Xuan Yanyu frowned and glanced in the direction of the drawing board.
The painter's fingertips trembled, and he silently removed the rice paper and replaced it with a new one.
Yan Yuning smiled, and she held Xuan Yanyu's hand that was resting on his leg. The latter said calmly, "Let me go."
"Oh." Yan Yuning let go obediently.
"you……"
Now she listens to him so much, why didn't she answer him obediently when he asked her just now???
When Yan Yuning saw the sulking man out of the corner of her eye, a smile deepened on her face. For more than two hours, Xuan Yanyu didn't say a word to Yan Yuning.
He would just glance at her from time to time, hand her water and fruit, but would never speak to her.
The painter dipped the brush in ink and carefully depicted Yan Yuning's eyebrows and eyes, and then dipped the brush in gold powder to outline Xuan Yanyu's dragon robe. The man in the portrait's gaze fell on the woman with a bright smile.
The painter sighed silently. He tried his best, but could only give the prince a side profile.
His Highness never even looked at him, and kept staring at the Crown Princess, so he simply painted the picture according to His Highness's expression.
By the time the portraits of Prince Xuan and Empress Xuan were finished, it was time for lunch. The portraits needed to be rendered in color, and the headdresses of the Crown Princess and Empress Xuan were also extremely complicated. It would take at least more than a month before the finished products could be seen.
Therefore, Yan Yuning was not in a hurry to urge the angry man. King Xuan asked to hang their portraits in the Prince's Palace.
"Who is the person you like more than me? Is it a man?" Xuan Yanyu couldn't help but ask.
Yan Yuning raised her chin and smiled tenderly, but didn't say a word.
"Didn't you say that I would ask you something in the future?" the man said aggrievedly.
"Your Highness, I don't want to answer you for now. Who told you to say that I can still see? And what else did you say that you are not allowed to tell the truth?" Yan Yuning said with a vengeance.
"That's not what I really mean." Xuan Yanyu blurted out.
Yan Yuning raised her eyebrows, "That's not what I really mean. You know I want it very much, very much, and no one wants it more than you."
The man obviously didn't believe it. "You are just trying to please me."
Yan Yuning spread her hands, "You don't believe it?"
"I will investigate it myself." Xuan Yanyu clenched the dagger.
Yan Yuning caught a glimpse of his movements and took a deep breath. If she really had someone more important than him in her heart, why would he choose someone else???
"It's time for lunch, you two follow me." King Xuan smiled and waved at Yan Yuning, "Ningning, are you hungry?"
"Not bad." Yan Yuning smiled and walked behind Xuan.
Just now Xuan Yanyu handed her some pastries.
"Follow me, why are you still standing there?" King Xuan turned and looked at Xuan Yanyu.
"I'm not hungry, not hungry." The man turned around and strode forward in the opposite direction of Taiyi Palace.
"It's my fault!!" King Xuan's chest heaved with anger.
Yan Yuning touched the tip of her nose, feeling annoyed, and tried to comfort him after a while.
"Your Majesty, Yu'er may be busy with something." Queen Xuan gently stroked King Xuan's back and secretly winked at Yan Yuning.
"Yes, father. Just now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's Consort said that he hasn't finished reading any memorials yet," Yan Yuning explained.
"He? Came back to review the memorials?" The corner of Prince Xuan's mouth twitched, "He was looking for the direction of the imperial prison."
Bashi was imprisoned because she was angry with him. She committed a serious mistake and was put in prison. Looking at Yuer now, she must be shaking again.
Yan Yuning said calmly, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that we should first investigate the prison and then review the memorials."
King Xuan did not expose Yan Yu Ning, and sighed, "Let's go, let's have dinner."
"Okay." Yan Yuning glanced in the direction Xuan Yanyu left, and followed King Xuan and Queen Xuan.
