Thousand Face Demonic Concubine Chapter 39.1

Chapter 39.1 - The reason for rejecting marriage

Sponsored chapter from Giacomo A for 4 chapters (1/4) ♡♡♡

When Lou Qingwu finally reached the residence, Lou Qufeng had shockingly been waiting for her outside of the residence.

When he saw the speeding horse carriage, he first froze for a moment before seeing the guards with the carriage.

He saw the command plates hanging from their waists as well as the soldiers lining up behind the carriage and his muddy eyes immediately brightened.

He hurried forward and personally went to help Lou Qingwu out of the carriage.

But when he saw a line of bright red on her arm, his face changed immediately and concernedly asked, “Qingwu ah, what happened to you?”

“Father …” Lou Qingwu acted as if she was frightened, her eyes immediately reddened as she shook her head.

Feng Yege’s personal guards appropriately opened their mouths, “Miss Lou met with an assassination attempt but was saved by my master-prince. If the left prime minister doesn’t have any more questions, this subordinate will first go back to report on this mission.”

Lou Qufeng courteously replied with a few more phrases and by the time the guards finally left, his heart had been hit a few times.

When the emperor’s bestowed gifts arrived at the residence before he got there, he originally thought his eldest daughter’s reputation had already been ruined three years ago and hadn’t even considered that she would be able to gain the emperor’s favour.

But she did and furthermore, she stood up for the empress and actually gained the empress’ favour too.

Even more shockingly, she had somehow moved the Night Prince and actually had his guards escort her home.

This clearly demonstrated his attitude towards her.

What type of person was the Night Prince?

In this current Dongyu country, he was afraid that only the empress dowager and the emperor could be higher than the Night Prince.

Even when the empress saw him, she would have to greet him.

If Qingwu could reach upon this high branch, then that really would be flying up to become a phoenix.

Thinking this through, Lou Qufeng’s smile became even genuine and happy, his grin almost reaching his ears.

His attitude towards Lou Qingwu was bordering upon pampering, almost treating her like an ancestor.

But after tonight, Lou Qingwu was already too tired to deal with him, even if her face didn’t show any of her tiredness.

Lou Qufeng immediately worried, “Qingwu, are you tired? It’s all your daddy’s fault for being too worried and forgetting the time. Hurry back to the Leaning Wind Pavilion to rest, daddy will see you tomorrow.”

Lou Qingwu lowered her eyes, her expression as gentle and obedient as a little bunny as her small head was lowered before leaving.

That is, right until she reached the Leaning Wind Pavilion.

Then she would wipe her face completely free of all expressions as she slowly raised her head and lit up the master bedroom’s candles.

She lazily leaned on the window frame as she used her hairpin to poke at the candle flame which immediately jumped up and started blazing higher.

The sound for midnight sounded as Lou Qingwu’s eyes slowly turned around, blew out the candle and immediately, the room turned dark and silent.

At the same time, the window frame moved a bit as a figure silently scuttled in like a panther.

“Master!” Thousand face blinked in the dark, his round eyes extremely bright as he wiped his face to remove the human skin mask.

Lou Qingwu replied, her voice languid, “How’s the investigation going?”

“Can’t find out.” He scratched his head as the Thousand Face Lord’s expression slowly became serious.

“I pretended to be Li Jingsheng’s servant and saw Mu Yunqing during the day. But he went straight to the study to see Li Miao, so I couldn’t find out anything. That Mu Yunqing’s impenetrable, not susceptible to bribes or threats. I even pretended to be his wife, Li family’s eldest miss, Li Xiangluan and went to the justice department to see him, to try to find out anything.

But I was blocked by him. He didn’t see anyone and didn’t people say that their relationship was good? Why did I feel like they were even worse than strangers? I heard that Mu Yunqing had another residence outside of their main residence, and he didn’t even really live at their residence.”

“This, hmm?” Lou Qingwu’s eyes darkened and for some reason, thought of that year’s scandal.

Even though it was just the gossip spread around on the streets, there wouldn’t be smoke without a fire.

TL note：

Lou Qufeng’s so fake.
