Chapter 47 This prince wants her!

The sun was shining brightly and the weather was clear.

Prime Minister Chen and his grandson Chen Dingshi stood outside the Ninth Prince's palace, waiting for the message.

He whispered sternly, "Ding Shi, when you meet the Ninth Prince, don't act exaggeratedly. The Ninth Prince's temperament is different from before. Don't offend His Highness by being naughty and mischievous."

Chen Dingshi sounded a little impatient.

He had finally waited until today when his father was not at home. He had originally wanted to sneak away to the Hu Mansion to see his sister Hu Mianmian.

Now he has been brought to the palace by his grandfather. Why is he accompanying the Ninth Prince to study?

Chen Dingshi was extremely reluctant, but he did not dare to disobey his grandfather.

At this moment, he could only bow perfunctorily, his voice weak.

"Grandfather, don't worry. When I see the Ninth Prince, I will greet him with a smile and will not act naughty."

At this moment, the eunuch who was in charge of the message came out and bowed with a smile: "Prime Minister, His Highness wants you and the young master to come in."

Prime Minister Chen restrained his expression and took Chen Dingshi up the white jade steps.

Xiao Jingli in the hall was pacing back and forth in front of the closed door.

On his still young and handsome face, a pair of thin eyes contained a sneer.

Hu Mianmian finally came, how should he tease her?

Xiao Jingli recalled the personality of this little girl, who was arrogant and unwilling to admit defeat.

Well, if he could scare her to tears, Xiao Jingli felt that this scene would be very interesting.

So he stood at the door.

He prepared to wait for a while until Prime Minister Chen came in, knocked him unconscious, and then took him hostage.

Afterwards, Xiao Jingli planned to show his fangs and pretend to eat Prime Minister Chen to scare Hu Mianmian.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jingli sneered and laughed first.

If Hu Mianmian cried loudly enough and was willing to kneel on the ground and beg him to spare Prime Minister Chen, then Xiao Jingli would consider sparing the two of them this time.

At this time, the door was pushed open and the eunuch brought in Prime Minister Chen.

There was a playful and murderous look in Xiao Jingli's eyes. It was now.

He was about to pounce and grab Prime Minister Chen, but he saw that the person who came in right behind him was not Hu Mianmian!?

Xiao Jingli's ferocious movements froze in mid-air.

"Your Highness? Your Highness...uh, why is Your Highness standing behind the door?" The eunuch came in and looked around, but was puzzled when he didn't see Xiao Jingli.

The three of them turned around and found Xiao Jingli hiding behind the door.

Chen Dingshi silently watched Xiao Jingli stretch out his hands, feeling puzzled.

Rumor has it that the Ninth Prince is cold-hearted by nature, but when I see him today, I feel that he is a bit silly...

Prime Minister Chen remained calm and saluted: "I, your humble servant, and I, your grandson, Ding Shi, would like to pay our respects to Your Highness the Ninth Prince."

Chen Dingshi came to his senses and lowered his head as well.

Xiao Jingli's fair and handsome face was filled with darkness like dark clouds and rainstorms.

"What did you bring? Where's Hu Mianmian, the one I wanted?"

Chen Dingshi was stunned, raised his head and looked at him in confusion.

Why did the Ninth Prince insist on letting his sister enter the palace?

Prime Minister Chen said in a normal tone: "Mianmian is too young, and has just moved recently. She is not used to many things and cannot be brought into the palace. Therefore, I brought my grandson who is about the same age as Mianmian. Ding Shi will also accompany Your Highness to study."

Chen Dingshi suppressed his confusion and nodded.

Xiao Jingli sneered, lost all interest, and walked over to the chair and sat down.

He put one foot on the couch, and his posture of standing with a sword in his hand made the handsome and cold boy look very imposing.

"Chen Zaiye, are you kidding me?"

The eunuchs who were listening nearby were terrified. The Ninth Prince was really brave. The Emperor respected Prime Minister Chen, but the Ninth Prince dared to call him by his name?

Xiao Jingli slammed the table, and all the decorations on the table jumped. The eunuchs hurried forward and hugged the expensive green jade inkstone.

All I heard was Xiao Jingli scolding: "What I want is Hu Mianmian, not this grandson or that grandson of yours."

If he wasn't worried that the little girl would perish along with his Hupo, he would have wanted to eat Prime Minister Chen and Chen Dingshi alive.

Prime Minister Chen remained calm despite facing such rage.

"Your Highness, Mianmian is young and has not read many books. This is why I think she is not suitable to be a reading companion."

"No matter if she is educated or not, this prince wants her! Even if she is illiterate, let her stay here!"

Hearing this, Chen Dingshi's heart was filled with alarm.

Oh no, there's another person who is driven crazy by his sister's cuteness!

Chen Dingshi felt that the Ninth Prince must have thought that his sister Hu Mianmian was too cute, so he insisted on asking his grandfather to bring her into the palace.

He immediately volunteered and recommended himself.

"Your Highness, it's the same for me to accompany you to study. My sister doesn't have any advantages except that she is cute, soft, well-behaved, smart, and beautiful. I can not only read, but also recognize words and know a little martial arts."

Prime Minister Chen turned his head and looked at Chen Dingshi seriously.

With what he said, how could the Ninth Prince give up on calling Hu Mianmian into the palace?

As expected, Xiao Jingli sneered at Chen Ding and said, "I want her little girl who has no merits. The rest of you can get as far away as possible."

Chen Dingshi was a little angry.

Why didn't the Ninth Prince listen to any advice? He wanted

to snatch his sister from him, didn't he?

Prime Minister Chen took out the books he had brought with him.

"Your Highness, how about this? You read the books first. Once you have learned these two books and can recite them by heart, I will bring my little granddaughter into the palace."

How could Xiao Jingli be the kind of person who would negotiate with others?

He stood up and said coldly, "Don't make demands on me. Since you are unwilling to take her, I will leave the palace to find her."

After he finished speaking, Xiao Jingli walked out of the palace, and the eunuch hurriedly followed him.

Chen Dingshi's eyes widened, and he waited until the Ninth Prince walked away before he put his hands on his hips and angrily cursed: "Grandfather, this Ninth Prince is such a jerk! This is the first time I've met someone more difficult than me! What should I do now?"

Prime Minister Chen sat down leisurely and spread out the book.

"Wait for His Highness to come back."

"What, just sit here and wait?"

"I said that I will continue to teach His Highness the Ninth Prince today. Even if he is not here now, I will wait until dusk. I will teach him a little bit at a time."

After saying that, Prime Minister Chen did not forget to make a stern request: "You also come over and read, and wait together."

Chen Dingshi was so angry that he jumped up and down: "It's boring to be in the palace, and now I have to sit and read books. Ninth Prince, you have ruined me!"

Over there, Xiao Jingli was galloping all the way, and when he reached the gate of the palace, he suddenly stopped.

The eunuch caught up with him breathlessly: "Ninth, Ninth Prince... I finally caught up with you. How come you run so fast? Let's go back quickly. The emperor is very happy to know that the prime minister is here to teach you. You can't refuse to learn."

What he said did not get a response from Xiao Jingli.

Instead, he saw Xiao Jingli looking up at the sky with his handsome brows furrowed coldly.

The eunuch looked up and saw the sky was blue and boundless, nothing special.

But in Xiao Jingli's eyes, the entire palace was surrounded by the shadow of a huge golden dragon.
