Chapter 18: Eating Secretly
Xia Zhiqiu was punished and grounded for two days for poor teaching, but reluctantly accepted the punishment and retired.
Xia Zhixue was still kneeling in the courtyard, and Xia Zhiqiu passed by her without squinting.
The summer night sky is surprisingly quiet, the moon is white in the sky, and the lotus flowers in the pond are very strange. From time to time, there were three or two frog chirpings in the pond, and Xia Zhixue, who screamed, had goosebumps all over her body.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa! What is it called! Ouyang Huaiyu went to eat, and her mother-in-law brought her food, and she scolded her. Now her stomach was rumbling, and she regretted her anger even more.
Ouyang Huaiyu has never stepped into the courtyard since the beginning of time, and I don't know if she deliberately left her alone to think about it.
As soon as he thought so, he heard a sound of trembling footsteps.
Xia Zhixue was shocked: "Who?" This black light is blinding, isn't it a thief? The moment the words came out, one hand plucked an emerald silver hairpin from his head and held it tightly in his hand.
She thought to herself: If the thief did something to herself, she would die with her will.
"What to do? Still want to assassinate this king? The moment he raised his hand sideways, his wrist was grabbed, and a familiar male voice came from overhead.
Xia Zhixue was shocked at the same time, and her heart was also put back in her stomach: "It's okay, it's okay."
The other hand patted his chest, and suddenly his eyebrows rose: "Why does the prince walk like this...... So ......"
After thinking about it for a long time, I didn't come up with suitable words, so I simply shut up and stopped talking.
Ouyang Huaiyu raised his eyebrows: "In this way, is it still the king's?" Do you want to apologize? ”
Xia Zhixue hated his confusion today, and he didn't want to say anything with a cold face.
Seeing her unconvinced look, Ouyang Huaiyu felt more and more interesting: "Could it be that this king has really wronged you?"
Xia Zhixue thought to herself: She knew that this man was so smart, how could he not find that Xia Zhiqiu's every sentence was a loophole? He is just a scapegoat, a pawn between the two of them.
The more I thought about it, the more angry I became, and even the eyes that looked at Ouyang Huaiyu were full of hatred.
Ouyang Huaiyu's fingers bent slightly, and he came to Xia Zhixue's head: "I know that you hold a grudge against me because of this, but I have no regrets." Your sister was born proud, and she poured dirty water on you, and you are the only one who can do this in the eyes of outsiders, and only the people close to you know about it, and I don't know what poison I have. If she is the one who will be punished today, it will be found in your house," he paused, and then said, "According to your sister's temperament, I am sure that you are the culprit."
"It's all your rhetoric," Xia Zhixue snorted coldly: "You're just afraid that outsiders will say that your future princess is not pure-minded, and the city government is very deep, and you're afraid that others will say that you are stupid."
"Xia Zhixue! Can't I talk to you well, right? Do you have to talk back? Ouyang Huaiyu didn't expect that he would explain to her sincerely, and he would summon such a reputation, and his tone was not as gentle as Fang Cai for a while: "Since this is the case, then you can kneel for me."
"Kneel and kneel." Xia Zhixue has a hard mouth.
As soon as she wanted to be tough, her stomach betrayed her first.
Ouyang Huaiyu and her two stared at each other, and in the end, he couldn't help it first, and laughed out loud.
"Tell me, which lady is as beautiful as you?" Ouyang Huaiyu shook his head, as if he was helpless: "You, you."
Even he didn't notice the doting in this sentence.
Xia Zhixue was knocked into a shameful matter, and her face turned red: "If the prince is fine, please go back."
Ouyang Huaiyu looked at Xia Zhixue's ashamed expression, and a smile crept into his eyes: "Get up, today's punishment is here, remember next time, stay away from your sister."
After getting the pardon, Xia Zhixue immediately wanted to stand up.
But who knows, because she has been kneeling for too long, she has been pampered all year round, and her knees have long been sore, and she has not stood firmly, and her body is staggering to the side.
Before the exclamation in his mouth could be shouted, he fell into a warm chest, raised his eyes, and bumped into a pair of smiling eyes: "Isn't the third lady really interested in me?" And that's where the hugs begin? ”
Xia Zhixue was angry and ashamed: "The prince is too worried, I am not interested in what my sister likes."
"Really?" Ouyang Huaiyu didn't let go, so he kept this posture, and his handsome face was lowered: "I look at the third sister, but I am nervous."
Lecher! Lecher! What a bullshit prince! Which prince would be as ignorant of inspection and ignorance as he is? Fortunately, the person he asked to marry was Xia Zhiqiu, if it was himself, I am afraid that after getting married, he would just want to settle the backyard.
"Lord Wang!" Raise your voice: "Hope for self-respect."
"Or else?" Ouyang Huaiyu touched his nose, let go of the person, and said: "I asked the emperor for a decree, discussed with your father, and married the daughter of the Hou Mansion, I want to come to Tang Tang as a prince, and marrying the daughter of the Hou Mansion is not all high-level marriage."
"Ridiculous!" Xia Zhixue was frightened by his rebellious words and took a step back: "I...... If I marry a farmer and a poor scholar, I won't marry you! You're going to die of this heart. ”
Why is this man so scoundrel? She didn't know before, bypassing his body, Xia Zhixue wanted to leave.
Ouyang Huaiyu grabbed her wrist: "It's so dark, we've already eaten, where do you go to find food like this?"
"I ...... I, "Xia Zhixue is hesitant. She only wanted to stay away from him, and forgot that she hadn't eaten for a day.
"Let's go, I'll take you to eat the delicacies of the mountains and seas." Ouyang Huaiyu pulled her and walked straight to the small kitchen despite her struggles.
"Lord, this is not in accordance with the rules." Xia Zhixue wanted to pull her wrist out of his hand, but the disparity between the strength of men and women was huge.
Ouyang Huaiyu turned his head and put his index finger in front of his lips: "Shhh, don't wake everyone up, I'm a dignified prince, doing such things like stealing chickens and touching dogs, spread it out, where is my face gone?"
Hearing this, Xia Zhixue couldn't help laughing. I never thought that he also had such a funny time. She only regarded us as an invincible prince, and only stole all the left and right ways from the side.
"What are you laughing at?" Ouyang Huaiyu asked.
With a straight look, Xia Zhixue shook his head.
The two lowered their bodies and entered through the side door of the small kitchen, this place was a private chef that Ouyang Huaiyu found from a famous restaurant in the capital, and only prepared meals for him.
"Where is this?" Xia Zhixue unconsciously lowered her voice.
Ouyang Huaiyu replied: "Don't care where this is, you just know that it can fill your stomach."
She closed her mouth playfully and followed in his footsteps.
He took out a steamed bun from the darkness and handed it to the person behind him: "Take it first, there should be something next to it, wait for me to take a look."
Xia Zhixue took the steamed bun and held it in her arms.
thought to herself: She would follow the prince to do such a ridiculous thing that she had never thought of, although it was indecent, she couldn't care so much now.
"That's enough, one bun is enough." Afraid that the next person would hear the joke, Xia Zhixue gently tugged on the hem of Ouyang Huaiyu's clothes.
