The Queen Doesn't Want to Die
Chapter 169
Pei Shi Liang furrowed his brows as he still did not recall if he had never known or met the guest who had suddenly visited him. He felt he did not know her at all.
"Good morning Crown Prince Shixian." Pei Shi Liang said as he saw Xian Zi Xuan sitting quietly in the main hall of his pavilion. He also sat in the chair in front of him.
"Good morning Liang'er." Xian Zi Xuan smiled. He replied very casually which made Pei Shi Liang even more surprised to hear Xian Zi Xuan's familiar call towards him.
"Sorry Crown Prince Shixian, we are not close to each other. So please don't call me familiar or someone else will misunderstand us." Pei Shi Liang said firmly.
"Liang'er, please don't say that or my heart will feel pain. It doesn't matter if we weren't close in the past. But in the future we'll be close, so why think about what people think?"
"But..."
"I came to visit early in the morning and had not had time to go to breakfast. As a good host wouldn't Liang'er invite me over for breakfast together? Isn't Liang'er also breakfast?" Xian Zi Xuan immediately cut off Pei Shi Liang's remark.
"Huh... Xing Xi, prepare some extra food for Crown Prince Shixian." Pei Shi Liang deliberately suppressed his tone as he said the word Food Additive and glanced at Xian Zi Xuan sharply. Yet Xian Zi Xuan still maintained his vexing smile.
After Xing Xi came out to prepare the food, Xian Zi Xuan did not speak anymore, nor did Pei Shi Liang whose mood was upset. He had never been close to any man other than Pei Zhang Xi. He was also not very fond of gathering with other princesses as well as young misses and young masters. To spend time with them is futile. He preferred to practice martial arts and also trained in swordsmanship.
However, Xian Zi Xuan who looked at the Pei Shi Liang residence actually felt even more interested in him again. He approached Pei Shi Liang because he felt that the girl was different from the princess and young lady he had met. With his handsome face, he will always be the center of attention and is often disturbed by them if he does not show if he is not interested and firmly rejects all those who approach him. The girls, who were clearly seen if they were troublesome spoiled girls. Girls with this type usually do not enter will and will make him dizzy.
So when he saw a different Pei Shi Liang, he started to get curious and asked his men to look for information about him. However after he approached it himself, Pei Shi Liang was more interesting than the information he got. He begins to realize that he has fallen in love with her and will get her heart as soon as possible.
"Stop looking like that. Does Crown Prince Shixian not feel that it is disrespectful?" Pei Shi Liang pursed his lips. He felt uncomfortable to be noticed in such a way by men who were foreign to him. Yet again Xian Zi Xuan still smiled even more irritatingly than before. Which makes him even more upset.
"What harm? I like you." Xian Zi Xuan changed his position. Talking calmly like what he said was a very common thing spoken by a young man in front of a single girl.
"You!" Pei Shi Liang choked on his words and did not know what to say to this so shameless young man.
Xing Xi who had just returned after doing her duty was surprised to see Pei Shi Liang's face that looked extremely angry whereas Xian Zi Xuan's face looked extremely calm without any ripples.
It wasn't just Xing Xi who was shocked. Bei Yin was even more surprised to find that the prince he had been following since young had changed a lot in just the blink of an eye. He had never seen such a shameless Xian Zi Xuan. He began to suspect that the handsome man who was sitting casually and his eyes seemed to be filled with the face of Pei Shi Liang who looked annoyed was not his real master and was someone who had disguised himself. But his face is still the same. And even his nature was still as normal as ever before his master had come and met the eighth Princess whom he had met twice.
Bei Yin glanced at Xian Zi Xuan with waspasa as she suddenly thought that her master might have been possessed by another spirit forcefully replacing her cold master.
"Ehem... Princess, Your Highness Crown Prince Shixian, the food is ready." Xing Xi cleared her throat to dilute the strange-looking situation.
"Huf... Alright Your Highness Crown Prince Shixian. I'd assume everything that happened here never happened. So please start keeping your attitude from now on." Pei Shi Liang looked at Xian Zi Xuan threateningly.
"alright. In accordance with Liang'er's wishes." Xian Zi Xuan replied casually. Pei Shi Liang nearly vomited blood upon realizing what he said politely to warn Xian Zi Xuan was not getting the results he expected. Xian Zi Xuan didn't seem to listen to his warning.
Pei Shi Liang took a deep breath once more to temper his anger before he stood up and led Xian Zi Xuan to go to the side hall to begin their breakfast.

Queen Zhu's pretty face distorted as she heard what happened at Lu Jing Yu's place from the servant aunt she had sent. He had seen how Pei Zhang Xi was so protective of Lu Jing Yu with his own eyes. However he did not expect that Pei Zhang Xi would choose to fight him blatantly just for the sake of a woman like Lu Jing Yu who in his eyes had nothing but good luck.
"His Majesty the Queen. Please save my servant. Slaves have been sold as slaves since slaves were very young. And now the servant has nothing more in this world to turn to. If the servant is fired from the work of the servant, the servant will be sold as a dirty laborer. Perhaps no one will even accept a servant anywhere. Please save His Majesty's servant." The servant aunt knelt in front of queen Zhu. He is old and there will be none you hire him because he no longer has the energy. If he had to leave the palace, he would die right away out there.
Queen Zhu smiled glanced at the servant aunt who did look old. He had been in the palace even before he entered the palace.
"Just calm. Because you are one of my loyal subordinates. You have been in this palace for a long time and have shown your loyalty. For that I will give you a place worthy of you." Said Queen Zhu with a smile. But when the maid raised her face and saw the smile on Queen Zhu's face, she somehow felt that the smile was harmful. A scary smile.
"His Majesty the Queen..." The servant's aunt thought she had seen wrongly and reviewed her smile again and asked.
"You just calm down. Aunt Wan, take Aunt Ruo to her room and help pack. Show me how I treat a loyal subordinate." Queen Zhu immediately changed her smile. He smiled softly filled with warmth.
"Your Majesty the Queen." After the two servant aunts left, Queen Zhu withdrew her smile. Replacing it with an emotionless scary face as he threw the cup he had just worn onto the floor hard to shatter into pieces.
