Chapter 11: Anayue

Zhao Xiyue frowned when she saw Shen Chuchu's ugly face, "What's wrong with you?"

Shen Chuchu bit his lip and told the matter.

Zhao Xiyue sank her face, "What do you mean...... The person who killed you at that time may be from the Western Capital?"

"I'm not sure. Shen Chuchu said in a deep voice, "I thought it was just a mountain bandit I met by chance, but I just saw the scimitar worn by these Xidu people on their waists, and I remembered it in a trance." ”

"It seems that your death may not be accidental. ”

Zhao Xiyue looked at Shen Chuchu, "Otherwise, I'll find an excuse to take you back to the palace, I always feel that it is not safe for you to live in the General's Mansion." ”

Zhao Xiyue sighed.

"Fu Heng won't let me go. Even you think that Jiang Chu's death has something to do with me, let alone Fu Heng. ”

Zhao Xiyue was a little irritable, "Then what should I do." ”

"You don't have to worry about me. Shen Chuchu comforted, "Now no one knows my identity except you." Jiang Chu is just an orphan girl, and no one will do anything to her. ”

Zhao Xiyue sighed, "I hope that if something happens, you must come to me." ”

Shen Chuchu nodded, "Naturally." ”

When the two of them went out from the teahouse, it happened that the people in the private room next door also went out, but it happened to be Chen Wanru.

When she saw Zhao Xiyue, her face changed slightly, she pursed her lips, and leaned over slightly, "Ninth Princess." ”

Zhao Xiyue snorted coldly, "I'll tell you." Princess Ben had a conflict with Jiang Chu before, but now we have turned enemies into friends. You know my temper, if you dare to embarrass Jiang Chu again, I won't be polite. ”

Chen Wanru lowered her eyes slightly, "Yes." ”

Shen Chuchu and Zhao Xiyue walked out of the teahouse, and it was already overcast outside, and it was snowing one after another.

Shen Chuchu wrapped the cloak on his body tightly, "I have to go back to the house first." ”

"It's winter hunting in a few days, will you go?"

Shen Chuchu thought for a moment and said uncertainly, "Maybe." ”

Zhao Xiyue hung her head dejectedly, "If you don't go, I'm not bored by myself." ”

Shen Chuchu smiled helplessly, "Okay, I'll do my best." ”

returned to the General's Mansion, but Fu Heng had not returned. Shen Chuchu asked the housekeeper on the side, only saying that the general was still left in the palace, and he didn't know anything else.

It was about time for dinner that Fu Heng returned.

He was still wearing yesterday's coat, and he looked a little tired. Shen Chuchu hesitated for a moment, bit his chopsticks and spoke, "I heard that the princess of the Western Capital is coming to court?"

Fu Heng glanced at her and nodded lightly.

"Why did Princess Xidu come here with such dignity?"

"Next month is His Majesty's 60th birthday, and the princess is here to congratulate you. Fu Heng said lightly.

"Are you just here to congratulate?" Shen Chuchu coughed twice, as if he had unintentionally spoken, "But I heard that the princess seems to have come to kiss." ”

"Probably this is the idea. Fu Heng stopped what he was doing, raised his eyes and frowned, "What do you want to say?"

Shen Chuchu blinked, looking innocent, "No." Don't be careful, general, I'll just ask casually. ”

Fu Heng sneered.

"Do you want to ask, do I have any plans for that princess?"

Shen Chuchu choked.

Is she so obvious?

Since Fu Heng also saw it, she simply broke the jar and broke it, and simply asked, "Does the general have this plan?"

"I......" Fu Heng said slowly, "My plan, why should I tell you?"

Shen Chuchu froze.

Fu Heng put down his chopsticks after eating two bites, got up and asked the little maid to bring things in.

"After two days of winter hunting, you will also go with you, this is the riding suit prepared for you. ”

Shen Chuchu looked at the clothes and was stunned for a moment.

"This ...... Didn't the general say that he hated cyan the most at the last palace banquet?"

Fu Heng said lazily, "I like it again now." ”

Shen Chuchu was speechless.

Why didn't she feel that Fu Heng was so capricious before?

On the day of the winter hunt, Shen Chuchu packed up and changed his clothes early. The cyan riding uniform looks a little more heroic. She was afraid of the cold, so she deliberately asked Cui'er to bring a thick cloak and wrap herself tightly.

Cui'er hated the iron but not the steel of the mouth, "How can the girl look good when she wears it so tightly, how can she get into the eyes of the general if she doesn't dress up?"

Shen Chuchu didn't bother to speak.

She wished that Fu Heng would look at her less, and she would live in fear every day.

The winter hunt was in the royal garden, and it was sealed early in the morning, and Yu Linwei also drove away some large beasts to ensure the emperor's safety.

It's just that the suburbs of Beijing are remote, and you still have to take a carriage to get there.

Shen Chuchu didn't rest well in the past two days, and once he got into the carriage and bumped up, it was even more uncomfortable.

She couldn't help it, she opened the curtain and said to Fu Heng, who was riding a horse on the side, "General, can I go out to take a breath?"

Fu Heng glanced at her and said lightly, "You don't want to sit in the carriage, and you can't ride a horse, what's the matter, are you going to walk?"

"I ......"

Shen Chuchu wanted to say that he could ride a horse with Zhao Xiyue, but who knew that he was interrupted by Fu Heng as soon as he said it.

"I see, you want to ride a horse with me?"

Shen Chuchu choked.

She smiled awkwardly, "Forget the general, I'm still ......"

"It's okay, General Ben promised you. Fu Heng grabbed the horse and raised his chin lightly at Shen Chuchu, "Get out of the car." ”

Shen Chuchu froze.

She got out of the carriage slowly, stood in front of Fu Heng, and said with some hesitation, "General...... Otherwise, forget it. ”

"You're welcome. Fu Heng stretched out his hand and raised his eyebrows, "What, don't you want to go on General Ben's horse?"

Shen Chuchu smiled reluctantly.

She stretched out her hand and was dragged onto the horse by Fu Heng. Fu Heng was behind her, going around her and tugging at the reins. This familiar pose...... Last time at the racecourse, she was cheated by Fu Heng like this!

"General. Shen Chuchu said tremblingly, "You won't suddenly dismount this time, will you?" My leg is not good yet, and when it comes to rainy nights, it hurts faintly. ”

"Don't worry. Fu Heng said lightly.

Shen Chuchu breathed a sigh of relief.

"I heard that you and the Ninth Princess have a good relationship. Fu Heng said as if unintentionally, "What's the matter, didn't she beat you at the palace banquet not long ago?"

Shen Chuchu's body stiffened.

"The ninth princess is a straight person, and there was a little misunderstanding before. We don't know each other now. ”

Fu Heng smiled faintly.

"That's right. ”

Shen Chuchu swallowed his saliva, "It's better for the general to let me down, if I am seen by others, it will damage the general's prestige." ”

"General Ben is not afraid of what you are afraid of. ”

Shen Chuchu was silent.

When he arrived at the camp, Fu Heng was called away by His Majesty. Shen Chuchu didn't have much energy, and was about to go to the tent to rest, but who knew that he was stopped by Zhao Xiyue.

"I just saw it. Zhao Xiyue smiled and said, "Fu Heng is not bad to you." ”

Shen Chuchu waved his hand weakly.

"Where is he good to me, he is not bad to Jiang Chu. ”

"You're just digging into the horns. Zhao Xiyue frowned, "You are Jiang Chu, Jiang Chu is you!"

Shen Chuchu sighed, "I'm still awkward." ”

"Don't think about it so much. Zhao Xiyue dragged Shen Chuchu, "Accompany me to the stable to pick a horse." ”

"I don't know how to ride a horse. ”

Zhao Xiyue was stunned for a moment, and quickly understood what Shen Chuchu meant.

"It's okay, Princess Ben taught you!"

Shen Chuchu thought about it, and just used Zhao Xiyue as an excuse, so he nodded and agreed, and went to the stable with Zhao Xiyue.

"Ninth Princess!" the little girl smiled on his face and pulled out a little white horse, "This horse is docile, and the princess can ride it with confidence." ”

"What's the fun of riding docilely?" Zhao Xiyue looked around and pointed to the black horse in the corner, "That's it?"

"This horse is called Black Wind, and he has the worst temper, and he hasn't been trained yet, so let's change it, princess. The little guy cried.

"That's it! ”

"The horse looks good. ”

A delicate voice came from the side.

Zhao Xiyue frowned, and looked sideways at a veiled woman walking over to the side, "Princess Xidu." ”

"Anayue. The woman blinked, "I know you, you are the Ninth Princess?"

Anayue raised her hand and rubbed the horse's ears, "I like this horse, can the Ninth Princess let me do it?"

Since ancient times, anyone who can snatch things from Zhao Xiyue's hands has never seen anyone except Shen Chuchu.

Zhao Xiyue sneered, "You are also a princess and I am also a princess, why should I give it to you?"

Anayue laughed.

"But I'm a guest, isn't it normal for the host to give things to guests?"

"You're not my guest, so why should I let you? Zhao Xiyue took the horse and said coldly, "I know that you have a good relationship with the Seventh Princess, but if you come to me for her, you will dream!"

Anayue raised her eyebrows, "You think too much, don't you? It's just a horse, and the ninth princess doesn't want to let it go. Actually, I'm not here for you today......"

After a pause, she looked at Shen Chuchu on the side, "I'm here to find you." ”

Shen Chuchu was stunned, "Looking for me?"

Jiang Chu, an orphan daughter from a declining family, how could she still have a relationship with the princess of the Western Capital?

"Your name is Jiang Chu, right?" Anayue smiled and glanced at Shen Chuchu up and down, "I heard that you live in General Fu's mansion?"

It turned out that I came for this.

Shen Chuchu felt funny and angry in her heart, she raised her eyes and glanced at Anayue lightly, and her tone was indifferent, "What does it have to do with you?"

"Doesn't it mean that you North Vietnamese women all abide by the Three Principles and Five Constants? Why did Miss Jiang live in General Fu's mansion before she got married? Is this in order?"

Zhao Xiyue sneered, "Jiang Chu is Fu Heng's cousin, and it makes sense for her to live in Fu Heng's mansion. What are the rules for you, a princess from Nandu, to come to our North Vietnam?"

Anayue said lightly, "Although I am now the princess of Nandu, I may become you Beiyue one day, and it is better to understand all some things as soon as possible." ”

Zhao Xiyue lowered her face, "What do you mean?"

Literally. Okay, since the Ninth Princess doesn't welcome me, I'll leave first, anyway, I'll often meet in the future. In the end, Anayue turned around and left, and before leaving, she glanced at Shen Chuchu deeply.

"It seems that she is really coming for Fu Heng. Zhao Xiyue patted Shen Chuchu, "You have to be careful." ”

"Whatever. Shen Chuchu suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness, "After dealing with this, I have to deal with that, and after leaving a Chen Wanru, there is a princess of Nandu." I'm not a general's wife now, no matter how they toss, it has nothing to do with me. ”

After a pause, Shen Chuchu frowned again, "Why did you suddenly mention the Seventh Princess just now?"

"Have you forgotten? Concubine Rong, the mother of the seventh princess, is a princess who came over from Nandu to kiss her. Counting it, it should also be this Anayue's aunt. ”

The seventh princess Zhao Xining is a sworn enemy of Zhao Xiyue, the two have fought since childhood, and it is not uncommon for Zhao Xining to ask Anna Yue to come over to block Zhao Xiyue.

"That's ......"

"Let's go, let's go horseback riding!"

Shen Chuchu waved his hand, "I'm tired, I'll go back to the camp first." ”

"Chu Chu, what's wrong with you?"

Shen Chuchu shook his head and said nothing.

Zhao Xiyue also saw that she was really innocent, and sighed, "Also, it's been a tiring day, you go and rest first, don't worry about Anayue, there is still me." If she dares to bully you, I will be the first to spare her!"

Shen Chuchu's heart warmed, she raised her head and smiled, "I know." ”

When I returned to the tent, I happened to see Fu Heng.

"Where have you been?" Fu Heng frowned.

"The Ninth Princess asked me to accompany her to pick a horse. The general told me something?"

"Don't wander around. Fu Heng said lightly, "Just rest in the tent." ”

Hearing Fu Heng say this, Shen Chuchu's heart suddenly surged with anger.

"I don't want to wander around. After all, the general has a reputation, and I have to be stopped and questioned everywhere I go. ”

Shen Chuchu has been cautious since he was inexplicably pierced into Jiang Chu's body, especially in the face of Fu Heng, he is even more humble, this is the first time he has shouted with Fu Heng.

Fu Heng was stunned for a moment and frowned slightly, "Something happened." ”

Shen Chuchu took a deep breath.

She suddenly felt so tired.

She raised her head slightly, and spoke again and again, "General, I want to move out of the General's Mansion after I return from this winter hunt." ”
