Chapter 397 The Scumbag Woman Reborn, the Regent Prince Refuses to Be a Sucker 15
Yunqing also placed the thumb ring by her pillow. Every night, she dreamt of her and Helian Yin being a loving couple, making Jiang Yunyan so angry that she vomited blood, which made her feel happy.
However, when she woke up in the morning, she never thought of showing off Helian Yin's ring to Jiang Yunyan.
Instead, she excitedly prepared to go to the Regent's Palace, determined to press her advantage and completely captivate Helian Yin's heart, leaving him utterly infatuated.
Chunhua said with concern, "Miss, although you are engaged to the Regent, people will still gossip about you if you keep going to the Regent's mansion like this."
In particular, judging from the young lady's attitude, she probably wants to go there every day.
Yun Qing thought for a moment, "You're right!"
Then she called out loudly, "Qi Ying."
Qi Ying appeared before her in a flash. "What are your orders, Your Highness?"
"Take me over the wall! Let's sneak into the Prince's mansion."
Qi Ying: ...That works too.
Qi Yingzhen then led Yun Qing over the wall and flew into the Prince's mansion.
"Your Highness can have the kitchen prepare whatever you wish to eat. In the palace, Your Highness need not worry too much. The servants are all very well-mannered and know what to say and what not to say."
Yun Qing: !!!
That's really good!
"Your Highness should be here in a while..."
Qi Ying wanted to say that the prince should be back soon, but Yun Qing had already run far away, and still remembered to call out, "Qi Ying, where is the kitchen?"
Qi Ying: ? ? ?
Your Highness, do you still remember what you came here for?
She quickly followed after her, saying, "Your Highness, the kitchen is a mess. Just tell me what you'd like to eat."
Helian Yin left court late today. By the time he returned, Yun Qing had already tasted all the new pastries from the kitchen, strolled around the main courtyard, and then sat under a tree carving little figures.
As Helian Yin entered the courtyard, she ran over with the carving knife in her hand.
When Qi Shi saw the knife coming towards the prince, he instinctively pressed down on the hilt of his sword. The longsword was almost drawn, but Helian Yin used his folding fan to push it back.
He then came to his senses. Why was the princess in the palace?
That brat Qi Ying didn't even give me a heads-up. If he had accidentally hurt the princess, wouldn't he have been punished again?
Yun Qing stopped in front of Helian Yin, glanced at the folding fan in his hand, and said, "Didn't you like it quite a bit?"
Helian Yin did not deny it, "Didn't you say we were a good match?"
Yun Qing looked him over and nodded, saying, "They really are a good match. He doesn't look so fierce anymore."
Helian Yin: ...So you gave me the folding fan because you thought I looked too fierce?
When he turned to look at Qi Shi, I asked, "Am I fierce?"
Qi looked up at the sky and said, "The princess was so scared of marrying you that she tried to commit suicide. What do you think?"
Helian Yin: ...
He opened his fan, angrily fanned himself twice, then quietly took a step back, his voice gentle as he asked, "Why have you come to the Prince's residence?"
Yun Qing didn't react strangely at all, and even said excitedly, "I came to see you! Qi Ying helped me climb over the wall to get in!"
"I originally wanted to learn light-body skills so I could climb over walls by myself in the future, but Qi Ying said it wouldn't be so quick to learn."
Seeing her keen interest, Helian Yin said, "Then let me teach you a set of footwork first."
Yun Qing casually tossed the carving knife and wood carving to Qi Shi beside her, then grabbed his sleeve and asked excitedly, "If I learn it, will I be able to 'whoosh whoosh whoosh'?"
"It can't go 'whoosh whoosh,' but it can go 'swish swish swish.'"
Yun Qing asked hesitantly, "Does 'swish swish swish' mean flying a little slower?"
Helian Yin gently patted her forehead and chuckled, "What are you thinking about? You think you can fly just because you've learned a few footwork steps?"
Yun Qing gave a disappointed "Oh," and asked, "Then how do I make it 'swish swish swish'?"
Helian Yin explained, "Although it can't fly, it can dodge quickly."
Yun Qing's interest was piqued again. Being quick to dodge was fine too! When she finally got into a fight with Jiang Yunyan, wouldn't she beat her to a pulp?
So Yun Qing, who originally planned to seduce Helian Yin, completely forgot about winning his heart. Instead, she spent the whole day learning martial arts from him and was so tired that she didn't want to move at all. In the end, Helian Yin had to climb over the wall to send her back.
Jiang Yunyan had been waiting for Yun Qing to overestimate himself and get humiliated by Helian Yin, then come looking for trouble in a fit of rage. But she waited a day, two days, three days, and still nothing...
She was starting to feel uncertain as she waited.
Fortunately, after inquiring, Biyue learned that the Regent's Palace had stopped sending things to the Marquis's residence. It seemed that Helian Yin was tired of Jiang Yunqing and was no longer willing to pretend to care about her.
All she wants now is to recover from her leg injury quickly so she can go to Helian Yin and confess her feelings, making him understand her thoughts.
Yun Qing, on the other hand, would sneak off to the Regent's Palace every day to learn footwork, palm techniques, and fist techniques from Helian Yin...
She was exhausted every day, and when she got home she would fall asleep immediately. She had no energy to cause trouble for Jiang Yunyan.
Helian Yin said she was quite talented, and Yun Qing did indeed make considerable progress.
Although she can't dodge with lightning speed anymore, she's pretty fast now, and her hits are quite accurate and hurt quite a bit.
Her biggest goal now is to be able to defeat Helian Yin with her own abilities.
Although it seems a bit far-fetched now, she enjoys it immensely and can't resist taking advantage of any opportunity to launch a sneak attack.
Oh, and there's another goal: to win Helian Yin's heart. She'll try to seduce him whenever she feels like it.
These past two days, His Majesty has been too ill to get out of bed and is completely unable to handle affairs of state. The princes are restless and eager to make their move, and Helian Yin, the powerful regent, is busier than usual.
A stack of memorials lay on the stone table under the tree. Helian Yin sat there, watching Yun Qing practice martial arts while reading the memorials.
Seeing that his brows were furrowing more and more, his eyes were full of anger, and he was about to throw the memorial, Yun Qing quietly slipped behind him and punched him in the back of the head.
Helian Yin dodged by slightly tilting his head, then raised his hand, grasped her fist, and pulled her over.
Yun Qing nestled into his arms, playfully punching his chest with her little fists, making loud thuds, and said in a coquettish voice, "You're so naughty~"
Helian Yin, who was originally angry, couldn't help but laugh. He grabbed her fist and shook it, "Is this how much you love me? You want to beat me until I vomit blood, right?"
Yun Qing's eyes immediately welled up with tears, and she said with a wronged expression, "Even if Your Highness doesn't like me, you don't have to wrong me like this. I was just trying to make you happy, but you insist on twisting my good intentions like this. You...you're so annoying!"
After she finished speaking, she pushed Helian Yin while crying and ran away faster than a rabbit.
Helian Yin paused for a moment before slowly lowering his outstretched hand, muttering to himself, "Who says I don't like it?"
After Yun Qing ran away, she rubbed her sore arms and asked, "Qi Ying, when are we going to have dinner? I get hungry so quickly from practicing martial arts!"
Qi Ying suddenly appeared, handing her a paper bag of candied fruit, "Why didn't Your Highness ask about the Prince just now?"
Yun Qing happily opened the paper package and said, "I just beat him up. What if he's petty and makes me go hungry?"
Qi Ying couldn't help but laugh and said, "When has His Highness ever let you go hungry? These candied fruits were also prepared at His Highness's request."
"Your Highness, please eat a few less. When you return, the Prince will have someone prepare a meal."
Yun Qing chewed on the candied fruit and thought for a moment, then muttered, "Actually, Helian Yin is a pretty good person."
Qi Ying's smile widened, making her look nothing like a cold-blooded bodyguard.
When he saw Qi Shi passing by, he raised an eyebrow at him and said, "Brother, did you learn something?"
Qi Shi glanced at her coldly, expressionless, and said, "Get lost!"
Then he said defiantly, "Your Highness, the Prince only acts like a good person in front of you; he's quite ruthless to others."
Yun Qing blinked, her mind instantly clearing. "I almost forgot he was a tyrannical and cruel regent. So he's just pretending to be a good person in front of me?"
"Speak! What is his purpose?"
Qi Shi: !!!
Qi Ying: ...
Before Qi Shi could reply, Yun Qing stormed back, intending to ask Helian Yin herself.
Qi Shi looked at Qi Ying pleadingly, "Sister, you're my own sister, please save me..."
"I just wanted to say that the prince has a special relationship with the princess. Why would the princess think that way?"
Qi Ying sighed helplessly, "Brother, you choose a good feng shui spot, and I'll dig the pit for you."
Qi Shi: ...
