Wen Yu, who was full of nonsense, lay back on the couch and picked up the unfinished script.
"The heroine in this story is so annoying. She has to be a father, a mother, and a nanny, and she even has to give way to a concubine. What the hell, change the book."
Upon hearing this, Liu Dong immediately handed over the new book, "Princess, this is a new storybook, very popular, it tells the story of a scholar and a grateful female ghost."
Wen Yu lost interest when she heard this, "Is there a story about a beautiful lady and a male ghost who repays a favor?"
Liu Dong: "Uh, Princess, in the story books, there are very few male ghosts who come to repay their gratitude."
"Why?"
"Because there don't seem to be any male ghosts in the storybooks, only female ghosts."
Wen Yu: ...
"Boring." Wen Yu yawned, "It seems that most of these stories are written by men."
Liu Dong suddenly remembered something, "Princess, there is a banned book written by a woman. Do you want to read it?"
Wen Yu sat up a little straighter: "Banned book? Could it be the little uncle?"
Liu Dong's ears turned red: "No, princess, it was banned because the story was insulting to Master Mingjing of Yingguo Temple."
"It is said that the person who wrote the story went to Yingguo Temple to burn incense and saw Master Mingjing, and was bewitched and infatuated, and finally wrote the banned book in his delusion."
Wen Yu was interested: "Master Mingjing? Is it good looking?"
Liu Dong thought for a moment and said, "I have never seen her, but she should not be very good-looking. Many people have come to see Master Mingjing for advice, but I have never heard anyone praise the Master's appearance."
"As for the story, that's just a rumor, I don't know if it's true or not."
Wen Yu nodded: "That's right, those who can be called masters are all old men in their seventies or eighties, and the young ones are all young monks."
Liu Dong: ...
Wen Yu asked curiously, "Is there any in the Forbidden Book House? I want to see it!"
"Yes, I will get it right away."
Liu Dong rummaged through boxes and cabinets, and finally found the banned book from a corner and handed it to Wen Yu.
The three huge characters "求春记" on the cover of the book made Wen Yu sit up straighter.
What a nice, bold name.
Wen Yu turned a page and closed it with a wink.
He flipped back several pages and closed the book again with a wink.
"Liu Dong, isn't this the complete little imperial uncle?"
Liu Dong was surprised: "Really? But they said he was banned because he insulted Master Mingjing."
Wen Yu: ...
"How about you guess what humiliation is?"
Liu Dong: ...
She reacted and shouted, "Ah! Princess, please return me to this slave! How can you, a precious body, watch these things!"
Liu Dong grabbed the banned book and hurriedly put it back in the corner.
Wen Yu stroked her chin. She usually only touched on the edges of the storybooks, but the book just now was amazing...
Although I just glanced at it casually.
No wonder Liu Dong reacted so strongly.
Wen Yu took a bite of the strawberry and suddenly remembered Lance whom she had forgotten.
"Liuchun, go to the kitchenette and get Lance something to eat. Tell him so."
Liuchun nodded, went to the small kitchen, brought a bowl of pastries without tea, and placed it on the ground in front of Lance.
"Eat it."
Lance lowered his eyes to look at the pastries and glanced away expressionlessly.
Liu Chun sighed: "There are some things I shouldn't say, but I can't bear to see the princess so sad, so you should eat."
Lance was speechless for a moment: "She is sad? What is she sad about?"
Liu Chun shook his head, his tone somewhat disappointed: "You don't understand the princess's heart, and you hurt her heart... It's up to you whether you want to eat it or not."
Lance looked at the pastries and fell silent again.
He didn't understand Wen Yu's feelings and hurt her heart?
But how sincere is she?
Sometimes he felt that she liked him, but she couldn't say it out loud because they were opposites.
Sometimes he felt that she didn't like him and was just teasing him.
These days he even kept wavering in his doubts about whether Wen Yu liked him or not.
He wanted to know how much Wen Yu liked him if she really liked him, and if she didn't like him, why would she say things that made him toss and turn.
But what he finally asked was, "How sincere are you to me?"
Thinking of this, Lance suddenly smiled.
What the hell is sincerity and what the hell is love? In front of Xili and the upcoming plan, none of them are worth mentioning.
He once again said in his heart that those who achieve great things will never indulge in personal affairs.
But for now, he has to go along with Wen Yu in order to push the plan forward.
Lance looked at the plate of pastries on the ground: ...
How can he eat with his hands tied?
Lance glanced at Wen Yu's door, lay down on his side, picked up a piece of cake, took a bite, and just after swallowing it, he frowned as if he was poisoned.
It's so choking...
There is no water yet.
Wen Yu walked up to him, holding a bright and juicy rose, and squatted down and asked, "Are you willing to eat it?"
Lance turned over and sat up, feeling slightly uncomfortable: "Yeah."
He was already waiting for Wen Yu's laughter and her ridicule.
But Wen Yu said softly, "Let's not be on the defensive, okay? You stay in the princess's mansion obediently, don't think about Xili anymore, forget your identity as the eldest prince, I won't treat you unfairly."
Lance stared at the red rose in Wen Yu's hand and suddenly asked, "This is a flower unique to Xili. Do you like it?"
"I like it very much." Wen Yu touched it and slightly curved her eyes, "Because it is very unique in my heart."
Upon hearing this, Lance's blue eyes couldn't help but reveal a hint of tenderness, but it was quickly retracted and hidden away.
"Do you know why the emperor has not killed me?"
