Chapter 134 I feel at ease as long as she is here
Ye Qingge turned around and saw the prince sitting at the desk with a pen behind the screen. His movements seemed to be painting.
At this time, the palace servant brought a chair to Ye Qingge.
The prince said without raising his head
"Miss Ye, please sit down."
Ye Qingge sat down suspiciously, wondering what the Crown Prince was going to do. At this moment, all the palace servants tacitly withdrew. Although she had been here once yesterday, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
"Just sit still and wait for me to finish this painting."
Xiao Lingye looked up at Ye Qingge behind the screen. Seeing her sitting obediently, he couldn't help but curl his lips.
This painting has never been completed. He only drew the outline before. Now that the real person is in front of him, he can draw it more vividly.
"Oh well"
Ye Qingge agreed and said, "Just sit down. I have nothing to do anyway. I don't know if the Queen will come today. But judging from the leisurely mood of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, it is highly likely that he will not come."
After a while, she couldn't sit still anymore and wanted to walk around, but she didn't dare to move around without the Crown Prince's permission, so she had to break the quiet atmosphere.
"I wonder what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is painting?"
"Do you want to know?"
"Uh-huh"
"I'll show you tomorrow when I finish my painting."
"it is good"
The maid brought Ye Qingge some fruits, snacks and tea. Ye Qingge felt that she was not here to see a doctor, but to enjoy herself.
After a while she was really bored, so she said
"Your Highness, I also want to paint. Can I paint one too?"
"Can you paint?"
Xiao Lingye didn't expect that she had such talent.
"Of course, it's just drawing, what's so difficult about it?"
"Well, I'm lucky enough to be able to admire Miss Ye's masterpiece today. Come, bring Miss Ye some writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone—"
Everything was ready. Ye Qingge asked the servants to tie her sleeves. She picked up the pen, poked her head with the pen tip and began to think.
Uh... what should I draw?
She racked her brains for a while, and suddenly an idea flashed in her mind. Then she boldly swung her brush and began to paint smoothly.
Xiao Lingye looked at her painting seriously through the screen, and felt relieved. He didn't know why, but whenever she was around, he would feel at ease.
Ye Qingge finished the painting in a short while. She looked at her "masterpiece" with satisfaction, then looked up at the prince.
He seemed not to have finished painting yet. Ye Qingge put down the pen and sat quietly for a while.
She's getting bored again.
Just when she was bored, His Royal Highness finally put down his brush and looked at the painting in front of him. It was almost finished, except for a pair of eyes.
At this moment, he had no idea where to start, because he had not observed Ye Qingge's eyes closely, and he was afraid that the painting would not be lively.
He could draw other parts without looking at Ye Qingge, but the eyes required careful study.
But now the person is right in front of him, but he doesn't dare to go forward to watch. It's really a bit ridiculous.
"Your Highness, have you finished painting?"
Ye Qingge saw that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seemed to have put down his pen, but his brows were furrowed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"I still need a pair of eyes. I can't think of it no matter how hard I try."
Eyes? So he's drawing people?
"Your Highness, are you painting the girl you like?"
"Um"
"If you can't remember, just call that girl over."
"No, I want to give her a surprise, so I can't ask her to come for the time being."
"I see"
This prince is really thoughtful. It can be seen that he likes that girl very much.
"Your Highness, it's time to take your medicine."
At this time, a young eunuch came in with medicine. Unexpectedly, the prince actually asked the palace eunuch to boil the medicine.
"Put it aside for now, I'll drink it later."
"Here"
The eunuch put the medicine aside and left.
I saw him calmly pour the medicine into the flower pot next to him. Alas, it was a pity for the flower pot. Such a good medicinal material was wasted.
"I wonder what Miss Ye painted, could you please let me appreciate it?"
"Of course, but can I come over?"
The prince put away the painting on the table, put on his hat and said
"come on"
"okay"
Ye Qingge took her masterpiece and went over happily. She placed the painting on the table in front of the Crown Prince.
Xiao Lingye saw the jade bracelet on her hand through the white veil on her hat. He was very excited at this moment. It seemed that she liked this bracelet very much.
"Your Highness, what do you think of my painting?"
Xiao Lingye withdrew his gaze and looked at the painting in front of him. After looking at it for a long time, he didn't know what she meant by it.
The painting had a mountain in the background, and on the mountain sat a cat, its paws tied with ropes and hanging from a tree. Not far away, the back of a person seemed to be descending the mountain...
He thought about it for a long time but still didn't know what the painting was, so he said
"The cat Miss Ye drew is so lifelike, and that person looks like a human too..."
Ye Qingge was a little embarrassed. In fact, painting was not her strong point, especially using a soft brush. It was good enough for her to draw a general idea.
"Uh... Your Highness, this isn't a cat, it's a tiger. Look, there's a character 'king' on its head."
Xiao Lingye took a closer look and it was indeed
"I'm really short-sighted. I looked at it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. I wonder what the meaning of this painting by Miss Ye is?"
Ye Qingge smiled cunningly
"Your Highness, it's normal that you don't know this, because this painting is not something that most people can draw. My painting actually depicts an idiom called - hanging a tiger away from the mountain."
"Tune the tiger away from the mountain?"
Xiao Lingye didn't react for a moment, but then he started laughing again
"It's really like a tiger leaving the mountain. Miss Ye's talent is really unexpected."
He was really amused by this painting. He had only learned to paint strictly since he was a child, so he had never painted such an interesting painting, let alone seen such an interesting painting.
Ye Qingge felt embarrassed when being praised
"Your Highness, please don't praise me. This isn't a talent. I just painted it for fun. I don't actually know how to paint. I just saw you painting and it got me inspired. I just painted this for fun. I'll have the servants take it away and throw it away later."
"You painted this yourself, how can you throw it away? I'll have it framed and hung in my bedroom."
"Ah? ...Your Highness, please don't do this. This painting of mine is not worthy of being hung in your bedroom."
"I think it's a good match. This painting is very interesting. I like it very much."
"Then just keep it in your collection. Don't put it out there. It would be embarrassing."
Her painting is completely at the level of an elementary school student. It's not good enough. His Royal Highness is just trying to make her happy.
"Okay, as you say."
Xiao Lingye was afraid that she would snatch the painting away, so he had to agree to keep it for her.
Ye Qingge secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed
Then the two of them had lunch together, and Ye Qingge went back leisurely.
She got off the carriage and was about to go home when a big hand grabbed her arm.
"Qingge, where have you been? I have been waiting for you for a long time."
Xiao Lingche looked at her with a sad face...
