Lan Shuang didn't know when she fell asleep last night. When she woke up, Ming Wang was gone. The quilt on the couch was half uncovered, and it was so neatly arranged as if it had always been there.
Lan Shuang stretched, got up and wanted to get out of bed, but something fell down on her legs.
"Hmm?" She bent down to pick it up and found it was a snow-white handkerchief. "Where did the handkerchief come from on the bed?"
888: "It was there last night."
"Really? I didn't notice. Is there anything special about it?"
Lan Shuang looked around and there seemed to be nothing special.
888: "Ah, this..."
“Squeak—”
Ming Wang pushed the door open and came in, just in time to exchange a glance with Lan Shuang, who was looking at something with a handkerchief in her hands. Then his gaze moved down to the handkerchief, and his expression suddenly became strange.
"You...let's just leave it as it is. You don't have to do anything."
After saying this, Ming Wang pushed the wheelchair into the house.
Lan Shuang blinked blankly: "I take action? What action should I take?"
888 added in a low voice: "Host, I didn't finish what I said just now. This is actually Yuanpa."
After saying this, his face turned red and he covered his eyes with his hands shyly.
Lan Shuang frowned: "What Yuan...ah!"
She suddenly realized that in ancient times, the handkerchief used to catch a woman's blood on her wedding night was called a Yuanpa. Because nothing happened last night, this thing was white.
No, that’s not the point!
Not only had she been looking at this thing for a long time, but she was also seen by Ming Wang...
No wonder he had that expression just now.
"What a socially fatal moment!" Lan Shuang tightly grasped the handkerchief, wishing she could destroy it immediately.
888: "Host, calm down. Ming Wang just said that you don't need to do anything with this thing. It should still be useful. Let it go for now."
Lan Shuang hummed softly and put the handkerchief on the table.
Prince Ming sat in front of the couch, his eyes solemn. "Today I will be living in the front yard. If you don't like the furnishings here, you can ask the housekeeper to change them. You won't need to enter the palace later. I will go to express my gratitude. You can get to know the people in the mansion."
"Okay, no problem."
Lan Shuang sat down at the table and asked, "Can someone come in and change the water now?"
The Ming King nodded and said, "As you please."
After saying that, he didn't leave and just sat there. Lan Shuang looked at him puzzledly.
Before she could ask, someone suddenly knocked on the door: "This servant pays respects to the prince and princess. This servant is here to collect the Yuan handkerchief."
Lan Shuang suddenly realized that the show had started early in the morning, so she had to cooperate with him and pretend to be at odds with him.
The emperor can't stand seeing Prince Ming do well. If I fall in love with Prince Ming, won't I become a thorn in his eyes?
She cleared her throat and said loudly: "Come in——"
As she finished speaking, a maid in dark brown palace dress walked in, bowed to her and Ming Wang, and her eyes fell on the bed. She was slightly stunned when she didn't see what she wanted.
Lan Shuang picked up the Yuanpa: "Here it is."
The nanny was surprised, "How can I trouble the princess..."
"It's unused anyway, so it's very clean. Take it."
"……yes."
When the nanny reached out to take it, her eyes were complicated and she could hardly hide her sympathy.
Tsk tsk tsk, they didn’t do anything on their wedding night. If this gets out, won’t it become a laughing stock in Kyoto?
Ming Wang has such a cruel heart!
How could such a beautiful lady like a flower hold herself back?
She sighed silently, looked at Lan Shuang with pity, put the handkerchief into the wooden box, closed the lid, and looked at Ming Wang who was sitting silently in front of the couch, looking at his icy face.
Alas, we are all poor people. How are we going to live in the future?
She bowed to the King Ming and said, "I'll take my leave."
Ming Wang didn't even raise his eyelids, "Yeah."
The nanny hurriedly fled from the bedroom, met Yu Xiao and Bi Qing, and left in a hurry without saying anything.
Bi Qing frowned in confusion: "Are you in a hurry?
Yu Xiao glanced at her without saying anything. He knocked on the door and entered after getting permission. He didn't dare to look around and walked to the side of Prince Ming: "Your Highness, it's time to change clothes."
"Well, let's go."
Prince Ming was sitting in a wheelchair. Yu Xiao pushed him out. When they passed by Lan Shuang, Lan Shuang waved at them and said, "Goodbye."
Yu Xiaomei's heart skipped a beat. This princess is really... lively.
After Biqing and the others had left, they came in with a tray, replaced the pot of tea for Lan Shuang, and put a few plates of snacks on it. Lan Shuang was finally able to drink some water.
Later, breakfast was delivered from the kitchen. After Lan Shuang washed, changed her clothes, ate and drank her fill, she began to wait quietly.
Within half an hour, Lan Shuang saw from afar a man in a willow-green gown walking slowly towards her, followed by a group of people at a distance.
Bi Qing was surprised: "Why is there a stranger in the backyard?"
Lan Shuang was calmer than her. She squinted her eyes and said, "He should be the steward of the palace."
"Ah? So young?"
Bi Qing turned around in disbelief and looked at the person who was getting closer and closer. "And he looks too... too delicate?"
She didn't know many words to praise people. She only knew that "delicate" was used to praise someone's good looks, so she used it that way.
But in Lan Shuang's eyes, the person in front of her could more accurately be described as having a feminine appearance.
Handsome and a little feminine.
It would also be possible to change clothes and dress up as a woman.
Unlike Mingwang, although Mingwang is also very handsome, his facial features are deep and three-dimensional, with hard lines, which makes him look oppressive at first glance.
This guy looks smiling and has no temper, but Lan Shuang has a feeling that he is also a tough guy.
"Your subordinate Yu Heng greets the Princess."
"Yu Heng?" Lan Shuang raised an eyebrow. "What is your relationship with Yu Xiao, who is beside the prince?"
