Ji Lingxue looked up at Xiao Yichen with disbelief, "Did the prince say the same thing when he married my sister?"
Xiao Yichen frowned and asked, "Ji Lingxue, what do you mean?" After going through so much, you still don't believe his sincerity towards her
Ji Lingxue pushed Xiao Yichen away, took a few steps back and said, "Your love is too cheap, I don't want it." Then she turned and left.
Xiao Yichen bared his teeth. What does this woman mean
Xiao Yichen turned around and walked away. Ji Lingxue was a tough nut to crack. He didn't understand. It was normal for a prince to have three wives and four concubines. It was the same in other mansions. Why did Ji Lingxue dislike him and refuse to please him
The prince was very angry. The whole palace was shrouded in a tense atmosphere, and the servants in the palace did things even more cautiously.
Xiao Yichen, who had been sitting in the study in a daze for half a day, went to Bai Mo's bamboo house to get some fresh air. The two played a few games of chess, and Xiao Yichen's restlessness was relieved a lot.
Bai Mo joked, "Your Highness, are you worried about something recently? Why not tell me about it? Maybe I can help you."
Xiao Yichen wants to go ahead, and no one can help him.
Bai Mo continued to guess: "It can't be because of women, right? You were never so discouraged even when you were fighting on the battlefield. How come you have become more indecisive after staying in the land of gentleness for so long?"
Xiao Yichen raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, sighing, "Bai Mo, I really miss the days at the border, when I was relaxed and free."
Bai Mo curled his lips and said, "Your mother doesn't want you to die alone at the border, so she must give her a grandson to play with."
Xiao Yichen smiled helplessly: "You really guessed it right, last time the Queen Mother called Ji Lingxue and I into the palace to spend the night."
Bai Mo's gossip cells gathered together, and he approached Xiao Yichen and asked, "How was that night? Did you have a great time? Come on, let me take your pulse to see if your kidneys are deficient."
Xiao Yichen's face darkened, and he slapped Bai Mo's hand away, "Go away, my kidneys are fine."
Bai Mo chuckled strangely, "Look at you, you still haven't dealt with your princess. No wonder you look so angry, haha."
Xiao Yichen lost his temper after being teased, "Then you, a bachelor, tell me, how do you get a woman?"
Bai Mo waved at Xiao Yichen, smiling from ear to ear, "Come on, let me tell you how to please the girl you like..."
Xiao Yichen approached with doubt.
Teacher Bai Mo said seriously: "In fact, women don't care about the material things you give them. You should care about her all the time, understand her schedule, know when she is most bored, and chat with her during that time, and take the initiative to share interesting things. If she doesn't dislike you, chat with her every night before going to bed, and say good night to her at the end. Over time, she will get used to your existence and your company. Then give her some small gifts on her birthday and holidays, mainly things she wants to buy but can't bear to. Confess your love again, be loyal to her, don't treat her badly after you get her, and be patient and doting on her when you choose her!"
"Your Highness... Your Highness, did you hear everything I said?" Seeing Xiao Yichen distracted for a moment, Teacher Bai Mo frowned and waved his hand in front of Xiao Yichen.
Xiao Yichen came back to his senses, slapped his thigh and said: "What you said makes sense, no wonder I always run into a wall when I try to please her, I just can't find a way..."
Last time at the training ground, Ji Lingxue said that she liked that purple wild flower, so he would go get it right away. The prince got up and left, leaving Bai Mo standing there to enjoy the cool breeze.
Bai Mo: Uh... What is he going to do? I hope he can succeed this time, otherwise, he will definitely chase me and scold me.
Ji Lingxue felt refreshed after waking up naturally from a good sleep. She called Mo Xiang twice but got no response. Ji Lingxue had to get up and dress herself. The moment she opened the door, she was dazzled.
Ji Lingxue rubbed her eyes and opened them again. She was not mistaken. What was in front of her was no longer a bluestone floor, but a green lawn. The lawn was full of purple flowers. The sun was shining and the flowers were swaying.
Mo Xiang was watering the plants with a kettle. When she heard the noise, she turned around, wiped the sweat off her forehead and said with a smile, "Princess, you're awake. Do you think you look beautiful?"
Ji Lingxue's mouth twitched and she asked, "Who did this?"
She actually lifted up all the bluestone slabs to plant grass. She is so bored. If it rains, how can she walk? Every step on her feet will be wet.
Mo Xiang answered honestly: "Yes, Your Majesty. Your Majesty said that the princess likes this."
Ji Lingxue rolled her eyes at the sky. What the hell was Xiao Yichen doing? He was just making trouble for her.
Ji Lingxue asked: "Where is the prince?"
Mo Xiang shook her head: "It seems like she went out for something..."
Ji Lingxue pinched her chin and thought for a while, then said, "Then pack these lawns for me and send them to the prince's study. Put a seal on it so that no one but the prince can open it."
Mo Xiang was so upset after hearing this. It seemed that the prince had made the princess unhappy. When would these two masters be able to reconcile? It was so embarrassing for them, the servants, to stand in the middle.
After giving the order, Ji Lingxue turned around and closed the door. Mo Xiang looked up at the sky and said to An Ge who was hanging on the tree, "An Ge, come down and help me!" How long would it take her to finish cleaning up such a large lawn
The leaves shook, and An Ge broke them apart and said, "I have an important mission to complete, so I'm sorry I can't help you. The princess didn't ask you to complete it alone. You can get some servants in the palace to help you and it will be done quickly."
The corners of Mo Xiang's mouth twitched. An Ge's important mission was to protect the princess. What could happen to the princess in the house now? The old Ru Ge was still good. I really missed the days when he was around. Although Ru Ge was very greedy and always stole the food she made and snatched her snacks, he was gone. I really missed him. I wonder if he has arrived in Dayan.
"A-choo..." Ruge, who was riding a fast horse on the Smoky Road, suddenly sneezed. He reined in his horse, turned around and looked in the direction of Dongqi. Across the hills and rivers, he seemed to hear someone calling him.
He raised the corners of his lips and said with a smile: "Dongqi... I... Yuchi Ruge is back."
That night, Xiao Yichen returned to the study. He was a little confused when he saw the wooden box on the floor of the study. He called the secret guard to ask and found out that the wooden box was sent by Ji Lingxue.
What's in the wooden box
Xiao Yichen pinched his chin and thought, could it be that Ji Lingxue liked the lawn he laid for her and gave him a gift in return, intending to give him a surprise
Xiao Yichen walked around the box and looked at the big words "No one but the prince himself may open it" on it. It was indeed Ji Lingxue's handwriting. He picked up the wooden box, weighed it, and shook it, but did not hear any strange sound coming from the box.
Xiao Yichen said: "It's a bit heavy, could it be clothes or shoes? It must be like this, yesterday he was wearing the clothes that Ji Yuqing and Zi Su made for him. It seems that Ji Lingxue was jealous, so she went out to buy a box of clothes for him.
Feeling good about himself, Xiao Yichen tore open the seal and opened the wooden box, but his face turned black the next moment...
"Bai Mo, come out here. If you don't come out, I will burn down your bamboo house!" Xiao Yichen stood in front of Bai Mo's bamboo house, holding a torch and shouting angrily.
Bai Mo, who was sleeping soundly in bed, suddenly got an idea and rolled off the bed. He pricked up his ears to listen, looked at the scene outside the window through the gap between the door and window, raised his hand and slapped his mouth, "I must be a jinx, what I say is not true... Looking at the prince's appearance, he must have been angry with the princess and came to me to vent his anger."
Bai Mo hurriedly put on his clothes, opened the back window and tried to escape, but suddenly a figure flashed and saw Xiao Yichen's secret guard standing there unnoticed. The bright moonlight shining on his face looked quite scary.
Bai Mo smiled and immediately closed the window, shutting out the serious face of the secret guard.
He straightened his clothes, opened the door and walked out. His way back was blocked, so he could only bite the bullet and go meet Xiao Yichen.
Bai Mo pretended to just wake up, yawned and went out, "Your Highness, it's so late, why do you come to see me?" He counted on his fingers, "I don't think I have killed anyone recently, nor have I charged high fees for medical treatment..." So I am a good citizen, and I have not broken any law. Your Highness, you are so angry that he must be scared.
Xiao Yichen thrust the torch in his hand hard into the ground, and the not-so-sharp tail sank ten inches into the ground.
Xiao Yichen lifted his robe and sat on the stone bench in the yard, "What kind of rotten idea did you come up with? Why did you make me lose face?"
Bai Mo touched his nose and looked Xiao Yichen up and down, "How did the prince please the princess?" His idea worked every time, as long as he was sincere, he could turn a rock into something soft.
Xiao Yichen said, "Two days ago, I took the princess to the training ground to see the venue for the cooking competition. The princess pointed to a wild flower and said she liked it very much. So when I heard you say that yesterday, I tore up the grass in the training ground and spread it in her yard..."
Xiao Yichen paused, pinched his throat and continued, "I thought I could please her, but tonight, I saw a box of grass in my study. Do you think I am miserable?"
Bai Mo held his stomach and laughed, "My Lord, your way of pursuing women is really unique..."
Xiao Yichen's face darkened, and he slammed the table and said, "I only know how to fight on the battlefield, but I don't know how to chase women... Besides, you are a bachelor, how dare you laugh at me? I have at least three wives, do you have one? You are so poor that you only have this broken bamboo house and that medicinal field."
After being criticized by Xiao Yichen, Bai Mo didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
When Xiao Yichen saw Bai Mo was sad, his mood instantly balanced. He patted the table and asked, "Do you have any wine?"
Bai Mo turned back to the room and got two jars of wine. He sat face to face with Xiao Yichen, clinked the jars together, and drank in silence.
After three rounds of drinking, Bai Mo asked, "I heard that the third prince of Dayan has returned. Dayan is in civil strife right now. What do you think?"
Xiao Yichen spun the wine jar and laughed, "After this year's cooking competition, I will go to Dayan and make the situation in their country more chaotic."
