Seeing her coming out of the inner hall, Shuang Xi kept looking inside.
After looking around for a long time, Shen Yueji became impatient and patted her head. "What are you doing?"
Shuang Xi covered her head aggrievedly. "Your Highness, you're too bold. If I hadn't dutifully kept watch outside for you, what if someone who's not afraid of death broke in and saw Your Highness and the Prince Regent …"
She couldn't help but tease her. "Don't think too much. It's not what you see."
Shuang Xi curled her lips disapprovingly and chuckled. "Don't worry, Your Highness. I'm the most loyal to you. When I return to the General's Mansion, I won't tell Madam and the General about it."
Hearing this, Shen Yueji's face darkened completely. "You still want to tell them?"
Realizing what she had said, Shuang Xi quickly covered her mouth and swore. "No, no, Your Highness, don't get me wrong. I didn't mean that! I've prepared breakfast for you. It'll be ready soon. Your Highness, I'll go get some water to help you wash up! "
...
While Shen Yueji was wiping her face, she saw the man coming out with messy clothes.
When she saw Shuang Xi's expression, her mouth twitched. She didn't have time to speak.
"Your Highness, I've only got a basin of water for washing your hands and face. After you wash your face, you can use it."
Hearing this, Mo Wushang nodded his head and looked back at her with an appreciative gaze. "Alright."
Because he had knelt for an entire night, if one did not look closely, his posture when he walked out was no different from normal. However, Shuang Xi was a busybody. She had been staring at him, so naturally, she saw the man's movements.
She secretly patted her head.
The Regent must have been in one posture for too long, so his walking posture was a little strange. Alas …
Why didn't he change his posture with her Highness?
For example, her Highness sitting on top?
"Ahem —"
Shen Yueji took a sip of tea absent-mindedly. When she saw Shuang Xi's wretched expression, she suddenly coughed hard.
Seeing this, Mo Wushang frowned and hurriedly walked in front of her, patting her back.
"Your Highness … are you okay?"
Shuang Xi, who did not know how sinful she was, looked at her worriedly.
Shen Yueji rolled her eyes at her and said in annoyance, "When did His Majesty say we should depart?"
"Oh! His Majesty said that he would come to Niangniang's place after morning court. "
"After morning court?"
Shen Yueji was shocked and instinctively pushed the man behind her away. She looked out of the hall. The sky was about to brighten, and it wasn't too late for Feng Jiuqing to arrive.
She was just about to say something to chase Mo Wushang away.
"Don't worry, Your Ladyship. After the morning court session, His Majesty still has to make a trip to the Imperial Study. He has to give some instructions on some matters that he won't be in court for the next few days. I reckon that by the time he really arrives, the sun will already be high in the sky."
Shen Yueji let out a long breath and glanced at Shuang Xi. She complained, "Can't you just say everything in one go? I didn't prepare a lot of things, just a few sets of clothes. "
"Yes, Your Highness."
Shuang Xi responded respectfully, then turned around and went into the inner hall to prepare.
In the blink of an eye, only she and Mo Wushang were left in the huge Phoenix Perch Palace.
In the quiet air, it was so quiet that even the drop of a needle could be heard clearly.
She could feel the man's gaze on her, and she couldn't ignore it.
