Time flies, eight years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Gu Ruojiao is eleven years old.
Under the protection of Xiao Chengyu, Gu Ruojiao lived a very comfortable life.
No one in the entire Taichen Palace dared to treat her as a palace maid, because except for Chengde, she was the most favored one around the prince.
Today, Xiao Chengyu is no different from the emperor except for the enthronement ceremony.
The old emperor tried to suppress Xiao Chengyu's power after that time.
However, he had not been in court for too long, and because of his ignorance and ignorance, he had long lost the support of the people. Xiao Chengyu's abilities were superior to him, and all the officials had defected early on.
After he proposed to depose the prince, the overwhelming persuasion made the old emperor sick.
After that, Xiao Chengyu put the old emperor under house arrest in the palace because he was unwell.
At this point, the entire Xiao Dynasty is already in Xiao Chengyu's pocket.
And not long after, it was the 20-year-old Xiao Chengyu's crown.
He will ascend the throne on the day of the coronation ceremony.
So everyone in the palace was very busy during this period, except Gu Ruojiao.
She was fast asleep under the grape arbor.
There was an upside-down book placed on his smoothly rising belly, and his long black hair was scattered on the ground.
Because she was greedy for the cold, she hung her blouse on the armrest of the beauty's bed and fell asleep in her blouse.
Xiao Chengyu saw this scene when he came in, and immediately waved his hand to ward off the people following him.
He approached gently, and the afternoon sunlight fell on her through the gaps in the vines.
She was sleeping soundly, and a few strands of hair on her forehead were blown by the wind and fell on her eyelashes, which were as thick as crow feathers, causing them to tremble slightly.
Xiao Chengyu leaned over and pushed away the few strands of hair.
The disturbed Gu Ruojiao muttered something and turned over impatiently, facing away from Xiao Chengyu.
A little foot was cold outside the beauty's bed, which was very dazzling.
"I don't look like I'm sleeping."
Xiao Chengyu reached out and pulled the person over.
Gu Ruojiao was woken up and opened her eyes and glared at him in displeasure.
"Brother Yu, you are so annoying."
"You always sleep during the day, but what do you do at night?"
"I didn't sleep." She looked away guiltily.
Xiao Chengyu didn't speak, just looked at her.
As he gets older, Xiao Chengyu is now becoming more calm and unpredictable.
As long as he doesn't say a word, he can make people's hearts tremble.
Just the look in her eyes made Gu Ruojiao unbearable and she acted coquettishly towards him.
"I'm just going to take a nap. I'm bored alone."
"So you're sleeping here dressed like this?"
"No one dares to come in anyway."
This is her little world of solitude, and no one dares to break in without her being summoned.
Xiao Chengyu looked at her disapprovingly.
Gu Ruojiao could only put on the Luo shirt and skirt resignedly.
Xiao Chengyu came over naturally to help her tie her clothes.
Then he held the person in his arms like he did when he was a child.
"What have you been busy doing lately?"
She didn't even have time to see him, so he had no choice but to come look for her.
"This is a secret, we can't tell it."
A trace of displeasure flashed across Xiao Chengyu's face when he heard this.
He didn't like Gu Ruojiao hiding something from him, even if it was just a small matter.
He polished the jade hoe (she) between his fingers, with an indistinguishable expression: "I heard that you have been very close to Zhang Yuchu from the Imperial Kitchen Room recently."
Gu Ruojiao was not surprised that he knew her whereabouts very well.
But it is very problematic for him to single out Zhang Yuchu.
She could only say: "The pastries made by Chef Zhang are delicious."
"Is it so delicious that you go to him several times a day?"
"..."
Gu Ruojiao immediately picked up the book that fell on the ground.
"Brother Yu, look, this is the script Chengde just found for me."
She abruptly changed the subject, convinced that Xiao Chengyu just couldn't do anything about it.
It is true that Xiao Chengyu can't do anything to her, but that doesn't mean that he can't do anything to others.
Xiao Chengyu secretly wrote down the incident about Chef Zhang.
