Butler Li looked to be in his early forties, with a few white hairs on his temples exposed from the hat. He seemed to be easy to get along with. Thinking of the purpose of Yehua sending her here, Hua Xuanji swallowed her saliva and quickly
Stepping forward, he stood in the same position as Butler Li, rubbed his hands, and asked tentatively:
"Does the palace have any forbidden areas or something?"
Butler Li, who had been keeping his head down, raised his head and looked her up and down, "Why do you ask this?"
"Just." Hua Xuanji touched her nose angrily, "I just want to know where I am not allowed to enter, so as not to make a mistake in the future."
"No." The butler answered very coldly. He suddenly stopped, opened a door and said solemnly: "This will be your room from now on." After a pause, he continued: "The prince's room is next to it.
Remember to be there when you ask for your room. You don’t need to do other things.”
"Wha, what?" Hua Xuanji was confused for a moment. Then she heard Butler Li say:
"Shouldn't the prince's personal maid be on call at all times?" Butler Li then rambled on about the prince's preferences. Finally, looking at Hua Xuanji with a dull look on his face, he said, "Do you know everything?"
"Absolutely." Hua Xuanji shook her head and nodded. Butler Li didn't say anything more, looked at her meaningfully and walked out.
"Huh." After Butler Li left, Hua Xuanji took a long breath, put a few pieces of clothing into the small cupboard, and sighed:
"It seems that life in the Prince's Mansion is not that scary." I just don't know why I suddenly became a personal maid. After thinking about it, maybe it was Yehua's arrangement.
After stretching a lot, Hua Xuanji was just about to lie down on the bed and take a good rest, planning her next action. Suddenly she heard the sound of drinking water coming from above her head.
As soon as he raised his head, his whole body stayed there.
On the window sill, which is not high, Bai Yan is wearing a light blue housecoat, but it is made of fine silk. The cuffs and collar are embroidered with exquisite moire patterns, and there is a brocade brocade belt tightly tied around his waist.
Belt, the shoulders are getting wider and the waist is thinner, the legs are crossed, and lazily tilted towards the window frame, I don’t know when I took a tea cup on the table in the room, and took a shallow sip, with a pair of peach blossom eyes.
He looked over at her with a half-smile.
"Tsk, tsk, good tea."
"Good tea, sir." Hua Xuanji threw a cup over, "Don't you know that scaring people can scare them to death?"
"I didn't know until today." Bai Yan leaned slightly and dodged effortlessly. With a sudden dive like lightning, Hua Xuanji only felt the faint green light in front of her eyes flicker. When she realized what she was doing, she had already fallen.
In his arms.
The sudden confession that day echoed in her ears, and coupled with the faint fragrance of tea that passed into her nose, Hua Xuanji's face turned red to the back of her ears.
Bai Yan narrowed his peach blossom eyes slightly and raised his thin lips slightly, "Did you miss me?"
"No...no." Although she said this, she didn't push him away as quickly as before.
"Really?" His fingers slowly traced from her waist to her chest, and he stretched out his hand into her arms.
"What are you doing?" Hua Xuanji felt a numbness in the place where he touched her. She stretched out her hand and pushed, but his hand had already been withdrawn in time, holding the beautiful dagger between her slender jade fingers.
"What's wrong with you?" He smiled very innocently, but Hua Xuanji had the urge to hit him. It was obvious that his actions aroused suspicion, so when he said this, it seemed like she was thinking something wrong. So she pushed him away.
He opened his mouth and sat on the chair beside him angrily, picked up a tea cup and poured it into his mouth.
"Tsk, tsk, do you think you're kissing me in disguise?"
"..."
"This human skin mask of yours is really ugly."
"..."
"This dagger has a name, do you want to know?" Seeing Hua Xuanji's angry expression, Bai Yan unconsciously raised the corners of his lips, and his gentle voice could not hide his smile.
"In no mood."
"His name is Zangetsu."
"..." Hua Xuanji rolled her eyes angrily and snatched the dagger away. "This is mine."
Thinking that she was unfamiliar with the place in the Prince's Mansion and if something happened, the dagger could protect her, Hua Xuanji put Zhan Yue into her arms and asked casually.
"How did you get in?"
"Let's go." Bai Yan took a sip of tea and answered very naturally.
"You answered the same way last time." Hua Xuanji weakly held her forehead, and suddenly a young girl's tender voice came from outside, "Girl, the prince is going out to visit the garden, please follow me."
"I know, I know." Hua Xuanji replied quickly. After hearing the voice, the little girl stood at the door and hurriedly rushed Yehua out.
"They just arrived." Bai Yan blinked hard with his peach-blossom eyes and began to display his rogue nature again.
"Girl, hurry up." The little girl's voice came from the door again, seeming to be a bit dissatisfied.
"It's coming, it's coming." Hua Xuanji responded loudly and hurriedly pushed Bai Yan out of the window.
"It's so boring." Bai Yan suddenly turned around, placed a gentle kiss on Hua Xuanji's pink cheek, and disappeared in front of Hua Xuanji with a whoosh.
Her face was as red as fire again. Hua Xuanji shook her head, opened the door in a panic, and put on a smile. "Sorry, I was changing clothes just now, so I was a little late."
"Okay, okay." The maid waved her hand impatiently, "Let's go quickly."
"Yes, yes, yes." Hua Xuanji responded indifferently, but her mind had already flown to Bai Yan just now. Thinking of his confession, she actually felt a little itchy in her heart.
But he seemed to know nothing about Bai Yan, except for his name, everything else was vague.
I always feel that his identity should not be simple, otherwise, he would not be able to enter and leave the prince's mansion and Yehua's mansion so easily, and he should be someone who is very familiar with the prince. Otherwise, even if the human skin mask looks like Yehua's carefulness
People will definitely notice it.
It always felt like his identity was clear in my mind, but just when he was about to reveal it, so many doubts emerged.
Just as she was thinking about it, the little girl who came to greet her bent down and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the prince is lucky."
