Chapter 167: Friends
However, no matter how Bai Shuangshuang adjusted his pace, he couldn't open up the distance between him and Li Yuanyi, and after a few times, Bai Shuang also noticed that Li Yuanyi was deliberately trying to get closer to Bai Shuangshuang.
Just as Bai Shuangshuang wondered if Li Yuanyi had something to say to him, he heard Li Yuanyi ask: "Does Miss Bai think that it is a little abrupt for me to suddenly invite you to participate in this chess competition?" ”
Bai Shuangshuang quickly glanced at Li Yuanyi's side face, which was somewhat similar to Li Yuanbo, and scolded in his heart: Of course it is abrupt. But what came out was: "Back to His Highness, the folk girl is just a little flattered." ”
"Would you be so flattered when you interacted with my fifth brother?"
“……”
Bai Shuangshuang's steps paused slightly, and a vigilance rose in his heart.
Sure enough, Li Yuanyi still came for Li Yuanbo, he endured it all day, and only now did he start asking, and he could be regarded as calm.
Li Yuanyi saw Bai Shuangshuang's slightly changing expression, and immediately stopped and explained: "Miss Bai don't need to be nervous, this palace is not here to investigate the relationship between you and my fifth brother, it's just ...... Look at you these days you have been attacked by the know-it-all a little too much, I just want to help you. ”
"Your Highness, do you want to help the people's daughter?"
Seeing Bai Shuangshuang's suspicious face, Li Yuanyi said with a smile: "Originally, this palace was only supposed to be talking nonsense, but after listening to what you said to Baichuan, I thought that when I met you in the Jade Pavilion that day, the flowers and plants in your hands should not be for Baichuan. After a pause, he said: "At that time, the palace briefly suspected that you were going to see the fifth brother that day, but because I thought that the fifth brother was particularly disliked by flowers and plants, and Baichuan would relieve you from the siege, I dispelled the idea." ”
Such words fell on Bai Shuangshuang's ears, but she only grasped the key point: It turns out that Li Yuanbo doesn't like flowers and plants? Then why did he find such a field of phalaenopsis orchids and let her send flowers and plants to his house?
Li Yuanyi said again: "Now that I think about it, I am afraid that your relationship with the fifth brother has already started earlier." This palace remembers that when you rushed into the fire to save your Bai family's ancestral tablet, the fifth brother was also there, right? It should be then that I admire you as a person. ”
“……”
Listening to Li Yuanyi's words, Bai Shuangshuang lowered his head and replied: "If you go back to Your Highness, the people's daughter does have some dealings with the prince of Jue, but it is not as unbearable as everything is said. ”
"Naturally, according to this palace's understanding of the fifth brother and you, I naturally know that the two of you are just gentlemen's friends."
Bai Shuangshuang thought about it for a while, and heard Li Yuanyi say: "It's just that this palace is a little curious, the fifth brother is indifferent by nature and doesn't like to make friends with people, how did you make the fifth brother have the patience to deal with you?" ”
Bai Shuangshuang pulled the corners of his mouth when he heard this, and replied half-truthfully: "Back to His Royal Highness, King Jue said that he thought the folk girl was very interesting. ”
This is indeed like what Li Yuanbo can say, Li Yuanyi smiled when he heard it: "Yes, this palace also thinks you are very interesting." That's why this palace is willing to help you. After saying this, Li Yuanyi raised his feet and continued to walk forward, while saying: "Especially after listening to what you said to Baichuan, this palace thinks that you are different from other women, no wonder, even Wufuzi favors you so much." ”
Li Yuanyi's carriage was already on standby outside Feihong Academy, and Bai Shuangshuang's carriage was on the back seat.
After the two stood outside Feihong Academy, Li Yuanyi lowered his voice to Bai Shuangshuang and said: "The gossip on everything has caused so much trouble to Miss Bai, but the fifth brother did not show up to explain it, Miss Bai must want to know the situation of the fifth brother at this time?" ”
Bai Shuangshuang lowered her eyelids and said indifferently: "The folk girl and the prince of Jue rarely met, I don't know what His Royal Highness is referring to?" ”
Li Yuanyi carefully explored the expression on the face of the white frost, but he couldn't tell whether the white frost was really in good friend with Li Yuanbo, or because he was suspicious of him, he was unwilling to be honest.
But no matter which one it is, Li Yuanyi really appreciates the person of White Frost, just like Tao Fang. Li Yuanyi admires Tao Fang, so no matter how Tao Fang avoids it, he doesn't care, he always thinks that one day he can impress Tao Fang with sincerity.
And now Li Yuanyi appreciates the white frost, and he will try to be more generous to the white frost.
After he pondered for a while, he tried his best not to make it clear, and at least he could say clearly: "Father suggested that the fifth brother cultivate his body at home, so the fifth brother will be in his palace recently, and he will not go out easily." ”
When Bai Shuangshuang heard this, he buried his head even lower: "Thank you for the suggestion from His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
Li Yuanyi saw that Bai Shuangshuang could understand what he said, so he looked at Bai Shuangshuang with admiration and nodded, and walked to the carriage.
But before getting into the carriage, he turned around and said to Bai Shuangshuang, who had sent him off: "If you can, this palace also hopes to have a friend-like relationship with Miss Bai." ”
Bai Shuangshuang was a little stunned, but in the face of Li Yuanyi, who was the crown prince, she couldn't say anything to refuse, so she could only humbly say: "It is the honor of the people's daughter to be appreciated by His Royal Highness." ”
Li Yuanyi saw Bai Shuangshuang's hesitation, but he also knew Bai Shuangshuang's scruples, so he didn't say anything more, turned around and stepped on the horse stool and got into the carriage.
"The people's daughter sends off His Royal Highness the Prince."
After watching the prince leave all the way, Bai Shuangshuang stood up straight and let out a sigh, staring at the surrounding inquiring gaze and carrying Chun Tao into his carriage.
Bai Zhengzhong knew that Bai Shuangshuang went to Feihong Academy to watch the game today because he was invited by Li Yuanyi, so he calculated the time and waited in the flower hall early, and when he saw Bai Shuangshuang coming back, he immediately stepped forward and asked, "Shuangshuang, are you back?" ”
"Yes, Daddy."
"How? Didn't cause trouble to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? ”
It's no wonder that Bai Zhengzhong is so cautious, now Bai Zhengzhong is worried every day in the Hanlin Courtyard, obviously he hasn't done anything, but I'm afraid that someone will suddenly come out and tell him a shocking news.
Bai Shuangshuang walked to Bai Zhengzhong and stood still, and replied in a proper manner: "Everything is fine, Daddy, please rest assured." ”
"Well, that's fine. Did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ask you anything today? ”
Bai Shuangshuang bowed slightly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked me about Prince Jue. ”
"Did you really ask?!" Bai Zhengzhong abruptly stood up from his chair: "How did you answer?" ”
"My daughter told me the truth."
