Chapter 412 You and I are worlds apart
For a moment, the game room was extremely quiet, and the only sound could be heard: Yuan Xiaonian disassembling the Luban Ball.
Yuan Baoyu ran forward again, squatted opposite Yuan Xiaonian, and watched his fingers moving quickly.
Li Suining was also stunned. The speed of the second prince was much faster than her eyes could open.
She secretly glanced at Sister Fuxing, and it was obvious that Fuxing was also watching attentively.
Time passed little by little, and Yuan Xiaonian had finished dismantling the machine. He raised one corner of his mouth slightly, looking completely confident of victory.
Sure enough, the whole process went very smoothly. Every piece Yuan Xiaonian picked up was assembled successfully. Although he was blindfolded, he seemed to see more clearly than anyone else.
Soon, with the last piece put in place, a perfect Luban ball appeared before everyone's eyes again.
Li Suining and Yuan Baoyu were both stunned, their eyes were rounder than Lu Ban's balls, and they were speechless for a long time.
Yuan Xiaonian tore off the black cloth on his eyes and was about to say something when he saw Yuan Huaihong standing at the door.
The smile on his face disappeared instantly. He was so focused that he didn't notice someone coming.
He quickly put down the Luban ball in his hand, stood up and said respectfully, "Your Highness!"
Li Suining and Yuan Baoyu came to their senses, looked back, and saw Yuan Huaihong. They immediately stood up and ran over.
"Brother Prince!" two little kids shouted at the same time.
Yuan Huaihong withdrew his gaze and at the same time concealed the surprise in his eyes. Obviously, he saw everything Yuan Huaihong had just done. He really didn't expect that Yuan Huaihong was so smart now.
"Good boy!" Yuan Huaihong quickly regained his composure and pinched Yuan Baoyu's little face. "Why are you so thin, Baoyu? Haven't you been eating well these days?"
"Mother makes me study every day. I am unhappy and can't eat." The little fat boy said crying.
Yuan Huaihong chuckled, "So what do you want to eat in the East Palace today? The prince will ask the kitchen to prepare it for you."
"Okay." Yuan Baoyu squinted his eyes happily.
Yuan Huaihong turned to Li Suining again, "Sister Suining, can I come in?"
"Of course, Prince brother, come in quickly." Li Suining and Yuan Baoyu pulled Yuan Huaihong in from the left and right.
Yuan Huaihong walked up to Yuan Xiaonian, bent down and picked up the largest Lu Ban ball on the ground.
He had spent three or four days studying this Luban ball before he finally figured it out, but just now...
He looked up at Yuan Xiaonian and asked, "Second brother, is this your first time playing?"
"I just saw them playing, so I tried it." Yuan Xiaonian was a little annoyed, thinking that he was so stupid just now.
Li Suining and Yuan Baoyu didn't know what Yuan Xiaonian was thinking, but everything that had just happened made them admire Yuan Xiaonian a lot.
The two of them rushed to tell Yuan Huaihong.
"Crown Prince, the Second Prince is amazing. He can put this together with his eyes closed."
"Yes, and there was not a single mistake in the middle. I couldn't do it even if I opened my eyes wide."
Yuan Baoyu even asked, "Brother Crown Prince, can you fight with your eyes closed?"
Yuan Xiaonian wanted to shut Yuan Baoyu's mouth.
Yuan Huaihong smiled and shook his head, "This prince really can't do it. I didn't expect that the second brother is actually a master of Luban ball."
"It's just a coincidence." Yuan Xiaonian kept his head down.
Yuan Huaihong didn't say anything else. After saying hello to Fuxing, he left quickly.
Several people continued to play together.
Yuan Baoyu approached Yuan Xiaonian in a servile manner and said, "Second brother, please teach me, how did you do that just now?"
Yuan Xiaonian glared at him unhappily, and without saying a word, the little fat man crawled away in shame.
When Yuan Baoyu passed by Li Suining, he didn't forget to whisper to her, "Huh, I don't like Second Brother anymore. Second Brother is so bad."
Li Suining chuckled a few times because she noticed that Yuan Baoyu now started calling her second brother.
The little ones had a lot of fun the whole day. Yuan Huaihong even arranged for them to have lunch in the game room, and there were only a few of them there.
In the afternoon, Chunxiang from Yonghua Palace came to pick someone up.
"I don't want to go back." Yuan Baoyu cried and said heartbreakingly that he would not leave.
"Your Highness the Fifth Prince, please don't make things difficult for me. The Queen is still waiting." Chunxiang kept sighing. She had no choice.
Moreover, after sending the Fifth Prince away in the morning, she saw Concubine Yi secretly wiping away tears. It was obvious that the Fifth Prince had not had a good time in the past few days, and the Empress was also very distressed.
"Brother Prince! Li Suining!" Yuan Baoyu cried breathlessly.
"Baoyu, be good and go back first. I will find time to visit your mother in the next few days." The prince coaxed softly. He felt bad seeing the happy little fat boy crying like this.
He could guess what Concubine Yi was thinking, but why?
In the past, Concubine Yi was cautious and never allowed outsiders to have similar speculations, but why did she change recently?
"Brother Baoyu, tomorrow, the prince and I will go together to persuade the empress. Don't cry, go back first." The little girl's eyes also turned red.
"Okay then, you must go." Yuan Baoyu confirmed with them again and again before leaving reluctantly.
Afterwards, Yuan Xiaonian and Fuxing also prepared to go back.
Li Suining took Sister Fuxing's hand and said, "Sister Fuxing, do you want to stay in the East Palace? Don't worry, the Crown Prince said he won't let you stargazing anymore."
Fuxing didn't shake his head to refuse, but seemed to be considering it.
"Sister Fuxing, please stay," Li Suining persuaded her even harder, seeing that there was a good chance. "Tonight, we can sleep together in the game room, or come to my place, okay?"
Finally, Fuxing nodded and agreed to stay.
"That's great!" Little Dumpling cheered.
At this time, Yuan Huaihong offered to send Yuan Xiaonian back and happened to send some clothes over.
"Your Highness, there is no need..." Yuan Xiaonian wanted to refuse.
"Let's go, stop talking." Yuan Huaihong took the lead and walked out.
Yuan Xiaonian stood there in a daze, obviously not quite understanding what Yuan Huaihong was trying to do.
Little Tuanzi went over and pushed him, "Go quickly and talk to the Crown Prince. Maybe... the Crown Prince can let you and Concubine Jing move out of the cold palace."
Yuan Xiaonian frowned. Is this possible? Would Yuan Huaihong be so kind?
The reason why Li Suining said this was because she saw that it was indeed the Crown Prince who helped to get Concubine Jing and the Second Prince out of the cold palace.
She thought of reminding her brother, the Second Prince. Perhaps, this matter could be brought forward so that Concubine Jing would suffer less.
On the way to the cold palace, Yuan Xiaonian followed Yuan Huaihong silently.
Yuan Huaihong suddenly stopped and beckoned him forward, "It's been a while since we brothers had a good chat. Come here quickly."
Yuan Xiaonian hesitated for a moment, took a few steps forward, but still kept a distance.
"Your Highness, you're joking. You're the Crown Prince, and I'm just a disgraced prince in the cold palace. You and I... are worlds apart."
Yuan Huaihong turned around and asked coldly, "Do you really think so?"
