"Thank you, Brother Wangye." Xiaobei blushed when she heard the praise.
"Then what does Yi Xiaobei think the princess consort will do?”Gu Zeyan thought that it would be good for him to test Xiaobei in the future.
"Wangye gege, do you really want me to say it?" Xiaobei stared at Gu Zeyan with her eyes wide open. Seeing him nod, she tilted her head and thought for a moment. Then, she said firmly," I think Brother Qingya is a good person. He would never do such a thing."”
"Then let's see what this king's beloved concubine will do?”Gu Zeyan smiled, and a glint flashed across his eyes. He also wanted to know what his princess consort wanted to do. He said," Baili, pass the meal to the princess consort's elegant residence."”
When Gu Zeyan returned to the room, the servants behind him had already served the dishes one by one. He pulled Xiao Qingya to sit at the dining table and served him the dishes.
"Come, father-in-law, try this.”After Gu Zeyan served Xiao Qingya, he picked up some food for Xiao Ruojun.
"Come, beloved consort, try this. Is it to your liking?”Gu Zeyan picked up another dish and placed it in Xiao Qingya's bowl.
While Gu Zeyan was serving Xiao Qingya, Xiao Qingya would occasionally put food into Gu Zeyan's bowl. Although the two of them were just putting on an act, Xiao Ruojun felt that they were in love. It made him feel that he had to control Xiao Qingya so that he could control Gu Zeyan better. Other than Xiao Qingya who was still frowning, they all enjoyed the meal. Xiao Ruojun was about to return to his residence after eating.
"I'll send you off." Xiao Qingya wanted to get up but was stopped by Feng Shang.
"Young Master, let me send Old Master off." Feng Shang was somewhat dissatisfied with Xiao Ruojun, but he did not want Xiao Qingya to be used by him.
"Yes, yes. Let Feng Shang send me off. You and His Highness can catch up. Meng Jun will wait on you at the side.”Xiao Ruojun winked at Meng Jun.
"King, let me make you a cup of tea.”Seeing that Meng Jun had no intention of leaving, Xiao Qingya could only stand up and make tea for Gu Zeyan. Then, she deliberately put the contents of the box into the teacup for Meng Jun to see. He brought the cup of tea to Gu Zeyan and said," Zeyan, try the tea I made."”
Gu Zeyan saw everything that happened between the two of them, especially when Xiao Qingya placed the contents of the box into the cup with her back to him. He glanced at Meng Jun without leaving a trace and saw that Meng Jun was staring at Xiao Qingya. He did not take the tea when Xiao Qingya handed it to him.
"Who is it?" Xiao Qingya didn't have any intention of asking him to take it. She just quietly used the small hidden weapons in her left thumb and middle finger to hit the door and window, then turned her head to look outside.
Meng Jun turned his head to look outside when he heard the voice. In the blink of an eye, Xiao Qingya poured the contents of the teacup into the vase. In the blink of an eye, she changed to another teacup and poured tea. When he looked up again, he saw Gu Zeyan looking at him mockingly. Xiao Qingya's eyes flashed with anger, but she immediately calmed down and handed it to Gu Zeyan. Meng Jun saw that there was nothing outside. When she turned around, she saw that Gu Zeyan had already finished the cup of tea.
"Meng Jun won't disturb your highness and wangfei's chat.”Meng Jun said when he saw that the mission had been completed.
"Aren't you afraid that father-in-law will be sad?”Gu Zeyan asked when he saw that Meng Jun had left.
"I will naturally do what I promised.”After Xiao Qingya finished speaking, she was about to return to her small courtyard.
"Haha…Beloved Consort, you're right." Gu Zeyan laughed without caring about his image. He looked at his beloved concubine who was about to walk out of the door and asked," Beloved concubine, is there nothing you want to say?”
"He wants us to go to Jiangnan for a while.”Xiao Qingya turned back and told him the truth.
"What do you think?" Gu Zeyan raised his eyebrows.
"I didn't want to go, but father gave me the Hearing Gu, so I knew that you and I had to go. Moreover, there was a possibility that we might not return.”Xiao Qingya's eyes were filled with sorrow. She was sad about herself. It turned out that her birth was used by her father.
"Oh? Then what does my beloved consort mean?" Gu Zeyan could not bear to see the sadness in his eyes, so he suppressed the unbearable feeling in his heart and continued to ask.
"Since you want us to go on a trip, we will go. If there is any danger along the way, I will protect you with my life.”Xiao Qingya knew that this was her father's masterpiece, but she didn't want to see his highness die because of her father. She would just treat it as him accumulating merit for her father.
"Then, Beloved Consort, who do you think I will bring along that won't be too conspicuous?”Gu Zeyan was a little touched by his words of protecting him with his life, but then he thought that he might have done this for his father, and the feeling in his heart instantly disappeared.
"Just bring Butler Baili, Feng Shang, Shui Shi and Xiaobei.”Xiao Qingya poured a cup of tea for herself and spoke her mind.
"Don't you think it's too little?" Gu Zeyan was a little surprised because Xiao Qingya's plan was exactly what he had thought of.
"Just right." Xiao Qingya looked up at Gu Zeyan.
"How so?" Gu Zeyan admitted that he was definitely making things difficult for him on purpose.
"Butler Baili's martial arts are not bad, and he's good at arranging everything. Feng Shang is my study companion, so naturally, I will bring him along. Shui Shi is your secret guard, so no one will recognize him. Thus, outsiders will not know how good Shui Shi's martial arts are, and they will not act rashly. Besides, Xiaobei is a cute child. With him around, people will believe that we are on a trip. He should also see the world and broaden his horizons so that he can be used by His Highness in the future.”Xiao Qingya analyzed the situation clearly.
"In that case, I will listen to my beloved consort." Gu Zeyan rested his chin on his hand and lowered his eyes to think.
"When does Your Highness plan to depart?" Xiao Qingya asked.
"Then let's set it for the day after tomorrow.”Gu Zeyan saw that they had finished talking about serious matters and was in the mood to tease Xiao Qingya again. He walked to Xiao Qingya's side, hugged him in his arms, and kissed his earlobe. Seeing that his earlobe had turned red, he couldn't help but laugh." Beloved Consort, since you have nothing to do this afternoon, why don't we-"
"Your Highness!" Xiao Qingya broke free from Gu Zeyan's embrace and calmed his slightly agitated emotions. She said calmly again," If Your Highness has nothing to do, that's your business. I still have things to do. Goodbye."”
"Young Master." Feng Shang saw that Xiao Qingya was somewhat emotionally unstable, so he turned his head and glared fiercely at Gu Zeyan in the room. Only then did he quickly follow Xiao Qingya back to Qingya Residence.
"Hehe, interesting, truly interesting.”Gu Zeyan looked at the two of them who had walked away and continued," Did you all hear that?”
"Yes, Your Highness." Shui Shi replied.
"Wangye gege, I guessed right, is there a reward?”Xiaobei asked lovingly.
"Reward?" Gu Zeyan swept his gaze over Xiaobei." Baili, give me my exquisite jade pendant."”
" Your Highness, this…" Baili Qingkong was a little hesitant. This was once His Highness 'most precious jade pendant. How could he give it away just like that?
"Hand it over." Gu Zeyan reprimanded.
"Yes." Baili Qingkong returned to the storeroom to retrieve the jade pendant and handed it to Gu Zeyan.
"This is for you." Gu Zeyan handed the jade pendant to Xiaobei.
"Thank you, Your Highness." Xiao Bei was so happy that she couldn't put the jade pendant down.
Xiao Qingya and her servant returned to the Elegant Residence. Xiao Qingya had already calmed down completely. She knew what Feng Shang wanted to say when she saw him hesitating. She glanced at Meng Jun and shook her head.
" Young Master, are you really going to..." Feng Shang also glanced at Meng Jun in the courtyard and fell silent. He didn't say anything else.
"Since Father wants me to go out, how can I not go? And His Highness has already agreed." Xiao Qingya knew what Feng Shang wanted to say, so she took it for him.
"Young Master, has His Highness agreed?" Feng Shang asked with his eyes wide open.
"Mhm, but Your Highness only allows me to bring one person. Otherwise, I will definitely bring Meng Jun along.”Xiao Qingya intentionally glanced at Meng Jun as she spoke, indicating that Feng Shang was speaking to Meng Jun.
"Meng Jun, while we're out, you should go back to the manor to help Father. What do you think?”Although Xiao Qingya's words were for discussion, it was absolutely a commanding tone that could not be refuted.
"It's all up to Young Master." Meng Jun immediately replied.
