Initially, none of the four people noticed Tao Yaoyao standing next to them. After all, they all knew that there were more than a dozen beauties in the palace, and they had indeed seen a few of them accidentally.
But they were all standing at the door of the study with various soups, fruits, snacks, etc. They wanted to see the prince, so they didn't care.
It may be that Tao Yaoyao's eyes were so obvious that several people noticed it, but after all, there are differences between men and women. After one glance, she noticed that the other person was a woman and guessed his identity, so she turned her eyes away.
Only Cheng Rui took a few more curious glances, but didn't say anything. The four of them left together.
"Brother, can I go in?"
Tao Yaoyao waited for those people to leave before turning around, thinking that the people inside probably had nothing to do and could go in to meet them! I've been waiting for so long,
"Don't worry! The prince will naturally speak to you if he wants to see you. Just wait here."
The guard at the door answered without turning his eyes and then kept silent, not paying any attention to the person in front of him.
Yao Yaoyao had no choice. He didn't dare to leave directly, nor did he dare to rush in directly. He could only wait on the side in frustration.
After waiting for an hour, fortunately, there was a stone table and four stone piers not far away where you could sit and rest. Tao Yaoyao sat on the stool and waited boredly.
'If I had known earlier, I would have just brought a book and read it! '
Look around and look around at the scenery in the yard, but I have to say that this is indeed the prince's study. Even the doorposts in the corridor outside are carved with all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, as well as some animals and beasts. The colors are extremely bright, and the carved beams and paintings are lifelike. It shows how good the craftsmanship of these masters is. I don’t know what kind of paint it is. It has not faded or deteriorated for thousands of years. It is really magical.
But no matter how beautiful it is, after watching it in this courtyard for more than an hour, I still don’t want to look at it anymore.
"Brother, do you want to go in and remind me? Your Majesty must have forgotten that there is someone waiting outside."
Tao Yaoyao still had the courage to go over and ask. The guard at the door raised his eyebrows and looked at the woman in front of him, and said expressionlessly:
"The prince asked you to wait here. Just wait here. The prince will see you after he is done with his work. Don't say anything."
The last four words could be said to be a warning. Yao Yaoyao had no choice but to sit on the stool and continue waiting.
She has been cursing in her heart for a long time. After all, Chun Xing has served Tao Yaoyao for half a month and probably knows what his temper is. But now she is in front of the prince, and there is only a door between her and the people inside. No matter how distressed she is, Not daring to say anything, I could only try to reduce my presence as much as possible.
Tao Yaoyao was already hungry after waiting. It was noon when she came back and she ate a bowl of wontons outside, but how long could that bowl of wontons last? I didn’t have breakfast, and now I’m even hungrier.
When she came here just now, Chun Xing had repeatedly emphasized that she should not eat any flavorful food before meeting the prince. It was best not to eat it.
So until now, apart from drinking a glass of water before coming, Yao Yaoyao has really not eaten anything. She is just hungry, so she can tolerate it, but now the embarrassing thing is that she wants to go to the toilet.
"Chunxing, can we leave now? I want to go to the toilet."
Tao Yaoyao pulled Chun Xing aside and asked quietly in her ear,
"Uh! There must be a toilet in the prince's study, but you can't use that one! The prince's study slave is here for the first time. I don't know where the toilet is? Would you like me to help you ask?"
"Who are you going to ask? Are these all men?"
If she were in modern times, maybe on the street outside, Tao Yaoyao wouldn't feel that she could ask anything. In this place with strict rules, she really wouldn't dare to ask the guards about such things. Of course, she wouldn't ask Chun Yaoyao. The top of the apricot is in front,
Just when Chun Xing was thinking of a way, Tao Yaoyao's brows and facial features were almost wrinkled.
The prince's personal guard came out of the study, and the sound of the door opening immediately made Tao Yaoyao aware.
Of course Chunxing also noticed it and quickly arranged Tao Yaoyao's hair and clothes. When Tao Yaoyao saw that it was almost done, she quickly stopped her. The master and servant hurried over.
Shizhu came out of the study and was about to go to the housekeeper to ask something, when he was stopped by someone. He frowned and saw that it was an unknown woman.
"Who are you? What's wrong?"
Hearing this question, Tao Yaoyao's face almost turned green, but considering the identity of the other party, she could only put on a professional smile and said politely:
"I am a good man of the Nineteenth who was brought in half a month ago. I just listened to Butler Liu's order to wait here. It has been almost two hours. I don't know what the rules are. I just saw you coming out, so I wanted to ask, if Your Majesty is really busy, I wonder if I can go back?"
Shi Zhu then remembered that of course he knew the identity of the other party, but after hearing this, his brows furrowed even more tightly.
Because this kind of situation has not happened before. It is common for those beauties to even sit at the door of the study for the whole night. No one has ever stopped him to ask these questions.
"You can go back if you want. If the prince wants to see you and you are not here, what kind of punishment will there be? You will suffer it yourself. As for the rest, that's all."
After Shi Zhu finished speaking, he shifted his position and left expressionlessly.
If it weren't for the wrong situation and her own incompetence, Tao Yaoyao would really like to throw her opponent over her shoulder, and then kick her a few times.
"Then the Nineteen Beauties are still waiting here?"
Chun Xing waited until the person left before she dared to speak, but her voice was as low as a kitten meowing.
"What are you waiting for? It's obvious that the prince is doing something. Who knows when he will finish it?"
There's something wrong with me that makes me want to wait here.
Tao Yaoyao cursed in her heart, but the man did not leave, but sat on the stone bench again.
Shi Zhu was so angry that he didn't even want to go to the toilet.
Chun Xing thought she was going back, but after waiting for a long time, someone sat on the stool and refused to leave. She had no choice but to stay behind Tao Yaoyao and not dare to move.
After Chu Xuanhong arranged things in the study, he sat alone at the desk and checked the memorial. As the war king of the Chu Kingdom, he had to check various intelligence sent from the border every day.
Now, the person above is sending a horse-drawn memorial every day just for testing purposes or because he wants to be lazy.
They were all insignificant things, but he couldn't help but look at them. After all, he would check these memorials if he was in a bad position. If he happened to encounter something that he hadn't reviewed, it would only cause trouble.
Of course, I can't push this to others, so I can only waste some time on this every day.
As for meeting Tao Yaoyao, he had long forgotten that he was thousands of miles away.
Time passed like this, and Tao Yaoyao was outside counting the leaves above her head until she felt that no one had fallen. Then she reached out and rubbed her sore neck.
"I counted a total of 896 slices. How long has it been? Doesn't the person inside know he is hungry?"
