Chapter 78 How could a person make such a big mistake?
The two of them entered the private room.
Li Runrun also stood up with weak legs and went to help Ye Qiaoqiao.
Just as he helped Ye Qiaoqiao up, she saw Gu Yuanqing's back and knelt down again in a cowardly manner.
"Qiaoqiao, are you okay? Don't be afraid, His Royal Highness, he, he shouldn't kill anyone. At least, he won't kill us..."
“Haha, yes, yes, yes, yes?”
Ye Qiaoqiao's legs simply wouldn't obey her commands. She wanted to cry but couldn't. "Ruanruan, I underestimated you. You actually recognized Her Highness, Madam."
Li Runrun was also in tears. What was the difference between escaping from the wolf's den and entering the tiger's den?
She didn't know she would meet him here, and she bumped into him.
She bumped into him once, and Ye Qiaoqiao bumped into him once.
If I had known earlier, I would have walked faster and not fixed my hair, maybe I wouldn't have bumped into him.
What luck this is.
Li Runrun felt that she must not have checked the almanac before going out today. Maybe today was not a good day for everything.
The charcoal brazier in the private room was burning, it was very warm, and there was also a faint fragrance of some unknown kind, but it was very light and pleasant.
The secret guard was standing behind the prince, holding a sword and standing solemnly.
Li Runrun had a feeling that if she said something wrong and displeased the prince, her head would fall off on the spot.
This is no joke.
Li Runrun looked around and found that the prince was not here, and there were only two small teacups on the tea table, which meant that there was no third person.
There are only the Crown Prince and Master Gu.
The prince is not here, and Li Runrun doesn't feel safe at all.
Gu Yuanqing chuckled. He sat at the prince's end, took his own teacup, and placed two new ones opposite him.
He seemed so easy to talk to, and motioned to Li Ruanruan and Ye Qiaoqiao: "Sit down."
Ye Qiaoqiao didn't know what to do at all and held Li Ruanruan's hand tightly.
Li Runrun took a deep breath and sat down opposite the prince and Gu Yuanqing with caution.
Li Runrun glanced at the sword in the hands of the secret guard behind the prince.
The secret guard also lowered his eyes and glanced at Li Runrun.
Li Runrun's hands were shaking, and she always felt that he was going to chop her in the next second.
I lowered my head and didn't dare to look around.
Ye Qiaoqiao was completely frozen.
I really don't know why they were invited in to have tea with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Are they worthy of each other?
Gu Yuanqing poured tea for both of them and then said, "This is the best Junshan Yinzhen tea. Try it and see if it tastes good."
Li Runrun and Ye Qiaoqiao picked up the small teacup together, lowered their heads and took a sip.
Gu Yuanqing looked at their identical movements and tried to hold back his laughter.
After being glared at by the prince, he held back and coughed twice.
Gu Yuanqing asked, "Is it delicious?"
Li Ruanruan really didn't taste anything, but it was more flavorful than the prince's tea. The prince's tea was too light.
So he nodded: "It tastes good."
In fact, she still felt that the coarse tea that Lida bought for a few copper coins was very strong and delicious.
Ye Qiaoqiao also nodded: "Good tea."
Gu Yuanqing said, "Let's pack some to drink later."
Ye Qiaoqiao's face turned red uncontrollably.
The prince glanced at the Su embroidery shop below before saying, "Are you two running the Su embroidery shop?"
Li Ruanruan was startled, but then thought that it was impossible to hide any news from the Crown Prince, so she nodded and said, "It's the Second Miss's Su embroidery. I just assisted her."
Ye Qiaoqiao's face turned even redder and she lowered her head: "Yeah."
Gu Yuanqing said, "The handkerchief in the prince's hand last time had two different colors on both sides. Was it embroidered by you?"
He asked while looking at Li Ruanruan, and Li Ruanruan nodded: "Yes."
"It's a pity that I lost it. The prince was very angry. Oh, yes, you two saw my embarrassment that day. It was my fault for not being polite."
"No, I didn't see it."
Ye Qiaoqiao also hurriedly said: "I didn't see it."
Gu Yuanqing was still very good at chatting, and he said with rhythm: "I see that your shop has not yet stocked this style of embroidery."
"No, it's not easy to embroider. The embroiderers haven't learned it yet. They will learn it in due time."
Li Ruanruan lowered her head and answered.
The prince picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip. He put the teacup down and tapped his fingers lightly: "Didn't you embroider another handkerchief for the prince? I'm afraid he's not easy to appease either."
Li Runrun thought that the prince was worthy of being close to the Crown Prince, and he still understood.
So he turned sideways and accidentally dropped the banknote when he took out his handkerchief.
Li Runrun hurriedly bent down to pick it up, but saw the secret guard's sword suddenly unsheathed.
Li Runrun was so frightened that she dared not move, fearing that the secret guards would think she was an assassin and would chop her to death.
It was still the prince who reprimanded: "Stop making a fuss and step aside."
The secret guard bowed his head respectfully and said, "Yes."
The prince bent down and picked up the stack of banknotes that floated to his feet, and Li Runrun was too late to stop him.
The prince took the banknote in his hand, opened it, and glanced at it casually.
Gu Yuanqing also came over and took a look, his eyebrows raised.
No wonder His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to take a look at this small shop, it really makes money.
Ye Qiaoqiao was so scared that she grabbed Li Ruanruan's hand under the table and squeezed it hard. She was already sweating coldly.
Stop pinching her. Li Runrun is also panicking. She is really unlucky today. Really.
She almost stopped breathing just now. How could someone make such a mistake?
