Swap, the involutionary regent palace fight also forced me to rebel

Chapter 174 Xiao Zhizi, I feel uncomfortable

It felt like Yun Ting pulled me over, not because he had anything good to say, but rather because he wanted me to talk to him to cheer him up.

It was obvious that Yun Ji needed me more than chatting with Yun Ting.

Unwilling to chat with the little brat, Nan Yingzhi frowned: "Can't you turn it down?"

Song Cheng felt a little embarrassed that Yun Ting's shouting of "I want the prince to come" was no less than a child crying and asking for milk from his mother.

Normally, His Majesty wants the prince to accompany him, and although the prince is reluctant, he doesn't mind pretending.

But today, His Majesty insisted on interrupting the prince and the queen's secret meeting again and again. It would be strange if the prince was willing to go!

"I have tried to refuse, but it was no use." Noticing that she was more irritated than usual because of Lian Zhaoyi, and His Majesty was urging her to go, Song Cheng felt helpless, "His Majesty insisted that you go."

Not knowing when she would be able to return, Nan Yingzhi wanted to lift the curtain, check on Yun Ji's condition, and then set off again.

Her fingertips reached the edge of the curtain, and the other three women saw her, and their panicked look suddenly emerged in their minds.

After hesitating for a moment, she withdrew her hand.

Worried that Yunji would be scared because he couldn't see her, Nan Yingzhi whispered instructions to Song Cheng before riding away.

"Song Qing, you stay here and guard. If the queen asks me where I am, you should answer, 'The prince is talking to His Majesty and will be back soon.'"

How could Song Cheng dare not agree? He nodded quickly to reassure her: "Yes."

Riding his horse to Yun Ting's carriage, Nan Yingzhi dismounted quickly and handed the reins to Lingfeng.

Seeing her coming from afar, Gao Shu lowered his head, gently lifted the curtain, and announced inside: "Your Majesty, the prince is here."

Calculating that Nan Yingzhi was about to arrive outside, Yun Ting spoke, his voice full of fatigue: "Brother, please come in."

As he opened most of the carriage curtain, Nan Yingzhi bowed and walked in, saluted to Yun Ting: "Your Majesty, how are you?"

The carriage was spacious. Yun Ting pointed to a seat and said, "Brother, please sit down."

If Nan Yingzhi hadn't seen Jin An sitting next to him at this moment, he would have wanted to take action right now.

Even though she had a lot of thoughts in her mind, she remained calm on the outside: "Your Majesty, why did you call me here?"

"Your words really hurt the relationship between us brothers," Yun Ting raised his lips, but his smile was full of weariness. "I have nothing to do, so can't I send you here?"

Seeing that he was prepared to play the emotional card, Nan Yingzhi refused calmly because she was worried about Yun Ji and didn't want to have a relationship with anyone other than Yun Ji.

"Your Majesty, you have been busy with state affairs recently and look a little haggard. It is a good opportunity for you to take advantage of this hunting time to relax."

She bowed and stood up to leave. "Since it's nothing serious, why did you call me here? You can rest more. I won't disturb you."

Seeing that she was listening to him patiently unlike usual, Yun Ting felt uneasy. He stretched out his hand, wanting to keep her, but he didn't know what to say.

Seeing that his lips moved for a long time without saying anything, Nan Yingzhi ran out of patience: "I'll take my leave."

"Jin'an, do you feel that my brother is different from usual?" Yun Ting thought thoughtfully, "He is absent-minded and in a hurry to leave, as if he is being held back by something, and he is even unwilling to say a few more words to me.

"Send someone to watch him and see what he is going to do when he rushes out."

Guessing that this was closely related to Lian Zhaoyi, Jin'an said "Oh" slowly, and sent someone to pretend to go outside for a walk as a report.

Nan Yingzhi rushed back to the carriage that the imperial concubine was riding in, and happened to see Yun Ji leaning against the window, asking Song Cheng, "Where is the prince now?"

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, and when she looks at Yun Ji, she can't help but look through a filter of love.

So, in her opinion, Yun Ji was not only asking Song Cheng about his whereabouts, but also had tears in his eyes and was looking forward to her appearance.

It looks exactly like a young woman biting her handkerchief while waiting for her husband to return.

Song Cheng was so frustrated by Yun Ji's pestering that it was useless to throw out the excuse that Nan Yingzhi had left, so he had no choice but to agree to go and check out the situation.

When he raised his eyes, he happened to catch a glimpse of Nan Yingzhi riding towards him.

Fortunately, she came in time. Song Cheng was almost grateful. He hurriedly gave up his seat and avoided Yun Ji's question: "The prince is here!"

Yun Ji was completely focused on Nan Yingzhi, and at this moment, he no longer cared how uncomfortable the biting autumn wind was making him feel.

He just wanted to see Nan Yingzhi in person.

As soon as Song Cheng finished speaking, Nan Yingzhi happened to appear beside the carriage.

She keenly felt that the oncoming strong wind was blocked by her, and warmth slowly rose in Yun Ji's heart.

He stretched out his right hand towards her, looking aggrieved: "Xiao Zhizi, I feel uncomfortable."

After taking a quick glance inside, Nan Yingzhi didn't see the other three people. She was a little confused: "Where are the three of them?"

Hearing that she paid attention to where others were going without asking about her own situation, Yun Ji felt sad and raised his head to the inside.

Nan Yingzhi looked over and discovered three figures huddled together on top of the luggage behind several layers of gauze curtains.

Even though the hand he stretched out was not held, Yun Ji was still unwilling to retract it, allowing the strong wind to take away the little warmth in his palm.

Because there was no blood, his bare hands looked as pale as a pile of snow, which made Nan Yingzhi feel distressed.

Regardless of the gauze that only blocked a small part of her vision and had no soundproofing at all, she grabbed the reins with one hand and held his hand with the other.

Logically speaking, Yun Ji should be warm as he was wrapped in a fur coat and covered with a blanket.

But when Nan Yingzhi touched his hand, she felt the coldness of touching snow with bare hands without gloves in winter.

She never thought that he was wrapped so thickly, but it couldn't keep him warm. Her heart suddenly tightened: "Why are your hands so cold?"

Yun Ji couldn't give a clear reason as to why he suddenly felt cold all over and that neither wrapping himself in a blanket nor basking in the sun was of any use.

He only knew that the moment Nan Yingzhi held his hand, he felt as if he was walking in the snow and suddenly bumped into a warm stove.

The heater controlled its strength and gently wrapped his cold hands with the flames, giving him the long-lost warmth.

Yun Ji couldn't help himself and put his left hand on her palm, trying to get more warmth.

He rarely showed his vulnerable side. He looked at Nan Yingzhi helplessly and muttered, "It's cold and uncomfortable."

"It's okay, I'm here." Seeing that he looked haggard, Nan Yingzhi decided to coax him first and then ask him about his specific condition. "I'll warm you up, and you won't be cold anymore."

Seeing that she needed to hold the reins with her right hand and could only free her left hand to accompany him, and that she was almost losing her balance because of him pulling her, Yun Ji slightly loosened his grip on her left hand.

"Little Gardenia," if he wasn't afraid that she would fall, he would have almost dragged her into the carriage by force, "There are no outsiders here."

Hearing his hidden meaning, Nan Yingzhi glanced at the three huddled figures behind the gauze curtain and hesitated: "But they..."

"They are behind the gauze curtain and won't come out." Yun Ji lowered his eyes and gently shook her hand, "You can just pretend they are not here."

Nan Yingzhi always felt that now, as a "real man", he should ride a horse and travel around the world.

Instead, like women or otakus like Yun Ting who don't like sports, they were carried carefully to the hunting ground in a carriage like delicate objects.

Surprised that she had been in a male body for only a month and a half, but she already had a kind of so-called male dignity. She held the reins tightly with her right hand and said quietly, "It's not good for me to ride in a carriage."

"Don't you usually travel by carriage?" Yun Ji was puzzled as he didn't know what she was really thinking. "What's wrong with sitting in a carriage now?"

"But normal times are normal times, and now we are hunting." Feeling the freedom of riding a horse, Nan Yingzhi tried to defend his identity as a "young man". "As a young and strong man, I should ride over there."

Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, Yun Ji kept pestering her and used himself as an excuse.

"But I want you to come in and keep me company." Although his words were soft, his expression was quite stubborn, as if he said, "Don't reject me, you can't reject me." "Can you condescend to get into the carriage for me?"
