Chapter 121 Playing Under the Table
Chapter 121 Playing Under the Table
Unlike his previous reckless rush into the water to save people, Nan Yingzhi stretched out her hand, supported him in the air, and agreed naturally.
"I see that your Majesty is wearing a cloak in autumn, so I think you are a little weak. Today we need to choose a husband for the princess, and there are many procedures. Your Majesty, please get up quickly."
If Yun Ting hadn't been by his side, Yun Ji would have wanted to lift his hands from his waist and place them on Nan Yingzhi's palms to feel her warmth.
After all, he couldn't let Yun Ting notice, so he gritted his teeth and said politely, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
It seemed that they didn't look at each other, but the atmosphere was ambiguous. Yun Ting spoke up to show his presence: "Royal brother, why don't you see Yun Yan?"
Knowing that Yun Ting was staring at them, Nan Yingzhi didn't linger on Yun Ji for long, just a quick glance like a dragonfly touching the water.
"Today is her wedding day," she chuckled, teasing Yun Yan who was determined to dress up nicely, "She must be busy with her hair and hair, and the auspicious time has not yet arrived, Your Majesty, please wait a little longer."
"Oh, so," Yun Ting raised his foot and walked towards his seat, muttering, "She is really slow, unlike Lian Zhaoyi, who only takes a moment."
While Yun Ting was walking in front, Nan Yingzhi deliberately lagged behind him and exchanged glances with Yun Ji.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one dared to look up and meet her gaze, Nan Yingzhi lowered her eyes and focused her gaze on Yun Ji.
As if sensing something, Yun Ji raised his head cautiously, and by coincidence, his eyes met her smiling ones.
An inexplicable heat surged from his heart to his limbs. His slightly pale cheeks suddenly became red, as if the finishing touch to a painting, making it come alive.
Because there was a certain chance that Yun Ting would look back and notice their little movements, Nan Yingzhi had already stretched out her finger, wanting to hold Yun Ji's, but suddenly retracted it.
She hooked her finger, as if guiding Yunji to look in the direction she pointed.
Yun Ji obediently looked over and saw the purse and sachet hanging around her waist.
The style and pattern looked familiar, and he took a closer look and found that they were the two he had made.
Before he could even blush, Yun Ji's attention was attracted by Nan Yingzhi's nimble fingers.
The tips of her thumb and index finger overlapped, and the other three fingers were bent toward her palm, as if she was making a gesture.
Yun Ji had not learned much magic from the imperial teacher, so he seemed to understand it but not quite.
Seeing Nan Yingzhi's curved eyebrows and gentle smile at him, the bud in his heart suddenly blossomed.
They were packed together, filling up the originally empty heart, even making it seem a little bloated.
Covering his fast-beating heart with his chest, Yun Ji felt more and more that Nan Yingzhi must have inherited the true teachings of the national master.
Otherwise, how could he be so unable to resist?
A voice broke his thoughts: "Ah Lian, what are you standing there for?"
Yun Ji looked over and saw Yun Ting sitting in the first seat. He pointed to a chair for him and said, "Sit down."
Sitting down obediently, Yun Ji was surprised to find that, whether it was a deliberate arrangement by the people in the Ministry of Rites or what, there was something strange about his and Nan Yingzhi's positions.
On the surface, they are facing each other, but there is a long distance between them.
In fact, when he stretched his legs, he saw Nan Yingzhi frowning and looking down.
After confirming that the mischievous foot was Yunji's and not someone else's, Nan Yingzhi slowly moved her boots and rubbed them against his embroidered shoes.
Yun Ting only saw the calmness on their faces and had no idea that they were doing these things behind the scenes.
Seeing that Yunyan hadn't arrived yet, he turned to Yunji and said, "Ah Lian, let's go out of the palace and take a look. How do you feel? Are you happy?"
"Your Majesty," Yun Ji was playing with Nan Yingzhi under the table. With the veil between them, a bold blush appeared on her face and her voice trembled, "Your Majesty, I am very happy."
Seeing that he was full of energy and not as dull as he was in the palace, Yun Ting nodded with satisfaction: "If you like, I will take you out often. Of course, the premise is that you have to be obedient and don't make me angry."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yun Ji said whatever soft words he could to meet Nan Yingzhi. He looked at Yun Ting with gentle eyes, like a pond of water. "I will be a good boy in the future and will not contradict Your Majesty again."
Being looked at like this by Yun Ji, Yun Ting's heart melted. He looked away helplessly: "I care about you very much, don't be ungrateful."
Seeing Yun Ting saying "Look how good I am to you, why don't you kneel down and thank me" over and over again, Nan Yingzhi sneered in her heart.
Isn’t this the so-called PUA?
And he said it in such a high-sounding way.
After a long wait, Yun Yan finally arrived, but for some reason, she looked a little depressed.
"Your Majesty, may your Majesty live forever," she bowed to Yun Ting, then turned around and knelt towards Nan Yingzhi, "Your Majesty, may your Majesty live forever."
Asking her to stand up, Yun Ting looked puzzled: "Today is a good day, why are you dressed so exquisitely, but look so uninterested? Have you been wronged somewhere?"
The image of Lou Yi anxiously leaving and saying he wanted to get some information flashed through Yun Yan's mind, and a trace of bitterness arose in her heart.
She shook her head and forced a smile: "No, I just don't know who will win today and make a marriage contract with Yan'er, so I am a little anxious."
"If I were to say, Admiral Yang Ling is quite good. His background and appearance are both worthy of you." Not wanting to just sing a one-man show, Yun Ting turned his head and looked at Nan Yingzhi, "What do you think, my brother?"
Distracted by her interaction with Yun Ji, Nan Yingzhi only heard Yun Ting mention Yang Ling and didn't notice his compliments on Yang Ling's appearance.
It’s hard to say directly that Yang Ling’s ability is not that good, so she was vague.
"There are many capable people in the Four Realms. Yang Ling, maybe... Ahem, this matter is not yet certain. Let's wait and see."
