Chapter 340 Mu Li helps a lot
"You, you, you..., you only know how to eat, you are a pighead..." Zhou Chang was really angry. Everyone else said so and she couldn't refute. Now Skinny Monkey said so too.
The thin monkey pursed his lips, changed his tone of concern, and helped Zhou Chang to sit down beside the bed: "My Lord, have you been poisoned?"
Zhou Chang did not forget to hold the pants and stuff them into the skinny monkey's hands. It was not that she didn't want to put them on herself, but her head was too heavy and she had to keep changing hands to hold it.
The skinny monkey took it familiarly and helped Zhou Chang put it on.
"Where are my shoes?" Zhou Chang put on his pants and started looking for his shoes again.
Fortunately, ancient nobles still had things like underwear, otherwise it would be even more embarrassing.
The skinny monkey hurriedly turned around to find his shoes and put them on Zhou Chang. He then picked up his coat that had been left aside at some point and put it on Zhou Chang as well.
Zhou Chang dressed neatly again, and his mind was calm. He was able to joke with the skinny monkey: "Have you heard of 'Pig Man'?"
The skinny monkey shook his head.
"I am the real one." Zhou Chang pointed at his head and stood up to leave. Suddenly he thought of Gao Yuan, "By the way, where is Gao Yuan? What time is it now? Why can't I see Gao Yuan?"
"When I was called up just now, it was just after the Si hour. As for Brother Gao, shouldn't he be guarding the prince the whole time?" The skinny monkey went to bed the earliest last night and had no idea what happened next.
"Go and look for him quickly. Something happened last night." Zhou Chang suddenly became worried.
Based on Gao Yuan's usual style, no matter how late he slept last night, he should have been waiting outside the door early today.
"Yes." The skinny monkey walked away quickly.
Only Zhou Chang and Yuan Qi were left in the room.
Yuan Qi moved aside as soon as Zhou Chang stood up.
Zhou Chang was already dressed, so he was in the mood to explain. He spoke to Yuan Qi's back: "I just drank two extra glasses of sweet wine last night. Nothing happened."
"It's normal to get drunk here." Yuan Qi turned around slowly. Despite the chaos in the room, he was still able to keep his tone normal.
"I tried a medicine called 'Forget Worry Powder'. The shopkeeper Huang San sent two drinking companions. Later, we all got drunk and slept all night in a daze." Looking back now, Zhou Chang felt that the ten thousand silver coins were really wasted.
"It's normal to try out a few gadgets here." Yuan Qi still spoke in a calm tone.
"I didn't do anything with the girls here, really." Zhou Chang didn't know why, but he just wanted to explain to Yuan Qi.
"It's normal to have anything." Yuan Qi smiled faintly, without showing any displeasure.
Yuan Qi's usual attitude made Zhou Chang feel uncomfortable for no reason: "How did you know I was here? And why did you come here?"
"So this is what Yaoyuefang looks like from above." Yuan Qi walked to the window and glanced down before answering, "Yaoyuefang is the Yuan family's business after all. There are still many old people staying here. The news has been sent to the Yuan Mansion. As for why I came... I've already said it before, I was worried that Your Highness didn't bring enough silver."
"Really?" Zhou Chang believed the first half, but the second half was hard to believe.
"Of course..." Yuan Qi smiled.
What she didn't say was that she sent the message to her mother's house last night, and Yuan Yu happened to be rushing back.
Yuan Yu got the news and was so worried that he couldn't rest well the whole night.
As Yuan Qi's father, how could Yuan Yu not be worried when her husband, who had only been married for a month, went to such a sensitive place as Yaoyuefang?
But he didn't say anything all night, and Yuan Qi only found out the next morning when he overheard Yuan Yu sending someone to inquire about the situation.
She didn't know how she felt at the time. Her heart felt like it had been stepped on by a horse, but what qualifications did she have?
However, Yuan Qi couldn't bear to see her father worry, so she forced herself to comfort him and told him not to worry, saying that Prince Yi was just going out to see the world. She also said that if her father didn't believe her, she would go and find Prince Yi back.
Yuan Yu didn't expect that his daughter would comfort him and advise Yuan Qi not to take it to heart.
The two of them persuaded each other, but Yuan Qi became more persistent and really came to Yaoyuefang.
Zhou Chang also felt that there was no place to sit, so he went to the table to find some water to drink. The table was littered with cups and plates, and the water in the teapot thrown aside had already gone cold.
"Your Highness drank too much last night, so he must be thirsty. I'll ask them to bring some more tea." Yuan Qi saw that Zhou Chang was thirsty and walked to the door.
"No, no need. There's no need to delay here. Let's go back now." Zhou Chang picked up the teapot, poured a cup, and was about to drink it, but when he brought it to his mouth, it hit his nose and spilled all over him.
Now I have become a pig-head and even drinking water has become a problem. I really can't afford to lose face.
But my throat was really uncomfortable, so I didn't care about anything else. I picked up the teapot, tilted my head back, and drank a few big gulps directly from the spout. Only then did I feel better.
Yuan Qi looked at her with amusement, took out a handkerchief and wiped the tea off her body: "I didn't expect you to be such a casual person."
Zhou Chang smelled a faint floral scent from Yuan Qi up close, and his heart was moved: "You don't dislike me?"
"What do you dislike? Pig head?" Yuan Qi couldn't help laughing. "Are you really okay? I've only heard of customers getting rashes all over their bodies after eating, but I've never heard of anyone just swelling up like a pig's head."
"Rash? Last time..." Zhou Chang wanted to say that she had a rash because of drinking at the New Year's Eve banquet, but he shouldn't mention it in front of Yuan Qi. "It's not a disease, maybe it's an allergy. It will heal naturally in two days."
"What is allergy?" Yuan Qi had never heard of this word before.
"Allergy means..." Zhou Chang couldn't put it into words, so he could only mumble, "It means that the body can't adapt to the food. I don't know why it only affects the head this time."
Except for his head becoming as big as a bucket, there was no change in Zhou Chang's body.
Yuan Qi didn't care about "allergies" but smiled more freely: "Your Highness, this pig head doesn't look like a disease. It looks fat and white, which is quite interesting."
Zhou Chang used all his strength to shake his head, making his two pig ears flutter left and right, and teased Yuan Qi: "Is it more similar this way?"
"Haha..., yes." Yuan Qi laughed even more happily.
The two were chatting and laughing when there was a knock on the door.
Zhou Chang held his head and quickly hid behind the bed curtains.
Yuan Qi went to open the door and brought in two large curtains, the curtains of which were made of red and green gauze.
Yuan Qi handed the red curtain to Zhou Chang: "Your Highness, put this on, and you won't be afraid of being seen."
"Why are you also...?" Zhou Chang was about to ask why Yuan Qi also wanted to wear this, but suddenly he understood the other party's intention, "Thank you for being willing to be embarrassed with me."
Zhou Chang put it on as he was told, and this fence really helped a lot.
It’s a pity that the head is too big now, so the curtain can only be placed crookedly on the bun.
