Jiaochu

No, no, you have to give in.

"Father—"

Before he could say anything, Ye Lanchen threw up his sleeves and walked away with a gloomy expression.

Eunuch De quickly called the maids and eunuchs serving in the study to leave. When Furong looked in the direction of the two of them, she was caught by Ye Lingxi. The latter's eyes were full of stern and cold reproach, and Furong avoided it unnaturally. He opened his eyes and retreated.

"Big Brother" Her next words were drowned in the deafening thunder before she could even think about it.

There was a thunder that shook the windows, and the dazzling light of lightning suddenly split the air like a sharp blade.

Ye Lingxi raised her hands to cover her ears and looked down at the ground. She didn't like the weather with thunder and lightning, especially the deafening thunder, which seemed to knock people out of their wits before stopping.

Then there was the sound of crackling rain, dense and dense, like firecrackers.

She covered her ears and vaguely heard a sound. She turned to look at Ye Qingran, leaned closer and asked, "Brother, what did you just say?" As soon as she finished speaking, the window shook a few more times due to thunder, and she immediately used Covering his ears with his hands, he raised his voice and said, "Brother, tell me when there is no thunder."

Nearly an hour passed before the thunder and lightning outside the window dispersed.

The heavy rain also turned into light rain, and the study seemed to become extremely quiet all of a sudden.

Ye Lingxi quietly glanced back and stretched out his hand to rub his knees. Ye Qingran looked sideways and said in a low tone, "What are you doing here?"

Still think you are nosy? Ye Lingxi said, "Come and knock the big brother out and carry him back."

The atmosphere was somewhat silent.

It was almost noon and no one had come to announce the decree.

Ye Lingxi raised her head and glanced at the memorial placed on the dragon table, then lowered her head and glanced back. No one came over. She thought to herself that her father was so angry that he couldn't even approve the memorial?

Just when I was thinking about whether I would have to kneel for a day, Eunuch De came in.

Ten days passed in a flash.

She didn't know how many books she had copied in the library, and she hadn't counted them, but there were at least dozens of them. These days, she couldn't go anywhere except copying books in the library. She was thinking about the following things in her head:

First, has Father calmed down?

Second, did the mother-in-law eat well and sleep well these days? Did she cry?

Third, has Big Brother figured it out?

Fourth, does Sister Su know about this?

Fifth, will Brother Yan come to see me secretly?

There were also some things that occasionally ran through her mind. After all, apart from copying books, she could only think about it in her mind.

In the evening, the little eunuch who delivered the meal came. Ye Lingxi was immersed in copying a book. Hearing the sound of the door opening, he didn't notice two people walking in. The next moment he heard a familiar voice and suddenly raised his head, "Princess~" Zhu'er hurried over with a food box in her eyes, with tears in her eyes. The little eunuch retreated first.

"Princess has lost weight." Pearl was so distressed that she almost shed tears, and wiped her eyes with a handkerchief.

Ye Lingxi explained: "I haven't eaten yet, and I got fat after eating." Zhu'er smiled, opened the food box and took out the dishes that Ye Lingxi liked to eat. Ye Lingxi asked her mother-in-law if she was okay, Zhuer told her not to worry, and asked her to take care of herself. She told her many words, and Ye Lingxi nodded while eating.

Ye Lingxi originally thought that her father was about to lose his temper and would be able to go out in two days. If he was still angry, Zhuer would not be allowed to come and bring him food.

But it turns out she was wrong.

More than half a month passed, and she was still copying books in the library. Except for the little eunuch who came to deliver meals on time every day, no one came to see her anymore. In the dead of night, she felt as if she had been forgotten in this small room in the library. She even thought that she would be locked up here for two or three years, or even longer, or simply unable to get out, spending every day here. Copying books until she turned into an old girl, she laughed as she thought about it. Perhaps only such outrageous imagination could make her life less monotonous.

While she was lamenting and reminiscing about the drama "A Young Princess in Tragedy", there was a thud, as if someone knocked on the window with a small stone, neither light nor heavy.

She got up and walked over gently, hiding by the window and whispered who it was, but no one answered. She gently opened the window and looked outside. She didn't see anyone. She thought it was her auditory hallucination. She saw the stars in the night sky. It’s so bright, just open the window completely and lie on the windowsill to watch the stars.

A group of guards patrolled past below.

After a while, a figure flew from the shadow of the tree next to the eaves. The slight sound of feet landing on the glazed tiles startled the people who were looking at the stars. Ye Lingxi poked his head out and looked to the side, feeling a surge in his heart. Indescribable joy seemed to overflow into my hair, like a very sweet piece of honey melting in my heart. I was so happy that it caught people off guard.

Yan Fei didn't expect to be caught as soon as he used Qing Kung to fly up. He was a little embarrassed. When he saw the face smiling at him, he turned slightly red. He took out a package of things from his arms and handed it over. Ye Lingxi took it. It was warm when it came over, and I didn't know how long I kept it in my arms. He told me to rest early, and then used Qinggong to fly away.

There is sesame soft cake wrapped in oil paper. When you open it, you can smell the fragrance of sesame. It is not strong, but light, soaked in the cool night atmosphere, and it smells particularly good.

Let me rest early and bring food, she muttered in her heart, and then, while eating, she looked at the stars.

A shooting star passed by.

She immediately closed her eyes and made a wish, still holding half a piece of pastry in her mouth.

……

Maybe it was the meteor that appeared, and Eunuch De came over the next day.

She followed Eunuch De and left the library.

"Princess, when you see the emperor later, admit your mistake first, and the matter will be over." Eunuch De said diligently.

Ye Lingxi nodded, hummed, turned around, looked around, and asked in a low voice, "Is big brother okay?"

"This..." Eunuch De hesitated and sighed, "I can't hide this from the princess."

Ye Lingxi's heart skipped a beat, wouldn't she be imprisoned again like in her last life? !

"His Highness left for Qingzhou two days ago."

Hearing these words, Ye Lingxi stopped and didn't react for a moment. She looked at Eunuch De blankly, looking a little dazed. Eunuch De thought he was frightened and quickly explained, "Don't worry, princess. Your Highness is fine, you can go out and practice. Although Qingzhou is a bit far away, it has beautiful mountains and rivers, outstanding people, and many great talents live there in seclusion."

Ye Lingxi didn't say anything, as if he didn't listen. No matter how much Eunuch De tried to persuade him, he just stood there. Eunuch De had no choice but to stand here all the time. The imperial study room was still waiting for him to reply, so he asked Xiao Anzi to send Ye Lingxi back first.
