Chapter 194 The Princess's Annoying Little Fairy Turns Out to Be the Big Boss 21
Pan Yunxuan thought she had concealed it very well, but she was still not experienced enough, and her undisguised eyes were instantly noticed by Ye Qiao and Xu Yu'an.
"Your Highness, why is there a sour smell coming?" Xu Yu'an was calm and collected. With his jade-like hand, he picked up a green grape and put it into the woman's mouth.
At this moment, Ye Qiao felt like a tyrant and Xu Yu'an was the stunningly beautiful concubine.
"It seems that we can't have a good feast today." Ye Qiao bit into the grape, and the sweet grape juice instantly filled his entire mouth.
"I heard that the Left Prime Minister has found his daughter, and I would like to congratulate him." Pan Yunxuan stood up and looked at the Left Prime Minister on the chair.
"I am very happy today. I wonder if I will have the honor to present a song for you all."
Pan Yunxuan had a charming voice, beautiful looks, and was favored by the Queen. It had long been heard that she was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, but she never showed them off. Today, she actually took the initiative to request to show them off.
Suddenly, everyone was looking forward to it. This was a famous noble lady in the capital, and they were in for a treat.
"Really? Thank you very much, Miss Pan." Zuo Xiang was a little surprised, but still agreed with a smile. After all, it was just to liven up the fun.
Pan Yunxuan stood straight, like a proud swan, "I am still in need of an accompanist..."
After saying that, Pan Yunxuan looked around and quietly fixed her sights on Ye Qiao.
"I wonder if Your Highness would be so kind as to share the joy with the people?"
If Ye Qiao didn't agree to this, it would mean that she was too high up and out of touch with the people.
Ye Qiao curled her lips. He was doing this again? Did he really think she was a fool?
"Princess……"
A glimmer flashed across Xu Yu'an's beautiful eyes, and his jade-like fingers touched his chest. The meaning was very clear. He could pretend to be sick now and let Ye Qiao take him away to avoid this farce.
Ye Qiao looked at the man's handsome profile and couldn't help thinking in his heart, Xu Yu'an is really not afraid of outsiders saying that he is weak!
"I also want to help Miss Pan play music, but unfortunately, I am not good at music." Ye Qiao stood up and admitted frankly that he was not very good at it.
What to do? She is just a lazy person. It is impossible for her to play the piano. Ye Qiao said that she didn't even want to move.
Xu Yu'an looked at the woman with a playful expression as if to say, "What can you do to me?", and a smile appeared in his beautiful eyes.
Pan Yunxuan didn't expect Ye Qiao to reply like that. She didn't know what to say. The woman's generosity made her look like a clown.
At this time, the noble ladies finally reacted. They were all girls who grew up in wealthy families, so how could they not see Pan Yunxuan's intentions?
"How funny! He knew the princess was not good at playing the piano, but he still deliberately..."
"I think Pan Yunxuan is too eager to show off herself."
"A princess is a princess. Just from the comparison just now, Pan Yunxuan, the clown, really stands out from the rest."
Pan Yunxuan listened to the gentle discussions of the noble ladies around her, and her eyes suddenly turned red with grievance. It was Ye Qiao who should be embarrassed? Why did it become her?
After Ye Qiao finished speaking, he sat down without being affected at all.
"Miss Pan, do you want to perform again?" As the host, Su Su came out at the right time to smooth things over.
"I..." Pan Yunxuan was not experienced enough after all, and she stammered and didn't know what to say.
"Su'er has received Miss Pan's kindness on behalf of my father, so there is no need to perform anymore." Su Su took over the words and said lightly.
Pan Yunxuan could only sit down miserably, and she vividly portrayed the situation of trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead.
Ye Qiao glanced at Pan Yunxuan whose eyes were red. She was too lazy to think about her with such little skill.
The banquet ended quietly, during which Shen Yi wanted to approach Ye Qiao and start a conversation several times.
But it was also strange that every time he saw Ye Qiao trying to step forward, the woman would be pulled away in the opposite direction by the man in blue beside her.
Shen Yi's stern face was cracked with anger, and he felt even more uncomfortable in his heart.
Obviously, I was happy to see Ye Qiao, but when I saw her walking with Xu Yu'an, my happiness turned into bitterness.
After returning to the princess's mansion, Ye Qiao left Xu Yu'an aside and went into her own room. She still had a lot of account books to settle.
It seems that Xu Yu'an can't feel Ye Qiao's indifference. If she doesn't go to him, why can't he come to her?
Thinking of Ye Qiao, the exquisite and handsome man in blue, a hint of tenderness appeared in his clear eyes.
"My lord." A man with ordinary appearance, dressed in servant's clothes, walked in from outside the courtyard.
A shout broke Xu Yu'an's tenderness, and the man returned to his cold attitude.
"explain."
The servants usually wouldn't come to him unless there was something important. What happened this time?
"My lord, in order to win over the Prime Minister's Mansion, the princess sold you..." The servant kneeling on the ground was a little stuck. What should he say? He couldn't just say that he sold you to the Prime Minister's Mansion's daughter.
After hearing all the information, Xu Yu'an's beautiful eyes showed a little bit of sadness for the first time. As expected, the woman who wanted to sit in that position was so cruel.
Xu Yu'an then realized how ridiculous it was that he had been so anxious for so many days about her discovering his true identity. From the beginning to the end, he was the only one who was moved.
Xu Yu'an stretched out his slender and clean hand and touched his chest. For the first time, he felt the pain in his heart.
The moonlight gradually became brighter, dyeing the bright sky black.
Ye Qiao finished dealing with all the bills and turned around, only to find that Xu Yu'an, who always hung around her, was not here today.
"Miss, there's a letter from the Prime Minister's Mansion." Xiao Tao, with two pigtails, ran over from outside the yard.
Ye Qiao frowned, opened the envelope, and after reading the entire text, an idea instantly flashed through his mind.
"I will have dinner with my husband tonight, so please get ready." Ye Qiao instructed Xiao Tao.
In the evening, Xu Yu'an appeared at the table on time for dinner.
The man in blue had a handsome face, a jade crown tied high on his head, and he was silent. He sat upright, looking like a picture of a handsome man.
The usually lively Xu Yu'an suddenly became quiet. His outstanding appearance became increasingly hard to ignore. Ye Qiao didn't know how to start the conversation about what was going to happen next.
"Xu Yu'an, are you taking a day off tomorrow?" the woman asked while secretly observing the man's expression.
Although Xu Yu'an was not allowed to enter the officialdom, he still studied in school and had a few days of rest every month, which was called "rest day".
"Princess, is there something wrong?" The man's long eyelashes trembled slightly, hiding the bitterness in his heart.
Does this mean we have to use him to gain the support of the Left Prime Minister?
"Nothing much. I heard that a new restaurant opened in the capital, so I planned to go for a visit." Ye Qiao had a strange feeling that his little sweetie seemed to be in a bad mood today.
"Princess, do you want me to accompany you?" Xu Yu'an's low voice came.
Ye Qiao scratched his head. If he wanted to go, then he could go. If he didn’t want to go, then he wouldn’t go.
Seeing Ye Qiao's indifferent look, Xu Yu'an suddenly felt aggrieved. Doesn't he care about him at all?
"Tomorrow, I will wait for the princess outside the princess's mansion." After saying this, the man in blue got up and left in a huff, not giving Ye Qiao any chance to react.
Ye Qiao: Why does he seem strange today? Do men also have unstable moods for a few days?
