Quick Wear: Another day of being criticized for falling in love at first sight

This was Miaomiao's first time riding in Yan Beiji's carriage.

As she stepped into the car, she immediately felt the refreshing coolness.

There was an exquisite ice basin placed inside the carriage. Even though the sun was pouring down on the earth outside, making everything scorching hot, it was cool and pleasant inside this small carriage.

This discovery made Miaomiao feel a little relieved.

Miaomiao sat in the carriage by herself, looking around, but she didn't notice the actions of Yan Beiji who got on the carriage later.

There was nothing special about it. Before getting on the carriage, he just glared fiercely at the vendor selling sugar-roasted chestnuts not far away.

The vendors who were originally welcoming customers started to tremble uncontrollably after meeting Yan Beiji's gaze...

“Ask Jiayi, what happened with those two maids sleeping with you last night?

I need to know the answer before entering Nanfeng Tower!"

Yan Beiji looked at Xiao Qianzi beside him, narrowed his eyes slightly, and spoke in a low voice.

It was not until white fingers stretched out from the curtain of the carriage as if to open it that Yan Beiji put away his cold expression and got into the carriage with a warm face.

Therefore, Miaomiao and Yan Beiji, who had already left, naturally had no idea that Xiao Qianzi, who was a step behind, was running to buy chestnuts, and by the way, discussed with the chestnut seller how the incident between the two women and one man happened last night.

Jiayi was filled with question marks on his forehead. This is absolutely impossible.

While in the carriage, Miaomiao just remembered what Yan Beiji said today, that he wanted to have a friend to listen to music with.

"I wonder which friend did you invite to listen to the music together?"

Yan Beiji looked at the obedient little boy who was secretly yawning.

"It's Doctor Cai, an acquaintance of Miaomiao's. He's just not off duty yet. He'll come looking for us when he's off duty."

Yan Beiji stopped there and did not respond further to the matter of Medical Officer Cai.

He doesn't like to hear the other person paying attention to other people, as it makes him feel like he is the one being excluded.

The carriage traveled for the time it took to stick of incense before finally arriving at Tingxue Tower, a legendary and elegant place favored by dignitaries.

Because it was backed by powerful officials in the court, it had only been in business for a short time and had always been law-abiding and abided by the rules. It was able to escape disaster this time as it was not found to have done anything immoral.

Miaomiao followed Yan Beiji's steps and got off the carriage. Because the two maids had angered Yan Beiji, they did not come with her. The only ones who came with her were the usual team of guards, who followed behind the guards of the Regent's Palace.

Seeing the three words "Listening Snow Tower" written on the plaque in front of her, Miaomiao inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.

I guess I was judging others by my own standards. She thought she couldn't get in smoothly. Obviously, I misunderstood this brother, whose behavior was worthy of the title of a gentleman.

When the two stepped into Tingxue Tower, a refreshing and elegant scent hit them in the face, neutralizing the pungent fragrance on Miaomiao's body.

The soft and melodious sound of stringed instruments began to appear as soon as they stepped in, like the gurgling of water or the breeze in the forest, making people unconsciously immersed in it.

Perhaps because the entire building was reserved, it was very quiet. Only a few maids in simple clothes and silver masks occasionally passed by carrying trays.

It's quite romantic.

Miaomiao and her friend had just sat down under the guidance of the maid, and had not even taken a sip of their tea when they saw a group of aggressive soldiers appear outside Tingxue Tower and quickly walk into the building.

The leader was a burly man in armor. He seemed to know that there was a guest here, and he strode directly to Yan Beiji, knelt on one knee, and saluted with his fists.

"Your Highness, the Regent, I have received a tip-off that a former king's traitors have been discovered hiding in Listening Snow Tower. I have been ordered to cordon it off and search it. I hope Your Highness will forgive me."

Yan Beiji frowned and stood up. After a moment of silence, he looked at Lu Miao, who was looking silly with his lips slightly parted.

"Brother Lu, since this is the case, we can only cooperate."

Miaomiao could only nod in agreement when she heard this, as she couldn't just stay in Tingxue Tower.

There are traitors, this is no joke.

Then he stood up and walked towards the door.

"I haven't seen the Snow Girl yet."

Looking at the tea that she hadn't even taken a sip of, and the empty stage where Xue Niang hadn't yet gone on stage to sing, Miaomiao said with some regret.

Yan Beiji lowered his eyes and took in Lu Miao's regretful look. Looking at Miaomiao's disappointed look, a deep jealousy flashed in his eyes.

There was even a moment when I wondered why I wasn't a woman...

"It seems I'll have to wait until next time. Although I'm the regent, I can't interfere with the progress of the investigation."

Yan Beiji raised his hand and gently patted Miaomiao's shoulder to comfort her.

When Miaomiao came out of Tingxue Tower and felt the sunlight scorching the earth without any obstruction, her brain, which had just been clear, immediately became confused.

She felt hot all over and a stone pressed on her chest, making it hard for her to breathe.

She raised her hand to fan herself, and with a casual glance, she saw a newly built building not far away.

There is a word "Nanfeng Tower" written on the door. The building has carved beams and painted buildings, and the flying eaves and brackets reveal a sense of elegance. Even the lanterns in front of the door exude a unique style.

It doesn't matter whether she books a room or not. She just needs to make her reputation as a slut so that she can politely decline Yan Beiji's feelings for her other than his brotherly feelings.

Thinking of this, Miaomiao turned her gaze to Yan Beiji, her eyes full of anticipation.

"Brother, look at that place up ahead. It's quite interesting. Why don't we have dinner there today?"

Yan Beiji looked in the direction Miaomiao pointed, his eyes flashed slightly, a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he nodded happily.

"It's rare that Brother Lu is interested in this, so let's go and take a look.

But please wait a moment, Brother Lu. I will give you a few instructions first, so that the doctor on duty, Officer Cai, won’t be lost in finding the place.”

Yan Beiji ordered his guards to escort Miaomiao to [Nanfeng Pavilion] first, while he looked at Xiao Qianzi who had been waiting for a long time not far away.

"Reporting to the prince, Jiayi has checked and found nothing unusual happened last night, and the marquis did not call for water...

The two maids entered the young marquis' room after half past the hour of Mao..."

After Yan Beiji heard Xiao Qianzi's words, the anger that he had suppressed suddenly melted away like snow under the warm spring sun.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling refreshed and bright in his heart.

Yan Beiji knew that Lu Miao was suspicious of his behavior, so he deliberately created this ambiguous illusion to make him retreat.

But he didn't understand himself, and didn't know that he had never had any desires or demands, and that he had only become ambitious for the throne in order to live a better life.

But now, his desires only belong to him, and he cannot be forced away by rejection.

If it was really so easy to force them to retreat, he would have forced them to retreat long ago when he knew that he had eight concubines and two maids, and he would not have fallen into such an embarrassing situation now.

Pray for a man to love you...

But so what?

He just likes it, he just loves it. When he sees it, he feels that the world is colorful. It is the only bright color in his life, and it is something he must grab and make his own!
