Chapter 4

Author: I am hopelessly handsome

The East Palace is very large, with towering square walls and gleaming glazed tiles. Rows of palace rooms stand silently within the walls, just like the inhumane indifference of the royal family.

Liu Piaopiao raised her head, and saw that the plaque in the East Palace was simple and old. However, it revealed an unapproachable alienation for no reason. The tall door made people feel smaller and smaller. An overwhelming feeling of oppression came over them. When the wind blew, the bronze wind chimes tinkled.

, attracting attention.

The door was wide open, like a monster's mouth, and all the creatures who walked in had their souls devoured. Then they were put on a thick layer of shackles, and they were no longer alive when they came out.

It’s more like a body. There are layers of bodies. The true face of the most real person can’t easily be seen under these countless layers of disguise.

She watched the prince walk into the East Palace, stepping with his left foot first. Then the entourage filed in, following the prince's footsteps. Everyone's movements were uniform, like puppets with a high degree of coordination. No one would make a wrong step.

, and became the target of public criticism.

Out of a rebellious mentality, Liu Piaopiao stepped forward with her right foot first.

She was completely covered in the footsteps of everyone, and no one could see her little thoughts. She was disrespectful to the East Palace and violated the rules of conduct set by her master, and walked out on her own.

The prince remained silent, as silent as the solemn statue in the ancestral hall. The shadow hung above Liu Piaopiao's head, making her dare not breathe.

It's a pity that Donggong's bruise medicine is much higher-end than ordinary products on the market. As soon as the medicine touched Liu Piaopiao's skin, she started to grit her teeth. Even Liu Piaopiao herself couldn't bear to look at that ugly look.

, not to mention the prince. But Liu Piaopiao couldn't understand why the prince would stand here and watch her apply the medicine. For this reason, she only dared to move her face slightly, for fear of letting the other party see the indecent scene.

From Lu Ji's perspective, Liu Piaopiao's calves were too slender. They seemed to be about the same size as his arms. Maybe all his daughters had such a posture. Huan Huan curled up around Chu Gong's waist, and Liu Fufeng's weak posture was the most attractive.

sought after.

Actually, it's better to be fatter.

Lu Ji thought that Liu Piaopiao's round face should be fleshy. With such a tapered chin, she looked too pitiful like a fox dog.

After showing her teeth and applying the medicine, Liu Piaopiao leaned over and thanked her.

The prince's eyelashes were lowered, covering his delicate eyes. The corners of his lips were slightly curved, making him look less indifferent.

"Why did Miss Fifth secretly go out?"

Logically speaking, people in the Liu Mansion are not allowed to move around freely before the prince leaves. One is to facilitate the prince's needs, and the other is to quickly check the personnel if something happens.

His slender eyes turned, staring at Liu Piaopiao as if searching. A layer of sweat appeared on his thin back in fear.

Liu Piaopian clearly felt that her throat was tight, and she quickly found an excuse, but she heard two gurgling sounds. It was her stomach growling at an inappropriate time, and it was unusually cheerful, one sound louder than the other.

The dark clothes fluttered, and the golden python came to life again. The vertical pupils followed Liu Piaopiao, trying to see her clearly.

"Qiuyue, bring some food."

"promise."

Liu Piaopiao listened and blushed so much that she wanted to bleed.

In her hazy vision, she saw Lu Ji's light pink lips raised in an arc.

It seems that the prince is in a good mood, she thought.

Sure enough, the next second the other party no longer bothered about the reason why she secretly went out, but asked about Zhou Wenqing.

"Does Fifth Miss have anything to do with Zhou Zuo Changshi?"

"No, no, no, Zuo Changshi and I are not familiar with each other."

Liu Piaopiao waved her hands repeatedly. She didn't want Lu Ji to think that she was entangled with Zhou Wenqing. In the final analysis, it was probably because Liu Piaopiao thought that her past entanglement with Zhou Wenqing was extremely embarrassing.

However, Lu Ji didn't seem to want to let her go, and asked again.

"Then why the rush?"

Liu Piaopiao didn't know what to say, so she answered vaguely: "It's too much."

Facing Lu Ji's steady gaze, she couldn't help but feel guilty, so she laughed twice and scratched her head in embarrassment.

She didn't know that within an hour all the entanglements between her and Zhou Wenqing would be investigated clearly and then presented to Lu Ji in detail.

This is probably the privilege of the royal family. People have no secrets in front of them.

There were various exquisite snacks, lotus cakes, and cow cheese on the table. Many things that Liu Piaopiao had never seen before were lined up on the small table, waiting for Liu Piaopiao to come.

She picked up a piece of cheese, and it melted in her mouth. The dense texture wrapped around the tip of her tongue, and the aftertaste was a sweet milky flavor with a hint of orange. Surprised Liu Piaopiao opened her eyes wide, and held up the cheese to the grass.

In front of the branches.

"Hezhi, try it quickly, this is delicious!"

Hezhi lowered his head and took a sip. It was indeed delicious. He and Liu Piaopiao were conquered by the delicious food. It was so delicious that they were speechless.

Qiu Yue also found it funny when she saw it. She was originally Lu Ji's personal maid. She also found it strange to be left here to serve Liu Piaopiao. After all, Lu Ji rarely paid attention to women. Liu Piaopiao was one of the few.

But it's not surprising that the other party is Zhong Shuling's daughter.

The only strange thing is probably that the other party is not a legitimate daughter but a concubine.

After all, they were outside, so Liu Piaopiao still cared about etiquette. She didn't wolf down the food. After the surprise at the first bite, she quickly returned to normal, finished the table of snacks slowly, and then burped.

My belly is round and there is a sweet smell in my throat.

The sun began to set, and Liu Piaopiao suddenly realized that it was time to go back.

From the moment she refused to answer, Lu Ji went out. Although Qiuyue repeatedly stated that the prince did not mean to blame her, Liu Piaopiao was still a little uneasy.

She knew that Lu Ji wouldn't feel distressed for a little person like her, but she had lied after all, and she still felt a little guilty.

After all, the prince is really kind, which is very different from the unkind appearance in the rumors.

Liu Piaopiao bowed to Qiuyue and asked, "Sister Qiuyue, can you take me to say goodbye to His Highness the Crown Prince? It's time for me to go back."

Qiuyue turned around and made a gesture of invitation: "Miss Fifth, come this way."

Lu Ji was feeding tigers in the tiger park at this time. He had hunted a tiger cub the previous autumn. Its front legs were injured and it made it difficult to move, so Lu Ji brought it back. When he was young, he only thought the white tiger was round and cute, like a snow dumpling. Now,

Two years later, although he is still underage, he has become the majesty of the king of beasts. When he roars, he often scares the servants and no one comes close. When feeding, no one except Lu Ji dares to touch him.

At this time, Lu Ji was standing outside the fence, and the white tiger was circling in the garden impatiently. The tiger was looking at it eagerly, not knowing what it wanted to do.

All the slaves were feeling cold, but Lu Ji remained motionless.

Chang Qing advised: "Master, safety is important."

Lu Ji waved his hand and stared straight at the white tiger, stroking his jade ring finger calmly.

"A beast can turn the world upside down."

The white tiger paced for a long time, and suddenly it suddenly lunged towards the fence. Its upright upper body was as tall as a man, and its roar was so deafening that it made people tremble and dare not look back.

Lu Ji frowned, seeming displeased.

If it's not mature after two years of raising it, what's the use of keeping it?

He took the long bow, drew the full moon and was about to shoot it, when suddenly he saw the white tiger put down its paws and whimpered at the halberd in aggrieved manner. He even lay down and turned his belly out, as if he was ready to pick what he wanted.

Lu Ji sneered twice and stroked the tiger's head twice through the fence.

A scream suddenly pierced the sky.

Liu Piaopiao pointed at the huge beast and almost didn't lift it up in one breath.

"Old Tiger!"
