Chapter 3 Chapter 3 I was scolded on the first day of meeting
After taking the imperial physician to examine Daiyu, Wu Tianyue read in the room with peace of mind.
By the time lights were turned on, Wu Tianyue saw that the system could not produce any extra data, so he angrily blocked it and stood up to ask casually, "Is Miss Lin asleep?"
The little maidservant in the room said, "I heard Sister Lu Chen say that the young lady had not rested yet at the last hour of the tenth hour. She would remind her before the last hour of the fifth hour."
"Why aren't you resting yet?" Wu Tianyue muttered and walked out.
Seeing that the light was still on in Daiyu's room, he raised his hand and knocked on the door: "It's getting dark, it's time to rest."
Lu Chen recognized Wu Tianyue's voice. Seeing Daiyu startled by the sound, he smiled and explained, "The young master must have heard that the young lady hadn't rested yet, so he came to check on her."
Although Daiyu heard that the princess was a good friend of her mother, she had not been in contact with her for many years and did not even show up when her mother died. It seemed that they did not have a very close relationship.
The prince, who should have been seriously ill, looked better than herself and cared about her so much. Everything about him was strange, and she felt that the prince had bad intentions.
But then she changed her mind and thought, what was there to worry about for the royal palace to go to such great lengths for the daughter of a mere salt inspector? She had no choice but to endure it.
But recently I have been very worried about my father's affairs. I haven't been able to rest well and I'm in a bad mood. I am very anxious when I am away from the familiar environment and people.
When he was interrupted while reading, he got angry when he heard Lu Chen's words. He put down the book and stood up to go out.
Lu Chen hurriedly followed her out and opened the door of the outer room to let her out.
Wu Tianyue saw someone coming out and was about to speak when Daiyu asked, "Is the young master free?"
Her tone was not as gentle as before, but Wu Tianyue didn't notice it at all and nodded, "Yes."
"Your Highness, I have something to say to you." Daiyu went out, walked around him and went to the hall.
The window in the hall was open, and it was dark outside. The winter wind, mixed with moisture, blew on his body, making him feel cold. Lu Chen hurried forward and closed the window.
When Wu Tianyue saw this, he remembered that Daiyu was not feeling well, so he asked someone to bring a hand warmer.
Daiyu had been suspicious of his actions today, and after hearing his instructions, she said coldly, "What do you want me to do, Your Highness?"
"Ah?" Wu Tianyue was stunned when she asked, "No."
"I'll be frank," Daiyu said in a respectful yet cold tone, "Your Highness and I have never met before. Today is just our first meeting. I'm afraid your actions have crossed the line."
She suspected him of having ulterior motives. Wu Tianyue was about to retort, but then realized that he did have ulterior motives. He didn't know why, so he silently released the system: [Others can't know about saving the heroine, but the heroine should know.]
As soon as he finished speaking, the system issued a sharp cry: [No, no, the heroine must not know. If she knows, we will die together.]
"Why am I increasingly feeling like you're a villain?" Wu Tianyue asked the system using the words he had learned.
The ending of this book is a tragic warning to the world. Those of us who change the ending at the readers' request are villains in the world consciousness. It's only because the energy of our small world is unstable that the laws of nature in this world make an exception and allow us in.
He said something I didn't understand, Wu Tianyue complained silently, but for the sake of his own life, he hid it from Daiyu, clasped his hands in front of his chest and snorted coldly: "If my mother and your mother were not close friends, why would I care about you?"
Daiyu didn't believe him at all, thinking he was just trying to fool her. Furthermore, although she had been living under someone else's roof since she was little, she was still loved by Grandmother Jia, a favor not even enjoyed by the young ladies of the Jia family. Furthermore, she was only ten years old now. Provoked by his words, she no longer cared about status and sneered, "Sir, don't force yourself. Whether I sleep or not is none of your business."
After saying that, he left everyone and went into the house.
Lu Chen hurried to catch up, and Daiyu glanced at her: "Close the door."
"Yes." Lu Chen had already listened to the princess's instructions and put Daiyu first in everything, so he closed the door obediently.
Wu Tianyue had never been ridiculed like this before, and he didn't react for a moment. He watched her enter the house and was about to curse her in anger.
"She's just a little kid. It's normal for her to say something she doesn't want to say when she's angry. You're almost twelve, so you're definitely more sensible than she is." The system hurriedly advised, "And think about what the imperial physician said. She needs to stay calm. If you argue with her and she gets upset, what will happen to your mission?"
After hearing this, Wu Tianyue swallowed his anger, said "I won't argue with you", and walked back to his room with heavy steps.
Back in the room, Wu Tianyue was furious: "This stinky girl, do you think I'm willing to take care of her?"
"The young lady may not believe what I said." Lan Ye advised, "But that's normal. She and I have never met before, and I don't have any evidence. Besides, this is an urgent matter, and the princess has not met the young lady yet."
After hearing this, Wu Tianyue remembered that his mother had given him several handkerchiefs, saying that they had poems written by Jia Min on them, so he hurriedly asked Lan Ye to find them.
After Lan Ye came, Wu Tianyue hesitated whether to apologize, but then he thought that she had just scolded him, and he bumped into her, wouldn’t that be embarrassing?
Besides, it should be okay if he doesn't tell her today. He can tell her tomorrow. After convincing himself, Wu Tianyue washed up and went to bed with peace of mind.
At midnight, I was sleeping soundly when I was woken up by Lan Ye.
"What's the matter?" Wu Tianyue hugged the quilt and squinted his eyes at Lan Ye, "I still have to practice martial arts tomorrow."
"Miss Lin hasn't rested yet, I'll go check on her."
"Didn't she tell me not to take care of it?" Wu Tianyue lay down angrily, "Sleep as you like."
Lan Ye pulled him hard: "I think Miss Lin can't bear it any longer. Have you forgotten what the princess told you before you set off?"
Wu Tianyue thought of Daiyu's frail body, sighed, resigned himself to his fate, got up, put on his coat and went to Daiyu.
Walking to the window and looking at the figure reflected by the candlelight, Wu Tianyue thought to himself, this little girl is too stubborn. He cleared his throat and was about to speak when he heard a voice from inside: "If you are sick, go see a doctor. Don't disturb me while I'm reading."
Wu Tianyue suppressed his anger and said, "I was wrong. Go to sleep now."
"What's wrong, my lord? This ship is yours, you can do whatever you want."
"Don't you just not believe what I say?" Wu Tianyue was so angry that his face was ferocious, but he still controlled his emotions and handed her the handkerchief, "This is a gift from your mother to my mother."
"Then why haven't I heard mother mention it?" Zijuan went out to take it, and Daiyu said from inside, "Besides, I haven't seen anyone come to your house in the past few years since I came to Beijing."
"My father doesn't have a good relationship with that family. If my father hadn't been away on an important matter and hadn't heard that your father was seriously ill, my mother would have been worried about you going to Yangzhou alone. Since you happened to be going the same way as us, I wouldn't have bothered to care about you."
After hearing this, Daiyu realized that Prince Zhongshun must be doing something secret and using Wu Tianyue as an excuse, but she was still skeptical. However, apart from this reason, she could not find any other explanation for his actions. She looked at the handwriting on the handkerchief again. Although it was a little childish, it was indeed her mother's.
"So you should get some rest." Wu Tianyue advised, "Otherwise, if my mother finds out, I'll be scolded again."
Wu Tianyue gave in, and Daiyu's doubts were temporarily resolved. The inexplicable anger in her heart also disappeared. Sleepiness came over her. She stood up and knelt through the window to salute: "I have wronged the prince. I am sorry."
Wu Tianyue was a little surprised that she would apologize, but he accepted it with a good attitude. Just as he was about to take the opportunity to mock her, he saw Daiyu slam the window shut.
Immediately afterwards, the candlelight in the room went out. Wu Tianyue was startled and woke up from his sleepiness. But he was afraid of disturbing her if he spoke, and he would be angry if he didn't speak. So he had to go to the leisure room on the next floor to practice martial arts to vent his anger.
After dawn, Wu Tianyue got up as usual and ordered people to clean up the room from yesterday to use as a martial arts training room. After finishing his daily martial arts lessons, he prepared to return to the room to wash up.
As soon as they walked upstairs, Lan Ye suddenly said, "Master, go and urge Miss Lin to get up. She needs to eat three meals a day on time."
"Why me?" Wu Tianyue said speechlessly, "I'm not her maid."
"Miss Lin is the master, and we servants can only give her advice verbally."
The system was about to let out some fresh air every day, and said with a smile: "Go quickly! If she breaks down, you'll be the one who suffers."
Wu Tianyue had no choice but to wake Daiyu up with a bitter face.
Daiyu was exhausted yesterday and was sound asleep when Wu Tianyue knocked on the door, waking her up. She asked Zijuan, "Who is it?"
"It's the prince, he's here to wake the girl up."
"Yesterday I was urged to go to bed, but today I won't sleep," Daiyu said angrily. "How can he have so much time?"
Zijuan had never seen Daiyu so blunt and blunt with anyone before. She had always been sarcastic towards Baoyu before. Upon hearing this, she smiled and said, "It's time for you to get up, young lady. I've been to the kitchen twice to ask when the medicinal food will be served."
When Daiyu heard about the medicinal food, her bad mood disappeared instantly. Although this man was rude and spoke rudely, he was really good to her. She couldn't sleep at this time, so she got up and washed.
Seeing this, Lu Chen hurried to tell the kitchen to serve the food, and Zijuan happily went out to fetch water.
Wu Tianyue saw that the room was busy and knew that Daiyu had woken up. He stretched himself and prepared to take a bath and eat, but he saw that the medicinal food served was very light.
He turned his eyes and said to Lan Ye, "It's a rare nice day today. Why don't we eat in the living room? I'll have dinner with Sister Lin."
Lan Ye didn't know what he was thinking, but she could tell at a glance that he had bad intentions. She patiently advised, "Miss Lin is weak. Even if the weather is good, the wind in the hall is still cold."
"Don't I have several pieces of clothing made of flowing brocade? I'll tear them apart and use them to block the windows," Wu Tianyue said. "That fabric is comfortable to wear, yet extremely windproof. It's warm to the touch in winter and cool in summer. She definitely won't feel cold."
Don't you know how precious Liuguang brocade is? Even the concubines in the palace only have one or two clothes made of that brocade!
Lan Ye complained in her heart, but she still reminded him respectfully: "You still have to have dinner with the prince today."
"My father is so busy, I'll just go and have a meal. Just send someone to tell him." Wu Tianyue said, muttering a few more words, "I don't want to listen to his nagging and endure the flattery of those beautiful women."
Prince Zhongshun had been married for many years without a child. After the princess gave birth to Wu Tianyue, several daughters were born in the harem. Before going out this time, he heard that another concubine was pregnant, so Prince Zhongshun always thought that Wu Tianyue was his lucky star and couldn't help but spoil him a little.
Lan Ye knew this very well, so she stopped trying to persuade him. She ordered someone to report to King Zhongshun, and personally led people to find the Liuguang brocade prepared to make clothes for Wu Tianyue to seal the windows.
