Quick Wear: She is the White Moonlight
Chapter 16 2 Emperor Bai Yueguang (5)
Since knowing that he would have to go down the mountain and go home in two days, Yuebai first wrote a letter to the prime minister's wife to inform her of the time of his return home. After hesitating for a long time, he still asked someone to take a verbal message to Chu Ji, saying only that he would go down the mountain and go home for a few days.
For some reason, Wang Chen began to avoid Yuebai intentionally or unintentionally these days. Yuebai finally couldn't stand the way he wanted to say something but stopped and then quickly turned around and left. In fact, he was still secretly hiding not far from Yuebai and silently watching Yuebai.
"Brother, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong with me?"
Wang Chen walked out calmly from behind the Bagua furnace, his face calm as if they had just met by chance.
"Junior sister, I just happened to come here to look for you. Master has something for me to do, so I can't go back with you."
Yuebai looked at Wangchen suspiciously and asked, "What's the matter? You can wait for Senior Brother to come back with me and then we can do it together. Brother also wrote to me saying that he wants to have tea and discuss Taoism with Senior Brother."
"Brother and Master Lin hit it off right away. If there's a chance, I'd like to meet him, too. But there's a charity hall built in the temple at the foot of the mountain. I haven't visited it for a while. Master asked me to go ask if there's anything missing."
Yue Bai nodded, indicating that he knew, and said jokingly: "Then go ahead, Senior Brother. It seems that my brother will be disappointed. If you go to Wanyuan Hall and need anything, please come to the Xiangfu to find me."
"Of course." Wang Chen had already made up his mind that although he would not accompany Yuebai back to the prime minister's residence, he would still go down the mountain with Yuebai.
As Yuebai waited, the day finally arrived when we could go down the mountain.
Knowing that her daughter was going home today, the prime minister's wife instructed Prime Minister Lin early in the morning to send a carriage to the foot of the mountain to pick up Yuebai.
But coincidentally, Chu Ji also came to pick up Yue Bai.
When Yuebai and Wangchen were still some distance away from the mountain gate, they saw a familiar figure waiting by the carriage. Wangchen immediately frowned, and Yuebai quickened his pace and walked forward.
Chu Ji saw Yuebai from afar, and waved to Yuebai excitedly while running towards this side.
"Are you okay? I heard that you were going home today, so I specially asked my father to come out of the palace to pick you up." Chu Ji hadn't seen Yue Bai for half a year, and he looked her up and down.
Then she turned to look at Wang Chen who was walking slowly towards her, and said with a cupped hand: "Thank you, Taoist Wang Chen, for taking care of me, the future Crown Princess, for the past six months."
Wang Chen was depressed and tried to force himself to smile, but failed in the end. He really couldn't be nice to his junior sister, his nominal fiancé, so he finally said with a wooden face, "No need."
Chu Ji was in a good mood and didn't care what Wang Chen was thinking. He waved his hand and Xiao Fuzi beside him immediately came forward with a tray. Chu Ji reached out and took off the cloth covering the tray, revealing piles of gold ingots inside.
Wang Chen's expression became more and more ugly. Chu Ji said gratefully, "Of course I should. I hope you won't refuse."
Yuebai came out quickly to the rescue: "Brother, please accept it. Consider it as a donation from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to the charity." After saying that, Yuebai glanced at Chu Ji.
Wang Chen clenched his hands tightly into fists hidden in his wide Taoist robe. Chu Ji's action today was simply to make him understand that he was an outsider. He calmed down in a few breaths.
Wang Chen smiled dotingly and replied, "Junior sister is kind-hearted. In that case, let's donate it to the charity. It is my duty to take care of Junior sister. Your Highness the Crown Prince does not need to thank me."
Chu Ji knew that Yue Bai would get angry if he continued making trouble, so he decided to stop while he was ahead and didn't say much. He signaled Xiao Fuzi with his eyes to hand the tray to Wang Chen.
Wang Chen had no choice but to ask the Taoist boy beside him to accept it.
"Okay, the foot of the mountain is not the place to talk, please get in the carriage, brother." Yuebai pointed at the carriage of the prime minister's mansion, indicating that Wangchen could set off.
"Since Taoist Wang Chen is riding in your carriage, then Yuebai, you can ride in my carriage. We haven't seen each other for a long time. I brought you a lot of your favorite snacks." Chu Ji said hurriedly.
Yuebai was about to speak, but Wangchen refused directly: "Don't bother your Highness, I'm not on the same route as you guys, so I'll say goodbye now."
"Senior brother..."
"Junior sister, I will come to you after I finish what Master has asked me to do." After saying that, he did not give Yue Bai a chance to speak, and said to Chu Ji, "Your Highness the Crown Prince, I will say goodbye now."
Chu Ji quickly said goodbye to Wang Chen, holding Yue Bai's hand and walked towards his carriage.
Wang Chen stared at their folded hands, his eyes dark and unclear, as if some wild beast was struggling to break out of a cage.
Yuebai got on the carriage and kicked Chu Ji twice in annoyance. Chu Ji's bright eyes were full of smiles and indulgence.
Xiao Fuzi put out some snacks. Chu Ji did not lie to Yuebai. He really prepared a lot.
"I always felt that you would suffer in the dilapidated Taoist temple on the mountain. Fortunately, your hypocritical senior brother seemed to be really nice to you." Chu Ji also picked up the pastry and stuffed a piece into his mouth.
"Don't say that, Senior Brother. We will be a family from now on. My Senior Brother is also your Senior Brother. You can't be rude to him."
When Chu Ji heard the first sentence, he was planning to have a good talk with Yue Bai, but when he thought of Yue Bai saying that they would be a family in the future, his heart was filled with sweetness and he nodded quickly.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. How many days do you plan to stay at home this time?" Chu Ji asked tentatively.
Yuebai looked at him calmly and said, "I don't know either. Maybe I have to wait for my senior brother to pick me up, and then we can go back together."
Chu Ji supported his chin, frowned, and said with some embarrassment: "Three days later is the Girl's Day, I want to go with you."
The people of Da Chu are open-minded, and many unmarried men and women will come out on the Girls' Day. If they fall in love with each other, they will exchange lanterns. Yuebai was a little moved.
"Okay! Let's go together!" Yuebai hadn't seen a lively place for half a year, and the mountain was indeed a bit deserted.
The two chatted all the way until they arrived at the prime minister's residence. The prime minister's wife had been waiting at the door for a long time. Before she got out of the car, Yuebai heard her voice.
"Finally you're back. Come on, let mother see if you've lost weight."
Sure enough, when the curtain was opened, the person who came into Yuebai's sight was the Prime Minister's wife. The Prime Minister personally helped Yuebai get off the carriage and stroked Yuebai's cheek.
"You've lost weight, but it's not good living in the mountains?" Yuebai had never left home since she was a child. She was worried every day after Yuebai left.
"No, mother, I have been very good in the past six months. How is mother? How are father and brother? Why haven't I seen them?"
Madam Xiang was a little stiff, and Yuebai noticed something was wrong with her and asked, "What's wrong, mother?"
"Hua'er is probably not well..." Not wanting to make Yuebai feel bad, she quickly said to the people around her, "The Crown Prince sent the young lady back today. Please invite the Crown Prince in for a cup of tea."
Yuebai was a little surprised. Why did his brother change the script without permission again?
