Chapter 248 Che Che Come Chase Me
Chapter 248 Che Che Come Chase Me
"For me?" Mei Susu was stunned. She probably didn't expect Ming Ye to give her a gift.
Mingye was about to speak, but before she could open her mouth, Yueya's voice came from the corner: "Miss, you are here, I finally caught up with you."
Seeing someone coming, Mingye jumped onto the wall and said to Mei Susu, "I'll go to Chaoyang Palace to find you later."
Then he left.
Mingye thought that he could also say Happy New Year to Susu later, when it got dark and the palace was setting off fireworks.
Holding the golden ruyi, Mei Susu put it into her sleeve and turned around.
Just then Yueya arrived in front of her.
"Miss, what are you doing here? The Imperial Garden is over there."
The crescent pointed in another direction.
Mei Susu shook her head: "I remembered the wrong way. I was wondering why I was walking in the wrong direction."
Yueya smiled secretly. Her young master didn't like to go out for a walk, so it was inevitable that she would get lost. Fortunately, she came, otherwise it would be troublesome if the young master got lost.
The Imperial Garden was also hung with red lanterns and red silk today, exuding the joy of the New Year everywhere.
Mei Susu took the fish food from Yueya and was throwing it into the lake when she saw a group of ministers surrounding a man walking slowly towards her from the other side of the lake.
Looking closely, who else is there besides Xuanyuan Che?
Mei Susu was delighted, she threw the fish food and waved at him vigorously, but perhaps because she didn't say anything, Xuanyuan Che didn't look in her direction, and left with the group of ministers while talking.
Mei Susu pouted her lips and let her arms hang down.
The next moment, a familiar voice sounded behind her.
"Who made my Su Su unhappy?"
Mei Susu turned around in surprise, and when she saw Xuanyuan Che, she immediately rushed over to him: "Cheche."
"Ahem, today is New Year's Eve, if you have nothing to do, please go back."
A middle-aged man in a first-rank official robe spoke.
As soon as he spoke, the rest of the people immediately continued the conversation to welcome the god.
"Yes, yes, it's getting late now, it's time to go back."
"Then I will take my leave."
The ministers bowed and then left.
In the end, only the middle-aged man who spoke at the beginning remained.
"Susu, this is Grand Tutor Wen, nice to meet you." Xuanyuan Che touched Mei Susu's head and gestured for her to say hello.
Mei Susu bowed obediently: "Susu greets Master Wen, Master Wen, I wish you a happy new year."
"Hahaha." Master Wen looked at Mei Susu with a smile: "Such a smart girl is really rare in the world."
Mei Susu blushed when she was praised, and smiled charmingly, saying, "I often hear Your Highness mention the Grand Tutor."
Xuanyuan Che frowned. When did he mention it?
Master Wen said, "Oh!" and seemed to be very interested. "What did your Highness say about this old minister?"
Mei Susu chuckled.
"He said that Master Wen had extensive knowledge of both ancient and modern times, and knew everything from astronomy to geography. He was a pillar of the country and a minister of the state. He was loyal to the country and stood upright in the court. He had a clean mind and was loyal to the country!"
Not only Master Wen, but even Xuanyuan Che was stunned by this praise.
Then, Master Wen knelt down with a plop and bowed to Xuanyuan Che: "I am so worthy of Your Highness the Crown Prince's praise. I feel ashamed!"
Xuanyuan Che: “….”
He looked at Mei Susu with his phoenix eyes, and Mei Susu made a face at him.
He smiled helplessly and said to Master Wen on the ground: "Get up, Master Wen deserves my praise."
"I will go through fire and water for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Master Wen kowtowed again to express his gratitude, then slowly stood up.
It was with the help of the prince that he was able to fill the hole of ten thousand taels of silver when the official salt was lost.
Afterwards, he sent people to help him find the whereabouts of the lost official salt, and finally found out that it was embezzled by the Cao family.
Although Master Wen did not understand why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had kept the official salt matter secret, there was one thing that was certain: His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had not held the Shan family responsible, and had helped save the Shan family from the dire straits.
How could he dare to forget this kindness?
Hearing Mei Susu's praise today, although he knew there must be some exaggeration in it, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is such a precious person. He has been working in the court for so many years, and he has never seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince be nice to anyone.
It is his great fortune to receive this honor today.
"Speaking of the matter that I mentioned to Master Wen, how has Master Wen arranged it?"
Master Wen said, "It has been arranged. When will His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."
As he spoke, Master Wen glanced at Mei Susu covertly.
Mei Susu noticed his gaze and tilted her head strangely. Was it related to her?
Xuanyuan Che nodded: "After the New Year."
Master Wen clasped his fists and said, "I understand."
The two of them were playing a guessing game, and Mei Susu was confused by what they were saying. What was "are you done?" and "has the New Year passed?" She had a vague feeling that it was related to her.
Xuanyuan Che chatted with Master Wen for a few more words, and then Master Wen said goodbye to Xuanyuan Che and Mei Susu.
After Master Wen left, Mei Susu asked, "What did Cheche talk to Master Wen about? Is it related to me?"
Xuanyuan Che walked back holding her little hand. Seeing a brightly blooming red plum blossom, Xuanyuan Che reached out to pick it and put it next to Mei Susu's ear.
Looking at her delicate face that was more beautiful than red plums, with deep eyes, he reached out and hooked her hair behind her ears: "What color does Su Su like?"
“It’s an elegant color.”
"How about letting Susu decorate the house from now on?"
Mei Susu was stunned and stopped.
"Is the house that Cheche is talking about what I think it is?"
"What are you thinking about, Susu? Tell me."
Mei Susu glared at him coquettishly: "You clearly knew it, but you still teased me."
Xuanyuan Che laughed happily, then picked up Mei Susu and strode towards Chaoyang Palace.
"You haven't answered my question yet. What did you talk about with Master Wen? Is it related to me?"
Mei Susu hasn't forgotten what happened just now.
Xuanyuan Che looked ahead and smiled, "After the New Year, Su Su will know."
As he walked, Xuanyuan Che stopped.
With a cold face, he suddenly looked at the person in his arms: "Today is New Year's Eve, and it's almost dark. Did Su Su forget something?"
it's dark?
Mei Susu looked up at the sky. It was still broad daylight, so how could it be so dark?
She looked confused: "What's the matter?"
Mei Susu cried out in pain as her little face was pinched by slender fingers.
"Why are you pinching me? It hurts~" Mei Susu broke free from his arms and stood in front of Xuanyuan Che, with a look of grievance in her eyes.
Xuanyuan Che said in a disappointed tone: "It should hurt. If it doesn't hurt, how would you know what's wrong?"
Mei Susu looked at him with cunning eyes, like a naughty cat.
"If Cheche doesn't tell me, how can I know where I went wrong?"
Xuanyuan Che stretched out his hand to pinch her little face, but Mei Susu dodged nimbly. She hid behind a plum tree and waved at Xuanyuan Che.
"If Cheche can catch me, I will accept the punishment, otherwise I won't pinch Cheche's face!"
Xuanyuan Che's throat rolled, and immediately a dark color rose in his eyes. He raised the corner of his mouth to Mei Susu: "Then Susu, you have to run faster. If you are caught by me, you will be in pain."
