Mi Xingli came forward with a smile.
Hua Chao asked curiously, "Young lady, normally at this time, shouldn't you be in the palace studying the ancient calendar?"
Mi Xingli spread his hands and said, "Today is the first day of the new year. Even if you are a prince of a country, you should take a break, right? I will be lazy for an hour today and go later!"
"It's time to take a break!"
Hua Chao smiled and nodded. She had a good impression of this young lady from the State of Chu. She did not have any of the arrogance of a wealthy family.
And he's pretty good to himself.
Mi Xingli looked at her with a half-smile: "Miss Hua Chao, how come you look so much more rosy in just one night?"
“Ah, this…”
Hua Chao was a little flustered, but soon calmed down: "I slept well last night, so my complexion will naturally improve."
Mi Xingli raised the corner of her mouth slightly: "It seems that what the ancient calendar said is indeed correct. The harmony of yin and yang can indeed help people improve their blood..."
“Ah, you!”
Hua Chao was startled and pretended to be confused: "I don't understand cultivation. What the lady said is so profound. I, I don't understand."
Mi Xingli raised her eyebrows and lowered her voice, "I saw it all, why are you hiding it? Miss Hua Chao, how many women in this world can compare to you? Are you really willing to be so sneaky like this?"
"you……"
Hua Chao was a little flustered, bit her lip and said, "As long as I can stay by his side, I will be satisfied. Young lady, please don't spread the news. Wuji is the consort of Dali. If this matter gets out, it will have a bad impact on him."
Mi Xingli spread her hands: "Of course I won't make it public, but Miss Hua Chao, do you know that Princess Yuanyang actually came back last night!"
"ah?"
Hua Chao's expression froze, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. He pulled the corners of his mouth with difficulty and said, "Young lady, please don't scare me. Princess Yuanyang has only been to the Prince Consort's Mansion once. How could she..."
Mi Xingli shook her head: "Why would I scare you? If you don't believe me, go ask the concierge to see if Princess Yuanyang has returned."
Hua Chao's face was a little pale, his fingers were tightly clenched, and he walked back and forth anxiously: "What should I do? It's all my fault for being too selfish. Isn't this hurting Wuji? He is already living under someone else's roof, and Princess Yuanyang found out..."
Look at her face full of self-blame.
Mi Xingli suddenly felt a desire to fight.
In her heart, Hua Chao is Ying Wuji's official partner, so why is she so wronged?
I, the daughter of the Great Chu, am the first one to disagree!
She took Hua Chao's hand, walked quickly to the main hall, and pressed Hua Chao on the chair: "Don't panic! This matter is far from as bad as you think. The status of that brat in the Li royal family can be described as living under someone else's roof, which is completely contrary to the truth!"
"But……"
"No buts!"
Mi Xingli waved her hand: "Think about it carefully. You were clearly doing... doing that kind of thing, and Princess Yuanyang found out, but she still didn't expose it, and let you sleep until you woke up naturally. Don't you understand what this means?"
Hua Chao was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer.
Mi Xingli smiled and twisted her chin, smiling at her like a gangster: "It means that the royal family will turn a blind eye to you, my beauty! There is no need to humble yourself so much. Even if you regard yourself as the mistress here, no one will say anything to you!"
Hua Chao was a little bit unbelieving, but when she thought about it, it seemed to be true, otherwise there was no way to explain Princess Yuanyang's behavior.
She was somewhat expectant, but still worried: "Is that really the case?"
Mi Xingli snorted, "I am the daughter of the Great Chu State. No one knows what the royal family is thinking better than me! You can believe it if you want to, or just continue to be the punching bag if you don't want to. I don't care. I'm going to study the ancient calendar. See you tonight, my beauty!"
After saying that, he stretched out his fingers and scratched her face, then left the Prince Consort's Mansion with a smile.
"this……"
Hua Chao clenched her hands in front of her chest and muttered to herself, "Is this really possible?"
She sat in the main hall for a long time, and her mentality, which had calmed down somewhat, began to turmoil again.
In a daze.
There were footsteps outside the door.
She looked out and was overjoyed when she saw who was coming.
He hurried over to greet him: "Wuji! Why are you back so early? Don't you have any work to do today?"
Ying Wuji smiled and said, "I have to come back to accompany you even if I am busy! Sister Hua Chao, why did you wake up so early? Did you get enough sleep?"
"Of course!"
Hua Chao smiled and nodded. Wuji was back, so even if she hadn't gotten enough sleep, she would get up.
She helped Ying Wuji brush off the snowflakes on his hair, and said softly, "It's cold, I'll make you some wine to warm you up!"
"No need! You're warm enough for me, why would I drink?"
Ying Wuji smiled and pulled Hua Chao's slightly cold hand over and held it in his palm to warm it.
Hua Chao's cheeks turned slightly red. When she first met Ying Wuji, he often said these words, but they were just jokes at the time and she didn't take them seriously.
But now...
Even though they were the same words, she was a little overwhelmed.
Moreover, this is the main hall of the Prince Consort's Mansion, and he is like this. Could it be that what the young lady said is correct?
Ying Wuji grabbed her hand and kissed the back of it gently: "Sister Hua Chao! We finally have some free time, shall we go out for a walk?"
"Where are we going?"
Hua Chao let him do whatever he wanted, her heart filled with happiness.
Ying Wuji thought for a moment and said, "I suddenly remembered that our bookstore and opera troupe haven't given out year-end bonuses yet. Why don't we go for a walk around the city and give out their year-end bonuses while we're at it!"
"Year-end bonus?"
