The prince is very fierce

The next morning.

The morning reading in Wenquyuan had just ended. Song Yufu returned to the room with a stack of books, looked at the sky, and sighed slightly depressed.

After the last visit to Mrs. Lu, there was still no news about Hairpin. It seemed that Mrs. Lu could not do anything to Prince Xu. Tomorrow is the New Year's Eve, and the Imperial College has been on holiday for a few days. It will be the first month of the new year soon. If dad accidentally asks, how should I explain...

Song Yufu stood there and hesitated for a long time, thinking that she might as well try to apologize to Prince Xu again. If someone makes things difficult for her, she will make things difficult for her. Anyway, it's not the first time. Xu Shizi just talks and doesn't practice, and he doesn't really know how to do anything to her, so there's nothing to be afraid of...

Thinking of this, Song Yufu gave herself a breath, put down her books, and walked towards the Bell and Drum Tower.

The Imperial College occupies a huge area. In addition to the various school buildings, there is also the Confucius' residence at the rear. Imperial students admitted from other places and those from poor families also live here. Song Baiqing was born into a poor family and had a house in the capital. However, after becoming a priest, he lived in the Imperial Academy with no one else around except his daughter.

Song Yufu was walking along the road, and when passing by a courtyard, she suddenly found the door open. I turned my head and glanced. The courtyard was full of peach trees, and there was a painting table in the middle. King Yan Song Yu was sketching something with a brush.

Song Yufu had been in Guozi's prison for a long time, so she was quite familiar with the emperor's younger brother. Since the Emperor of Yan ascended the throne ten years ago, King Song Yu of Yan did not go to Youzhou to join the vassal state, but lived in the courtyard of the Imperial College. Because of his excellent literary talent and character, he has always been praised as a 'contemporary true gentleman'.

Song Yufu often met Song Yu, and she felt that the prince was very kind, much less pretentious than Prince Xu, and no different from other princes, but she didn't know much about the others. Except for giving lectures to students, Song Yu stayed in this courtyard at other times. He had never been out of the Imperial Academy, and he had no maids or concubines around him. He spent all day painting, and could only use two frames of rice paper in one day. The painting Song Yufu has never been seen before.

Song Yufu hesitated at the door. After all, the other party was the vassal king, so he couldn't just go and do some household chores, so he lowered his head and walked over cautiously.

After wandering around, we came to the Bell and Drum Tower, which was empty and empty.

Song Yufu tightened her coat and skirt and walked outside the room below the Bell and Drum Tower. She smiled tenderly and raised her hand to knock on the door.

Dong Dong——

There was no response from the room.

Song Yufu waited for a moment, thinking that Xu Buling was annoying her, she couldn't help feeling a little sad, and said softly:

"Prince Xu?"

…

Still no response.

Song Yufu knew that Xu Buling was under grounding. She went to the palace yesterday and came back last night, so she couldn't spend the night in the palace.

"I'm in."

Song Yufu couldn't wait for a response, so she pursed her lips and felt aggrieved, then raised her hand to push the door open.

The bell and drum towers are just rooms facing the wall, not that there is nothing in them. Xu Buling went out normally without opening the window, so it was naturally impossible to lock the door from the inside. He also didn't believe that someone dared to enter his room without permission, so the door was just closed casually.

Squeak——

Song Yufu entered the room meekly with her head lowered, closed the door again, then turned around and whispered:

"Xu Shizi, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have boiled you with porridge... But you are also wrong. How can you let your daughter's family feed you? It is unbecoming of a gentleman to bully the weak..."

He muttered and talked for a long time.

Seeing no response, Song Yufu raised her head and glanced.

A table, a plank bed, a chair, but no one.

"Huh?..."

Song Yufu was stunned for a moment, and after a moment of reaction, she felt panicked.

Sneaking into someone else's house is a trivial act.

Song Yufu quickly turned around and prepared to run out, but when she closed the door, she felt something was wrong. She came in thinking Xu Bu Ling was ignoring her in the house, and those who didn't know were not guilty. Moreover, the Bell and Drum Tower is a public place, not Xu Buling’s home. Anyone can come over in broad daylight, just like entering the school building. She is still half a wife...

Thinking of this, Song Yufu felt a little more relaxed, and then thought of the hairpin that she had longed for.

Prince Xu, will you put the hairpin in the house...

Song Yufu couldn't help but get entangled when she thought about this. It's unreasonable to sneak into the room. If you rummage through other people's things... No, the hairpin was hers. It was Prince Xu who took it away by force. She has no choice but to take it back secretly...

After making excuses for herself for a long time, Song Yufu finally took a look at the table and found only pen, ink, paper and inkstone, so she walked to the bed and took a look.

The bedding was folded into tofu blocks, the sheets were not wrinkled, and they were almost spotless.

"I really love being clean..."

There was some appreciation in Song Yufu's eyes, but it was impossible to hide anything in the scene before her. She hesitated, then knelt down, ready to look under the bed.

Unexpectedly, just as I squatted down, I heard footsteps coming from outside and voices of conversation:

"Little prince, how is the matter?"

"It's a mess. Let's talk about it after the new year... How is Zhu Manzhi doing? Didn't he cause any trouble?"

"The young prince should still worry about himself. He stayed out all night. With Mrs. Lu's temperament, this year may not be easy..."

"Oh...just get used to it..."

The voices of Xu Buling and Lao Xiao.

Song Yufu was shocked and immediately panicked. If Xu Buling opened the door and found her there, he would not be able to escape even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

The sound gradually approached, Song Yufu's mind went blank, and she looked around in panic. The room was empty, without even a cabinet, and there was nowhere to hide. Without thinking, she lay on the ground and rolled under the bed, pulled the hem of her skirt in, and covered her mouth tightly with her hands.

Tap tap -

The footsteps passed by the window, and then the door opened and closed.

Song Yufu's heart trembled, and even her breathing was almost stagnant. She lay motionless, her head resting on something, looking sideways at a pair of boots walking into the room, swaying in front of her eyes, and finally the bed board sank slightly and sat in front of her.

"..."

Song Yufu was almost crying in a hurry, and she dared not move, just feeling that every moment was torture. She silently chanted in her heart: Get out quickly, get out quickly...

Just thinking of Xu Buling's house arrest, Song Yufu felt a little desperate. With Xu Buling's dull and cold personality, it would not be surprising for him to stay in the room for ten days or half a month. Wouldn't she be discovered sooner or later...

No!

Dusk!

Song Yufu remembered that the students in solitary confinement had to ring the morning bell and evening drum every day. As long as they could make it to dusk, when Xu Buling went up to the bell and drum tower, they could run out.

Thinking of this, Song Yufu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. All she had to do next was stay still.

Looking at the boots in front of her, Song Yufu suddenly felt a little moved. She was a little curious about what Master Xu did when he was alone in the room.

Xu Buling would not talk to himself when he was alone in the room as long as his brain was not wrong, but he could not help moving.

Song Yufu waited for a while, and then saw Xu Buling put his legs up, but he did not lie down. He should be sitting cross-legged to regulate his breath and practice.

Okay...

Song Yufu blinked, and immediately lost interest. She lay there stupidly and waited quietly.

Unfortunately, good fortune never comes alone, and misfortune never comes alone.

After waiting for only half a minute, another round of conversation came from outside:

"Hey~ Madam Lu, why are you here? If you want to see the young prince, just ask the servants to call him..."

"Where is the prince?"

"In the house."

...

Song Yufu was stunned for a moment, and for some reason the words "catching an adulterer" popped up in her mind...

Oh no!
