I don't know what I was thinking, but after suffering such a blow, I should be scared and depressed. I should be unable to eat or drink well in a few days.

My stomach, I just can't get hungry. After kneeling for so long, my feet are numb and I'm trembling.

"I can't take it anymore." The low voice spoke.

The moment he raised his head, he met his gaze of ridicule. It was less indifferent and a bit more pleasing to the eye.

I'm serious myself, isn't that good? He didn't dare say that he couldn't take it. If he did, perhaps he would punish me like this next time, or make me kneel until daybreak. I would rather wash all the clothes and quilts in this Chong Gui Palace.

"Put it down." he said flatly.

I started, then put it down quickly. He said it, no doubt, no doubt, unless I wanted to put my hands down on the other end. It was so comfortable, not usually.

The delicate pastry on the table and the aroma of food made the gluttony in my stomach whine.

I swallow, trying not to look at their allure.

He picked up a piece with his finger and lightly ate it, "Bring me some tea."

Then, like a daughter-in-law, I handed him the tea.

"Can't you speak? The tongue is gone for the cat. " He sipped his tea and gave me a cursory glance.

"I'm punishing you because I want to punish you. Don't you think that your actions are too excessive and presumptuous? "It's getting more and more unbecoming."

"Sorry, Seventh Prince, this servant is too presumptuous." As I got closer, I noticed that there were still tiny bite marks on his fingers. Just how much strength did I use in the past?

"The tea is cold." he said flatly.

I reached out my hand to take it. "This servant has swapped them."

"If the tea is like this and the person is like this, then if the tea is cold, how do you eat it?" There was a hidden meaning in his words.

"I should have known earlier that he was going to give up on me. If I didn't give up on him and Shangguan Bing doesn't give up on him, then it would be bad for me to treat his sister, Princess Yuzhen. How could I not understand this logic?" Who says that when the tea is cold, you can't drink it? "

I drank the cold tea in one gulp in front of him.

Feeling a little proud, I wipe my sleeves and wipe the tea stains off the corner of my lips. I am still the same as before, trying to quench my thirst.

I raised my head and looked him straight in the eye, showing my determination to not back down. Just a moment ago, I was still thinking about how I was going to make amends, but after a moment, I lost all my face.

I feel like a mouse, and the cat jumps up when provoked.

He let out a soft laugh, and the atmosphere in the room instantly became a lot more relaxed. Ni Chu Xue, you obviously don't look like a palace maid, but why are you claiming to be a servant in front of this prince? Don't be too fake.

"Then what do you want me to call myself?" This slave is the lowest. What else do you have?

He closed the book and leaned back in his chair with his eyes closed. "What do you want to call yourself, what can you do with your looks and your old ones?"

I don't know what he said, "I am Ni Chuxue, what can I not do?"

He seemed to be sighing. "Then what do you want to do?"

"It means to leave the palace, it means to have freedom." That's what I want to do the most.

He sighed even louder, "Ni Chu Xue, is there anything you want to do? "Such as …"

He paused, and I looked at him wide-eyed. "Like what?"

He opened his eyes and within those dark eyes, there seemed to be something he could not say. Then, he waved his hand. In the future, you don't have to call yourself a servant. "

"Good," I said. I didn't want to be a servant, either. Whoever was born was a servant.

He propped his head up to look at me. I saw that something was wrong, so I gripped the cup even tighter. "Seventh Prince, what are you looking at?"

It couldn't be that he wanted to see how I was taller than the other maids, so he had to kick me so hard.

I poured a cup of tea and handed it to him.

He laughed softly, so low that I said, "Ni Chu Xue, I drank a cup of water, how come you drank it all in one gulp?" Now, pour me that cup again, and tell me if I want to drink it. "

This... My face turned red like fire, and I wanted to find a hole to hide in.

He quickly placed the cup on the table and took out a clean cup to refill the water.

"What a lazy palace maid." He lightly smiled, and it was a very relaxed smile. His face, too, became even more profound and beautiful.

I've never seen him smile before, but it turns out he looks so good when he smiles.

"I …" After a long time, I still couldn't say a single word.

Fine, so be it. I have a thick skin, if he wants to laugh, he should laugh. It's enough to tease me, he should already be acting like a prince. No matter how I look at him, he seems a bit repulsive.

He looked at the pastries and said, "Eat, don't make any unpleasant sounds."

"Seventh Prince, aren't you losing your duty?" Letting a palace maid eat, isn't this secretly taking care of her? Isn't it a loss of responsibility?

I am a person who "sticks to my duty". This is how I am in front of a certain someone. If I want to make things difficult for him, then so be it.

He shook his head and exhaled deeply, "That's enough, Ni Chu Xue. Why do you look like a palace maid? How can a palace maid kick a prince, how can she bite a prince, and even chase after him? I want to bicker with you, you have already died hundreds of times, and if I tell you to eat me, you eat me.

What he said made a lot of sense.

I was very experienced, but I didn't show much courtesy. Did he see through it as well? I am not essentially a chambermaid.

I, who had been eyeing the pastries covetously for a long time, unceremoniously swallowed one and said, "Seventh Prince, since you know about it, do you still want to tame it?"

"Ni Chu Xue, are you a horse?" He raised an eyebrow.

I shook my head. "I'm not a horse. I'm a person. I have my dignity. My value, my happiness, how you can't break my wings. "

He laughed softly, his eyes burning brightly. "It's not that I can't defeat you, but … Ni Chu Xue, do you think you will be convinced?"

Of course, I wouldn't be convinced. Otherwise, I wouldn't keep shouting at him.

He had a nice smile, but I still hated him.

I stood aside. He must be bored by now, so he chatted with me.

If the prince was not full of tricks and tricks, he would definitely be lonely. Every single one of them was the same thing every day, until he reached adulthood. Only then would he have some space and time to himself.

Although he has the tendency to admit defeat, he hates him just because he doesn't change my view.

I like Shangguan Yushi, I don't know what he'll do tomorrow.

I sighed to myself. Sometimes, if it was true, I wouldn't have met him first, wouldn't have liked him, and he wouldn't have had to be so embarrassed, wouldn't have lost his pride.

Within the palace, an indescribable aura flowed about, gently yet heavily.

At night, it was warm again. This time, I clenched my teeth, heard light footsteps outside the door, immediately jumped out of bed, and put on my shoes and stood to the side.

The seventh prince had a cold aura around him as he let the young eunuch take off his outer robe.

I was about to go out to give birth when he called out to me, "You don't have to be so early tomorrow."

I started to hate him again, and I was about to seal off all my information.

I answered flatly, "Yes." If he had the skill, he would have sealed this piece so that I wouldn't be able to see what color the sky was, and it wouldn't have been better. Even if they had wings, they wouldn't be able to fly out.

"Never mind, I'll come earlier tomorrow." He waved his hand. "Go on."

My heart leaped with a heavy sadness. When I reached the door, I couldn't help but turn back to look at him. "Will you let me go out and see the Emperor's birthday tomorrow?"

He waved the young father-in-law out and looked directly at me.

I approached his bed, where he sat with his long legs crossed. "Do you want to go?"

"I really do." I said eagerly.

"If you go, will you still cause trouble?"

I, how would I dare to cause trouble? I just wanted to see, I wanted to know if Shangguan Yu really did marry the princess, and that was all. "I don't dare to cause trouble, I don't have that kind of courage."

"If you don't cause trouble, you will just cause trouble for me when you return to the Chong Court, right?"

"It won't, it really won't. Seventh Prince, I know that I've done so many wrong things. You can punish me for anything. Please let me go tomorrow."

He lowered his eyes, hiding his emotions, and asked softly: "Ni Chu Xue, do you like Shangguan Yu?"

"Yes, I like him a lot. I like him, and he also likes me. We've known each other since before I even entered the palace."

"Is there an engagement?" The voice suddenly became shrill.

I shook my head. "Not yet. My family fell too fast."

"I've heard some things about your family," he said softly.

My eyes lit up as I grabbed his clothes. "Really, Seventh Prince, can you help our Yin Family redress our grievances? My father did not embezzle, it's all the fault of a traitor."

However, I also thought about the pear fragrance, now that pear fragrance is a sign, absolutely can not say the past.

I hurriedly let go of his clothes and gently ran my hand over the crease. I was really overreacting and my reaction became more intense, "This servant was wrong. Seventh Prince, this is really embarrassing. Since the Yin Family is already in such a state, I will not mention the past anymore.

"Sad." He looked at me so hard I didn't dare look at him.

"Yes, let's just forget about the past. You're only the Seventh Prince, how could you do this for a palace maid? If they knew, then who knows what they would say, and it would ruin the Seventh Prince's reputation."

He snorted, "Now you've turned around."

I obediently agreed, "This servant was wrong."

He raised his eyebrows. "You must remember to stay by my side and not take a single step away from me when you go to the birthday banquet tomorrow."
