Chapter 113 You are really spoiled. Whose secret guard is like you?
Xiao Jiwu found the young man's appearance amusing. He couldn't help but reach out and pinch Yun Qingshi's cheek, saying with emotion: "You really are spoiled. Which secret guard is like you?"
Yun Qingshi didn't seem anxious at all when he heard this. He yawned slowly before replying lazily, "Look at what your Highness said. It sounds like some secret guard would go to bed with his master like this."
Xiao Jiwu: ...
Xiao Jiwu fell silent for a moment.
This is way too blunt...
But it is indeed true.
Xiao Jiwu felt a little helpless, but he didn't mean to blame the boy.
Besides, what the boy said was right.
Thinking of this, Prince Xiao curled his lips, bent down and kissed the boy's eyebrows, and then let Yun Qingshi lean casually on his shoulder.
Apparently, he had convinced himself.
As for Yun Qingshi, after not hearing Xiao Jiwu speak for a long time, he couldn't help but open one eye and glance at Prince Xiao with some confusion.
Then he was caught off guard and met Xiao Jiwu's gaze that was staring at him.
Yun Qingshi: ...
Yun Qingshi felt a little embarrassed at being caught, so he quickly closed his eyes and continued to sleep carefreely...
It was unknown how much time had passed before the carriage started moving again.
Yun Qingshi was also successfully shaken awake.
But after catching up on some sleep for so long, he finally wasn't that sleepy anymore.
Yun Qingshi immediately left Prince Xiao's shoulder, slowly sat up straight, stretched, and rubbed his stiff neck to calm himself down.
Seeing this, Xiao Jiwu took the teapot on the small table and poured a cup of tea for Yun Qingshi: "Have a cup of tea to moisten your throat."
Yun Qingshi had just woken up and was still a little dazed, so he obediently took the teacup and drank it upon hearing this.
The water in the teapot should have just been replaced, and the temperature is just right, warm, neither cold nor hot.
There were still a few plates of snacks on the table, which were clearly not there before he narrowed his eyes. Yun Qingshi guessed that they must have been brought over by Zhao Mingde.
After drinking the tea, he became a little more sober.
After calming himself down, Yun Qingshi carefully lifted the car curtain and looked outside, only to find that it was finally completely bright.
It looks like it's almost noon.
In fact, the main reason is that I wasted too much time in the palace.
There were guards accompanying the carriage on both sides, but Yun Qingshi could not see them in the front and back.
Fearing that they might be seen by someone with ulterior motives, he did not dare to look at them any longer and quickly lowered the curtain again.
After another moment, Yun Qingshi loosened the wrist guard on his arm and took out the contraband he had brought from his sleeve.
A storybook.
He didn't bring anything else with him this time, but he couldn't leave the story behind.
Otherwise, how would he survive this journey? Without a mobile phone, storybooks were his only spiritual food.
However, he had already read most of the previous twenty or so books. When he returned from Qiu Lie, he would have to ask Zhao Mingde to buy some more for him, otherwise he would not be able to continue, Yun Qingshi thought.
Xiao Jiwu: ...
When Xiao Jiwu saw this, a rare look of shock flashed across his eyes.
How come he didn’t know that Ying Shiyi had secretly stuffed the storybook into his sleeve?
I didn't want to get up in the morning, and had to have someone help me get dressed. I didn't forget to bring my notebook...
————
Afterwards, the two of them had some snacks for breakfast.
Then in the following time, Yun Qingshi read almost all the storybooks along the way.
Xiao Jiwu was also reading a book, but it was not a storybook. Yun Qingshi took a quick glance at it and found that it was a military book.
The entire team kept on moving and did not stop until almost noon.
It looks like it's time to have lunch.
Yun Qingshi once again got off the carriage first and stood still, standing straight, helping Xiao Jiwu get off the carriage.
Only after Xiao Jiwu got off the carriage did Yun Qingshi find the opportunity to look at the building in front of him. Looking at the words on the plaque, he realized that this was a temporary palace.
The temporary palace is the emperor's temporary residence, and princes and royal family can go there for lunch.
However, the accompanying guards did not receive such treatment.
Most of the guards stayed outside, only the emperor's personal eunuchs and the princes' personal guards were to follow in.
Yun Qingshi naturally thought that he had to follow, so he prepared to follow Xiao Jiwu's footsteps. However, he had only taken one step when Prince Xiao signaled him not to follow.
Xiao Jiwu: "Just stay in the carriage. You don't have to follow me, and don't wander around."
Although Yun Qingshi was puzzled when he heard this, he quickly and obediently agreed: "Yes."
It's not like he hadn't attended palace banquets with Xiao Jiwu before, but because of his status, he could only stand outside as punishment every time, which was so frustrating.
Yun Qingshi was even happy that he didn't have to go with them this time.
However, Xiao Jiwu was not the only one who went in. Yun Qingshi soon saw the servant Changshun following Xiao Jiwu into the palace.
As for Yun Qingshi, he walked around the carriage twice and then got back in.
The accompanying guards had already started to rest and eat. They ate the simple dry food they brought with them, drinking it with water.
It is called dry food, but in fact it is just a dry cake, and it doesn’t look tasty at all.
Seeing this, Yun Qingshi decided to skip a meal and eat something else when he arrived at the enclosure in the afternoon.
He really didn't want to eat that cake.
Thinking of this, Yun Qingshi took another piece of dessert from the plate on the table and ate it, which was better than nothing.
After finishing one piece of dessert, Yun Qingshi was about to grab the second piece, but at this moment, the curtain of the carriage was suddenly lifted from the outside, revealing Zhao Mingde's face.
Seeing the carriage curtain suddenly opened, Yun Qingshi was actually a little nervous. When he saw that it was Zhao Mingde, he couldn't help but lower his voice and asked, "Eunuch Zhao, what's wrong?"
Zhao Mingde also replied in a low voice: "I am here to bring you food."
As he spoke, Zhao Mingde handed a food box to Yun Qingshi.
Yun Qingshi was stunned for a moment before taking the food box. He wanted to ask something, but before he could open his mouth, Zhao Mingde quickly lowered the curtain again.
Yun Qingshi had no choice but to keep quiet, then put the food box on the ground and opened it.
Because the table in the carriage was not big, if the food box was placed on the table, there would be no room for the things inside.
As the lid of the food box was opened, the food inside was revealed.
The first layer contained a fragrant roast chicken and a plate of beef, the second layer contained a plate of vegetarian dishes and a small bowl of pork rib soup, as well as two beautiful and delicate longevity peach-shaped steamed buns.
After seeing what was in the food box, Yun Qingshi's eyes couldn't help but widen a little.
Wow, so many delicious foods, how did Zhao Mingde get them?
