Chapter 116 Coax Him
Gu Yuanqing: “…”
Then he sighed and said, "You're so worried about your little concubine that you even sent someone to follow her."
Ye Yunchu seemed to have run out of patience and reached out to grab Gu Yuanqing's neck.
Gu Yuanqing was almost strangled to death by him, and hurriedly said: "Since you sent someone to follow, you should know that it is just to drink tea and be polite. Also, your second young lady, the maids and servants are all here."
Ye Yunchu tightened his grip again.
Gu Yuanqing said hurriedly, "Well, nothing much. We just talked about Suzhou embroidery and storybooks. Miss Ye Er asked me to help her draw a birthday picture on the screen. That's all."
Gu Yuanqing felt like he was being pinched and rolled his eyes.
Ye Yunchu withdrew his hand, not knowing if it was his illusion, but he felt that the prince's face had become even darker.
It was frighteningly cold inside the carriage, and Gu Yuanqing felt as if his hands and feet were cold.
He covered his neck and only dared to cough twice softly, then moved gently and with small movements towards the car curtain.
Just took a step forward and was about to run away.
Ye Yunchu's sharp gaze swept over him: "You agreed?"
"ah?"
Gu Yuanqing took a step forward, but it was neither a way to run nor a way to pull it back.
His mind was brightening with inspiration like never before: "How could I possibly agree to that? I tried to persuade your little concubine at the time. I said, 'You little concubine, why are you choosing something far away? When it comes to birthday paintings, the Crown Prince is undoubtedly the master painter. I'm the toad, and the Crown Prince is the white swan. How can I compare?"
Gu Yuanqing even imitated the way he waved his hands in operas: "No, no, you can go and ask your master yourself. I will never agree to your request."
Ye Yunchu's complexion seemed to have improved a little, and then he raised his foot and kicked Gu Yuanqing down.
The prince's carriage drove away slowly.
The servant hurried over to help Gu Yuanqing up: "Sir, are you hurt?"
Gu Yuanqing waved his hand: "It's okay, I just didn't see the road clearly and fell down."
Servant: “........”
He didn't dare to say that he saw his son rolling out of the prince's carriage, as if he was kicked out.
He hurriedly said, "Sir, why didn't you look carefully at the road? Fortunately, nothing happened."
"Well, let's go back."
Gu Yuanqing got on the carriage and opened the curtain again: "By the way, send me back later and send someone to the Marquis' Mansion to pass on a message."
Li Runrun finished her meal. It was already dark, but the prince had not returned yet. She thought he would stay out tonight and not come back, which was a common occurrence.
Ye Qiaoqiao came looking for him anxiously.
Li Runrun had taken off her coat and was about to go to sleep, but when she heard she was coming, she thought it was something urgent.
Let Li Bai bring the clothes over, put them on, then stand up and open the door.
He welcomed Ye Qiaoqiao in and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you here so late? Did something happen?"
"Oh no, Ruanruan, Master Gu sent someone to tell me that the Crown Prince is angry because of the birthday painting."
Ye Qiaoqiao asked anxiously again: "What does this mean? Big brother is angry, what does it mean?"
She was really confused and didn't know what Mr. Gu meant by suddenly saying this. She had no idea whether it was what she guessed.
After sending someone to find out that the prince had not returned, he dared to come and discuss with Li Runrun.
"Nothing else to say?"
Ye Qiaoqiao nodded. "Just this one sentence. I came here to pass on a message. I think Master Gu meant that Big Brother is angry and he doesn't dare to paint this picture anymore."
Li Ruanruan nodded: "That should be what you mean, otherwise they wouldn't have sent a special message. It's so late and you still need someone to pass on the message. I'm afraid it will delay our business."
Ye Qiaoqiao was anxious: "What should I do? I said I would send the screen over tomorrow morning and asked Master Gu to paint it, but now it's not being painted. We're pressed for time. We were supposed to have it resolved perfectly, but now this is troublesome again. Another day has been wasted."
After a pause, Ye Qiaoqiao continued, "What does it mean that Big Brother is angry? Doesn't Big Brother agree with us making such a birthday gift? I think Big Brother is very knowledgeable, is there anything taboo? Ruanruan, you are angry with Big Brother again at this critical moment, otherwise you can ask."
Ye Qiaoqiao looked very anxious. She had paid a lot for this birthday party, so she was worried.
Li Ruanruan comforted Ye Qiaoqiao: "Don't worry for now. I think what Master Gu wants to tell us is that the prince is angry because he found out that we went to Master Gu to paint instead of him, not because the birthday painting is inappropriate."
Ye Qiaoqiao swallowed her saliva after hearing this: "No way, big brother wouldn't be so stingy."
Li Runrun was helpless and thought to herself, he is just so petty.
Otherwise, Gu Yuanqing would not have sent a message so late at night. I guess the prince must be very angry.
"How about a simpler birthday gift? Big brother is so scary when he's angry, and I don't want to embarrass you."
Ye Qiaoqiao said tentatively.
As they were talking, they heard a noise outside.
Ye Qiaoqiao's whole body froze. "It's over. Big brother is back. Ruanruan, I remembered my mother calling me. I'll go back first."
