Chapter 281 A small accident
The third prince explained: "I'm sorry, I was thinking about something just now and didn't notice what you said."
Zheng Sisi asked: "What are you thinking about so intently?"
The Third Prince: "Uh, yes..." He quickly stopped talking. He couldn't bring up this matter so suddenly. He could only find a suitable opportunity. After a pause, he said, "It's about you building a workshop. Is the soap workshop going to be built in the capital?"
Zheng Sisi: "You are thinking about this, okay, I will give you the soap recipe later, you can arrange someone to prepare it, I don't have time to do it."
The Third Prince asked, "You gave me the recipe so easily, aren't you afraid that I will cheat you?"
The carriage was swaying as it drove along the street. Zheng Sisi thought it was nothing. Recently, she heard people say that the Third Prince kept people at a distance and usually had a very serious expression. She planned to tease him.
Zheng Sisi sat on the couch, leaning forward, with her elbows on her knees, her hands on her face, looking seriously at the Third Prince in front of her, and asked naively: "Then will you lie to me?"
The Third Prince felt nervous when she stared at him. He swallowed and said, "No."
Zheng Sisi stood up and said, "Look, that's it. Trust between people is like this. We are partners. I believe you won't lie to me."
The third prince chuckled, very happy that Zheng Sisi trusted him so much.
Zheng Sisi asked in confusion: "Why do they all say that you are cold and serious? Obviously, you have many facial expressions, and I often see you smile."
The Third Prince defended himself, "Maybe others don't know how to appreciate me. They only saw me once and said I'm serious."
Zheng Sisi nodded in agreement: "Yes, a single leaf can block the view. So the rumors are not credible, ah!..."
The moving carriage suddenly braked suddenly, and Zheng Sisi fell backwards uncontrollably, hitting the wall of the carriage and then falling onto the low table in front.
The third prince reached out to grab Zheng Sisi when she fell backwards, but failed to catch her. He then caught her when she lunged forward and held her to his side.
The third prince asked outside: "Qingfeng, what's going on!"
Qingfeng's voice was also very anxious: "Master, are you okay?"
The Third Prince: "It's okay."
Qingfeng: "There was a small accident just now. Two children suddenly ran out of the alley. They ran too fast and were almost trampled by the horses. I'll go down and take a look."
The third prince said, "Okay, don't let anything happen."
Zheng Sisi patted her chest and said, "I was almost disfigured just now."
Then he realized something was wrong. How come he had patted the third prince's hand?
The two looked down and their faces turned red instantly.
The Third Prince quickly let go of his hand, his voice stammering: "I, I didn't, I didn't mean it."
Zheng Sisi blushed and responded with a low "hmm", then moved to sit opposite the third prince. Even if Zheng Sisi was usually thick-skinned, she felt embarrassed now.
It turned out that the Third Prince had reached out from the side to grab Zheng Sisi, and he didn't pay attention to where he was holding her, and he directly pulled her to a safe place beside him. It was not until Zheng Sisi patted the Third Prince's hand while comforting herself that they realized something was wrong. They looked down and saw that the Third Prince had one hand around Zheng Sisi's waist and the other hand just covering Zheng Sisi's right breast, hugging Zheng Sisi in his arms.
There was silence in the car. No one spoke. Both of them were holding their breathing. They could still feel each other's body temperature remaining in the places where they had just touched.
The shaft of the cart in front sank a little, and I felt someone getting on board.
The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and Qingfeng poked his head in: "Master, County Lady, I hope I didn't disturb you."
The third prince cleared his throat and said, "It's okay. The child is not hurt."
Qingfeng: "He was not injured, just a little frightened. He was taken away by the adults. I gave him one tael of silver so that they could buy some candy to comfort him."
The Third Prince: "Okay, hurry up and drive the carriage!"
Qingfeng: “Oh!”
Qingfeng let down the curtain and turned back to drive the carriage. He always felt that there was something strange about the Third Prince and the County Princess. Normally the County Princess was so active, but why didn't she say a word just now? And both of their faces were red.
Qingfeng touched his head, whipped the horse's butt and shouted "Go", wondering whether he should tell his brothers about the strange behavior of the Third Prince and the County Lady when he got back.
