“It wasn’t an assassination.”
“What was it then?”
Facing Jiang Peihuan’s puzzled expression, Xiao Nanye briefly explained what happened in the palace, then continued, “The royal doctor has examined my injury, it’s nothing serious, it will heal in a few days.”
“But this clothes, Huan Er, you may have to mend this.”
“Your Highness still wants to wear these clothes?”
“Of course, this was handmade by you. To me, it is more precious than any treasure. I came to ask you if this torn part can be mended?”
Upon hearing his words, Jiang Peihuan’s eyes were full of surprise. She unconsciously looked into Xiao Nanye’s eyes, but saw his eyes full of worry.
There was a complex look in Jiang Peihuan’s eyes.
He’s the brother of the emperor, he could have any kind of clothes he wanted.
She thought so in her heart and then said, “Your Highness, given your status, you can have any clothes you want, why do you need to…”
“It’s not the same.”
The man softly interrupted Jiang Peihuan, then smiled and said, “Although this outfit is not expensive, it was made with your heart, Huan Er. It is something that nothing else can compare to.”
His gaze was deep to begin with, when he looked at someone with focus, you could clearly see your reflection in his eyes.
It was as if his eyes held only you.
Jiang Peihuan couldn’t bear to meet his gaze and quickly turned her eyes away, “I will get the needle and thread.”
A moment later, Jiang Peihuan came back with the needle and thread, looked at Xiao Nanye, and gently said, “Please take off your clothes.”
Hearing Jiang Peihuan’s words, Xiao Nanye directly unbuttoned his shirt.
Taking the shirt from his hands, Jiang Peihuan looked at the torn sleeve, the damaged area was very obvious, it couldn’t be mended, so she took a matching silk thread and embroidered a few bamboo leaves over the torn part.
While Jiang Peihuan was embroidering, Xiao Nanye sat quietly by her side.
Seeing her skilful needlework, Xiao Nanye looked somewhat puzzled.
He had asked Han Feng to investigate Jiang Peihuan, but she had never learned embroidery.
And the previous incident at the moat.
“Huan Er, when did you learn to swim?”
“Hiss…”
Xiao Nanye’s words caused Jiang Peihuan’s finger to tremble, and the needle directly pierced her fingertip.
“Let me see.”
Hearing Jiang Peihuan’s gasp of pain, Xiao Nanye quickly stepped forward, took her hand, and seeing the blood on her fingertip, the man’s eyes showed a trace of remorse. Lowering his head, he took her finger into his mouth.
The warm breath enveloped Jiang Peihuan’s fingertip instantly, and she could even feel a bit of heat. Looking at the man standing in front of her, Jiang Peihuan’s eyes were filled with surprise.
Feeling the taste of blood disappearing, he let go of her hand. Jiang Peihuan quickly covered her hand with a handkerchief.
“It’s my fault, I shouldn’t have asked.”
Hearing his words, Jiang Peihuan’s eyelids fluttered.
She had thought that no one noticed she could swim at that time. It turned out that Xiao Nanye had seen it.
After thinking for a while, she said softly, “After 1 fell into the water last time, 1 specifically learned.”
“Hmm.”
Unwilling to continue the topic, Xiao Nanye brought up the matter of Xiao Junhao’s gift, “This time, he probably won’t have time to trouble the Liu family again.”
“No.”
Looking at Xiao Nanye, Jiang Peihuan explained the origin of the sea hawk, and then continued, “This sea hawk is a gift I specifically prepared for Prince Qing through my cousin from the Liu family.”
Hearing Jiang Peihuan’s words, Xiao Nanye raised an eyebrow.
Looking at Jiang Peihuan, the man said softly with a smile, “Huan Er, it seems that you really dislike him.”
“Yes, 1 detest Prince Qing deeply.”
Seeing the confusion deepen in Xiao Nanye’s eyes, Jiang Peihuan changed the subject, picked up the clothes in her hand, and said to the man in front of her, “I have mended the clothes, do you think they’re suitable?”
Hearing Jiang Peihuan’s words, Xiao Nanye didn’t continue the topic, but put on the clothes.
Looking at the unique embroidery on his arm, the man smiled and said, “With Huan Er’s mending, it looks even better than before.”
Jiang Peihuan smiled, not saying anything.
“Are you practicing calligraphy?”
As he spoke, Xiao Nanye walked towards Jiang Peihuan’s desk.
There were already several pieces of calligraphy on it.
Xiao Nanye picked up a piece, it read “Family Harmony, Prosperity in All Things.”
Jiang Peihuan’s handwriting was very bold, if it wasn’t for the wet ink on it, Xiao Nanye would hardly believe this handwriting came from her hand.
Because the characters didn’t look like they were written by a teenager, but more like they were written by an elder who had lived for decades.
“Is my handwriting unbearable to look at?”
Seeing Xiao Nanye staring at her handwriting, Jiang Peihuan came over and joked.
Hearing her words, Xiao Nanye laughed out loud, “If Huan Er’s handwriting is unbearable, I wonder how many so-called calligraphers would be ashamed.”
As he spoke, Xiao Nanye picked up the paper and brush beside him.
He glanced at Jiang Peihuan, and wrote a few characters on the paper.
Jiang Peihuan lowered her gaze to the writing desk.
Words sprang out from the paper: “To win one’s heart, never to part till death.”
Xiao Nanye’s handwriting was as sharp and powerful as himself, with distinct edges, yet it possessed an indescribable ease.
Suddenly, Xiao Nanye handed the brush to Jiang Peihuan.
Meeting her puzzled expression, he spoke softly, “Can you gift me a piece of your writing?”
“What does Your Highness want me to write?”
“Anything, at your will.”
Hearing his words, Jiang Peihuan unconsciously looked at him.
He wore a royal blue robe, his jet-black hair just tied up, eyes bright under his sharp eyebrows.
After a moment’s thought, Jiang Peihuan wrote down two characters on the paper: “Peace and health!”
Two simple characters, yet they conveyed Jiang Peihuan’s blessings.
Upon seeing the two characters, Xiao Nanye showed surprise in his eyes, but then, they were full of tenderness.
He picked up the piece of paper and blew on it gently, “I won’t let you down.”
Carrying the calligraphy, he walked outside, saying as he walked, “I’ll leave the writing on the desk to you. 1 must return to my mansion now.”
Xiao Nanye’s figure quickly disappeared at the door.
Watching the closed door, Jiang Peihuan unconsciously looked at the writing on the desk.
A hint of a smile appeared in her eyes, as if she had thought of something.
Han Feng had been waiting in the tree for a long time, and if Xiao Nanye did not come out, he would really fall asleep. Hearing the sound, he quickly flew down from the tree.
“Master, what is this?”
Seeing the white paper in Xiao Nanye’s hand, Han Feng was all surprised, but when he looked down, he saw the two characters, “Peace and health!”
This was not their master’s handwriting.
“Master, is this a gift from the eldest miss?”
“Yes.”
“Eldest Miss’s handwriting is really good.”
“I’ll also ask for a piece of her writing later, i wonder if she would be willing to give it..”
