Chapter 523
As soon as Situ Yuan agreed, he strode out.
His movements were very graceful, but his back inexplicably gave off the look of someone fleeing in panic.
Situ Yuan was complaining in his heart when he heard Yang Tao ask, "Cousin, do you know what dignity is?"
His heart tightened, and he quickly put on a stern face: "I don't know either, but you can go ask the teacher now."
Yang Tao had no choice but to ask the teacher.
As soon as he left, Situ Yuan stopped reading and asked someone to copy the remaining books. Then he quickly took people to the Imperial Garden, intending to pick some beautiful flowers to bring back and give to Xie Ying.
He had just chosen Xie Tang as his study partner. If he didn't bring some gifts for Xie Ying, who knew how that girl would deal with him!
Thank you.
"Ah!"
Xie Ying rubbed her nose in frustration and looked around suspiciously.
[What's going on? My nose suddenly feels itchy. Is someone plotting against me again?]
Xie Rou, who was standing by, was so frightened when she heard her words that she ran to Tu Jiaojiao to report the news, fearing that another bad guy was going to harm Xie Ying.
After hearing her report, Tu Jiaojiao became nervous and ran to tell Xie Xiu.
So Xie Xiu lost interest in reading and started wondering who wanted to harm Xie Ying this time.
The family was nervous for a long time, and they were still thinking about this matter until Situ Yuan came to visit again with gifts.
Xie Ying was a little surprised when she saw Situ Yuan: [Why is this guy here again? ]
Situ Yuan quickly said, "I just went to the palace and picked out some beautiful flowers. I thought Yingying would like them, so I brought them back for her."
Xie Ying narrowed her eyes and looked at him suspiciously: [Something's wrong! If someone shows kindness without any reason, he's either a traitor or a thief! This guy suddenly came to give me flowers, could he be plotting behind my back?]
Situ Yuan suddenly felt guilty.
He knew that this girl would definitely think so!
He looked at Xie Ying sincerely, without a trace of guilt on his face, and continued, "By the way, my uncle asked me to go to the palace to attend classes starting tomorrow. I chose Brother Tang as my study partner, and he has to go to class with me."
Xie Ying's eyes instantly turned dangerous: [I was wondering why you suddenly sent me flowers, so it's because of this!]
She glared at Situ Yuan unhappily, but did not refuse.
Since the emperor has agreed, he has to go unless Xie Tang pretends to be sick.
Pretending to be sick was obviously not a good idea, and being Situ Yuan's study companion was also a good job.
Anyway, Yang Tao has a good temper and has Situ Yuan to protect him, so Xie Ying is not worried at all that her brother will be bullied.
If someone is really blind and dares to bully her brother, she can bully him back quietly!
Xie Ying looked at Xie Xiu and Tu Jiaojiao again. They were obviously a little surprised, but Xie Xiu quickly agreed and asked Situ Yuan what he needed to pay attention to when entering the palace.
Situ Yuan directly let Ms. Zhou speak. When she was almost done, he quickly asked to leave to prevent Xie Ying from continuing to glare at him.
After they left, Tu Jiaojiao, who had been worried the whole time, asked Xie Xiu, "Do you really want to let Tang'er enter the palace and be Situ Yuan's study companion? Will it be dangerous?"
Xie Xiu smiled and comforted her: "Empress Chen is dead, and now in the harem, apart from the Empress Dowager, Concubine Jiang is the only one in power.
Tang'er was just a study partner to Situ Yuan, not the only little prince in the palace. Even if someone wanted to fight for power, it would have little to do with Tang'er.
That little prince is one year younger than Tang'er, and his study companions are also a group of children, so there's nothing to worry about."
Tu Jiaojiao agreed. Not to mention Situ Yuan, she also had her uncle secretly helping her in the palace, so he would definitely not let Tang'er get into any trouble.
So she stopped worrying and even prepared some good clothes for her son so that he wouldn't look too shabby when he entered the palace.
It just so happened that Xie Ying was conferred the title of county princess a few days ago, and the palace rewarded her with a lot of fine materials.
She had asked the embroiderer at home to make a nice set of clothes for her son, but because the material was too good, she didn't let her son wear it to school.
