An Lianxi looked at An Lianhua and An Shouyi not far away, and frowned subconsciously. He didn't really want to see these two people, or he didn't want to have any entanglement with them at all.
In recent days, An Shouyi has frequently submitted greetings to Prince Qi's Mansion, but all of them were rejected. However, except for the first time, An Lianxi had no way of knowing the rest.
An Shouyi didn't know the inside story, so he just thought that his son had climbed onto a high branch, and he was jealous. I can't help but think to myself: It turns out that no matter how weak a person is, there will be times when he becomes strong-willed. In other words, it has already begun to show signs of this since he escaped from marriage.
However, this also made An Shouyi look down upon An Lianxi more and more, but she couldn't hold her breath after becoming a princess. Even if the rumors from the outside world about King Qi's love for him are true, the royal family is ruthless, so how long can he be prosperous?
So when An Shouyi saw An Lian Xi, he had a sullen face and didn't give him a good look.
An Lian Xi simply nodded to the two of them and pursed his lower lip, "Brother, father."
Seeing him speak, An Shouyi's expression softened slightly and he just raised his chin slightly. Seeing this, An Lianhua continued: "Brother, I haven't been home for a long time. Father and I miss you very much."
Before An Lianxi could speak, An Lianhua added tentatively: "Recently, my father has been delivering greeting cards to Prince Qi's Mansion every day. Has my brother received it?"
Hearing this, An Lianxi was startled. He didn't know about this, but... "I got it, what's the matter?"
His attitude was cold and indifferent, which made An Lianhua hesitate. He originally wanted to say this to his father, so that he could see clearly the difference between the two brothers, but to his surprise, An Lianxi actually agreed.
An Lianhua felt a little resentful and could not speak again for a while. An Shouyi, who was standing aside, frowned fiercely and looked at An Lianxi with an increasingly unhappy look, "Since you received it, why don't you come and see your father? Yes,"
Manager Zhang, who knew very well that the prince was not happy with An Shouyi, and who had also seen the Shadow Guard investigation, frowned and interrupted before he could finish his words: "Servant An, you made a mistake."
Only then did An Shouyi notice Manager Zhang who had been following An Lianxi. This was the senior manager of Prince Qi's Mansion, and he had some dignity outside. His expression immediately changed, "Mr. Zhang, Manager Zhang. "
At the same time, An Shouyi couldn't help but think too much.
Manager Zhang unexpectedly followed An Lianxi, and his thoughts suddenly changed.
Are the rumors true? They all doted on them for this reason...
Even though the Tian family is ruthless, being favored is real. An Shouyi could fool himself before, but now he suddenly felt uncertain and felt uneasy in his heart.
Manager Zhang's fair and beardless face showed a cold smile, "Oh, thank you for recognizing my old face."
An Shouyi managed to calm down and reorganize his words: "I didn't pay attention just now. Manager Zhang, and where are you planning to go, Princess?"
Logically speaking, he needs to bow when he sees An Lianxi now, but he was careless and ignored the existence of other people. An Lianhua, on the other hand, looked down upon Mr. Zhang, just a eunuch.
Manager Zhang turned away coldly and turned to An Lianxi with a bright smile, "Princess, here, I heard that Eunuch Gao said a few days ago that there is a garden in the palace where the flowers are in bloom. Let's go there later." Take a look from a distance."
He still remembered the last time the princess was fumed by the sweet-scented osmanthus in the yard and her chest felt tight.
An Lianxi didn't say anything during the whole process. He really couldn't stand An Shouyi's two faces. At the same time, he felt warm in his heart at Manager Zhang's thoughtfulness. "Okay."
Manager Zhang quickly led the way, and the group of people walked past An Shouyi and his son.
An Shouyi was on edge. Seeing Manager Zhang's cautious look towards An Lianxi made him even more uneasy.
Beside him, An Lianhua stared at the retreating figures of the group, almost gritting his silver teeth.
The next second, a faint smell of blood filled the mouth, and his gums actually bled from his bite.
An Shouyizheng was worried and wanted to ask his second son for advice. The latter could speak well with the sixth prince, which would give him some confidence as long as the other prince really took a fancy to his second son.
Unexpectedly, as soon as An Shouyi turned his head, he was startled by the gloomy expression on his second son's face that was different from before.
Is this his second son? How could the second son, who was always gentle and gentle in the past, show such an expression.
An Shouyi was stunned for a moment before shouting: "...Lian Hua?"
Hearing his voice, An Lianhua came back to his senses. The gloom on his face disappeared and he smiled softly at An Shouyi, "Father, let's go find the Sixth Prince."
An Shouyi originally wanted to ask something, but when he realized what An Lianhua said, his expression became brighter again, "Okay, okay, as a father, I will accompany you to see the Sixth Prince, so that you can thank the Sixth Prince for his kindness to you during this time." care."
After An Lianhua came back from the southern border, An Shouyi was still wondering why the sixth prince didn't come to An's house. Now that he heard this, he had completely dispelled his worries, not to mention that it was still an important time for him to stabilize his mind.
It seems that the eldest son has separated from him, but An Shouyi didn't count on him at first. Now he only needs to help the second son win over the sixth prince. In An Shouyi's view, the sixth prince is more likely to ascend the throne. .
Thinking like this, An Shouyi forgot about An Lianxi.
To this day, he still hasn't seen it with his own eyes. For a moment, he didn't even think about asking his second son.
But even if An Lianhua heard An Shouyi ask this, he would not really tell him the truth.
Father just needs to know that he is better than that useless guy An Lianxi in all aspects. What he just couldn't figure out was... a person who was so cowardly before and couldn't hold his head up after being stepped on by him didn't expect that one day he would turn his back on him.
An Lianxi sneezed a few times before he had gone far, startling Manager Zhang who was leading the way. "What's wrong with the princess?" She must have been sneezing again.
Wen Mu, who had been following him, also quickly stepped forward to help, "Master."
An Lianxi shook his head: "It's okay, you don't have to worry."
Wenmu watched his expression carefully, and after confirming that everything was fine, he whispered: "Young Master is so awesome."
An Lianxi turned his head.
Wen Mu: "Just now, the master and the second young master were like that..." And since he has been staying with the young master, it is certain that the young master does not know that the master later sent a greeting card.
However, the young master just said that, clearly embarrassing the other party.
Wen Mu's heart was filled with excitement.
An Lianxi also whispered to him: "They hate it."
After a pause, he added: "Wenmu, please ignore them." He was worried that Wenmu would accidentally get involved in the plot.
Judging from the fact that An Lianhua has had many conflicts with him, if An Lianhua really wants to take revenge, it would be better for Wen Mu to stay away from them.
Wenmu nodded: "You don't need to say anything, young master, Wenmu won't pay attention to them."
In the past, they were dependent on others and had to rely on those people's support to live. Now that the young master has left An Mansion, there is no need to look at their faces anymore.
What's more, the young master now has the prince as his backer.
It's just that this backer is a bit scary, but Wenmu can see that the prince cherishes the young master.
Although Wenmu felt that King Qi was more terrifying in the scene at the waterside pavilion in Xilin Garden last time, the other party was because of the young master, so Wenmu naturally accepted this.
Even when the young master asked about the situation later, he still hid a little bit.
Although King Qi is scary, Wenmu can accept it as long as he is good to the young master.
An Lianxi was not too entangled in this.
He knows best what kind of person Xue Shiye is.
It's just that there is something different today. After walking for a while, An Lianxi asked Manager Zhang, "Today is the memorial day of the Queen Mother. Will the prince go to pay homage later?"
Manager Zhang paused for a moment before saying: "Every year, His Majesty will hold sacrifices for the Empress today, but the prince will worship alone in Qifeng Palace." That was Empress Shen's palace during her lifetime.
Even though Emperor Ming Kang later re-enclosed the palace, no one ever lived in Qifeng Palace again.
Queens of all dynasties have lived in Qifeng Palace, and Emperor Kangdi of Ming Dynasty's move was tantamount to announcing to everyone that his wife was only Queen Shen in this life.
There is no way of knowing what others think, but this move did not move their princes, and Manager Zhang did not say anything more.
"Really..." An Lianxi lowered his eyes.
Manager Zhang revealed: "At this time every year, the prince will stay in Qifeng Palace for a whole day."
An Lianxi suddenly turned his head and looked at Manager Zhang, "Then he asked you to take me around?"
Manager Zhang looked at him silently.
Without too many words, An Lianxi understood, "I want to go to Qifeng Palace."
He said he was going to see His Majesty, but it turned out that he was lying to him.
This big liar!
Manager Zhang hesitated, "Princess, this..."
The prince has ordered him to take the princess around, but now I am afraid that this task will not be completed.
An Lianxi didn't look at him and turned to ask other palace officials to lead the way.
Manager Zhang stood there and looked at An Lianxi's leaving figure, sighing in his heart. In fact, he didn't tell the princess this on purpose, but fortunately, the princess was also caring.
After gathering his thoughts, Manager Zhang strode after him.
After staying with the prince for so many years, Manager Zhang has watched him grow up.
Now that the other party's heart is hard to get rid of, how could he not be anxious? He just couldn't find a way.
Now the opportunity to resolve the other party's knot is here. Manager Zhang can only feel happy and a little relieved.
In this way, the empress can feel at ease.
An Lianxi followed the palace attendant who led the way to the outside of Qifeng Palace. Before he could enter, he was stopped by two guards in black with knives.
"Who is it?" The cold voice contained a hint of solemnity, and both of them were masked.
An Lianxi was stunned.
Manager Zhang hurriedly stepped forward, "You two, this is our princess, here to see the prince."
The two guards looked at each other, put down their swords, and stood back to their original positions without saying anything more to them.
Mr. Zhang said: "Princess, come in."
An Lianxi then walked towards Qifeng Palace, "Who were the two... people just now?" They looked so fierce.
Manager Zhang: "His Majesty sent him to guard Qifeng Palace." Both of them were secret guards and only worked for Emperor Mingkang. Because of the reason of guarding Qifeng Palace, they moved from the dark to the open.
However, in terms of style, he still retains the habits of a secret guard. He treats everyone this way and will not be lenient in the slightest because of your status.
After listening to Manager Zhang's explanation, An Lianxi couldn't help but sigh.
In this way, Emperor Mingkang really fell in love with Empress Shen.
Even the palace where the other party lived during his lifetime must be guarded by secret guards.
After walking forward for a while, Manager Zhang suddenly stopped.
Other palace people stopped at the same time.
An Lianxi glanced at Manager Zhang.
Manager Zhang: "Princess, you can go find the prince yourself later, the servants will not go in."
An Lianxi nodded thoughtfully, "Okay."
After saying that, he continued walking inside.
Wen Mu wanted to follow, but then Manager Zhang grabbed his arm.
"General Manager Zhang?" Wen Mu glanced at the young master's back and frowned.
Manager Zhang warned in a low voice: "We can't enter here." What's more... At this time, whoever enters will be unlucky.
But the princess is different.
Wen Mu could only give up in frustration, and then continued to look in the direction where An Lianxi left.
The door of the huge palace is wide open, and there is a hint of coolness in the grandeur. Only darkness can be seen inside the open door, which makes people feel inexplicable danger. It's as if there is a giant beast dormant inside, just waiting to devour anyone who accidentally intrudes.
Shocking for no reason.
An Lianxi was also a little scared, but thinking that Xue Shiye was inside, he gradually calmed down and walked towards the palace.
As he slowly came closer, a faint smell of green smoke first penetrated the tip of his nose, and An Lianxi couldn't help but frown. Further inside, the faint flickering light of candlelight can be seen, which is particularly eye-catching in the dark hall.
There were candles in a circle.
What he smelled before turned out to be the smell of candles, and when he got closer, a ball of fire came into view.
An Lianxi looked over and saw that the familiar figure was surrounded by firelight, seeming to merge with the flames. The original dark clothes were reflected in a fiery red color. The extreme color reveals extreme depression, as if the person will disappear as the fire burns out the next moment.
He couldn't help opening and closing his lips, and softly called out the name, "Xue Shiye..."
The moment the words fell, the figure reflected by the fire turned slightly sideways, revealing the sculptured face. The light in the man's eyes seemed to be dead and lifeless.
Just when he raised his eyes, his expression lit up a little.
Xue Shiye looked at the figure walking into the hall, watching the latter raise his feet and slowly approach him. His heart beat with the other person's movements, little by little, gradually becoming more intense and boiling.
After An Lianxi saw Xue Shiye's expression clearly, he ran towards him without thinking, "Xue Shiye."
He threw himself into Xue Shiye's arms, and as the reassuring breath brushed his face, his whole heart settled down.
At this moment, An Lianxi had a lot to say, and even wanted to question the other party loudly.
If he hadn't asked Manager Zhang more, he would have worshiped alone and endured it silently.
How can you do this......
"Xue Shiye." An Lian called him sarcastically.
The voice seemed to be trembling.
"How did you come?"
Xue Shiye's voice was very soft, as if he was afraid that everything in front of him was just a dream.
Why come?
Everything in front of him was extremely real. Xue Shiye curled his knuckles slightly, as if confirming, and slowly touched the other party's waist.
The paper money fell with his movements, and finally fell on their overlapped clothes.
An Lianxi said: "I'm coming to find you."
My eyes are sore and my nose is sore.
You were obviously so sad, why didn't you tell him.
Xue Shiye heard the grievance in his words, and tightened his grip on his waist, then released it, and raised it to cover his face, "Don't cry."
It was okay if he didn't say it, but once he did, An Lianxi couldn't help crying, and the crystal tears fell down in big pieces, giving him a feeling of abandonment.
Xue Shiye's heart suddenly palpitated, and he felt cramps.
An Lianxi looked at him, his vision was a little hazy. He looked at the gradually blurring figure, holding back his sobs and said, "I'm going to cry."
Xue Shiye: "Don't cry."
He wasn't crying for himself.
An Lianxi was crying for him.
Someone once said that tears are the least valuable thing, but An Lianxi believes that tears are actually the most valuable. They carry countless desires that cannot be vented in everyone's heart.
Sometimes crying is not necessarily a bad thing.
But... what about those who have shed all their tears?
An Lianxi finally couldn't help but said, "Why..."
Xue Shiye could no longer hold back and took the person into his arms, "I'm sorry."
Before An Lianxi could speak, Xue Shiye continued with a hoarse voice: "I'm sorry."
Another voice: "I'm sorry."
Apology after apology.
Xue Shiye kissed his forehead.
"I'm sorry." Xue Shiye's voice was low, knowing that he understood clearly, so he explained: "I originally wanted to find you after paying homage and take you home."
An Lian scoffed, "But..." Manager Zhang clearly said that Xue Shiye would spend a day alone in Qifeng Palace on this day every year.
Xue Shiye said: "I didn't promise you that I would find you as soon as possible."
An Lian said in a muffled voice, "But you also lied to me."
Xue Shiye said nothing.
An Lianxi's eyes were red. Under the candlelight, they looked unclear, and the dense water vapor made them look even more moving.
He lowered his head, looking very lonely.
Xue Shiye's heart ached.
The next moment, An Lianxi could only feel the sight in front of him The man bowed slightly downward, and Xue Shiye's face appeared again in his originally lowered field of vision, and then slowly zoomed in.
The tears falling on her face were kissed away one by one tenderly.
"No lie."
Xue Shiye spoke hoarsely.
An Lianxi said: "You have."
Xue Shinye simply hugged him again, raised his chin with his hand, and continued to kiss his moist eyelashes, "No."
Then, before An Lianxi could speak, he continued: "I just don't want Xiaoguai to feel distressed."
An Lianxi paused, not expecting this reason, and stared straight at Xue Shiye.
Xue Shiye felt a lump in his throat.
An Lianxi turned his face and said, "I don't feel bad."
Xue Shiye stared at his earlobe that was facing her, and his eyes lingered on the crimson on the latter's ears, "Well, no."
An Lianxi stopped talking again.
Just at this moment, the earlobe was kissed.
Just touch and leave.
An Lianxi covered his ears. There was nothing strange on Xue Shiye's face. He even looked very serious. He led him a few steps forward and said, "Since you are here, come with me to pay homage to the Queen Mother."
Hearing this, An Lianxi didn't care anymore. The entire hall was filled with smoke. He endured the discomfort of being smoked and swept around.
At this moment, his eyes fell directly in front of where Xue Shiye was pulling him, where Queen Shen's tablet was placed.
"Mother, this is my child's princess."
Xue Shiye said something to the tablet, his tone was soothing but extremely serious.
An Lianxi was also about to say hello to Queen Shen, but heard Xue Shiye say again: "This is the person I want to spend the rest of my life with."
As soon as these words came out, An Lianxi's breath froze and he suddenly turned to look at Xue Shiye.
Xue Shiye seemed to be aware of it, and his dark eyes were focused on him. His eyes were full of An Lianxi's figure, as if there was only room for him and no room for anyone else.
An Lianxi was stunned when he heard him say: "My dear, say hello to the Queen Mother."
Following his words, An Lianxi unconsciously shouted to the tablet: "Mother."
But Xue Shiye's words just now were still echoing in his mind.
'Someone you want to spend the rest of your life with'.
He is the person Xue Shiye wants to spend the rest of his life with.
Just thinking of these words, my heart felt like an electric current, flowing directly to my limbs and bones, and my heart seemed to be paralyzed for a moment. Immediately afterwards, there was uncontrollable throbbing.
An Lianxi could no longer hear clearly what Xue Shiye said to Queen Shen later, and his ears were filled with the noisy heartbeat.
It's so fast, so fast that it seems like my heart can't bear the load.
An Lianxi couldn't help but cover his heart. His nose was filled with the smell of paper money and incense candles, which made him feel a little stuffy.
However, before An Lianxi could take a deep breath and adjust, he stopped hugging her the next moment.
Xue Shiye held him in his arms and strode out so fast that An Lianxi couldn't react in time.
By the time he spoke, he had already arrived outside the palace. An Lianxi patted him and reminded him, "Don't we still need to worship?"
Xue Shine said: "It's done."
The paper money has been almost burned, and in the past he would not have stayed in Qifeng Palace for a day and a night. Furthermore, Ming Kangdi should also come over later. In the past, the other party would stay here all night after he left.
An Lianxi glanced at the dark palace door, "So fast?"
Xue Shiye said softly and asked him, "Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
Originally he didn't want to bring people over because of this.
Even if the fragrance of flowers is too strong, it will make your heart feel stuffy. How can you smell those paper money scented candles?
An Lianxi didn't expect that Xue Shiye noticed it, leaned into his arms, and exhaled, "It's better now."
Xue Shiye: "Yeah."
He walked out with the person in his arms, and then saw Manager Zhang and his team who were still guarding outside, and his eyes stayed on the latter for a second.
Manager Zhang was shocked, and as soon as his mind turned, he realized that the prince might have guessed the reason why the princess came over, and he observed a few seconds of silence for himself.
But I didn't regret it too much, as the effect was immediate - as soon as the princess entered, the prince came out. There is no need to stay for a long time like before and wait until the palace keys are handed down before returning home.
In this case, it doesn't matter even if you are punished for it.
But what surprised Manager Zhang was that the prince's reward was delivered to his room that night.
Manager Zhang's sighs are all a thing for another day. At the moment, he is following the two masters tremblingly.
After Xue Shiye finished his worship, he didn't stay in the palace for long, and took the carriage back to Prince Qi's Mansion with the person in his arms.
And this move just made An Lianhua lose his mind.
An Lianhua was planning to inform the sixth prince of the news that An Lianxi was in the palace, so that he could show some of his value in front of him. Otherwise, once the use value is lost and the Sixth Prince loses interest in him, An Lianhua will not know what his future end will be.
He had already seen the unknown side of the Sixth Prince. If he made the Sixth Prince dislike him again, he would probably be silenced afterwards.
To a certain extent, An Lianhua guessed Xue Yunqin's thoughts.
However, when he told the other party the news, Xue Yunqin just looked at him with a half-smile, "I'm afraid Lian Hua doesn't know, but now the Third Emperor Brother should have brought the Third Emperor's Wife back to Prince Qi's Mansion."
An Lianhua's face turned pale when he heard this.
An Lianxi went back.
In this way, his news this time can be said to be completely useless. An Lianhua's eyelashes kept trembling. He couldn't imagine what the Sixth Prince would do to him. What he saw before him was the scene when his leg was injured. His leg was lame for a long time before it recovered.
After a long while, Xue Yunqin had enough of admiring An Lianhua's scared expression, and then he asked warmly: "Didn't Lian Hua bring Minister An into the palace with him today? Why didn't he let Minister An come in together?"
An Lianhua originally wanted to come over in advance to report the news to Xue Yunqin, and then talk about bringing his father to see him. He didn't expect that his information would be useless, but An Lianhua couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when the sixth prince said that he was still willing to see his father.
"Yes," An Lianhua calmed down, "I'll call my father in right away."
Xue Yunqin raised his chin and said, "Go."
After An Shouyi entered the palace, Xue Yunqin asked someone to pour him tea. His attitude was as gentle and polite as ever. This greatly reassured An Shouyi and made him less concerned about King Qi's attitude.
Throughout the whole process, An Shouyi was just chatting with the Sixth Prince, but he didn't notice anything strange about An Lianhua.
From beginning to end, An Lianhua didn't dare to say a word.
There seemed to be a fire burning in his heart, causing him to have heart palpitations.
It seemed that he had to find a time quickly to let the Sixth Prince get hold of An Lianxi.
By then, the Sixth Prince will definitely look at him with admiration.
and......
Will King Qi still like a princess with a broken body?
Although I don't know what the sixth prince's plan is, it does not prevent An Lianhua from wanting to discredit An Lianxi. Even if the Sixth Prince doesn't have that intention, he can still make plans.
Of course, the Sixth Prince didn't have that intention, so he could try his best to win over the other party.
As for what happens after catching An Lianxi, it wouldn't be a bad idea to be a little more troublesome.
An Lianxi felt a chill on his back. At this moment, he was lying in Xue Shine's arms, still thinking about how he would celebrate Xue Shine's birthday when he returned.
Otherwise...like your mother, cook him a bowl of longevity noodles.
The chill on his back went straight to the top of his head, An Lian laughed: "Xue Shiye."
Xue Shiye looked down at him, his eyes a little unfocused. The other party has been absent-minded since getting in the car. Now he finally remembered his existence. Hearing this, he spoke slowly: "What's wrong?"
An Lianxi grabbed his collar and said, "I'm cold."
After a pause, Xue Shiye pulled the person closer to his arms, wrapping him up completely. An Lianxi was completely embedded in his arms, but his eyes were still distracted, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Xue Shiye couldn't help but laugh.
She was obviously crying to him before, so good at acting like a baby, and so good at...
Feeling sorry for him.
Xue Shiye sighed lowly and said in his ear: "You were born to defeat me."
An Lianxi felt warmer, the chill on his back slowly dissipated, and he finally calmed down. The voice that came to his ears was deep and slightly hoarse, which made him unconsciously think of what the other party said in Qifeng Palace.
The pinna of the ear was visibly reddened. An Lianxi raised his eyelids and looked at him, "How can I have it?" He knew he was talking nonsense.
He didn't do anything, so how could he be defeated?
Xue Shiye chuckled, "Yes."
Just as An Lianxi was about to retort, someone pinched his ear gently. He immediately reached out to cover it, feeling embarrassed and annoyed, "Don't touch me."
Xue Shiye: "I'm afraid I can't do it."
An Lianxi immediately rolled into the carriage, but as expected, Xue Shiye picked him back up, "You said you would listen to me!"
Xue Shiye was very rogue, "This won't work."
An Lianxi: "Big liar!"
Xue Shiye admitted: "I am a big liar."
An Lianxi couldn't stand him anymore, so he covered his ears and turned around, with his back to Xue Shiye, but he was still held tightly in his arms.
The carriage drove all the way back to Prince Qi's Mansion. An Lianxi started calling people before he even got off the car, "Wen Mu! Wen Mu, come and help me!"
Xue Shiye was left behind again and had to follow the princess towards the palace, his posture could not be described as humble.
Who has ever seen the prince like this? Manager Zhang has never seen him before, so he couldn't help but glance over at him frequently.
Xue Shiye paused and glanced back.
Manager Zhang was slightly stiff and did not dare to look any further.
This time he was not in the palace. An Lianxi and Wen Mu quickly walked towards the bedroom without waiting for Xue Shiye to follow. When Xue Shiye followed, the door happened to slam shut.
With a 'bang', Xue Shiye was locked outside.
This scene stunned all the servants in Xiyuan. They felt that the scene in front of them was unexpected but reasonable.
The prince was locked out, which was unexpected.
But the fact that the prince was shut out by the princess would not surprise anyone at all.
Xue Shiye was a little surprised.
Really angry?
He raised his finger and tapped the door lightly.
An Lianxi's voice came from inside, "You are not allowed to come in."
Xue Shiye paused, "Why?"
An Lianxi: "If you can't tell me, I won't. Why don't you listen to me?"
Xue Shiye was silent for a moment, "Listen."
Then, Xue Shiye went to the study.
All the servants lowered their heads, thinking that they were blind and deaf, seeing and hearing nothing.
An Lianxi listened to the noise outside and asked Wen Mu, "Are you leaving?"
Wenmu looked at his young master's behavior as he pressed against the crack of the door, and was a little curious, "Master, why do you want to lock the prince outside?"
An Lian Xi said "Shh" without looking back, "I'll tell you later."
Wen Mu nodded honestly and stretched his neck, trying to distinguish the movement outside, "It's time to go."
An Lianxi opened the door a crack and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was really no Xue Shiye outside. "Then you stay here and close the door. If Xue Shiye comes over, just say I'm asleep."
Wen Mu was stunned, "Oh... ok."
When he saw An Lianxi opening the door and going out, he quickly asked, "Where are you going, young master?"
An Lianxi: "You will know later. Remember, Xue Shiye is not allowed to enter the house. He said I wouldn't let him in."
Wenmu wrote down what he said, "Okay."
He was used to his young master calling Prince Qi by his first name, and at the same time, he once again set a new record for how much Prince Qi doted on his young master.
If you say you won't let in, you won't let in.
After An Lianxi left the room, he asked his servants to take him to the small kitchen in Xiyuan.
At this moment, everyone in the small kitchen was preparing meals for the two masters. When they saw An Lianxi's appearance, they were all shocked and immediately started to rush. They all saluted and said, "See you, Princess."
An Lianxi glanced at the small kitchen and said, "No need to be polite."
The servants in the small kitchen have never had such close contact with the princess, but everyone has heard about this character from the companions in Xiyuan.
He is a gentle and considerate character, and he is very considerate of servants like them. However, these are all heard from hearsay. At this moment, facing the whole group of people, he can't help but feel a little stiff, for fear of neglecting this person.
The chef in the small kitchen was a middle-aged man with a slightly stout figure. He stepped forward and asked carefully: "Do you have any instructions when the princess comes here?" Being careful in what you say and do is basically something everyone should be familiar with.
An Lianxi nodded and looked at the chef.
The chef's heart was agitated and he was quite at a loss. I went back and forth a few times in my mind and thought: Maybe the princess doesn't like his cooking and wants to drive him away.
Thinking of this, the chef wanted to kneel down on the spot.
As a result, I heard the gentle voice in front of me slowly saying, "Can you teach me how to make noodles?"
The chef froze in place as he knelt down. Suddenly he forgot the rules and directly met the eyes of the person in front of him.
Everyone else also pricked up their ears.
The princess actually wants to learn how to make noodles!
An Lianxi felt a little embarrassed when facing the chef's incredulous look, "I don't know how to make noodles, but I want to make a bowl of longevity noodles."
The chef understood immediately after hearing this.
He is considered an old man in this mansion. Today is the prince's birthday, and the princess is making longevity noodles.
While the chef was thinking, he heard the princess in front of him who looked like a fairy and was very polite ask again, "Is it okay?"
"Okay! Don't worry, Princess, I'll keep it with you!"
An Lian raised his eyes and said, "Thank you."
The chef was stunned, and the other servants were also stunned, thinking that the princess was really gentle, and she treated servants like them so seriously.
Suddenly, the chef was so enthusiastic about teaching his disciples that he wanted to perform a performance on the spot so that the princess could cook delicious longevity noodles.
An Lianxi was messing around in the kitchen for a long time. In the middle of the process, he didn't forget to get a small face towel and cover his mouth and nose to prevent the flour from being sucked in and causing discomfort. He also thought that he had to hurry up, otherwise Xue Shiye would go back to find him.
Xue Shiye did come to look for someone, he just wanted to remind An Lianxi to eat.
In the room where there was only one person, Wenmu hesitated and said: "Wang, Wangye, the young master has gone to bed."
Xue Shiye raised his eyebrows, "Really?"
Wen Mu didn't dare to say anything, and he didn't dare to deceive this person.
Xue Shiye did not stay here anymore, but summoned the secret guards.
After a moment, Xue Shiye's figure appeared outside the small kitchen. The servants who were waiting outside to peek at the princess were immediately silent when they saw the prince appear.
Xue Shiye followed the inside of the small kitchen and caught a glimpse of the busy figure in the kitchen. His eyes condensed and his heart palpitated, as if something was about to break out of the ground.
In the kitchen, the chef looked at An Lianxi with great satisfaction, "I succeeded in kneading the dough for the first time. The princess is really talented."
An Lianxi raised his eyes to look at the chef, his clear eyes seemed to be filled with light, and he was very happy to be praised, "Really?"
The chef was about to respond when he suddenly saw a figure outside the small kitchen and then paused.
An Lianxi looked at the chef who was suddenly stunned, then looked outside, and happened to meet Xue Shiye's eyes looking at him.
There seemed to be sparks hidden in his fiery eyes.
Why is Xue Shiye here?
An Lianxi suddenly panicked, and the chef quietly walked to the back door and exited the small kitchen.
Xue Shiye walked in slowly.
An Lianxi looked at him blankly.
Xue Shiye came closer, raised his finger and touched his forehead lightly, brushed off the powder on it, and asked softly: "Didn't you fall asleep?"
An Lianxi's face heated up, "Why are you here?" Wen Mu was really unreliable.
Xue Shiye looked at the reconciled noodles on the chopping board. He couldn't tell what he felt in his heart, as if he was filled with something in an instant, and a little person named An Lianxi was put into it.
"You lied to me too."
Xue Shi Ye's voice was low.
An Lianxi couldn't refute, his eyelashes trembled wildly, and he didn't dare to look at him.
Pian Xue Shiye still lowered his head slightly, looking up at him almost, "You lied to me, right?"
An Lianxi paused: "Well..."
Xue Shiye: "Little boy is lying."
An Lianxi stopped talking.
Xue Shiye chuckled lightly, "You will be punished for lying."
An Lianxi wanted to say something and defend himself.
The next moment, the veil was lifted.
Warm and soft lips covered it.
Liar! This is kissing!
