I Want to be Alone, Beautifully

When Xu Jiao's wind and cold were almost recovered, her birthday also came.

On her birthday, Yu Ye gave her a very special birthday present——

She took Xu Jiao to the court to listen to politics.

Although Xu Jiao couldn't understand the political affairs presented by many courtiers and Yu Ye's battle with them, but there is no doubt that she can sit here as a prince, which means that Yu Ye tacitly allowed her to enter this center of power.

During the time when Yu Ye was transforming into a cat, those people whose thoughts were wandering in the center were hardly seen in the court hall. Xu Jiao glanced at the standing ministers through the bead curtain, and she could guess that Yu Ye The Jinyiwei Prison that Ye mentioned casually before may now have a new trial prisoner.

When discussing government affairs in the court, she heard the household department talking about a new type of rice that was being researched recently. Xu Jiao almost fell asleep hearing the professional matters of farming, but she knew that this was a major issue of the national economy and the people's livelihood, so she could only pinch it. He braced his legs and cheered up, then couldn't help but quietly looked at Yu Ye next to him, and found that she couldn't tell whether she was sleepy or not at all.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Xu Jiao didn't look at her for too long, so she could only look away, looking at her nose and heart, thinking deeply:

You must protect the heroine yourself.

Otherwise, if Yu Ye dies, wouldn't all these matters be left to her to make decisions?

It's not right, she just wants to practice for a while, and doesn't want to really put the country and responsibility on her shoulders. If there is any mistake in the decision-making, the price will be paid by the lives of the people, which is too heavy.

Thinking of this, Xu Jiao discussed the plot with the system in her mind, the more important one is the plot of the original book, recalling what the hero and heroine did, so as to help Yu Ye avoid some fatal places.

Chatting and chatting, I talked about this first morning morning.

When the court was over, Xu Jiao's butt was almost numb on the hard chair, but Yu Ye still didn't forget to test her: "Your Highness, how do you feel about going to court today?"

Xu Jiao stood up with the help of the servant next to her, supported the crown on her head, and replied in a deep voice: "There are still many things I don't understand, and I need more advice from Lord Yu and the officials."

Yu Ye frowned slightly.

Xu Jiao thought that what she said was not right, and wondered if there was anything that could be corrected in what she said just now, but Yu Ye asked her: "What don't you understand?"

Xu Jiao quickly said: "I don't understand rice planting, I think I should read more books on farmland irrigation."

Yu Ye didn't say anything after hearing this, just stared into her eyes, and when she saw Xu Jiao was cramped, he heard Yu Ye say softly:

"It's all the minutiae."

"As a high-ranking person, His Highness knows how to employ people. He knows that it is enough to leave professional matters to professional people. The art of imperial servants is what the emperor should do. If the emperor needs to study all 360 lines thoroughly, it would be too much. harsh."

Xu Jiao lowered her head and answered her, "Thank you, Lord Yu, for your teaching."

Yu Ye raised his hand to block her chin, preventing her from bowing her head: "Your Highness is a ruler, and I am a subject. No matter whether you are right or wrong, never bow your head to a subject."

Xu Jiao was also surprised by the change in her attitude, but Yu Ye had already withdrawn her hand and changed the subject: "Today is His Highness's birthday, and I promised to take His Highness out for a walk."

Xu Jiao opened her eyes wide: "Today?"

Yu Ye took her to the side hall next to her, and ordered someone to bring in two sets of ordinary business women's clothes. Xu Jiao's suit was pink, with light-colored floral embroidery on the belt, which was very beautifully embroidered. Yu Ye's One set is a gradient dark blue with stars embroidered with silver thread, which is in line with her deep temperament.

When Xu Jiao took the clothes and went behind the screen, Yu Ye had already sent all the servants out, so that when Xu Jiao poked her head to ask the people around her how to tie the clothes, she found that she and Yu Ye were the only ones in the room. Ye two people.

Yu Ye's belt had already been loosened, and his outer shirt had also been loosened. Sensing Xu Jiao's gaze, he raised his eyebrows and asked:

"how?"

Xu Jiao groaned, and raised the shirt in her hand: "I... don't know how to tie this belt."

But she didn't want to cause trouble for Yu Ye, so she just said, "After Master Yu is finished, just call Lan Yan in for me."

After she finished speaking, she retracted her head behind the screen.

……

In the end, I waited and waited, only to wait until a blue figure circled behind the screen——

Xu Jiao looked at Yu Ye who was walking in front of her in a daze, and raised her head to look at her: "Master Yu?"

Yu Ye looked very calm: "Come and help you change your clothes."

Xu Jiao: "...?!"

You are a majestic regent, but you don't have to treat yourself as a palace man.

She showed a flattered expression and wanted to refuse, but Yu Ye had already raised his hand and pulled off the belt of the prince's coat on her body, Xu Jiao still held another set of clothes in her hand, it's okay to let go of it for a while, It's not right to continue to let Yu Ye take off his clothes.

In the end, she could only take a step back, and quickly said, "Master Yu, such a trivial matter as changing clothes—"

Yu Ye pulled the corner of his lower lip with a smile on his face, looked down at her and said, "Why are you nervous?"

"With this expression, those who don't know think that I plan to force you."

Xu Jiao's first reaction was to think that there was something wrong with her ears.

After that, this sentence is quite familiar.

Xu Jiao has a good memory, and almost instantly remembered what she had said to the little white cat who had lost all martial arts and let Rua pinch her.

She took a breath and looked at Yu Ye who didn't intend to cover up the little vest at all. The breath couldn't go up or down her throat. After a long while, she could only show a smirk and said to Yu Ye:

"Master Yu's joke is not very funny."

Seeing her expression, Yu Ye responded with an indifferent "Yes", and then said, "Extend your hand."

Xu Jiao listened subconsciously.

When he raised his hand, Yu Ye took off the coat on her body, took the clothes in her hand, changed the coat for her, raised his hand through her waist, and adjusted the belt and girdle Okay, squat down and help her change clothes.

Maybe it's because it's not the kind of material that serves people after all. Although Yu Ye was skillful in his movements when helping her change clothes, when his fingertips passed through her waist, he would always touch her indistinctly. So itchy up and down...

Xu Jiao could only take a deep breath to suppress all her feelings.

After Yu Ye changed the clothes for her and prepared the fox fur and cloak for going out, he made sure that the boots Xu Jiao was wearing were warm enough, put on the rabbit fur gloves, and finally stuffed her with a hand warmer, Mrs. Tang. Seeing that Yu Ye took the initiative to retreat a little more, Xu Jiao couldn't suspect that she had bad intentions, and only regarded those as Yu Ye's unskilled service skills.

……

After changing their clothes, the two of them went out through the side palace gate in a hidden carriage.

The capital of Dayan is still very prosperous.

Perhaps because the previous emperors were more brutal, the people of the Yan Kingdom seem to have suddenly realized the true meaning of life and death. To the extreme.

It seems that I don't know if I can see the sun of tomorrow.

Seeing that Xu Jiao's eyes were always turning around those red-light districts and wine shops, Yu Ye frowned, ignoring the palace guards pretending to be servants behind him, raised his hand to cover Xu Jiao's eyes and said:

"Don't look at those places."

But Xu Jiao pushed her palm away: "Why don't you read it? This is also a part of the people's life. Those in power must be able to see the most authentic part of the people's sentiments, so as not to be deceived by those who convey it."

Yu Ye had no choice but to take the next best thing: "Dian... you can just look outside, don't be too curious, it's not a good place."

Xu Jiao nodded: "I know."

Yu Ye wanted to divert her attention, and happened to see a famous wine shop by the side of the road, so he brought Xu Jiao in, but Xu Jiao's eyes were attracted by the flowers beside the road, the flowers were all fresh, The blooming is gorgeous and grand, just like the vigorous vitality that blossoms out of the singing, swallows and dancing, and the drunkenness.

She subconsciously grabbed Yu Ye:

"Yu—"

The word "adult" stuck in his throat.

Thinking of her identity needing to be concealed, Xu Jiao changed her tune and said, "Sister, wait a minute."

Yu Ye was suffocated by this address, a smile appeared in his eyes, and he said to her: "What did you call me just now? Call me again..."

Looking in the direction where Xu Jiao was, she continued, "I'll buy all the flowers for you."

Xu Jiao: "..."

She doesn't want to spend.

Hearing Yu Ye's words, she turned her eyes away pretending to have nothing to do, and took the initiative to follow the waiter upstairs. When she heard the name of the dish reported by the other party, she didn't hesitate, and just said: "Choose some of your signature dishes. Just send it up for two."

Yu Ye let her make the decision without commenting, and even took the initiative to fill Xu Jiao's cup with tea.

At that time Xu Jiao thought she was just joking when she asked herself to call her sister.

Then she quickly put this matter behind her, and her attention was on the dishes presented by the restaurant. The first dish was the wind and snow short ribs, grilled pork ribs with plum flavor, sprinkled with The salt grains are used as the background, which has a very artistic conception.

The same is true for the roast duck afterwards.

The dishes in the restaurant are all exquisite, and compared with the palace, there is a different flavor in it.

Xu Jiao ate to her heart's content, and wanted to walk around the street more, but Yu Ye had already estimated the time so that she would not let her blow the wind for too long: "If you like, I will take you out often in the future, and Yuanxiao can also bring you You came out to watch the lanterns, but you have to go back today."

"If you are disobedient, I won't take you out in the future."

Someone who heard their conversation thought it was the elder sister who was teaching her disobedient younger sister a lesson.

Xu Jiao thought of her own physique, nodded helplessly and said, "It's a deal."

She obediently followed Yu Ye back to the palace. Before entering the palace, she was stuffed with a bunch of rock candied strawberries. Perhaps seeing that she was not interested in candied haws, Yu Ye deliberately replaced it with strawberries when she reached out.

Xu Jiao was so energetic in the carriage now, no matter how careful she gnawed, the corners of her lips were stained with sugar.

Yu Ye casually wiped away the marks on her lips.

Xu Jiao froze for a moment, then looked up at her——

She found that Master Yu had been a little weird since the cat turned back into a human.

Could it be that becoming a beast changed some of her brain structure?

Xu Jiao couldn't think of the reason for a while, but Yu Ye withdrew his hand naturally, and said to her: "Today is Your Highness's birthday, I have a gift for you."

Xu Jiao saw her touch a wooden box at hand, it was there when she got into the carriage, but she was not curious, so she didn't ask, she didn't expect it to be a birthday present prepared by Yu Ye for herself.

In her eyes, Yu Ye casually opened the box with Yubai's fingertips, inside was a...

Very delicate, with openwork gold patterns.

bell.

Xu Jiao: "!"

She didn't even bother to eat strawberries with rock candy, and looked at Yu Ye with wide eyes, forgetting to be polite: "I don't really like fancy things, I appreciate Master Yu's kindness—"

Yu Ye narrowed his eyes and looked over, with a dangerous arc on his lips: "Oh? You don't like it?"

It was a very simple sentence, but Xu Jiao's hairs stood on end.

She moved her lips, subconsciously said: "It depends on the situation..."

Yu Ye smiled better, like a gentle spring breeze, pulling Xu Jiao from the opposite side into his arms, regardless of whether Xu Jiao was willing or not, he showed her the golden bell so that she could see the golden bell. The thin string of the bell whispered in her ear:

"If you like it, I'll let you choose a place to wear it."

"If you don't like it..."

She draws out her voice.

Xu Jiao held her breath.

Immediately, the second half of Yu Ye's sentence floated over slowly with a little regret: "If you don't like it, the minister who is too sad can only hang this in the place I like according to my own mind."

Xu Jiao swallowed her saliva, and tried to ask: "What is Master Yu's favorite place?"

Yu Ye smiled, brushed the tip of her right finger across her leg, and said in a low voice, "The gold thread of this bell is very thin, so it's easy to pass through flowers everywhere, right?"

Xu Jiao almost stood up and hit her head on the roof of the carriage!

absurd!

Dirty!

presumptuous!

abnormal!

A series of words flashed through her mind, but in the end she was held in place by Yu Ye who sensed her thoughts. She took a deep breath and hammered Yu Ye thousands of times in her heart. At the same time, she secretly thought that she shouldn't save this You bastard, it would be nice to let her be a dog!

Spicy chicken heroine!

Seeing that she was really frightened, Yu Ye couldn't help but shook his head, picked out another beautiful ribbon from the box next to it, threaded the thin gold thread through the ribbon, and weaved it together, then whispered:

"Okay, to scare you."

"Don't be afraid, I will give you foot accessories, wear them if you like them, and forget them if you don't like them."

Xu Jiao looked at her suspiciously.

Seeing Yu Ye showing her snow-white teeth again: "Anyway, you're still so young, aren't you?"

Xu Jiao: "..."

Does it mean that when you grow up, you can do anything wrong?

She didn't say a word, like a silent protest, she didn't expect to be threatened by Yu Ye on her birthday, and was about to say something, when Yu Ye seemed to be complaining, and said to her as if reminding her:

"I remember His Highness had a cat before, and he liked to hang bells on the cat. At that time, His Highness didn't seem to ask the cat if he liked it, huh?"

Xu Jiao: "..." Cheapskate, I really hold a grudge.

She endured the humiliation and pulled back her skirt, and said to Yu Ye, "Thank you, Mr. Yu, for the birthday present. I like it very much."

Yu Ye smiled with satisfaction: "I think so."

At the same time, she grabbed Xu Jiao's feet and hung up the golden bell for her. Xu Jiao found that the bell was hollow, and it didn't make any sound as she moved, so she let her toss it with peace of mind.

Unexpectedly, Yu Ye even touched the slender bones of her ankle, measured the width of her ankle, and sighed faintly:

"It's still too thin."

Listening to her words, Xu Jiao was inexplicably frightened, and always felt that she seemed to be lamenting that she was a little careless.

She turned her head to look at the dark sky outside the window, and silently recited her birthday wish for this year:

Slow down, slow down—

After all, she seemed to be being targeted by a beast!
