Chapter 1005 Seeking an Audience with the Eastern Palace
When the prince heard that the famous editor Shao from the Hanlin Academy came to see him with his wife, he was very surprised.
After a moment's hesitation, he ordered the two men to come.
My father has said in the court that if Editor Shao has any difficulties, he can come to me or the princes. Now that he is here, I cannot refuse to see him.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan followed the eunuch from the Prince's Mansion through a long corridor and several courtyards, and finally came to a flower hall that was neither too big nor too small and was elegantly and luxuriously decorated.
Sitting on the main seat in the hall was a middle-aged man wearing a turmeric-colored round-necked robe with a dragon pattern. His features were gentle, elegant, and noble. I realized that this was the prince, so I stepped forward and kowtowed to greet him.
The prince smiled slightly, raised his hand and said gently, "Stand up, and I will allow you to sit down."
"Thank you, Prince!"
Shao Yunduan stood up and tried to help Qiao Xuan.
When he turned around, he was stunned.
Qiao Xuan was in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking, and did not move.
Shao Yunduan quickly held her arm tightly and whispered, "Madam, Madam!"
He called out several times in a row, and finally raised his voice helplessly, before Qiao Xuan suddenly came back to her senses.
Qiao Xuan was stunned for a moment, and quickly apologized: "I have been disrespectful, please forgive me, Your Highness."
"It's okay, get up!"
The prince remained gentle, and genuinely didn't mind at all.
The prince's thought was simple: Qiao was a woman who had never seen the world, so it was understandable that she would feel nervous and lose her composure when she suddenly saw him.
As the crown prince, he has always been kind and benevolent. How could he blame someone for such a small matter?
Qiao Xuan thanked him, but her legs still looked a little weak. Shao Yunduan was full of suspicion, and like the prince, he thought she was nervous, so he gave her a concerned look and helped her sit down.
The prince saw all of this, and felt secretly moved in his heart, and he began to like Shao Yunduan even more.
He is loyal and affectionate, and never abandons his wife. It seems that he is not seeking fame and reputation, but he really cares about his wife.
Whether you are sincere or not, you can’t deceive people with details.
Neither of them knew that when Qiao Xuan knelt down to pay her respects, her head buzzed and some images of the Crown Prince subconsciously appeared in her mind.
Perhaps because of the prince's noble status, those images were not as clear as the previous images of the other two people, and seemed a little blurry, but Qiao Xuan was sure that it was the prince.
And if all that is true, the prince did not become the emperor in the end. It seems that his ending is not so good.
Qiao Xuan secretly regretted it. When she saw this scene, her heart skipped a beat and then all the images disappeared.
If I had known she could control her mind, I would have watched more.
But even if they only saw these, it was enough to be a bolt from the blue and enough to make Qiao Xuan's heart tremble.
She forced herself to put aside the distractions and cheer herself up.
Fortunately, the prince did not blame me for this.
However, thinking of his not-so-good ending, Qiao Xuan couldn't help but feel a little choked up and reluctant.
The prince glanced at the two of them, smiled gently and asked, "Shao Bianxiu wants to see me, what is it about?"
Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan looked at each other and were about to stand up to reply, but the prince smiled and raised his hand to suppress them: "Sit down and go back. There is no need for so many false formalities in front of me."
"Yes, thank you, Your Highness! I heard that there is something wrong with the peonies in the palace. What a coincidence! My wife is good at planting and nurturing flowers. Maybe, maybe she can find a way to save them."
It’s a new month, sisters, please give me your monthly votes!
