"Really?" Rong Bin looked at the child with a wonderful smile in rapt attention. She couldn't understand how painful it would be for such a baby to bite someone.
The two talked back and forth, and every time Ruan Yuyi talked about something else, Rong Bin would always turn the conversation back to Youer. Seeing her novelty, Ruan Yuyi was also willing to talk to her more.
But Youer was still young after all, and fell asleep again after a while.
While they were chatting, the sound of a woman's argument suddenly sounded outside, and the other one was Cen Li. Calling it a dispute, Cen Li's attitude was always calm, but the woman raised her voice and became excited.
"Muxiang, go out and see what's going on." The two of them also walked out.
After a while, Mu Xiang came back and said, "It's Miss Bai He who lives next to the eldest princess."
Ruan Yuyi's tea-making hand stopped, "Send her in."
.
Bai He glared at Cen Li before stepping inside.
Cen Li looked calm and even stepped aside. In fact, he was just following the instructions from above. Since the eldest princess did not want to get married and asked to go to Chang'an Palace, His Majesty issued an order not to allow the eldest princess's people to enter.
.
But this person spoke again, so he had no choice but to compromise and let people in.
As soon as Bai He entered, without any hesitation, he kowtowed first and said, "I wish to work in Chang'an Palace, and I hope your Majesty will fulfill my wish." She lay on the ground, as if she planned to kneel down without her consent.
Ruan Yuyi was too lazy to mingle with her. She lowered her eyes and handed a piece of fruit to Rong Bin, saying with a warm voice, "But because of Youer?"
Bai He was stunned for a moment, raised his head slightly, and his eyes fell on the hem of her snow-green skirt, "Your Majesty, you are smart."
When she saw Rong Bin taking a bite of the fruit, with a look on her face asking for praise, she whispered to Rong Bin, "Sister, don't just pick out the fruit, it's so sweet."
"I don't know that you like sour food? You are secretly asking me to keep the sour food." Rong Bin laughed at her.
She didn't mean this at first, knowing that Rong Bin was just joking, so she continued, "My sister found out after all."
The two people at the top were chatting and laughing. Bai He lowered his eyes and could only hear her own heart beating like a drum. She thought about it for several days, but still couldn't stay in the Clothing Bureau. She didn't want to be transferred elsewhere. She wanted to replace her.
His Highness watched the young master grow up.
Just because of this relationship with His Highness——
"I forgive you for being loyal, so I'll just stay." A gentle voice suddenly said from above.
Bai He was startled at first, then his cheeks filled with joy, and he thanked her again and again.
"If you don't understand anything, ask the wet nurse. Most of the time, she is looking at You'er." She paused and then said, "Remember, your master is You'er, not me." She was saying yes.
Bai He stayed beside Youer.
Hearing what she said, Bai He thanked her profusely, and his words were more sincere.
.
Qing Luo took Bai He to the lower room to arrange her belongings. Seeing that it was getting late, Rong Bin got up and made a speech.
"Sister, why don't you stay a little longer? Let's have dinner together." Ruan Yuyi stood up.
Concubine Rong shook her head and said, "His Majesty will be here in a while, and concubines are not cheap here." She had seen the pattern and deliberately only came to talk to her when he was not around.
She estimated that this was also the case, so she stopped forcing it.
.
It was true as Rong Bin said, after she left, Jiang Huaiyang came on the back foot.
The palace servants had prepared two servings of bowls and chopsticks earlier. The dishes on the table were hot and steaming. Both the color and the presentation were carefully designed by the royal chef. Just looking at them will make your mouth water.
But Ruan Yuyi had just used a lot of pastries and fruits, but she was not very hungry at the moment, so she took a chopstick and chewed it for a long time.
His eyes fell on her jade-like hands. After a long moment, he said, "Has your hand been grabbed?"
She was startled for a moment, then raised her hand to look. There was a thin red mark on it, which looked particularly dazzling against the snowy skin. She paused for a moment and then remembered that it was an accidental mark when she pushed away Youer's hand.
He caught me, but it didn't hurt at the time.
She didn't even notice such a small injury, so how did he know about it.
She was slightly surprised, but in the end she didn't ask, and hid her hands in her sleeves, "It's okay, but it looks a little scary."
But he didn't listen, and couldn't help but grab her hand. He looked at it carefully and made sure it was okay, so he stopped asking.
The two of them were sitting at opposite ends of the table. In order to reach her hand, he was squatting in front of her. He placed a kiss on the red mark and whispered, "Have dinner later."
When the time comes, keep some belly."
I noticed that her white socks were slipping a little, so I took off my embroidered shoes and tied them again for her.
Hearing what he said, a chill ran down Ruan Yuyi's spine. She pulled back her foot, causing the bell to jingle. Yes, there are still many of his eyes and ears in this palace, both overtly and covertly. Even if they know, it is reasonable.
.
His hands were free, and he raised his eyelids to look at her, "What?" He seemed completely unaware of why she suddenly became unhappy. Maybe she had been squatting for a long time, and her legs were numb, and she wanted to get up.
She stepped on his knee without wearing embroidered shoes, and pressed her not to move. She muttered in a low voice, "Your Majesty knows everything, but I can only take a look at you when you come over. It's so unfair."
When she said this, she didn't want to carry him behind her back. Jiang Huaiyang listened and chuckled, "When did I really stop you from coming? You don't have to report it."
He grabbed her thin white ankles but let her step on them.
The tip of her ear was crimson, and she twitched it casually, but it didn't twitch, so she gave it up and said, "This is different." She lowered her eyes and looked at him, then looked away slightly, the water in her eyes was flowing, and the slightest movement brought out thousands of emotions.
.
His throat tightened and he said hoarsely, "I think Ling Ling isn't very hungry yet." Why don't you do something else.
She understood what he meant and quickly picked up the jade chopsticks, "I just use it more slowly."
Jiang Huaiyang ignored her poor excuse, straightened up, and picked her up, causing the soft curtain in the inner room to rise and fall.
She was placed into the soft quilt, almost sinking in. He gently sucked her earlobe into his mouth, and ate the lipstick on her lips bit by bit, slowly and slowly, as if this was dinner.
She was provoked to tremble slightly, her bones were numb, and her whole body went limp.
Where the wet nurse and Youer were separated by a wall, the low voice of coaxing the child could be heard clearly in her ears.
"Your Majesty, You'er is still here..."
He clicked his tongue, a little disgusted with Youer's troubles, and began to think about whether to keep him in Chang'an Palace.
In the chaos, she vaguely heard him say, "If Lingling doesn't like it, I will transfer Cen Li and the others elsewhere."
When she woke up again, the sky was completely dark, and all the palaces were still brightly lit. Ruan Yuyi stood up, walked out with her embroidered shoes, and saw that he was reading some book in one hand.
Taking another closer look, it was the notebook she used to pass the time.
She took away the book and saw that food had been prepared on the tables on the side.
