Carrying the food, Yuan Yao strolled leisurely to Yuquan Palace.
In the garden, soft couches were set up.
When Yuan Yao left, Ye Changyou was lying on a soft couch, covered with a large cloak and with a book covering his face, basking in the sun.
Not far from the soft couch is the pavilion.
The place where Ye Changyou lay was right downwind.
Yuan Yao had the palace servants set out the food on the stone table in the pavilion before lifting her skirt and walking over to Ye Changyou.
"Greetings, Night Emperor."
Ye Changyou closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep, feigning that he hadn't heard anything.
Yuan Yao smiled.
She walked around the soft couch: "The night is long and dark?"
"presumptuous!"
Ye Changyou abruptly ripped the book off his face, turned over, and stared at Yuan Yao with a gloomy expression.
After so much time, Yuan Yao was no longer afraid of him.
She smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just wanted to say hello. Now that you've said hello, Night Emperor, you can go back to sleep."
I'm starving after walking all this way, time to go eat!
After saying that, she waved to Ye Changyou, lifted the hem of her skirt, and entered the pavilion.
A breeze came.
The rich aroma of milk and meat wafts through the air.
"Gurgle..."
The eerie sound was loud and prolonged.
Supported by Jing'er, Yuan Yao sat on a stone bench covered with thick cushions and asked curiously, "Jing'er, did you hear something making a sound just now?"
Jing'er chimed in, "It seems so."
Yuan Yao then looked at Ye Changyou: "Emperor Ye, did you hear anything?"
Ye Changyou: "..."
Ye Changyou's phoenix eyes were dark and deep: "I didn't hear you!"
“Oh…” Yuan Yao drawled, “It seems that the Night Emperor has gone mad from hunger and is starting to lose his hearing.”
Isn't this insulting him by calling him deaf?
Little girl!
Ye Changyou gritted his teeth and said, "I'm not hungry!"
"Gurgle..."
This time, the sound was even louder than before.
This wretched belly!
The night was long and the air was thick with melancholy.
He looked up, his gaze turning sinister as he stared at Yuan Yao: "Take your things and get out of here!"
"You think I'll just go out if you tell me to?" Yuan Yao blinked and said defiantly, "I'm hungry, let's eat first!"
I've heard that His Majesty the Night Emperor is on a hunger strike, so Yao'er won't invite you to eat with him!
After saying that, she picked up a bowl of soup, took a sip, and exclaimed, "The fish soup is so delicious today!"
Jing'er said happily, "If the princess likes to drink, then drink more! Come, princess, try this rabbit meat..."
Yuan Yao praised each dish she ate.
Ye Changyou: "..."
"Gurgle..."
I'm so hungry.
I'm so thirsty.
It smells so good...
The more he tried to ignore it, the more the aroma of the food and desserts seemed to relentlessly assault his nostrils.
My stomach is betraying me again...
Yuan Yao was eating when everything went dark in front of her.
Ye Changyou sat opposite her and said coldly, "What about mine?"
Yuan Yao, holding her chopsticks, looked at him in surprise: "Wasn't the Night Emperor going on a hunger strike?"
Ye Changyou said angrily, "I just don't want to be alone!"
Yuan Yao: "?"
She didn't quite understand the thoughts of rebellious teenagers.
Ye Changyou rummaged through the food box for a moment, then asked angrily, "Where are the chopsticks?"
"You're not eating, so I didn't bring any for you," Yuan Yao said innocently.
"Who said I won't eat?"
Ye Changyou immediately took action and snatched the chopsticks from her hand.
Yuan Yao: "!!!"
Just as Ye Changyou was about to take her chopsticks to pick up some food, Yuan Yao hurriedly said, "Shut up right now!"
You naughty brat!
They actually wanted to use her chopsticks to eat!
How disgusting!
Ye Changyou gripped the chopsticks, frowning as she asked, "What's wrong? Could these chopsticks be poisoned?"
“Yes!” Yuan Yao glared at him irritably, then looked at Jing’er: “Get him some tableware.”
New bowls, chopsticks, and jade spoons were placed in front of Ye Changyou.
Hungry all morning, Ye Changyou's eyes turned green.
He devoured the entire table of food.
Yuan Yao couldn't help but exclaim: People who are growing up can really eat!
After finishing his meal, Ye Changyou asked, "Yuan Yao, I ask you, what is the state of the Eastern Night Kingdom?"
These days, the Ninth Prince told him to be a hostage and actually kept him locked up in the Jade Spring Palace.
News from inside the palace couldn't get out, and news from outside couldn't get in...
Ye Changyou is almost depressed.
Across from her, Yuan Yao slowly took a sip of her milk tea.
She looked at Ye Changyou: "My father's word is his bond, so you don't need to worry."
No wonder I'm worried!
Ye Changyou said, "What if I am destined to be a prisoner for the rest of my life?"
lifetime?
Yuan Yao said irritably, "Dream on! Even if you want to be one, the Great Qi wouldn't support you!"
They're so difficult to please, day after day!
"Where am I difficult to please?" Ye Changyou retorted.
"Always causing trouble, isn't it hard to please?" Yuan Yao said with disdain.
Since returning from Mingxia Mountain, Yuan Yao has lost count of how many times Ye Changyou has caused trouble...
Looking at the petite, jade-like figure opposite him, Ye Changyou coldly snorted: "I just wanted someone to keep me company!"
This palace is so boring!
When will the Chinese Academy open?
"I want to go to school! I want to see people! I want to leave the palace!"
"The Imperial Academy is about to start." Yuan Yao's eyes shifted slightly. "But you... you should stay in the palace obediently."
"Why?" Ye Changyou raised his voice in exasperation.
“Because…” Yuan Yao pursed her lips, “Da Qi and Dong Ye are currently at war!”
Combat?
Ye Changyou asked in surprise, "They really started fighting?"
“Mm.” Yuan Yao nodded.
Two weeks ago, the two countries had a clash at their border.
After the arson at Mingxia Lake, the Ninth Prince sent people to send the assassin's body to the Eastern Night Kingdom.
Upon learning that their scheme had been exposed, the Regent of Dongye Kingdom imprisoned the Empress Dowager and executed the envoy…
The Prince of Pingnan volunteered and personally led his men to the border.
Even Xie Zhi went along...
“Reports of battle have been coming back to the capital every day lately,” Yuan Yao said slowly. “The Regent of Dongye seems to have no intention of apologizing or backing down.”
The people of Qi, nearing the end of the night, have already been ordered to relocate. A large-scale war between the two nations may well ensue.
Upon hearing this, Ye Changyou's expression turned sinister, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "That dog Ye Wuzhou, I really want to skin him alive!"
Even if Ye Wuzhou dies, if he goes back to take over Dongye, he is destined to inherit a mess!
Thinking about it, the long night made everyone feel gloomy.
Yuan Yao looked at Ye Changyou and asked, "You promised my father, right?"
"What did you say?" Ye Changyou looked at Yuan Yao.
“Granola,” Yuan Yao said.
It can't be that the Ninth Prince helped him for nothing.
Warfare consumes both manpower and resources...
Upon hearing this, Ye Changyou solemnly declared, "After Ye Wuzhou's death, when I return to Dongye, Dongye's petroleum will be supplied exclusively to Daqi for at least the next fifty years!"
"That's good!" Yuan Yao looked at Ye Changyou critically: "Now it seems you're not so annoying anymore."
Ye Changyou: "?"
Is he in my way?
So, this little girl in front of him had always disliked him?
The night is long and dark, and I grit my teeth in silence.
He snatched the milk tea from Yuan Yao's hand and, in front of her shocked expression, drank it all in one gulp.
After finishing his drink, Ye Changyou looked at Yuan Yao and said, "I want to escape from the Great Qi Palace!"
Yuan Yao, now, the only one who will help you is me.
