Xiao Linting didn't expect that Jiang Qingqing was really interested in his handwriting, and he didn't deliberately stop her. He just asked a little bit, and seeing her enthusiastic response, he didn't stop her too much, and only promised to give her the tracing book next time they met.
The calligraphy class ended quickly as Jiang Qingqing tried to adapt to the strength of the brush.
The morning's Imperial College courses are basically over, and the next step is lunch.
Because of Jiang Qingqing's unique identity, Xin Juan specially asked the imperial kitchen to prepare meals for the little prince.
Jiang Chen, who had recently lived with Jiang Qingqing, had eaten his sister's lunch and ate it in the backyard.
In addition to this, there is one more thing I got today——
"Uncle, please."
Jiang Chen stood aside awkwardly, looking at Xiao Linting standing straight and not looking like he was about to sit down, he tapped his toes awkwardly.
He had been afraid of the Emperor's uncle since he was a child, and he had always tried to stay away from him as much as possible. However, during this period, as his sister became close to him, he also became close to the Emperor's uncle.
As for the frightened little Jiang Chen, he wished he couldn't have lunch today.
But everyone is here now, and if I slip away at this moment, it would seem a bit deliberate.
Xiao Linting stood behind the chair with his arms folded across his chest, turning his head to look at the little princess who was washing her hands carefully. He was completely unaware that the Third Prince next to him was so afraid of him that he wished he could skip his lunch.
"It's just lunch break, there's no need to be so restrained. If you're tired, you can sit down first. There are not so many rules here." Xiao Linting turned around. He thought he had spoken very gently.
But no matter what he said, Jiang Chen's expression beside him remained unnatural.
Jiang Qingqing had just had a calligraphy class, and because of her small hands and clumsy limbs, she got a lot of ink on her hands. The ink was very troublesome to wash off, and she had to use basin after basin of water to barely wash her hands clean.
She wiped her hands with a clean handkerchief, and turned around to see her uncle and brother standing there in an awkward stalemate.
"Why don't you eat? Eat quickly and take a nap after eating!" Jiang Qingqing didn't notice the awkward atmosphere floating in the air.
All she was thinking about now was how to find a way to trap Han Qiming at noon.
Jiang Qingqing sat down in her seat, and the palace servants beside her quickly began to serve the dishes. Her appetite was as big as ever.
Because she used her brain too much in class, her digestion speed was very fast. Although Jiang Qingqing looked elegant while eating, she ate so fast that her bowl was empty in less than half an hour.
"You guys eat first, I'm going to take a walk."
Mission accomplished!
Jiang Qingqing put down her chopsticks, turned around and ran out without waiting for Xiao Linting to say anything. Seeing that his sister had left, Jiang Chen found an excuse and ran out without even finishing half of the meal in front of him.
Xiao Linting only felt a gust of wind in front of him, and then two people, one big and one small, ran away.
The palace maids around him couldn't help but feel ashamed when they saw this.
Xiao Linting, who always ate in a graceful manner in the palace, fell into deep thought about his behavior for the first time.
Seeing that the prince was slow to eat, the palace servants did not dare to say anything and could only serve him carefully.
After another half a quarter of an hour, Xiao Linting had almost finished the problem. He asked someone to clean up the place while he walked out.
We have to catch those two kids and bring them back for a nap.
On this side, Jiang Qingqing ran out, but was soon caught up by Jiang Chen.
"Is it about to start?!" Jiang Chen's eyes no longer had the fear in them. He couldn't suppress the little thoughts that were stirring in his heart, and hurriedly urged Jiang Qingqing.
Jiang Qingqing waved her hand, signaling Jiang Chen not to be so excited.
"Be calm, we have to be calm. Nothing can be accomplished if we are so impetuous."
Even at this critical juncture, Jiang Qingqing still had time to share her mentality with Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen sighed and quickly held his breath waiting for her to continue.
"I thought about it in calligraphy class. Let's fight back. Let's do the same and make him suffer a loss."
"What do you mean?"
Jiang Qingqing touched his smooth chin and looked thoughtfully at the group of people having dinner in the side hall not far away, with a serious expression.
"When he pushed me into this, he saw the power of the Queen of Li behind Han Qingyi and thought that this matter would not become a big deal, which is exactly what he wanted. Now he pushed you into this because he found a scapegoat to take the blame for him, so he can live in peace."
Jiang Chen nodded in agreement with her.
Jiang Qingqing stopped talking suddenly here. She turned her head and looked at Jiang Chen. The sudden eye contact between the brother and sister made Jiang Chen confused for a moment.
He raised his chin and motioned for her to continue.
Jiang Qingqing just stopped talking, "I have laid out the prospects for you in such detail. According to your ideas, you think about it. We want to fight back. In the current situation, what is the best way to deal with it?"
She threw the question back to Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen imitated Jiang Qingqing's thinking movements and touched his smooth chin.
"Should we find a scapegoat so that he can have no voice to blame?" Jiang Chen thought about it. He seemed to have realized something, but also seemed not to have realized something, so his words were full of doubt.
"Yes! Look at you, you have a very smart little head!" Jiang Qingqing's reaction was very exaggerated. She clapped her hands enthusiastically, with a bright smile in her beautiful eyes.
This exaggerated praise really made Jiang Chen feel a little embarrassed and an indescribable sense of accomplishment.
"Who do you think we should look for as the scapegoat?" Seeing this, Jiang Qingqing simply threw the question again to guide Jiang Chen to think about the problem.
After all, when he grows up, in Tianqi, Jiang Qingqing can't really protect this brother all his life. She has to guide this naive brother step by step, and give him some consciousness first since his mind is still blank.
Jiang Chen tapped his chin, murmured something, and spoke cautiously.
"Choose one of those people from before the calligraphy class and stir up their emotions to kill someone with a borrowed knife?"
Jiang Chen's foundation is actually much higher than Jiang Qingqing's prediction.
Jiang Qingqing widened her eyes and watched Jiang Chen thinking. This time she really praised him from the bottom of her heart.
"Brother Royal is so awesome! The idea of killing someone with a borrowed knife is really great, it's even better than an eye for an eye!"
Jiang Chen was a little overwhelmed by the praise, his heart filled with a great sense of accomplishment. He scratched his head embarrassedly and was about to say something low-key.
The other party suddenly changed the subject and his tone became serious.
"But my Royal Brother, I think this method is a bit harsh. It can be used on Han Qiming, but if it is used in other cases, I think this method of killing someone with a borrowed knife should be considered twice."
