But that night, Ning Rongxue did not return to Zhenguo Mansion.
…
Since the palace banquet, Bai Shuang often went to the Chao Palace to find Yan Chao.
Once or twice, Ning Ding'an thought it was nothing.
But once it happened more than once, Ning Ding'an felt that this wasn't enough.
It’s not that he dislikes Yan Chao’s ghost face for breaking his leg.
But Bai Shuang is the prince's fiancée, why is he always looking for the prince?
Over time, it will definitely trigger discussions in the Forbidden City and arouse criticism.
So Ning Ding'an issued a ban on Bai Shuang, banning her from leaving the house for a short period of time.
However, Ning Ding'an spent most of the day going to the Ningjia Army barracks to check on the soldiers' training.
Therefore, Aunt Lang has the final say in Zhenguo Mansion during the day.
Aunt Lang secretly gave an order, asking the guard at the door to pretend that he didn't see the young lady and let her out if she wanted to go out.
Although Aunt Lang is not the mistress of the Zhenguo Mansion, over the years, her rights in the Zhenguo Mansion are better than those of a mistress.
The guards dared not disobey her words.
So, Bai Shuang, who once again disguised herself as a man, went out without encountering any obstruction.
[Master, this Aunt Lang must have ulterior motives for letting you out so easily.] Lazy Man said firmly.
Bai Shuang walked freely with a faint smile on her face, "Of course, she is waiting for an opportunity.
When the time is right, she will publish evidence to prove that I had an affair with Yan Chao.
In this way, Yan Chenyu will break off the engagement with me, and Ning Rongxue will have a chance to get along with Yan Chenyu."
[Ah? That’s not possible. We can’t break off the engagement, and we can’t let Ning Rongxue and Yan Chenyu be together!
Master, please go back as soon as possible, don’t fall into Aunt Lang’s scheme!] The lazy guy was anxious.
Bai Shuang was very calm, "Why not? All these things I did were to break off the engagement.
Breaking off the engagement will not affect the completion of task three.
In order to make Yan Chenyu's true face known to the public, he must first expose his ambitions.
When he is with Ning Rongxue, his ambition to ascend the throne will expand faster.
Because Ning Rongxue is a reborn person, she can give Yan Chenyu a lot of help he wants."
The lazy man suddenly realized, "The master is indeed the master. No matter who has a small thought in his heart, it will not escape your eyes. Everything is under the control of the master."
Bai Shuang disguised herself as a man and went out to look for Yan Chao every day. Aunt Lang saw it and was very happy in her heart.
She now really hoped that Bai Shuang would not come back one night and stay directly at the palace.
She hoped that Bai Shuang could have some practical relationship with Yan Chao.
Then she could take someone there that night to "catch the adulterer" and get irrefutable evidence.
It's a pity that Bai Shuang goes out on time and returns home on time every day.
Every day when Aunt Lang heard the maid coming to report that the young lady was back, she became very angry and itched her teeth.
But Aunt Lang also knows that this kind of thing cannot be rushed.
All she could do was wait.
But she didn't expect this day to come so quickly.
…
On this day, Bai Shuang came to the palace as usual.
The guard at the door already knew her.
When the guard saw Bai Shuang from a distance, he opened the door to the palace.
But Bai Shuang didn't get in.
"Where is your prince? We agreed to go to the market today. Isn't he still up?"
Bai Shuang stood at the door and looked in, waving a jade fan in her hand and smiling coquettishly.
She was dressed in crescent-white men's clothing, her hair was tied up with a jade crown, her face was clear and handsome, and she really looked like a handsome young man from some family.
"Sir, please wait a moment. I still allow my subordinates to make an announcement." The guard bowed his head in salute and turned around after speaking.
"No need, I'm here." The man's deep and cold voice came.
Bai Shuang turned around and saw a man in mysterious clothes and a ghost face pushing a wheelchair.
"My lord, today you are wearing black clothes again, and I am wearing crescent white. Look, our clothes match each other very well, don't they?"
Bai Shuang raised her eyebrows, put away her jade fan, and looked at Yan Chao with a playful look in her eyes.
Yan Chao had long been accustomed to Bai Shuang's way of speaking, and this was not the first day he saw Bai Shuang wearing men's clothing.
But even though he heard this joke many times, Yan Chao still couldn't help but curl his lips.
Ning Baishuang's words were always so interesting, which made him laugh.
Anyway, it is behind the ghost face and no one else can see it.
He doesn't need to pretend.
"Let's go. Don't call me Prince again after you get out." Yan Chao pushed the wheelchair to Bai Shuang's side.
Bai Shuang grabbed the back of the wheelchair and pushed him forward, agreeing readily, "Okay, Prince. Oh no, I should call you, Mr. Yan."
Today is the monthly market, and the streets are extremely lively.
Each small vendor was selling harder than usual.
"Master Yan, do you want to eat candied haws on a stick?"
"Master Yan, look at that mask. It's much prettier than your ghost face. Do you want to change it?"
"Master Yan..."
Bai Shuang's voices kept coming and going, dragging Yan Chao to look around.
But Yan Chao didn't find her noisy at all.
There was a huge crowd of people all around and the sound of hawking was loud.
But those have nothing to do with him.
In his sight, in his world, she was the only one.
After a while, Yan Chao's arms were filled with items and snacks bought by Bai Shuang.
"It's hard for me to hold it. Mr. Yan, you are sitting down. Help me hold it. Isn't it too much?" Bai Shuang bit the candied haws and smiled at Yan Chao.
Yan Chao lowered his eyes and glanced at the objects and snacks stuffed into his arms, with a helpless smile behind his ghostly face.
No matter whether he was in the palace or the palace, no one had ever had such an attitude towards him.
So... vivid and full of life.
This made Yan Chao suddenly realize that he was also a mortal.
Every time he stayed with Bai Shuang, even a man of few words like Yan Chao gradually became more and more tempted to speak.
He wanted to respond to Bai Shuang's words.
He wanted to join Bai Shuang in this ordinary life that could make people feel happy.
But Yan Chao knew that he couldn't.
The more he comes into contact with hoar frost, the more he feels about hoar frost in a way he has never felt before, and the clearer he becomes.
He must not behave out of bounds.
Yan Chao knew very well what he was carrying and what kind of path he was going to take.
It is precisely because he admires Ning Baishuang that he must restrain his heart.
On this road, Ning Baishuang can only be his short-term companion during this peaceful and uneventful period of dormancy.
He can only walk into that dark and dangerous future, which may even be an abyss.
"Master Yan, there seems to be a sideshow vendor in front of you, let's go and take a look!"
Bai Shuang stuffed the uneaten candied haws into her mouth, and without waiting for Yan Chao's consent, she pushed him forward quickly.
People were crowded around the sideshow stall.
Bai Shuang pushed Yan Chao, and the common people saw that Yan Chao's legs and feet were inconvenient, so they all made way for them to go to the front to see.
"Thank you. My brother is not very good at expressing, so I will thank you on his behalf." Bai Shuang started to show off her emotions again, and was almost moved to tears.
Yan Chao couldn't help but smile again.
After meeting Bai Shuang, his smiles obviously increased and his mood became even more comfortable and happy.
"Brother, look, he's going to breathe fire!" After squeezing to the front, Bai Shuang quickly entered the state.
The juggler breathed out a breath of fire, and she applauded eagerly.
He also took out the money from his purse and threw it directly into the center of the field.
"Brother, if I don't have enough money later, you can help me first." Bai Shuang bent down, winked at Yan Chao and stuck out his tongue.
