C62 Again

When Chiang Luoyu heard Chou Yue's worried voice, he looked up with a smile. Facing the moonlight above his head, he said calmly, "He has to leave first. Bring the food over, I'm a bit hungry."

It would be great if he didn't get angry.

Seeing her son's reaction, Chou Yue knew that she had guessed correctly. She could not help but smile and quickly replied, "Yes, Your Highness."

Chiang Luoyu's smile deepened as he held the stone in his hand tightly and walked back into the house.

"That's right, Chou Yue, find me a red thread."

Just as Chou Yue was about to serve the dishes, she heard him and was slightly startled. She subconsciously asked, "Red String of Fate? "What do you want the Red String of Fate for, son?"

Chiang Luoyu was holding the stone in his hand with a faint smile on his lips. His eyes became very gentle: "I told you to look for it, then look for it. Why are you talking so much?"

Chou Yue stuck out her tongue and said with a smile, "Yes, this servant understands."

After Bai Minyu and Chiang Luoyu had made up their minds, a dozen or so days had passed, and the time of the Liu Steel Manor's Spring Festival was getting closer and closer. Madame Zhen and Madame Mu, who were in and out of the courtyard, were also very busy, especially on the second day of the Spring Festival.

Chiang Luoyu sat alone at the table, writing. Bai Minyu sat not far behind him on the arhat bed, reading a book of poems. The room was quiet, but it could be said to be peaceful and natural. When Chou Yue quietly entered the room and saw this scene, she couldn't help but reveal a knowing smile. She quietly walked to her son's side and began to grind the ink for him.

Chiang Luoyu held his breath as he finished writing. Then, he stretched his wrist and rested for a moment. His gaze landed on Maidservant, who was grinding the ink seriously. With a faint smile, he asked, "Is everything done?"

When Chou Yue heard this, she first paused for a moment. Then, she looked at Bai Minyu, who was sitting on the bed and raised his head upon hearing the sound. An awkward expression appeared on her face, as though she did not know how to reply.

Chiang Luoyu noticed her awkwardness. When he was about to speak, out of the corner of his eyes, he saw Bai Minyu stand up and put the book of poems into his sleeve. He was prepared to leave expressionlessly, so he couldn't help but smile.

"It's nothing. If Bai Minyu is smart, he would naturally not say what you said. Just say it."

The moment he said this, Bai Minyu, whose hands were about to touch the doorframe, paused for a moment. His clear and bright eyes glanced at him helplessly, and after hesitating for a moment, he retracted his hand. He turned around and went back to his bed to read.

When Chou Yue saw his son, Bai Minyhehe felt a little strange, but could not say what was weird, so he slightly put the matter down, and instead reported what he was about to say after entering the room just now. With a cautious and cautious expression, she said, "Prince, before dinner, I had Maidservant, who was urging his to control the guqin, go to the place where the guqin was placed. I really discovered that the guqin seemed to be missing one, and it was the best one. I heard that it is the young miss's favorite …"

"One less?" Chiang Luoyu's smile gradually deepened as his jade-like eyes drooped down, looking at himself as he wrote the black, yet dry word. His handsome face seemed to flash with a dark light, but it was unclear, "Today, you will go with Qinghong. Do you remember the rest of the zither?"

When Chou Yue heard this, she hurriedly nodded. "The crown prince has specially instructed me to remember every single one of them. That zither has a total of …"

"Just remember, don't tell me." Chiang Luoyu saw her silly look and thought to himself, just like that, he carelessly made Maidservant, and several days ago, she even teamed up with him to play with Qinghong, allowing Chiang Hui to successfully sneak into her trap. These few days, I heard that Chiang Hui always uses that Smooth and Fair Ointment … On the surface, it was hard to tell.

Thinking this, he subconsciously revealed a helpless smile. He took out a dark green bottle and another yellow jade bottle from his sleeve and handed them to Chou Yue. He looked at Maidservant indifferently and lowered his voice, saying, "Do you still remember what I said to you the other day?"

Chou Yue nodded again. "Your Highness, remember."

Seeing her nod, Chiang Luoyu's eyes became a bit more satisfied. He turned around and looked at Wu Tie, who was still reading with his head down, as if he hadn't heard anything. He then ordered her in a low voice.

"Wait until the sun shines tomorrow before you go to the zither room. Remember to dip the ointment from the dark green bottle into your handkerchief, and rub it onto the zither which the little girl has pointed out to you. Aside from the best guqin, the guqin which your younger cousin loves is fine, but remember to never touch your hand with the ointment." At that time, if you can see where my cousin's favorite zither is, then just sprinkle the medicinal powder in the Yellow Jade Bottle onto it.

Chou Yue didn't know what her master's series of strange orders were, but she could tell from Chiang Luoyu's words that the ointment in the dark green bottle was a very dangerous thing, and could even be poisonous. Her expression became a little nervous as she subconsciously muttered, "Your Highness, are you trying to..."

"Don't worry, that's just an itch medicine." Chiang Luoyu looked at her family's Maidservant's anxious expression and knew that she was scared. He couldn't help but feel a little more uneasy. For a moment, the expression in his eyes when he looked at Maidservant became complicated and his voice became deeper.

"It's just that the medicine won't go away for a while and will make people itch all over their body to the point that they can't stop."

When Chou Yue heard this and knew that it wasn't poison, she let out a long sigh of relief. She knew it wasn't right for her to question her master, but she was always worried. If she kept going like this, she wouldn't be able to sleep well, so she mustered up the courage to ask.

After hearing her master's reply, she stole a glance at her son with some uneasiness. She didn't see any dissatisfaction on his face, so she bowed and said, "This servant will follow your instructions."

"You can leave now. When it's time to set up the meal, you don't need to ask any further. Just bring it over." Chiang Luoyu half closed his eyes, his white and slender fingers nodded on the table in front of him. He ordered lightly, "Bai Minyu will leave after dinner today. Remember to prepare everything for him."

After Chou Yue left, Chiang Luoyu stood alone in front of the window. He looked at the dark sky, which was covered with stars, with an indescribable darkness in his eyes. He couldn't help but raise his hand and press his forehead.

Only when a pair of hands suddenly fell on his shoulders did he wake up from the darkness. His body was first subconsciously tense for a moment, then it seemed as if he remembered who the person behind him was, and then he slowly relaxed.

His voice was tired, but his expression was still light.

"Aren't you just reading a book?" Why are you here? "

Bai Minyu, who was standing behind him, lightly pinched his shoulder. His eyes, which were reflected in the candle, showed a hint of warmth. His voice was clear and cold, "If you're tired, then rest."

"It's still early, I'm not tired." Chiang Luoyu leaned his body against the back of the seat, his white fingers supported his forehead, and when he heard Wu Tie's voice, the smile on his lips instantly disappeared, leaving only a slightly tired face, "I'm just a little tired, I haven't thought of it yet."

"I didn't expect your Maidservant to be so unwilling." Bai Minyu stood behind him and observed his expression as she said softly, "She was only willing to act for you when you didn't tell her about the ointment."

"Why are you so smart? You really didn't fail to live up to that word 'Agility' of yours." He looked back at Bai Minyu, who was still dressed in white, standing behind him. A trace of curiosity flashed across his eyes, "Oh yeah, you seem to want to talk a lot today. Did something happen?"

Bai Minyu stood beside the candle flame, his fair face had completely lost its initial pale color. Although his face was expressionless, but when he looked through the light, he seemed to feel that Bai Minyu's current expression was very warm, and his words lacked the usual coldness: "I'm a bit worried about you."

Chiang Luoyu's heart skipped a beat when he heard that. He looked at Bai Minyu and smiled, "Everything is fine, what are you worried about?"

After saying this, he did not wait for Bai Minyu who was not far away from him to speak again. The corner of his mouth hooked up and a look of schadenfreude flashed past his eyes as he quickly said.

"I'm still worried about you, Bai Minyu. A few days ago, I heard that when you weren't paying attention, Lv Yi took advantage of the time and snitched on me, saying that you had fallen for me and wanted to use some tricky method to get me to put you in the house. "Thus, for the past few days, Lil 'Red kept spying on me, reminding me every single day that I was wearing filial piety. Instead, it was as if she was afraid that I would be bewitched by you until I didn't know anything, so she secretly took you, this Gemini, while no one else was paying attention."

Well, it's time for the twig again," he said.
