Chapter 451 Prince VS Little Brother 51
Chapter 451 Prince VS Little Brother 51
Over the past six months, Xiao Yubai didn't impose too many strict rules on them and was kind and friendly, which allowed them to gradually understand Xiao Yubai's personality.
Now I have become bolder and I don’t think there is anything wrong with making a joke occasionally.
Xiao Yubai nodded slightly, feeling that what Mo Qin and Mo Hua said made sense.
Yes, if something really happened to him, how could this letter from home have arrived?
"That's right. Alas, my husband only sends a letter home every two or three months. I don't know how he is doing now. Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. I'd better go to the palace to see the little prince and Han Ge'er tomorrow." He sighed softly, as if talking to himself, or as if responding to the two people beside him.
The wheel of time rolls slowly and quietly enters August.
The weather this year was extremely unusual. The sky seemed to be blocked by an invisible barrier, and not a drop of rain fell.
The old farmers in the fields looked at the dry and cracked land with their eyes full of anxiety and expectation. They prayed devoutly every day for the arrival of rain to save their dying crops.
In the capital, the streets and alleys were filled with an atmosphere of unease, and the people were spreading rumors that this year there would be a severe drought.
When Xiao Yubai heard the news, his heart suddenly tightened, and the image of the army fighting outside instantly emerged in his mind.
If the drought continues, the supply of food and fodder will definitely be seriously affected. What should we do?
He paced back and forth in the mansion, his brows furrowed, the worries in his heart coming in waves like the tide.
After thinking it over again and again, he decided to go to the palace to ask Fu Runze. After all, when Fu Nanzhan left, he told him to go to Fu Runze if he had any problems.
After hearing from Fu Runze that there was no need to worry, and that Fu Nanzhan would soon take over the Dada Royal Court, he decided to go see the little prince.
Meeting the little prince might be a kind of comfort to calm his inner fear.
However, to his surprise, before he reached Han Guijun's palace, Xiao Yuyu suddenly appeared and blocked his way in a hurry.
Xiao Yuyu bowed with an upright posture and said respectfully, "Greetings to the Regent."
His voice was clear and steady, his movements were standard and his manners were graceful, showing the demeanor and cultivation of a young master from an aristocratic family.
"Get up." Xiao Yubai's face was stern, and his eyes showed an indifference that kept people at a distance. After speaking briefly, he immediately turned around and just wanted to leave as soon as possible.
He was truly disgusted with having anything to do with the people from Yong'an Marquis' Mansion, and his hurried steps seemed to carry an indescribable urgency.
"Brother, are you still blaming me?" Xiao Yuyu's eyes instantly turned red and tears burst out. He looked as if he had suffered a lot of grievances, as if the world had let him down.
Xiao Yubai smiled mockingly and said calmly, "Xiao Changzai is joking. We are not familiar with each other, so why blame me?"
He looked at Xiao Yuyu's pretending to be pitiful and found it ridiculous.
Wasn't it Xiao Yuyu who pushed herself out to marry Fu Nanzhan in order to avoid marrying him?
Now that he has successfully entered the palace, he is doing this again. What is his plan?
If Fu Nanzhan were here, he would definitely say that Xiao Yuyu was a peerless white lotus and an expert at pretending to be a little white flower, but he is not here now.
"Brother, I had no choice what happened back then. It was difficult for me to disobey the orders of our parents..." Xiao Yuyu wanted to continue expressing her helplessness, with a hint of sob in her voice, but was interrupted mercilessly by Xiao Yubai.
"Okay, I get it. I have nothing to do with the Yong'an Marquis Mansion now. These are meaningless to me." Xiao Yubai's expression was as calm as water, and his tone was full of coldness and alienation. After he finished speaking, he quickened his pace, just wanting to get rid of the person in front of him.
"I'm sorry, brother... I heard that many parts of Dayong are suffering from drought. I guess the Regent and his men are fighting outside and have encountered difficulties in getting food and fodder.
I heard that the Hanshui Temple outside the city is quite effective. I am in the deep palace and cannot go there. Your Majesty may wish to pray to the Buddha for the people and the prince... " Xiao Yuyu's words were sincere, but there was a hint of coercion in his words.
It seemed that if Xiao Yubai didn't go to burn incense, it meant that he didn't care about the people of Dayong and the Regent. The intention of moral kidnapping was very obvious.
"Yeah." This time, Xiao Yubai didn't give Xiao Yuyu any chance to speak. He just responded coldly and left without looking back.
His figure quickly disappeared into the distance, his posture upright and resolute, revealing an otherworldly temperament.
When Xiao Yubai's figure completely disappeared from sight, the weakness on Xiao Yuyu's face disappeared without a trace in an instant, and was replaced by a face full of resentment.
He gritted his teeth, his eyes burning with jealousy, and kept thinking in his heart: If it weren't for him, I would be the one sitting on the throne of regent and enjoying the honor now. How could I be facing obstacles everywhere in the palace and nothing would go my way like now?
As soon as he thought of this, he clenched his hands unconsciously, his knuckles turning white from the force, as if only this could slightly calm the resentment in his heart.
