Chapter 22: The Palace Will Be Shy

  This palace will be shy

  All she saw was a handsome and elegant young man standing in front of her.

  A white silk robe with intricate embroidery, a wide flat silk belt with jade inlaid at the waist, adorned with jade, setting off that slender figure's elegant and refined demeanor, clean and noble.

  A head of raven-black hair cascaded down her back, with a hint of ink on her shoulders, tied up casually with a golden silk hairband, setting off that face like a crown jewel, skin as smooth as congealed fat, worthy of being called the unparalleled treasure of the He family!

  The most dazzling thing is still her beautiful eyes, shining like stars. When she turns around, the light ripples, revealing a few points of cleverness and cunning. Under her lovely nose are her moist and rosy lips, which are now lightly raised, with red lips and white teeth, smiling brightly.

  Mingming was a beautiful and elegant woman, but after changing into men's clothing, she immediately became a handsome young man with a refined demeanor. Moreover, after Han Xixi skillfully used an eyebrow pencil to transform her delicate eyebrows into sword-like brows, her originally tender face suddenly gained a few more points of unyielding heroic spirit!

  She looks elegant in women's clothing, and handsome in men's clothing. No wonder that when Xue Xiao Ran saw Han Xi Tong wearing a man's outfit, her eyes sparkled with delight. Moreover, there was an added hint of indulgent joy on the corners of her mouth.

  "Hehe, Tong Er, you look great in men's clothing!"

  "Haha, of course! With a good foundation, anything looks great!"

  As for Xiang Xiao Ran's praise, Han Xi Tong was not pretentious at all, his eyebrows and eyes were full of spirit, but there was a hint of "old yellow selling melons" in his tone, which made Ruo Er and Xiao De Zi standing beside him cover their mouths and giggle.

  Han Xi Tong didn't mind seeing him, but instead looked at Xun Xiao Ran who had changed into casual clothes and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

  She only wore a simple sky blue silk cheongsam with white jade belt around her waist, accompanied by a sachet and an exquisitely carved 'Ran' character made of top-grade sheep fat jade.

  Her raven hair was tied up with a jade crown, her sword-like eyebrows slanted upwards, her phoenix eyes were full of emotions, her posture was natural and elegant, as if she was a startled swan, making people feel that they couldn't get enough of looking at her!

  When Xuan Xiao saw Han Xi's gaze fall on himself, and the sparkling light of surprise and admiration in his eyes, he felt a thrill in his heart. His face turned red with embarrassment as he lowered his slightly flushed face, which made Han Xi want to tease him even more. He couldn't help but reach out and pinch Xuan Xiao's rosy cheeks, laughing and saying: "Hehe, Xiao is really cute!"

  What a shy little kid, so innocent!

  Han Xi Tong sighed in her heart, but had no idea that her words fell into the ears of You Er and Xiao Dezi, like a loud thunder, scaring them to the point where they almost lost their souls.

  After all, with their understanding of His Highness, what he hates the most is when others say that he's cute. He says that "cute" is only used to describe girls.

  I still remember the last time a palace maid inadvertently called the prince "cute" and was slapped in the face by him. Since then, no one who serves the prince dares to say that he is cute again.

  So now, after hearing Han Xi Tong's words, both You Er and Xiao De Zi were frightened pale, their hearts trembling with fear, thinking that the prince would definitely be angry, and couldn't help but sympathize with Han Xi Tong.

  Who would have known that just as they were praying for Han Xi Tong in their hearts, the expected thing did not happen, but instead.

  "Jing'er, don't say such things about me, I'll be embarrassed!"

  Her voice was soft and gentle, with a hint of shyness that couldn't be expressed. Paired with her coy expression, she looked like a new bride on her wedding night, answering with affection. The most captivating thing was her pair of phoenix eyes, which were slightly narrowed in annoyance, staring at Han Xi's pupils. Her rose-colored lips were bright red and inviting, as if tempting people.

  Looking at Xuan's usual calm and collected demeanor, it was even more astonishing to see Ruo Er and Xiao Dezi shocked, their faces pale and their lips trembling!

  At the same time, Han Xi Tong was also affirming in her heart that she was different from others in the emperor's mind!

  The palace is layered, the eaves are flying, and the golden light is completely different. On the main streets of the capital, it's not a loss to be under the sky, looking around, bustling and prosperous, people crowded like mountains and seas, luxurious cars and horses coming and going without end, on both sides of the street, shops are lined up, and there are countless teahouses and brothels, everywhere showing a scene of prosperity.

  They got on the horse carriage and left the palace, but because there were many people on the street, Han Xi Tong and his group got off the horse carriage as soon as they arrived at the street, planning to stroll around while it was still early, and then head to Prince's Lake to guess lantern riddles and admire flower lanterns around dusk.

  Because this time Xiang Xiao Ran was in disguise, she only brought along Yu'er dressed as a maid and Dezi dressed as a young servant.

  Of course, considering Xiang Xiao Ran's noble identity, every time she left the palace, there were always a few bodyguards following behind her to protect her safety. However, those bodyguards kept a distance and only appeared when Xiang Xiao Ran encountered danger.

  So all the way, Han Xi's eyes could boldly put down her emotions and have a good time shopping. After all, shopping is a woman's nature, especially when she sees everything on the street, she feels extremely fresh. So every time she arrives at a small stall, she will look around, but she just thinks it's fresh to pick up and take a look, without intending to buy it. However, she doesn't know that all the way, whatever she touches, Xiang Shao Ran will hint to Xiao De Zi to buy them all.

  So after a while, Rourou and Xiaodezi had more and more bags in their hands, tired like an ox.

  Until Han Xi had strolled for most of the day and was getting a bit tired, he looked up at the sky which still showed early signs of evening, so he casually found an inn near Taizi Lake, planning to go in and have a cup of tea to rest for a while.

  At this moment, because it's afternoon, there are many people chatting and drinking tea in the inn, so it's naturally bustling and noisy. Especially inside the inn, there is a storyteller named Huang Dahuan who tells new and interesting stories every day, his words are exquisite and extraordinary, attracting many guests to come and listen.

  However, when Han Xi Tong and Jing Xiao Ran walked into the inn, due to their outstanding appearance and noble aura, they immediately became the focus of everyone's attention. One by one, people gazed at them with astonished eyes, guessing which family's young master looked so exceptional.

  Even Huang Dahhan, who was originally talking about the book, shut up, and later, under pressure from others, he continued to describe what had just happened in vivid detail.

  But the two of them didn't pay any attention to the strange and admiring glances from others, they just sat down, casually picked up a few dim sum to eat and drank some tea to moisten their throats. Planning to rest for a while before heading to Taizi Lake for a stroll.

  Who knew, Han Xi Tong had just sat down for a short while, and his attention was immediately drawn to the man reading books on one side.

  However, upon hearing what Huang Dahhan said at this moment, her pretty face immediately sank!
