The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1657

Chapter 1657: 801 first watch

In the dead of night, a sudden thunderclap echoed through Shengdu of Yan Country.

The Little Princess had eaten too many grapes before bed and was woken up by the urge to pee in the middle of the night.

She opened her eyes and said, "Mama, I need to pee."

No one responded to her.

She lay in her little bed for a while, but she couldn’t hold it anymore. She had to get up by herself.

The Little Princess was a very disciplined young lady. She hadn’t wet the bed since she was two years old and decided to go pee by herself.

But the flashes of lightning and thunder outside made her a little scared.

"Uncle, Uncle."

She called out twice while sitting under her tiny mosquito net, but still, no one answered her.

She really, really couldn’t hold it any longer.

Her little face scrunched up as she tried hard to hold in her pee. She slid off the bed, walking barefoot on the floor, calling out, "Eunuch Zhang..."

The people in the Sleeping Palace seemed to have all run out. The Grand Hall, lit sporadically by flashes of lightning, was left with just her, standing alone on the floor, like a pitiful little doll.

Suddenly, a figure dressed in a Dragon Robe walked in from the entrance.

He walked against the moonlight, looking eerie under the sudden flashes of lightning.

To the Little Princess, her towering uncle was intimidating, and she shivered in fear.

... She peed.

During the night, there was a thunderstorm, making the early morning weather much cooler.

Xiaojing had not officially moved into the Duke Residence, only coming over occasionally. He didn’t come last night.

The grandaunt and Gu Yan were sleeping in late as usual in their rooms. Gu Xiaoshun and Master Lu had woken up early to practice woodworking. Gu Xiaoshun had an amazing talent, and Master Lu was no longer content to teach him simple craftsman skills, now slowly introducing him to various mechanical techniques.

Trustworthy servants were looking after the Courtyard, so Madam Nan did not need to cook. She had gone out early to gather herbs.

The Duke came over to have breakfast with Gu Jiao, Gu Xiaoshun, and Master Lu.

Recently, people had been trying to pry information from the servants in the Duke Residence, and some unknown individuals had been lurking around the entrance, possibly because news had leaked from Miao Ruoxin, arousing the Han Family’s suspicion.
