Seeing that Gu Linchao and Wen Nongnong had walked away, Wen Tingyun patted his chest and said, "Did you notice just now that our Regent brother-in-law is a bit scary?"
"Haven't he always been like that?" Wen Tingyun retorted.
Wen Tingyun frowned. "But I felt that he was a little different from usual just now." She paused, then turned to look at her older brother. "Especially when he looked at you, brother, his eyes were extremely cold."
Wen Tingyun naturally knew what was going on, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "No, you're overthinking it."
Wen Tingyun was about to say something more when Xu Shi and Lu Yingying, who had gone to the toilet, returned, so he had to stop talking.
On the other side, Wen Nongnong sat next to Gu Linchao.
Of course, although the two were sitting side by side, there was enough room for two more people to sit in between, making the two sides very clearly separated.
Green Fairy didn't come along. She sat there bored, looking down and fiddling with the ornaments at her waist.
"Your Majesty's sachet is very beautiful." Wang Houde, who was standing behind her, couldn't help but praise it.
Upon hearing this, Wen Nongnong turned around and glanced at him, then smiled and said, "Eunuch Wang has excellent taste. I also think this sachet is very beautiful."
"Did Your Highness embroider this yourself?" Wang Houde's gaze fell on the sachet in her hand.
The two weren't speaking loudly, but Gu Linchao, who was sitting to the side, still heard them.
Her eyes flickered slightly; could she embroider a sachet?
“No.” Wen Nong Nong shook her head and whispered to Wang Houde, “This contains peach petals that I picked up at Jingci Palace last time. I originally wanted to embroider it myself, but my embroidery skills are really terrible. Fortunately, Lü Qiao is very skillful and embroidered one for me.”
As she spoke, she touched the exquisite embroidery on the sachet with great care.
It was a twin lotus flower.
She didn't really like it, but Lü Qiao said it had a good meaning, so she let it go, since she didn't know how to embroider anyway.
Upon hearing this, Wang Houde praised, "I never expected that Miss Lü Qiao would be so skillful. Her embroidery is even more exquisite than that of ordinary embroiderers."
"Right, right, I think so too." Wen Nongnong smiled, her eyes crinkling. She had finally found a listener who could empathize with her. Just as she was about to say something more, she suddenly felt a chill run down her spine, as if she were being watched by something.
She slowly turned her head and saw Gu Linchao's gaze shift away.
She was stunned for a moment.
From her angle, she could only see his profile.
But his profile is perfect too.
His posture was upright and elegant, with an exceptionally beautiful profile and a long neck. The collar of his ceremonial robe was rather conservative, tightly wrapping around his neck, giving him an air of asceticism. His shoulders and back were straight, and his waistline was smooth...
The girl stared at him blatantly and directly, which Gu Linchao naturally noticed. His fingers, resting on his knees, quietly clenched.
"Oh, is Your Highness hot?"
Wen Nongnong suddenly gasped in surprise.
Upon hearing this, Wang Houde followed her gaze and indeed saw that his master's smooth forehead was covered in a thin layer of sweat.
He paused for a moment, then quickly took out a clean handkerchief and handed it over, "Master, you're sweating, please wipe it off."
Gu Linchao pursed his lips, glanced at Wen Nongnong, and reached out to take it.
Wen Nongnong was greatly surprised and turned to look at Wang Houde, "Aren't you hot?"
Wang Houde looked at the sky and said, "Although the sun is shining brightly, the temperature is not high."
Wen Nongnong nodded and looked at Si Yi, "Are you hot?"
Si paused for a moment, then shook her head. "It's not hot."
Wen Nongnong nodded, thinking to herself, "That's more like it."
