The figure was startled again. He knew that he could not hide anymore. He held onto the pillar and limped out. Nalan Youyou heard the voice behind her. She clenched her fists and pursed her red lips. His body tensed up.
"Nalan Youyou, the eldest daughter of the Nalan family. It seems that the rumors are false.”
Nalan Youyou was startled by this voice. This voice belonged to Beiming Zhe.
Beiming Zhe, the Crown Prince of the Heavenly Dynasty, was gentle and elegant by nature. However, as Nalan Youyou, who had already died once, she knew that Beiming Zhe and Beiming Gu were the same kind of people. They were both extremely black-bellied people. Why would this person appear in the Nalan Residence?
It seemed that after he came back to life, his personality had changed greatly. Even these things had changed. However, it had to change.
"So it's His Highness the Crown Prince. This official's daughter was rude, please forgive me, His Highness the Crown Prince.”
Nalan Youyou immediately stood up and knelt down to apologize.
Beiming Zhe's body seemed to have some serious injuries. With every step he took, his brows could not help but shrink, trying his best to endure. He slowly walked to the table and sat down.
"This prince came uninvited, please don't take offense, Eldest Miss Nalan.”Beiming Zhe's hand supported Nalan Youyou, indicating for her to stand up.
Beiming Zhe did not expect that not only did he hide in the Nalan Manor, he even hid in the Nalan Manor's Eldest Miss's boudoir. If not for his injuries, he would have left long before Nalan Youyou discovered him.
When Nalan Youyou saw Beiming Zhe walking over, she could smell an even stronger smell of blood than when she was at the door. She understood that he was probably seriously injured and had hidden in the Nalan Residence.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, this subject's daughter is taking the medicine for the Crown Prince, please wait a moment.”
Her manners were impeccable, unlike the Crown Prince who lived in the palace. Her manners towards Nalan Youyou were also impeccable.
"Yes." Beiming Zhe nodded. He didn't want to talk now. He had already exhausted all his strength during the escape. If Nalan Youyou hadn't threatened him with the guards of the Nalan Residence, he probably wouldn't have even bothered to move.
Nalan Youyou turned around and rummaged through the dressing table. After a while, she took out a small box and carried it in front of Beiming Zhe." I don't have many herbs here. I don't know if there are any suitable ones."”
Beiming Zhe did not answer. He just lowered his head and rummaged through the box. After a moment, he took out two porcelain bottles and said," These two will do." As for the rest, take them away."
Nalan Youyou took the things away and sat in front of Beiming Zhe. She drank tea leisurely and ignored Beiming Zhe, who was having difficulty applying the medicine.
Beiming Zhe tried a few times but was unable to apply the medicine properly. He could not help but look at Nalan Youyou and said," Eldest Miss Nalan, can you do this prince a favor?”
"No." Nalan Youyou shook her head and refused without thinking, making Beiming Zhe choke on the words that were about to come out of his mouth and swallow them down.
Beiming Zhe saw that Nalan Youyou did not want to help him. He had no other choice. After all, Nalan Youyou was still an unmarried lady. This favor was indeed a little difficult for him. However, he was surprised that Nalan Youyou had already thought of what he wanted her to help him with before he even said it. Such intelligence was indeed inconsistent with the rumors.
Beiming Zhe had no choice but to apply the medicine himself with difficulty.
"Wait a minute." Seeing this, he hurriedly shouted. Beiming Zhe was stunned. He thought that Nalan Youyou wanted to help him. A hint of joy flashed in his eyes.
Unexpectedly, after Nalan Youyou called out to him, she went straight into a few rooms. A moment later, she took out a few pieces of paper and placed them in front of Beiming Zhe. She said," Your Highness, my daughter has not married yet. If people find out that I have hidden a man in my room, even if it's Your Highness, it will damage my daughter's reputation."”
Nalan Youyou looked at Beiming Zhe as she spoke. She paused for a moment and said," These papers are to ask Your Highness not to let the powder scatter on the ground when you apply the medicine.”
Beiming Zhe was startled, his expression changed slightly, a flash of anger disappeared, so fast that even he himself did not notice.
"In that case, this prince understands." Beiming Zhe spoke again, his voice a few degrees colder.
Nalan Youyou turned a deaf ear and turned around to enter the inner room. She pulled down the curtain, leaving the space in front of her to Beiming Zhe.
"Miss, Second Madam is here."
Nalan Youyou had just sat down and had yet to sit properly when she heard Yuejun's anxious voice coming from outside the door.
Nalan Youyou was stunned and her face darkened. Zhuang Huaijin had to come at this time of all times! It was really a troublesome matter.
Nalan Youyou walked out quickly and looked at Beiming Zhe, who had put down the medicine. His expression changed slightly.
"Stop her outside!" Beiming Zhe looked at Nalan Youyou and ordered.
Nalan Youyou looked at Beiming Zhe. The wounds on his body were both old and new, and they were terrifying. He couldn't help but look away and say," Go inside."”
After he finished speaking, he looked at Beiming Zhe with an expression that said," If you want to be safe, listen to me."
Beiming Zhe was helpless and could only enter. He had no choice. Who asked him to be injured and unable to use his qinggong? Now, he was trapped here.
Beiming Zhe had just hidden himself when Yuejun's voice sounded from outside the door again. She was even more anxious than before as she kept knocking on the door.
"Young miss, young miss, come out quickly. Second madam is bringing second miss to punish Yueyi and the others in the courtyard. Come out and save them."
When Nalan Youyou heard that Nalan Jingjing was among them, she sneered in her heart. So Zhuang Huaijin had come to avenge Nalan Jingjing.
Nalan Youyou opened the door and said," Bring me to take a look."”After saying that, Yuejun led Nalan Youyou into the courtyard. Before she arrived, she heard Zhuang Huaijin's voice in the courtyard.
"How did you take care of the young miss? You really don't have any manners at all!" Zhuang Huaijin sat in the middle of the courtyard. The servants in the Pure Elegance Pavilion knelt in front of her and listened to Zhuang Huaijin's scolding.
Nalan Youyou saw this and stopped in her tracks. She did not walk out immediately. Instead, she stood at the side and watched to see what Zhuang Huaijin would do.
"Look, the tea for Eldest Miss has already turned cold. If Eldest Miss drinks such tea and falls ill, who among you can bear the responsibility!”Zhuang Huaijin shouted as she pointed her bright red nails at the kneeling crowd.
Nalan Youyou raised her eyebrows. Wasn't Zhuang Huaijin here to avenge Nalan Jingjing? Why was he concerned about what tea he was drinking?
Yuejun was also stunned and her heart was filled with doubts. Seeing Nalan Youyou deep in thought, she did not disturb her and stood aside with her mouth closed.
No, because of her mother, Zhuang Huaijin could not sit on the position of Madam. Although she did not hate her to the bone, it was impossible for her to take a liking to him.
What was wrong with Zhuang Huaijin today?
"Second Furen, I didn't know that Second Furen had arrived.”
Nalan Youyou stepped forward and bowed. She then said to Yuejun, who was behind her," Yuejun, why didn't you invite Second Mistress into the house? Why are you sitting in the courtyard?"
Those who know, it's Second Furen who is unwilling to enter my room. Those who don't know, they would think that I've treated Second Furen slowly.”
"Yuejun failed her duty, but Second Furen said she couldn't go in. The courtyard was windy, so she wanted to take a breather in the courtyard.”Yuejun quickly knelt down and apologized before explaining the reason.
When Nalan Youyou heard this, she understood and said," I see. Since that's the case, I'll exempt you from your punishment today."”
"Second Furen, may I know what advice Second Furen has for coming?”Nalan Youyou smiled and said to Zhuang Huaijin.
Zhuang Huaijin sized up Nalan Youyou and secretly thought to herself," This Nalan Youyou is really different from before. This person is really strange. She used to be so weak and let me control her. Now, her wings have actually grown."
However, the older the ginger, the spicier it was.
"Today, I heard from Jingjing that you went to the Drunken Fragrance Pavilion together. However, when I came back, I saw Jingjing return alone. I thought that something had happened to Eldest Miss. I just heard that Eldest Miss had returned, so I specially came over to take a look.”
Zhuang Huaijin smiled gently, like a good wife and mother.
Nalan Youyou smiled. Would Nalan Jingjing not tell Zhuang Huaijin about what happened today? Was Zhuang Huaijin really that kind? This was really novel. Since he was willing, she was willing to accompany him.
"Thank you for your concern, Second Madam. Youyou is doing well.”Nalan Youyou smiled and said," I just came back. I'm a little tired, so I didn't pay my respects to Second Mistress. It's my fault. Please forgive me."”
"What are you talking about, Young Miss?"
Zhuang Huaijin smiled and gestured for Nalan Youyou to sit down." Today, the Old Mistress sent someone to pass a message saying that she would return to the residence in two days. Eldest Young Lady, please don't go out these two days. If you are injured, the Old Mistress will be heartbroken."”
Zhuang Huaijin's words were appropriate and restrained, making people impeccable.
Nalan Youyou's lips curled up. It turned out that the old madam was about to return. I was wondering why Zhuang Huaijin suddenly came over.
"Youyou understands." Nalan Youyou said.
"Very good. Since Young Miss understands, I'll leave first.”Zhuang Huaijin looked on and turned to leave.
"Send Second Madam off." Nalan Youyou stood up, stood in the courtyard, and said.
"Miss, Old Madam will be back soon.”Yuejun said excitedly. Nalan Youyou smiled and tapped Yuejun's nose.
"Yes, two days. I'll be back in two days.”Nalan Youyou's thoughts drifted away.
The old madam of the Nalan Residence was Nalan Youyou's grandmother. Her surname was Chen and her name was Ruyun. It was a first-grade imperial mandate of the current dynasty. Some time ago, he went to Ganye Temple to pray for Nalan Peiyi and the Nalan Residence.
Speaking of this old madam, she had treated Nalan Youyou quite well in her previous life. Compared to Zhuang Huaijin and Nalan Jingjing's fake feelings, she was much better. She truly treated her as a granddaughter.
Since her rebirth, she had not seen the old madam. Thinking that she would be able to see her in two days, the corners of Nalan Youyou's mouth could not help but curl up.
"It seems that the Nalan Residence is not peaceful.”When Nalan Youyou entered, Beiming Zhe had already prepared the medicine. He sat in front of the table and looked at Nalan Youyou as he spoke in a refined and polite manner.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:122120184:05AM
