Chapter 111 I can’t help wanting to get closer, wanting to get close
Ying Yi temporarily took over Ying San's position and guarded the Yian Hall. Ying San also quickly received the order and appeared in the study of the palace.
"Your Majesty."
Hearing this, Xiao Jiwu put down the book in his hand and said calmly, "Chu Zhiyu fell into the water. What exactly happened? Explain the whole story clearly."
"Yes," Ying San quickly agreed, then respectfully knelt on one knee and began to report: "Master, less than two quarters before the hour of Si, Ying Shiyi finished feeding Bai Ze and went to see his horse. On his way back to Yi'an Palace, he passed by the front courtyard pond and stopped to ask Eunuch Zhao for fish food to feed the fish."
"During this time, Chu Zhiyu and her maid also arrived at the front yard. After they discovered Ying Shiyi on the bridge, they hid behind a tree. Eunuch Zhao probably didn't notice them."
"Later, there was a problem with the palace's storeroom, and Eunuch Zhao went to deal with it. When only Eleven was left on the bridge, Chu Zhiyu also went up the bridge. Chu Zhiyu sent the maid to guard the palace gate, probably to check on the master's whereabouts and wait for an opportunity to warn him."
"Then, Chu Zhiyu asked Eleven for some intriguing reason if he was feeding the fish. Eleven didn't want to pay attention and wanted to leave, but Chu Zhiyu blocked his way and wouldn't let him go. Eleven then asked him what he wanted to do, but Chu Zhiyu still didn't give way or answer, simply saying he wasn't doing anything."
Hearing this, Prince Xiao could no longer hide the disgust in his eyes: "Go on."
Ying San then continued to report: "Until he saw the maid waving at the palace gate, Chu Zhiyu suddenly pretended to be pushed and leaned heavily against the stone railing, asking why Eleven pushed him. He must have intended to frame Eleven and make the master think that Eleven—"
Ying San continued to describe the scene at that time, but was interrupted by Prince Xiao before he could finish his words.
Xiao Jiwu: "Repeat what he said specifically."
Ying San had to think for a moment before he began to repeat Chu Zhiyu's words: "He said, Lord Eleven, why did you push me? I really didn't want to compete for the prince's favor."
Prince Xiao frowned as he listened, and asked, "What did Ying Shiyi do after hearing this? What was his reaction?"
Shadow Three:......
This is a bit hard to answer...
Ying San hesitated for a moment before answering, "Ying Shiyi laughed after hearing what Chu Zhiyu said."
Xiao Jiwu:???
Upon hearing this, Prince Xiao suddenly fell silent.
The sudden silence made Ying San feel a little uneasy. After a pause, he spoke again: "Then, Ying Shiyi took action, which was considered to be helping Master Chu."
Xiao Jiwu: ...
Why didn't he realize before that each of his secret guards was more interesting than the other?
Ying Sanze continued, "Your Highness knows everything that happened later. I have finished reporting."
After hearing this, Xiao Jiwu nodded slightly and signaled Ying San to retreat.
He had already made up his mind, and the next moment, Xiao Jiwu said to the outside of the door, "Zhao Mingde."
Zhao Mingde had not been by his own prince's side for some time. Most of the time, he followed Ying Shiyi. This time, he came to the study because of his own prince's signal.
After seeing Ying San being summoned again, Zhao Mingde already had some guesses in his mind.
Hearing the voice, Zhao Mingde quickly entered the study: "Prince."
Xiao Jiwu tapped the tabletop with his fingertips and ordered expressionlessly, "Send someone to buy a courtyard as soon as possible. An ordinary one will do."
Zhao Mingde nodded after hearing this and asked tentatively, "What does Your Majesty mean?"
Xiao Jiwu also quickly gave an answer: "The palace can no longer keep him, but his mother did save my life. If you arrange a place for him to live and give him some money, I will have nothing to do with him anymore."
Zhao Mingde nodded repeatedly after hearing this: "Your Highness, this arrangement is very good. This person's motives are not pure, and his mind is too active."
What he expected turned out to be correct.
Xiao Jiwu then instructed: "It must be completed after the autumn hunt. Now let's go and arrange the matters for tomorrow's autumn hunt. Go down."
"Yes." Zhao Mingde quickly agreed.
————
Everything had been arranged, and Xiao Jiwu then returned to Yian Hall.
Yun Qingshi was still lying on the couch reading a storybook, looking relaxed and contented, with his legs crossed and his toes swaying from side to side, looking very comfortable.
This was the scene Xiao Jiwu saw when he returned to his bedroom.
But the boy obviously didn't do anything, but inexplicably, he couldn't help but want to get closer and get close to her.
In the end, Xiao Jiwu finally followed his heart and went to Yun Qingshi again, looking at the young man silently.
Yun Qingshi: ...
Yun Qingshi felt a little helpless.
In fact, he heard the sound the moment Xiao Jiwu came back, but he was too lazy to speak.
It was only when Xiao Jiwu was standing in front of him, staring at him intently, that he was forced to sit up with his arms propped up and speak: "...The prince is back?"
"I'm back." Prince Xiao replied.
After saying that, he immediately lifted the boy's chin and placed a light kiss on Yun Qingshi's lips, leaving immediately.
Noticing this, Yun Qingshi was surprised and looked up at Xiao Jiwu in confusion.
It’s not that I’m surprised why Xiao Jiwu suddenly kissed him, but it’s mainly because Prince Xiao is rarely so... so reserved. He actually kissed for only one second and then withdrew. It’s really rare.
Under Yun Qingshi's puzzled gaze, Prince Xiao sat down next to Yun Qingshi.
The couch was originally not small, but there was a table in the middle of the couch, dividing the couch into two halves. Then two people sat in one half of the space, which was obviously very crowded, and the two people were almost tightly pressed together.
Yun Qingshi:???
What is this operation?
I don’t mind being crowded.
Yun Qingshi felt a little helpless and immediately wanted to urge Xiao Jiwu to stand up.
But before he could open his mouth, Prince Xiao suddenly picked him up and placed him on his knees.
Yun Qingshi: ...
Yun Qingshi was still holding a half-read notebook in his hand.
Xiao Jiwu just looked at the young man in his arms quietly. After a moment, he gently stroked the top of the young man's head before speaking softly again: "Just look at yours."
Yun Qingshi: Then he has to be able to watch it...
After a while, Yun Qingshi really looked in again. When he saw the critical situation, he frowned.
Xiao Jiwu obviously also noticed this. Seeing this, he couldn't help but look at the storybook in Yun Qingshi's hand curiously, and soon found out that the protagonist in the storybook had been kidnapped and it was a critical moment.
Prince Xiao soon found it boring. What a crappy storybook, it was nowhere as interesting as his Shadow Eleven.
Thinking of this, Xiao Jiwu picked a grape from the plate and fed it to Yun Qingshi's mouth: "Open your mouth."
Or perhaps he himself did not realize that he was trying to attract Yun Qingshi's attention.
