Don't disturb me, I won't be a concubine

Chapter 174: Unique Punishment

Ji Bai pushed open the study door and Yunling went in carrying a tray.

She put the bowl on the desk and said under Cui Qiyan's doubtful gaze: "I heard that you drank alcohol, so I boldly changed the tea to sobering soup. The prince will feel better after drinking it."

"You are indeed brave enough to make your own decisions." Cui Qiyan pretended to be angry.

Yunling quickly lowered her head and admitted her mistake, "I know my mistake, so I will give you another tea..."

She reached out to pick up the bowl of hangover soup, but unexpectedly it was empty. When she looked up, she saw that Cui Qiyan had taken the bowl away and was still blowing on it.

Doesn't he want to drink tea?

"I don't want tea anymore," Cui Qiyan said quietly, as if he could hear her inner thoughts, "Get something else."

"Your Majesty, what else do you want to drink?" Didn't the hangover soup already exist in his hand? Didn't he intend to drink it?

"Not for drinking."

"Whatever the Crown Prince wants, I will go down and prepare it right now." Yunling really couldn't guess it. Anyway, she just went to prepare whatever he said.

Cui Qiyan finished the hangover soup slowly and put the bowl back.

"I want you to make me a purse."

Yunling looked at him blankly, "Your Majesty, what you're talking about is... your purse?" Why did it come to this again?

"You heard me right, I need you to do it yourself."

"But this servant is not good at female beauty, and has never made a purse." Yunling said truthfully, asking her to do needlework, wouldn't this make things difficult for her.

"You don't know how?" In Cui Qiyan's understanding, women are more or less good at needlework.

Yunling nodded hurriedly, "I don't dare to deceive the prince. I really don't know how to do it. If you want money, why not tell Sister Luoshui that her embroidery skills are excellent."

"You did something wrong, why should I look for you?

other people? Cui Qiyan raised his eyebrows, "I won't do it just right. This is more meaningful." "

This punishment was really unique. Yunling begged in a low voice with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, why don't you give me a different punishment? I really don't know how to embroider those flowers and plants."

How stupid! Cui Qiyan took out a piece of paper, quickly wrote two big characters on it, and then threw it to her, "If you don't know how to embroider, can you embroider characters?"

Yunling tilted her head and looked, "You'an?"

Hearing his own words come out of her mouth, Cui Qiyan's heart felt as if a feather had brushed over him. Now he knew the reason for this strange feeling and said calmly: "It's my calligraphy. This is what is embroidered on my wallet."

"My slave made a mistake." She said that it felt familiar. It turned out to be his name. She seemed to have heard someone call him that a long time ago.

Even though Yunling is not a local, she also knows that only people who are familiar and close to him can call him a man. What she said just now was really disrespectful.

She then thought that a purse was a personal item, so it would be inappropriate to have someone's name embroidered on it.

"This servant dare not embroider your name on the embroidery, Crown Prince."

"What are you afraid of? The things are given to me. I will embroider whatever I tell you to do. Otherwise, why don't you also embroider some Ruyi cloud patterns on it?" Cui Qiyan was a little annoyed.

Yunling didn't dare to delve into the word "ye", so she shrank her neck and said, "I obey the prince's instructions, but my hands are clumsy and it will take several days to make it."

"There's no rush, just do it slowly," Cui Qiyan said and then added, "Is five days enough for you?"

If you don't give her a deadline, you don't know when she will go.

Yunling nodded with difficulty, "I'll do my best, slave."

Cui Qiyan turned around

There was a smile on his face that he didn't even notice.

Late at night, Cui Qiyan returned to his bedroom to go to bed, and Yunling and others also exited and returned to their respective residences.

"Yunling, are you worried?" On the way, Meng Dong saw that she was silent and looked worried.

Yunling looked back and saw that there was no one else around, so she whispered to her: "The Crown Prince thought I was making my own decisions, so he punished me for embroidering purses. You also know that I am the worst at this."

"Huh?" Meng Dong, who also had a headache with needlework, looked sympathetic, "What have you done to make the crown prince punish you with this?"

"The prince asked for tea, but I gave him sobering soup instead." Yunling said dejectedly.

"Just because of this trivial matter?" Meng Dong was surprised and then said matter-of-factly, "The prince said that he is right, he must be really angry."

Yunling thought to herself that he didn't look really angry, otherwise he wouldn't have drank all the sobering soup. He was probably punishing her with a big warning to make her remember. It's just that she doesn't know how to be a popular girl, so when she gets a small punishment, it becomes a big punishment.

"I can't help you with making a purse," Meng Dong could only worry, "Why did you change your appearance for the prince?"

Yunling regretted it, "I heard from Ji Bai that the prince drank some wine outside, and it was getting late, so it was really not suitable for drinking tea, so... If I had known this, I should have obeyed his orders honestly. .”

"It's all Ji Bai who tricked you!" Meng Dong concluded angrily.

"I can't blame him for this. It was my own decision."

"It's his fault. If he didn't say that the prince was drunk, why would you give him hangover soup instead? You obviously think about the prince. Both you and the prince are right. He is the one who is wrong!" Meng Dong gritted his teeth and said

The fault was all placed on Ji Bai's head, and he was quite ready to have a fight with him.

Yunling pulled her back and said, "Don't embarrass him for me. He can't help. The prince told me to do it myself. I can just figure it out myself."

When the two returned to the house, Meng Dong felt worried for her, "Then I'll help you with other tasks, and you can embroider slowly."

Yunling nodded, "Don't worry, the prince asked me to embroider the purse just as a punishment for me. I won't use it. If I don't do it well, it should be fine."

Maybe when she was ready, he would change hands and throw it away. But even if the final destination of the purse was really like this, she had to finish the embroidery with all her heart, and she didn't dare to fool the prince.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's take a rest early." Yunling picked up the basin and went out to fetch water.

To make a purse, you need to buy fabrics, embroidery thread, etc. Cui Qiyan specially allowed Yunling to go out to buy them last night.

Early the next morning, Yunling greeted Luo Shui and prepared to go out.

“Yunling, wait—”

When Yunling heard someone calling her, she turned around and saw Bai Ying walking towards her in a hurry.

When someone arrived, Yunling asked, "What do you want from me?"

Bai Ying has a cold temperament, and she is not someone who takes the initiative to make friends with others. Although the two have been working together for almost a year, apart from necessary exchanges, they usually don't have much interaction.

"I heard that you are leaving the house, can you help me bring something to someone?" Bai Ying was a little nervous when she said this, and she must have made a lot of determination when she said this.

Yunling thought it wouldn't be difficult to bring something with her, so she agreed.

"Then just wait for me and I'll get the things." Seeing her promise, Bai Ying showed a rare smile on her face and turned around eagerly to go back.

"Don't worry, be careful

Some, I'll wait for you. Yunling said to her back.

Not long after, Bai Ying trotted back and handed a small bundle to Yun Ling.

Yunling took it and felt that it still held some weight, "Where are you going to send it? To whom?"

"Cailian in Baihua Tower."
