When Xu Jiao's wind chill was almost better, her birthday also arrived.
On her birthday, Yu Ye gave her a very special birthday present—
She took Xu Jiao to court.
Although Xu Jiao didn't quite understand the political affairs that many high-ranking officials reported to them, and Yu Ye's battles with them, there was no doubt that she could sit here as a prince, which meant that she could not understand. Yu Ye tacitly allowed her to enter this power center.
When Yu Ye was changing into a cat, those people who were thinking about the center were hardly seen in the courtroom. Xu Jiao looked at the ministers standing through the bead curtain, and could guess Yu The Jinyiwei prison that Ye mentioned casually before may now have a new trial prisoner.
When she was discussing government affairs in the court, she heard the Ministry of Housing talking about a new type of rice that she was researching recently. Xu Jiao almost fell asleep listening to the professional things about farming, but she knew that this was a major event for the national economy and the people's livelihood, so she could only pinch it. He tried to cheer up with his legs, and then couldn't help but quietly looked at Yu Ye next to him, and found that she couldn't tell whether she was sleepy or not.
Under the eyes of the public, Xu Jiao didn't look at her for too long, so she could only withdraw her eyes, look at her nose, nose at her heart, and thought deeply:
You must protect your mistress.
Otherwise, if Yu Ye hangs up, wouldn't these things be left to her to make decisions
Inappropriate or inappropriate, she just wanted to come for an internship, and didn't want to really bear this country and responsibility on her shoulders. If something went wrong when making a decision, the price would be paid by the lives of the people, which was too heavy.
Thinking of this, Xu Jiao discussed the plot with the system in her mind. The most important thing was the plot of the original book, recalling what the hero and heroine did, so as to help Yu Ye avoid some deadly places.
After chatting and chatting, I talked this morning for the first time.
When the court was leaving, Xu Jiao's butt was almost numb on the hard chair, but Yu Ye still didn't forget to test her: "Your Highness is going to court today, how do you feel?"
Xu Jiao stood up with the hand of the servant next to her, supported the crown above her head, and replied in a deep voice, "There are still many things that I don't understand, and I still need more advice from Master Yu and Baiguan."
Yu Ye frowned slightly.
Xu Jiao thought that what she said was not right, and wondered whether there was anything that could be corrected in what she said just now, but Yu Ye asked her, "Why don't you understand?"
Xu Jiao hurriedly said, "I don't understand much about rice planting. I think I should read more books on farmland irrigation."
Yu Ye didn't say anything, just stared into her eyes, and when Xu Jiao was seen cramped by her, she heard Yu Ye whisper:
"It's all nuanced stuff."
"His Royal Highness, as a high-ranking person, knows how to employ people, and knows that it is enough to leave professional things to professional people. The art of the emperor is what the emperor has to do. If the emperor needs to study all three hundred and sixty lines thoroughly. , is too harsh."
Xu Jiao bowed her head and replied, "Thank you, Lord Yu, for your teaching."
Yu Ye raised his hand to block her chin, preventing her from lowering her head: "His Royal Highness is the king, and I am the minister. Whether you are right or wrong, never bow your head to the minister."
Xu Jiao was also surprised by the change in her attitude, but Yu Ye had already withdrawn his hand and changed the subject: "Today is His Highness's birthday, and this minister promised to take His Highness out for a walk."
Xu Jiao's eyes widened: "Today?"
Yu Ye took her to the side hall next to her, and ordered someone to bring in two sets of ordinary clothes for businessmen. One set is a gradient dark blue with stars embroidered with silver thread, which is in line with her deep temperament.
When Xu Jiao went behind the screen with her clothes, Yu Ye had already put out all the servants, so that when Xu Jiao probed to ask the people around her how to tie the clothes, she found that there were only herself and Yu in the room. Ye two people.
Yu Ye's belt had been loosened, and his jacket had been loosened. He noticed Xu Jiao's gaze and raised his brows to ask:
"how?"
Xu Jiao snorted and raised her shirt to her: "I... don't know how to tie this belt."
But she didn't want to cause trouble to Yu Ye, she just said: "After Mr. Yu has changed, just call Lan Yan in for me."
After she finished speaking, she retracted her head behind the screen.
…
As a result, I waited and waited, only until a blue figure circled behind the screen—
Xu Jiao looked at Yu Ye who was walking in front of her in a daze, and raised her head to look at her: "Master Yu is this?"
Yu Ye's expression was very calm: "Come and change your clothes for you."
Xu Jiao: "...?!"
You are a dignified regent, but you don't have to treat yourself as a palace servant.
She put on a flattered expression and wanted to refuse, but Yu Ye had already raised her hand to untie the belt of the prince's coat on her body, and Xu Jiao was holding another set of clothes in her hand. It's not like continuing to let Yu Ye take off his clothes.
In the end, she could only take a step back and said quickly: "Master Yu, such a trivial matter as changing clothes—"
Yu Ye pulled the corner of his lower lip without smiling, looked at her condescendingly and said, "What are you nervous about?"
"With this expression, those who didn't know it thought I was going to force you."
Xu Jiao's first reaction was that she thought something was wrong with her ears.
After that, this sentence sounds familiar.
Xu Jiao has a good memory, and almost instantly remembered what she once said to the little white cat who had lost all martial arts skills and let Rua pinched her.
She took a breath and looked at Yu Ye, who didn't intend to cover the little vest at all, her breath stuck in her throat, and after a while she could only smirk and said to Yu Ye:
"Master Yu's joke is not very funny."
Yu Ye looked at her expression, and responded with a "yes", and then said, "Reach out your hand."
Xu Jiao listened subconsciously.
When he raised his hand, Yu Ye took off the coat on her body, took the clothes in her hand, and after changing the coat for her, raised his hand through her waist, and tidied up the belt and girdle. Okay, squat down and help her change.
Maybe it's because it's not the material that serves people after all. When Yu Ye helped her change her clothes, although she was skilled, when her fingertips passed through her waist, she would always touch her vaguely. So itchy up and down...
Xu Jiao could only take a deep breath and suppress all the feelings.
After Yu Ye changed her clothes for her and prepared the fox fur and cloak to go out, she made sure that Xu Jiao's boots were warm enough, she put on rabbit fur gloves, and finally stuffed her with a hand-warmer soup. Seeing that Yu Ye took the initiative to step back a little, Xu Jiao couldn't even suspect that she had bad intentions, and only regarded those who were just unskilled as Yu Ye's servants.
…
The two changed their clothes and went out from the side palace gate in a hidden pony carriage all the way.
The capital of Dayan is still very prosperous.
Perhaps because the previous emperors were more brutal, the people of the Yan Kingdom seem to have suddenly realized the true meaning of life and death. The streets are prosperous, there are many restaurants and brothels, and the style of drinking and drinking is implemented everywhere. to the extreme.
As if I don't know if I can see the sun tomorrow.
Seeing that Xu Jiao's eyes were always circling in the red light districts and wine shops, Yu Ye frowned, ignoring the palace guards who were pretending to be servants behind him, raised his hand to cover Xu Jiao's eyes and said:
"Don't look at those places."
However, Xu Jiao pushed her hand away: "Why don't you watch it? This is also a part of people's lives. If the superiors can see the truest part of the people's feelings, they will not be deceived by the people who convey it."
Yu Ye had no choice but to take the next step: "Dang... You can just take a look outside, don't be too curious, it's not a good place."
Xu Jiao nodded: "I know."
Yu Ye thought about diverting her attention. She happened to see a famous wine shop by the roadside, so she brought Xu Jiao in, but Xu Jiao's eyes were attracted by the flowers by the roadside. The flowers were all fresh. The opening is gorgeous and grand, as if the vigor and vitality of this Yingge Yanwu, Mi-Lan drunkenness.
She subconsciously pulled Yu Ye:
"Yu—"
The word "adult" stuck in his throat.
Thinking that her identity needs to be concealed, Xu Jiao changed her tune and said, "Sister, wait a minute."
Yu Ye was suffocating his breath when he shouted at the title, with a smile in his eyes, and said to her, "What did you just call me? Call me again..."
Looking in the direction where Xu Jiao was, she continued, "I'll buy all the flowers for you."
Xu Jiao: "…"
She doesn't want to spend.
Hearing Yu Ye's words, she turned her eyes away pretending to be nothing, and took the initiative to follow the second shopkeeper to the upstairs direction. When she heard the name of the dish that the other side reported succinctly, she did not hesitate, only said: "Choose some of your signature dishes. Just bring it for two."
Yu Ye let her make the decision without saying anything, and even took the initiative to fill Xu Jiao's cup with tea.
At that time, Xu Jiao thought it was just a joke that she asked herself to call her sister.
Then she quickly forgot about it, and focused on the dishes presented by the restaurant. The first one was Fengxue Short Ribs, which were grilled with plum flavor and just right, sprinkled on a black plate. The salt grains are used as the background, which is very artistic.
The same goes for the roast duck after that.
The dishes in the restaurant are all exquisite, and compared to the palace, there are different flavors in it.
Xu Jiao was satisfied with the food and wanted to walk around the street more, but Yu Ye had already estimated that the time would not let her blow the wind for too long: "If you like it, I will often take you out in the future, and you can also take the Lantern Festival with you. You came out to see the lanterns, but you have to go back today."
"If you don't obey, I won't take you out in the future."
Others heard their conversation and thought it was the eldest sister in the family who was teaching her disobedient sister.
Thinking of her physique, Xu Jiao nodded helplessly and said, "A word is settled."
She obediently followed Yu Ye back to the palace, and when she entered the palace, she was stuffed with a bunch of strawberries with rock candy. Perhaps seeing that she was not interested in candied haws, Yu Ye deliberately changed it to strawberries when she reached out.
Xu Jiao was so excited in the carriage now that no matter how careful she was, the corners of her lips were stained with sugar.
Yu Ye wiped away the traces on her lips.
Xu Jiao froze for a moment and looked up at her—
She found that Mr. Yu had been a little weird since the cat turned back into a human.
Could it be that she once became a beast and changed any of her brain structures
Xu Jiao couldn't think of why she came for a while, but she saw Yu Ye naturally withdrew her hand and said to her, "Today is His Highness's birthday, and I have a gift for you."
Xu Jiao saw that she was touching a wooden box by her hand. It was there when she got on the carriage, but she wasn't curious, so she didn't ask. She didn't expect it to be a birthday present prepared by Yu Ye for her.
Yu Ye opened the box with Yubai's fingertips in her eyes, and inside was a...
Very delicate, with a hollow gold pattern.
bell.
Xu Jiao: "!"
She didn't even bother to eat rock candy strawberries, she looked at Yu Ye with wide eyes, and even forgot to be polite: "I don't really like fancy things, and I appreciate the kindness of Mr. Yu—"
Yu Ye squinted his eyes and looked over, the corners of his lips curled dangerously: "Oh? Don't you like it?"
It was a simple sentence, but Xu Jiao's hair stood on end.
She moved her lips and said subconsciously, "It depends on the situation..."
Yu Ye smiled better, like a gentle spring breeze, pulling Xu Jiao into his arms from the opposite side, and regardless of whether Xu Jiao was willing or not, he showed her the golden bell so that she could see it. The thin line of the bell, close to her ear, said slowly:
"If you like it, I'll let you choose a place to wear it."
"If you don't like it..."
She lengthened her voice.
Xu Jiao held her breath.
Immediately, the second half of Yu Ye's sentence slowly floated over with a little regret: "If you don't like it, the overly sad minister can only hang this in a place I like according to his own wishes."
Xu Jiao swallowed her saliva and tried to ask, "What is your favorite place, Mr. Yu?"
Yu Ye smiled, brushed the tip of his right finger over her leg, and said in a low voice, "The golden thread of this bell is very thin, so it's easy to pass through any flowers, right?"
Xu Jiao almost stood up and hit her head on the top of the carriage!
absurd!
Dirty!
presumptuous!
abnormal!
She flashed a series of words in her mind, but in the end, Yu Ye, who noticed her thoughts, held her in place. She took a deep breath and hammered Yu Ye a thousand times in her heart. At the same time, she secretly thought that she should not save this Son of a bitch, it would be nice to have her leash early!
Spicy chicken heroine!
Seeing that she was really frightened, Yu Ye couldn't help shaking his head. He picked out another beautiful ribbon from the box next to him, passed the thin gold thread through the ribbon, weaved it together, and then whispered:
"Okay, to scare you."
"Don't be afraid, I gave you the foot ornaments, wear them if you like them, forget them if you don't."
Xu Jiao looked at her suspiciously.
Seeing Yu Yechong showing his snow-white teeth again: "Anyway, you're still so young, right?"
Xu Jiao: "…"
It means that when you grow up, you can do anything wrong, right
She didn't say a word, like a silent protest. She didn't expect to be threatened by Yu Ye on her birthday. She was about to say something when she heard Yu Ye complaining and saying to her like a reminder:
"I remember that His Highness had a cat before, and he liked to hang a bell for the cat. At that time, His Highness didn't seem to ask the cat if he liked it, eh?"
Xu Jiao: "..." The cheapskate, really hold grudges.
She took the humiliation and opened her skirt and said to Yu Ye, "Thank you for the birthday gift from Mr. Yu, I like it very much."
Yu Ye smiled with satisfaction: "I think so too."
At the same time, she grabbed Xu Jiao's feet and hung up the golden bell for her. Xu Jiao found that the bell was actually hollow, and as the movement didn't make any sound, she felt relieved and let her toss.
Unexpectedly, Yu Ye touched the slender bones of her ankle, and then measured the width of her ankle, and sighed faintly:
"It's still too thin."
When Xu Jiao listened to her words, she was inexplicably frightened, and she always felt as if she was lamenting that she was a little bit inexperienced.
She turned her head to look at the dark sky outside the window, and silently recited her birthday wish this year:
Slow down, slow down again—
After all, she seems to be targeted by a beast!
