Chapter 1227 I Misjudged Her
The next day.
Just when Murong Yao was discussing with Bai Jun about going out for a walk, perhaps meeting someone with a pure soul, Eunuch Lin from the palace arrived.
He conveyed the emperor's oral order, saying that he wanted to see Murong Yao.
"The emperor wants to see you?" Bai Jun was a little surprised when he heard this. After all, they just came back yesterday. Why did the emperor want to see Murong Yao today?
The only possibility is that it was the masterpiece of the little princess Huangfu Qi.
"Mr. Murong, the emperor and the young master are waiting for you, please set off quickly." Eunuch Lin looked at Murong Yao.
"Eunuch Lin, is there anything the emperor wants to talk to A Yao about?" Bai Jun approached Eunuch Lin and asked in a low voice.
"Oh... Miss Bai, how do we know what the emperor is thinking?" Eunuch Lin said hurriedly upon hearing this.
"Eunuch Lin, let's just treat this as a casual chat." Bai Jun said as he stuffed a leftover pill that Yan Li usually threw away into Eunuch Lin's pocket.
Although she didn't see clearly what type it was, it was definitely at the God King level.
"This... Miss Bai, I see that you are a very kind person, so I will reveal some information to you. I heard that it is about a piece of drawing paper. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is particularly excited." Eunuch Lin said.
Murong Yao and Bai Jun looked at each other when they heard this, and it turned out that they came for the thousand-year-old painting paper.
"Don't worry, we will adapt to the situation when the time comes." Yan Li's voice came from the drawing paper.
"Who? Who is talking?" Eunuch Lin was very scared.
"Eunuch Lin, it's me who's speaking." Bai Jun said and then stuffed another gold coin card into his pocket.
"It's getting late, we should set off." Eunuch Lin got a benefit, a big one at that, and he was in a very good mood.
"Okay, let's go." Bai Jun nodded.
The three of them walked towards the gate of the Bai family, got on the palace carriage and headed towards the palace.
As a servant, Xiaoliang was not qualified to enter the palace, so he had to stay in the Bai family.
"Miss Bai, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is almost obsessed with all kinds of drawing paper. You'd better... be careful. Some things should be given up." After bringing Bai Jun and the others into the palace, Eunuch Lin reminded them in a low voice.
"We understand. Thank you, Eunuch Lin, for the reminder." Bai Jun thanked with a smile.
Eunuch Lin brought them to where the emperor and the prince were. When Bai Jun and the others arrived, the little princess Huangfu Qi was also there.
"Cousin, you are here." Seeing Bai Jun, Huangfu Qi came over and took her arm affectionately.
Bai Jun nodded at her with a smile, and pulled his arm out of her hands without leaving a trace to salute the emperor and the prince.
"Jun'er, no need to be so polite. I heard from Qi'er that you got a thousand-year-old drawing paper which is very magical. Hurry up and take it out and show it to me." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said impatiently.
"Your Highness, we did not bring the thousand-year-old painting paper with us." Bai Jun replied calmly.
"I didn't bring it out." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's tone was obviously very disappointed.
"Brother Prince, I didn't lie to you, my cousin and the others really did get a piece of thousand-year-old drawing paper." Huangfu Qi hurried forward to take credit.
"Yes, you are the best. I will help you get the hairpin you want." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at her lovingly and said.
Bai Jun felt something was wrong when she heard this, and she looked at Huangfu Qi deeply.
It seems that Miss Yan was right. This little princess is not pure at all.
She knew very well that if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knew about the existence of the drawing paper, he would want to snatch it away, but for her own benefit, she still sold the news to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
"Cousin, I didn't tell the prince on purpose. I just said it accidentally when we were chatting. Since I said it accidentally, I will cheat him out of something. You won't blame me, right?" The little princess looked at Bai Jun with innocent eyes.
White fungus: ...
What a simple and innocent little white flower!
She accidentally put both of them in a difficult situation!
Now it seems that I was deceived by her before.
But now is not the time to turn against her.
"Of course not. I know that the little princess is innocent and kind, and she can't hide things in her heart." Bai Jun said perfunctorily.
"I knew that my cousin was the best." The little princess hugged Bai Jun's arm again and acted coquettishly.
"Master Murong, that thousand-year-old painting paper..." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince obviously did not want to give up.
"Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is curious, my third grandfather will come from home in a few days. I will ask him to bring it here, and then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can take a look at what it is." Murong Yao said.
"Okay." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince then revealed a smile.
Afterwards, the emperor asked them some more questions before letting Murong Yao and his companions go back.
On the carriage.
"Miss Yan is right. The little princess is not pure at all. I misjudged her before. I thought she was the only pure land in the palace." Bai Jun sighed.
"Jun'er has a pure heart, so it's normal for her to be deceived for a while." Murong Yao held her hand and comforted her.
"After what happened at the Imperial Master's Mansion, do you still think that my heart is pure?" Bai Jun said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
She knew very well that the self who returned to the Imperial Master's Mansion was completely different from the self who was outside.
In the Imperial Master’s Mansion, I was a fierce young lady who would punish anyone who made a mistake.
"It's still pure. A person's purity of mood cannot be judged by appearance." Yan Li's voice came from the drawing paper.
"Miss Yan, what if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sees the thousand-year painting paper and wants to snatch it?" Bai Jun was a little worried.
"When the time comes, you can just say that the painting paper is strange and will choose its own owner. If someone who doesn't like the painting paper tries to snatch it, he will be in trouble. Leave the rest to me." Yan Li said.
"Yes, Miss Yan." Bai Jun and the others breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that.
The carriage stopped at the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion. As soon as Bai Jun and his companions returned to the Mansion, Old Man Bai, the Imperial Preceptor, and his wife were anxiously waiting for them in the yard.
"Jun'er, those two people in the palace didn't make things difficult for you, did they?" Old Master Bai asked worriedly.
"No, it's just that A Yao got a piece of thousand-year painting paper a few days ago, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was a little interested in it. But we don't have it with us, so we have to wait for Third Grandpa to bring it over." Bai Jun replied with a smile.
She found that there were several people eavesdropping around, probably waiting to see her make a fool of herself.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very obsessed with various kinds of drawing papers. I'm afraid this thousand-year-old drawing paper..." The Imperial Master hesitated to speak.
"Don't worry, all things that have existed for a long time will have their own consciousness. The same goes for this thousand-year-old painting paper. It will choose its own owner. If someone insists on snatching it away, they will be in trouble." Bai Jun said with a smile.
"So magical?" Mr. Bai and others were very curious.
"Isn't it? The spiritual consciousness of this thousand-year-old painting paper is very overbearing. I can't wait to get rid of it. If it can turn to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I will be even happier." Murong Yao also said with a smile.
Naturally, he said this to the people who had followed them along the way.
I believe these words will soon reach the ears of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
