Drunk Bamboo

Hua Qinfeng was dumbfounded and stood there for a moment, without uttering a word.

Then he turned around, picked up the halberd, and began to play with it.

The moves were fierce, and wherever the long spear passed, a shocking strange wind was created.

Xie Yuzhu dodged backwards, feeling that if she stayed any longer, Hua Qinfeng would use his halberd to cut her hair.

Did I say something he didn't want to hear again?

Xie Yuzhu planned to reflect on herself when she returned. She couldn't be so confident just because Hua Qinfeng favored her a little. She had to be careful when talking to him.

Where is there absolute fairness?

In this era, people are divided into high and low classes. Hua Qinfeng is unique in the world for being able to do this.

It's just that our expectations of him are too high. It is impossible to expect him to have the same concept of equality as modern people.

For Xie Yuzhu, the freedom and respect Hua Qinfeng gave her were already the best, not to mention the kindness of other people in the palace.

She is already content, and the next step is how to maintain this state.

Xie Yuzhu: Just hold him in your arms!

That night, Hua Qinfeng returned to Changfeng Courtyard very late, and Xie Yuzhu was already lying in bed.

After he finished washing up, he lay quietly on the edge of the bed, an arm's length away from her.

Xie Yuzhu had her back to him, and she always felt like someone was staring at her.

When she turned around, Hua Qinfeng was lying with his eyes closed, seemingly asleep.

She closed her eyes and fell asleep unknowingly.

After she fell asleep with steady breathing, Hua Qinfeng opened his dark eyes and stared at her peaceful sleeping face for a long time.

The next morning, when she woke up, she still hadn't seen Hua Qinfeng returning from court.

Xie Yuzhu sighed slightly: "Ah... I haven't eaten Wang Po's tofu pudding for a long time. Hua Qinfeng, it really can't stand the praise."

When it was almost noon, Yunling dressed her up carefully.

For the Liushang Qushui Banquet in the palace, the clothes and headdresses were very formal.

After all, she was going to enter the palace and meet the most distinguished and prominent figures in the country, so she couldn't be too casual.

Yunling tied her hair up, put on a gold-dotted emerald orchid hairpin, matched it with earrings of the same style, and also wore a jade bracelet on her hand.

She wore a moon-white stand-up collar long skirt with a long jacket embroidered with orchid patterns. The fabric was smooth and textured, and she looked noble and steady.

When the time came, she walked to the gate by herself.

Hua Qinfeng was already standing outside the door. He was stunned for a moment when he saw her outfit and did not go up to talk to her.

"The princess is dressed so beautifully today!" Bai Guo's eyes sparkled as he stared at her, then looked behind her, "Isn't Yunling going to the palace with us? Why isn't she coming out?"

"Yunling said she wanted to take care of Fourth Miss Xiao, so she won't go into the palace with us. There's no one in the mansion to take care of her. I feel more at ease if Yunling stays with me since we're not here. You can just stay with me."

"it is good!"

In front of the carriage, Hua Qinfeng stretched out his hand.

Xie Yuzhu looked at it and raised his hand.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Hua Qinfeng just responded lightly and followed her into the car.

"Bai Guo." Chaoyang called her.

"What?" The car curtain has not been lifted yet.

"Let the prince and princess stay a little longer."

"Oh." Bai Guo responded and sat outside with him. "The prince and the princess sleep together every day. Do you think there will be a baby in the mansion soon?"

"What do you, an unmarried girl, think about all day long?" Chaoyang drove the carriage towards the palace.

"What's the big deal? Nanny also wants to hold the baby, hehe." Bai Guo said with a smile.

Xie Yuzhu in the carriage heard Bai Guo's words and glanced at Hua Qinfeng, only to see that he had a dark face and pursed his lips in silence.

She looked away and thought to herself: So he doesn't like children, no wonder he's not in a hurry to sleep with her.

From now on, I won’t mention the matter of having offspring in front of him anymore.

Another big thing has been put down.

Meanwhile, in Prince Feng's mansion, Yun Ling was in a state of panic.

"Ms. Xiao, why are you standing so high? It's dangerous, come down quickly!"

Xiao Bingxin stood on the eaves, and Yun Ling was extremely anxious below.

"Don't think I don't know. They all went to the palace for the banquet, leaving me alone in the mansion. I am the fourth daughter of the Xilin Xiao family. Why didn't they take me to the palace with them?"

Yun Ling explained soothingly, "The prince and princess entered the palace at the invitation of His Majesty and the Empress. Miss Xiao escaped from Xilin to Zhongdu without permission. Do you want His Majesty and the Empress to know?"

"The Zheng family has said they want to cancel the engagement, and I will never marry that cripple. Yesterday I secretly heard Brother Feng and the princess's sister-in-law say that today's Liushang Qushui Banquet was set up for Prince Wen's blind date, so I must go!"

As he spoke, a red shadow leaped down and disappeared from Yun Ling's sight.

This scared her.

Exclaimed: "Miss Xiao!"

She hurried to find Lao Liu.

Here, Lao Liu was standing at the gate of the palace, talking to Xia'er, the maidservant of King Wen.

"I'm sorry, the prince and princess' carriage just left not long ago, I'm afraid Prince Wen took an extra detour."

Prince Wen deliberately took a detour to Prince Feng's mansion, intending to enter the palace with Prince Feng, but he unexpectedly missed them.

Xia Er: "Since the prince and princess have already left, I won't disturb them anymore."

Lao Liu: "Okay, take care girl."

As soon as King Wen's men left, Yun Ling hurried forward.

"Uncle Lao Liu, it's bad. Miss Xiao jumped over the wall and escaped from the mansion!"

Lao Liu's face immediately darkened. He put two fingers into his mouth and blew.

"Shh-"

Several figures jumped out from all around the palace.

After Xiao Bingxin jumped out of the palace, she happened to see a gorgeous carriage that looked very familiar.

She knew that the people in the mansion would chase her out soon, so she jumped in through the car window without hesitation.

"Who is it?" Hua Qinming in the car was alarmed.

"King Wen, don't make a sound, it's me." Xiao Bingxin covered his mouth.

"Your Highness." Xia'er heard the noise.

"Xia'er, step back." Hua Qinming ordered.

"Yes."

Xiao Bingxin put down her hand and sat aside quietly.

Hua Qinming didn't laugh: "Why did Fourth Miss Xiao break into my carriage?"

"I... I'm not usually so reckless, I..." Xiao Bingxin grabbed her fingers, saying innocently and embarrassedly.

"Miss Xiao is innocent and lovely, and she is different from the girls in Zhongdu." Hua Qinming suddenly smiled.

She raised her lovely eyes and blinked, "Your Highness is elegant and polite, and only a lady from a noble family is worthy of your Highness. I am a wild girl in Xilin, and Brother Feng doesn't let me go out, fearing that I will get into trouble. Today, I heard that the palace was holding a banquet, and I wanted to see it, so I left the house secretly, and accidentally hid in the prince's carriage."

"Since it is fate, Miss Xiao, please come into the palace with me." Hua Qinming smiled gently.

This was exactly what he wanted, but he didn't expect her to jump into his car by herself.

Xiao Bingxin was overjoyed, and An Nai was excited: "Really?! Your Majesty, you are so kind. I am so happy today!"

"Miss Xiao encountered me twice in times of difficulty. It can be considered fate."

"Yes, it's fate destined by God." His eyes were shining.

"However, Miss Xiao, this may not work. You need to change your identity."

"What identity?"

"Miss Xiao has to temporarily enter the palace as my maid."
