Han Ting raised his eyes and glanced at Yu Nian quietly, not wanting to argue with her.
Fortunately, the little female didn’t know he was an orc...tsk.
"Your Highness, are you ready? The Imperial Master has been waiting for half an hour."
Han Chen's voice sounded from the door.
Only then did Yu Nian hurriedly begin to wash and change clothes.
She looked at her pajamas, which were covered in cat hair, and fell into deep thought.
How to deal with criminal evidence?
Han Chen's urging voice sounded again from outside the door. Yu Nian could only crumple the quilt into a ball, hoping that the housework robot would not find out.
"Your Highness, did you hear any noise last night?" Han Chen followed behind Yu Nian, and the two walked one after the other in the exquisitely carved corridor.
"No." Yu Nian slept early and soundly last night. She lifted her skirt and trotted forward.
"Your Highness, there is no need to be so anxious. The Imperial Master has been waiting for an hour. He will not have any complaints to Your Highness if you wait a little longer." Han Chen spoke when he heard her breathing getting heavier.
The man's slender legs were wrapped in a tight-fitting guard uniform. The smooth lines made his legs look long and strong. His footsteps landed on the smooth marble floor, and his black heels made a crisp sound when they collided with the ground.
Yu Nian silently compared her short legs with Han Chen's legs that were almost as long as her waist, and gradually slowed down her pace.
It was already past nine o'clock when the Imperial Master saw her.
The man stood up and turned his head slightly to look at Yu Nian.
"Your Highness is here."
Yu Nian nodded and said, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, Imperial Master."
"It is my duty to wait for Your Highness." Bai Yuheng smiled faintly and bowed. "Since Your Highness is here, I will check the results of your practice yesterday."
Yu Nian's expression froze. As soon as she finished her class yesterday, she had completely forgotten about dancing. "This... The Imperial Master has a bandage over his eyes, so he can't even see the results of my practice."
Yu Nian breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Bai Yuheng nod slightly.
"Your Highness is very considerate. Although I am wearing brocade, I can still see. Your Highness, don't worry."
The man had a faint smile on his handsome face. Although his words were gentle, Yu Nian felt deeply that a gentle knife could be fatal.
She racked her brains to recall the dance she had learned yesterday morning and tried her best to reproduce it. Although her arms were still not level and her legs could not be straightened, she finally managed to dance most of the way, stumbling along.
After the lecture, Yu Nian, like a motivated but mediocre student, asked anxiously, "What does the Imperial Master think?"
There was a hint of certainty on Bai Yuheng's face, and even his smile became more friendly.
"Your Highness is making rapid progress."
Yu Nian was surprised and modest: "No way, I'm not good at dancing at all."
The man shook his head repeatedly. "Your Highness dances very well. Although I have only taught one student, I can tell from the wind created by your sleeves and the staggered steps you took just now."
"real?"
Yu Nian expressed her doubts. After all, she had been uncoordinated since she was a child, and she didn't dare to dream of dancing.
Bai Yuheng nodded, and the smile on his face became more genuine.
He originally thought that His Majesty's task of teaching His Highness to dance was to make things difficult for him.
But I didn't expect that His Highness would be willing to learn.
As long as the learning attitude is correct, Bai Yuheng believes that hard work can make up for lack of talent. If the student is not taught well, it is the teacher's fault. Moreover, he had no hope for Yu Nian to begin with, and now seeing that she is willing to learn, even though she has no talent in this area, he is very relieved.
As long as Your Highness maintains this attitude of studying and making progress, there will be no problems during the sacrifices and prayers.
With the encouragement of a good teacher, Yu Nianlian became more eager to study.
Until there was a knock on the door.
"Your Highness, lunch is ready."
Bai Yuheng paused while holding Yu Nian's arm, and whispered, "Your Highness has been studying for a long time today. Let's stop here for today."
The man slowly lowered her hand and asked, "Your Highness, are you feeling tired today?"
Yu Nian remembered the effect of the tonic pill from yesterday and nodded vigorously: "Master, are you going to give me another pill?"
Bai Yuheng smiled and shook his head: "All medicines are toxic. Your Highness has adapted quite a bit today and should not need to take any more."
Yu Nian felt a little disappointed, but didn't say anything else. Before sending the Imperial Master away, her eyes fell on his body, which was wrapped in three layers of clothes, and she asked in confusion, "Is Imperial Master feeling cold?"
She had wanted to ask this as early as when she met Bai Yuheng today, but she always felt that he was a little too concerned. After all, the original book had already said that Bai Yuheng's attitude towards the original owner had always been to avoid her whenever possible, and later he even subtly favored Yu Zhaozhao in the competition for the crown prince.
"I caught a cold yesterday, so I put on more clothes."
After Yu Nian sent the national teacher away, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen Ye Luo for most of the day.
"Han Chen, do you know where Ye Luo is?"
Han Chen lowered his head, making it impossible to see his expression.
"Your Highness, this morning His Majesty discovered two pieces of cat hair in the palace. Furious, he demanded a thorough palace investigation. I suspect the proton is involved and have sent him to law enforcement for detention."
Two cat hairs?
Yu Nian suddenly remembered her quilt which was almost covered with cat hair, and asked nervously, "Have you found any clues yet?"
Han was silent for a moment and said, "Not found yet."
Yu Nian breathed a sigh of relief, "How could Ye Luo be related to this?"
Could it be that he also has a cat?
Yu Nian intuitively felt that it was not the same cat. She was more worried that the evil cat that broke into the palace might be Xiaobai?
After all, it was outside Yu Wanying's palace that she first met Xiaobai.
"By the way, is my bed made today?"
"The servants have already sent the old sheets and quilts for cleaning."
Yu Nian's heart was instantly broken, but she still struggled to ask, "Is it possible that it hasn't been cleaned yet?"
Han Chen raised his head, took in her nervous look as she bit her lip, and chose his words carefully: "Maybe... it's not too late yet."
Yu Nian immediately grabbed his hand and walked out. "Where did they send it to be cleaned? I suddenly remembered that a piece of jewelry I really like might have been left in there. Han Chen, take me to look for it."
The warm and soft touch lingered on his wrist. Han Chen was stunned for a moment and was actually pulled forward by her.
He let Yu Nian hold it, and said helplessly: "Your Highness, turn left in front."
Yu Nian walked very fast, and Han Chen followed her closely, appearing to be calm and unhurried.
Ye Luo, who had just been released from prison, saw the scene of the two holding hands clearly.
The man was standing at the corner of the corridor, and Yu Nian could see him if she turned her head.
But what he waited for was a pair of deep blue eyes, which clearly did not show much emotion. However, Ye Luo felt that he was showing off and provoking him.
What "I don't want to hurt him anymore" sounds really nice, but it turns out that he has set his eyes on another toy.
