    Chapter 6: Abnormality

    Shen Qi felt that Zhong Zhonghua was very abnormal, and the orders he gave her became increasingly abnormal.

    For example, he ordered her not to get up until midnight, to eat meat and soup for breakfast, and not to wear the narrow sleeves and trousers that were convenient for her before. Instead, he asked her to wear a soft and fragrant cloud gauze that she had never worn before. Even her hair could no longer be tied into a bunch with a tie as before, but should be combed into a bun and tied with the jewelry he sent.

    Yes, rewards have been continuously sent to Fanghua Garden in the past few days. Jewelry, silk and satin, rouge and gouache, things that Shen Qi has never seen before, or that she has only seen from Su Lianxue, Zhonghua has all rewarded her.And letting her stay in Fanghua Garden was also Zhonghua’s order.

    Shen Qi didn’t understand what Zhong Hua was going to do. She even had nightmares that Zhong Hua suddenly treated her like this because the marriage was ahead of schedule. He wanted to change her identity in advance and marry that notorious man from the North instead of Su Lianxue.

    Shen Qi was covered in cold sweat when she woke up from the nightmare. In the next few days, she became even more anxious.Every time she went to find Zhong Hua, Zhong Hua would just tell her with dark eyes: “This is an order.”

    In the evening, Shen Qi was still extremely unaccustomed to letting Ling Jiao and Lian Xiang take care of her after bathing, and was getting ready to go to bed worriedly. Leng Xing came and knocked on the door, with a very good look on her face. After hesitating for a long time, she said, “Shen Qi, go see the prince.”

    When Shen Qi heard this, his heart skipped a beat. He always felt that what was supposed to come would eventually come, but he didn’t know what the disaster was about to be.

    “Slave, help the girl dress up?” Lingjiao and Lianxiang were particularly enthusiastic.

    “No need.” Shen Qi didn’t bother to dress up at all, and put on her clothes worriedly. Even the laces were tied wrong, so Ling Jiao tied them again for her.

    Shen Qi followed Leng Xing into Suyuan Pavilion. The lights were on and the door was unlocked.Leng Xing stopped at the door and motioned for Shen Qi to go in.

    Shen Qi opened the door anxiously and tentatively called: “Your Majesty.”

    No one answered her.However, Shen Qi freely studied martial arts and her hearing was naturally sharp. She heard the faint sound of water and followed the sound.

    “Prince?” Shen Qi opened the bead curtain, and Zhong Hua was not in the bath.Shen Qi felt something was wrong. He squatted down and tested the water temperature with his hands, and found that the water was cold.

    The vigilance of the dead soldier made Shen Qi use the dagger hidden in her sleeve in an instant. She walked lightly, her brows slightly raised, her eyes like a cat hunting in the dark, and she followed the wet footprints on the ground step by step.

    “Qiqi…” Suddenly someone shouted, Shen Qi turned around quickly, very fast, and when he turned around, the dagger in his hand was already pressed against the man’s throat.

    And the person who suddenly appeared was none other than King Xuan Zhonghua.

    “Your Majesty…” Shen Qi was frightened, but fortunately she was good at it. She shot and closed quickly, and stopped the momentum of the sword in time, so that it did not scratch Shen Chonghua’s neck.

    Zhong Zhonghua’s hair was not tied up, and his black hair was hanging down. The black hair was soaked by someone and wet his body-covering clothes, vaguely outlining the outline of his figure.The loose skirt even revealed his long and narrow collarbones, and his chest with drops of water falling down.

    He was angry and did not dare to look. He put away his sword, lowered his head, and with a heavy body, he pretended to kneel down to Zhong Zhonghua and said, “My lord, forgive me!”

    However, Zhong Zhonghua held her hands and prevented him from kneeling down. Instead, he called her in a tone that Shen Qi had never heard before: “Qiqi…”

    He also asked her: “Qiqi… you… why did you come…”
