Xiao Moyan was silent for a long time, but then he slowly said, "The emperor has driven the beauty away. How does he intend to compensate me?"
Ji Xingzhi was stunned when she heard this. She didn't blame her for sneaking out of the palace, but she blamed her for driving Xu Jing away? Did the emperor's uncle really want to marry Xu Jing? Ji Xingzhi looked at Xiao Moyan's handsome face, and her heart suddenly turned sour. What should she do? She was only one year old, and it would take fourteen years for her to reach the age of marriage. She couldn't let the emperor's uncle wait for her for fourteen years. What if the emperor's uncle liked someone else?
Many years later, Ji Xingzhi discovered that from the moment she first saw him in Zhaosheng Palace, she had been poisoned by a chronic poison called Xiao Moyan, which would not kill her but would make her life worse than death.
Ji Xingzhi stretched out her short arms and hugged Xiao Moyan's neck, saying softly, "Uncle, kiss."
Before he finished speaking, Ji Xingzhi kissed Xiao Moyan's face with her little mouth.
Xiao Moyan raised his eyebrows slightly, motionless, as if asking: Is this compensation?
The eunuch, who had been sitting there like a wooden man for a long time, twitched his lips: The emperor is taking advantage of the prince again. I don’t know how many times the emperor has taken advantage of the prince in the past six months.
Yu Xi secretly tightened his grip on his sword, and finally slowly let go, his face cold to the extreme.
In the afternoon, Ji Xingzhi had dinner in the palace, and the meal was so delicious. The bamboo forest delicacies and the handsome imperial uncle really complemented each other. If they had two pots of sake, it would have been even more meaningful.
After dinner, Xiao Moyan took Ji Xingzhi to the room. The eunuch went out to buy clothes and other things, while Liu Yang and Yu Xi went to practice martial arts.
Xiao Moyan seemed to be very busy. After taking Ji Xingzhi to the room, he sat at the desk and looked through the memorials without even raising his eyelids.
Ji Xingzhi curled her lips and said, "Don't think I'll give you a raise just because you work hard."
Ji Xingzhi did not disturb Xiao Moyan from doing his work. He walked around the room by himself, looking at this room that was neither too big nor too small.
The wooden room had traditional carved and hollowed wooden doors and windows, with light blue door curtains and drapes hung on them. The furnishings in the room were extremely sparse, with only an adult-sized shelf on which were placed different types of books.
In front of the shelf is a desk, which is filled with memorials. Next to it are a purple clay pen holder, a purple clay ink nest, and the four treasures of a room. Then there is a plain low couch near the door and a low table in front of the couch. On the low table is a purple clay teapot and tea set, with steam still rising from the spout of the pot.
In addition, there is a small white porcelain bottle with a green bamboo branch inserted in the bottle. This bamboo branch is the only decoration in the whole room.
Ji Xingzhi really couldn't understand why the emperor's uncle loved bamboo so much. Even the decoration in the room was bamboo. Ji Xingzhi walked over and found that the bamboo leaves seemed a little strange. But after staring at the bamboo leaves in the vase for a long time, until her eyes were sore, she still couldn't figure out what was going on.
Ji Xingzhi walked up to Xiao Moyan with small steps, feeling bored. She jumped up lightly and landed on his back. She whispered softly into his ear, "Uncle~"
Xiao Moyan remained unmoved, still handling his official duties at a leisurely pace, and uttered a nasal sound: "Hmm?"
"Uncle, can you take Xingzhi out to play?" Ji Xingzhi asked softly.
Xiao Moyan paused, undoing what he had just done, then turned around and lifted Ji Xingzhi up to him, placing her on his lap. "What's wrong? Are you bored of staying here with your uncle?"
