In half a cup of tea, Cai'er had arrived at Huaixian Pavilion. When she turned around, she found that Mingyi hadn't arrived yet. She couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips, feeling slightly proud.
With a flick of her skirt sleeves, Cai'er strode in, wanting to find a good seat to sit down and wait.
The waiter came out to greet her warmly, and put up a towel to block Cai'er's view. But at that moment, she clearly saw a man sitting on the corner of the second floor.
It's him! How could it be?
"Oh, my companion is up there, I can just go find him."
Cai'er pursed her lips. She couldn't imagine how Mingyi could run in front of her silently.
Stepping up gently, Mingyi had already noticed Cai'er, but he just pretended not to notice and continued to drink tea with the cup in hand.
But from the corner of his eye, he kept looking at the person approaching him, suddenly stood up, and flew over with his palm.
Cai'er's reaction was very quick, but Mingyi still grabbed her chest.
"You, you are shameless!"
His face instantly turned pink with embarrassment, but Mingyi still smiled and suddenly raised his feet to catch the tea cup that almost fell to the ground during the fight.
Putting the tea cup back on the table, Ming Yi just smiled.
"I just competed with you and wasted two ingots of silver. Are you a rogue or am I a rogue?"
"Cai'er thought the prince was rich, okay, don't worry about it, don't care about it anymore, I'm going to order some food."
Waving her hand, Cai'er simply sat down and called the waiter up.
But when she kept talking, Mingyi frowned obviously, indicating have you finished eating?
Cai'er chuckled, "Thank you."
After saying that, he started drinking tea.
"By the way, why didn't the palace maid who was following you come today?"
Mingyi suddenly thought that the young lady he saw at the prime minister's residence that day was very similar to a palace maid next to Cai'er, so he couldn't help but blurt out a question.
His body trembled and he frowned.
"Don't get me wrong, I have no interest in her. It's just that I seemed to have seen her in the Prime Minister's residence."
"There's no need to explain." Cai'er suddenly looked away in embarrassment and said softly, "She ran away long ago on the day of the palace change. What? She went to the Prime Minister's Mansion?"
"Oh, I'm not sure about this yet. Maybe I remembered it wrong and I don't quite remember her appearance."
The two asked and answered questions, and after talking for a while, the waiter came up with the dishes.
But there was no room for even one table, so another table was brought in, and the two of them ate around the two tables. It was an exaggeration to death.
For half the morning, the two of them were mostly fooling around, but they were also very happy.
"Your Majesty, thank you for your hospitality these days. Cai'er is going back to the palace, so I won't bother you again in the future."
After walking out of Huaixian Pavilion, Cai'er waved her hand and was about to leave, but Mingyi grabbed her arm.
After thinking for a long time, he finally said it.
"Let me give it to you. After all, you are from a daughter's family."
Cai'er wanted to say something else, but she held it back and nodded.
"I originally planned to go to the night market with my lady during the Lantern Festival." After murmuring, Cai'er looked at the bustling scene on Zhuque Street and thought of the cage-like place in the palace, and couldn't help but feel depressed.
If it weren't for the young lady, she really wouldn't want to stay any longer.
"If you like me, you can..."
Seemingly feeling that what he said was inappropriate, Mingyi took back his words again, "Be careful!"
He held Cai'er in his arms and dodged a galloping horse. Mingyi shouted angrily, but the man had already disappeared.
Nowadays, the princes and nobles in the capital are becoming more and more arrogant. If they ride horses like this on the streets, what if they hurt the common people?
"Are you okay?"
Mingyi put his arm around Cai'er's shoulders and asked gently. Cai'er just shook his head and then lowered his head.
But as soon as he raised his head, his eyes quickly retracted and he tightened his body in fear.
"What's wrong? Are you frightened?"
Ming Yi thought that Cai'er was frightened by the fast horse just now, but Cai'er shook her head and said, "Let's go back quickly."
She quickly pushed Mingyi away and strode away.
Just now, she saw Wu Xin in the alley not far away!
He is actually still staying in the Imperial Capital!
