Chapter 124 Reading Together

After strolling for half a day, the weather was getting hotter, so Qingyi and Qingqing returned to the palace.

At this time, Ye Qingyu had just gotten up. After washing up, he went straight to the study, intending to take advantage of this free time to read for a while.

"Where is the young prince?" Qing Yi asked impatiently as he entered the palace.

"Young Master Qingyi, the young prince is in the study." Steward Lin was busy directing the servants to clean the courtyard. When he heard Qingyi's question, he hurriedly replied.

"Oh, let's go take a look." Qing Yi turned and said to Qingqing.

"You go ahead. I won't go." Qingqing quickly refused. Her master was in the study, handling affairs or reading. As a maid, how could she dare to disturb him?

"Okay, give me the things and I'll send them to him. You can give Qingfeng's belt to him." Qingyi said, taking the hairband that he had carefully selected for Ye Qingyu from Qingqing's hands, and left without looking back.

"Hey, this belt... you give it to me..." she called out softly from behind, but when she saw the look from Manager Lin, she shut up in frustration. This brat really knows how to boss people around, she thought to herself.

Qingyi came to the study in the palace and saw Ruyi waiting at the door with two maids. The door of the study was tightly closed.

"Master Qingyi." Ruyi and the maids saluted hurriedly.

"Well, I'll go in and take a look." Qing Yi said, reaching out and pushing open the door of the study.

"This..." Before Ruyi could stop him, the study door had already been pushed open by Qingyi. This man was too rude. When the master was in the study, it was taboo for others to barge in without permission. If he disturbed the master, he would probably be reprimanded. Ruyi wanted to follow him in to explain, but the study door slammed shut again.

How dare she push the door again? She thought: Forget it, the master hates rude people the most. This kid is so ignorant of etiquette, he will be disliked by the master sooner or later!

"Xiao Ye?" Qing Yi entered the study and saw Ye Qingyu sitting at the desk reading seriously.

"Huh? Are you back?" Ye Qingyu had heard the noise at the door a long time ago.

"Yes, take a look, do you like it?" Qing Yi smiled and took out the hairband and handed it to Ye Qingyu.

"What is this?" Ye Qingyu put down the scroll in his hand and looked at what Qing Yi handed over. It was a moon-white headband with dark patterns carefully crocheted with gold and blue silk threads. Although it looked exquisite, it was far inferior to the one he used.

"I gave it to you."

"I don't need these things, why should I buy them?"

"Of course I know you have everything you need. The Little Prince of the Northwest has everything he wants. But I eat your food and drink your drinks, so I have to give you something, otherwise I will really become the Little Prince of the Northwest's male favorite." Qing Yi joked.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Ye Qingyu glared at Qingyi. They were in love with each other, so how could they be in a relationship of male concubine? Qingyi had such a naughty mouth!

"Hahaha, I heard that the headbands you wear are all embroidered by Ruyi? It's a pity that I don't have the free time, otherwise I would embroider one for you myself. You'll have to make do with this one for now." Qing Yi said with a little regret.

"You? You really don't have time?" Ye Qingyu smiled slightly and exposed Qing Yi's excuse.

"Hehe, my master never taught me embroidery." Qing Yi once again attributed the fact that he didn't have any skills to the fact that his master didn't teach him.

"Your master..." Ye Qingyu couldn't help but imagine, could Master Mo know embroidery? That picture was really a bit incongruous.

"Haha, next time I see my master, I'll ask him if he can do it?" Qing Yi said with a smile.

I really admire Qing Yi. He even included his own master in the plot.

"What book are you reading?" Qing Yi asked curiously. He never liked reading, but Ye Qingyu loved it very much and would take time out to spend some time in the study almost every day. Usually, Qing Yi would not come to disturb him at this time.

"Mechanical techniques."

"It looks quite complicated. Why should I read it?" Qing Yi picked up the book and flipped through a few chapters. There were pictures and words in it, but they were all about mechanisms and formations. He couldn't understand it at all.

"Do you remember the formations we encountered at Yunyin Peak? It's always good to know more about them." Ye Qingyu explained.

"Oh, those formations are really powerful. After reading this book, do you understand formations?" Qing Yi asked curiously.

"Learn slowly, and you'll understand it better." Ye Qingyu already knew some formations, but he had never delved into them in detail. He had some free time recently, so he decided to read some books on the subject. Some of these books were collected by the King of the Northwest, some were given by the Martial Saint, and some were given by his master.

"You read yours, I'll read for a while too." Qing Yi was rarely serious for a moment, thinking that Xiao Ye was reading, so why couldn't he read with him?

"Hmm?" Ye Qingyu looked at Qing Yi in surprise. He actually said he wanted to read a book? This was really beyond his expectation.

"Hey, learning more is always good." Qing Yi repeated what Ye Qingyu had just said. At this moment, he was in a very good mood. He thought that Xiao Ye waited for him to finish cultivating his internal strength last night, so why couldn't he accompany him to read?

Seeing this, Ye Qingyu stopped paying attention to Qingyi and let him browse the books in the study. She thought, if he browses more, he can at least learn some literature, right?

The two of them read in the study without disturbing each other. After nearly an hour, Ye Qingyu felt a little hungry. He put down the book and thought of Qing Yi. Why is this person not moving at all? He turned his head and saw that Qing Yi was breathing evenly, leaning against the bookshelf, sitting on the floor and had fallen asleep.

"..." Ye Qingyu picked up the book Qing Yi had dropped and placed it on the table. Then, he squatted down and stared at the sleeping face of the person in front of him. The boy's usual lively demeanor was completely subdued when he slept, appearing extremely quiet. His long eyelashes cast a shadow on his cheeks, making one want to reach out and touch him.

The young prince of the Northwest looked at Qing Yi, his beloved, as if he were appreciating a famous painting, until those slender and bright eyes opened.

"Hmm, Xiaoye?" Qingyi hadn't slept at all last night, and he'd spent most of the morning wandering around. The scent of books in the study had become a perfect soothing remedy. He'd barely been reading for a quarter of an hour when he felt sleepy and fell asleep against the bookshelf. When he opened his eyes, he met Ye Qingyu's, and he rubbed his sleepy eyes.

"Awake?" Ye Qingyu looked at Qingyi with a little doting.

"Yeah." Qing Yi responded, leaned his head over and leaned on Ye Qingyu's shoulder, as if he was still asleep.
