CH 55.1
Chapter 55.1 – Who Are You? (1)
Maybe due to the shock she received in the competition field that day, Qi Yang had not been able to rest well lately, and she was feeling anxious for no reason.
The sun was shining lazily on her this noon, making her feel sleepy.
Because she lacked sleep the past few days, Qi Yang leaned against the soft couch by the window and accidentally fell asleep.
Afternoon naps usually don’t last long, but this time Qi Yang slept for a long time. When the maid in the palace saw her, she only covered her with a thin blanket and didn’t dare to disturb her. So Qi Yang slept until the sun went down, but when she woke up, she was sweating profusely and looked to be in a panic.
Seeing this, Zhi Ting hurried went to her side and took out a handkerchief to wipe Qi Yang’s sweat. She asked, “Your Highness, what’s wrong?”
Her hasty shout seemed to finally brought Qi Yang back to her senses. She stared at Zhi Ting for a while, then turned to look at the familiar palace. After a long while, she finally let out a deep breath. Waving her hand, she took the handkerchief from Zhi Ting and wiped the cold sweat on her face. “It’s nothing.”
Zhi Ting looked worriedly at Qi Yang, but didn’t dare to say anything else and retreated to the side.
Qi Yang had just had a nightmare. In the dream, it seemed as if she had returned to her previous life. She was alone in her huge, but cold and desolate princess’s mansion. But when she looked around in the dream, she saw the small peach blossom forest in the distance.
She suddenly realized that she wasn’t in the princess’s mansion she had lived in for many years in her previous life; she was in the new princess’s mansion that she and Lu Qipei had designed and renovated together in this life!
But since the princess’s mansion was here, then where was the person who should be with her there? Qi Yang’s heart was suddenly stricken with panic as she ran around the princess’s mansion to find her. She searched the whole mansion, but only saw the back of a person.
In her dream, she chased after her for a long time, but she could never catch up with her. When she finally became too tired from the chase, she could only watch that back figure go farther and farther away, until it finally disappeared. She was the only one left alone in the huge princess’s mansion.
Qi Yang finally woke up at this time, and she was temporarily in such a panic that she lost all sense of time.
It wasn’t until Zhi Ting called her that she gradually felt relieved, as she saw Zhi Ting’s still young face and the familiar palace. But somehow, Qi Yang still felt flustered when she recalled the dream, always feeling as if there was something out of her grasp.
Of course she couldn’t grasp it, because there were too many things that had gone off-track in this life. Lu Qicheng’s early death need not be mentioned, because she had her own hand in it, but the difference with what happened to the Rong State envoys really made her realize that things had changed.
In her previous life, the envoys had never come. But now, not only did they come, such a big incident also happened in the capital. Were these changes all brought on by her rebirth!?
There was also the matter with how Xie Hongyi’s face looked similar to the Lu siblings’, and also that powerful prime minister Xie Yuan far away in Rong State. What roles would they all play? How would they affect her and Lu Qipei’s future?
Qi Yang had been thinking of a lot of things lately, and that dream was a reflection of her worries…
A while later, Qi Yang sat up on her couch. She wiped the cold sweat off her forehead and tidied up her appearance. When the blanket was taken off, her slightly pale face from the nightmare had gradually returned to normal.
Zhi Ting brought a cup of herbal tea at just the right time. Qi Yang took the tea and drank all of it. The slightly cold liquid went down her mouth into her stomach, and seemed to have relieved her burning anxiety.
Qi Yang immediately asked, “What time is it?”
Zhi Ting took the empty tea cup and replied, “It’s almost six. Would you like to eat dinner, Your Highness?”
Qi Yang waved her hand and thought for a moment, then simply said, “Get changed, we’re going to the Eastern Palace!”
Of course, Qi Yang didn’t rush to Eastern Palace during dinner so she could freeload a meal from the Crown Prince. Her influence outside the palace was still weak, and her information network wasn’t as good as the Crown Prince’s. Also, they had a good relationship anyway, so Qi Yang didn’t need to look too far elsewhere.
In the Eastern Palace, the Crown Prince had just finished handling his affairs for the day. When he learned that Qi Yang was coming, he didn’t let her wait for long.
When the two met, they both found that the other party’s face didn’t look very good. Qi Yang had been haunted by the terrible nightmare and couldn’t sleep well for the past few days, while the Crown Prince’s mind was occupied by the crazy horse case and the missing Rong State envoys.
The Crown Prince looked at his sister’s haggard look and smiled wryly, “Is Royal Sister still in shock from what happened at the competition ground that day?”
When Qi Yang saw Lu Qipei riding her horse to hit the horse that went crazy that day, she almost went mad with worry. Later on, she rushed to hug her and was seen by everyone. Due to the special circumstance, no one had said anything much, but Lu Qipei’s importance to her was clear to everyone. The Crown Prince also admired Lu Qipei’s bravery at that time, it was just a pity that Xie Hongyi’s life still ended up beyond saving.
Qi Yang didn’t deny it. She sighed and said, “I was really scared that day, but Ah Pei is fine, so I should have been relieved. But for some reason, I always feel uneasy lately, so I’ve come to ask Royal Brother about the situation.”
The Crown Prince thought that she was just asking about Lu Qipei, so he said, “Don’t worry, Royal Sister. Your darling is staying well at the Court of Judicial Review. The buildings are solidly built and guarded by soldiers, so nothing will go wrong.”
Those words were a bit teasing, but Qi Yang did not look shy when she heard it. Instead, she said, “Thank you for telling me, Royal Brother. But what I wanted to ask was not about Ah Pei, but about the crazy horse case and the Rong State envoys. How has the investigation gone?”
