Zhao Chengjun slowly skimming aside the tea froth with the lid of the teacup in a leisurely manner. His expression was extremely estranged, and even indifferent through the dense vapor from the hot tea.

Tang Shishi looked at Prince Jing at the top, completely taken aback. She had anticipated many circumstances, and she had even prepared excuses one by one, only did not foresee that Prince Jing would intervene in it.

Even more, she was being transferred to his study room. She was sent by Empress Dowager Yao, why did Prince Jing do that?

Liu Ji coughed again, and Tang Shishi suddenly recovered. She sighed in her heart for a long time, obviously reluctant, but she still has to make a surprise appearance and said gratefully, "Thank you, Prince Jing."

When Tang Shishi prostrating, she could feel many eyes were watching her. Zhao Zixun, Zhou Shunhua, Liu Ji, and even Zhao Chengjun's eyes were on her.

Zhao Chengjun did not ask her to get up and Tang Shishi still kept at bowing posture. She waited for a while and heard an indifferent voice from above, "Get up."

"Thank you, Wangye."

Tang Shishi went to Zhao Chengjun's study to serve him. Then, logically, Zhou Shunhua and Ren Yujun followed Shizi. This should have been a situation where it would have satisfied everyone. Zhao Zixun got his choice of persons, and Zhou Shunhua and Ren Yujun did not have to fight with each other. However, Zhao Zixun, Zhou Shunhua, and others were not pleased.

Zhao Chengjun has been brushing the tea froth for a long time and does not sound like he meant what he said. He put down the teacup and tapped his finger on the table. Zhao Zixun reacted at once and quickly bow with his hands held in front and said, "Father still has things to do. This son doesn't dare to bother father, so will leave first."

Zhao Chengjun nodded faintly without stopping him, "Don't be distracted and focus on studying."

"This son obey your orders."

Zhao Zixun withdrew, and others followed suit. After leaving Zhao Chengjun's room, Zhao Zixun's expression finally cooled down. He glanced at Tang Shishi coldly and said, "Don't play tricks, otherwise, I'll never let you go."

Tang Shishi kept smiling and said respectfully, "This little girl is fortunate to serve Wangye, and she will naturally do her best. How can this little girl play tricks?"

Zhao Zixun sneered coldly, flicked off his sleeve, and strode away. After Zhao Zixun left, Zhou Shunhua and Ren Yujun quietly glanced at Tang Shishi, bowed their heads, and left following Zhao Zixun.

Tang Shishi stood alone at the door, watching the other two following Zhao Zixun's footsteps. Zhao Zixun was handsome, and the two women, one was elegant, and the other was beautiful, walking together. When a handsome man and a beautiful woman came together, displayed the unspeakable beauty of youth.

The smile on Tang Shishi's face gradually faded. She remembered that this was Yan'an courtyard, with Prince Jing's eyes everywhere. Tang Shishi immediately returned to her smiling expression and returned to the room in high spirits.

The news that Tang Shishi and Zhou Shunhua were going to serve grinding ink spread quickly. When the other beauties heard about it, it immediately caused an uproar in Liuyun courtyard.

Liuyun courtyard was in a boisterous state. Tang Shishi already could guess what situation Zhou Shunhua and Ren Yujun will face when they got back, but these have nothing to do with her. Tang Shishi was concerned about her own affairs only and cleaned up the yard during her free time. Unexpectedly, in the afternoon, an unexpected guest arrived.
