She took great care to draw sketches with the other jams, which were quite festive in a fancy way anyway.

Just for this cake, Ruhan and her arms are getting tired.

Cheng Xiaoxiao is even more so, basically the whole time she's the main focus.

So in the morning when Chu Hongyi called her to get up, she was but just laying down not even sleeping solidly.

If it wasn't for the sake of surprising Chu Hongyi, she couldn't have come up with the idea of hiding the cake in the closet.

After spending time together yesterday night, Ru Han also thoroughly knew that Cheng Xiao Xiao was not an ordinary little palace maid, but a good friend of Chu Hong Yi.

But all of that is an afterthought.

Now Cheng Xiaoxia not only did not know that she was being targeted by Princess Su after her identity was exposed, she also did not know that Chu Hongyi stared at the birthday cake on the table and pondered hard without guessing what the object in front of her was.

All she knew was that she had been wandering furtively for quite some time at the stone steps of the entrance to the Imperial Study, and had not been able to wait for Chu Yunshen to come out.

The patrolling guards came several times, if not for the fact that she had Chu Hongyi's jade pendant on her body and was able to say that she was here to invite Chu Yunshen under the guise of Chu Hongyi, she would probably have been captured or directly executed again.

How else do you say the palace is bad? You can't move without dying.

Chu Yunshen, who was still deliberating with Chu Hongzhen, didn't know that there was a 'Looking Glass Stone' at the door, and he had just handed a copy of the 'Beauty Fragrance' to Chu Hongzhen.

Of course what Chu Yunshen gave Chu Hongzhen was the ordinary 'Beauty Fragrance', the same one used by those Hu Ji.

Chu Yunshen came here this time to confess the matter of Granny Dixie, and submitted the evidence he had long ago gathered to Chu Hongzhen.

Along with them, naturally, were the confessions of Granny Ogiwa and Heruru, as well as the mandala powder and balm.

With the physical evidence and witnesses of the confession, even if Chu Hongzhen does not believe his words, can go to let his own people to check again.

But how could Chu Hongzhen not believe it?

'Beauty Incense' but just opened, Chu Hongzhen smelled that familiar fragrance, all things instantly clear.

The scent was almost exactly the same as the scent on Zhu Rong's body, both of which was a flowery scent that couldn't be described.

It is Zhu Rong body scent elegant cold and cold a few points, Chu Hongzhen hands 'beauty incense' smell more pungent, sweet and greasy many.

Thinking of their own this January is so small box of incense is fascinated, but also made so many ridiculous behavior.

Chu Hongzhen was so angry that his face was green and white, half a day could not slow down.

"Father rest his anger, this matter is intertwined, and my son is afraid that eighth brother will be confused for a moment and will act in other inappropriate ways."

Chu Yunshen used his indifferent voice to advise a few words, and after thinking about it, he still reminded.

"Are you saying that Old Eight has something else on his mind?"

Chu Hongzhen also reacted, and he frowned as he habitually tapped his fingers on the desk.

Chu Yunshen lowered his head and did not directly answer Chu Hongzhen's words, but as long as Chu Hongzhen himself connected everything together, Chu Jingshuo's mind was not difficult to guess at all.

Most of the civil ministers in the dynasty have become Chu Jingshuo that faction, coupled with the power of Zhao Guifei Zhao's family, and now it is even more so in Chu Hongzhen side of the installation of Zhu Rong ...

In this way, I'm afraid that it is not to empty Chu Hongzhen the emperor before giving up.

Chu Hongzhen's lips were pursed, and just by looking at him, he knew that he had already figured something out.

The matter has been reported and the meaning conveyed in full.

The explicit hints were all over. It was also time for Chu Yunshen to leave the imperial study.

Until the door of the imperial study was closed tightly again, Chu Hongzhen suddenly thought of something in general called out Yuan Qing,

"Yuanqing, what did you say last time that Old Eight was busy with?"

Yuan Qing bent his head to Chu Hongzhen and once again repeated the same answer as at that time, also shattering the last shred of sanity in Chu Hongzhen's heart,

"His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince has recently been close to Grand General Fuyuan, and the two of them have been talking wine day in and day out."

"Great General Fuyuan? Good! Good old Buster!"

Chu Hongzhen suddenly let out a loud laugh, the sound of the big even has been waiting outside Cheng Xiaoxiao heard.

Cheng Xiaoxiao was just about to reach out and look when she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure slowly entering her line of sight.

What a sassy, flamboyant gentleman!

Your Majesty, wait for me!

Cheng Xiaoxiao was guilty of nymphomania as she watched Chu Yunshen walk past her, and it was only when she could only see Chu Yunshen's back that she reacted to the fact that the person she had been waiting for for a long time had actually passed her by just like that.

She originally wanted to directly call out to Chu Yunshen, but seeing Chu Yunshen s clear and elegant back, she suddenly had a mischievous heart ...

"Your Highness King Jing, you dropped your things."

She walked to Chu Yunshen with small broken steps and reached out her hands again to stop Chu Yunshen's body, lowering her head to Chu Yunshen and whispering a reminder.

"..."

Half a day didn't wait for Chu Yunshen's reply, and she didn't dare to look up directly at Chu Yunshen, for fear that she would reveal herself if she looked over.

"Pick up the conversation instead, ask me what you dropped."

Cheng Xiaoxiao muttered in a small voice, her arms were sore from lifting.

"What did the king drop?"

Suddenly came Chu Yunshen's pleasant cello-like voice to his ears, Cheng Xiaoxiao waited for so long, not just waiting for this moment.

She raised her face to reveal an incomparably bright smile, a pair of large, soulful eyes narrowing into a nice crescent shape as she playfully said to Chu Yunshen,

"Your girlfriend dropped it!"

After many years, the guards who had long ago stopped being on duty still remembered such a sunny winter day, the young girl dressed in a wakame-colored Liuxian dress standing against the light.

Her skin was as white as snow, her crooked smile was as bright as starlight, and her eyes shone with a sly light.

The handsome man across from her had black hair like silk, his robes moved in the wind, and while his face was clearly expressionless, his eyes shone with unmissable favor.

With a bad smile on her face, Cheng Xiaoxiao was still looking at Chu Yunshen expectantly, but what she got in return was Chu Yunshen stretching out his index finger to her forehead.

"You've been naughty again."

Chu Yunshen shook his head helplessly, took back the warmth he had just touched into his palm, and quietly clenched his fists.

"You always hit me like this, I'll become stupid!" Cheng Xiaoxiao complained as she rubbed her forehead in pain, not forgetting to shrink her neck and inhale while doing so.

Perhaps she herself hadn't realized that not only was she pouting unconsciously, but her voice had become a little sweeter than usual.

"Did you already know it was me?"

Cheng Xiaoxia thought carefully about it and still felt that it was not right, how can there be such a good thing.

As soon as she came over to block the road, Chu Yunshen obediently stood here to cooperate with her.

This was simply not Chu Yunshen's nature alright.

Chu Yunshen raised an undeniable eyebrow, he clearly did not say a single word, but used his expression to tell Cheng Xiaoxiao everything.

"So what's a 'girlfriend'?"

Chu Yunshen thought of Cheng Xiaoxiao's words just now and finally couldn't help but ask.

Seeing that the always confident Chu Yunshen rarely revealed a puzzled expression, Cheng Xiaoxiao was inevitably a little smug,

"I won't tell you, you wouldn't know if I did."

Chu Yunshen was more accustomed to Cheng Xiaoxiao's staggering personality than anyone else, and he didn't force Cheng Xiaoxiao to do so, he just smiled faintly at Cheng Xiaoxiao, and kept this smile that hadn't been hidden.

Cheng Xiaoxiao's persistence instantly collapsed under this smile, and just as she was about to be unable to resist, Chu Yunshen brought her with him in a turn towards the side of the stone steps to hide.

And while turning around, he also used his own cloak to block Cheng Xiaoxiao's body, using his back towards the stone steps.

He himself didn't stand straight like he did just now, but bowed slightly closer to Cheng Xiaoxiao.

His hand, on the other hand, was just enough to hold up the edge of his cloak, and his entire arm was almost resting on top of Cheng Xiaoxiao's head, though it didn't really touch Cheng Xiaoxiao's head.

"What's wrong?"

Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't know what Chu Yunshen's sudden movements were because of, so she had to catcall her body and whisper into Chu Yunshen's ear.

When she spoke, her hot breath sprayed on Chu Yunshen's ear, and the crispy feeling provoked half of Chu Yunshen's body to stiffen.

After waiting for a while, Chu Yunshen lowered his arms to resume his normal standing posture.

And looking at him he also deliberately stood farther away from Cheng Xiaoxiao, and the expression on his face was somewhat unnatural.

"Someone just passed by."

Chu Yunshen coughed lightly and explained his behavior just now to Cheng Xiaoxiao.

"Did it go to the royal library?"

Cheng Xiaoxiao actually saw a red shadow of a cloak in a trance, as if there was also a golden armor.

Unfortunately, I don't know exactly what the man looked like, it was quite imposing from this distance.

Chu Yunshen nodded slightly as he sized up Cheng Xiaoxiao once more and finally thought of something to ask,

"Why are you still in the palace?"

Cheng Xiaoxiao also finally reacted to the purpose of her trip, she deliberately put on a straight face and crossed her arms to say to Chu Yunshen unconvincingly,

"What? I can't show up at the palace? Can't show up in front of you?"

Seeing that Cheng Xiaoxiao was about to change back to her signature look of playing rogue when she was a lion cat, Chu Yunshen decisively chose to tighten his thin lips and stop speaking.

Cheng Xiaoxiao, however, did not intend to let Chu Yunshen go, she was evil from the bottom of her guts, thinking that she originally did not have any unwarranted image in front of Chu Yunshen, so she did not intend to have any more scruples at all.

Just when she wanted to give an educational lecture to Chu Yunshen to express her heart's dissatisfaction with Chu Yunshen's handling of things, the splitting sound that suddenly resounded on the side of her ears startled her into silence.

Immediately followed by a few 'thumps', followed by colorful flames reflected in Cheng Xiaoxiao's clear eyes.

"Chu Yunshen look, it's fireworks!"

Cheng Xiaoxiao couldn't care less about accusing Chu Yunshen, she tugged on Chu Yunshen's sleeve with one hand, and pointed at those gorgeous light clusters in the sky with one hand, so excited that she stood still and stomped her feet.

Chu Yunshen didn't have any reaction, he first looked at the young girl on his side tugging at his sleeve, and the corner of his mouth secretly blossomed into a small arc before he looked at the distant sky under Cheng Xiaoxiao's renewed urging.

The many, many colored lights in the sky rose quickly, leaving behind a line of gray smoke.

Pop! A "flower" bloomed and blossomed in the air.

Splitting into countless tiny points of light, one after another, they blossomed from the bottom to the top.

A cluster of small points of light some of which would disperse again, floating in the air for a while before they would reluctantly and gradually fall to the ground.

"It's beautiful."

The wordless Cheng Xiaoxiao looked at the magnificent scenery in front of her with unblinking eyes and couldn't help but exclaim.

"It was specially prepared by Father for Fourteen's birthday."

Chu Yunshen's voice was accompanied by a loud roar.

"Pity."

Cheng Xiaoxiao looked at those brilliant flower fires with some reluctance, "It's a pity that it's not nighttime now, or it would definitely look better."

Chu Yunshen glanced at the young girl who had some gloom in her eyes and muttered a question,

"You like it a lot?"

"Who wouldn't love something so beautiful and romantic?"

Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't take Chu Yunshen's words to heart, and just casually replied, and after that, she tugged on Chu Yunshen's arm again to ask him to look at the other fireworks.

Chu Yunshen instead silently memorized it, and on his face, he still looked over with the direction of Cheng Xiaoxiao's finger.
