I shook my head innocently: "No!"
"Are you bored? Don't you want to have breakfast?"
Before he could finish speaking, I immediately slipped away as fast as I could.
Ye Lisheng was raised under the watchful eye of Imperial Physician Wang, and she was so shocked by my interaction with him that she almost lost her teeth.
Having seen many grand occasions, he chuckled and asked with a mysterious air, "Your Highness seems very happy!"
"Is Imperial Physician Wang also very free?" he asked coldly.
A chill ran through the Imperial Physician Wang's body, and just as he was about to speak, Ye Lisheng continued...
"I woke up on my own after falling into the secret cave. If you want to know, you may have to go to the secret cave to find me!"
Before the imperial physician could even speak, he ordered the guests to leave: "Send these guests out for me!"
The guard behind him tactfully said, "Imperial Physician Wang, this way please!"
The study was filled with bookshelves, and the room was filled with the scent of ink and paper.
"Lingran, is the secret cave ready?"
Ling Ran appeared in the study as if by magic: "Reporting to Your Highness, everything has been tidied up according to your instructions, and I guarantee that Imperial Physician Wang will not be able to find a trace of it!"
"very good!"
I held the pen for a long time, but in the end, I didn't put it down. My smiling face appeared in my mind.
"What is that woman doing now?"
Ling Ran was a little surprised that her master had started caring about others.
"Your Highness, someone saw Miss go out dressed as a man!"
A surge of inexplicable anger welled up inside him, and with a loud "bang!", Ye Lisheng slammed the brush down on the table, splattering black ink onto the pristine white Xuan paper.
Startled, Ling Ran immediately knelt down: "Your...Your Highness!"
Ye Lisheng, realizing what was happening, was also startled, but still cursed under her breath, "You wretched woman, always so restless!"
As Ling Ran knelt, reflecting on her mistakes, she felt a gust of wind brush past her ear. When she looked up again, Ye Lisheng had vanished.
"Young master, what if the prince finds out?" I dressed Xiangye in men's clothing and dragged her to the market.
"Don't worry, we'll be right back!"
The melodious piano music lifted everyone's spirits, but why did the music sound so familiar?
Pushing through the crowd, I saw Yanran playing the piano. Just as I was wondering what was going on, a discordant sound rang out.
"Bah! Not content with seducing men in the Xinghua Pavilion, she comes out on the street to seduce them too. How shameless!"
The speaker was a plump woman whose face trembled as she spoke.
The other women chimed in, "How shameless!"
Amidst the string of foul and obscene words, a deep sadness filled Yanran's eyes, and a single, dull tear slid down her cheek.
"I was so angry that I blurted out, 'Ma'am, could you please be a little more polite in the future?'"
"Are you blind?! Who are you calling 'auntie'?!"
I gave her a smug look: "Whoever answers is an old lady!"
The others covered their mouths and chuckled secretly. She was a little annoyed and said, "Where did this meddlesome pretty boy come from! Is he perhaps a customer of this little bitch's brothel!"
The audience burst into laughter after I finished speaking, and Yanran quickly told me to leave.
At this moment, a middle-aged man dressed in expensive clothes, exuding the aura of money, tossed some loose silver coins at Yanran's feet.
"This is a reward from your lord!"
"Quick, pick it up!" the onlookers jeered.
"This young lady owes me 30 taels of silver. So she came here to make money instead of paying it back!"
As he spoke, his eyes gleaming with lust, he said, "How about this! If you submit to me, the money you owe will be wiped clean!"
Yanran's face was full of anger: "Uncle Jia, Yanran will repay what she owes you!"
"What will you give me in return? My body?"
A series of harsh laughs slapped Yanran's face like blows.
I was furious behind him, and I was poised to pounce on Grandpa Jia's backside.
"Young Master!" Xiangye was terrified, her body trembling uncontrollably.
A scream rang out, and Grandpa Jia fell face-first to the ground, yelling, "Which reckless brat is it?!"
I couldn't help but secretly regret kicking him too lightly. He staggered to his feet.
His eyes widened in anger as he shouted, "Chase after them!"
Several men dressed as servants immediately appeared from the crowd and walked towards me.
I pulled Xiangye through the crowd, but Xiangye was exhausted and started panting after just a few steps.
"Young master! Don't worry about me!"
"Where do you think you're going to run off to!"
Several men surrounded us, all with fierce expressions. Old Jia even stood by and ordered, "Give me a good beating!"
Yanran cried and pleaded for us.
"Young master, what should we do?" Xiangye was almost in tears.
"It's alright!" I comforted her, shielding her behind me.
But I was terrified. Neither Xiangye nor I knew martial arts, and there was no one to help us.
A fist came flying at me, and I trembled as I closed my eyes to accept the moment.
But the fist didn't land; instead, a scream was heard.
I opened my eyes, and there stood the boy before me, like an envoy sent from heaven to save me from my predicament.
"It's you!" I exclaimed, my eyes filled with surprise.
Upon seeing that a powerful figure had arrived, the servants swarmed forward.
"what to do?"
He smiled slightly at me: "Don't worry!"
Who would have thought that someone who looked like a frail scholar would be so formidable in a fight?
With a few swift moves, he knocked those people to the ground.
I couldn't wait to find my companions to go home together, so I asked directly, "What's your name?"
Her expectant eyes were filled with starlight, hoping to hear the answer she longed for.
