Snow Color

Chapter 318 Fu Jin 25

In the following days, Qiqige stayed in the capital, quietly waiting for the start of the talent show. She was like a quiet pearl, hidden deep in the bustling Forbidden City. Here, Qiqige did not step out to meet the noble women in the capital.

Everyone in the capital city knew clearly that if nothing unexpected happened, this little princess from Abahai would undoubtedly become the future tenth wife. Most people knew that Qiqige had already been chosen as the wife, so they all wanted to get along well with Qiqige. After all, those famous ladies in the capital city had already made plans in their minds - their future husbands would either be members of the royal family or descendants of the royal family. Therefore, it would be of great benefit to them to be on good terms with Qiqige, the future tenth wife who was favored by the queen mother.

However, what surprised these noble ladies was that they had never seen this little princess from Mongolia go out for fun, let alone attend any flower-viewing banquets. It turned out that all this was because Qiqige deliberately spread the news that she had just arrived in the capital and still had many things to learn, so it was inconvenient for her to go out for social events, so she could only decline the invitation. This not only explained why she was not seen, but also cleverly avoided unnecessary trouble.

Qiqige stepped into the bustling capital, but she felt an inexplicable resistance in her heart. She really had no interest in those social occasions between noble women. One of the reasons was that she thought that participating in such banquets was nothing more than a boring social event. Most of them must have invited her because of her special status. If she really went to such a place, she might not only be unable to play a role, but might be regarded as someone who overestimates her own abilities and is arrogant. Since arriving in the capital, Qiqige has been deliberately keeping a low profile, avoiding being too conspicuous, so as not to leave people with the impression of being arrogant and presumptuous.

However, at this moment, Qiqige hopes to spend this time quietly until the selection is over. After all, there are too many unknown factors and variables during this period, and the slightest carelessness may lead to unexpected consequences. At the same time, the tenth prince frequently visits their mansion in the capital under the pretext of looking for Bater.

It was on such a seemingly ordinary day that when Yin'e accidentally caught a glimpse of Qiqige, his inadvertent gaze did not escape Qiqige's keen observation. She clearly felt the deep meaning in Yin'e's eyes, but surprisingly, Qiqige did not show any strange expression. As the old saying goes: "The best hunters often disguise themselves as prey and appear quietly." Qiqige knew this truth at this moment, so she chose to stay put and continue to maintain the surface calm.

Time flies, and after a long time of more than a month, that day, when Yin'e stepped into the prince's residence, an indescribable feeling came over him. For some reason, the beautiful figure of that person kept flashing in his mind like a ghost. Unable to sleep at night, tossing and turning, Yin'e was at a loss for this sudden situation. The next morning, he was pale and haggard, as if he was exhausted physically and mentally by an invisible pressure.

The Ninth Prince Yinzhen saw this scene the next day and was horrified: "Old Ten! What happened to you? Did you steal last night?"

Yin'e turned his head slightly and looked at Yin'er, but did not say a word.

Seeing this, Yinzhen became more and more interested.

"Tenth Master, please tell me the truth quickly! You look so tired, it is obvious that you haven't slept all night. Tell me quickly, what happened that makes you so upset?" Yinzhen asked anxiously.

Yin'e sighed softly and replied helplessly: "Ninth brother, since I came back with you yesterday, I have been staying indoors. However, even so, I still can't fall asleep. My heart feels like it is being bitten by millions of ants, it itches unbearably, and it is really very annoying."
