Help! The innocent prince always tries to seduce me clumsily

"I think the opposite of what you think, sir."

Chu Shixuan looked at him quietly and said, "I don't think this is a mistake."

The elder opened his eyes wide in shock. He never expected Chu Shixuan to say that.

If he had insisted on refutation, he would have still been able to say a few words to refute him, but Chu Shixuan refused. In his heart, the elder's idea was wrong from the very beginning.

The usually steady elder panicked when faced with his two sentences, "Your Highness, be careful! This child cannot be helped!"

Chu Shixuan said, "It's getting late, please go back, sir."

"Your Highness..."

"Bixi, show the guest out."

The elder was sent out of the door helplessly. When he reached the door, he let out a long sigh.

When Chu Shixuan arrived at the front room, he saw Chu Shitong eating happily at the table.

Still young indeed.

Chu Shixuan thought this as he looked at her sitting on the chair with her feet unable to reach the ground.

"Is this food to your liking?"

Chu Shitong put down his bowl and chopsticks and said with a smile: "Brother, the food here is really delicious."

Chu Shixuan took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her lips.

"I'll come more often if it tastes good."

“Can I really eat here every day?”

"Ah."

At this time, Chu Shitong thought.

The eldest brother didn't hate her as much as mother said. Maybe mother misunderstood.

She felt like she had found the only person in the world who didn't hate her.

This person was very nice and was willing to give her new clothes and delicious meals and cakes.

……

From that rainy night on, Chu Shitong frequently went in and out of the East School every day.

Chu Shixuan was already very busy at that time. Sometimes he had to study his lessons during the day until the evening. Chu Shitong's school for children did not teach much, so he only had to attend classes for three hours a day and then go back home. Most of the rest of the time was spent in East No. 1.

For some reason, Chu Shitong didn't want Concubine Yun to know about this, so every time he would wait until there was no one in the courtyard and then secretly run through the small path to the East First House to find Chu Shixuan.

No matter how busy Chu Shixuan was, he always had time to talk to her. On several occasions, he even slept in the East Building and shared the same bed with her.

What is lost always comes back in another form.

All the love that Chu Shitong lost was made up by Chu Shixuan.

She could not make a new set of clothes in a year, so Chu Shixuan ordered people to make new clothes for her every season, providing her with the best materials and patterns, from cloaks and coats to shoes, socks and handkerchiefs. In less than half a year, she was wearing all the things he gave her.

Naturally, Yun Xiangrong couldn't keep this matter secret for long.

One afternoon without any warning, Chu Shitong was invited to Luhua Palace after a long absence.

When Yun Xiangrong saw that she was wearing clean and tidy clothes made of material that she had only used a few pieces of, her eyes immediately turned red with hatred and she severely ordered her to be punished.

On a scorching hot day, Chu Shitong knelt in front of Luhua Palace, his small figure looking like it was about to be melted by the strong sun.

After kneeling for more than an hour, Chu Shitong felt dizzy, covered in cold sweats, severely dehydrated, and her face was so pale that it was a little scary, but Yun Xiangrong still refused to let her go.

Finally, her young body couldn't hold on any longer, and she fell to the ground with her eyes black. Even many years later, when she recalled the scene again, she could still feel the burning pain of her cheek hitting the stone slab when she fell.

She didn't know what happened next.

She only remembered that when she woke up, she was in the warm and spacious bedroom of Master Chu in East First Building.

Half of his face was wrapped in gauze and his head felt dizzy.

The first time she saw Chu Shixuan, she burst into tears, raised her arms aggrievedly, and wanted to throw herself into his arms.

"elder brother."

He naturally understood what she meant, so he took the initiative to hug her.

"I am here."

Chu Shitong didn't say anything, just kept crying.

Yun Xiangrong questioned her whether Chu Shixuan knew that she was a woman, and threatened her with the crime of deceiving the emperor. She insisted that Chu Shixuan did not know about this, but she remembered clearly that Chu Shixuan had asked her one day.

At first she denied it, but later she remembered that during their first meeting, she was coaxed by his two sweet words into taking a shower and changing clothes in East No. 1.

Seeing that she did not admit it, Chu Shixuan did not ask any more questions, but just told her to hide it and not let anyone else know.

Since then, Chu Shitong seemed to have a little secret with Chu Shixuan and always stuck to him.

Chu Shixuan, after getting to know her more, could tell that she was a person who was warm on the outside but cold on the inside. She was decisive and resolute, mature at a young age, very cunning, and never got up early for something. She was actually happy to be stuck with him. She didn't have much energy, and she would fall asleep in a daze after playing for a while. Chu Shixuan would hold her and watch over her, waiting for her to wake up.

Since this heat stroke, the people in the East Fifth Institute have been replaced by Chu Shixuan.

Chu Shitong also had a maid named Bishui, who was about the same age as her.

Although Bishui was unable to do many things, she was no longer so lonely as he was always by her side.

Chu Shitong was well taken care of by Chu Shixuan.

A person who was originally thin and skinny gained ten kilograms. He looked to have some flesh on his face and grew taller. His little face became even more beautiful.

It seemed as if Chu Shixuan had poured all his efforts into her, and he picked out the best things for Dongwu Institute. The relationship between the two was so close that it was inevitable that other people would know about it.

The first prince who came to the door on his own initiative was Chu Shitong’s sixth brother, Chu Shifeng.

Chu Shitong has always been a little afraid of his sixth brother.

When she was blocked in the yard by Chu Shifeng and his men, she cried and shouted "Brother" from a distance.

At that time, Chu Shixuan was in the academy and couldn't hear it at all.

Chu Shifeng became annoyed by her crying and picked up a wooden sword to scare her.

"I'll beat you up if you cry again!"

Chu Shitong bit her lip, and after enduring for a few seconds, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

When she cried, Bishui cried too.

Chu Shifeng was at his wits' end, and like a little adult, he angrily said, "Are you still a man? Why do you cry when someone yells at you? You are such a coward! A sissy!"

The more he scolded, the more Chu Shitong cried.

She cried until her voice became hoarse and her beautiful eyes were swollen.

Chu Shifeng was really at his wit's end, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Don't cry, I didn't really beat you up."

Chu Shitong was tired of crying, so he stopped and looked at him eagerly.

"Then will you beat me?"

Chu Shifeng really couldn't stand her spineless appearance, he snorted coldly and said: "I'm different from you, I'm a man, I keep my word, I won't beat you if I say I won't beat you."

"OK then."

Chu Shitong wiped away her tears and took a sip of the clear water beside her.

"Bishui, stop crying. He said he won't beat us."

Bishui sniffed. Both the master and the servant looked extremely pitiful.

"really?"

Chu Shitong glanced at Chu Shifeng uncertainly and said, "It should be true."

Chu Shifeng said unhappily, "What do you mean by should?! I have already said that I will not beat you up, but you keep asking me questions! It is so annoying!"

Both of them didn't dare to speak at the same time. It was obvious that now in East Fifth Institute, Chu Shitong and Bishui were as obedient as if they were living under someone else's roof.

Chu Shifeng walked around the yard, his face full of disdain, and said, "You live in a shabby yard like this? No wonder you want to curry favor with Chu Shixuan every day."

Chu Shitong looked at him with clear eyes: "What does fawning mean?"

Chu Shifeng choked.

Bishui said seriously: "I know that if you stutter when you speak, it is flattery... or stuttering?"

Not to mention Chu Shifeng, even the palace maids beside them looked at the two of them as if they were fools.

Chu Shifeng took a deep breath, thinking that his mother was overthinking. How could a fool like Chu Shitong be his opponent? I'm afraid Chu Shixuan will have a hard time with such a burden.

He was quite happy when he thought of this.

I didn't expect that Chu Shixuan, who is so smart, would be so close to a fool like Chu Shitong.

"Hey, Chu Shitong." he shouted.

Chu Shitong shuddered all over and looked at him timidly.

Chu Shifeng raised his chin high, with a proud look on his face, and said, "Come here."

Chu Shitong took a long time to move forward before he came up to him.

Chu Shifeng said, "Kneel down and let me ride on you like a horse."

Chu Shitong was not angry when he heard this, but asked him.

"But you're so tall, what should I do if I can't carry you?"

"I don't care, just kneel down and let me ride you, or I'll beat you up."

Chu Shitong thought about it and knelt on the ground with grievance.

Chu Shifeng felt extremely satisfied when he saw this. He looked at her eyes that were about to shed tears, thought for a moment, and said, "Since you are obedient, I will forgive you today. Get up."

Chu Shitong raised his eyes to look at him, "You don't want to ride me anymore?"

Chu Shifeng laughed angrily, "What's wrong with you? I told you I'd let you go, but you still want to let me ride you?" He looked at her small head and said, "You'll fall if you really ride on me. I'm not that stupid."

Chu Shitong stood up silently.

A eunuch ran to Chu Shifeng and said happily, "Your Highness, the prefect sent a pair of white-feathered parrots. I heard that they can sing opera. Why don't we go back and take a look now?"

This has aroused the curiosity of many people. There are many parrots that can talk, but there are indeed few that can sing.

Chu Shifeng said proudly: "My grandfather sent it specially, so of course I have to go and take a look."

As he spoke, his eyes inadvertently swept over Chu Shitong.

Chu Shitong seemed very curious as well, but when he met his gaze, he immediately lowered his head honestly.

He said this compassionately, with a certain kind of showing off mentality.

"Hey, Chu Shitong, do you want to see the white-feathered parrot my grandfather gave me? It took my grandfather more than a year to have a trainer train it."

Chu Shitong was somewhat flattered and asked cautiously, "Can I see it, too?"

Chu Shifeng took two steps forward, looked at the clear amber eyes and the pink and white face like lychees, and couldn't help pinching it, saying: "If you beg me and make me happy, maybe I will let you go to see it with me."

Chu Shitong rubbed his face which had turned a little red from being pinched.

"Then I beg you."

"You always beg people like this?" Chu Shifeng raised his eyebrows and said, "Your begging is not sincere at all."

"Then how should I ask?"

"At least say something nice. Ordinary people don't have the chance to see my white-feathered parrot."

Chu Shitong stared at him for a long while, then uttered, "You...you look good."

"..."

It was the first time that Chu Shifeng was praised by someone, but he did not feel happy at all.

There is even a kind of self-doubt that pokes trouble at fools.

"Forget it." He said disdainfully, "If you can't say something nice, just say a few nice words, and that will work, right?"

Chu Shitong imitated his servants and said, "Your Highness the Sixth Prince."

Chu Shifeng was so angry that he could not contain himself.

"You call Chu Shixuan your brother, so when it's my turn, I will be the Sixth Prince, right? Are you doing this on purpose? Do you think I am not as good as Chu Shixuan?"

Chu Shitong didn't know what he had called him wrong. He was frightened by his sudden anger and was at a loss what to do. He kept looking at the clear water beside him.

Bishui's eyes lit up, a foolish light flashed across her face, and she whispered something in her ear. Now Chu Shitong finally felt confident.

She called out, "Sixth Brother."

Chu Shifeng stared at her for a few seconds and his anger subsided a little.

Seeing that it worked, Chu Shitong shouted out all at once: "Sixth Brother, good brother! My sweetheart!"

Chu Shifeng was stunned. When he heard the low laughter from the servants beside him, his face suddenly turned red.

"What are you yelling about?" He was about to explode.

Chu Shitong looked innocent and said, "I'm calling you."

"Who is your good brother? What sweetheart?" Chu Shifeng blushed and scolded, "I am not one!"

Chu Shitong looked at Bishui, "Bishui, did I learn it wrong?"

Bishui was also confused.

"No, I heard my sister-in-law beg her brother to cry like this."

Chu Shifeng finally understood that both the master and the servant were fools.

She is only one year younger than him, how can she be so stupid?

He pointed at Chu Shitong and wanted to curse, but when he met those clear and stupid eyes, the curse stuck in his throat. He wanted to throw something to vent his anger, but after looking around, he found that the house was empty and there was nothing he could throw.

With anger stuck in his chest, he turned around and cursed at the servants behind him.

"How dare you laugh at this prince?! Who laughed just now? Get out here! All of you, get punished!"

After venting his anger with a loud curse, Chu Shifeng turned around and stared at Chu Shitong.

Chu Shitong stepped back guiltily.

Chu Shifeng said, "Since you called it by the right name, I will keep my word and take you to see the white-feathered parrot. Come here quickly."

Chu Shitong didn't expect that Chu Shifeng not only didn't get angry with her, but was also willing to let him see the parrot, so she pulled Bishui and followed.

The two lines of opera sung by the pair of white-feathered parrots amazed Chu Shitong for a long time.

She praised the parrot to the highest heaven without hesitation, calling it "Sixth Brother" all the time, which made Chu Shifeng almost confused. Her absolutely innocent and envious eyes made Chu Shifeng feel extremely satisfied, and before leaving, she even asked someone to give him a black-horned cricket that he had found with great difficulty.

It was also because of this cricket that Chu Shixuan showed his coldness to Chu Shitong for the first time that night.

Chu Shitong happily held up the cricket to show Chu Shixuan.

"Brother, look, this is what my sixth brother gave me!"

She seemed not to notice that Chu Shixuan's face had gradually turned cold, and she was still talking vividly about the pair of white-feathered parrots.

"The pastries and tea at Sixth Brother's place are delicious, too. He's not as fierce as I thought. We talked a lot."

"It seems that Xiaoqi is having a lot of fun at Laoliu's place..."

Just as Chu Shitong was about to nod, someone suddenly pinched his face. The usually gentle and doting eldest brother suddenly seemed like a different person, his eyes were dark and deep, and frighteningly cold.

"It's hard for Xiao Qi to remember me, an old friend."
