busy dealing with matters at the Marquis of Lin'an's Mansion and had almost forgotten about this matter.
“Well, Prince Dingyuan did not return to the capital privately, but was specially summoned by the emperor. However, my people have been investigating for a long time, but still cannot find out what the emperor wants to do.
After Prince Dingyuan returned to the capital, he only met with one of Prince Yong's staff members twice, and other than that, there was nothing unusual. "
Shi Qiuwu became serious. He had many experts under him who specialized in collecting information. They could find out almost any information they wanted.
However, this matter has been investigated for a long time, but there is still no clue. This is too wrong.
Shi Qiuwu and King Xian also discussed it and concluded that the Emperor must have something extremely important, otherwise, how could he keep it so secret.
Shi Qiuwu also tried to start from Wu Tiancheng, the son of King Dingyuan. Unfortunately, no matter what method he used, he could not find any clues.
Wu Tiancheng only followed King Dingyuan to the capital with the purpose of finding a woman of noble status to be his wife. Other than that, there was nothing else.
The more this happened, the more uneasy Shi Qiuwu and King Xian felt.
What does the emperor want to do?
Does he know about the secret connection between Prince Dingyuan and Prince Yong?
"The emperor is so mysterious, what does he want to do?" An Qingqian frowned slightly, also very puzzled.
She tried hard to recall what happened in her previous life, but at this time in her previous life, her situation was very bad and most of the people in her yard had been dealt with.
She knew almost nothing about what was happening outside, and had not heard any news about King Dingyuan.
She really didn't know what Prince Dingyuan's purpose was in bringing his son back to the capital.
"We don't know yet, but the emperor and Prince Dingyuan are so mysterious, there must be something very important. Qianqian, we don't know what they are going to do yet, so you must be extremely careful."
Shi Qiuwu looked at An Qingqian worriedly.
Originally, the emperor would not do anything to An Qingqian, but this time when An Zhenyuan returned to Beijing, he almost half-forcefully asked the emperor to issue an edict in the imperial study to allow An Qingqian and Xue Wanxian to divorce.
This made the emperor wary of An Zhenyuan. An Qingqian was An Zhenyuan's only weakness, so the emperor would naturally pay attention to her.
"You mean, the emperor might take action against me?" Seeing Shi Qiuwu's serious expression, An Qingqian asked in confusion.
"No, it's just that I have a vague feeling in my heart. Anyway, you'd better be extra careful." Shi Qiuwu was not sure now, so he could only be cautious.
"Well, by the way, Your Highness, I have one more thing I want to ask you."
Ever since she met Shi Qiuwu and his guards outside Prince Yong's Mansion last time, An Qingqian understood that Shi Qiuwu was not as simple as he seemed.
