Chapter 109 Betraying friends

"Snapped!"

A loud slap, and Liu Qing's face immediately turned red with five marks.

"Woooo..."

Her face was so painful that she didn't dare to resist. Instead, she covered her beaten face with her hands, and two lines of tears of grievance fell down her face.

Although Liu Qing behaved very submissively, the third prince did not spare him because of this.

When I think that Murong Qing is now in love with Pei Mo, but he can only marry a boring gourd-like wife who is not as beautiful as Murong Qing and can't help him in any way, he feels even more depressed.

"You bitch! Why did you marry me by mistake in the first place?" The third prince's face was ferocious, his features were tightly knitted together, and his eyes were full of resentment towards Liu Qing.

While speaking, he kicked Liu Qing's thin body again.

Liu Qing was suddenly thrown to the ground, her body was as light as a fallen leaf, and she looked lonely.

"I...I didn't mean it." Liu Qing felt a sharp pain in her waist and abdomen. She couldn't bear the beating, so she reluctantly said a few words, "This is God's will, and there is nothing I can do about it."

.”

"You bitch, how dare you talk back? I'll beat you to death!"

The third prince felt angry and found an excuse to vent all his anger on Liu Qing.

Liu Qing's body was bruised and bruised, and she fell sideways to the ground, crying silently.

The third prince's fists and kicks made her suffer, but at the same time, she also felt a trace of resentment towards Murong Qing in her heart.

"If Murong Qing hadn't exchanged the sedan chair with me, I would be the general's wife now, and I wouldn't have to be scolded by the third prince at this time."

Thinking of her tragic experience, Liu Qing couldn't bear it anymore.

The third prince was beaten and scolded, but he still felt angry. He sat down on the chair and muttered: "Why did you marry the wrong person in the first place? If it was Murong Qing who married me, then I would definitely marry him now."

I’ll be very happy.”

The long night was particularly difficult in Liu Qing's eyes. She finally waited until dawn before the third prince gave her a task and left angrily.

At this time, Pei Mo and Murong Qing had already dressed and walked hand in hand towards the street.

The birthday of the Minister of Libu was coming soon, and they were going to pick out gifts.

In a stationery store that sells calligraphy and paintings, Pei Mo selected a set of excellent Four Treasures of the Study.

"That's it." Pei Mo was very satisfied with the gift he chose and called back to the store, "Wrap this set for me and remember to put it in a gift box. I'm going to give it to someone as a birthday gift."

The shopkeeper ran up diligently, took the gift with both hands, and said with a smile: "General, please wait a moment, I promise to wrap it well for you."

When selecting gifts for disaster relief, Liu Qing came to the store. She was ordered by the third prince to help him buy things.

"Hey, Miss Liu Qing!" Murong Qing did not expect to meet Liu Qing here, and was very surprised. He hurriedly stepped forward and took Liu Qing's hand.

Liu Qing raised her head and glanced at Murong Qing. Thinking of what the third prince did to her last night, she just smiled lightly but did not reply.

However, Murong Qing noticed very carefully that Liu Qing's reaction was a bit wrong, and her face was full of concern.

"Miss Liu Qing, why are you looking so pale? Are you feeling sick recently?"

"No, Miss Murong is too worried," Liu Qing didn't want to look at Murong Qing, and turned her head slightly, feeling a little bored, "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first and say goodbye."

Watching Liu Qing leave in a hurry, the smile on Murong Qing's face gradually disappeared, as if he was worried, he kept his head lowered.

"Do you think Miss Liu Qing is alienated from me?" The more Murong Qing thought about it, the more he felt that he was right.

"She used to be very happy to see me, but today, her mood is a bit off, and it looks like she has some objections to me."

Thinking of the previous meeting with Liu Quan, Murong Qing couldn't help but sigh deeply.

Pei Mo saw that Murong Qing's mood had not been good since meeting Liu Qing. Although he saw some clues, he still comforted her with a smile.

"Don't think too much. Maybe Miss Liu Qing just happens to be in a bad mood. Just wait until the next time you meet and have a good chat."

After Pei Mo enlightened Murong Qing for a while, he put the matter behind him for the time being, and the two of them went shopping together again.

At this time, Liu Qing returned to the third prince's residence. After some thought, she found the third prince.

"What are you doing here?"

The third prince looked up and saw Liu Qing, and couldn't hide the disgust in his eyes.

After thinking about it, Liu Qing went to buy something for him, and then she raised her head again.

"Have you bought the things I asked you to buy?" The tone was cold and without any warmth.

Liu Qing felt sad, but then she forced a smile.

"I have already bought the things," Liu Qing hurriedly handed the things over, thinking to please the third prince, she continued, "When I went shopping today, I met General Pei and Miss Murong."

As soon as he heard Murong Qing's name, the third prince immediately became interested.

But as soon as he heard that Murong Qing was with Pei Mo, his face instantly darkened.

"What does it have to do with me if they go shopping?"

Liu Qingzhan cautiously observed the third prince's expression, and then continued: "Today I saw Miss Murong and the others buying the Four Treasures of the Study. From what they talked about, it seemed that they were going to give it to the Minister of Civil Affairs."

The third prince was stunned for a moment, and then thought about the birthday party.

"oh?"

"It seems that they are planning to give such a birthday gift." A sinister smile flashed at the corner of the third prince's lips.

When he turned to Liu Qing again, the third prince's tone had softened a lot: "You did a good job in this matter today. If you behave well in the future, I will not treat you badly."

He was feeling unhappy with Pei Mo during this period, so he wanted to take this opportunity to suppress him.

As he rolled his eyes, he had a plan in his mind.

The birthday party of the Minister of Civil Affairs was held as scheduled, and all civil servants and military generals came to congratulate him.

Pei Mo rushed to the scene with Murong Qing and saw that Shangshu's house was already packed with people.

"Thank you all for attending my birthday banquet. I have also prepared fine wine and delicacies for you. Let's have a good time today." The Minister of the Ministry of Personnel said with joy in his face and clasped his fists in the spring breeze.

"Hahaha! Congratulations!"

The third prince laughed and walked into the crowd, and everyone hurriedly greeted him.

"This is the birthday gift I prepared for you, sir. Take a look, do you like it?" The third prince went up and took out his own birthday gift.

The Minister of the Ministry of Personnel was flattered and hurriedly took it with both hands and said: "The third prince has troubled himself with such a trivial matter."

With that said, he asked someone to take the box to the back.

"Hey, it would be interesting to open the gift on the spot." The third prince stretched out his hand to block the gift and looked at the Minister of Civil Affairs with a smile.

"Oh, okay, okay, if that's the case, let's open it on the spot." The Minister of Libu saw the third prince's intention and hurriedly changed his tune.
