Chapter 75: Entering the Palace
When Bai Mingyue returned to the Great Prince's Mansion, it was already afternoon. She hadn't eaten lunch yet, so as soon as she came back, she went directly to the study to find Long Mu.
But she didn't find Long Mu, but when she returned to the courtyard, she met Li Xing, who had nothing to do.
"Li Xing, what are you doing here? What about the Great Prince? Bai Mingyue asked.
"The prince has entered the palace." Seeing Bai Mingyue come back, Li Xing breathed a sigh of relief. Said respectfully.
"Into the palace? Then why don't you go? Bai Mingyue asked.
"The prince asked his subordinates to stay in the mansion and follow Miss Bai's instructions." Li Xing stood up in a proper manner and said.
Bai Mingyue nodded, and was about to say something. But she suddenly felt that something was not quite right. Today's Li Xing seems to be a little abnormal.
She came to Li Xing's side and looked at him with a straight gaze. "Li Xing, what's wrong with you?"
Facing Bai Mingyue's gaze, Li Xing was very worried. But he still stood steadily, not daring to move.
"Are you sick? How do you feel weird. The more Bai Mingyue looked at Li Xing, the more she felt abnormal, and she couldn't help but worry a little about him.
"Miss Bai, your subordinates are fine. You must be very tired when you just returned home! Let's go back and rest! Li Xing said.
Seeing that Li Xing kept emphasizing that he was fine, Bai Mingyue was relieved. She touched her stomach and said, "No need to rest." I'm hungry and want to eat. ”
Hearing this, Li Xing looked at the sky. Is this going for lunch or dinner?
But he didn't dare to let Bai Mingyue go hungry. said: "Miss Bai, wait a minute, my subordinates will arrange it." ”
With that, Li Xing retreated.
Looking at such an abnormal Li Xing, Bai Mingyue was really not used to it. It's just that she didn't think much about it, at the moment she just wanted to eat.
Bai Mingyue thought that Li Xing would let her go to the dining room to eat if she asked her to prepare a meal, but she went back to the room and waited for a while, only to see people coming in with food.
The servants quickly prepared their meals, and then they all withdrew. Li Xing came to Bai Mingyue's side and reminded, "Miss Bai, it's time to eat." ”
Bai Mingyue: "......"
She finally knew what the problem was. Today's Li Xing's attitude towards her is very respectful, and even the matter of eating is so formal.
"Li Xing, is someone threatening you? I'm not used to you being so nice to me all of a sudden! ”
Li Xing: "......"
In fact, he didn't want to please Bai Mingyue, but thinking that she was likely to become his master in the future, he could only please her as much as possible. lest she be justified in reprimanding him in the future.
"Miss Bai, your subordinates have always been very good to you!" Li Xing said with some grievances.
Maybe he didn't have a very friendly attitude towards her before, but he didn't do anything to hurt her, right? Why did Miss Bai say this as if he had treated her very badly before?
Seeing that Li Xing was still wronged, the corners of Bai Mingyue's mouth twitched.
Ignore him no more. She touched her hungry belly, got up and pulled Li Xing to the table. said, "Sit down! Eat with me. ”
"Huh?" Li Xing was so frightened that he took a step back.
Seeing Li Xing's reaction so big, Bai Mingyue raised her eyebrows. "What's your reaction?"
"Miss Bai, your subordinates are not hungry, you can eat by yourself!" Li Xing hurriedly said.
"Don't eat it. Then you watch me eat. Bai Mingyue didn't care, and sat down to eat by herself as she spoke.
Li Xing wanted to retreat, but Bai Mingyue asked him to look at her, and he didn't know whether to retreat for a while.
"Li Xing, did your prince go to the palace early this morning?" It seemed that something was in mind, Bai Mingyue asked.
"Hmm... Pretty much yes. ”
"Then why haven't you come back now? Is there something going on in the palace? Bai Mingyue asked with some curiosity.
Since she came to the Great Prince's Mansion, she had never seen Long Mu busy for anything. Now I have been in the palace for a day and have not come back.
"I don't know about my subordinates, but it must be for the autumn hunt!" Li Xing thought for a while and said.
"Autumn hunting? What do you mean? Bai Mingyue asked puzzled.
"It's the annual autumn hunt in the palace! Miss Bai, haven't you been? Li Xing looked at Bai Mingyue's blank appearance and couldn't help but ask suspiciously.
Bai Mingyue was slightly stunned. There seems to be some related picture in my mind. But that was a long time ago.
Before she married Long Yun, she had gone to participate in hunting activities in the palace. It's just that since marrying Long Yun, she hasn't been there. Because Long Yun didn't allow her to follow wherever he went.
"I... Of course I did. It's just that there is a hunting event in the palace, why haven't I been notified? Bai Mingyue asked.
It stands to reason that although there is no one in their White Mansion, they should have been notified. But she didn't know anything about it, it seems that the emperor is not very authentic to their White Mansion!
"No, it won't! A few days ago, the palace had already sent people to issue notices to various mansions. The White House should have been notified. You go back and take a look, maybe it's because you haven't returned home, so you don't know! Li Xing said.
Hearing this, Bai Mingyue thought about it and felt that there was such a possibility. So I don't bother anymore.
"Just go back, as long as the emperor doesn't forget about our White Mansion."
"Miss Bai, are you going to go hunting too?" Li Xing asked suddenly.
Bai Mingyue thought for a moment. She really wants to go, but the things in the store still need her to control, and she may not be able to leave.
"When are you going?" She asked, thinking for a moment.
"I heard it was the day after tomorrow."
"The day after tomorrow?" Bai Mingyue frowned. She's still thinking about opening the day after tomorrow! How could it be such a coincidence?
"Miss Bai, is there any problem?" Seeing that Bai Mingyue reacted so much, Li Xing asked suspiciously.
"It's okay, I shouldn't be able to go the day after tomorrow." Bai Mingyue said with some regret.
"Why?" Li Xing asked subconsciously.
"Because ......!" Bai Mingyue paused suddenly. I thought it would be better to keep a little mystery. If Li Xing and Long Mu really went to participate in the hunt, she would surprise them when they returned.
"Li Xing, why do you have so many questions! Be quiet, I'm going to eat. Bai Mingyue suddenly said with a straight face.
Li Xing: "......"
He was so innocent, it was obvious that she was the first to talk to him.
Although he was a little aggrieved, Li Xing didn't say anything, and stood aside obediently and didn't speak.
Bai Mingyue finished eating and asked people to clean up. Then she kicked Li Xing out, and she wanted to bathe.
When she was full and took a shower, she climbed straight into bed and went to bed. She hadn't forgotten that she needed to catch up on sleep today.
Just as she was falling asleep, Long Mu finally came back.
In order to accompany Bai Mingyue for dinner, Long Mu deliberately came back before dinner. Unexpectedly, when he came back, he was told by Li Xing that Bai Mingyue had already eaten. He was suddenly unhappy, Bai Mingyue didn't wait for him.
However, since he hadn't seen Bai Mingyue all day today, he still missed her. So despite being a little angry that she didn't wait for him to eat first, he still came to her.
Who knew that as soon as he entered the door, he found that Bai Mingyue was sleeping soundly.
Seeing Bai Mingyue asleep, a sense of loss crossed Long Mu's eyes. He hadn't seen her for a day, and he suddenly wanted to hear her voice and see how she flattered him.
came to the side of the bed and looked at Bai Mingyue's sleeping face. He sat down slowly, gently tucking the quilt for her.
