Chapter 11
Tang Mitang took the chopsticks with trembling hands, climbed up shakily, sat on the chair and ate the food desperately, while thinking about the plot of the story of the ascension.
"Oh! So pitiful! Zhou Erlan is a poor, unlucky child who lacks love. He's a bit rebellious and his sister doesn't love him. Just like me when I was little, my parents let him go and never disciplined me strictly. This is what led me to live such an ordinary life..."
Cheng Zixuan's words as he watched this flashed through Tang Mitang's mind. Lack of love? Rebellious? Lack of discipline? Like him?
What was Cheng Zixuan's greatest wish? Tang Mitang tried hard to recall, only to recall the year he got drunk and cried, "I wish my parents had spanked me when I did something wrong and didn't study hard as a child, to wake me up. That way, I wouldn't have strayed and become incompetent..."
Cheng Zixuan’s wish is... to be beaten?
Ah, you bastard, why do you have to include your own personality in your writing?
Isn't that right? Zhou Erlan's personality mostly belongs to him, so what kind of personality is Cheng Zhixuan, who is based on him?
Tang Mitang was lost in thought, and only when he ate too much and couldn't help burping did he remember what he wanted to do.
Seeing Zhou Xuanqing's disdainful look, Tang Mitang smiled awkwardly, quickly put down her chopsticks, and said with a smile: "To solve the problem, we must solve it from the source. The relationship between the siblings is very good, why would the brother want to kill his sister?"
"I don't know..." Zhou Xuan shook his head obediently after listening, his hands on the table, his eyes full of curiosity.
"Yes! So the most urgent thing is to find the reason. No one would suddenly turn against each other. There must be a reason why the brother wants to kill his sister."
Tang Mitang looked at Zhou Xuanqing and secretly thought she was adorable. Even if Zhou Xuanqing was amazing, she was only nineteen, the age for college. Couldn't she, an older sister who had lived eight years longer than her, enlighten her?
"Well, how do we find the reason?" Zhou Xuanqing asked.
"Communication is a good way to solve all problems. There is no barrier between siblings. As long as we communicate more, everything can be solved. As the saying goes, we are not afraid of quarrels, but we are afraid of cold wars. If you don't speak up and I don't speak up, even the best relationship will cool down."
Looking at Zhou Xuanqing's eyes full of thirst for knowledge, she felt like a great people's teacher who was rescuing a lost little sheep.
Zhou Xuanqing nodded, thinking that what Tang Mitang said made sense. Sometimes when there were disagreements in the court, communication was necessary. But... "How should we communicate?"
"Oh! That's easy!" Tang Mitang clapped her thigh excitedly upon hearing this, and leaned forward and said, "Your Majesty, you and your Highness live in the palace and the palace respectively, one of you lives in the palace, and you don't even touch each other. How can you possibly communicate well? Distance doesn't create beauty, it only creates barriers. If you want to build a good relationship, you have to get close to him. Only when we're face to face can we have something to talk about~"
"Indeed." Zhou Xuanqing nodded and responded. Suddenly, he remembered something, and a hint of embarrassment flashed across his amber pupils. He lowered his eyelids slightly, licked his lips, and said in a cold voice, "It's not me and the prince!"
Tang Mitang couldn't help but want to laugh when she saw this look of concealing embarrassment, but seeing Zhou Xuanqing's warning eyes, she nodded seriously and said, "Yes, yes, I know."
"Okay, you go out and call Chang Xi in." After Zhou Xuanqing said this, he stood up and walked towards the inner room.
Tang Mitang looked at her back, smiled, and happily went out to call Chang Xi.
Chang Xi watched Tang Mitang come out and looked at her puzzledly.
"Eunuch Changxi, the emperor is calling you." Tang Mitang said, and then ran towards the round hole door. She was going to find her lovely bed.
La la la ~ She is Fatty Tang... a little cutie who sleeps, eats, eats, and sleeps~
Chang Xi looked at her cheerful figure and touched his chin in confusion. What happened to Tang Mi? Was she praised by the emperor?
Chang Xi walked in and looked at the little food left on the table. He was shocked for a moment. Is the emperor so hungry today? That's not right. Doesn't the emperor dislike eating these dishes?
Although confused, he did not dare to ask the emperor, so he had to call the palace maid to clean up and he went into the inner room himself.
"Your Majesty, are you looking for a servant?"
"Well, are there any outings planned recently?" Zhou Xuanqing looked at Chang Xi and asked with raised eyebrows.
"Well……"
Chang Xi was stunned for a moment, his eyes filled with confusion. What did the emperor mean by this?
"Your Majesty, we just celebrated the Dragon Boat Festival yesterday, and we have no plans for this month."
"No arrangements?" Zhou Xuan asked, tilting his chin.
Why aren't there any plans? Then what's the reason for contacting Lan'er?
"Uh, yes, Your Majesty, there are indeed no arrangements." Chang Xi didn't know what Zhou Xuanqing wanted to do, so he could only answer respectfully.
"Okay, I'm going out for a while, please keep watch for me." Zhou Xuanqing waved his hand and didn't bother about it anymore. There was still a long time to come, so there was no rush.
Upon hearing this, Chang Xi came close to Zhou Xuanqing, with a timid face and narrowed eyes, looking at Zhou Xuanqing with a smile, and said flatteringly: "Your Majesty, do you need a servant to accompany you?"
"Get out." Zhou Xuanqing turned around and kicked him on the waist, pried open the wooden dragon on the shelf, and a door appeared on the wall.
"I won't leave. I'll help the emperor guard the place~" Chang Xi patted his waist with a smile, sent Zhou Xuanqing in, looked at her back and waved his hand, just like a lucky cat.
After the door was closed, Chang Xi slowly sat down on the steps under the couch, picked up the travel notes on the table, slowly opened them, and read them bit by bit.
Alas, I have stolen half a day of leisure from my busy life.
Tang Mitang lay on her comfortable bed, drooling on her pillow, her face slightly flushed from sleep.
"Bang"
A heavy object fell to the ground, and a dark blue figure stood up. He looked at the person sleeping like a pig on the bed, and turned back speechlessly to look at Mu Tou who was still trying to look cool.
Mu Tou supported himself on the ground with one fist, staring fiercely at the front. He slowly turned his head to check if it was safe. After looking around, he made a "stick" gesture with his other hand and his thumb brushed across the tip of his nose.
"Cool!"
Mu Tou screamed and fell to the ground. He looked resentfully at Zhou Erlan who had just "righteously" kicked him, then patted his butt and climbed up.
"Mu Tou, wake her up." Zhou Erlan crossed her arms, raised her chin towards the bed, and motioned Mu Tou to call Tang Mitang.
Mu Tou shook his head and blinked at Zhou Erlan to indicate that he couldn't do it. "Your Highness, men and women shouldn't touch each other..."
