"Hurry up and leave. Don't break the rules of the wangfu!”Uncle Yu quickly pulled her away.
"Uncle Yu, His Highness isn't as peaceful as you say!”Yun Xuezhi said deliberately.
Uncle Yu heaved a long sigh." His Royal Highness is a very nice person, but this patch of flowers is untouchable. When he gets angry, it's really scary!”
"He can lose his temper too? When?" Yun Xuezhi suddenly became interested.
" One night, His Highness drank a lot of wine and was so drunk that he was unconscious. That night, it rained heavily. Who knew that when he woke up the next morning, he would find that all the purple and gold chrysanthemums had been uprooted by the strong wind…" Uncle Yu gasped." It was too terrifying. I don't want to remember it again!”
"Does he really like Purple Golden Chrysanthemum that much?”Yun Xuezhi was very puzzled.
Uncle Yu shook his head and looked confused." I'm not too sure either. I haven't been in the Prince's mansion for long. When I came, the flowers were already there!”
"Uncle Yu, didn't you watch wangye grow up?”Yun Xuezhi was extremely surprised. In her impression, a person of Murong Xuanyu's status would definitely have someone to take care of him. Usually, if he could become the butler of the Prince's mansion, he would definitely stay by his side for a long time.
Uncle Yu shook his head." I'm also a lonely old man. I was brought back by His Highness when I was begging on the streets…"
Yun Xuezhi was even more surprised. What kind of person was this Murong Xuanyu?
At this moment, a crisp knocking sound came from outside the manor. Yun Xuezhi jogged all the way and opened the door with difficulty.
"Aiya, Brother Xuanyu, it's really difficult to find your residence!”A large palm struck, accurately hitting Yun Xuezhi's chest.
Yun Xuezhi was shocked and quickly turned to the side. The big hand naturally missed. The man in white staggered and almost fell to the ground.
He glared at Yun Xuezhi bitterly and muttered," Why are you hiding? I just want to borrow your shoulder. You're a man. Are you afraid that I'll take advantage of you?”
Only then did Yun Xuezhi remember that she was a man now, so she could only apologize with a smile." I'm sorry for scaring you!”
At this moment, Yun Xuezhi realized that the man in front of her had skin as fair as snow, a pair of bright eyes that sparkled with starlight, a high nose bridge, and pink lips that were as thin as cherry petals. This beautiful appearance made even women feel inferior.
"Is your Wangye in the residence?" The man opened his folding fan and looked around.
" May I know who you are, Young Master?" Uncle Yu rushed over and asked respectfully.
"I am An Yichen, and I am here to visit Murong Wangye!”
An Yichen? Yun Xuezhi unconsciously glanced at him a few more times. Could it be the An family, the head of the four great families in the eastern region? The An family's trading companies were all over the eastern region. It could be said that they controlled the lifeline of the eastern region's wealth.
"Young Master An, please come in!" Uncle Yu bowed and began to lead the way.
An Yichen looked around, and the more he looked, the more he frowned.
"Why are you here?" Murong Xuanyu's face showed displeasure when he saw An Yichen.
An Yichen folded his fan and walked quickly to Murong Xuanyu's side. He said with a smile,""Didn't you say so? As long as I can find where you live, you'll allow me to visit!”
Murong Xuanyu frowned and didn't reply.
"Brother Xuanyu, you're the king of the Eastern Region, why do you live in such a shabby place? Where did all the taxes that the An family pays to the court go?”
"This is none of your business!" Murong Xuanyu said politely.
An Yichen pursed his lips in dissatisfaction." What's wrong with you?" In the past, his whereabouts were uncertain, but at least we could meet and drink happily. But since Wan Xiang Sect…"
"Yichen, shut up!" Murong Xuanyu's face suddenly changed as he shouted in a low voice.
An Yichen was stunned for a moment before he sighed and shook his head." Okay, okay, okay. I won't mention it! I heard that you've taken a fancy to Grand Preceptor Yun's daughter and want to marry her. Is that true?”
Yun Xuezhi looked at Murong Xuanyu nervously, waiting for his answer.
Murong Xuanyu was silent for a moment and did not answer.
Yun Xuezhi's heart fell to the bottom of the valley. As expected, this man didn't keep his word!
"I haven't thought about it yet!" After a while, Murong Xuanyu said softly," This place is not suitable for marriage!”
An Yichen nodded repeatedly with a look of disdain." Which girl would be willing to marry someone in this lousy house of yours? Leave this matter to me. I'll completely repair this mansion and guarantee that you can marry a bride in a grand manner!”
Murong Xuanyu's face darkened and he said coldly,""I, Murong Xuanyu, have not fallen to such a state!”
An Yichen seemed to be stunned and his tone became much more restrained." Brother Xuanyu, don't be angry. I'm doing this for your own good.”
Murong Xuanyu frowned." Yichen, why are you always pestering me?" His Highness the Crown Prince has invited you into the residence time and time again, but you have rejected him every time…"
"You mean Murong Chuyan?" An Yichen shook his head with disdain." I don't want to deal with him!" Besides, he's only interested in the Andersons 'financial resources. I don't want to get involved in the fight!”
Then, he suddenly leaned close to Murong Xuanyu and said pitifully,""Brother Xuanyu, we grew up together. I don't have many friends by my side now. I don't have any requests. I just want to come and drink with you when I have nothing to do and admire the flowers!”
Murong Xuanyu quickly took two steps back and said helplessly,""Up to you!"
An Yichen was extremely happy and bowed repeatedly." Thank you, Brother Xuanyu!”At this moment, his gaze fell on the flowers in front of him.
"Yo, isn't this Purple Golden Chrysanthemum?" An Yichen was shocked.
"When I was young, I only saw it in the Wan Xiang Sect. At that time, I thought that this flower was beautiful, so I secretly plucked one. I even took a few punches from Yu Linglong!”
Hearing this, Yun Xuezhi suddenly became enlightened. So it was him!
This person was the legitimate son of the An family. When he was young, Murong Chuyan had brought him to the Wan Xiang Sect, so they had met once. At that time, he looked like a delicate and pretty girl, but he was very naughty. He didn't expect to meet him again today!
Sensing the change in Murong Xuanyu's expression, An Yichen quickly said,""Alright, alright, alright. I won't mention Wan Xiang Sect anymore!”
The conversation between the two deepened the doubts in Yun Xuezhi's heart.
Why was Murong Xuanyu unwilling to mention Wan Xiang Sect? It seemed like An Yichen knew quite a bit.
"Brother Xuanyu, I'm hungry. Is there anything to eat in the residence?”An Yichen rubbed his belly and looked around.
Hearing this, Uncle Yu quickly whispered to Yun Xuezhi,"Go to the kitchen and take a look. If there's nothing ready-made, prepare something simple for Young Master An!”
"W-what? Let me cook!" Yun Xuezhi almost cried out.
"Hurry up and go!" Uncle Yu pushed her towards the kitchen without any explanation.
Yun Xuezhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She had been studying the Ten Thousand Appearances Treasured Bible wholeheartedly and had never been to the kitchen. Wasn't this making things difficult for her? He should be blamed for saying that he was here to escape. How could a child from a poor family not know how to cook?
Now that things had come to this, he could only bite the bullet.
Yun Xuezhi went to the kitchen and rummaged around. She really couldn't find anything ready-made. She sighed heavily and began to regret her rashness.
" Eggs, flour, onions..." she muttered to herself, desperately thinking about what to do. Forget it, whatever it looks like will be!
After making up her mind, Yun Xuezhi began to work hard. When a plate of steaming egg pancakes appeared in front of An Yichen, he couldn't help but be stunned.
"What, what is this?" he asked uneasily.
"Young Master An, this is the breakfast I made for you!”Yun Xuezhi did not feel embarrassed at all.
Murong Xuanyu looked at the black stuff on the plate. He wanted to laugh, but he held it in and turned his face away.
Uncle Yu seemed to be frightened as well. He quietly pulled Yun Xuezhi to the side and said with a worried expression,"There are so many ingredients in the kitchen. How did you make this for Young Master An? Have you ever done odd jobs?"
Yun Xuezhi stuck out her tongue and did not dare to make a sound.
At this moment, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said with a smile,"Young Master An, this is the only standard of food in our Imperial Residence. His Highness doesn't want you to come here because he's afraid that our Imperial Residence will not provide good hospitality!”
Murong Xuanyu looked at Yun Xuezhi with approval and said faintly,""Now you know why I didn't let you come here!”
An Yichen's face alternated between red and white. He stared at the black paste as if he had made up his mind. He said word by word,"I, I'm not afraid! I'm used to eating these things!"
Yun Xuezhi held back her laughter and handed over her chopsticks at the right time." Then let's invite Young Master An to eat!"”
An Yichen hesitated for a long time before he slowly picked up his chopsticks. He closed his eyes, picked up a large piece of pancake, and put it into his mouth. After chewing a few mouthfuls with difficulty, he suddenly opened his eyes and spat out everything in his mouth.
"No, no, it tastes too bad…Is this something for people to eat?”An Yichen felt so uncomfortable that tears started to flow out of the corners of his eyes.
Murong Xuanyu tried his best to hold back his laughter and said with a serious face,""My residence is indeed at this level. I'm sorry for startling brother Yichen!”
"Brother Xuanyu, I suddenly feel very uncomfortable. I, I should go back first!”An Yichen seemed to feel embarrassed. He quickly stood up and ran out.
"Then I won't keep you!" Murong Xuanyu pretended to be worried.
After An Yichen left, Murong Xuanyu finally couldn't help but laugh. That smile was like the sun shining through the darkness, giving people hope but also making them unable to look away.
Yun Xuezhi stared blankly at Murong Xuanyu, her heart throbbing.
"It seems that you are very suitable to stay in the Xuan Imperial Residence!”Murong Xuanyu said with a pleasant expression.
"Thank you for your praise, Your Highness!" Yun Xuezhi came back to her senses and her face turned red.
"What's your name?" Murong Xuanyu asked seriously.
" I, I'm called…" Yun Xuezhi was speechless.
