Wen Nong Nong's eyes were full of smiles. "I know. I will never praise other men again, even if it's not true. I will only praise my prince."
Gu Linchao's lips curled into a smile.
The two were talking and didn't notice the commotion behind them at all.
"Bai Li, move aside a bit, don't keep blocking my way." Wang Houde, who had been holding back for a long time, finally couldn't help but speak up.
Whether Bai Li did it on purpose or unintentionally, she always rode ahead of him. Whenever he moved to the left, she would move to the left as well; whenever he moved to the right, she would move to the right as well.
He was so thoroughly bullied that he lost all his temper.
If Wang Houde hadn't been certain she didn't have eyes in the back of her head, he would have seriously suspected she was doing it on purpose.
Bai Li, who was walking ahead, heard this and turned around to look at him in surprise, "The road is so wide, Eunuch Wang can just walk on it."
Wang Houde hesitated for a moment, then looked at the other girl's innocent expression. He decided not to argue with a little girl and said patiently, "Then don't move, let me go first."
Bai Li frowned. "Why?"
Wang Houde gritted his teeth, "Just don't move."
"Oh," Bai Li responded, and indeed reined in her horse.
Wang Houde breathed a sigh of relief and rode his horse quickly past her.
Bai Li curled her lip and muttered to herself: This eunuch's horsemanship is so bad, he can't even outrun others, yet he still expects others to let him pass. How dare he even ask for a ride.
She shook her head; she wouldn't argue with him.
On the carriage behind.
"Si Yi, can you slow down a bit?" Lü Qiao frowned and asked, trying to suppress the churning in her stomach.
Si glanced at her and said, "It's already slow enough. How much slower do you want it to be? If you're not satisfied, you can catch the train yourself."
Green Beauty choked for a moment, then shut her mouth and remained silent. If she knew how to drive a carriage, would she need him? She would have kicked him off the carriage long ago.
She suspected that Si Yi was deliberately driving so fast, and that he seemed to be deliberately choosing difficult routes, causing the carriage to bounce violently, and she almost got thrown off several times.
She had made up her mind that once she got back, she would learn to drive a carriage and ride a horse; she would never have to suffer such humiliation again.
The carriage sped forward for a while longer when suddenly, the wheels ran over a stone, and the carriage tilted to the side.
Green Fairy cried out in surprise and slumped against Si Yi.
Si Yi was controlling the reins when suddenly a soft body was stuffed into his arms. He froze for a moment, then instinctively reached out and pushed the person away.
But he didn't control his strength and sent the person flying.
"Ah—" Green Fairy screamed, and her whole body fell out of control.
Upon seeing this, Si Yi was startled and quickly released the reins, leaping away.
Green Fairy tightly closed her eyes, thinking she was about to fall to the ground and be crippled if she didn't die. Just as she was in critical condition, her waist suddenly tightened.
She was stunned for a moment, then opened her eyes and saw Si Yi's annoyingly cold and handsome face.
Si Yi met her eyes and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. He reached out and pulled her back to the carriage, which was still moving forward.
Even after she sat back on the carriage shaft, Lü Qiao was still a little dazed. Looking at the young man who had regained control of the reins, she moved her lips, and after a long while, she awkwardly said, "Thank you."
"Thank me for what?" Si Yi suddenly turned his head and gave her a half-smile. "Thank me for throwing you out, or thank me for saving your life?"
Upon hearing this, Lü Qiao became very angry. "How could you be like this? That was really dangerous just now. I almost fell to my death..."
"Aren't you still sitting here perfectly fine?" Si Yi said coldly. "Besides, if you hadn't suddenly thrown yourself at me, would I have thrown you out?"
"I threw myself at you?" Green Beauty was furious. "If you hadn't driven the carriage so fast, it wouldn't have tilted, and I wouldn't have lost my balance and fallen on you." What kind of person is he? She fell on him, but coming from his mouth, it all sounds completely different.
Throwing yourself into his arms? Never in this lifetime!
"Are you trying to explain to me?" Si Yi glanced at her. "There's no need for that."
"Who needs to explain to you? I'm just stating the facts." Green Beauty's face flushed red with anger, her chest heaving slightly.
Si Yi chuckled and fell silent.
Green Beauty pursed her lips in anger.
We arrived at the Prince Tun's Mansion.
As soon as Wen Nongnong dismounted, she saw Lü Qiao walking over with her hair all messy. She said in surprise, "Lü Qiao, what did you do? Your hair looks like a bird's nest."
Upon hearing this, Lü Qiao quickly raised her hand to tidy her hair, saying, "Maybe...maybe it was messed up by the wind." In her mind, she cursed Si Yi again.
Si Yi, who had just parked his carriage and was walking over, suddenly sneezed.
Hearing this, Wang Houde patted him on the shoulder and teased, "Why are you sneezing all of a sudden? Did some girl scold you?"
Si Yi paused in rubbing his nose and subconsciously looked at Lü Qiao.
Green Fairy's heart tightened, and she avoided eye contact, asking, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"How do you know I'm looking at you if you're not looking at me?" Si Yi sneered.
Their back-and-forth conversation finally drew everyone's attention.
Even Gu Linchao couldn't help but glance at the two of them.
Wen Nongnong took his arm, looked at the two of them thoughtfully, and finally said with a smile, "Have you two eaten gunpowder? Why do you give off the feeling that you're having an affair?"
"Miss, you...you shouldn't talk nonsense." Green Fairy was startled and blushed as she spoke.
Si Yi frowned and glanced at Wen Nongnong, but said to Gu Linchao, "Master, the Princess Consort speaks without thinking. Aren't you going to do something about it?"
Wen Nongnong's lips twitched slightly. "Isn't it inappropriate for you to complain to your master in front of me?"
Gu Linchao patted her head reassuringly and looked at Si Yi, "The Princess didn't say anything, why are you in such a hurry?"
Si Yi: "..."
He shouldn't have said that. Now, his master only has eyes for the princess; even if she's wrong, he sees her as right, showing absolutely no principle.
Seeing Gu Linchao looking at her, Wen Nongnong said with a hint of arrogance, "That's right, if you have nothing to hide, why are you in such a hurry?"
Si gritted her teeth, "What could I possibly have to hide?"
Wen Nongnong said meaningfully, "That's hard to say. Maybe you have some ulterior motive towards our Luqiao?"
Green Fairy stared at her with wide eyes. What nonsense is Miss talking about?
Si Yi's temple throbbed, and he looked Lü Qiao up and down with a hint of disdain. "Her?" he said, then snorted and entered the Prince Tun's mansion first.
Green Fairy's expression turned somewhat unpleasant; this guy was too hateful.
Wen Nong Nong patted her shoulder reassuringly, "It's Si Yi who has no taste. Don't take his words to heart."
“I know, but I don’t even think much of him,” said Lü Qiao, clenching her fist. “He’s rude, barbaric, and arrogant. Only Your Highness can tolerate him.”
Wen Nongnong felt something was off about what she said next.
What do you mean that only Gu Linchao can tolerate Si Yi?
It's as if the two of them have some kind of subtle relationship.
