During the remaining days of the journey, there was no going on on the boat and it was extremely quiet.
When Shen Xingwan occasionally went out for a walk, he would meet the fourth prince.
The two of them would say a few words politely and maintain an appropriate distance from beginning to end, and the fourth prince also behaved very gracefully.
Shen Ruoyan looked at Lu Yu who was sitting on the bow of the boat fishing, and couldn't help but praise, "This fourth prince has quite a royal demeanor. He comes across as dignified and graceful, and is not annoying at all."
Shen Xingwan glanced at Yu, who was dressed in white as snow, and said, "Okay, after getting off this boat, it has nothing to do with us."
If the fourth prince showed too much enthusiasm, Shen Xing would have stayed away long ago.
Fortunately, after the soup and flowers that day, the fourth prince did nothing, so Shen Xingwan didn't think much about it.
"We'll be in Shengjing in the afternoon!" Shen Ruoyan was a little excited. This was her first time in Beijing.
Shen Xingwan looked at the river, looking forward to it in his heart.
Shen Ruoyan tugged at her sleeves, lowered her voice and said with a gossipy face, "Look over there."
Shen Xingwan looked over and saw Yan Ling, who was dressed in purple and had a picturesque appearance, entering Princess Qinghe's room holding his expensive bone fan.
Shen Ruoyan clicked her tongue and sighed, "It's great to be a princess..."
When Yan Ling entered, Princess Qinghe was sitting by the window reading a book, her head lowered and her beautiful profile revealed.
Yan Ling looked at her for a while, then saluted smoothly, "I've met the princess."
Princess Qinghe did not embarrass him this time. She put down the book in her hand and said, "Get up."
The tone was light, no longer as intimate as before.
Yan Ling looked at Princess Qinghe drinking tea elegantly and felt a little embarrassed. Qinghe had always treated him warmly in the past.
Yan Ling's eyes drifted out the window, she was about to arrive in Shengjing.
In Shengjing, where there are many noble people, he is nothing without Princess Qinghe.
This head must be kept low.
Because Princess Qinghe was obviously dissatisfied and neglected towards him at the banquet that night.
The food and drink expenses sent to him in the past few days were very perfunctory, and the prices were so low that Yan Ling came to his senses quickly. It was him who had drifted away.
His beauty is worthless in front of power. When no one buys it, it can even be a disaster.
That group of male-female young men often teased him secretly and openly.
Princess Qinghe finished the drink slowly, and when she raised her eyes, she found that Yan Ling was still there. Princess Qinghe rested her face with her hands and said with a chuckle, "Why are you still here? What's the matter?"
Yan Ling looked at Princess Qinghe with gentle eyes, "Are you still angry?"
Princess Qinghe looked at him with a half-smile but said nothing.
Yan Ling lowered her eyes, her eyelashes trembling, and her whole person looked a bit fragile.
Once a person who is usually arrogant shows his vulnerable side, the contrast is particularly alluring.
"I was wrong..." Yan Ling whispered.
Princess Qinghe's eyes stayed on his face, and she said in a flirtatious tone, "What's wrong?"
Yan Ling walked over and looked at her aggrievedly, "Everything is wrong."
Princess Qinghe stood up and looked up at him, "Really? You're not lying to me."
Yan Ling smiled seductively, lowered her head and hugged Princess Qinghe.
Wait until the boat docks.
When everyone packed up their things and came out, they couldn't wait to get off the boat.
Yan Ling walked over slowly in full view of everyone.
There are faint teeth marks on the cheeks and neck.
Secret laughter immediately rang out from all around, and meaningful eyes fell on him.
Yan Ling stood expressionless, her heart filled with rage and she wanted to gouge out these people's eyes.
One day, he will make these people pay the price.
A county prince who was not jealous of men and women approached him, put his hand on his shoulder, and whispered in his ear ambiguously, "If one day Qinghe gets tired of playing and doesn't want you anymore, come to me and I will definitely love you." "
Yan Ling wanted to stab him to death right now, but he knew he couldn't.
Even if he was really killed, Princess Qinghe wouldn't be able to protect him.
Yan Ling could only hold the fan tightly in her hand and tighten her mouth.
"It seems that whether men or women serve others with sex, it is not a long-term solution after all." Shen Ruoyan said in a leisurely tone.
Yan Ling seemed to sense something and raised her head to look in Shen Xingwan's direction.
He moved his shoulders to throw away the prince's hand and went straight to Shen Xingwan.
Shen Xingwan looked at him coldly.
Just as Lu Yu was about to come out to stop him, Shen Ruoyan had already taken a step forward and said, "Master, please stay."
Yan Ling ignored Shen Ruoyan and continued to approach Shen Xingwan.
The eyes of everyone on the boat were attracted.
Shen Xingwan sneered. Yan Ling had such a reputation and insisted on getting close to her. This was trying to drag her into trouble. If something were to spread, her reputation would be ruined.
With a load of unclear rumors about her being the princess's male favorite, her reputation was almost ruined, but it was a good idea.
When Yan Ling was still three steps away from Shen Xingwan, a white-feathered arrow came through the air and shot straight at Yan Ling.
Yan Ling was forced to take a few steps back, and the arrow finally landed at his feet.
Everyone turned around in shock.
On the shore, the prince of Zhennan, Fu Jingchao, who was rumored to be disabled, was sitting in a wheelchair dressed in black, looking at them expressionlessly.
The maid in red behind him was holding a bow and arrow pointed at Yan Ling.
Fu Jingchao said coldly, "Shoot!"
An arrow shot through the air, and Yan Ling dodged it nimbly, but in the end the arrow still scratched Yan Ling's cheek.
It left a wound on his face.
Hong Ling took out three more arrows and put them on her bow, pointing them at Yan Ling.
A clear warning.
There was a palpitation in the boat, and I looked at Shen Xingwan who was calm.
Thinking of what she said that night, "Fu Jingchao is disabled, not dead!"
I felt scared for a while, but fortunately they didn't mess around that night, otherwise Fu Jingchao wouldn't have given them anything good with his attitude.
Yan Ling's face was extremely ugly.
At this point, he no longer wanted to take the route of deliberately approaching Shen Xingwan to win her favor.
So I was going to disgust her before disembarking and ruin her reputation.
I didn't expect Fu Jingchao to come so quickly and attack so harshly.
The atmosphere was tense when Princess Qinghe came out and said loudly, "Your Majesty, please show mercy!"
Yan Ling breathed a sigh of relief.
Fu Jingchao signaled Hongling to put down his bow and arrow.
The princess spoke, and everyone thought that the matter was over.
An arrow quickly hit Yan Ling's shoulder with overwhelming force.
Yan Ling groaned in pain, held her shoulders and staggered a few times.
Princess Qinghe looked at Fu Jingchao holding a bow and arrow with a bad expression.
Fu Jingchao looked at him and her without fear, "Qinghe, take care of your dog!"
Princess Qinghe weighed it again and again, but she did not dare to confront Fu Jingchao. If this matter got serious, she would be at fault in the final analysis.
Fu Jingchao glanced at Yan Ling with disgust, "Next time you dare to approach her, I will destroy your legs!"
Yan Ling lowered his head and said something.
Fu Jingchao looked at Shen Xingwan aside and waved to her, with a smile in his eyes.
