Dongfang Liren saw that Ye Jingtang was studying it seriously. She tilted her head and glanced at it. fie was looking at one of the colorful illustrations in the book. The illustration was an annotation of the phrase ‘two beauties offering peaches’ in the book. It was two beauties kneeling side by side on a couch and offering big peaches…
Thump!
Ye Jingtang was admiring the illustration when a fair hand pressed on the illustration, almost knocking the book away.
He looked up and saw that the princess’s eyes were slightly cold.
“What are you looking at?”
Ye Jingtang blinked. “I’m reading the book. Your Highness showed it to me. Is there a problem?”
Dongfang Liren felt that the problem was huge. Perhaps she was afraid that the messy illustrations in the book would lead Ye Jingtang, a good young man who was a gentleman, astray, so she hurriedly took the book back. “Hmm… Perhaps my subordinate misunderstood and took the wrong book. 1 only took a glance and felt that it was unrefined, so I threw it aside and didn’t read it.”
Ye Jingtang didn’t believe her at all, but he didn’t expose her. “1 see. I’ve never seen the original version of Wu Shengxie’s masterpiece. Can Your Highness…” “No!”
“I’m just borrowing it. It’s just a book for light reading…”
Dongfang Liren’s expression was serious. “The purpose of reading is to apply what you’ve learned. After reading these things, do you want to put them into practice?”
Otherwise?Ye Jingtang couldn’t refute. He gave up on the idea of borrowing the book and said, “Then… this book can clear Your Highness’s doubts…”
??
Dongfang Liren looked at Ye Jingtang in disbelief. “You remember it so clearly?”
“There aren’t many books at the border. I’ve read it dozens of times. My memory is good, so it’s normal for me to remember it.”

The fat-headed dragon in front of Dongfang Liren undulated slightly. After examining Ye Jingtang for a long time, she lowered her head and flipped through the book. She found the forty-eighth chapter that she had yet to read and carefully read the content…
No, no, it can’t be done there…

After Dongfang Liren understood the meaning behind the obscure words, her eyes gradually widened. Her face was like a blooming peach blossom in February, turning redder and redder, and her dignified bearing was completely gone…
Ye Jingtang sat on the couch, rested his elbows on his knees, and covered his mouth to prevent his laughter from ruining his cold temperament and being beaten to death by Dumdum.
Thump!
Dongfang Liren slammed the book shut. After looking around, she reached for Ye Jingtang’s waist, wanting to pull out the Hornless Dragon Saber.
Snap!
“Huh?”
Ye Jingtang grabbed Dongfang Liren’s wrist and pressed the saber back. He said amiably, “Your Highness, don’t be rash. Be careful of Your Highness’s python body…”
“Let go!” Dongfang Liren frowned and pulled out the saber forcefully. Seeing that Ye Jingtang wouldn’t let go, she pulled it a few times.
Then she suddenly stopped and looked at her fair right hand that was being held by the man.

Ye Jingtang hurriedly let go of her smooth and warm hand and protected the saber. “1 come from Jianghu, so it’s only right for me to know more. I’m just clearing Your Highness’ doubts. If Your Highness is angry, Your Highness should dig Wu Shengxie’s grave. There’s no reason to punish me.”
Dongfang Liren’s eyes were brimming with killing intent. She wanted to scold him, but at this moment, the carriage stopped.
“Your Highness, we’ve arrived at Bamboo Street.”
Ye Jingtang felt relieved and stood up. “Let’s go. I’ll watch Your Highness work on the case. I’ll pretend that nothing happened today.”
Then he quickly walked out of the carriage.
Dongfang Liren clenched her fists and restrained herself for a long time before taking a deep breath. She closed her eyes and focused, wanting to forget the ‘knowledge’ she had just gained.
However, it seemed that she could never go back…
