Chapter 17 - What does the Prince want to say?
Crown Prince Pei Yuan stood at the door with a faint smile on his face.
“His Royal Highness?” I was shocked, and hurried to kneel and worship: “Slave meets His Royal Highness.”
He walked in slowly and walked in front of me. The white placket fluttered softly in front of his eyes. He looked down at me and said gently, “Get up.”
“Thank Your Highness.”
I didn’t dare to take a sip, I was afraid that I had just seen him learn to write, but he smiled slightly and went to the bookshelf to read a book as if nothing had happened.
There was a silence in the cabinet, as if every time he came here, it was so quiet, I still bowed to him beside him, waiting quietly. At this time, while reading a book, Pei Yuanxiu casually said, “On the fifth day of the fifth day, why aren’t you here?”
Fifth day? I froze for a moment, and immediately remembered that the fifth day was supposed to be on duty, but that day, Pei Yuanzhang came to the court to find someone, so we were all left there, and there was no one in the cabinet, Prince. How did His Royal Highness know that he had come to the Cabinet to borrow it that day?
I hurriedly said, “On the 5th day of the 5th day, there was something going on in the court to the court, and the slaves were all left.”
“Oh,” Pei Yuan raised his eyebrows, as if remembering something: “Yes, I heard that he went to a palace girl she once favored that day, and found it?”
“found it.”
“who is it?”
“It’s a female officer, called Yao Yingxue.”
“Yao Yingxue …” The Prince silently read the name, looked down at me again, and suddenly smiled, “Yeah, I thought he took you away.”
“Ah?” I jumped in my heart, looked up at him, but saw Pei Yuanxiu looking at me with a smile, and the sun shone on his fair and handsome face, showing a faint luster, gentle as a jade, And his eyes are so gentle, even in such a cold weather, it feels like a spring breeze.
I was flushed with this gaze and bowed my head.
Looking at me, he smiled again, turned to look at the books on the bookshelf, no longer spoke, only me and his breathing sounded in the air.
However, after a long time, he just watched and did not take a book from the bookshelf.
I thought about it and said softly, “His Royal Highness, I don’t know which book His Royal Highness is looking for, slaves help His Highness find it.”
“I’ve found it, just–“
“Just what?”
He smiled slightly and turned to look at me: “I don’t know if you’ve finished watching it.”
I hesitated, and immediately understood, and hurriedly presented the “Thirteen Sutra Notes” in my hands, and said, “Slave **** it. Slaves do not know this is the book your Highness is looking for, Slaves–“
“What the hell?” He grinned. “If no one reads the book, it’s just a pile of waste paper, what’s the point?”
After speaking, he took the book in my hand, flipped it at will, and looked up at me again: “Yue Qingying.”
“What else does His Highness command?”
“…”
He paused, his expression was a little cramped, and I looked at him puzzled, wondering what he was going to tell me.
