Chapter Sixteen: The Mysterious Poinsettia(1/2)

"Sister! Please don't be angry anymore! Our imperial brother is that kind of person, and you will know it as time goes by. In fact, you don't have to get angry with him! He is not a bad person, he is just a serious person.

A little bit!"

At this time, Prince Lin was in the eldest princess's courtyard, earnestly persuading the depressed Xia Lingyue.

"Brother Er Huang, do you know? When I knew it was you, I felt really mixed emotions!"

Xia Lingyue stared blankly at the flocks of flying birds in the sky outside the door, sighing silently.

"Sister, what's wrong with you? Have you had a hard time these past few years?"

King Lin's sword-browed and starry-eyed lying eyes flashed with a faint sparkle, he gently patted her thin shoulder,

"Hey... this is really a long story! Do you know? Over the years, I have longed to have someone in my family who can speak my true feelings! There is a kind of helplessness called being in the middle of a busy city.

Lonely!" Xia Lingyue's eyes also flashed with a sour feeling as clear as autumn water.

"From now on, tell me what you have to say!" King Lin stared at her with his deep eyes filled with crystal clear eyes.

"Brother Second Emperor, to tell you the truth, although my aunt has treated me well over the years, I always feel humbled and dependent on others."

When talking about this, Xia Lingyue couldn't help but shed a tear from the corner of her eyes.

"Don't be sad! Please promise me! Treat yourself well in the future!" King Lin gently took her hand, and the rolling waves in his eyes became hotter and hotter.

"I can guess that you must have been very helpless in the years since the death of the emperor! It's just a pity that the eldest brother and I have been outside the wall and have no chance to take care of you! Panyun is the only one in the palace, have you followed him?

Does he come and go often?" King Lin stroked her head, with an expression of pity on his face.

"I always feel that I can keep my own affairs in mind, and I don't want to talk to anyone." Xia Lingyue sighed and poured two cups of tea: "Come! Brother, please have a cup of tea! This is scented tea.

, I think it’s quite fragrant, it’s my usual tea for relieving depression, it’s pretty good!”

"That's right! People's hearts are separated from each other, so you should learn to be more restrained!" King Lin said, reaching out to pick up the tea she poured on the table, and raised his hand to drink it.

Suddenly, his hand holding the cup froze in mid-air.

"You...what kind of tea is this?" King Lin only held the teacup between his breaths, but his frown also tightened.

"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Xia Lingyue turned sideways and hurriedly put down the tea cup in her hand.

"Who gave you this tea?" Seeing that King Lin's tone didn't sound like he was asking casually, a sharp look appeared on his face.

"Penhe gave me this tea! What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this?"

Xia Lingyue looked at King Lin's serious face and it didn't look like she was joking. She also stood up and left her seat in a panic, walking around to King Lin.

"Brother, what's wrong? Is there any problem with this?" She stretched her neck and looked doubtfully into the tea cup in his hand.

"How long have you been drinking this tea? Where did Fenhe give you this tea from?"

King Lin's expression became more and more fierce! At this time, the atmosphere in the room instantly solidified.

"I haven't been drinking it for long, and I haven't asked Fenhe where this tea comes from." Xia Lingyue couldn't help but panic when she saw King Lin looking so serious.

"Stop drinking! This tea is not for you!" The silence on King Lin's face made Xia Lingyue feel cold all over.

"What's wrong? Brother, what's the problem? Why can't I drink this tea?" Xia Lingyue's panicked expression was full of strong doubts.

"Yue'er! You really don't know how to protect yourself!" King Lin sighed with a sigh.

"Brother, where did you start talking about this? How do I protect myself in my own mansion? Besides, my thoughts are not as complicated as yours, so what problem did you find?"

There was a look of confusion on her face, and those things that she couldn't understand were really too confusing for her.

"The reason why the fragrance in this tea is so strong is that it is obviously using strong fragrance to cover up the faint musky smell! If I hadn't grown up outside the Great Wall all year round, I wouldn't have such a high level of alertness.

"A growing sense of solemnity flashed across Prince Lin's face.

"Musk?" The doubts on Xia Lingyue's surprised face became more and more intense.

"By the way, isn't this musk a precious Chinese medicinal material? What's wrong with putting it in tea and drinking it? What's so strange about this?" Xia Lingyue scratched her head and suddenly laughed: "Hahahahahaha...

...Brother, you are really making a fuss out of a molehill! I thought something big had happened! Hahahaha...Brother, you have so many things on your mind! I don’t even know how to say good things to you!"

At this time, Xia Lingyue's almond-shaped eyes, with her dark eyebrows slightly raised, had turned into a crescent moon when she smiled.

"Do you really think I'm joking?" King Lin's tone suddenly became sharp, and his appearance at this time was no less powerful and domineering than King Ying's usual self.

"Brother Second Emperor! Don't you think you're kidding me?" Xia Lingyue patted her chest, straightened up and said, "I feel really happy to be with you now! If this continues for a long time,

Won’t the gloom in my heart soon dissipate?”

She raised her hand and used her slender jade fingers to stroke her charming silver plate-like cheek, wiping away the wet traces of tears splattering on the corners of her eyes.

"Are you laughing at my ignorance?"

The serious words squeezed out from King Lin's lips could freeze someone to death! It turned out that his cold demeanor was even more piercing than King Ying's.

"I..." Xia Lingyue suddenly realized that she had gone too far. She immediately stopped laughing and timidly gave King Lin an apologetic look.

"Brother Second Emperor! Then please explain to me what's wrong with this?" Her eyes were filled with doubtful expectation.

"I guess you were plotted against someone!"

When King Lin said these words, he actually thought about it secretly in his heart for a while.

"Second Emperor Brother! How can we see this?" A wave of doubt once again flooded into her eyes.

"If you don't understand, go check out the efficacy of musk! I don't know what to tell you!"

When King Lin said these words, there was a blush of shyness faintly spreading on his cheeks.

"Brother Second Emperor...you..."

Although Xia Lingyue was naive, she still noticed the strange look on King Lin's face.

"Sister! You must listen to me on this matter no matter what! You are not allowed to drink this tea again!"

King Lin's serious face looked unconquerable, which made Xia Lingyue tremble.

"But......"

At this time, she actually felt an unprecedented warmth flowing into her heart like a spring water.

"But brother Erhuang, tell me now! Let me read a book by myself, it will waste time! I want to know now!"

At this time, Xia Lingyue's request seemed to be a bit too much!

In fact, her appearance at this time would make people who don't know her mistakenly think that she is a pretentious, arrogant and domineering princess.

"Sister! Just don't drink it if I tell you not to. Don't ask so many questions! Drinking this tea for a long time will cause you lifelong regret! Now you will understand how strict I am with you in the future."

King Lin said as he walked to the table beside him, put the remaining scented tea in the sachet into his arms, then went to empty the teapot and teacup, and then poured out a handful of spare water on the side.

The tea sets are cleaned cleanly.

"Brother Erhuang! You can't take away all my scented tea! At worst, I won't drink it if I don't want to!" When Xia Lingyue saw him doing this, she started to panic.

"I won't drink it anyway. It's useless for you to leave it. Why don't I take it away!" King Lin said and took a few steps back to the door, keeping a longer distance from her who stood up and walked over.

"But......"

Xia Lingyue hesitated to speak, and looked very cute with her unwillingness. King Lin couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled secretly when he saw her stupid look.

"Okay! It's time for me to leave! You must take care of yourself! I'll come see you another day!"

As King Lin said this, he quickly walked out of the door and disappeared at the end of the corridor in her courtyard within a few seconds.

She hurriedly chased him out, only to see his figure wandering around the corner at the end of the corridor.

"Hey...this second emperor brother! What kind of medicine did he take wrongly?"

Although Xia Lingyue was dissatisfied with him for taking away her scented tea without her consent, she still felt a little moved inexplicably in her heart.

"Miss! What's wrong with you?"

Fenhe was standing at the door carrying a basket of flowers, looking at her strangely.

"Uh... I just saw a white cat making trouble on the eaves, so I came out to take a look."

Xia Lingyue looked up and found that Fen He had returned, with a hint of displeasure on her face.

"Yeah?"

When Fen He heard what she said, she secretly raised her eyes and glanced at the eaves opposite.

"Yes! It's just such a small thing, is there anything strange about it?" Xia Lingyue turned back and went into the interior.

"Miss! Do you know what kind of flowers these are? I specially brought some flowers from Cuiliu'er today. Come back and decorate your room! We can't give in to ourselves. How about that?

Isn’t he the master? Hahaha!”

Fen He suddenly showed a big cloth bag from behind, and she happily put down the rattan basket in her arms.

The flowers in the cloth bag are different from the bouquets in the rattan basket. They all appear to be an eye-catching and coquettish red.

"Pink lotus! Where did you bring this flower back from? It looks quite beautiful!"

In fact, Xia Lingyue is also a person who is obsessed with flowers. Naturally, her eyes light up and she feels extremely excited inside!

"Miss! These plants are called "poinsettia" and these plants are called "half-year red". Cui Liu'er said that planting such flowers in their lady's room would save her a lot of time in the summer.

Kubaba’s thoughts on driving away mosquitoes for the young lady!”
