After Lu Xiaoxiao fell into a deep sleep, Xie Xi carefully held her in his arms.
The candle in the room burned continuously all night long.
Bai Zhi and Chen Lu were both waiting outside. Hearing no sound from the room, they glanced at each other quickly and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.
As maids who were considered close to their master, even if their master didn't say it, they all knew that their master and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had never consummated their marriage!
Originally, they were still hoping that their mistress would get pregnant as soon as possible and give birth to a little master sooner, but now it seems...
It seems like the master doesn’t understand anything about the relationship between men and women?
Thinking of this, Bai Zhi and Chen Lu were in a dilemma. After all, they only had a vague understanding of that kind of thing and didn't know much...
Baizhi pulled Chenlu to the other side, away from the door.
She whispered in Chenlu's ear, "I heard that the bookstore has those books. How about I go out of the house tomorrow and take a look at the bookstore?"
Chen Lu was stunned when she heard this. Her cheeks instantly turned red and she stuttered as she spoke: "Are you serious?"
"of course it's true."
Bai Zhi was worried about her master. If her master could give birth to a son for the Crown Prince as soon as possible, the Crown Prince would not forget her master even if the Crown Princess came into the family in the future.
Bai Zhi: "These days, there have been rumors that His Highness is going to marry a Crown Princess. I am also very anxious. Although His Highness treats the master very well now, it is hard to say what will happen if there is a Crown Princess in the mansion in the future."
"The master treats us so well, I don't want him to be treated coldly."
Chen Lu thought about it and felt that what Bai Zhi said made sense. She nodded and said, "Okay, you go to the bookstore tomorrow and I will stay by the master's side to serve him."
Bai Zhi: "Okay."
Mu Qing, who was guarding outside the yard, had sharp hearing. Even though he was some distance away from the two maids, he could still hear their secret conversations.
In an instant, Mu Qing's usually expressionless face suddenly revealed a complicated and shocked expression.
I didn't expect that these two maids would say these things in private!
Mu Qing was silent.
In his opinion, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would never marry a Crown Princess.
What's being spread outside are just rumors.
Prime Minister Luo had said before that he would deal with the rumors in the city as soon as possible, but I don’t know how the matter is going now.
Mu Qing held the sword, looked up at the sky, and suddenly turned and left.
In the pitch-black darkness, I could vaguely see his back gradually going away.
Mu Qing's departure did not alarm Bai Zhi and Chen Lu. After making their decision, they returned to the door and continued to guard it.
Angelica dahurica guards the first half of the night, and morning dew guards the second half of the night.
Chen Lu sat on the ground, leaning against the wall, and fell asleep as soon as she closed her eyes.
Bai Zhi sighed softly.
……
The next morning, when Lu Xiaoxiao woke up, she found that there was no one beside her. She felt thirsty, so she called out, "Bai Zhi?"
Before he finished speaking, Bai Zhi came in from outside, holding a food box in her hand, "Master, are you awake?"
Lu Xiaoxiao sat up while hugging the quilt. She yawned lazily and said in a soft voice, "Bai Zhi, I'm thirsty."
"I will pour water for you right away."
The tea in the teapot on the table was brewed by Baizhi when she went to the kitchen to fetch food. She thought that her master would definitely be thirsty when he woke up.
Bai Zhi poured a cup of tea and handed it to Lu Xiaoxiao, "Master, be careful, it's a little hot."
"it is good."
Lu Xiaoxiao took it, took a sip, and found it was indeed a little hot.
She lowered her head and blew on it a few times, then touched the teacup and felt that the tea had cooled down a little, so she took another sip and barely relieved her thirst.
"Bai Zhi, His Highness left a long time ago?"
Bai Zhi nodded and replied, "His Highness left at about 12:00 a.m., and Guard Mu Qing came in to serve him."
His Highness didn't allow the maids to get close at all, so he could only let Guard Mu Qing in.
Lu Xiaoxiao hummed, "Bai Zhi, what time is it now?"
Bai Zhi: "Master, it's just past the hour of Chen."
Lu Xiaoxin was shocked. No way, it was already past the hour of dawn? ?
She actually slept for so long?
Bai Zhi seemed to have seen through her thoughts and said sincerely, "Master, it's really late now."
The master was sleeping too soundly, and before leaving, His Highness had also reminded her and Chen Lu not to wake the master up.
Angelica dahurica and morning dew are both cautious.
Moreover, after His Highness left, Bai Zhi secretly went out from the side door of the Prince's Mansion and ran to the bookstore to buy the book she wanted.
After hiding the book in her room, Bai Zhi returned to guarding outside the door.
Chen Lu went back to her room to rest.
"It seems that I was really confused in my sleep."
Lu Xiaoxiao rubbed her brows helplessly and couldn't help yawning, "Bai Zhi, go out and get a basin of warm water. I need to wash up."
"Yes, Master, I will go right away."
After saying that, Bai Zhi turned around and left again.
After leaving the room, Bai Zhi ran to call Bai Zhu over, "Bai Zhu, come and comb the master's hair."
Then, Bai Zhi went to bring a basin of warm water.
Bai Zhu soon appeared where Bai Zhi had stood just now, facing the door. Bai Zhu walked into the room and saw his master staring at the mirror in a daze. "Master?"
"Ok?"
Lu Xiaoxiao came back to her senses immediately, turned around, and looked up at Bai Shu who was standing in front of her, "Bai Shu, come here and make a simple bun for me."
"Yes, master."
Bai Zhu walked over, picked up the comb, and gently combed his master's hair.
After her hair was smooth, she quickly tied it into a simple yet feminine bun for her master.
Bai Zhu put down the comb and felt very satisfied: "Okay, Master."
Lu Xiaoxiao: "Bai Shu, you are really clever and deft."
Bai Zhu laughed and said, "I have been learning this since I was a child. It's just a matter of practice makes perfect."
"Well, only Bai Zhu can style such a beautiful bun."
Lu Xiaoxiao looked at herself seriously in the bronze mirror. Although the mirror was blurry, she could still vaguely see the outline.
She was also very satisfied with her outfit today.
After a while, Bai Zhi also came in with warm water and carefully placed it in front of Lu Xiaoxiao: "Master, I am here to help you wash up."
"No need."
Lu Xiaoxiao shifted her gaze away from the bronze mirror. She lowered her head and looked at the warm water that was still rippling on the surface. She took out a handkerchief, put it in the water, then fished it out, wrung it dry, and then wiped her face.
After washing up and having breakfast, Lu Xiaoxiao changed into a light yellow dress.
Taking the box with needles and thread, Lu Xiaoxiao curved her eyes and said in a brisk tone: "Bai Zhi, come with me to Qingshuyuan."
Bai Zhi: "..."
Originally, she wanted to take out the book and let her master take a look at it and learn from it.
But now her master was only thinking about sewing underwear for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so it seemed that she could only find another opportunity to give the book to her master.
