After Being Kidnapped by the Crown Prince - Chapter 251
~End of chapter 250
Ming Zhu’s eyelashes seemed to be dyed with a thin layer of water mist, her eyelashes were slightly trembling, and her expression looked a little confused, as if she did not understand the meaning of his words, she murmured: “What?”
Zhao Zhi stared at her clearer and more transparent than water eyes, and swallowed the acidic taste in his numb throat. He remained silent for a moment, and then lifted his hand over her cheeks, before squeezing out the words from his throat: “Did he ……”
Did he touch you or not.
Chapter 251
(90.2)
Did he touch you or not.
Zhao Zhi deeply inhaled two breaths of cold air, feeling as if two sharp knives were cutting his throat, drawing blood, and he was unable to say aloud the next words of his question.
Although Zhao Zhi knew that Ming Zhu in the past probably did not have a lot of romantic love for him, but at least back then, she did not resist him like she did now, and start crying tears non-stop when he slightly touched her.
He really couldn’t help but overthink about it.
But in fact, if Zhu Zhu and Wei Chiyu really did everything in those two years, he could not do anything about it anyway: “Nothing, sleep.”
Ming Zhu’s expression looked tired, and she didn’t care about him, turning his back to him.
Zhao Zhi gradually calmed down the heat under his belly, pulled her shoulders to him and hugged her to sleep.
The next day, Ming Zhu noticed that the opera actors had been changed. Although the make up on their faces was still very heavy, Ming Zhu was able to tell.
She pointed at the people on the stage and asked, “Why the people have been changed?”
The leader of the troupe got a look from the intendant, and didn’t dare to speak out of turn. He wiped the sweat that couldn’t help but break out on his forehead, and said, “The play is different today, so the people have changed.”
Ming Zhu seriously said: “I still like that person from yesterday.”
He was a good looking man, very neat.
The intendant Lin’s heart suddenly jumped in his chest. It was fortunate that he had changed the people today, or this matter would not end well.
The intendant Lin smiled brightly, and eluded the topic.
Ming Zhu then said: “Next time, I want to watch yesterday’s play again.”
The intendant Lin had a headache, and he could only lie for the moment: “Yes, yes, yes.”
The crown prince was already very unhappy that yesterday that opera actor had showed his face in front of her. If he knew that the crown princess had kept the person in her mind, he was only going to be even more unhappy.
This matter wasn’t difficult to handle, at most he only had to change the theater troupe.
Ming Zhu listened to the performance until she felt sleepy. It was a hot summer day, the cool wind was blowing from the platform in the pavilion, swaying her light sleeves. She yawned, and lazily leaned against the chair, with eyes half squinted as if she was going to fall asleep.
A little maidservant walked up to her and gently reminded, “Crown princess, the wind is strong besides the platform, how about going back to the room to sleep?”
Ming Zhu raised her eyelids, “It’s fine, it’s cooler when the wind blows.”
The little maidservant hesitated to say something, “Your health is not good ……”
Ming Zhu interrupted her, “I won’t die.”
The little maidservant shut her mouth, not daring to advice her again.
Ming Zhu slowly fell asleep for more than half an hour, when she opened her eyes again, the people singing on the stage had long since been sent out of the residence. Ming Zhu casually asked what time it was, and then asked, “Has Xiaoman finished her class?”
A three year old child, whose speech was not even very clear, already had a teacher teaching her how to read words.
The maidservant replied, “The little junzhu’s teacher hasn’t left yet.”
Hearing this, Ming Zhu was a little irritated, and the corners of her mouth pursed straight: “Let’s go over and take a look.”
The teacher who was teaching the little junzhu to read words was a young man, who had written a few eye-opening political essays during the past few years, and his articles were really written with a high level of skill. To have him teach a small child was also truly making a mountain out of a molehill.
Especially since the little junzhu’s personality was simply exactly the same as the crown prince’s.
Cold and uncaring.
She was also unwilling to listen to him seriously.
The man actually had quite a headache, after teaching her for more than half a month, the little junzhu could now only read a few simple words. He could not be considered a strict teacher, and to a three year old child, it could only be said that his teaching was entertainment, but even so, the little junzhu still could not recognize her own name, so today the class had been dragged until this late.
Ming Zhu aggressively barged in, her daughter was obediently sitting on a chair, holding a brush in her hand, spinning it to play.
Qi Cheng did not know Ming Zhu, but looking at her appearance and dress, he immediately guessed her identity and greeted her with a bow.
Ming Zhu picked up her daughter. Even if she was angry, her speech was soft and not offensive at all, “Sir, although I don’t know how to teach, but I also know that we should combine work and rest, she’s only three years old, and she’s not a genius, what can she understand?”
Qi Cheng said, “The little junzhu is gifted, she’s a good seedling.”
Ming Zhu didn’t want to hear such words, she felt that it was outrageous to have such a young child learn to read words for four hours every day.
Even if it was to start her education, it should be done in a gradual manner.
Ming Zhu’s face turned somber, “I’ll have the teacher be escorted back.”
Qi Cheng could see that she was now angry, he thought for a moment and then said, “If the crown princess is distressed for the child, you can go talk to the crown prince.”
“I got it.”
“This subject will leave first.”
