No one disturbed her, so Zhen Qingyin slept until three o'clock in the morning and woke up naturally.
She was a little surprised when she didn't see Du Ruo when she opened her eyes for the first time, but she didn't think much about it. She had already said that Du Ruo could rest on his own while she was sleeping.
"Du Ruo!" called out, Zhen Qingyin pushed open the curtain, and her sleepy eyes met a pair of dark smiling eyes.
The prince was holding a book in his hand. He looked back at her and said in a gentle voice, "Are you awake?"
Zhen Qingyin froze, and the confusing scene from yesterday suddenly appeared in front of her eyes. She hurriedly lowered her head and gathered her loose pajamas to cover up the marks on her body. She wanted to bow down to the power of the Prince of the East Palace and bow, but she couldn't bend her knees and her mouth was like It seems like it's sewn shut and can't be opened.
She glanced at the prince lightly, turned around and went to clean the room.
The prince's hand holding the book paused slightly.
Still angry.
He turned his head and turned the page of the book carelessly.
The maids came in with hot water, handkerchiefs and other tools for grooming. Seeing this scene, they passed by silently. Who dares to laugh at the prince, who acts like a tiger with his teeth pulled out as soon as he arrives in front of Miss Zhen, and does not dare to show any temper?
A quarter of an hour later, Zhen Qingyin came out after washing up and saw the figure still sitting motionless in front of her desk. She couldn't help complaining: "Why is the prince still here?"
He became increasingly invisible.
Last time at the Spring Hunting Camp, when she got up to freshen up, he even knew how to hide outside the tent.
Today I can't even avoid it.
Are you really good at climbing up the pole, and automatically upgraded from boyfriend to live-in boyfriend after just one kiss?
"I'm here waiting for you to have breakfast." The prince sat still, as if he took time out of his busy schedule to glance over. Then he lowered his head and continued busy reading, saying in a casual tone, "You are busy with your business, don't be in a hurry."
Zhen Qingyin looked out the window at the rising sun. It was already nine to ten o'clock in the morning, right? He's still waiting for her and hasn't had breakfast?
She stood there for five seconds, unable to avoid pretending to be shy and said: "My lord has not yet combed her hair and changed clothes, but His Highness is looking at me like this, I, I am shy."
After saying that, he covered his face with the wide sleeves of his pajamas as if he was really shy.
Prince: "..."
What are you shy about?
How is she not his?
Yesterday I was just annoyed, I didn't see her being shy.
That's all, she's still angry, let's wait until she calms down. The prince stood up, looked solemn and asked, "Do you often read Buddhist scriptures?"
The book he held in his hand was a Buddhist scripture.
Zhen Qingyin was stunned. She didn't know why he suddenly asked this. She couldn't keep up with her thinking: "My mother worshiped Buddha, so I followed to see."
"Buddhism is prosperous in Dajing, and my father and mother often go to Buddhist temples, but you are not allowed to read it in the future. The Buddhist scriptures in your room must be moved away first." The prince said without refusal.
Zhen Qingyin glanced at the bookshelf and was shocked. Half of the bookshelf Du Ruo had organized earlier was empty, and the other half was filled with Buddhist scriptures.
Is this cutting first and then showing off?
She was secretly angry, frowned and asked, "Why aren't I allowed to see it?"
"When others read Buddhist scriptures, they sincerely worship the Buddha. When you read the Buddhist scriptures, all you think about is loneliness and disrespect for the Buddha, so you are not allowed to read it." The prince took away the last volume of Buddhist scriptures in his hand, turned around and left, leaving behind a sentence , "I'll be waiting for you in the dining room."
When I read Buddhist scriptures in the future, I will remember his words, how he kissed her, and how she meditated. It’s better not to blaspheme Buddha.
Zhen Qingyin instantly understood the meaning behind his words, couldn't help but spit, grabbed a silk flower with glass beads and threw it at the prince.
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Unfortunately, I was weak and missed.
She stared helplessly as the prince's figure disappeared outside the door. Looking back, she saw that all the palace maids lowered their heads and shrugged their shoulders, obviously suppressing laughter.
Zhen Qingyin's cheeks turned red.
Early in the morning, I was so ecstatic about the prince that I became very angry.
Du Ruo covered her lips and smiled. The girl was always lively when she was with the prince.
In the end, the two of them could not have breakfast together because Zhen Qingyin deliberately delayed and waited until almost noon before calling the palace maiden for lunch.
In fact, she had no interest in those scriptures, but she was annoyed that the prince took away her books without her consent.
She seems to have everything going for her, helping her conceal the crime of beheading, but in reality she is domineering, uncompromising, inconsiderate, and disrespectful...
Seeing that her expression was not good, Du Ruo suggested, "Girl, please tell the prince, can we get the books back? Those are the books that girl has collected for several years."
There was a small part of Zhen Qingyin's handwritten manuscripts, and Du Ruo was always afraid of damaging them and making her feel distressed.
"That's all, just take it and take it away." Zhen Qingyin was stunned, and realized that from beginning to end, she had only blamed Wei Ji for cutting off the book first, and never thought of getting the book back.
She is an atheist, and even after experiencing time travel, traveling through books, and traveling through the womb, she is still an atheist.
My grandmother once laughed and said that she was born at noon, so she was full of yang energy. She was not afraid of ghosts or the dark since she was a child. During the summer vacation in elementary school, she went to her grandmother's house to escape the summer heat. She played with her friends and got lost, and even dared to sleep on graves in the wasteland.
Perhaps because of her grandmother's words, she did not have any religious beliefs until she reached adulthood.
She doesn't believe in Buddhism.
Because his mother, the Yin family, worshiped Buddha, he read Buddhist scriptures. The original purpose was just to please the Yin family.
Because she was about to get married, she decided to become a monk in order to escape the fate of a blind marriage. She couldn't even see through herself, so how could she see through the world of mortals.
In her previous life, her mother taught her that it is better to ask for God than to ask for yourself, and to ask for others rather than ask for yourself.
Where are the gods and Buddhas in the world? If you really ask, you will be saved. Why should all living beings struggle? In her previous life, she would not have been killed by random swords.
From beginning to end, the person she begged for was herself, and the enemy she wanted to fight was also herself.
It's just that people can often see through, but they can't achieve what they want in their hearts.
Du Ruoxi took a look at Zhen Qingyin's quiet face and felt something strange in her heart.
She has been serving Zhen Qingyin for some time. The deeper the contact, the more she feels that Zhen Qingyin is different from other young ladies.
Everything is indifferent, nothing matters.
When she was wronged, her mood swings were not very high. For example, when her cousin Meng Rulan bullied her overtly and covertly with the help of the old lady, she was also calm.
She used to serve in Fu Rong Hall, and she witnessed Zhen Qingyun bullying Zhen Qingyin many times, and Zhen Qingyin often changed her face.
On the contrary, after being with His Highness the Crown Prince, Zhen Qingyin became more angry, but much more alive.
Du Ruo thought silently, although His Highness the Crown Prince was a bit domineering, he seemed to be born to defeat girls.
In the dining hall of Yichun Palace, the young eunuch reported that Zhen Qingyin was already having lunch. The prince was silent and ordered Feng Youxi to serve the meal.
From early in the morning when he was hungry until now, he only ate the decoction prescribed by Xie Yuan and used two pieces of snacks, which was a cruel trick. Unfortunately, Zhen Qingyin was hard-hearted and refused to pity him.
If he beheads her first and then takes away her scriptures, the crime will be increased. I am afraid she will be even more angry with him, right?
But if she can be allowed to do anything else, she will never tolerate it if she becomes a monk.
Gods and Buddhas cannot compete with him for people.
The prince thought, how to coax people?
He was a dignified prince, and he had no shame to ask anyone. After lunch, he thought about it and told Feng Youxi: "Get another set of forbidden books about Cranky Little Tomato."
