The Foodie Online Chapter 10

Originally, Henry would not have known that someone had moved into Tingzhu Building so quickly.

He had just returned and had a lot of things to deal with at home. He originally just wanted to go to the palace to pay a visit to the emperor, but when he came back from the Qianqing Palace, he happened to think of the tenth imperial sister who always pestered him when he was in the palace.

Logically speaking, he would not think of making a special trip to see Emily, but he happened to remember that before leaving the palace, he asked Emily to pass on a few books to his teacher, who was now in the study room teaching the Four Books and Five Classics for safekeeping.

On the way to Changle Palace, he happened to pass by Tingzhu Tower.

When he saw the eaves of Tingzhu Tower from afar, he felt that something was wrong. Normally, when no one lived in Tingzhu Tower, the palace gates were closed. Only he and the person in charge of the keys in the palace had the keys here.

At this time, the door was open, and two young eunuchs were holding a large broom and sweeping the bamboo leaves that had fallen in the front hall due to the rain a few days ago.

He frowned and stepped into the Tingzhu Tower with a limp.

Little Li was just sweeping the bamboo leaves out of boredom. He had never seen Henry before, so he naturally didn't know him. When he saw someone trying to trespass, he put down his broom without hesitation and stopped the person. "Hey, hey, hey, who are you? Why are you just barging in..."

Henry didn't expect that there would be someone in the Daming Palace who dared to stop him. He lowered his eyes and glanced at the fair-skinned little eunuch, not bothering to say a word.

Only then did Leo feel that he seemed to have offended some powerful person.

The young man in front of him was wearing a black robe with a transparent and bright red gem tied around his waist. He was tall and handsome, but his face was as gloomy as water and as cold as frost. He had a pair of narrow and sharp eyes, like a sword drawn from its sheath.

He is a weak and introverted writer.

There was only one guard following behind him, who also had a blank expression on his face. He stood straight and looked straight ahead. When he heard his question, he condescended to take out a waist badge and waved it in front of him.

When Little Li saw the words clearly, his legs softened, he threw away the broom and knelt at Henry's feet. Just as he was about to greet him, he heard Henry's cold voice, "Who lives in here?"

A clever eunuch beside him answered quickly, "To answer the Second Prince, the Sixth Prince lives inside."

The Sixth Prince?

Henry frowned, and a hint of confusion flashed in his eyes.

But before he could remember who the Sixth Prince was, he suddenly remembered the books he had deposited here. His face changed, and he ignored the little eunuch who was still kneeling on the ground, stepped over the threshold and strode towards the front hall.

When he was out of sight, the eunuch came up to Little Li and asked in a low voice, "Should we go and report it? The Second Prince doesn't seem very happy."

Little Leo raised his hand to wipe away the cold sweat on his forehead. When he stood up, his legs were still a little weak. He looked dazed, and he was still suffocating because of the man's pressure.

When he reacted, he remembered that his master didn't know what happened yet, and stamped his feet, "Oh no."

The Second Prince is so aggressive, and his master is so weak, he is afraid he will suffer.

Although it was the emperor who gave the order, everyone in the palace knew that the second prince was a stubborn person. Once he got angry, he would not listen to anyone, and sometimes the emperor could do nothing about him.

Seeing his revengeful look, there was no telling how his master would be blamed.

Thinking of this, Little Li stuffed the broom into the little eunuch's arms and said, "You watch here, I'll go find Sister Lily."

Henry walked through the corridor, and his original anger dissipated a lot. Instead, he calmed down and thought secretly.

When he was young, he had heard a little about the affairs of this Sixth Imperial Brother, but he held an attitude of nonchalance and never asked much about it. He really didn't know much about this Imperial Brother who suddenly appeared.

In fact, apart from books and chess, he really doesn't care much about other things.

While he was thinking, the attendant who had been following him suddenly said, "Master, there seems to be someone in Tingfeng Pavilion."

Following his line of sight, Henry's eyelids suddenly jumped.

Is this still the Tingfeng Pavilion he knows?

The pavilion is surrounded by a layer of windproof gauze, with light golden tassels on the eaves. Insect-repellent incense burners are installed at the four feet of the pavilion, emitting misty smoke. A wind chime is hung on a corner of the pavilion, rustling with the wind.

Henry could only think of one word to describe it: gaudy.

A breeze blew by, lifting the curtain, and one could vaguely see a young man sleeping on the table, with a green robe draped behind him.

"This..." The servant looked at him hesitantly.

He stretched out a hand to stop him from speaking, "You stay here, I'll go over and take a look."

As he spoke, he strode up the steps of the Tingfeng Pavilion. The servant had no choice but to stand guard at the foot of the pavilion, but his eyes could not help but glance into the pavilion.

Is that the Sixth Prince?

At this time, Victor was sleeping soundly, breathing evenly with small sips, his face was rosy, and the barrage of comments was also very cheerful.

[Who would have thought that I would do nothing but watch Yuyu sleep for half an hour. ]

[Yuyu is so cute when she falls asleep. Although thirteen years old was not young in ancient times, she is just a child here.]

[Wow, wow, wow, Yu Yu cub is so cute, I want to steal it. 】

[Mom, I want to report this anchor for sleeping on the live broadcast. I actually think it’s pretty.]

[Stop talking. My mom just grabbed my electronic device and said I wasn’t studying hard. After a while, she started looking at it herself, smiling like an auntie and waving goodbye.]

[fcuk, who is this man? He is so handsome! ! ! ! ]

[Ahhh, I'm in love. This brother is so handsome, but he's uneducated and can only say "f*ck" to get around. ]

[Wake up, shouldn't you be focusing on what this man is going to do to Yu Yu? ]

[Hmm... He has been staring at Yuyu for a minute. What does he want to do? ]

It was not as exaggerated as the comments said. Henry did stare at Victor expressionlessly for a while, but most of the time he was just observing him.

Obviously, the young boy in front of him who was sleeping like a little animal was his sixth younger brother whom he had never met.

It was just a little smaller than he had imagined. His arm, which was exposed outside his robe, was as thin as a piece of straw, and his slender wrist seemed like it would break if bent.

However, when he saw clearly that it was his own book under his arm, his face immediately darkened.

This person actually used his book as a pillow???

He angrily pulled out his book and shook his shoulder roughly, "Wake up, don't sleep."

Victor was sleeping in a daze. He was suddenly woken up and had no idea what had happened. His black hair was scattered around his ears. He rubbed his sleepy eyes, raised his head, and looked at him innocently and blankly.

Henry had a cold face and waved his book in front of him, "How dare you use my book as a pillow?"

Victor,...

He blinked slowly, stole a glance at the barrage of comments that had exploded into a line of fireworks, quickly touched the jade pendant at his waist, turned off the live broadcast room, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

After completing this series of actions, he turned his gaze back to the young man in front of him, whose face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

He took a moment to slow down, wait until his brain started to function normally again, and realized who was standing in front of him. He stood up calmly, saluted, and said respectfully, "Second Brother."

Henry slammed his book on the table and looked at him coldly, as if waiting for an explanation.

Victor took a rare look at the book he had thrown on the table with a guilty conscience. The cover of the book was already wrinkled, which was obviously caused by his sleeping.

Henry took a look at the book cover and found that it was his favorite book, "A Complete History of Foreign Countries", which made him even more furious.

Victor's eyes turned back and forth, originally wanting to find an excuse to get away with it, but knowing that the person in front of him was not so easy to fool, he had to tell the truth, "I'm sorry, Second Brother, I accidentally fell asleep, it's just..."

Seeing his hesitation, Henry raised his eyebrows coldly, "Just?"

"It's just..." Victor's eyes wandered, "It's just that the second half of this book is too bland. How did you manage to finish reading it, my brother?"

He really wanted to know this question.

Before reading the book, he flipped through it hastily and found that there were many small annotations in the book, especially in the second half. Victor wanted to doze off while reading this part, but Henry read it very seriously and even wrote a book review on the last page.

"Bland?" Henry's eyes widened in anger.

This book was written by an old gentleman whom he respected very much. He traveled all over the world and spent twenty years to compile this book. Every word is precious. He collected a copy of all versions. When reading it, he carefully savored every word, but he actually said it was bland.

He snorted coldly, "Then you haven't grasped the essence of this book."

He took a long step, sat on the stone bench, spread out the book, pointed to another stone bench, and said, "Sit down."

Victor, "......Ah?"

He raised his eyes and said, "Sit down! I will tell you a story. Today I will let you know how shallow and ignorant you are."

Victor's eyes widened until he realized that Henry was not joking but was serious about reading a book to him. Then he sat down hesitantly, feeling secretly moved in his heart.

I've heard that the second prince has a weird personality, but this is too weird.

-

Upon hearing the news that the second prince had returned, Lily hurried to Tingfeng Pavilion, but after running a few steps, she hesitated and turned back to Changle Palace.

Emily had just finished her afternoon class and had long known the news that her second brother had returned. She was originally very excited about finding an opportunity to go visit her second brother, but when she heard Lily's words, she realized that he had actually gone to Tingzhu Tower.

She jumped up from the couch and paced around the Changle Palace anxiously, muttering, "It's over, it's over, it's over."

The second prince has such a bad temper. If he knew that someone had taken something he wanted, he would definitely not let it go. Besides, the second prince is not the emperor, so he can't be fooled by acting cute.

She turned to look at Xiuxiu, "Go quickly and see what's going on. If the Second Brother is punishing the Sixth Brother, I will stop him no matter what!"

Xiuxiu received the order and hurried to Tingzhulou. After a while, she came back with a strange look on her face.

Emily trotted over to her and asked, "How is it?"

Xiuxiu hesitated for a moment, "This... I was far away and couldn't see clearly, but... the second prince seemed to be... reading a book to the sixth prince."

The two people seem to be quite harmonious.

Emily's face turned a little strange after hearing this. She glanced at Lan Er who was worried beside her and waved at her, "You go back first. Sixth Brother should be fine."

Xiuxiu asked quietly, "Princess, aren't you going over?"

Emily rolled her eyes, "What should I do there? Listen to my second brother studying? I don't want to. I've had enough."

Although she liked her second brother, she didn't want to listen to him study. She was already exhausted from studying so much in the study room, and now she didn't want to bring bad luck upon herself.

She secretly sympathized with Victor in her heart.
