Chapter 57 Kneeling Down to Give Thanks
Ye Yunchu smiled faintly: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is well-informed."
"Cheng Yingjun just came back to report that you used my people and you still want to hide it from me?"
"without."
Ye Yunchu stood in front of the table. He went to see the pot of gorgeous green peony on the prince's table. The flowers were blooming in winter, and it was worthy of being an ornamental variety cultivated in the warm room.
He reached out and fiddled with the green bud.
The prince raised his chin and gestured, "I like it. Take it back."
Ye Yunchu seemed to have thought of something, and the smile on his lips deepened: "I can't take care of it anymore."
"Oh? What rare thing did you get that you need to take care of yourself?"
Ye Yunchu continued to laugh for a long time before he said, "Why wouldn't I report it? I almost got hurt while trying to intimidate the rioters outside the city. I was just returning from a military operation and went to a pawnshop to rescue two people. I have to tell Your Highness everything in detail."
The prince only said, "This is interesting by the way."
Just then, the eunuch in charge came in and said something in the prince's ear.
The prince looked at Ye Yunchu with a different look in his eyes, a bit surprised: "I didn't know you brought people with you."
Then the prince scolded the eunuch in charge: "You are getting worse and worse. How can you ignore her? Why don't you bring her here for me to see what a beauty she is? She is so charming that she even brought me here."
The eunuch in charge knelt down and slapped himself in the face: "Your Highness, it was the Crown Prince who told me not to bring this servant here."
"Why?"
Facing the Crown Prince's question, Ye Yunchu said, "She is timid. Your Highness, please don't scare her."
"What are you talking about? Am I some evil person? Bring him up quickly."
The eunuch in charge looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, then at the Young Master, deliberately looking to be in a dilemma.
The prince hit him hard on the head with a memorial: "Have you forgotten who you belong to, you old rascal?"
"Oh, this old slave deserves death, this old slave deserves death, this old slave will go and ask for it right away."
Ye Yunchu blocked the eunuch's way, and the eunuchs in charge were stopped on both sides and hurriedly turned back to look at the prince.
The prince slapped the memorial and said, "I must see you."
Ye Yunchu knelt down and saluted the Crown Prince: "Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince insists on seeing you, I must prepare a meeting gift."
The prince laughed angrily: "Xiuzhu is waiting for me here, what do you want?"
"Just a few bottles of useful wound medicine."
.......
Li Runrun was feeling very uncomfortable from the beginning, but no one came to disturb her later, and there was no one in the garden in front of her.
Although I don’t dare to relax completely, I dare to change my sitting position when I feel numb.
Just as Li was moving her legs which were tense and numb due to nervousness, the numbness and soreness made her expression change slightly.
Then she saw a eunuch coming over with a whisk, and she was so scared that she sat up straight.
The eunuch in charge looked at her kindly and said, "Sir, the Crown Prince wants to see you. Please come with us."
It was the first time for Li Runrun to hear a eunuch speak. His voice was indeed rather feminine and his face was also very pale, which matched her first impression of eunuchs.
When she heard that the prince wanted to see her, Li Runrun was so scared that her face turned pale.
I sat in the chair for a while and didn't dare to move.
The eunuch in charge was a careful person. He saw her fear and lowered his voice and said, "The prince is over there too."
Li Runrun felt a little relieved, but her heart was still beating fast.
She hurriedly stood up, lowered her head, and followed the eunuch in charge.
Just walk with your head down and don't look around.
Afraid of making mistakes.
This is the Eastern Palace, a place where the lives of slaves are not taken seriously. You may be executed just for breaking a teacup or knocking something over.
In order to demonstrate the royal majesty, the royal family has strict rules.
How could Li Runrun not be afraid? She was already walking on thin ice in the Marquis' Mansion, let alone here.
I don’t know how long I walked, but just when Li Runrun felt like her heart was being roasted on fire with every step she took, we finally arrived.
The eunuch in charge stopped and Li Runrun knelt down and bowed deeply without even daring to look at her.
"Hey, young master, hurry up and get up. His Highness is inside. Wait here while I go and pass the message."
The eunuch in charge helped up Li Ruanruan, who was trembling slightly with nervousness, and thought to himself, this person is really timid but also interesting.
I don’t know where the prince got this little thing. No wonder it’s so rare and so popular.
Li Runrun's face turned red, but she couldn't say anything.
The eunuch in charge had already gone in to pass the message, and came over a moment later: "Come in with us."
Li Runrun was now more careful with every step she took, and she kowtowed very hard when performing greetings, fearing that she was not sincere enough.
When the prince heard the loud noise, he first glanced at Ye Yunchu and saw that his face had turned black.
He suppressed a smile, cleared his throat, and then said, "Get up. Since you are Xiuyun's friend, there is no need to be restrained."
Li Runrun didn't know what to do with her hands and feet. If the prince found out that she was dressed as a man, would she be guilty of deceiving the emperor?
She didn't feel any pain on her forehead, even though it was already red, swollen and purple where she had hit the head. Her fair skin made it even more obvious.
Li Ruanruan climbed up clumsily, not daring to look around. From her meager memory of ancient etiquette and rules, it seemed that she could not look directly into the emperor's face.
Although the prince is not the emperor yet, he should not be allowed to watch it, so it is best not to watch it.
Li Ruanruan leaned her head against the wall. Seeing that no one spoke, she hesitated and felt that she was in the way. Maybe she should move aside and wait?
Just when Li Ruanruan was about to take a step.
Then he heard the prince's gentle and pleasant voice: "Lift your head and let me see."
Li Runrun's face flushed red, and she raised her head slightly, but she didn't dare to look up.
"How can you be so brave as a woman? Aren't you curious about what I look like? Do I have a green face and fangs?"
Li Runrun was so nervous that she didn't look at the prince. Instead, she immediately looked at the young master beside her for help.
Ye Yunchu said: "She is timid, Your Highness, why bother to scare her."
Then Ye Yunchu raised his hand: "Come here."
Li Runrun felt as if she had been pardoned, her back soaked with cold sweat, and she stood beside Ye Yunchu in panic.
Smelling the faint sandalwood scent on him, I suddenly felt like I had taken a tranquilizer, and slowly I stopped trembling.
Otherwise I can't even speak.
The prince waved and said, "Since this is our first meeting, I will give you a gift."
The eunuch in charge hurried over with a tray filled with bottles of medicine for wounds.
The prince said in a voice tinged with laughter: "All the wound medicines from the Eastern Palace are here. Take them. Take as much as you can with your two hands."
Li Runrun looked at Ye Yunchu for help.
This is a golden medicine that can save my father and brother's lives.
But if she really grabbed a handful, would it embarrass him?
Ye Yunchu glanced at Li Ruanruan, then he put his arms around her, grabbed her hands, and took the entire tray from the eunuch in charge: "Kneel down and thank you quickly, I'll serve it to you."
