When she met Qin Mohan's deep eyes, she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, and her whole body went cold.
At this moment.
Qin Mohan said calmly, "That's right."
"The prince's face..."
What happened to your face?
"The princess had several slashes on her face from the spray."
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Mohan quickly walked towards the house where Ye Qingcheng of the Wisteria Courtyard was located.
Thirteen quickly followed.
After Qin Mohan left.
Xiao Xin let out a heavy sigh of relief, then picked up the pastries on the ground and followed Ye Qingcheng toward her house.
Just a few dozen steps away.
Qin Mohan and Thirteen arrived at the door, but did not go in. Instead, they stood and listened to the sounds coming from inside the house.
Inside the house at this moment.
Ye Qingcheng sat in the chair, resting her chin on her hands, muttering that she was hungry.
Xiao Cui, meanwhile, stood by, constantly comforting her.
He kept glancing towards the door, looking quite anxious.
"Where has Xiao Xin been? Why has it taken her so long to get some pastries?"
At this moment.
Ye Qingcheng seemed impatient and stood up: "Ah...you lied to me, I want to go home."
As he spoke.
He rushed towards the door.
Xiao Cui was startled by the sudden situation and shouted, "Your Highness!"
Then they chased after them.
Upon hearing this, Qin Mohan, who was outside, quickly appeared and blocked the doorway.
The sudden appearance of Qin Mohan startled Ye Qingcheng, who had just run to the door. She looked up at Qin Mohan, paused for a moment, and then shouted, "Ah...a ghost!"
Immediately afterwards.
With a clever push, he shoved Qin Mohan aside and quickly rushed out of the Wisteria Courtyard.
Before Qin Mohan could even get a good look at Ye Qingcheng's face, she pushed him away, and his brows furrowed instantly.
At this moment.
Xiao Cui also chased after him, and when she saw Qin Mohan there, she quickly knelt down.
"Your Highness, this servant will go and bring the Princess back immediately."
"No need to chase anymore?"
kindness?
Upon hearing this, Xiao Cui looked up at Qin Mohan with a puzzled expression.
"I ask you, does the Queen Consort indeed have a scar on her face?"
"Yes, Your Highness."
Did you ask what happened?
"This servant asked."
What was her answer?
"The princess said it was fun."
"Fun?"
"Yes."
Upon hearing this, Qin Mohan's brows furrowed slightly once again.
After a short while...
A slight smile played at the corners of his lips.
"Fun? Very well, in that case, I, the King, will play along with you."
Upon hearing this, Thirteen frowned slightly, looking quite puzzled.
At this moment.
Xiao Cui spoke again: "Your Highness...would you like to find a royal physician to examine the Princess?"
If it weren't for the scars on her face, the princess would be truly beautiful; her appearance is absolutely stunning.
Furthermore, when the maids were washing her hair and bathing, the princess was not as dirty and disheveled as she appeared.
"Oh! What else did you discover?"
Discover?
Xiao Cui didn't understand Qin Mohan's words, but she still spoke up: "The princess's skin is as white and tender as snow, and can be described as delicate and flawless. Moreover, she has a strange floral fragrance that smells very pleasant."
"A strange floral scent?"
"Yes."
"Okay, very good."
Qin Mohan's lips curled up.
Looking at Qin Mohan's expression, Thirteen asked in confusion, "Your Highness, what's wrong...?"
Qin Mohan didn't answer, but looked at Xiao Cui: "Since the Princess Consort doesn't like it here, then you will go and serve in the Cold Courtyard."
What? Cold... Cold Courtyard?
Upon hearing this, Xiao Cui thought Qin Mohan was punishing her, and she collapsed to the ground.
At this moment.
Then Xiao Xin arrived carrying pastries.
"Your Highness."
As soon as she arrived, she knelt down as well.
"Okay! You go too."
Qin Mohan looked at Xiao Xin and said something.
Should I go too?
Xiao Xin looked at Xiao Cui with great confusion.
At this moment, Xiao Cui's face was pale and her whole body was limp.
However, Qin Mohan spoke again: "From now on, you will follow the Princess. If the Leng Courtyard needs anything, you can come to the Prince's Mansion to get it."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Cui immediately perked up.
She had previously thought that the Cold Courtyard was dilapidated and had nothing there, and that if they went there, they might end up like the princess.
But now the prince has spoken, which means that the Cold Courtyard will no longer be the Cold Courtyard, but a separate courtyard of the prince's mansion.
Thinking of this, Xiao Cui immediately replied, "Yes, Your Highness."
Qin Mohan nodded and glanced at the pastries next to Xiao Xin.
"When you go there, take these pastries with you."
"yes."
Although Xiao Xin didn't know what had happened, she had to agree to the prince's order.
After Qin Mohan finished speaking, he turned and left.
Seeing this, Thirteen followed closely behind.
"Your Highness, are you suggesting that the Princess should live in a cold, desolate place?"
"Since she doesn't want to live here, then let her continue living in the cold courtyard!"
After hearing this, Thirteen nodded and sighed.
They just thought Ye Qingcheng was crazy. Why would she choose to live in such a dilapidated and cold courtyard when there was such a nice courtyard?
Of course, a moment later.
His thought process wasn't that Ye Qingcheng was stupid, but rather that he was inherently crazy and stupid.
Why!
Thinking of this, he sighed for Ye Qingcheng.
After Qin Mohan left.
Xiao Xin asked Xiao Cui, "Sister Xiao Cui, what happened? Where is the Princess?"
"The princess has run away again. It's all your fault. It took you so long to get some pastries."
"What? The princess has run away again?"
"Yes! Now it's all over, we're all going to serve in the Cold Courtyard."
