Chapter 176: Bet

Xuan Courtyard.

Wanru has been staying in Xuan Courtyard for twenty days since she got sick, and before she knew it, time had passed so quickly.

She doesn't know when she will be able to return home, although the epidemic outside is temporarily under control, but the current situation still cannot be ignored.

After all, he pretended to have a disease that would contag people in order to hide it from everyone and escape the holy order to enter the palace.

Changping Jun's methods are very powerful, and once he doesn't handle it well, he will implicate his father. So Wanru didn't dare to act rashly.

And here, she has nothing to do except practice calligraphy and reading books every day. Of course, for more than ten days, His Highness has never come to see her.

Today, Wanru got up early. Standing on the outer cloister, feeding the koi in the pond.

Watching the fish swim around, the mood is also happy with the fish.

"Wanru sister!" A call was heard.

This voice is the most familiar, the crown princess's voice is very special, and her voice is loud.

"Mother." Wanru saw that the crown princess was running over.

I don't know if there is any urgency, she is in such a hurry.

"What's so flustered?" Wanru looked at the crown princess, panting.

Yue'er ran to the corridor, stopped, and said with a smile, "It's okay, it's okay." It's just that I want to lose weight, so I get up in the morning and go for a run, and by the way, I can also exercise my body. ”

Hehe......

Yue'er can smile so happily at any time, as if there are no words of trouble and sorrow in her life.

"Let's wipe it." Wanru handed a handkerchief to Yue'er, seeing that she was sweating profusely, like this, what kind of thing does she look like the crown princess?

Yue'er looked at the silk handkerchief, the embroidery pattern on it was very beautiful, and she could smell a faint fragrance of osmanthus in her hand, and for a while, she felt a little hungry.

Hehe......

For a would-be foodie, it's no surprise that looking at a handkerchief can cause hunger.

"Thank you!" Yue'er said while wiping her face.

"This handkerchief is so fragrant, this seems to be the fragrance of osmanthus?" Yue'er asked.

Because last time, I ate osmanthus cake at the Prince's Mansion, and Yue'er still remembers the fragrance very clearly.

"Lady likes this scent?" Wanru asked Yue'er.

"Oh, what fragrance do I like, I like to eat osmanthus cakes, because His Royal Highness likes to eat osmanthus scented cakes, so I often eat them, and I remember this taste."

"Well, His Royal Highness said that eating osmanthus cake will remind him of his mother." Wanru still remembers what the prince said when he first came to Xiangguo's mansion.

"Huh? You seem to know Your Highness very well. Yue'er asked curiously.

In fact, Yue'er knows better than anyone else that Wanru likes His Royal Highness the Prince, but she didn't say it explicitly.

"No, just talk about it occasionally." Wanru pretended not to care about any of this.

"Let's go, it's cold here, let's go inside." As soon as Yue'er finished speaking, she took Wanru's hand and left.

Yue'er asked Wanru how she was doing here alone, and there was no one to talk to. Wanru said that she could only read books and practice calligraphy. Yue'er admires it very much, if she is allowed to practice calligraphy, she will not be killed.

In the library, there is still paper that was as graceful as practicing calligraphy yesterday, covering the entire desk. Yue'er picked it up and looked at it, and admired it very much.

Although Yue'er doesn't know how to appreciate calligraphy and paintings, it seems that she knows that these words are beautifully written.

"No wonder Your Highness likes you." Yue'er said while looking at these calligraphy and paintings.

Wanru was very nervous when she heard it, and explained continuously: "Niangniang, don't talk nonsense, there is nothing to do." ”

Yue'er saw that Wanru was so nervous, she felt a sense of joy in her heart, it seemed that she was right, otherwise Wanru would not be so nervous.

"I can see it, Sister Wanru originally liked His Royal Highness." Yue'er said it so boldly, every time she thought about something, she always said it so unabashedly.

"Niangniang, I'm ......" Wanru was about to explain, but Yue'er interrupted her.

"Actually, you don't have to think about me, because although I am the crown princess, I don't like His Royal Highness." Yue'er said this, Wanru didn't understand the meaning of it.

Although in ancient times, it was normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, but after all, she was the crown princess, and it was said that women were the most jealous, but how could this princess say this?

Wanru was even more frightened in her heart, could it be that the crown princess saw her thoughts, and said this to warn her.

"Niangniang is the crown princess, this is a fact, and no one can change it." Wanru said.

"But I don't want to be the crown princess." Yue'er continued.

"Niangniang, what do you mean by this?" Wanru was stunned by what Yue'er said.

Yue'er thinks that Sister Wanru is a kind and upright person, and she will never betray herself, just like Lingxi. So Yue'er wanted to tell Wanru the secret, so that she could be regarded as doing a good deed.

Yue'er approached Wanru's side, leaned on her ear and said softly: "Actually, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and I are a fake couple, we are only in a contractual relationship, and when His Royal Highness becomes the king, he can return my freedom." ”

Wanru was shocked after hearing this, this thing is simply incredible?

"I don't believe it." Wanru felt a little incredulous.

"There's something unbelievable about that. No matter how you say it, you can be regarded as the first talented woman in Fancheng, how can you meet Your Highness, and your IQ will become zero. Yue'er said.

Wanru sat on the edge of the desk, looking at Yue'er, she felt that although the crown princess liked to mess around on weekdays, her expression when she spoke at the moment was very serious.

"So it's true?" Wanru asked rhetorically.

Yue'er nodded seriously.

Wanru has really never heard of such a thing, this crown princess is really special.

"Your Highness has a strategy, is proficient in a hundred schools, strategizes, is full of economy, and is a humble gentleman, why doesn't Niangniang like Your Highness?" Wanru asked curiously.

When Yue'er heard her say this, she seemed to feel that these words didn't match Qin Yu very well: "How can Your Highness have so many advantages?" ”

Yue'er looked at Wanru with wide eyes, thinking that she not only liked His Highness, but also admired him very much.

"Alas, if you don't understand, in my heart, I can't tolerate a man with three wives and four concubines. The love for me must be the only one. ”

Yue'er held her chin with her hand, and said while thinking: "But His Royal Highness can't do it, he is destined to be the king of the world in the future, and he is destined to have three thousand harems, so I won't like such a person." ”

"Isn't it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines? My father has many concubines besides my mother. Wanru replied.

"So, is your mother very tired and jealous all day long in the house?" Yue'er often speaks without thinking.

"My mother died when I was very young. I don't even know what my mother looks like. Wanru really wanted to have her mother by her side, but not long after she was born, her mother had already passed away.

In the house, from childhood to adulthood, her affairs were arranged by her father and brother.

"Ah, I'm sorry to talk about your sadness." Yue'er was embarrassed.

"It's okay, you don't know." Wanru looked at her with a smile.

Yue'er sat beside Wanru and said with a smile, "Has Your Highness confessed to you?" ”

"What? Vindicate? Wanru was puzzled.

"I just asked, has Your Highness confessed his heart to you?" Yue'er is in charge of a lot of things.

Wanru shook her head.

Hey? Impossible? Yue'er still can't figure it out.

"Oh, I know, Your Highness must have deliberately not said it, in fact, he cares about you very much in his heart." Yue'er can still feel this, women, their minds are always more delicate.

"Your Highness doesn't care about me, he hasn't been here for more than ten days." Wanru said very plainly, but there was a sense of loss in her heart.

"Oh, you don't know, in fact, His Highness came here very late every night, I know he came to see you, and every time he comes to see you very late." Yue'er said with a smile, as if she had seen through this layer, she had a sense of accomplishment.

When Wanru heard Yue'er say this, she suddenly felt an inexplicable joy in her heart. At this time, she remembered what His Highness had said before: I'm sorry...... If I lose in this power struggle, forget about me!

Wan understood why His Royal Highness avoided her, it turned out that he was worried that once he failed in the future, he would not be able to give her happiness, so he simply did not come to see her.

"If you don't believe me, I'll try it tomorrow, and I'll know if I try." Yue'er loves to make trouble.

"What are you thinking?" Wanru really admires her, and she wants to figure out everything.

"Tomorrow I will lie to Your Highness, saying that your illness is not cured, but serious, I will see if he will come to see you. How about we bet? Yue'er smiled happily.

"This is not good, the means of deceiving people are not gentlemen." Wanru didn't approve of Yue'er's nonsense.

"What are you worried about? The person who deceived him was me, not you, and it has nothing to do with you. "For Yue'er, teasing His Royal Highness is commonplace.

"Niangniang, don't deceive Your Highness."

Yue'er didn't seem to be very happy when she looked at Wanru, so she didn't dare to say any more. After all, Wanru's illness is just right, if this is not done well, and the old illness recurs, then His Royal Highness will not blame her.

Wanru still cares about His Highness's feelings very much, otherwise she wouldn't have stopped Yue'er from doing this.
