Chapter 1600: Chapter 1580: New Information from the Southern Li Royal Family
When the three people finally calmed down, He Wenyu had already started cooking, but Luo Qianqian just preferred to drink water and didn’t step forward to help.
It was meat, and she had a bit of an aversion to the texture of meat now, didn’t want to see it, touch it, or eat it.
"By the way, my third sister came to my residence today and told me some news." The Eldest Princess no longer communicated with the two former Princes. Although they were blood relatives, they had little exchange, and the times they had met could be counted on one hand.
Being able to have met was considered lucky, since even these Princes and Princesses often didn’t know each other as their own siblings.
"What?"
"Father appointed a new State Preceptor," the Eldest Princess furrowed her brows as she shared the news, pursing her lips tightly: "I feel like that person might be up to no good."
"Don’t think too much, as a pregnant woman you need to relax. Worrying is not good for the baby."
Cong Ying’s feelings were complicated. You might accept it if someone older and married said this, but this person was younger than her and spoke with authority...
"I’m talking seriously, can you listen first..." The Eldest Princess looked at Luo Qianqian, feeling speechless. Was this the time to care about the child? Appointing a State Preceptor at this time seemed odd, and no one in the royal family even knew who this new State Preceptor was, wasn’t that too strange?
"Aren’t I listening?" Luo Qianqian looked at the Eldest Princess calmly, shrugged, and said naturally: "But do you think talking so much here is useful? What needs to be unknown remains unknown. We might as well focus on what we do know, others will naturally investigate the rest."
She wasn’t the only one who had heard the news, why should she worry?
The Eldest Princess was briefly speechless, finding no way to refute Luo Qianqian’s statement, which made some sense, so she could only nod in agreement.
"Have you finished your plums? How’s your taste lately?" Luo Qianqian very naturally switched to a role concerned about the child.
The Little Sunflower Expecting Mothers’ Class has begun! Expecting mothers with no appetite? Try a Nine Heavens Pavilion-brand sour plum, sweet and sour, making meals more tasty!
"I still really like sour flavors recently, but I don’t eat as much anymore. I still have quite a bit left, enough for a while. Nowadays, I also like spicy food and even meat..." The Eldest Princess smiled wryly, her taste changing quickly.
Last time, she took a box from here, thought there wasn’t much, but actually needed four people to carry it off the carriage, returning to the mansion, she saw it packed so tightly...
Moreover, the box had a lock, and when she wasn’t eating it, she locked it up, so even if someone wanted to tamper with it, they couldn’t avoid her notice.
"Uh, sour son and spicy daughter, could this be twins?" Luo Qianqian was also full of doubt, caring little for others’ gazes as she shouted: "Xiao Yu, make spicy flavor, the Eldest Princess wants spicy food, by the way Cong Ying, do you eat spicy?"
"I do." Cong Ying immediately nodded, glanced at the Eldest Princess, and said: "I’ll go help Shiliu."
"Be careful not to get hurt or inconvenience Miss Shiliu." The Eldest Princess nodded, for Cong Ying, the most important thing was her hands, whether it was playing chess, painting, sewing, or making medicine, all required her hands.
Cong Ying nodded and naturally went to help.
Luo Qianqian helplessly shook her head, continued to look at the Eldest Princess: "Anything else you want to eat, just say it, though others can’t guarantee, food safety here can be assured."
"Hmm... recently, I don’t like sweet things, everything else is fine, right?"
Huangfu Yihui, Huangfu Yann Yao: "..."
Why is it about food now? The girls’ topics, they couldn’t quite comprehend.
Is the range of topics that wide?
After making the food, Luo Qianqian quietly chewed on snacks, refusing to join these people in ’conspiring together’. She still didn’t mind looking at these things now, but eating them... psychological shadows ran too deep.
After eating, He Wenyu let Cong Ying and the Eldest Princess pack some spicy jerky to eat on the way home.
Once the two left, the courtyard finally became serious.
"What State Preceptor? Thinking about it my first thought is those three monsters turning into State Preceptor, a type that ruins the country and harms the people." Luo Qianqian furrowed her brows, face full of confusion, not understanding the origins of this new State Preceptor or what their intentions were.
"...Are you referring to the sheep, deer, and tiger trio from the Kingdom of Chechi?" He Wenyu immediately understood Luo Qianqian’s message, quickly responding: "But, do you think this State Preceptor is also a monster turned human? Aiming at conquering human territory?"
"...Enough." Luo Qianqian was speechless, then lowered her head, carefully considering this matter.
"Did you forget something?" Yan slightly furrowed his brows, further recognizing these two girls’ whimsical thoughts.
Both looked at Yan, faces full of doubt.
"The Southern Li Royal Family represented by Huangfu is backed by the Fire Cloud Sect, with a powerful sect supporting, why would someone ignorant want to target Southern Li? Wouldn’t that be slapping Fire Cloud Sect in the face? ...But no need for Fire Cloud Sect to hold the State Preceptor position either?" Yan spoke slowly.
Huangfu Yihui and Huangfu Yann Yao both nodded, though they hadn’t entered the Fire Cloud Sect, the sect’s dignity was not to be challenged!
Moreover, if they were still in the royal family, and hadn’t caused so many issues before, they might have already become people of Fire Cloud Sect?
They were the royal family’s most promising members, thought to be most likely to become Fire Cloud Sect’s direct disciples, but did not expect, for some baseless matters, they almost... ha ha.
Thinking this, both their eyes showed a bit of sorrow, but seeing the people in the courtyard, another wave of fortune.
Even though Nine Heavens Pavilion was still in its infancy, lacking standout experts, and hiding a secret, the environment was more harmonious, without deceit and confrontation.
It was their luck, had Yan and Luo Qianqian not helped at the time, they might have met disaster?
"Fire Cloud Sect, could there be some Fiery Cloud Evil God there?" Suddenly, He Wenyu said this line.
Luo Qianqian’s expression momentarily turned odd, wanted to laugh but held back.
At this time, Yann Yao spoke: "How did you know?"
