Jiaochu

Chapter 342 Good Impression

"What's your name? I didn't remember it just now." Ye Lingjue said calmly.

Afeng said his name again impatiently.

"I will remember it." Ye Lingjue's plain tone contained a hint of chilling coldness.

Ye Xingye recited silently in his mind that he must never offend his second brother. He was also very happy that Afeng was being targeted, and said in his heart that whoever let him bully the little princess deserved bad luck.

When the banquet was over, Ye Lingxi took another sneak peek at the cakes and took a piece without anyone paying attention. When she turned around to eat secretly, she heard someone calling her from behind. She immediately stuffed the remaining cakes into her mouth, covered her mouth and coughed lightly. He made a sound, pretending that his throat was uncomfortable, and quickly pumped his cheeks a few times before swallowing.

"Lingxi, what's wrong with you?"

Ye Lingxi turned around and told Ye Xingye that it was okay. The latter suddenly stared at the corner of her mouth, as if he had discovered something fishy, ​​and immediately showed a look of excitement about solving the mystery, "You are eating, right?"

"No." She denied firmly, then took out a small handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth, destroying the evidence.

Ye Xingzhi said there was nothing embarrassing about eating, and thought it was hard to guess what the little princess was thinking.

At this time, An Ning came over, glanced at the two of them, and left without saying hello. Afeng who was following her also pretended not to see the two of them.

Ye Lingxi discovered that Lei Qi was missing. She looked around but couldn't find him. Ye Xingye patted her shoulder lightly and said quietly, "Lingxi, what do you think this Princess An Ning is here for? You want an answer from your father? Is it possible that she really wants to come and get married as Lord Zheng said?" Ye Xingye said in a low voice. Lingxi said, "Third brother, don't worry, I'm not here for you." Ye Xingye breathed a sigh of relief, but the next moment he felt something was wrong.

After returning to the tent, Ye Lingxi first went to see the four cubs brought back from the forest. They were huddled together, two were white, the other was black, and the third was black and white. Color, are four young rabbits.

When we were in the forest before, Xiao Hei stayed under a tree and refused to leave. When Zhao Ce went to pull it, he found a hole under the tree. There were four little rabbits inside. They were crowded together and were no bigger than a palm. If they were left alone, , either starving to death or being eaten, Ye Lingxi brought all four cubs back.

At that time, An Ning tried to snatch the litter of cubs from her, but she refused to give them to her. An Ning mocked her and said that she would not be able to feed them for three days.

Looking at the four fluffy cubs, Ye Lingxi felt that she couldn't get enough of them. As she looked at them, a loving smile like an old mother appeared on her face unconsciously. She reached out and touched the plush cubs gently. My little head, my heart felt like it was struck by lightning, it was so soft~

How could there be such a cute little thing in the world~!

Ye Lingxi sighed from the bottom of his heart.

"Princess, Eunuch An is here."

Lingdang brought Xiao Anzi over. Ye Lingxi originally asked her to find an experienced breeding expert, who brought Xiao Anzi over. Xiao Anzi said that he had raised such a small rabbit before. Ye Lingxi was a little unconvinced at first, but when she saw that Xiao Anzi was handling food and making tools for feeding with ease, she humbly asked him for advice. Xiao Anzi spoke eloquently, which made her feel like "listening to your words is better than raising a rabbit for ten years."

After the four cubs had eaten, they huddled together again to sleep. This time they looked about the size of a palm.

"Princess, there is no need to compare with that Princess An Ning. I think she is not as good as the princess at all." Xiao Anzi said diligently.

Ye Lingxi said sternly: "I'm not competing with her." She muttered again, "You're just taller than me." She reached out and touched her furry little head, and there was nothing to worry about. .

After Xiao Anzi left, Dong Mo came again. He stood at the door of the tent and waited for Bell to come out, then handed the food box he was carrying to Bell.

Ye Lingxi saw the food box in Lingdang's hand and asked casually, "Did the second brother send it?" Lingdang nodded, "The princess didn't eat much just now. His Highness was afraid that the princess would be hungry, so he asked Eunuch Dong to send some snacks. "He then said, "Eunuch Dong is still waiting outside. He has something to say to the princess." Dong Mo was waiting at the door. When he saw Ye Lingxi coming out, he saluted and said hello first, then lowered his voice a little and said, "Your Highness has something to say to this servant. Bring it to the princess." Ye Lingxi said, "You tell me." Dong Mo said, "Your Highness wants to know if the princess still believes in you?" Ye Lingxi was silent for a moment and said, "It doesn't matter whether I believe it or not. What's important is that my father The emperor believes it or not." Dong Mo hesitated for a moment and said, "I want to say something more. In your heart, your highness values ​​the princess more than anyone else. Your highness is concerned about the princess's happiness and anger."

Hearing these words, Ye Lingxi felt a little at a loss. He couldn't walk or stand. In short, he felt very strange.

"Princess, don't take it to heart what my slave said."

"..."

Dong Mo bowed, resigned and left without asking the question of belief or disbelief, as if he got the answer from Ye Lingxi's uneasy reaction.

Ye Lanchen ended his autumn hunting ahead of schedule and set off back to the capital the next day.

In the evening, the queen hosted another banquet in honor of An Ning, the princess of Qi.

Concubine Xiao, Concubine Rong, Concubine Liu and Concubine Lan all attended the banquet.

Ye Yuyao and Ye Lingxi also came together.

An Ning gave the Queen a precious white fox fur, and also prepared valuable gifts for Concubine Xiao, Concubine Rong, Concubine Liu and Concubine Lan. Naturally, the gifts for Ye Yuyao and Ye Lingxi were also indispensable. Such politeness and thoughtfulness made her successful. Won a good impression in front of the Queen.

Concubine Xiao asked insinuatingly why she came alone. An Ning explained that she wanted to share her father's worries. She also mentioned that she had met the two princes Ye Lingjue and Ye Xingye in the paddock yesterday. She then praised them and brought up the topic. Go to the two of them. Concubine Xiao also praised a few words, adding all the advantages that An Ning didn't mention, and deliberately compared Ye Xingye to him.

Concubine Rong said nothing and competed with Concubine Xiao.

After the banquet, Concubine Xiao invited An Ning to her palace for a cup of tea, but An Ning declined on the grounds that "it was getting late and I didn't want to disturb Concubine Xiao's rest."

Here, on the way back with Ye Lingxi, Lan Fei was stopped by a voice behind her.

"Your Majesty, please stay."

A little palace maid hurried over, looking a little rash and said, "Princess, I would like to invite you to come over for a cup of tea."

"What's your name?" Ye Lingxi asked.

The little maid reported her name and errand. She was originally working in the waiter, but today she and three other maids were arranged by Eunuch De to serve An Ning.

"It's too late. The princess must be tired after coming from a long way. Go back and tell the princess to go to bed early. Drinking tea is refreshing. Don't drink tea before going to bed, otherwise you won't be able to sleep." Ye Lingxi said.

The little maid took the order and left.
