"It shouldn't be, right?" Cui Ying didn't dare be sure. After all, the angry roar just now was enough proof that Seventh Miss had offended the Regent.
"It will be fine!" Peach Red took a deep breath and quickly comforted herself, "Her Highness has always been very good to Miss, even if she's angry, she wouldn't really act against Miss."
Cui Ying sighed in his heart, the temper of the Regent King had always been volatile. Who knew if he would make a move on the Seventh Miss this time?
The two of them were anxiously walking back and forth in the pavilion when the Water Spirit Pavilion door suddenly opened. The two of them quickly looked in the direction of the door and saw that Jun Qingshang, who was dressed in black robes, had walked out. An Ying, who had gone somewhere else, appeared beside him.
Peach Blossom took the chance and rushed forward to grab An Ying: "What did you do to my family's young miss?"
"What can I do to Seventh Miss?" An Ying frowned in displeasure, "Seventh Miss is resting inside the Water Spirit Pavilion, His Highness has ordered for no one to be allowed to enter. If you have nothing else to do, you can go to the kitchen and prepare some food. "
"Really?" Tao Hong did not believe what An Ying said. After all, this person was with the Regent King.
"Believe it or not!" An Ying was too lazy to explain to her, so he turned around and left.
Peach Red saw that An Ying had ignored her and directly left, causing her eyes to turn red from anxiousness, she stomped her feet and asked: "Hey! "Where's the kitchen?"
An Ying still did not turn back, and only pointed Peach Blossom in a direction, not even saying a word.
Peach Blossom stomped her feet in anger. Cui Ying shook his head and tried to chase her to ask: "Forget it, we'll know when we get there."
"Sister Cui Ying, we are not familiar with each other in the Duke Palaces, where should we go?" Peach Red was nervous for Yun Ruoleng, but she knew that the Regent’s Mansion was not something that a servant girl like her could barge into.
"Then ask me the way!" Wait here, I'll be right back. " Cui Ying gave Peach Blossom a comforting smile and quickly left. As for Peach Blossom, she frowned as she looked in the direction Cui Ying left in, then turned her head to look at the tightly shut Water Spirit Pavilion. She sighed, not knowing when the young miss would come out.
Jun Qingshang stepped into the study, and An Ying immediately followed: "Master, do you want to send people to guard Water Spirit Pavilion?"
"No need." Jun Qingshang sat on the table, he opened a imperial report and suddenly thought of something, he closed the imperial report and said coldly: "Go to the kitchen and inform everyone to prepare the special dishes."
"Yes." An Ying replied. Although he was not convinced, but Jun Qingshang had given the orders, so he had no choice.
After Cui Ying walked around the garden, she found that she was really lost, and at this time, she could not even see a single person. It was unknown if her luck was bad or if she was unable to find a way back after wandering the whole garden.
"Who?" As Cui Ying was standing under the tree, trying to distinguish between north, south, east and west, his head suddenly hit by something, he angrily raised his head and glared at the person on the tree.
"This is the palace garden, how did you get here if you aren't a servant girl from the palace?" Sitting on the tree was a cute little girl wearing light green clothes.
"I am a servant of the Minister’s Mansion. I specially accompanied Seventh Miss to thank Your Highness today, but I don't want to get lost." Although Cui Ying did not know the other party's identity, looking at her dressing, she should have a high position in the Duke's Palace.
"Eh …" The girl landed on the tree and stood beside Cui Ying, her eyes wide, "Why have I not seen Seventh Miss have a servant like you?"
"I am Third Young Miss's personal maid." Cui Ying frowned, "I wonder if Miss can tell me the way to Water Spirit Pavilion?"
The girl frowned, and looked at Cui Ying vigilantly.
Cui Ying's hair stood on end as she looked at him, and he could not help but ask: "Does Miss know your path?"
"Of course!" The girl coldly snorted and asked with a displeased expression, "Why are you going there?"
"The Prince has locked his Seventh Miss inside." Cui Ying paused, but continued to patiently ask, "Can the lady give me a path?"
"I'm the one …"
"An Xiang!"
"Big Brother An Ying." The girl's eyes lit up, and turned towards An Ying with a particularly sweet smile.
"Where is Miss Cui Ying going?" An Ying didn't even look at An Xiang, as his gaze landed on Cui Ying's embarrassed face.
Cui Ying coughed lightly. "I couldn't find the kitchen, so I wanted to return to Water Spirit Pavilion but... I'm lost. "
"An Xiang, take her with you!" An Ying nodded, and then turned and said to An Xiang, with a doting smile on his face, "You are not allowed to be rude to this lady."
An Xiang pouted, her almond-shaped eyes swept across Cui Ying, and said unhappily: "I don't want it!"
"An Xiang!" An Ying was the leader of Jun Qingshang's guards, but this An Xiang had always done as she pleased. Furthermore, she was the only girl in An Ying's guard, so none of them bothered about her. As long as she didn't make too many mistakes, they wouldn't make things difficult for her.
Of course, Jun Qingshang had always treated them equally.
An Ying was suddenly annoyed: "Stop messing around! If the Prince finds out, you'll be punished again. "
"I …"
Seeing that An Xiang was not willing to send him on his way, Cui Ying did not feel troubled, but instead invited An Ying to send him off.
An Xiang did not expect herself to reject Cui Ying in such a way and she was not angry. What made her even more surprised was that Cui Ying had pulled An Ying away from the place, who had been cold and emotionless all this time.
After accompanying Cui Ying to the kitchen, An Ying escorted her back to the pavilion safely, then returned to the study room to report back, "Master, An Xiang is back."
Jun Qingshang did not make a sound, and quickly wrote the word "Quasi" on the imperial report before raising his head and coldly saying: "An Ying Wei is getting more and more unruly."
"This subordinate knows his wrongs …"
"You know your wrongs?" Jun Qingshang threw the imperial report onto the table and chuckled, "What's wrong with that?"
"Master handed An Ying's guards over to Subordinate, this Subordinate did not take care of this Subordinate properly, the fault is one. This Subordinate protected this Subordinate, and if you are aware of the mistake, this Subordinate wishes Master to punish you."
"Go claim fifty lashes for yourself." After Jun Qingshang finished speaking, he continued to review the imperial reports.
"Yes sir!" An Ying knew that he would not be able to escape this time, so he replied and left.
Yun Ruoleng slept until he naturally woke up. After waking up, he felt that he was extremely energetic, and his entire body felt a lot more at ease. He sat on the bed and looked around his surroundings. Only then did he realize that he was not in his own Everlasting Courtyard.
Yun Ruoleng got off the jade bed and walked out of the room as fast as he could.
The summer sunset was especially alluring. The orange horizon revealed half of the sun's face. It seemed as if it was reluctant to part with the sun for the rest of the day.
