I looked up at him, his clear eyes still reflected the little me, his eyebrows were well-grown, gathered but not messy, the corners of his lips were slightly upturned, which matched the straight line of his chin, and his arms were warm and intense......

Yes, I'm envious!

However, when I asked him, I couldn't tell the answer from the bottom of my heart, and I only lowered my eyes.

His voice rang in his ears: "One day, I will make all the women in the world envy you!"

The words are hot, and I can't help but be dazzled!

The second day is a day of rest.

After breakfast, I saw that King Xiao was in a good mood, so I asked him why.

"In order to use the calendar, my father praised me in the court yesterday, saying that I am the most like him. I heard from my mother that my father has also been very fond of my tenth brother recently, and he is very concerned about his schoolwork, and he also personally enlightens him for riding and shooting. ”

"Is this for your sake?" I said with a side smile.

"Actually, it's also because of the "Zhaoming Calendar". Don't say that I'm Lord Fan, my daughter has become the prince's concubine, my son has been appreciated, and Lord Fan's own honor in the court is even more stable. King Xiao said and stretched out his hand to pull me up, and said with a smile: "It's rare to have free today, can I take you out of the house?"

I glanced at the drizzle outside the window: "Does the prince want to take his concubine to enjoy the rain?"

He smiled but didn't answer, took the lotus blue crane that Chifu brought and put it on for me, and took me by the hand and went out.

On the banks of the Manhe River, there are many tourists.

I looked out of the wide carriage window: in the midst of the rain, the eyes were full of greenery, and occasionally I passed a pink flower tree, everything was thriving, containing the tenderness and vitality of spring.

The carriage was in a hurry, and the rain fell on the face, and the moisture carried the fresh smell of grass and trees. I covet the taste of freedom, and I still don't want to put down the curtain.

King Xiao smiled dotingly: "It's a shame to often take you out, and it's still like this." ”

I said angrily: "In the past, Qingzhuo was still there, and there was still a lively talk and joke in the house." Nowadays, there are many boxy people in Manchuria. Sister Liangdi and Sister Xu have to take care of the housekeeping, and you are busy. How can I not be bored?"

As soon as the words fell, the shouts of the horses came from far and near.

I looked and saw two horses coming behind the carriage, very fast,

The first rider was a man in a ginger robe, who looked athletic, skillful and skillful, and the rider who followed closely behind was a girl in red, with a graceful figure and a garment that spread out like flames in the wind.

Both of them are black-haired.

They were followed by dozens of servants on horseback, and at a glance they were clearly dressed, and it seemed that they belonged to different mansions. At this time, the two who had been in the lead had been left far behind.

Onlookers began to applaud the two of them.

I couldn't make out the faces of the two men. Instead, King Xiao leaned over and hugged me, and after looking at it for a while, there was a playful expression on his face: "It's the two of them!" ”

I knew that he had practiced martial arts since he was a child and his eyesight was far better than mine, so he said softly: "Who is it? Good prince, tell the concubine quickly!"

He said, "I'll tell you if it's nice." ”

I glanced at him and whispered, "Okay Shengyao, tell me quickly!"

He laughed, looked at me proudly, and said, "It's the fifth brother—and Miss Xie!"

I was amazed.

How could these two people get together all the way, and still race horses in this kind of favorite place for dignitaries and families!

The two of them came closer, and I looked closely: I saw that the first five princes had obvious embarrassment and a faint trace of anger on their faces, while An Ruo, who was thrown a few feet away, was smiling at the corners of her mouth, with affection in her eyes, and the black green silk coil made a single bun, and a bright yellow peony on her sideburns swayed up and down with the thrashing of the horses, adding more color to her young and delicate face.

I knew in my heart: her appearance was clearly affectionate to the five princes.

With such a slight stunned effort, the Fifth Prince and Xie Anruo had already jumped past the carriage we were slowly marching into.

I looked back at King Xiao and was about to ask him what he knew before, but I saw him looking across the river in distraction. Looking at his line of sight, it was Yao Huatang. Wearing a dark gray robe, he stood under a willow tree by the river, and his face was quite haggard.

I probably saw the frame of King Xiao and me, across the water of the Manhe River, and bowed from afar.

He turned his head again to look at the direction where Xie Anruo and the Fifth Prince had left, and turned to leave.

The back is very lonely.

I glanced at King Xiao and lowered the curtain helplessly.

Love words hurt people, but others can't help them at all.

After a moment of silence, I pondered and said, "The fifth prince already has a wife, and if An Ruo is like this, I'm afraid it's not the idea of the elders of the Xie Mansion." ”

King Xiao nodded and said: "The fifth brother's father-in-law is Zheng Wei, the imperial historian of Taichung, although the official rank is not high, he has quite an official reputation in the court and the opposition. Now the Xie family supports the prince in the court, and the fifth brother and the prince have long fallen out. What's more, the fifth brother and the fifth sister-in-law have a very strong relationship, even if Miss Xie wants to enter the Fifth Prince's Mansion as a side room, the fifth brother may not be willing. ”

He thought for a moment and added: "No one likes to have a pillow person around who may become a fine worker." ”

I silently said: An Ruo's father is the "Baisheng General" Xie Tianda Governor of Daqi, and such an identity is destined that her every move is not recognized by the world as a simple possibility - even if An Ruo is just a simple little daughter to the fifth prince.

It turns out that it is so difficult to like someone in the world.

The time to meet must be just right, not one step earlier or one step later, and to meet the right person, if it is not the person, it will be doomed.

Thinking like this, I couldn't help but say it.

When King Xiao heard this, he took my hand and put it on his lips to imprint a kiss. He said softly: "I'm lucky." ”

My heart throbbed.

At this time, Cuinong said outside the car: "Lord Wang, Zhaoxun, Manhe Liulin has arrived." ”

The Manhe Willow Forest is a sight to behold in Kyoto, and this is the time of year when the scenery is at its most suitable.

Originally, Xiao Dezi and Cuinong each held an oil-paper umbrella and stood behind King Xiao and me, but the further they walked, the narrower they became. King Xiao simply waved away Xiao Dezi, took the oil-paper umbrella in Cuinong's hand, and pulled me beside him, and the two of them walked towards the depths of the willow forest with an umbrella.

The surrounding willow trees are green and green, hanging down thousands of soft tender green branches fluttering in the wind.

King Xiao is wearing an ink-colored feather weave today, and he looks more and more handsome against the backdrop of the two.

I glanced sideways to his left and saw that his left shoulder and sleeve were already covered in rain, condensing into raindrops that were shining on the ink feathers. His lotus blue crane has never been stained by the rain.

I am grateful for his care and carefulness, and I feel that his hand holding my hand is warmer.

At this time, the rain fell heavier, and the original silk rain densed into a transparent rain line, which fell on the oil-paper umbrella and made a porphyry sound. The water falling from the edge of the umbrella was like a beaded curtain, gently enveloping me and him.

His warm lips came up.

The different sounds of rain falling on willow leaves, hitting oil-paper umbrellas, and dipping into the earth are accompanied by the sound of the shallow flow of the river, and the nose is the unique smell of spring, which is charming and intoxicating.
