"What? he's here again?" When the servant woman came to report, Cheng Qiao had just gotten up and was sitting in front of the vanity mirror and asked Cuiru to comb her hair. Hearing the news of Zhu Xing's visit again, he was immediately shocked.

The servant replied, "I came early in the morning, and now I am sitting in the main hall." ”

Cheng Qiao raised his hand and patted his forehead, and sighed helplessly: "He is treating our Zhuangzi as an inn, come if you want, go if you want!"

Cuiru paused with the hand of the peach wood comb, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid that Zhu Gongzi comes and goes, and the drunkard doesn't mean to be in the bar!"

Cheng Qiao patted the back of her hand: "Don't talk nonsense!"

"Girl...... Look at this...... "The servant woman stood aside, still waiting for her master to make an idea.

Cheng Qiaochang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This person is here, we can't drive people out of the way, right?" ”

"Yes. When the servant woman got the word, she answered and went to the main hall.

Under Cuiru's skillful hands, it didn't take long for Cheng Qiao to finish dressing up and smile with satisfaction in the mirror. Just as I wanted to praise this girl's skills, I heard her smile and say, "Girl,

How about it? Cuiru didn't dress you up quickly and beautifully, and she would definitely not delay you from meeting Zhu Gongzi. ”

The smile on Cheng Qiao's face froze, and he handed her a white eye: "Who sued you and I to see him......"

Cuiru was completely unaffected, and still said with a smile: "I know that you are thin-skinned, girl, in fact, women are pleasing to themselves, what are you embarrassed about?"

"......", she comforted me in turn, Cheng Qiao felt a headache, and had to force herself to go to the front hall to meet the guests.

Zhu Xing wore a gold crown and a dark purple brocade robe with gold edges, which was different from the casual appearance of the previous days, and looked extravagant, just sitting on the chair without saying a word also made people feel that the whole person's compulsion had gone up a layer, but the hem of the brocade robe was still stained with dew, which clearly showed that the owner came from the starry night.

Huang Jin still stayed behind him inch by inch.

Seeing her enter the hall, Zhu Xing's eyes lit up, and he stood up and arched his hand: "Miss Cheng." ”

Cheng Qiao walked up to him and saluted back: "Master Zhu." ”

As soon as she got up, she saw Zhu Xing winking at her, this is to whisper to her! Cheng Qiao understood, waved his hand, and asked the servants and maids in the hall to retreat, and then turned to Cuiru and explained: "Cuiru, you go and close the door, and then guard the door, don't let people approach!"

Although Cuiru was curious about what Zhu Gongzi was going to say to her girl, she obediently retreated, closed the two carved doors, and stood up at the door honestly.

In the hall, only Cheng Qiao and Zhu Xing's master and servant were left, and she said to Zhu Xing: "Is Zhu Gongzi satisfied?"

Zhu Xing nodded, and his eyes did not hide his praise for Cheng Qiao: "The girl is really smart." ”

Cheng Qiao waved his hand at him: "Don't, don't put a high hat on me, what is the matter, you can tell it directly!"

Zhu Xing smiled, regardless of the difference between men and women, and reached out and poked her face: "When did you become so polite as me, I'm really not used to it!"

Cheng Qiao took a step back: "Hey, it's not that the prince is about to be promoted to His Majesty, the little people are afraid!"

Zhu Xing took a step forward and forced his eyes to look at her: "Are you still afraid of me?"

"Don't be afraid now, it's hard to guarantee that you won't be afraid in the future! You must know that people's hearts are unpredictable and the world is impermanent. Maybe the prince and I will have nothing to talk about today, and I will be a great treasure in the future, and I will think of the rude things of the little girl in the past, in case I have to investigate it......"

Cheng Qiao's words were nonsense, but Zhu Xing took it seriously, and actually stretched out his hands to grab her shoulders, and said sternly: "No." No matter how it changes in the future, I will always be the same with the girl. ”

Zhu Xing swore that if Cheng Qiao was really a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, she would not be moved by his words and would automatically throw herself into her arms, but unfortunately she was a young woman who had experience in love, so she would naturally not be deceived by a little fresh meat.

However, talking to herself with this face that was seven or eight points similar to He Yan, Cheng Qiao was inevitably still a little dizzy, of course, she quickly sobered up, and felt that she couldn't pull off her old face, so she had to fake cough twice, turn her head, and not look at Zhu Xing's eyes.

Zhu Xing thought that she still didn't trust herself, so she took out something from her arms and put it in her hand: "If the girl doesn't believe it, you can use this thing as a token." ”

Cheng Qiao looked at the thing in his hand, the jade ring of mutton fat and white jade, and asked in surprise, "Isn't this the one I gave back to you?"

Zhu Xing nodded, his face flushed slightly: "After the girl returned it to the next, she kept it close to her body all the time...... However, I still think it is safest to put it here for the girl. ”

"Okay. Then I'll help you keep it for the time being......" Cheng Qiao put the jade ring in his sleeve pocket.

Zhu Xing stared at her face and stopped talking.

Cheng Qiao was all kinds of uncomfortable by him, and always felt that Zhu Xing was particularly strange this time, so he raised his hand and touched his smooth forehead: "Hey, you don't have a fever! Why do you look weird today?"

Zhu Xing couldn't laugh or cry a little: "Last time it was in Xia Menglang...... However, I really want to marry a girl as a wife, and it is definitely not a temporary idea. When I got back, I thought about the question that the girl asked me, and I didn't know what to say...... Anyway, I just love the feeling of being with you, as if ...... It's like we're supposed to be together. ”

Sweat...... Confessed again. Cheng Qiao's mood is very complicated, she wants to go back to modern times at any time, how can she marry casually? I can only be sorry for the young man in front of her. "The little girl thanks Zhu Gongzi for his wrong love, but I have only been out of marriage for a long time, and I have no plans to get married. ”

I was rejected again. Zhu Xing looked lost, and asked again: "Miss Cheng doesn't think about it anymore?"

Cheng Qiao shook his head and diverted the topic: "Aren't you supposed to go to the capital? Why did you go back to Taowu Town?"

It's okay that she didn't ask, but as soon as she asked this question, Zhu Xing's face became extremely ugly, her lips moved, and she looked like she wanted to say something, and finally sighed and sat back in her chair.

Cheng Qiaoxin said: Could it be that things have changed, and Zhu Xing can't be the emperor anymore? In fact, Cheng Qiao's heart was difficult to connect the young man in front of him with the faint monarch in the history books who only knew the way of cultivation.

Zhu Xing didn't speak, but Huang Jin behind him spoke, and his sharp and feminine voice was particularly awkward in Cheng Qiao's ears.

"Those people in the capital are too much, they dare to bully my master when he is young!" Huang Jin said with righteous indignation.

"What?" Cheng Qiao asked curiously.

Zhu Xing shook his head and said, "It's hard to explain this matter!"

You also bought it for my sister!" Cheng Qiao rolled his eyes: "Then you come slowly." ”

"The holy decree is to let me go to the capital to ascend the throne and succeed to the throne as the emperor as King Xing, but those guys in the Ministry of Rites actually plan to let me enter the Wenhua Hall from the Donghua Gate, obviously to deceive my youth and ignorance, and they are from the domain, and they want to give me a dismount!" Zhu Xing said through gritted teeth.

Cheng Qiao looked dazed, and didn't understand the difference between which door Zhu Xing said to enter and which hall he lived in.

Seeing this, Zhu Xing patiently explained: "Donghua Gate entered the Wenhua Palace, that is the identity of the prince, but the first emperor is just my cousin, doesn't this make me a generation shorter?"

"I see. Cheng Qiao suddenly said, "What about the holy decree?

"The edict of the first emperor and the edict of the empress dowager only said that I would be the heir to the throne, but they did not say that I should be the prince. Zhu Xing replied.

"Since you took advantage of it, didn't you tell them about it?" Cheng Qiao asked again.

"That's it. I proposed to them that I should enter directly from the Daming Gate and succeed directly in the Fengtian Palace, but those guys actually ignored my request and still let me enter the Wenhua Hall as a prince......"

"This is too much, isn't it!" Cheng Qiao, who understood, couldn't help but exclaim, "Who could come up with such an idea?"

Zhu Xing slapped on the coffee table beside him: "Besides our Yang Shoufu, who has the sole power, who else can there be?"

"And then?" Cheng Qiao continued.

"Then?" Zhu Xing snorted coldly, "Since the two sides can't get along, I shouldn't be the emperor!

That's what happened. Cheng Qiao figured out the cause and effect, frowned and walked around the hall, as if thinking, and when he came back, his frowning brows relaxed, and said to Zhu Xing: "Since you have taken advantage of the reason, you are still afraid that they will do something! This emperor...... If you don't want to be inappropriate, what can they do to you? No matter how powerful Yang Shoufu is, if the new monarch doesn't come, when the time comes, those old ministers in the capital who are waiting for the new emperor to ascend the throne must not be in a hurry, can Shoufu alone withstand the pressure of the ministers?"

After listening to her words, Zhu Xing excitedly held her hand: "Miss Cheng really went to a place with me." ”

Cheng Qiao coughed twice, his face was a little hot, and he quickly withdrew his hand. Zhu Xing didn't mind, turned his head to Huang Jin behind him and ordered: "Do you understand what Miss Cheng said? Huang Banban, it's hard for you to make a trip, go and tell the uncles who came to the capital, if you don't agree to the king's request, the king won't enter the capital!"

Huang Jin quietly wiped a cold sweat, the bitterness in his heart, Lord Wang, you avoid them and the beloved girl are so unromantic, but the minions are bitter, those Beijing officials all have their nostrils facing the sky, but it is difficult to wait. Although he complained in his heart, he had to calmly accept the task assigned to him by Zhu Xing.

After Huang Jin left, Zhu Xing settled in Cheng Qiao's house with peace of mind.

After Huang Jin left for three days, he came back again, this time bringing good news, just like Cheng Qiao's previous analysis, the new emperor was not there, and Lord Yang, the first assistant of the cabinet, failed to withstand the pressure from the ministers and the queen mother, and finally compromised with him, allowing Zhu Xing and his party to enter the city from Daming Gate and succeed directly in the Fengtian Palace.

After the trouble was resolved, Zhu Xing had no reason to continue to stay at Cheng's house, so he reluctantly said goodbye to Cheng Qiao, and before leaving, he solemnly asked Cheng Qiao again if he was willing to marry him.

If Cheng Qiao was a primitive ancient girl, the other party would have been taken down a long time ago if she was so sincere, but she was a modern woman, and the person she was worried about was He Yan, so she had to ruthlessly reject the other party again.

Zhu Xing was not discouraged, and asked Cheng Qiao to think about it, he would come again if he had the chance.

Cheng Qiao waved goodbye to him, and said in his heart: "When you become the emperor, how can you still have time to run around, and the three thousand beauties of the harem are enough for you to bear, and you will definitely not remember me when the time comes!"

I didn't think about it, so I didn't take Zhu Xing's words to heart. When his car drove away, Cheng Qiao said silently: "You won't go back this time, right?"

I came to the backyard full of joy, thinking that Tanshui could bring me back to modern times, and then tried many times, but Tanshui still didn't respond. Cheng Qiao sat down on the ground in disappointment and sighed, "Isn't the time yet come?"
