Chapter 39 Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess and I
Ever since I was scolded by Pei Yuanhao in person, I started to avoid him intentionally or unintentionally. Every time he came to Mei Zhai, I would leave early and let other sisters serve him. Yao Yingxue even cursed a few words on the surface.
Don't embarrass me too much, and I think Pei Yuanhao will be in a better mood if he can't see me.
Every time I think like this, there will be a burst of unnoticeable sadness in my heart, but this sadness will not last long.
Because these days, Xiao Wu comes to see me every once in a while. He seems to be very greedy for the pastries I make. Every time he eats them, his mouth is full of oil, which makes people laugh.
"You," his handkerchief has been used by me to wipe his mouth countless times in the past few days. I smiled and said, "Is it possible that His Highness is hungry for your food? Look at how well you eat."
His face looks like a tabby cat."
"Hehe," he said with an embarrassed smile, "I came here with my stomach intact."
"Is it so delicious? You should have eaten a lot of delicacies from the mountains and seas when you followed His Highness, right?"
"What are the delicacies of mountains and seas?"
Xiao Wu raised his head and looked at me, his clear eyes shining: "I think your dim sum is the most delicious thing in the world!"
"Really?"
"Really!"
Seeing him nodding seriously, I couldn't help but smile, and there was a sweet warmth in my heart. Xiao Wu is really like a younger brother. His recklessness from time to time makes people worry, but he is so considerate. I don't know why.
Being so close to him, I smiled and reached out to help him lift a strand of hair from his forehead.
He looked at me with a dull look in his eyes and said, "Qingying, you--you look so pretty when you smile."
I glared at him: "Don't talk nonsense."
"Really," he said hurriedly, as if he was a little anxious: "Everyone says that the Crown Princess is a stunning beauty, and Mrs. Yingxue is also a great beauty, but I think - when you smile, you are no worse than them, really
Of!"
This child always spoke so openly, no matter how much he tried to persuade me, it was useless. How could a humble servant like me, not to mention Yao Yingxue, be compared to the majestic Crown Princess, so I rolled my eyes at him angrily.
"Okay, I know you have a sweet mouth. I will make more delicious cakes for you tomorrow. Now shut up."
He became even more anxious, his face turned red, and he was about to say something in a hurry. Suddenly he heard someone shouting in the distance. When he listened carefully, it was a group of guards shouting: "His Royal Highness King Qi, His Highness King Qi!"
"Have you found anyone?
"Not yet."
"Go and find him quickly. The Emperor wants to summon His Highness to discuss something."
I was stunned: "His Royal Highness King Qi? Isn't he the fifth prince? Why did they find someone to find Shangyang Palace?"
Xiao Wu's expression also changed, and then he said: "Maybe - King Qi is here to find His Highness the Third Highness." As he said that, he put the remaining half of the snack in his mouth, stood up and said, "I'll go.
Help them find it."
"Hey, wait."
I also stood up and wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief: "Don't go out with a big painted face."
He smiled innocently, and when he heard the voices of those people approaching, he waved to me, turned around and ran away without looking back.
Looking at his back, I couldn't help but smile. I packed up the handkerchiefs and plates on the rockery and turned around to leave this hidden corner. But as soon as I turned around, the smile on my face didn't even have time to disappear.
