While trying to trick Ah Ci into cooking for her, she sent a message to Ye Jian. Ye Jian asked Ye Chen to get some incense from Imperial Physician Wen. It happened that Ah Ci took more than an hour to cook.
The time was just right. Ye Jian had just arrived at the side room and lit the incense when A Ci came in right after him.
Otherwise, she would have to think of other ways to get him away so that Ye Jian could come in.
"Princess, this isn't a good idea." Ye Jian hesitated.
After all, Ah Ci has a good relationship with Second Miss Yan. If Second Miss Yan knew about this...
"Is Prince Brother still in Yuanjing Manor?" Xuan Zhaoran supported A Ci who was glaring at her.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince originally came with Miss Yan to look for you. After receiving the jade pendant and asking Ye An to confirm the princess's safety, he returned to the capital with Miss Yan."
"What's wrong with that? The prince has already returned to the prime minister's residence. He won't know that I brought Ah Ci back to the Xuan Palace."
Xuan Zhaoran looked at A Ci in confusion, not understanding why he was still staring at her while awake.
"Xuan Zhaoran! Let go..." As soon as he opened his mouth, blood dripped onto his clothes along with his voice. The young man's dark blue robe was stained with blood, which was particularly eye-catching.
"Aci, let go." Xuan Zhaoran was so anxious that he pried his mouth open, "What are you doing?"
Ah Ci clasped his fingers on the armrests of the couch, closed his eyes and opened them wide, his Adam's apple rolling frequently, and his mouth was full of the taste of rust.
"Ye Jian, knock him out."
What if I bite it again and lose too much blood?
"Don't... Your Highness Princess." A Ci's teeth were sore from clenching them.
After he captured Xuan Zhao and entered Xuanwang Palace, he could not get out without his badge.
The blood from the corner of his mouth fell into Xuan Zhaoran's palm. Xuan Zhaoran said impatiently, "Ye Jian, knock him out."
"I asked you to find a smart maid for me, where have you found one?" Madam Quan's voice came from outside the wing room.
Ah Ci's fingers shook slightly and he picked up the bowl of rice on the ground. Before he could make any other move, Ye Jian grabbed his hand.
"I did look for it, but my aunt gave it to the young master."
Madam Quan frowned, "Give it to Ah Ci?"
"Yes, ma'am, why don't you ask the young master to come back?"
"Forget it, just give it to Aci and let Aci stay." The voice outside the door was getting farther and farther away.
A Ci's heart sank, and the next second, he felt a sharp pain in his neck and fell on Xuan Zhaoran's shoulder.
"Princess, Ah Ci doesn't want to offend Xuan Zhao, please don't make things difficult for him."
He is also quite pitiful. He was bullied because he was not in a clear mind before, and then he was injured and almost died. After he finally got better, he was treated like this by Princess 㩙 again.
Xuan Zhaoran was silent, wiping the blood from the corner of Ah Ci's mouth with her sleeve, "If he marries Xuan Zhao, I can ensure that he will have enough food and clothing, why is he unwilling? Am I so unlovable?"
Both the Emperor and the Queen are going to arrange a marriage for her, and the Queen is already selecting a suitable candidate for her.
If she has someone she likes, then the Crown Prince can talk to the Emperor and decide on him, and she won't have to marry anyone else.
She had no reason to refuse, so she could only obey the Emperor and the Queen. She was not the Crown Prince, so she could not be too willful or the Emperor would be annoyed.
If she weren't the Crown Prince, the Emperor wouldn't have treated her and her sister specially.
In the heart of the Emperor, no one is more important than the Crown Prince.
It can be said that the Crown Prince is the Emperor's destiny. From childhood to adulthood, the Crown Prince has been spoiled by the Emperor, who is reluctant to punish him.
What she envied most when she was a child was that the Crown Prince could sit on the Emperor's shoulders and circle around the Imperial Garden, but no one else could do that.
