Ruan Yuyi took the copied scriptures and the sachet together and set off to find the crown prince.
There was no one in the courtyard. She thought for a moment, put the scriptures in the Buddhist hall, and carried the sachet close to her body. After sitting for a while, she saw a young man in Xuanyi pushing the door open. He was slender and had a cool air.
Precious.
It was a cloudy day today, but at first glance, it seemed that the coldness around him had forced back the light, making him afraid to get close.
Ruan Yuyi stood up calmly and saluted, "His Royal Highness."
The man nodded slightly, accepted it, but did not come towards her, but went to the side room. Wen Zhi, who was following her, smiled at her and said, "Girl, please go into the side room too."
, I’m afraid it’s going to rain heavily today.”
After hearing this, she couldn't help but look up and saw a dark cloud above her head. Looking further into the distance, the sky over there was still clear.
It really looked like it was going to rain. She said nothing and followed into the side room.
Jiang Huaiyang was reading a book with her head down. When she crossed the threshold, he happened to turn a page. She hesitated for a while, moved the wooden stool to one side and sat down near him.
He noticed a tang-colored figure in his peripheral vision, paused for a moment, and turned another page - even though he had not finished reading the content.
Ruan Yuyi took out the sachet from her sleeve, held it in her hand, and licked her lips. Seeing the prince's focused look, she didn't know how to speak.
He raised his eyelids and said like a clear spring over a stone, "Just tell me if you have anything to say." At this moment, he had almost thought about it. No matter if she offered to help her escape from the Cheng family, or something else, he would definitely agree.
.
Unexpectedly, she handed over a sachet with a moon-white dark pattern and embroidered with goose-yellow flowers. The outstretched hand was white, like jade, making the sachet even more delicate.
He had actually seen this little goose-yellow flower on the little lady's underwear, but before she could answer what kind of flower it was, the dream ended. In addition, people usually use plum, orchid, bamboo, chrysanthemum, or dragon and phoenix, so it's not surprising.
He couldn't tell at a glance.
"My little girl is not good at embroidery, so please give it a try, Your Highness," Ruan Yuyi said.
He was really curious about what kind of flower it was, so he stretched out his hand to take it. His fingertips accidentally touched the palm of the little lady's hand. She only felt a tingling sensation in the place where he had touched her. She quickly withdrew her hand and hid it under her hand.
Under the case, quietly hold it tight.
Only then did he realize that it was actually sweet-scented osmanthus. He put it under his nose and sniffed it, and asked casually, "Is there also sweet-scented osmanthus in it?" Why did it smell slightly bitter like medicine?
She explained, "Yes, it is also mixed with some drugs that have sedative effects."
The golden osmanthus embroidered on it was all round and lovely, and the silk threads were arranged neatly, which showed that a lot of thought had been put into it. He glanced at it briefly and didn't think much about it. Instead of handing it to Wen Pheasant, he paid it in
In the sleeves.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Huaiyang suddenly asked, "How are you doing at home?" I don't know how he reacted when he found a reason to deduct Master Cheng's salary last time.
She didn't know why he suddenly asked this question, so she subconsciously replied, "Thanks to His Highness' concern, everything is fine." She couldn't say that she came to him because she wanted to find someone else to rely on. If so, wouldn't she tell him clearly?
I was deliberately taking advantage of him.
He looked at her with a complicated expression, but saw that her face was calm, as if nothing had happened at home. He pursed his lips, not wanting to ask any more questions.
Seeing that the table was empty, Mu Xiang said she would go get some tea. As soon as Mu Xiang left, the guards from outside came to report that it was the eldest princess who wanted to see her.
Hearing this, Ruan Yuyi's heart skipped a beat. Everything was still uncertain at the moment, and the prince was still hot and cold towards her. She knew that it was not the time to let Zhao Rong know that she was connected with the prince.
Just as Jiang Huaiyang was about to speak, her hand hidden under the desk quietly pulled at his sleeve. She was really flustered. After pulling, she realized that such an action was a bit out of bounds. She was not a close relative of the prince, so how could he understand?
What she wants, let alone follow her.
He felt her movements, paused, and then said, "Let her come in."
As soon as these words came out, Ruan Yuyi could no longer maintain her superficial calmness. Seeing that the guard had left the wing to reply, she looked around and saw no hiding place.
If Zhaorong knew about this, she would definitely not hide it. By then, the entire Cheng family would know about it. After all, her husband in name was still alive, and if word spread about what he had done to the prince, he would be despised.
Cheng Mansion will definitely not be able to keep her by then. He is afraid that His Highness will also pretend not to know her.
Soon there were footsteps outside the door.
Getting closer.
Ruan Yuyi's mind suddenly went blank. Without thinking much, she opened the table and hid it inside. Fortunately, for the convenience of cleaning, the temple put a piece of cloth on it, just to change the cloth after the last guest left.
After taking a breath, she looked around intently. The light from outside could only be vaguely reflected through the tablecloth, so it showed the same color. In front of her were Jiang Huaiyang's legs, with the train of clothes hanging down.
, and further down are a pair of forged boots.
Perhaps after seeing that the prince didn't chase her away, she felt relieved. She even had the thought to compare her own shoes with hers, and found that the other's shoes were really a little bigger than hers.
Seeing her hiding under the table, not only Jiang Huaiyang but Wen Zhi was also shocked.
He reacted quickly and hurriedly went out to stop the eldest princess. He smiled politely on his face, but in fact he was searching for everything he could say in his mind and tried his best to hold Zhaorong back. He only hoped that the master inside would be merciful and call this person
Miss Ruan went to take shelter under the window.
So as not to make things difficult for Miss Ruan.
He could vaguely understand why Miss Ruan wanted to avoid the eldest princess. Although he was willing to cooperate, it made him truly realize the inconvenience of not having a screen in the room.
The only reason is that Shenghe Temple is too frugal and cannot have all the items in the palace.
In the side room, Jiang Huaiyang seemed not to understand the young lady's anxiety at all, and sat in front of several tables with his expression as usual.
Ruan Yuyi stayed in the small dark space, hearing the faint sound of Wen Zhi and Zhao Rong talking outside, and moved her legs that were so weak from squatting slightly. With this movement, numbness climbed up on her legs, and she suddenly couldn't squat.
, feeling that he was about to fall backwards, he couldn't help but reached out to support his calf, and then stabilized his body.
Jiang Huaiyang felt a hand grab him, and then let go quickly. His eyes darkened, he looked at the table hanging on his knees, silently retracted his legs and tightened his body, but felt that his legs were passive again.
one time.
At this moment, he could even imagine the little lady with her ears red and her heart obviously tight with shyness, but she still wanted to tease him.
Maybe it was going to rain heavily, but he felt that the room was extremely hot and stuffy, so he got up and went out, leaving her here.
Zhao Rong, who was standing outside, saw that Wen Pheasant had been blocking him, thinking that the emperor's brother was unwilling to see him. Now that he saw him coming out, he felt relieved and felt that he had someone to rely on. He turned around and glared at Wen Pheasant.
Wen Zhi's expression remained unchanged, but he quietly glanced at the half-open door.
Zhaorong helped Bu Yao and was about to speak when Jiang Huaiyang interrupted, "If you have anything to tell me, just go to the next room and tell me." He was standing outside looking like something was going on.
Zhao Rong had no objection, so he turned around and went to the next room.
In this way, the young lady should not be able to hear Zhao Rong address him. In fact, from the beginning, he never thought of letting Zhao Rong notice her. He just saw her panic and wanted to tease her badly.
