If I want to run away from the outer chamber, I will criticize the prince madly and take me into the

Chapter 6 He doesn’t need her pretentiousness

Cui Ying blinked, but knelt down without saying anything. The rain in Yunzhou had just stopped in the past few days, and the ground was still wet. As she knelt there, the servants and maids around her all looked at her. .

She knew that getting Chu Yan to accept her would take more than a moment of success, but she didn't expect that this man would be so heartless.

He didn't care about anything, he didn't care about anything.

It was as if nothing in the world could make him stop for this.

"When will His Highness forgive you, can you get up? Please stay safe, girl, and don't make His Highness unhappy again."

After Mother Kong said this, she stood under the eaves. There was no emotion in her eyes, and she looked like a stranger.

Cui Ying knelt straight, but her slender back stood upright like a pine tree without bowing her head. Dongyue, who was standing on one side, wanted to step forward, but Cui Ying shook her head lightly and stopped her steps.

The open door in front of her allowed her to see clearly. He didn't touch the dishes she cooked on the table until the steaming soup gradually cooled down.

The drizzle of rain also fell at this time. After a while, the drizzle turned faster and fell on Cui Ying's body, but no one in the room asked her to get up, and no one dared to step forward to hold an umbrella for her to protect her from the rain.

The door was closed, and she looked at the lights and candles in the room. The rain wet her body, fell down her cheeks, and then merged with the rain on the ground.

"girl."

Dongyue held up her umbrella and shouted. Aunt Kong glanced at her from the corner of her eye. Cui Ying didn't speak and still shook her head.

Chu Yan wanted to punish her, not because she made the meal on her own initiative, but because she invaded his territory.

Here, no one dared to approach him. Everything was done step by step, and she broke this step by step, so this was the source of her punishment.

But Cui Ying didn't regret it. She didn't want to be just a vase that he brought back to hide from others.

That's not her purpose.

The candlelight in the room was half dim. Chu Yan sat on a chair and looked at the letter in his hand. Cheng Chong stood aside. The rain outside the window hit the window. He closed the letter and turned his head to look at it.

"Take her with you tomorrow and go to the Stone Gambling Banquet together."

Yunzhou is a famous jade city in Dashuo. Stone gambling is also a local way to get rich overnight.

The man held his head with one hand, looked at Cui Ying through the blurry rain curtain and said something.

"I'm going to make arrangements."

Cheng Chong was taciturn and stepped aside after finishing speaking.

The pain in his leg came again, and he closed his eyes and frowned to let him back down.

"Girl, His Highness wants you to go back."

Cheng Chong came out, said something and left.

Cui Ying thought she was going to kneel in the yard all night, but she didn't expect him to let her get up.

Hearing this, Dongyue hurriedly stepped forward to hold an umbrella and helped her up. The skin and flesh on her body were carefully cultivated. After kneeling for two hours, one can already imagine the bruises on her legs.

Grandma Kong watched this scene without saying anything. Cui Ying bowed to the closed door before going back.

Dongyue supported her distressedly, and after returning to her yard, she rummaged for medicine. When she lifted Cui Ying's skirt and saw the bruise, she cried first.

"The girl has never suffered such an injury."

Although she knew why Cui Yunliang raised the girl, she had never been punished like this in the seven years she had been in the prefect's mansion.

"Don't say this kind of thing again in the future. Be careful that walls have ears."

Cui Ying only said one sentence, then took the ointment from Dongyue's hand and rubbed it herself. The cold ointment took away some of the burning pain, but she didn't say anything more. She needs to be careful now.

It's better to think about how to make Chu Yan accept her.

At night, Chu Yan was lying on the bed, the rain pattered outside the house, and he frowned.

Not knowing what he was dreaming about, the man took a breath and opened his eyes. What he saw was the tent above his head, with a silver sachet in the shape of a gilt hollow flower and bird ball hanging from it, burning incense to soothe the mind and help him sleep.

The aroma had not yet dissipated, but it did not make him feel sleepy at all.

In the five years since he returned to Dashuo, those experiences in Dongyi Kingdom seemed to be haunting him as if they could not be erased.

But in the past few days, it seemed that with her by his side, he rarely got a good night's sleep.

I don’t know what kind of incense it is, but it’s sweet but not disgusting.

The next morning, as soon as Chu Yan got up, he heard Grandma Kong's voice coming from outside. He hummed and let her in.

Aunt Kong walked in with something in her hand and saluted him: "I have seen your highness."

"What's the matter?"

He sat on the bedside and couldn't see clearly what was in her hand through the gauze, but he smelled the smell of herbs.

"Miss Cui came to Qinghuiyuan early in the morning. She said that the climate in Yunzhou is humid, with more rain and less sunshine. His Highness may not be able to adapt to it, so he sent these Yueju pills and knee pads."

Aunt Kong originally thought that after what happened yesterday, she would be sad for at least a while, but she didn't expect that this morning she would come as early as usual.

Thinking of her limping in and speaking in a gentle tone, Grandma Kong felt a little distressed, but she knew who her master was.

Hearing this, the man just raised his eyebrows and glanced slightly, and then asked her to take the things away.

He didn't need this, nor did she need to prepare this on her own initiative.

Aunt Kong felt a little pity, but she responded with a natural expression and was about to leave. It wasn't until she reached the door that she heard Chu Yan's words: "Leave the things behind and tell her that there is a banquet to go to tonight."

Cui Ying has been in the house for a long time, but no one from Cui Yunliang came to see her once. Whether it was for his son's future or for other purposes, it was a bit abnormal for him to be so quiet.

In this case, it's better to let him see what he wants to do.

She is the best cover. Only if he dotes on her more will Cui Yunliang relax his vigilance.

Grandma Kong chuckled, put down her things, walked out, turned and entered Cui Ying's yard.

After what happened yesterday, His Highness ordered her not to enter Qinghui Courtyard again, so she could only stay here.

Cui Ying was fine. He didn't want to see her these days, so she could rest for a few days and think of countermeasures. Unfortunately, she saw Grandma Kong walking in just as she was about to have breakfast.

"Why are you here? But what are your orders?"

She stood up very politely. Aunt Kong walked in and gave her a slight salute before saying, "His Royal Highness said there is a banquet today and he wants the girl to accompany him."

Aunt Kong had a smile on her face and her eyes were full of satisfaction. As long as His Highness receives Cui Ying into his room, there will be no shortage of beauties in the East Palace in the future, and Your Majesty will no longer worry about whether Da Shuo's empire will be cut off.

As the first person, Miss Cui's status is naturally not low, so she had the gift just now.

"I understand, thank you mama."

Cui Ying signaled Dongyue to come forward and gave Grandma Kong a bag of silver. These were given by Cui Yunliang. Her adoptive father was never stingy when it came to money, food and clothing.
