Ji Yannuo pursed his lips: "Tomorrow is the emperor's birthday."
The queen mother sent someone to send the imperial brother's treasured items, just to remind him that he was not only burdened with the heavy responsibility of the prince, but also the emperor's brother's life.
Thinking of this, Ji Yannuo snorted inexplicably.
His mother always calculated everything clearly, including people's hearts.
Ye Fuxun felt the sudden change in Ji Yannuo's aura.
It was clear that when the birthday of the late prince was mentioned, the corners of his eyes and brows were filled with warmth, but the next moment, there was frost all over him like a messenger in a dungeon.
Is it because I think of the Queen Mother?
Ye Fuxun secretly guessed, and the Queen Mother's indifferent expression appeared in his mind.
Although she had never been a mother, she couldn't figure out how the Queen Mother was willing to let the seven-year-old Ji Yannuo go to Qi State to be a hostage?
In the book, Ji Yannuo said that she killed the late prince, but what was the reason?
Ye Fuxun didn't dare to ask.
Ji Yannuo was willing to talk about the past, perhaps because Mu Ren had touched him, but definitely not because of her.
Ye Fuxun considers himself to be self-aware.
Ji Yannuo didn't speak anymore. He leaned against the tree trunk and stared leisurely into the void, as if he was trapped in his own world.
The night wind blows slowly, bringing with it the warmer spring days. At night, there is still a slight chill in the mountains and forests.
Ye Fuxun shrank and rubbed against Ji Yannuo's side, leaning against the tree and looking at the night in boredom.
She didn't speak either.
It was so quiet that the two of them seemed to blend into the forest.
For a long time.
Ye Fuxun was awakened by a pain in her forehead. She whispered and covered her forehead. When she opened her eyes, Ji Yannuo had a look of disgust on his face.
"Your Highness." She muttered and sat up straight, then saw Ji Yannuo taking out a handkerchief and wiping it on her shoulders.
"dirty."
Ye Fuxun realized belatedly that Ji Yannuo was talking about her.
Hmm...
It seemed that he had fallen asleep without paying attention just now, and his saliva flowed onto Ji Yannuo's shoulder.
"Your Highness, let me come."
Ye Fuxun grabbed the handkerchief and wiped it randomly. After finishing it, he wiped the corners of his mouth and smiled, "I didn't check for a while. Your Highness has a broad mind and will not care about such trivial matters with me, right?"
After saying that, she held the veil in both hands and returned it to Ji Yannuo.
Ji Yannuo stared at her with disgust, stood up and said, "Go back."
"Yes!" Ye Fuxun had no choice but to put the handkerchief away, thinking about washing it before returning it to Ji Yannuo, "Your Highness, wait for me."
Ye Fuxun flew to Ji Yannuo's side and took his arm unceremoniously.
Ji Yannuo frowned, shook his arm, and found that Ye Fuxun was like a sticky candy, unable to shake him off at all.
"open."
"No." Ye Fuxun refused.
As the night went on, there were all kinds of strange sounds in the forest. She walked with one step at a time, and she didn't want to be alone in the forest.
"Your Highness, I am timid and scared." Ye Fuxun flattened his mouth and stubbornly hugged Ji Yannuo's arm, "You took care of me when you came, but you can't abandon me when you leave.
"
Ji Yannuo's frown deepened.
When he was going up the mountain, his mind was filled with the imperial brother, and he didn't even notice that Ye Fuxun was holding his arm all the way.
Now being brought up by Ye Fuxun made him inexplicably angry.
But he couldn't get angry.
So, Ye Fuxun hung on Ji Yannuo's arm smoothly and went all the way down the mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, Xu An led a team of people to guard him. Seeing them coming down the mountain, he was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Your Highness."
Ji Yannuo glanced at him, took the horse and jumped up.
Ye Fuxun watched the horse snort, took two steps back, and took a peek at the carriage parked behind the guards.
In fact, she could take a carriage back to the Prince's Mansion.
At least he didn't have to be tossed around on the back of the horse by Ji Yannuo in disgust.
However, the idea is beautiful, and reality teaches her how to behave.
The next moment, she was lifted into the air by Ji Yannuo and mounted on the horse's back. As soon as she sat firmly, the horse seemed to have its own spirituality and ran towards the night with its hooves raised.
"Your Highness, where are we going?"
This is clearly not the way back to the Prince's Mansion.
Ji Yannuo twitched his lips and did not respond to Ye Fuxun's words.
The two of them rode horses and gradually entered the market, arriving at the "first floor in the world" of Yan Kingdom.
Ye Fuxun looked around, very curious about this place.
Ye Fuxun raised his head and looked at the plaque in the center of the big red lantern, and suddenly felt hungry again.
Could it be that Ji Yannuo brought her here for dinner?
Xu An ran quickly and soon led the two of them into a private room: "Your Highness, it's so busy today. This is a private room specially reserved for us."
Ji Yannuo said nothing.
Ye Fuxun followed behind and took a seat. He looked up and found a semi-open private room opposite the door. There were many people inside, and they seemed to be making noise about something.
"Eh? Your Highness, isn't that King Chu?"
Ye Fuxun's sharp eyes happened to see a man in brocade clothes who was as strong as a bear standing in the middle of the crowd. He looked very familiar.
At this moment, the voice of King Chu came over clearly: "What kind of banquet costs ten thousand taels of silver? Are you easy to cheat?"
It’s not the first time that I’ve dined on the first floor of your world and asked your shopkeeper to come over. I just want to have a good discussion today!”
The waiter's feet trembled due to the majestic momentum of King Chu, but he still tried his best to shake his voice: "Your Majesty, the steamed wild large yellow croaker you are having at this table today is worth eight thousand taels."
"Eight, eight thousand taels?" King Chu spat out, pointing to the large plate that had been placed in the middle of the table. The fish on it had been eaten up by a group of men not long after the dish was served.
, "Isn't it just wild fish? Are you bullying me for not eating good fish?"
The various types of fish included in the royal meals in the palace were extraordinary. I have never heard of a fish costing eight thousand taels!
"My lord, I don't know. This wild yellow croaker of yours weighs five kilograms. It is the first time we have purchased the best-looking fish and the most expensive fish since the opening of the No. 1 Building in the World." The waiter said, "
Wild large yellow croaker is extremely rare, and I heard that in recent years there is only one such one that can weigh up to five kilograms."
King Chu:......
If I had known that when the waiter introduced the wild large yellow croaker just now, I should have asked the price before ordering the dish.
Instead of seeing his brothers happy, he placed an order with a wave of his hand.
Now that all the food has been eaten, it is impossible to retort.
Looking at the light price list in my hand, I feel it weighs more than a thousand pounds.
After returning to Prince Chu's Mansion tonight, that tigress in his family will definitely not be able to spare him!
When King Chu thought of this, he couldn't help but feel his heart tremble slightly, and the price list in his hand was so heavy that he could no longer hold it.
Ye Fuxun, who silently walked to the door because he was watching the excitement, upholding the virtue of diligence and thrift, turned to look at Ji Yannuo: "Your Highness, how about we eat at another restaurant?"
It would be bad if Ji Yannuo collapsed after just one meal.
"My guest, don't worry too much."
The person who responded to her was not Ji Yannuo, but the voice coming from the door.
