Chapter 34.2 – I’ll Give Them to You as a Dowry (2)
Just at this moment, a guard came running in a hurry, holding a carrier pigeon in his hand. “Qi Bo, the north has replied.”
Hearing this, Qi Bo put down the brush in his hand, then reached out and took off a bamboo tube from the carrier pigeon’s leg. This seemingly simple letter tube had a secret mechanism inside, and the content could only be taken out using a specific method. Otherwise, the mechanism will destroy everything and even hurt the person.
Taking the letter was something that Qi Bo had always done personally. No one would even take the letter tube from the pigeon’s leg first, just in case of accidents. His eyes burned like torches, and his withered old hands became very nimble at this moment, his fingers almost turning into shadows.
Even though the guard was by his side, he couldn’t even see Qi Bo’s movements clearly, let alone learn his technique.
A few moments later, a paper letter was taken out, and there were only ten plus words written on the small piece of paper.
The guard stood opposite to Qi Bo and couldn’t see what was written on the note, but he saw that Qi Bo’s face suddenly burst with joy, and even the deep wrinkles between his eyebrows were stretched out… It was surely good news this time, right?
Spring passed by in a flash, while summer stayed for a long time. Each stolen day was a day worth cherishing.
Qi Yang acted very obediently in the palace lately. Seeing that the Emperor was busy with government affairs and had no time to look after her, she reverted to her old ways. She frequently went out of the palace, and you wouldn’t be able to see even a shadow of her during rest days. Even on normal days, you would rarely see her walking around the palace.
The Crown Prince had been looking for Qi Yang several times lately, but he had never been able to find her. Today, he finally managed to stop her in front of the palace gates.
As soon as Qi Yang entered the palace gates, she was stopped by the Crown Prince. She had just enjoyed a good time with Lu Qipei today. She jumped out of the carriage while smiling and asked, “Greetings, Royal Brother. Did something happen that you stopped me?”
The Crown Prince was dazzled by the smile on her face, and his originally serious expression became helpless, “There is indeed something, unfortunately I haven’t been able to find you.”
Qi Yang thought that it was just a coincidence that she met the Crown Prince, she didn’t expect that there really was something that he purposely looked for her. After her initial surprise, she quickly took her brother’s arm and smiled ingratiatingly at him, “Royal Brother, don’t be angry with me~… I just wanted to play and couldn’t stay in the palace.”
What wanting to play? She simply fell in love at first sight and all her heart had run away with that youth!
The Crown Prince was peeved, but what else could he do with this spoiled sister of his? Of course, he could only continue spoiling her!
However, there really was a serious thing right now. The Crown Prince took Qi Yang and turned around towards the palace without breaking away from her arm. As he walked, he asked her, “You keep running around outside lately. Have you looked at your princess’s mansion? How is the renovation going?

Qi Yang had already gone to see it, bringing Lu Qipei with her to check it out more than once. By the way, even the original blueprints had been slightly changed. After all, it will be their home in the future, so it had to be arranged properly.
Qi Yang immediately told the Crown Prince about the renovation progress. She was also a keen person, so she knew that the Crown Prince wouldn’t have waited for her in front of the palace gates just to gossip.
So after she finished answering, she asked the Crown Prince, “Royal Brother, what’s the matter? Did something happen?”
The Crown Prince’s brow furrowed and loosened again. His eyes glanced around – seeing the palace maids following them consciously kept their distance a few steps behind, he finally lowered his voice and said, “We received a letter of credence1 a few days ago. The northern barbarians have finally established a country, called the Rong State. Their envoys will come to the capital after a while. You should go to Xuanshi Hall for a walk one of these days.”
Qi Yang’s mind quickly turned after hearing this. First, she thought of the newly established Rong State in the north. She remembered when the people from Hanlin Academy talked about the northern barbarians when she went on an outing last time. She didn’t expect the norther barbarians to establish a country so fast.
The war in the northern border that made everyone anxious did not happen, and this could barely be considered a good thing. But when she thought about the envoys coming to the capital, she immediately understood the Crown Prince’s reminder.
Marriage between two countries was a common occurrence, especially now that the northern barbarian’s newly established country needed to be pacified. Maybe the Rong State’s envoys would bring up the matter of marriage when they come to the capital this time.
She was the only princess in the palace who was of appropriate age and had yet to marry. The Crown Prince was reminding her get married as soon as possible!
Qi Yang immediately took in a breath of cold air when she figured it out, and her face turned a little ugly. “Thank you for reminding me, Royal Brother. I will go later.”
Seeing her ugly complexion, the Crown Prince patted her head to soothe her and said, “Don’t worry, Royal Father have always doted on you; he will make arrangements for you. You better show your face in front of him more.”
Qi Yang nodded, but her face still did not look very good, and her delicate eyebrows were still furrowed. The Crown Prince thought that she was too nervous because this was the first time she experienced something like this. But Qi Yang couldn’t believe in the Emperor’s illusory favor.
Besides this, Qi Yang was also looking back on her past life. She knew about the important event where the northern barbarians established a country – she couldn’t remember what year it was, but there was no such thing as a marriage back then.
The two countries had always had a bad relationship, and after the Rong State was established, there had been a lot of fights breaking out in the northern border. It was useless to establish relationships, and the other party didn’t even bother to at least try on the surface!
Qi Yang became a little relieved when she came to that thought, but she forgot that the Crown Prince wouldn’t have warned her for no reason.
