Quick Wear: Oops, the mission target is crying again

Chapter 930: The Wasteful Prince vs. the First Female Official 1

Xuan Yanjing took the quilt, turned around and spread it neatly on the bed. Although it was not as neat and beautiful as the ones spread by the servants, it was obvious that this was not the first time he had done this.

Yes, Xuan Yanjing doesn't like others entering his room, nor does he like anyone helping him change clothes or go to bed. It is estimated that his room is a forbidden area in the Prince's Mansion.

Xiao Fuzi had just been frightened by Xuan Yanjing and rolled into the dining hall to wait. Looking at the table full of food, he felt both regretful and worried.

It's a pity that these dishes have been lying there for the whole morning and haven't been touched. What worries me is that I don't know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has done to Concubine Wen.

After all, Wen Shang Gong is the prince's tutor and a third-rank female official. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really does anything to her, wouldn't that give the Imperial Noble Consort an opportunity to make trouble?

As for the Emperor, his relationship with His Highness has been strained over the years. If he knew about this, His Highness the Crown Prince would definitely be punished.

Just when Xiao Fuzi was praying in her heart that His Highness would be gentler, Xuan Yanjing arrived.

Following behind him was Wen Lingyao—still the intact Wen Lingyao.

Moreover, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seemed to be in a good mood.

Even though His Highness frowned and muttered as soon as he sat down at the table: "This dish is completely cold!"

But Xiao Fuzi, who had followed him for many years, knew that His Highness was not in a bad mood at the moment, and could even be considered in a good mood.

After all, in the past, His Highness would have been furious when he saw the cold food, and would have either asked someone to make a new one or simply not eat it.

Today he was still sitting at his seat, holding up his chopsticks and randomly picking up a piece of food from the table and putting it into his mouth.

Xuan Yanjing took a bite of the cold dish, as if he just realized that someone was following him.

His eyes were still on the dishes: "Please sit down. The dishes are cold today. They are not as good as the Imperial Concubine's. You can eat it if you want. If you don't want to eat it, forget it."

Lingyao had already sat down. When she heard Xuan Yanjing's words, her eyebrows raised slightly.

I seriously doubt that this little bastard knows that she was summoned by the Imperial Concubine to have dinner yesterday.

But she didn't ask, she just said, "I've eaten."

"It's up to you." Xuan Yanjing buried his head in taking a bite of food and took the time to throw out a sentence.

Xiao Fuzi looked at the two of them, why did she always feel something was strange?

But Xiao Fuzi himself couldn't tell what was strange about it. Seeing that Xuan Yanjing seemed easy to talk to, Xiao Fuzi wanted to make amends and make up for the mistake he had just made.

He walked up to Xuan Yanjing and served him two spoonfuls of his favorite crab meat stew, and gave him some news that would make Xuan Yanjing happy.

"Your Highness, when I went to the imperial kitchen to get food today, I heard some gossip about the Third Prince and his men."

Xuan Yanjing raised his eyelids, looking unconcerned. "What news?"

Xiao Fuzi continued, "I heard that the Third Prince fell down in his own residence yesterday for no apparent reason and broke his forehead. And the Fifth Prince, I heard that the cricket he had raised for several months, like a precious child, suddenly disappeared yesterday..."

"The worst-hit one is the eldest prince. He accidentally ate tapioca starch yesterday. The eldest prince can't eat tapioca starch, so he broke out in a rash that night. Even the imperial kitchen was checked today. The imperial doctors were very busy last night..."

Xuan Yanjing paused slightly with his chopsticks holding the crab meat. Was he overthinking it? Why were all the people in trouble the ones who rode with him yesterday?

But who would do such a thing? He was just a useless prince known to everyone.

Xuan Yanjing chewed twice and suppressed all his doubts deep in his heart, but he did not forget to raise the corner of his lips to make a gloating comment.

"Deserve it!"

"The eldest prince always looks like a good guy, but in fact he sets traps for me everywhere and thinks I know nothing. The fifth prince is naive, and as for the third prince... humph!" He is the most pretentious!

Before Xuan Yanjing could finish his words, he was interrupted by Xiao Fuzi's violent coughing.

Xuan Yanjing glanced at him and said, "Are you feeling unwell? If you are, go find a doctor right away!"

Xiao Fuzi wasn't feeling uncomfortable at all; he was completely worried about his Royal Highness the Crown Prince! He kept giving Xuan Yanjing a look.

"Your Highness, the person the Imperial Concubine arranged is sitting next to us. It's fine if they're just talking about the First and Fifth Princes, but they're saying bad things about the Third Prince right in front of him. Be careful, or the Palace Lady will go and say something to the Imperial Concubine..."

Xuan Yanjing understood Xiao Fuzi's eyes, and Lingyao understood it too.

How could you not understand? Xiao Fuzi's eyelids were blinking and squinting so much that they were about to have cramps.

It makes sense that these master and servant have ended up like this in the palace.

Xuan Yanjing also realized that he might have talked too much, but when he thought that Lingyao would report his words to the Imperial Concubine, he felt unhappy again.

That bit of unhappiness was like a ball of air stuck in my chest, which I couldn't let out, nor could I swallow. I could only hold it in, and even the air around me became a little heavier.

He could only poke the rice in the bowl hard, taking out his anger on the Imperial Concubine and the Third Prince.

The stagnant air was broken by Lingyao.

"Since you knew they were setting you up, why did you still go?"

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yanjing's eyes, which had just been slightly raised, now drooped completely, his eyelashes closed like butterfly wings, covering up all his emotions, leaving only dead silence.

The bowl of steamed pork with rice flour on the table still had an aroma, but Xuan Yanjing could no longer smell it.

He picked up a piece of rice with his chopsticks and put it down again.

"What if I don't fall for it? If one doesn't fall for it, there will be another and a third. Why don't I just grant their wish? And they can give me some peace and quiet for a while."

Xuan Yanjing's lowered eyes were as dull as a deep pool that had never been exposed to light for years.

Her eyelashes were thick and long, but they were always drooping, almost covering the entire pupil, as if she was afraid of being seen by others.

He was silent for a while, then suddenly raised his head, the curve at the corner of his lips looking like it was drawn with a brush.

The tail of her eyes was slightly raised, with a bit of nonchalant sharpness: "So, Lord Wen, you can rest assured. I will cooperate with you to complete what the Royal Concubine arranges for you to do."

In Xuan Yanjing's sight.

This person, whose face always had no expression, like a painting without smudged ink, looked at him with those black eyes like the surface of a frosted lake.

But there were also some differences. Beneath the lake, the softness in her eyes that had not yet dissipated was like the moon covered by clouds, with only a little warm light leaking out through the gap that no one noticed.

Xuan Yanjing heard her voice, which was very resounding.

"I'm not the Imperial Concubine's man."

Then who are you?

Xuan Yanjing subconsciously wanted to ask back, but the words got stuck in his throat. How could he be so gullible? The other party just said one sentence, and he believed it again.

When he was a child, there were many cases where people used roundabout tactics to get close to him and then destroy him.

The most outrageous incident happened to the wet nurse who grew up with Xuan Yanjing.

It was not until Xuan Yanjing was nine years old that he was framed by his wet nurse and appeared in women's clothing in front of the ministers and the emperor in the palace, causing the ministers to laugh at him. The emperor was furious because he felt humiliated and put him under house arrest for three months. Only then did he cry and recognize the true face of the wet nurse who had been asking him to wear this outfit in front of the palace.
