Even the prince didn't notice that after being together for a day, his mood towards Zaizai changed a lot, and he was even jealous of Zaizai calling someone else's brother!
He thought hard, wondering why Zaizai was unhappy.
However, he couldn't guess it until class ended in the afternoon.
After returning from the martial arts field, the little Zaizai was a little tanned again. Because he was so preoccupied all day long, he even forgot to apply ointment. ?.?????.???
A white, soft and cute little face was covered with chapped skin, and the little Zaizai couldn't help but scratch it, leaving red marks.
The prince was the first to see it. He reservedly began to practice how to pretend to discover it as if nothing had happened, and then help her apply ointment naturally. However, while his plan was still being rehearsed in his mind, he saw Yan Yue greet her enthusiastically. , "My dear, your face is almost bleeding from being scratched. Please wipe this. My brother will help you wipe it."
Yan Yue had some ointment for treating burns, and he hurriedly took it out to rub on the little Zaizai, but the little Zaizai twisted his face and said, "No need."
"Thank you, brother."
Although he was rejected, he was sweetly called brother by Zaizai. Although Yan Yue felt regretful, he was still happy.
"Then I'll take you back to Changchun Palace! Don't worry, I know the rules of the palace. Just don't go in."
"...Thank you, brother," Xiao Zaizai thanked him seriously, then decisively shook his head and refused, "But no, no need."
"Go and wait for your brother." Xiao Zaizai hugged his small schoolbag and with a little face that made people feel distressed at first glance. He hurriedly left the classroom. After handing the little princess to the eldest palace maid, he sat alone. On the threshold of Taixue Hall, she huddled up in a small ball and began to wait seriously for Jiang Muhan to pick her up from school.
The prince, who had been wondering all day, was suddenly enlightened!
The little thing has been unhappy all day. It turns out it's because he misses Jiang Muhan? ?
Prince:………………
The prince looked at the round little figure on the threshold sourly, feeling particularly unhappy.
The eldest palace maid came over and urged, "My dear daughter, Governor Jiang is very busy and may not come recently."
"This is the cake he asked someone to bring you."
The eldest maid showed her the cold milk-flavored cakes. Xiao Zaizai looked at them, and tears fell down as soon as she blinked.
"Don't cry, little daughter. Governor Jiang is really busy recently. Little daughter should be more sensible."
sensible?
The little Zaizai shed tears sadly, pursed her lips, and looked at the milk-flavored cake aggrievedly for a while before saying, "...Okay, be good and sensible."
After saying that, she stood up, wiping her tears, and was led by the palace maid to Changchun Palace, while looking back at the direction where Jiang Muhan usually appeared.
It's been two days, and my good-looking brother hasn't come.
The third day, the fourth day, the fifth day...
Jiang Muhan never appeared again for several days.
Apart from all kinds of delicious, practical, wearable and fun things delivered on time, Jiang Muhan was nowhere to be seen.
Xiao Zaizai's mood dropped visibly.
Even in class, he would suddenly rub his eyes with his little hands and look out the window with tears in his eyes.
Yan Yue tried his best but failed to make her happy.
"Hmph!" The prince said angrily, "You're a worthless guy, don't you just want to see Jiang Muhan? I'll just declare him into the palace for you to see!"
The prince, who had been silent for several days, exploded. He immediately took off his jade pendant and handed it to his trusted guards. He said very domineeringly, "Go and ask Jiang Muhan to come to Taixue Palace. I want to see him!"
He said it loudly on purpose, for fear that Zaizai would miss a word.
Sure enough, the melancholy little Zaizai who was lying on the desk immediately pricked up her little ears, like a kitten that heard the footsteps of its master, and sat up straight, with red eyes, and began to wait for her good-looking brother.
One eye, two eyes, three eyes...
After waiting eagerly for half an hour, the prince's trusted guard came back and said with a troubled face, "Back to your highness, Governor Jiang... is here..."
"Guo Guo!" The little Zai Zai, who was as wilted as a little flower that hadn't been watered for several days in the hot summer, immediately stood up and ran out regardless of the student's instructions.
In the hot summer, Jiang Muhan wore a silver fox fur trimmed cloak on top of his old black crane suit.
Jiang Muhan's beautiful face was sunk in the fluffy collar, looking extremely pale and fragile.
Like a delicate thin glass crystal, it is about to break.
"Guo Guo?" Xiao Zaizai hurriedly ran to Jiang Muhan and asked with red eyes, "Guo Guo, are you sick?"
"Well, it's the same old habit," Jiang Muhan stretched out his hand from under the thick silver velvet of the cloak and held her little hand, with a smile in his fox eyes, "I heard that you miss your brother very much?"
The scorching sun was shining brightly, and she was wearing a thick silver fox cloak, but the hands holding her were as cold as winter frost and snow.
The little Zaizai shivered coldly, knowing in his heart that his brother's strange illness had recurred.
This time she must have made a serious mistake, that's why her brother made a mistake and didn't come to pick her up from school for several days.
My brother is just sick, it’s not that he doesn’t want her anymore.
