My Fair Princess: The Queen's Rebirth

Xiao Jian looked at Yongqi with some surprise.

He was surprised that Yongqi would say this. He always thought that Yongqi was a high-ranking prince and the most beloved son of the current emperor, so when Yongqi said this, he was shocked.

"Xiao Jian, why are you looking at me like that? I feel uncomfortable all over." Yongqi felt a little embarrassed when Xiao Jian looked at him, and his body shook unconsciously.

He had never been looked at like this before.

And it was done by a man.

After Xiao Jian came back to his senses, he smiled awkwardly and even felt a little embarrassed. He said, "Sorry, I was presumptuous. I just didn't expect you to be so humble."

"I'm telling the truth. Xiaoyanzi is indeed very good, and most importantly, she's very motivated." Yongqi's smile gradually faded as he spoke, and he felt a little disappointed. "Some time ago, she was pestering Ertai and Ziwei to teach her how to read and play chess."

"Learn to play chess?"

Xiao Jian asked in surprise.

He doesn't know that Xiaoyanzi is illiterate.

It turns out that Xiaoyanzi can't read.

But it's normal that she can't read, after all, she has never had any chance to learn to read.

Xiao Jian sighed softly.

Yongqi nodded, his eyes suddenly gleaming as he continued, "But Xiaoyanzi is very smart and learns quickly. She already knows quite a few words now."

"Xiaoyanzi is truly worthy of being my sister." Xiao Jian said proudly.

Xiaoyanzi, who was walking in front, saw Xiao Jian and Yongqi walking so slowly.

She stopped and said impatiently, "You two should walk faster."

Xiao Jian and Yong Qi smiled at each other.

After Xiaoyanzi, Xiao Jian and Yongqi left the Bachelor's Mansion.

Ziwei tactfully pulled Seya over and said with a smile, "Seya, I think you must be tired after walking around for so long. I'll take you in to have some tea and rest."

"Okay." After Seya followed Ziwei into the house, before Ziwei could speak, she sat down on the chair directly, as if she treated the Bachelor's Mansion as her own home.

She raised her head and looked around, admiring everything in the house, and even felt that the decoration of every corner was very delicate and special.

Erkang pushed Ertai under the pavilion and looked at him seriously but didn't say anything. He just kept staring at Ertai.

Ertai couldn't help but tremble, "Brother, why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?"

"Stop talking nonsense to me," Erkang shouted angrily. "Don't you like Xiaoyanzi? What on earth are you doing today? You don't care about Xiaoyanzi's feelings at all. Don't you realize she's angry?"

After hearing Erkang's words, Ertai immediately explained: "Oh, brother, you really misunderstood me. Didn't I tell you that the emperor asked us to accompany the Tibetan princess well? I was afraid of neglecting her."

"The Tibetan princess has grown legs and arms, and she can tell me what she wants to buy. Besides, we brought a few maids and eunuchs with us when we left, so why do you have to keep following her around?" Erkang paused for a moment before continuing, "Let me tell you, Ziwei has already found out what Xiaoyanzi said for you."

Ertai immediately became excited when he heard this, "Brother, what did Xiaoyanzi say? Does she like me?"

Seeing Ertai's nervous and beating-looking appearance, Erkang raised his hand and couldn't help but hit him.

Ertai was beaten by Erkang but dared not say a word.

I had to endure the pain silently.

After all, I did something wrong today.

"Yes, she likes you, but she didn't realize her feelings at first." Erkang continued, "But judging from what happened just now, the fact that she likes you is definitely true."

Ertai breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the answer he wanted.

"That's fine, that's fine."

"In that case, you better be more careful later." Erkang was about to hit him again, but he dodged it. "When Xiaoyanzi comes back later, remember to comfort her well and don't act like a fool."

After Xiaoyanzi and Xiao Jianyongqi came back from the slum.

It was already dark.

It was time for dinner.

Erkang invited everyone to stay at the Bachelor's Mansion for dinner.

"Princess Seya, it's my honor to have the chance to dine with you today." Fulun picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

Seya saw Lord Fu toasting her, so she also filled her bowl with wine, "Lord Fu, we Tibetans drink from bowls, I won't be polite here."

"I didn't expect you to be such a good drinker, Princess." Fulun continued, "It seems I made a fool of myself just now."

Seya waved her hand and said, "In our Tibet, this is nothing." Then she drank all the wine in the bowl and wiped the wine remaining on the corner of her mouth with her hand.

When Ziwei saw Seya drink up the wine in the bowl, an expression of surprise instantly appeared on her face.

But this expression did not last long.

She looked at Xiaoyanzi who was sitting next to her.

"Xiaoyanzi, I know you like chicken legs the most." Ziwei picked up a chicken leg and put it in Xiaoyanzi's bowl. "I'll get you anything else you want to eat."

Xiaoyanzi used chopsticks to stir the rice in the bowl, then looked up at the chicken leg that Ziwei had picked up for her.

She still shook her head disinterestedly.

In fact, she knew that she shouldn't do this in front of VIPs, but she just couldn't control her heart.

And she also knew that Ertai had been accompanying Princess Seya today only because the emperor had given the order, and Ertai had no choice but to do so.

But even if she knew, she just couldn't accept that Ertai was not with her.

"Ziwei, don't worry about me." Xiaoyanzi replied calmly, "I can just pick up whatever I want to eat."

However, at this moment, Ziwei suddenly stretched out her foot and kicked Ertai.

Ertai reacted instantly and switched seats with Ziwei to sit next to Xiaoyanzi.

When Xiaoyanzi saw Ertai sitting over, her face immediately darkened and she said unhappily, "Get away from me! Don't sit next to me! I don't want to see you."

"Little Swallow, my good Swallow, please let me sit next to you." Ertai pleaded with Little Swallow with an aggrieved look. He didn't care what others thought of him or even his parents. He just wanted to make Little Swallow happy.

Xiaoyanzi deliberately adjusted her sitting posture and turned her back to Ertai.

Seeing this, Ertai stood up happily and walked up to Xiaoyanzi with a thick face.

"Good Swallow, good Swallow, Hero Swallow, please don't be angry." When Ertai was about to reach out to pull Xiaoyanzi, he didn't expect Xiaoyanzi to be quick-eyed and quick-handed. She picked up the chopsticks and hit the back of his hand.

Ertai screamed in pain.

Seeing that he was in excruciating pain, Xiaoyanzi quickly grabbed Ertai's hand and found that the back of his hand was already red.

She looked at Ertai distressedly, "Why didn't you dodge? Are you crazy? You knew I would hit you, but you didn't stretch your hand back. You clearly wanted to make me feel guilty, right?"
