Chapter 86: When Youre Below Someone Elses Roof (2/2)
Or was it that he had an objection with this dish, or that he was curious about that method of cooking?
Everyone made all sorts of conjectures, but some were pretty discontent. In reality, everyone had questions, but they all wanted to ask after eating this thing.
Xi Qiulin thought the same, however, he was aware of his uncle’s impatient nature. Thus, he said, “Then let’s just finish asking before tasting this delicacy!”
Upon hearing that, San Yu’s facial color changed slightly. She had calculated the time just right. She had planned for the dishes in front to be consumed first before she revealed that unusual dish at the perfect moment. If the time was delayed…
As she thought about it, she looked towards Tang Doudou who was spacing out. She couldn’t help but shake her head. What did it matter if her style of stir-frying was good?
What was important was still the taste of the food!
Tang Doudou retrieved her gaze and asked Xi Qiuyue in reply, “Wonder what comments wang ye has?”
“Ben wang wishes to ask lady, what’s your surname, what’s your given name, where’s your home, how many siblings are in your family?” Xi Qiuyue thought that since he had already spoken this far, Li Xueyi would definitely understand what he meant. He was trying to make it so Li Xueyi would figure out the difficulty and retreat to avoid defeat rather than do something dumb…
Xi Qiuyue’s words caused everyone to be stunned. This Sangfroid Prince really had that intention!?
“Is wang ye investigating registered residence?” Tang Doudou, who was made speechless, blurted this out. Only after she finished speaking did she recall that the person in front of her was a wang ye. Though she was an Alliance Head, she was still just a common citizen. It would have been fine if only Xi Qiuyue was present, but the main problem was that there was an emperor here as well. So after she spoke, she hastily changed her tone. “What I mean is, wonder what wang ye is asking about these things for?”
“Audacious lowly person! You actually dared to use ‘I’ in front of wang ye!” Right after she finished speaking, an angry female voice exploded. Tang Doudou looked towards Xi Qiuyue’s side and saw a young girl about fifteen years old in a pink dress standing with her hand on her hip as she pointed towards her while shouting.
Feels like she forgot to check the almanac before she headed out?
Ever since she entered this Bai Residence, there’s been an endless amount of people causing trouble for her. But she wasn’t even familiar with them?
Not to mention, she even changed disguises! What exactly did these people want?
The young girl shouted again when Tang Doudou didn’t speak. “What are you spacing out over there for!? Wang ye is asking you a question. Hurry and reply!”
If you can’t use ‘I’, then does that mean you have to use ‘this servant’?
Fine, as she was under someone else’s roof, she couldn’t not lower her head!
Tang Doudou glanced at Xi Qiulin who was sitting right in the center. Suddenly, her expression rapidly changed and she cried out in a panic, “Wang ye, please spare my life ah, please spare me! This servant came from the countryside and doesn’t know the customs. Hope wang ye da ren, being so magnanimous, won’t hold this against this servant!”
After she finished speaking, she even lost her head out of fear and ducked behind Meng Yu. Her little face was currently paler than white.
Her acting was actually quite convincing. Baili Yu’s eyes were half-closed, but he had been paying attention to Tang Doudou this entire time. When he saw her facial color change so quickly, he couldn’t help but chuckle. He felt quite interested in watching how she planned to deal with the rest of the events.
Xi Qiuyue was stunned a little stupid by her sudden transformation. “Li… Li… don’t worry, ben wang has no intention of blaming you.”
Tang Doudou sighed in relief and patted her chest to calm lingering fears. Then she said, “Wang ye, you’re such a good person!”
Following that, she glanced at the young girl that had abruptly stood up and shrink backwards a little in fear. “That Miss is so scary!”
“Lowly person, what nonsense are you saying!? See if I don’t utterly destroy your mouth!” That young girl was incomparably overbearing and directly stood up from her seat to walk forward.
Bai Lianhua who was sitting next to her hastily reached out to pull her. “Lianyun…”
“Lianhua jiejie, don’t stop me. That lowly slave seriously don’t know etiquette! This miss must give her a proper lesson! To let her know what etiquette means!”
Bai Lianhua continued to persuade her. “The Sangfroid Prince already said that it was fine. Also, that lady belongs to the Heng Xuan Chamber of Commerce, Baili gege will definitely find someone to teach her etiquette. You shouldn’t get too angry over this, it’s beneath your dignity…”
Although this was what Bai Lianhua said, her eyes were filled with laughter. She had never liked this Bai Lianyun. Every since childhood, Bai Lianyun always felt herself of higher status than her and had given her quite a lot of attitude relying on the fact that her father was the current Prime Minister. Luckily, she was simple-minded. She only had to slightly instigate her and Bai Lianyun would move according to her plans.
Earlier, she saw Xi Qiuyue stammer for half the day but still didn’t get to the main point. In that confrontation, it had actually been Tang Doudou who was more aggressive, so she had pulled Bai Lianyun over to say a couple words. Then, Bai Lianyun immediately exploded and stood up without thinking to berate Tang Doudou.
As Bai Lianhua looked at Bai Yu and the Prime Minister’s faces, she silently applauded the marvelous scene.
To give birth to such a brainless girl, aiy…
As Bai Lianhua rejoiced in their misfortune, she pulled Bai Lianyun to sit back down. She thought that now that the topic has been opened, Xi Qiuyue should finally know what to do, right?
The Imperial Court and the martial arts circles were existences that could not coexist. As long as Tang Doudou’s true identity was revealed, based on a crime of unclear intentions, His Majesty definitely won’t let him off!
Baili gege was also someone of the Imperial Household. He definitely won’t offend the Emperor just for a Tang Doudou. When that time comes, even if Tang Doudou manages to escape, there’s no way the Emperor would allow a person charged with a crime to marry his Imperial Uncle.
She had never expected to encounter His Majesty here this time. It must be known that His Majesty has never stepped out of the palace doors after he ascended the throne. Now that she had been able to run into him the moment he came out, didn’t that mean she definitely had destiny with Baili gege?
Bai Lianhua thought everything through happily. As she glanced at Bai Lianyun’s angrily puffed up cheeks, she remarked in her heart: She wants to marry the Sangfroid Prince with this level of intelligence? She seriously overestimates her capabilities!
