Yu Jing sneered, "I know what His Highness wants. How about this? He belongs to me, and His Highness can do whatever he wants over there in the cold land. I don't really care anyway. What I can promise is that I will never interfere in the matter of seizing the heir." "
Xin Yu looked at him for a moment and did not answer immediately. Yu Jing still meant that he didn't want to help him. However, using a Wu She Yue in exchange for Yu Jing's neutrality doesn't seem to be a disadvantage - and the person used to exchange it is not one of his own.
After such calculation, Xin Yu felt that he was not at a disadvantage, but even if Yu Jing agreed to half of it, he still didn't believe it, "Do you think it's worth it? She's just a woman who knows a little bit about crafts."
Yu Jing shook his head, "Didn't His Highness also do something extraordinary for this little craft job? Then Your Highness should know that my thoughts are true."
"Okay, okay." Xin Yu said "ok" several times and seemed to agree. "Then I also believe you in what you just told me. Not only this autumn exam, but also I will not use Wu Ziqi again in the future. Although there is no written record between you and me, as a gentleman, you You must remember clearly what you promised me today."
"Your Highness, don't worry."
Xin Yu finally put on a friendly expression, leaned closer to Yu Jing, and said pointedly: "I still want to get along well with you."
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness." Yu Jing's smile was somewhat cold.

After Yu Jing left, Xin Yu sat alone in the flower hall drinking tea. He drank glass after glass without moving anywhere.
I don't know how much time passed, but Wu Liuyun finally came back alone after changing his clothes.
"Your Highness." She stood at the door and saw Xin Yu still sitting there, and she suddenly felt extremely aggrieved.
Xin Yu looked up and waved to her quickly: "Liu Yun, why are you here."
"I, I just..." Wu Liuyun walked over, what should she say? She had been waiting for a long time by the lake where they showed their love. Was she anxious
Seeing Wu Liuyun's face turning red, Xin Yu was not embarrassed to tease her, "I suddenly had something urgent to deal with just now. I really didn't have time to tell you."
"Yes, it was Liu Yun who disturbed the prince." She said thoughtfully, and looked around, but she didn't see Wu Sheyue or her maid.
Wu Liuyun was looking for someone, and the abrupt Xin Yu grabbed her hand, startling her. Xin Yu said with utmost gentleness: "No, it's because I kept Liu Yun waiting for too long."
Wu Liuyun's heartbeat accelerated, and his whole body felt like he was in a dream. Unexpectedly, Xin Yu's attitude toward her would progress so quickly today. Could it be that the prince and Wu Sheyue couldn't stand it after being alone for a while? She lowered her head shyly, not daring to look into Xin Yu's eyes.
Xin Yu gently raised her chin. The ice beauty in front of her had completely melted into a puddle of clear water, just waiting for someone to stir up the rippling waves.
Xin Yu lowered his head and kissed Wu Liuyun impulsively on the lips. Wu Liuyun shuddered and closed her eyes. This was the first time in her life that she had tried such a wonderful touch.
Just now, he failed to deal with Wu Sheyue and was in vain. Now that he had this opportunity, he was thinking about whether he could deal with Wu Liuyun first, and the words Wu Sheyue just said flashed through his mind. And this touch, it's a bit different from that little girl.
Xin Yu was a little disgusted with his absent-mindedness, so he ended the affectionate kiss abruptly.
"Your Highness?" Wu Liuyun opened his eyes and looked at him with some confusion.
"I'll take you back later." Xin Yu said and let go of his hand.
"Yeah." Wu Liuyun was a little disappointed.

After Wu Sheyue returned that day, he went directly to Qunxingzhai and made up a blind report with the old lady. The old lady thought that Xin Yu didn't like her very much anymore, so she just scolded her a few words. Anyway, Wu Liuyun was left alone by the prince, so just one person would be enough.
In the next two days, Wu Sheyue had a rare moment of free time to take a good rest. But since she came back from the Prince's Mansion, she started to feel a little depressed. Not eating enough and suffering from insomnia were all seen by Ning'er.
In the evening, she sat at the table and knitted a rope with red silk. As time passed, she kept repeating the movements, and her eyes began to wander.
Ning'er, who was practicing handicrafts next to her, stopped and asked her suspiciously, "Miss, are you in a daze?"
Wu Sheyue glanced at her and said weakly: "I'm just a little tired, and my nerves haven't been very good recently."
"What are nerves?"
"It's...the spirit..."
"Just the other way around?"
"Yes, just understand the meaning." Wu Sheyue felt a little dizzy.
Ning'er shook her head thoughtfully and said, "But Ning'er thinks that the young lady is worried. This is also the case when people are worried."
"Really?" Wu Sheyue was a little unsure. How could she not know that she had something on her mind
Ning'er looked at the red rope in her hand and the jade beads scattered on the table and asked, "Miss... are you thinking about the young prince?"
"?" Wu Sheyue looked surprised. She really didn't think about Yu Jing just now. The point is, she didn't think about anything. She was in a state of emptiness. Like who am I? Where am I? That's it.
But Ning'er thought she was right, and sighed arrogantly: "Isn't this obvious? Miss Shen has not even been looking for Miss Shen recently. She conspires with the young prince every day. Who else can there be besides the young prince? "
Wu Sheyue looked at the half of the red rope in her hand with some confusion, "It's not him. Actually... I don't know why."
When Ning'er heard this, she immediately put down the things in her hands. She came over and looked at Wu Sheyue very seriously and asked her word for word: "Does the young lady like the young prince?"
"What did you say?" Wu Sheyue frowned, "Hey... I think he is pretty good."
"I'm talking about that kind of love. Miss, there are so many people, no matter male or female, but you are the only one who has a good look towards the young prince."
"What does this mean?" Wu Sheyue raised her eyebrows and said, "Am I not good to you? Am I not good to Huan'er? Yu Jing already has a lover." She said this with some displeasure.
Ning'er looked dumbfounded, and Wu Sheyue added, "It was that woman that day."
"That... that..." Ning'er pondered for a long time but couldn't think of how to describe the woman wearing the mask that day.
Wu Sheyue frowned and said: "I didn't know what happened to that woman before, but now I know it completely. I heard that there is only one princess among the seven princes in the cold land. She should be a real golden branch and jade leaf~"
Ning'er said excitedly: "But that woman is so cruel. How can someone like her be with the young prince? It's simply unimaginable."
"Emotions are the most blind thing. It's a big deal that he likes her. That's why he refused to tell me about this woman that day. He wanted to protect Wu Meng." Wu Sheyue said, with some hesitation in her heart. (To be continued)
