Xiao Yi choked up a little, then was stunned with a panicked look while his left leg was still floating in the air due to his unstable balance.
Xiao Yi's eyeballs barely flickered when their faces met were barely spaced apart.
"Your Majesty..." Xiao Yi's voice seemed to be stuck in his throat. Surprised and stunned, at once,
although His Majesty was in costume as bad as anything as long as Xiao Yi saw those blackish brown eyeballs, he would always recognize His Majesty in various ways.
"Maxing..."His Majesty pushed Xiao Yi's slender body slowly, making sure the girl stood up safely.
"Puni the servant of His Majesty..."Xiao Yi bent his legs, giving an official stance in front of His Eminence Yan Yue.
His Highness Yan Yue was wearing a simple robe like a roadside merchant. But that ugly shirt could not hide the aura of His Majesty's good looks .
His Highness Yan Yue sounded a small cough with his head watching the surroundings like it was alert whereas inside the room it was still very quiet just him and his Majesty and a few of His Majesty's bodyguards in people's clothes the ordinary as well as the dining table chairs without occupants were being cleaned by an indifferent servant with the presence of the two of them.
It was too early for visitors to arrive. The shopkeeper and his servants were still busy preparing the store for the arrival of the visitors and their customers.
His Majesty's index finger stuck to his light-brown lips glinting, hinting that Xiao yi did not need to make a sound anymore.
"Come, follow me..." His Majesty pulled the girl's wrist in a hurry. Climb the stairs to the top floor of the shop. Enter into a room, where there is already a large table and the food is presented in a state that still reflects thin smoke the sign has just been prepared.
In the room was also already Jian Jie's bodyguard standing like a statue in the corner of the room, watching the food table carefully in the clothes of most ordinary people.
His Majesty turned to Jian Jie, his eyes squinted slightly, as if he could read His Majesty's intentions, the loyal bodyguard nodded.
"All is assured to be safe, Your Majesty, please enjoy Your Majesty's breakfast with Consort Yi." Jian's bodyguard moved from where he stood.
"I'll be outside His Majesty's door" Jian's bodyguard said.
His Eminence Yan Yue nodded her head while her hand was still gripping Xiao Yi's wrist.
His Majesty brought Xiao Yi to sit facing the table, half-dragging. Ringisan Xiao Yi made His Eminence Yan Yue aware that he had been acting a little harshly towards the girl. Then quickly released Xiao Yi's hand.
"You can't call me Your Majesty if we're outside the palace like this"
said His Majesty in a low tone.
That extremely serious Venerable's face paused Xiao Yi's intention to ask,
his head was bowed waiting, letting the sentence that was almost thrown from his mouth be swallowed back.
"Chenxing, I will call you like that, and you may call me Yue" His Majesty said again.
Xiao Yi raised his face in shock, his face flushed red, so disrespectful to him, with the status of a lowly person who was offered as a concubine to the king if he dared to call a king by his small name.
That act was the same as insulting, and surely the Yanzhi kingdom would not tolerate it.
Xiao Yi would reject His Majesty's request, he did not dare to be so disrespectful as that.
"Hamba wouldn't dare...!" reject Xiao Yi.
"This is not a request, this is an order from the king!" sahut His Highness Yan Yue and forced look.
"If you keep calling me Your Majesty, then everyone knows that I am the king and you will punish me severely for foiling the disguise of a king"
Xiao Yi was stunned, he had not yet received the punishment that yesterday now His Majesty had even threatened him with another punishment. Who can be on this person's side if he intermittently tries to impose punishment on others.
"Don't be big-headed, you can only call me by the name of Yue if we're outside the palace in the clothes of ordinary people, beyond that you still have to call me His Majesty"
Xiao Yi did not blink looking at this strange handsome king, he was not to mention speechless, His highness had already called him a big head.
His Majesty paid no heed to the thick look of confusion on Xiao Yi's face, indifferently retrieved the chopsticks from the top of the small tray and gently stirred the thin smoky Mapo doufu bowl.
This traditional dish of diced tofu, mixed with ground meat, chili powder, chives and bean paste is very famous in Yubei. The taste is savory, spicy and sweet is becoming very liked by all people, especially among the ordinary people because the ingredients are not too expensive.
"Come, eat.your thin body can limp if not eat. How could I give punishment to a person who has no energy" His Majesty stuffed a piece of tofu into his mouth and clucked like he was tempting Xiao Yi into tasting.
Chenxing's stomach seemed to respond to the smell of food on the table, let alone last night he had not eaten properly due to his uneasiness for what he was about to face today.
Xiao Yi's eyes twinkled at the pale shiny bakpao on the plate. I don't know how long he had never eaten one of the foods he could easily find on the streets of Youwu city.
With a slight blush taken away, a single bite on the bakpao offered a chewy, gentle and savory sensation forcing Xiao Yi to involuntarily devour it with a hint of greed.
His Majesty smiled slightly looking at the young concubine who was no longer timid.
Xiao Yi forgot for a moment his status in front of His Highness Yan Yue because his stomach could no longer compromise the situation.
The two of them finished the breakfast without awkward each other anymore.
About an hour later they had come out of the tavern, walking casually along with people who began to busy passing by, jian's bodyguard and Cun's bodyguard followed right behind while the other three bodyguards kept their distance despite not being so far away.
They walked towards the market on the city streets.
"Are you ready to serve your sentence?" His Majesty lowered his head, bringing his mouth closer to Xiao Yi's ears.
Xiao Yi raised his face slightly and nodded. He could not guess what punishment he would receive, but he was completely unafraid. Even if His Majesty sold him as a slave in the market, he would accept it without a fight.
Suddenly His Majesty stopped his steps in front of a honey confectioner.
Benak Xiao Yi immediately recalled an incident a few months ago when he first stepped on the city of Yubei, this was the same honey pot vendor stall where he jumped from inside the carriage, running towards her and accidentally bumping into someone, the drama ends when she is in the arms of a stranger.
Xiao Yi's mouth opened slightly in surprise,
Yes, here he was hugged by His Highness Yan Yue for the first time.
"Chenxing.I will punish you by buying a lot of honey sweets.." whispered His Majesty with a satisfied grin, as if he managed to play with the beautiful girl in front of him.
