Chapter 796: Chapter 574: The National Master Actually Lies Too, Xiao Jinyan Was Caught by the National Master Visiting Little Nine at Night_2

"It’s because of punishment."

Upon hearing "punishment," Ye Yuchen immediately thought of the Crown Prince Ye Yuxi, and he said indignantly, "Why would there be punishment? Did the Crown Prince employ some tricks again?"

Ye Suhuan glanced at the impatient Ye Yuchen and explained, "No, it’s...Master."

Being a disciple of the National Master was something everyone would clamor for, and in the great capital, Ye Suhuan was the only prince who had the National Master as a mentor. At that time, whether it was high officials or members of the Royal Clan, there was no one who didn’t envy or resent him.

"Master..." Ye Yuchen’s eyes widened as he came to a realization, and he said incredulously, "You mean the National Master returned to the palace? How come there is no news at all?"

Ye Suhuan replied, "He just returned yesterday, and I only saw him today. Master doesn’t like a fuss, so he didn’t inform Father Emperor."

"No wonder, I haven’t heard anything at all." Ye Yuchen’s gaze shifted towards his back, and then he asked, "Then why did the National Master punish you?"

Ye Suhuan didn’t hide it from him, "I secretly learned Kung Fu."

Master taught him a lot of Kung Fu, but there were also many things he didn’t teach him. Hypnosis was something he discovered by accident.

After seeing the effects of hypnosis, the temptation was too great, and he couldn’t resist learning it secretly.

He was very cautious, and he didn’t know how Master found out.

Master was always strict with punishments; if his internal power wasn’t deep, he would have been paralyzed and disabled by now.

Although Ye Yuchen felt sympathy for his brother being punished, he didn’t approve of his brother’s actions.

"Your Kung Fu is already so formidable, yet you still secretly learned more? You really are greedy."

Ye Suhuan didn’t argue, for he indeed was greedy, greedy to become stronger, to stand beside Shen Chuwei and give her enough sense of security.

But after the incident of Shen Chuwei’s disappearance, he realized how far he still was from being truly powerful.

"Forget it, what’s done is done, and it can’t be changed. You should focus on healing your injuries first," Ye Yuchen said, not needing to look to guess how severe his injuries were. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to keep still.

When it was time for the evening meal, Shen Chuwei still prepared two extra dishes herself, as the saying goes, to catch a man’s heart, one must first catch his stomach.

Similarly, if you want someone to help you, grabbing their stomach is equivalent to getting halfway there!

Looking at the food on the table, the National Master hadn’t come yet. Considering the National Master’s return to the palace was unknown even to the Emperor, the Imperial Kitchen definitely hadn’t sent food for the National Master.

This was perfect for her to take the opportunity to get closer to the National Master.

Thinking this, Shen Chuwei instructed a little Palace Maid to bring a food container.

The little Palace Maid, without a word, brought the food container. Watching her Master carefully place the dishes into it, she couldn’t help but ask curiously, "Master, what are you doing?"

"I’m having a meal with the National Master. We can’t let him go hungry, right?" Shen Chuwei said, her hands working without pause.

The little Palace Maid nodded in seemingly understanding, "Then wouldn’t it be more convenient to just call the National Master over?"

Shen Chuwei chuckled, "You’re still young, you wouldn’t understand."

Inviting someone over was not as sincere as delivering it to them personally, right?

The little Palace Maid had heard this no less than a hundred times, almost growing callouses on her ears.

How could she not understand?

Shen Chuwei, carrying the food container, rushed outside, only to see the National Master approaching with measured steps.

She hesitated for a moment. Why did the National Master come without an invitation?

Once she snapped out of her daze, she quickly turned around, went back inside, and started placing the dishes from the food container back onto the table.

The little Palace Maid looked confused, "Master, what are you doing now?"

"Don’t talk," Shen Chuwei said, busy with her tasks.

The little Palace Maid immediately clamped her mouth shut.

After Shen Chuwei took the dishes out, she handed the food container to the little Palace Maid and told her to put it far away.

She didn’t have time to say a word, as she caught a glimpse of the National Master’s figure approaching.

She greeted him with a smile, "National Master."

Jun Moqing looked at Shen Chuwei and stroked her head before sitting down at the dining table.

Shen Chuwei, having her head touched by the National Master, stood in place, stunned for a full minute. She glanced at the National Master who had already sat down at the table. Why did he touch my head?

She sat down across from him, filled with puzzlement,

If she’d known he was coming by himself, she wouldn’t have busied herself so much.

"National Master, you didn’t ask the Imperial Kitchen to send food over, did you?"

Jun Moqing replied, "There’s no need for the Imperial Kitchen to send anything, if I’m dining with you."

Shen Chuwei blinked her beautiful big eyes a couple of times, struggling to keep up with the National Master’s train of thought.
