Chapter 29 Pastries and Secrets
"Since Your Majesty has forgiven me for my little unintentional mistakes and appreciated me for my hard work, can I ask Your Majesty for another reward?" Chu Ci immediately seized the opportunity and said bluntly.
Cang Ling stood up calmly, looked down at Chu Ci with his hands behind his back, and smiled, "Do you know that this is a step forward? Let's talk about it first."
Chu Ci immediately said, "Please beg your Majesty to let me go out of the palace the day after tomorrow."
"No." Cang Ling refused without thinking.
"...Why?" Chu Ci asked powerlessly.
"You have been with me for a day and want to be lazy. If I indulge you, it will be better if I indulge you into a habit?" Cang Lingyue gave this reason very serious. Chu Ci was so serious that he was embarrassed to doubt whether he had any other purpose.
Chu Ci had no choice but to bite the bullet and stress: "Your Majesty, I really have a serious business."
"Your business is to stay by my side." Cang Lingyue said strongly.
Stay with me... Chu Ci was stunned, feeling that this sentence sounded a bit ambiguous.
Cang Lingyue seemed to have noticed something wrong, but the beauty emperor would never admit that he was saying the wrong thing. He just glanced at Chu Ci, and then said disdainfully, "What do you think? What I mean is that you have to stay by my side and follow you."
"...Oh." Knowing that the beauty emperor was sometimes domineering and unreasonable, Chu Ci didn't expect him to regress and could give him any hope. He had to secretly hope in his heart that Rong Hua, the master who seemed to have no normal brain, could temporarily forget this matter...
But when he thought of Rong Hua, Chu Ci suddenly felt excited and couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty, where is Rong Hua? It seems that he has never heard of this person since the martial arts test that day."
But after Cang Lingyue heard the name, her smile slowly calmed down and asked her: "Why did you suddenly ask him?"
Chu Ci noticed that Cang Lingyue's attitude had changed a lot, and he was unsure and whispered: "I am just curious..."
"Then let go of your extra curiosity. The only thing you should have is your loyalty to me." Sure enough, Cang Lingyue immediately interrupted Chu Ci's words without any doubt. After saying that, he sat back and continued to read the memorial.
I'm really watching this time, without any distractions.
Chu Ci was more curious by Cang Ling's attitude of changing dramatically. Why did Cang Ling's attitude suddenly become so gloomy after hearing her mention Rong Hua?
Although Chu Ci had thought that after Cang Lingyue had resolutely rejected the request to leave the palace, she had thought that Ronghua would forget their agreement, after all, she was never used to it and never owed favors. Even though she finally slept on the soft couch that Cang Lingyue had been carried in by her that night, she tossed and turned for a long time before she could fall asleep.
Because this matter was piled up in my heart and could not be resolved for a long time, Chu Ci even forgot to investigate the strange silver needle, and Cang Lingyue clearly agreed to go to Ningfei's palace but didn't go anywhere.
The next morning, Chu Ci woke up before Cang Lingyue woke up. The first thing she did was to make sure. No matter what, tomorrow night, she would have to find a way to take the two jars of bamboo leaves to the tavern in the suburbs to meet Rong Hua.
But before she had to adopt some sneaky methods, she had to try her best to see if she could convince Cang Ling to agree more. After all, it was not easy to gain his pitiful trust in her now, and she could not squander it all just because she disobeyed the order.
Chu Ci looked at Cang Lingyue with some disbelief. Is he so generous, kind and considerate?
Chu Ci's questioning little eyes made Cang Ling's face darker, and then she quickly looked away, not thinking about what his intentions were. Before he got angry and changed his mind, she quickly sat down.
Hungry, really hungry.
Since he had already sat down, Chu Ci did not refuse, picked up the pair of public chopsticks that he had just given Cang Ling Yue cloth dishes and started eating.
She ate happily and didn't notice that the earlier Cang Ling had put down her chopsticks, and a smile on her lips were all looking at her.
When Chu Ci finished his meal, he picked up the silk squid and wiped his mouth clean, and looked at Cang Lingyue with embarrassment, the latter had already changed into the disgust he had when facing her, as if the softness of the moment had never existed.
In the afternoon, Cang Ling was free and had nothing to do, and suddenly wanted to go to the Imperial Garden, so Chu Ci followed him for granted.
It is early spring now, and almost all the precious flowers in the imperial garden are blooming. Chu Ci is not very interested in these flowers and plants, but when he sees the beautiful scenery in front of him, he still likes it a little.
Cang Lingyue was about to come to the Imperial Garden, and before coming, he ordered Liufu to order the venue to be cleared and no one was allowed to step into the place.
After coming in, I didn't look at it for a while, but walked straight to the small pavilion in the center and sat down, leisurely eating the prepared fruits.
On the contrary, Chu Ci, because he had never seen such a scene of blooming flowers in his past or present life, he took a few more glances.
Cang Lingyue was sitting in the pavilion, sending cherries into her mouth one by one, but her eyes were still on Chu Ci, peeking openly.
After watching this for a while, Cang Ling suddenly ordered: "Pick a rose for me, yes, it's on your left hand, the white one."
Chu Ci picked the flowers as Cang Lingyue's instructions, walked to the pavilion and handed them to him.
After taking the flowers, Cang Lingyue stood up and said nothing, and directly pinned the flowers to Chu Ci's ears.
After finishing it, I looked at Chu Ci who was stunned and shook his head slightly dissatisfied. Then I suddenly reached out to take off Chu Ci's official hat and took off her simple men's wooden hairpin with her hair tied away.
Like a waterfall's long hair scattered down in an instant, the black hair, snow-white flowers, and the exquisite face were shockingly beautiful.
Cang Lingyue's eyes flashed with surprise, and then nodded slightly with satisfaction.
Chu Ci was already shocked by Cang Lingyue's series of actions.
Why did he put his eyes on her ears, and why did he spread her hair?
He couldn't have... seen her true identity, right?
Chu Ci was shocked when she thought of this, but she carefully observed Cang Lingyue, but she didn't find any anger. She denied half of this possibility first-No, with Cang Lingyue's stingy temperament, it would be absolutely impossible for her to be angry after discovering that she disobeyed the law, a man pretended to be a woman and lurked beside him.
Just as he was standing there, Cang Ling spoke more and said jokingly: "Chu Ci, every time I see you, I feel like a woman. Now when I see you like this, it really looks more like you!"
...Is he taking revenge on her for saying that he is more beautiful than her? Chu Ci felt that his brain was not very good for the first time in front of Cang Ling's strange thinking that Cang Ling was more strange than ordinary people.
