Chapter 111: Quarrel Again
Chapter 111: Quarrel Again
The light outside the window dimmed and the palace lanterns in the bedroom were lit.
This sleep was long enough!
Xu Keke stood up, put on her embroidered shoes and walked out.
Dingdang and Anxiang were waiting in the outer room. When they saw the young lady wake up, they hurried forward to greet her.
"Miss, you're finally awake. The kitchen has some hangover soup. Would you like a bowl?"
Dingdang asked with concern.
Xu Ke waved his hand.
"I'm not drinking anymore. I was just a little confused from sleep. How did I get back?"
Anxiang replied.
"Miss, it was the prince who carried you back in the palace's carriage!
The prince also said that servants are not allowed to disturb your sleep."
Xu Ke scratched his head embarrassedly.
It’s confirmed, the original owner can’t drink much, he gets drunk as soon as he drinks!
"Where is the prince?"
Dingdang and Anxiang looked at each other, then leaned over to Xu Ke's ear and spoke.
"Madame Wang came to talk to you, young lady, but the prince called her in for questioning. Miss, you asked about the song, and the prince might already know about it."
Xu Ke's heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself that something was wrong.
She had wanted to secretly find out who had composed the song, but she hadn't expected the prince to find out so quickly.
I was careless and forgot the prince's supreme authority in the palace.
But what could the prince doubt now that he knew?
Can't this princess be curious about a piece of music?
She calmed herself down and looked down at herself, still in her pajamas.
"Got it. You two go get someone to prepare some hot water. I need to shower and change clothes."
Dingdang and Anxiang responded and hurried to prepare.
After a while, the hot water was ready.
Permission to enter the tub is granted.
The warm water wrapped around her, and the rose-red petals exuded a pleasant floral fragrance.
How comfortable!
After bathing, Dingdang changed into a yellow dress for Xu Ke, which made her look more charming and pretty.
Xu Keke sat in front of the dressing table and let Dingdang comb her hair.
"Miss, do you think the prince will blame you for this?"
Dingdang asked worriedly.
Xu Ke snorted softly.
"What are you blaming me for? I'm just curious."
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.
Anxiang reminded in a low voice.
"It's the eunuch beside the prince."
As soon as he finished speaking, a young eunuch came in and bowed.
"Princess, the prince wants you to go to the study."
Hey, is the study tidy?
Xu Keke stood up and followed the young eunuch to the prince's study.
When I arrived at the study, I saw that it was clean and tidy, and the sandalwood bookshelves in the room were filled with books and scrolls.
A large carved desk was placed in front of the window, with pens, ink, paper and inkstone neatly arranged on it.
Next to the table is an exquisite incense burner with auspicious beasts, from which curls of green smoke rise, emitting a faint scent of sandalwood.
There is a rosewood couch in the corner, with several exquisitely embroidered pillows on it.
Wow, the servants in the palace cleaned really well. You can't tell at all that the prince had demolished the house today.
After Xu Ke finished sighing, he looked at Chu Musheng who was sitting behind the desk.
What are you doing?
He actually had a gloomy face.
Xu Ke's heart was a little nervous, but he still stepped forward, bowed and said:
"I have met the prince."
Chu Musheng snorted coldly and turned his head away, ignoring her.
Xu Ke looked at him in confusion.
Did the Dog Prince take the wrong medicine again?
what the hell is this?
After taking a few steps closer, Xu Ke touched Chu Musheng's arm.
"Your Highness, I don't know how I have offended you."
Chu Musheng slammed the book in his hand heavily on the table.
"Are you still pretending to be confused? Why are you asking about that song?"
Xu Keke's eyes widened.
No!
Is the Dog Prince really making a fuss over such a small matter?
"Your Highness, I only heard that piece of music at a palace banquet and thought it was beautiful. I'd like to know who composed it. Is that wrong?"
"Do you really just think it sounds nice?"
Chu Musheng stared at Xu Keke with a sharp gaze.
Xu Ke was a little panicked, but still pretended to be calm.
"Of course it's true, Your Majesty, don't think too much about it."
Chu Musheng stood up and lifted Xu Keke's chin.
"I'm warning you, you're my princess, don't have any thoughts about other men, or else don't blame me for being ruthless."
Xu Keke felt aggrieved. How could she have thoughts about another man just because she heard about a song?
It turned out that the Dog Prince took the wrong medicine.
She pushed Chu Musheng away.
"Since the prince doesn't trust me, what's the point of me staying in this palace?"
After saying that, he turned and ran out of the study.
Chu Musheng sat back in his chair and gave an order.
"An Yi, go see how the princess makes a fuss."
"Yes."
After An Yi's voice disappeared, Sheng Er walked into the study.
"Your Highness, I have already asked the stewards in the mansion to close every door."
"Well, you can go down. I will wait here for a while."
Sheng Er backed out.
I guess the prince can’t bear it for much longer. It’s almost time for dinner.
Chu Musheng picked up the teacup and sipped the tea slowly.
I imagined that the princess would smash everything and I wondered how I would comfort her.
Xu Keke ran all the way back to his dormitory, threw himself on the bed, closed his eyes and started howling.
"Woo woo woo, this dog prince is simply unreasonable! I can't live like this anymore."
Dingdang and Anxiang were anxiously trying to comfort her.
"Miss, don't cry and hurt yourself. The prince may have misunderstood. It will be fine once he calms down."
Dingdang patted Xu Keke's back gently.
Xu Keke sat up and wiped away her non-existent tears.
"He misunderstood? He doesn't trust me at all!"
After saying that, she stood up, walked to the dressing table, picked up a vase and wanted to smash it on the ground.
But when his hand was raised halfway into the air, it stopped again.
This vase looks very expensive.
"No, I can't let that dog prince get away with it. I can't smash the things in my own house."
So Xu Ke walked out angrily.
Dingdang and Anxiang followed her with nervous expressions.
An Yi watched in the dark, thinking silently in his heart.
The princess's reaction was different from what the prince expected. Why didn't she throw things?
Anxiang seemed to notice An Yi following her and paused.
In just a short while, Xu Keke had arrived at the garden and kicked a sweet-scented osmanthus tree.
"Ouch! It hurts me so much!"
An Yi almost couldn't help laughing out loud.
At this time, Xu Keke looked at the pond beside her again. She rolled her eyes, picked up a stone and threw it in.
"Pfft!"
The water splashed, scaring the fish away.
"Dingdang, Anxiang, come and play with me."
Then, the three of them played skipping stones in the pond.
While playing, you may forget your worries.
Laughter breaks out from time to time.
An Yi watched for a while.
Well, I see, the technique of Anxiang is the best.
Not seeing that the princess was angry, An Yi had no choice but to go back and report the truth to Chu Musheng.
Chu Musheng, who was full of expectations, frowned slightly after listening to An Yi's report.
"Shouldn't this woman be furious? How come she let it go so quickly?"
