Chapter 119 Prostitute
Xie Chengyan's action was beyond her expectations and really stunned her. She spoke in a hurry and didn't care about whether he was a prince or not.
Across from him, Xie Chengyan smiled with an ambiguous smile, gently placing the blueprint to his side. Facing Ye Lanzhou's irritated question, he said calmly, "Shouldn't I be the one asking you this? I told you not to act like this in front of me, and you ignored me?"
Every time she did something behind his back, she looked so seductive, and he could see through her face that was trying to hide something.
Ye Lanzhou was stunned for a moment. Thinking back, he seemed to have said something similar. It was just a habit brought from the market, and it was difficult to change it all at once. She didn't think it was a bad habit. She could just say some nice words to make things go away. What a good thing.
She raised her head and said to Xie Chengyan, "So what if I look like this? I come from the countryside and don't know much. Your Highness wants to deprive me of even this little freedom?"
"I don't care what you do, but don't say such things again." Xie Chengyan's expression was serious. He had a noble status since he was a child, and the majesty in his bones could not be erased. At this moment, his cold face made Ye Lanzhou feel a little afraid.
Xie Chengyan continued, "Do you know what kind of people in the capital would say something like that?"
Ye Lanzhou shook his head.
"prostitute."
The snow was falling heavily, and the eunuchs in the palace were supposed to be on duty in various places. Although they could not rest, they had nothing to do. They just stayed in their respective places and had some free time without their master giving them any orders.
But now the snow was above people's knees, and the palace was full of nobles. It was not a good idea for the masters to get covered in snow when they walked around, so they picked up big brooms as tall as people and started sweeping the courtyards. Some waterways were frozen, so they asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs for some vinegar and salt to sprinkle on the ice, which melted into water in a short while.
The two young eunuchs took advantage of the supervisor not coming and saw that the cleaning was almost done, so they leaned against the eaves and chatted. The taller one was called Ah Cheng. He put his hands in his pockets and said, "The snow fell really early this year."
Another young eunuch was so cold that he rubbed his hands and looked at the falling snow. He replied, "Yes, it's falling so fast and so heavily. It just keeps coming up again if we don't sweep it away. It's really weird."
Ah Cheng smiled slyly, raised his eyebrows and asked him, "Do you know what people in the palace are saying?"
The young eunuch shook his head.
Ah Cheng glanced around and lowered his voice, fearing that others might overhear. "They say the snow this year is the manifestation of the Heavenly Family's ancestors, bidding farewell to Princess Mingyi!"
The young eunuch took a moment to react and asked, "Princess Mingyi? Is she going to marry someone from Southern Xinjiang?"
"Isn't it! I heard the exchange officer say that when I came here!" Ah Cheng nodded vigorously. "Aren't the cabinet and the Ministry of Rites busy preparing the eldest princess's dowry? They say the ancestors of the royal family are also here to support the marriage. That's right. If the eldest princess is married, the Yin Kingdom will be peaceful. There will be no more wars, and everyone can live their lives in peace. How wonderful."
The young eunuch was still young, spending all day on internal martial arts duty, and he didn't even recognize his masters. How could he know these things? However, he had heard a little about the recent commotion regarding the marriage, so he simply nodded and said, "It's true, but it's a pity for the eldest princess. She's all alone, how can she have an easy life?"
Ah Cheng sighed and said, "That's true, but this time Princess Mingyi took the initiative to go. Only the courage of the ancestors of the royal family can show such courage."
