Xia Qingchen sat on the stool again, looking down at her who was still sitting on the ground, and continued: "You said you appeared here as soon as you woke up, so where did you come from?"
She blinked. "Do you believe me when I say I jumped out from a crack in the rock?"
"Um?"
Seeing that he was obviously unhappy, she dared not talk nonsense anymore and said, "I should be considered to be from another world. Although I don't know where this place is, it is very similar to the ancient times I have seen on TV before."
"Television? Ancient times?"
She gestured quickly and said, "The TV is a small box of this shape. You can put a lot of things in it, such as cartoons, TV series..."
She suddenly paused, scratched her head, and said in distress: "I forgot that you haven't seen this thing either. I don't know how to put it. Anyway, it's something you don't have here. In ancient times, it was a term for places like yours."
Xia Qingchen seemed to understand what he said, but not quite.
Jiang Muyu knew from the look on his face that all he had said was in vain. He was only in the fourth grade of primary school and his knowledge was limited, so he couldn't explain it clearly.
"When I grow up, I will enroll in a major related to art, and then I can come here and draw it for you."
After the last time, she felt that she could travel back and forth between the two worlds, all she had to do was sleep and wake up.
Although he didn't quite understand this sentence, Xia Qingchen still nodded. He didn't want to be looked down upon by this little girl.
Jiang Muyu asked at this time: "What dynasty is this place from?"
Liang Qingchen said: "You are now in a private residence in the imperial capital of Xuan Cang State. I am the crown prince of Xuan Cang State."
What dynasty was Xuancang Kingdom from?
Jiang Muyu was confused. The last time she came here, she didn't even know which dynasties there were in history, so she asked her aunt to help her look up the historical dynasty list. However, she found that there was no such country at all. She thought she remembered it wrong, but when she asked Xia Qingchen again, she still got the same answer.
The little head is filled with big doubts.
Suddenly, her stomach made a rumbling sound.
Xia Qingchen couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Are you hungry?"
She touched her belly and smiled awkwardly, "Hey, I didn't even have dinner when I went to bed."
"Okay, I'll treat you to a meal for now."
After saying this, Xia Qingchen stood up and went out to tell Maoxian a few words, then came back and said to her, "Wait a moment, I've asked someone to bring the food over."
"Thank you."
"You're welcome." Xia Qingchen walked over to the imperial concubine's couch and sat down. He looked at her and said, "Why are you still sitting on the floor? Don't you mind the dirt?"
Only then did she remember that she had been sitting on the ground talking to him, so she stood up and patted her butt.
"I have seen you three times, and you have always been wearing the same clothes. Don't you have any other clothes?"
Jiang Muyu shook her head. "I was wearing this when I came here. I don't even know why. And with my hair style, I can't possibly tie it up myself."
She now has a bun on her head, which is a style commonly worn by unmarried women. This kind of bun is the most popular in Tiangan Kingdom at the moment, while the women of Xuancang often wear a bun called Lingyun.
Moreover, the material of her clothes was Shu brocade, which was unique to Tiangan Kingdom. He had seen his mother wearing this kind of dress, which was made of cloth that was tributed from Tiangan.
He recalled the Tiangan envoys he had met. Those people were received by the emperor's uncle, and he had only seen them at palace banquets. Among them was a little girl, who was Princess Wushuang of the Tiangan Kingdom.
But he had never seen the little girl in front of him before. Judging from her dress and demeanor, she didn't look like an ordinary girl from an ordinary family. How did she get from Tiangan Kingdom to Xuancang?
If the previous two encounters were purely coincidental, then this time she went straight into his bedroom. It seemed that he had to check it out.
Soon, there was a knock on the door. Xia Qingchen asked, "What's the matter?"
Maoxian's voice came from outside the door: "Your Highness, the meal is ready. Shall we bring it in for you?"
"Wait a moment."
Xia Qingchen glanced at her and said, "If you don't want to be caught right away, find a place to hide immediately."
"Okay." Jiang Muyu picked up her skirt and ran into the inner room.
She saw a large cupboard and tried to open it but found it was locked, so she had to look elsewhere.
She wanted to hide under the bed, but found that the space under the large carved wooden bed was extremely narrow, and it was very difficult for her to hide in it with her small body.
Seeing her spinning around like a top, unable to find a suitable hiding place for a long time, Xia Qingchen sighed helplessly: "Really... stupid!"
He walked in, grabbed her by the back of her collar and pushed her behind the screen beside the bed, and whispered, "Stand here and don't make a sound."
Jiang Muyu closed her mouth, made a zipper-like motion at her lips, and then made an "OK" gesture to him.
Xia Qingchen looked at her strange behavior and couldn't help but twitch his eyes.
Then he came out from the inner room and said to the outside, "Bring it in."
Maoxian then opened the door and let in the maid who was serving the dishes.
A row of waitresses came in with trays of fish, walked to the table, put down the dishes, and then walked around the table with the trays to him. The others did the same one by one.
Finally, after all the maids placed the dishes in their hands on the table, they bowed to him in unison.
Xia Qingchen said: "Back off."
"Yes." Then they all left the bedroom and closed the door.
The noise outside gradually faded away, and Xia Qingchen walked into the inner room and saw Jiang Muyu squatting on the ground like a quail.
"What are you doing squatting?"
Jiang Muyu looked up when he heard the voice and smiled awkwardly: "I'm so hungry, I'm afraid it won't listen and will reveal its food if it barks suddenly, so I squatted down to prevent it from barking."
Xia Qingchen was amused, her beautiful eyes slightly curved, "What kind of logic is this? If I squat, it won't bark?"
"I think so... I don't know..."
Xia Qingchen couldn't help but say, "How stupid."
Although Jiang Muyu was not from this era, he understood that the prince held a very powerful status here, so when he was called stupid, he did not dare to refute as righteously as before.
I thought: Whatever he says is what it is.
"The food is ready, come out and eat," he said.
Jiang Muyu suddenly reached out his hand to him.
"What?" He was puzzled.
"Your Highness, please give me a hand. My legs seem to be numb from squatting."
Xia Qingchen's eyes changed as he looked at her.
Jiang Muyu sighed, "Okay, I know you're going to call me stupid again. Why do you think I'm in the hospital? It's because I'm too weak. My legs are numb after squatting for just two times."
Xia Qingchen took out a handkerchief from his arms, wrapped his hands with it, and then stretched it out for her to hold.
Jiang Muyu curled her lips, grabbed his hand and stood up, "Is it that serious? Am I poisoned?"
Xia Qingchen shook the handkerchief and said, "You just wiped your nose with your hand."
It turns out that this person has a mysophobia. She said she could understand that because her mother also had a mysophobia when she was alive. She would clean up any garbage on the ground immediately and never kept pets at home.
Jiang Muyu stretched his legs and walked out of the inner room only after he felt the numbness was less severe.
There was a wide variety of dishes on the table outside, including a whole roast chicken and pork knuckle!
Her eyes lit up and her mouth watered. "It looks delicious. You are worthy of being the Crown Prince. I don't usually get to eat these things."
As she said this, she sat down and couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks to pick up the food.
Xia Qingchen wrinkled his nose in disgust and said, "Don't you wash your hands?"
Jiang Muyu had just stuffed a mouthful of chicken in his mouth. Hearing this, he pulled the corners of his mouth awkwardly and said incoherently: "Is it too late for me to wash now?"
He frowned, pointed to the golden basin on the shelf in the corner, and said, "There is clean water there."
Jiang Muyu had no choice but to chew and swallow the food in his mouth, then walked over and washed his hands obediently.
As soon as I saw the basin, I couldn't help but complain in my heart: "Rich people have so many troubles. Damn, they are so rich that even their wash basin is made of gold!"
