Chapter 610: Unreasonable Harassment

Lin Yingmin, now Li Tingzhao, approached with a smile, “Miss Qingzhi, long time no see.”

The way he looked at Chu Qingzhi was filled with joy, his eyes twinkling like crushed stars.

Chu Qingzhi looked at the handsome man in front of her, dressed in the casual attire of a prince. His eyes were as black as ink jade, just like when she first met him, “You…”

Li Tingzhao hurriedly said, “Nothing, I’m still the same as I was at the beginning.”

Chu Qingzhi kept her distance. “I still have something on. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave first.”

Li Tingzhao, having finally encountered Chu Qingzhi, didn’t want to let her go so easily, “Can we have dinner together? You can go about your business first, and I’ll come to pick you up in the evening.”

Chu Qingzhi apologetically said, “I’m sorry, I really don’t have time.”

Li Tingzhao was visibly disappointed. His gaze at Chu Qingzhi lost its luster as if stars had fallen, “Then, I won’t bother you anymore.”

Chu Qingzhi nodded coldly and left quickly with the two little ones.

The eunuch following Li Tingzhao said, “Your Highness, if you like this girl, you could just ask the emperor to issue a decree, why be so heartbroken?”

Li Tingzhao watched Chu Qingzhi’s fading figure in the crowd, full of longing, “She’s already engaged to the National General. Who could compete with him?”

The eunuch opened his mouth to speak but remained silent, regretting his words. Fortunately, the general wasn’t here, or he would have been in trouble.

Meanwhile, Chu Xuyuan turned to ask, “Fifth Sister, who is he?”

“He is a prince who was lost among the common people by the previous emperor but seems to have been recognized and brought back.”

“Is that possible?”

“Yes, as long as one can prove their identity and the emperor believes them.”

“I see.”

Suddenly, a hurried voice called from behind them, “Wait!”

The three of them stopped and turned around.

The person approaching was unfamiliar to Chu Qingzhi and Chu Xuyuan, only

Chu Xuiao recognized him, “Luo Jisheng, what are you doing here?”

Yan Jingkui, who didn’t dare to face Chu Qingzhi, hid beside a stall and didn’t come forward.

Luo Jisheng approached Chu Qingzhi, earnestly saying, “Miss Qingzhi, 1 apologize to you and your brothers. 1 was so eager to win that 1 did the wrong thing. I’m sorry.”

Now, he just wanted to minimize the seriousness of this matter, even at the cost of his dignity, as long as he could calm things down.

Chu Qingzhi, seeing his sincere attitude, didn’t reprimand him further, “Make better choices in the future.”

Luo Jisheng was relieved and promised, “I’ll take good care of the matter at the orphanage.”

“I hope so.”

In the residence of Prince Zhao.

The clear sound of a wooden fish echoed in the mansion, accompanied by the subtle fragrance of sandalwood, creating a peaceful atmosphere.

A young nun respectfully handed several papers to Consort Xin, “Your

Highness, I’ve found the information you wanted.”

Consort Xin opened her eyes, set aside the wooden fish, and took the papers, reading them carefully, “Who is this Chu Qingzhi?”

The nun replied softly, “The last page has information about Chu Qingzhi.”

Consort Xin flipped to the last page, and after reading, she said, “A girl from a farming family being engaged to a general is already a great fortune.”

She was slightly annoyed, “Having already been engaged, she should behave herself. Why did she get close to my son?”

Most importantly, Tingzhao was so infatuated with her that he did not even look at other women.

This couldn’t continue.

Consort Xin shouted in the direction of the door, “Someone!”

Nanny Tian entered the room, “Your Highness.”

Consort Xin ordered, “Go and call Chu Qingzhi over.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Chu Qingzhi was busy processing crabs at home and couldn’t come to see Consort Xin, so she declined.

It was the first time Nanny Tian encountered someone who dared to refuse the royal members. She hurried back and exaggerated the story to Consort Xin, blaming everything on Chu Qingzhi and absolving herself of any responsibility.

Anxious and infuriated by Chu Qingzhi’s refusal, Consort Xin decided to visit Chu Qingzhi personally.

At the Chu Residence.

Consort Xin made a grand entrance, changing into the consort attire and arriving in a grand carriage.

The guard informed Chu Qingzhi, “Miss Chu, Chu Qingzhi has arrived.”

Chu Qingzhi frowned, wondering what important matter it could be for her to visit personally, “1 understand. Let’s go and see her.”

“Yes.”

Chu Qingzhi instructed everyone in the house to stay in the inner courtyard to avoid having to kneel before Consort Xin. It was unnecessary. Then she walked out alone.

Consort Xin sat in the carriage, maintaining her dignity.

Chu Qingzhi recognized Consort Xin and approached the carriage calmly, “Your Highness, may I ask you to step out of the carriage?”

Consort Xin frowned. Why did this voice sound so familiar?

She signaled her maid, who opened the carriage curtain.

It’s her?

After that, Chu Qingzhi did not say anything. Consort Xin got out of the carriage cooperatively and followed Chu Qingzhi into the residence.

Chu Qingzhi brought Consort Xin to the living room. “Your Highness, please sit.”

Consort Xin felt that her status was different from before and directly sat on the seat of honor. Chu Qingzhi did not say anything and sat on the seat below.

A maid served tea and then left them alone.

Eager to get back to her crabs, Chu Qingzhi spoke first, “Your Highness, may 1 know the purpose of your visit?”

Consort Xin was a woman who had been in the palace before. How could she not hear Chu Qingzhi’s rejection and impatience? However, for the sake of her son, she endured it. “1 wish to discuss the matter between you and my son.”

Chu Qingzhi replied indifferently, “Your Highness might be mistaken. In my eyes, your son has always been just my patient. What’s there to discuss?”

Consort Xin was at a loss for words. Chu Qingzhi considered her son a mere patient, while her son was infatuated with Chu Qingzhi. It was clear who was delusional, and now she had even brought the matter to Chu Qingzhi’s door.

Embarrassed like never before, Consort Xin gripped her handkerchief tightly, “Miss, could it be that you made a wrong hint from time to time that caused my son to misunderstand?”

“You’re overthinking, Your Highness,” Chu Qingzhi replied, growing impatient. She continued, “Who would you choose between your son and Jinghong? You’re a woman too; if it were you, who would you pick?”

Not only did this embarrass Consort Xin, but it also made her feel that she did not know her limits.

“Chu Qingzhi, aren’t your words too harsh?”

“I don’t find them harsh, just straightforward. Otherwise, I fear you might misunderstand me,” Chu Qingzhi replied.

Consort Xin felt aggrieved and angry, but her expression did not change. “I don’t wish to misunderstand you, but Tingzhao is so focused on you that he even neglects his own marriage prospects. I’m just worried. Please understand the heart of a mother like me.”

“What do you wish me to do then?” Chu Qingzhi asked.

Consort Xin opened her mouth but couldn’t find the words. Chu Qingzhi’s message was clear: your son’s infatuation is his own delusion, and I have nothing to do with it..
