Chapter: 077 out of 513 – The crown prince’s playboy nature (2)

However, she couldn’t have a dispute with the person under the covered corridor . He was the future emperor . She could only agreeably say, “The marquis is merely helping his master with worries and difficulties . He doesn’t count as someone below one person and above a thousand others . When Your Highness becomes master of the world, the marquis will also do a good job a.s.sisting you . ”

The crown prince was stunned for a moment . He carefully pondered these words, then he suddenly laughed loudly . “I see that the rumors are true . Nie Sangyu is wretchedly in love with Marquis Moyu . Your every word was said for your marquis’s benefit . It really makes a person feel jealous . ”

Ji Man continued to keep her head lowered and didn’t respond, but she couldn’t stop her expression from becoming slightly colder .

Zhao Zhe took another step closer to her . His lips were lightly curved . He said with a hint of improperness, “If there’s a time when you can show me the same type of concern and care, that would be wonderful . ”

“Your Highness, please conduct yourself with dignity . ” Ji Man’s brows were creased . She wasn’t able to retreat any further . She decided that she would simply push open the doors to the main hall and tell old madame and her aunt that the crown prince had come .

But, Zhao Zhe smiled and took

a step back . He placed the hand warmer with a golden dragon pattern that he had been holding into Nie Sangyu’s hand . “You’ve been standing outside for so long . Don’t let yourself freeze . ”

(T/N: Below is a picture of a hand warmer . )

This was the scene that Ning Yuxuan saw when he arrived at the ting yu xuan . Nie Sangyu was leaning against the wall . The crown prince was standing very close to her . All of the servants were standing far away from them with their heads lowered and pretending they couldn’t see or hear anything . They didn’t dare to make a sound .

For an inexplicable reason, he felt slightly angry . Ning Yuxuan strode over to them and pulled Nie Sangyu behind him . With an expressionless face, he said to the crown prince, “Why do you have the free time to come here? The emperor had even recently asked about the crown prince’s a.s.signments . ”

Zhao Zhe hadn’t expected that his imperial father would let out Ning Yuxuan so quickly . This scene was also slightly awkward . And so, he quietly coughed and said, “I came here to pay respects to the n.o.ble consort . I heard that she hasn’t been feeling well lately . I happened to see Sangyu and we ended up talking . ”

He even called her Sangyu? Ji Man’s expression was very ugly . Ning Yuxuan’s expression wasn’t any better . He squeezed her

her hand tighter and said, “Then, crown prince, you should go inside . I have words that I want to say with Sangyu . ”

“Okay . ” The crown prince lightly smiled and returned to his elegant and graceful bearing . After having a servant announce his arrival, he walked into the main hall .

Ning Yuxuan pulled Nie Sangyu along as he walked further outside .

Ji Man staggered as she followed him . If her stride was too big, she might accidentally step on this lord’s heel . She could only stumble along and almost fell . Although Ning Yuxuan’s expression was composed, he was walking very quickly . He seemed slightly angry .

On a secluded palace path, he finally let go of her . He calmly said, “Don’t get too close to the crown prince . He has a fondness for beautiful women . When he has the urge, no one can stop him . ”

Ji Man nodded and threw the hand warmer she had been holding onto a patch of gra.s.s in the pa.s.sing . From today’s interaction, she could see that the crown prince had a playboy nature . He would want to fool around with any woman that he saw . He was very dangerous to be around .

“This servant will do her best to avoid him,” she said .
