Yuan Yao, thick-skinned as ever, replied with a smile, "Yao'er is here! Brother Yun Chan, what's wrong?"
The angrier Yun Chan got, the more she wanted to tease him.
It would be best to make him cry too!
She cried once, and he cried once too, that's only fair.
Yun Chan was not fooled.
Frowning, Yun Chan picked up the spoon and said coldly, "You're still young, you need to develop good habits. Don't talk while eating or sleeping, understand?"
One should not speak while eating or sleeping?
Yuan Yao tilted her head: "Are there so many rules in Chu? Every night before I go to sleep, as long as my father is there, he will hold me and tell me stories! During meals, he will also ask me if I like any of the dishes."
She suddenly realized: "So, my father, the Nine Thousand Years Old, is actually a man full of bad habits!"
Yun Chan: "..."
He wouldn't dare say that!
Yun Chan coughed twice, covering her mouth, and said coldly, "Let's eat!"
"Mmm!" Yuan Yao picked up her chopsticks and put food on Yun Chan's plate again: "Here, try this..."
The meal took a full half hour to finish.
Yun Chan was probably really hungry; she finished the whole bowl of porridge, and there wasn't much food left on the table.
The palace servants came to clear the table. Yuan Yao glanced at the time and said to Yun Chan, "You should rest well. I have to go to the National Academy during the day, so I'll have Danqing bring you food. I'll bring you more in the evening."
"Hmm..." Yun Chan responded.
Yuan Yao beckoned for someone to come and put small shoes on her and help her out of bed.
Just as she was about to leave, Yun Chan called out to her, "Yuan Yao."
"What's wrong?" Yuan Yao asked, looking up.
Yun Chan pursed her lips and asked, "That day in the classroom, when the teacher caught you, what were you writing?"
"Ah..." Yuan Yao exclaimed softly, then said rather shyly, "It's the name of a dessert shop..."
Dessert shop?
After a moment's thought, Yun Chan understood.
He leaned against the headboard and looked at Yuan Yao: "I'll name you. Come find me tomorrow."
A minor disagreement led her to suggest a name for her dessert shop?
That's wonderful!
Yuan Yao said happily, "I'm terrible at naming things, but since you can come up with a name, then it's up to you! I'll definitely come find you tomorrow!"
"Okay, go ahead," Yun Chan said calmly.
"Okay!" Yuan Yao stood by the bed and waved. "Yun Chan, goodnight, sweet dreams!"
After speaking, she skipped away without waiting for Yun Chan's reply.
On the bed, Yun Chan's lips curved into a smile.
On the way back, Yuan Yao walked with a cheerful pace.
Upon entering Qianhua Palace, she asked, "Has Father returned?"
Danqing replied, "His Majesty has not yet returned."
Yuan Yao nodded and then asked, "Have all the things I ordered to be sent to Haoran Hall been delivered?"
"It's been delivered." Danqing said with a gentle smile, "The desserts at our Qianhua Palace are unique. The ministers who were discussing matters all praised them after tasting them and asked where they could buy them!"
"Really?" Yuan Yao was quite happy: "The more people like it, the better our business will be when we open a shop!"
Upon hearing this, Danqing's smile widened: "With so many ideas, the princess's business is sure to be successful."
Yuan Yao cupped her face in her hands and said wistfully, "I really hope my shop can open soon..."
The next day, Yuan Yao was still half asleep when he was lifted up.
The Ninth Prince, dressed in a black robe and red shirt, was dazzlingly handsome: "Little lazybones, get up, you'll be late for school."
Yuan Yao drooped her head and yawned, saying, "Daddy, I can't get up. Yao'er is kidnapped by the bed..."
Are you being held hostage by your bed?
What's going on in this little dumpling's head?
The Ninth Prince chuckled lightly: "If you can't get up in the morning, then I won't take you out to play this afternoon."
Going out to play?
Yuan Yao yawned and immediately perked up.
She opened her arms and clung to the Ninth Prince, asking with teary eyes, "Where are we going to play?"
The Ninth Prince pinched her chubby cheek: "Outside the city."
Go outside the city?
But……
Yuan Yao hesitated and said, "Father, I promised Yun Chan that I would go see him tonight."
Yun Chan?
The Ninth Prince narrowed his long, narrow eyes: "Is Yun Chan more important, or is Father more important?"
Ah, this...
Yuan Yao considered it for a moment, then hugged the Ninth Prince's robe tightly and said obsequiously, "Is there any need to ask? Of course, Father is the most important!"
As for the little misunderstanding, she told Danqing to go and say something!
It seems that Xiao Biejui probably wishes she wouldn't bother him!
After snuggling in the arms of the Ninth Prince for a while, Yuan Yao looked up and saw the bloodshot eyes in the Ninth Prince's eyes. She was slightly taken aback and asked, "Father, did you not sleep all night again?"
The Ninth Prince said nonchalantly, "It's alright, I've already rested for a while."
"Really?" Yuan Yao was skeptical.
The clothes he was wearing were clearly not the ones from yesterday.
He probably came back to change his clothes and also to wake her up for school.
Thinking of this, Yuan Yao felt a pang of heartache: "Father, could you please stay up less late in the future? Look, your eyes are all red from staying up so late."
As she spoke, she touched the corner of his eye with her small hand.
If she keeps working like this, her handsome father will probably get wrinkles and turn into an old man...
I feel heartbroken.
The Ninth Prince raised his hand and pulled her small hand down: "After I finish dealing with government affairs, I will come back to catch up on my sleep. When you finish your studies, you will be able to see your father."
"Oh well……"
Yuan Yao arrived a little late.
When she arrived at the school, the teacher was already there.
Upon seeing her, the teacher stroked his beard and said, "Princess, please take a seat as soon as possible."
"Thank you, Master." Yuan Yao obediently walked to her seat.
At this moment, a voice said, "When did the rules of the National Academy become so lax? Students who are late don't even have to be punished?"
faint!
Which little brat is being so annoying?
Did Lin Xuan infect you?
Yuan Yao looked up.
Oh, it's Jiang Chengyan.
Strange, why is Jiang Chengyan in their class?
Yuan Yao was somewhat surprised.
Seeing that Yuan Yao was staring at him, Jiang Chengyan said irritably, "Master, did you not hear what I said?"
Yuan Yao was late and disrupted the school. Aren't you going to do anything about it?
Master: "..."
He is deaf.
He can't hear anything.
At this moment, Xie Zhi, with a blade of grass in his mouth, said, "Second Prince, the school bell hasn't rung yet, so Xiao Yao'er isn't late."
Jiang Chengyan's face darkened: "When the teacher arrives, it is time for class. How can a student arrive later than the teacher?"
"If you want to study at the Academy of Chinese Learning, you must abide by the rules. Those who break the rules will be punished."
Xie Zhi: "..."
Yuan Yao: "..."
She truly had no idea how she had offended Jiang Chengyan.
Why did he have to punish her?
At this moment, Lin Xuan, with his gaping teeth, spoke up: "In our school, everyone is quite young, so the discipline is a bit lax."
His Highness the Second Prince, being a son of the dragon, would likely be a burden to our school if he stayed there.
In my opinion, His Highness the Second Prince would be better off attending the Crown Prince's academy.
“You…” Jiang Chengyan’s face immediately turned red with anger: “Lin Xuan, do you know who you are talking to?”
My grandmother said that the position of Crown Prince should have been his!
However, just because the Crown Prince's mother, Consort Lin, married his father, the Emperor, he lost his position as Crown Prince...
Whenever his grandmother, feeling sorry for him, brought up this matter with a sigh, he would feel deeply depressed...
Unexpectedly, even a nobody like Lin Xuan dared to use this to shut him up!
Jiang Chengyan slammed his hand on the desk and stood up. His voice, which had been childish, was now gloomy: "Yuan Yao, Xie Zhi, Lin Xuan, you guys, come out with me!"
