Jing Yue stopped and realized that there might be a guest in Xiao Chen’s study .
"Your Highness," said Xing Yi, who was surprised at Jing Yue’s arrival at first and soon bowed to show his respect .
“Is he busy now?” asked Jing Yue with blinking eyes .
"Yes, His Highness is negotiating with Crown Prince . If it’s urgent, I’ll get in to report it to His Highness . "
Advertis.e.m.e.nt"Crown Prince?" His words surprised Jing Yue . She frowned slightly and said, "Forget it . It’s not a big deal . I will come again after he is done with this . " Then she slightly nodded to Xing Yi and was about to leave .
"Okay, that’s a deal . " The moment Jing Yue turned around, the study’s door opened .
A thin figure came out of the study, and then Xiao Chen appeared too . Jing Yue looked at them with a little surprise .
“Who is this?” asked the thin man . He had a pale face which showed his morbid condition . But his black eyes weren’t turbid at all . He looked so thin that even a gust of wind might easily carry him away . It seemed that he wasn’t strong enough to withstand the wind, because he even wore a cloak in August .
His clothes looked graceful and the dragon jade pendant attached to his waist wasn’t ordinary . Obviously, this sickly man was Crown Prince—Xiao Yuling .
"Your Highness . " Jing yue was stunned for a moment before extending her respect . Look, she did learn something in the etiquette school .
Xiao Yuling was startled at her movement and a glimmer of light flashed through his black eyes . Of course, he recognized the man who stood respectfully beside Jing Yue . It was Xing Er, the Ninth Imperial Uncle’s bodyguard . And this girl appeared at the Mansion of Prince, her ident.i.ty was obvious .
“You must be the Imperial Concubine of my Ninth Imperial Uncle, Lady Jing Yue . ” Xiao Yuling looked at her with a smile .
Jing Yue nodded .
“When did you get home?” Xiao Chen approached her at this time and looked at her with soft eyes .
“I’ve just arrived . ” Jing Yue turned to Xiao Chen and then looked at Xiao Yuling, “I should go back to Lotus Garden and leave you to discuss businesses . ” She smiled at them and was about to leave .
“Don’t . Crown Prince is going back to the palace . And I also have something to tell you . ” Xiao Chen shook his head and stood beside Jing Yue; then he took her small hand naturally .
“Ah?” Jing Yue didn’t think there was anything wrong with Xiao Chen’s action, but Xiao Yuling was stunned by this . Though he had heard rumors in the palace that the Ninth Imperial Uncle and his Imperial Concubine were a happy couple, he never took them seriously, because in his mind, the Ninth Imperial Uncle would never put anyone into his heart . So he never imagined that the Ninth Imperial Uncle could treat anyone so softly like now .
Even a woman!
“Yes, I should go now . ” There was some implication in Xiao Yuling’s eyes . He smiled at this couple and then left with his servant’s escort . Jing Yue frowned at his unsteady footsteps and thought, ‘The Crown Prince does look very sick . ’
