Missed my Presence
Ying Lili was waiting for Sheng Li for lunch when Court Lady Xu said, "Your highness, there is a Committee meeting after lunch hours. I think the Crown Prince had already taken his meals and left for the meeting. You shall also take your meals."
The morning incident had surprised Ying Lili. She did not think that the Crown Prince had planned such a thing last night. "But he was sleeping beside me then when did he plan all this?" Ying Lili murmured. She felt dejected that Sheng Li did not tell her about that.
"I do not want to eat," Ying Lili told Court Lady Xu who did not force the Crown Princess. She called the maidservant who took out the food from there. Ying Lili laid down on the bed. "If the Crown Prince comes, then do not let him enter," Ying Lili pulled the blanket up. Court Lady Xu pulled the curtains down around the bed and walked out from there.
