Chapter 212: Pride

The people of the Huiyin Hall were overjoyed to see the prince who stopped at the gate of the palace, and they were even more excited when they found that Shengyao had also entered the Huiyin Hall to dine together. Together with the small dining room, they tried their best to please this prince, His Royal Highness the Prince, who had locked the Huiyin Palace for nearly two months.

I saw Cuinong put a bowl of mullet egg soup in front of Sheng Yao, and I was even more angry.

He glanced at me with a faint look in his eyes, and instructed Cuinong: "Serve it to the lonely king." After Cui Nong added a bowl, he slowly began to drink the soup. Occasionally, he praised casually: "It's really good." Little Dezi, the people in this dining room should be rewarded. He glanced at Cui Nong, who was glared at by me twice, but pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "This maid is also rewarded." ”

Xiao Dezi, who was beside him, bowed down and smiled, and responded.

At this point, I still didn't understand that he was deliberately trying to tease me. Slanted his eyes slightly, bowed his head and ate silently.

After the tea break, the room suddenly fell silent. I stood in front of the bookcase, and I seemed to be very attentive with a handkerchief to wipe the verdant leaves of the calamus. Yesterday, Ruyi said that he wanted to pot iris with the Jialing Temple, and today the Jialing Temple sent it. But although there were many calamus leaves, I slowly wiped them one by one—there was nothing to wipe at first, but I didn't look at him when I was looking for something to do.

Sheng Yao sat under the window, not knowing what he was doing.

When the palace people saw us like this, they had already withdrawn.

I was looking at him out of the corner of my eye, and he said, "Come here." ”

I walked over as I was told, his misty eyes brushing over my face, and he stretched out his arms and sat me on his lap. The deep voice was slightly teasing, "It's only been two months, and you've been here for the lonely king?"

He didn't say that it was okay, I was still angry with him for not taking into account my feelings that day, and now I am like this, as if I have never had such a fierce dispute and injury, and I have never been ruthlessly locked in the Huiyin Palace!

I couldn't help but glance at him fiercely!

Sheng Yao deliberately said again: "Shicai is in front of the queen mother, aren't you still coaxing me?"

I looked at the corners of his slightly curled lips, and couldn't help but say, "Your Highness is so ruthless!"

He furrowed Ying's thick eyebrows, "What else do you say?" What did you say in front of Princess Wei that King Gu is not your beloved, isn't King Gu uncomfortable?"

I raised my eyebrows, "Ruan Liangdi told His Highness?"

"What kind of expression do you have?" he couldn't help but rub my eyebrows amusedly, "Ruan Liangdi said this that day to persuade me to let go, after all, I thought you had escaped with them." Later, she came to explain the misunderstanding, and showed me the letter you discarded—"

I suddenly shook my face: those discarded letters, although I can't remember what they wrote, must not be faceless words. There are some confessional words that seem to be quite disrespectful and unreserved!

He pulled my hand down, showed his eyes to look at him, and saw that I still looked aggrieved, and his voice softened: "Even if it's not mine this time, okay?"

I looked at him sideways and said, "Why did Your Highness mind so much that day?"

"Because I care about you. He replied as a matter of course.

I froze for a moment.

After a while, we asked again, "Does Your Highness mind if I am Gu Mingyan?"

"Why do you knowingly ask? I said earlier, it doesn't matter which daughter you are, what matters is that you are by my side. His fingers slid over my face, "Why are you so skinny!"

My heart was sour, and I avoided his hand at first, "Why do you say?"

He hugged me tighter and said, "Do you really not know about the Xie family?"

It's a piercing statement. I was about to get off his lap, but my arms were restrained and I couldn't move. His face immediately turned red, "Your Highness still doubts me?"

He was careful and said, "No, it's not your fault. It's just that I know that your temperament is affectionate and righteous, and you will definitely not be able to break off your kindness and righteousness to the Xie family for a while. ”

I couldn't do it. I can let go of the love for Changruo since I was a child and cherish it in the corner of my heart. But I really can't be indifferent to the things that are vital to the Xie family's lives. However, this does not mean that I will turn my head and kill the Sheng family for the sake of the Xie family.

I looked straight into his eyes and said very seriously: "Since I know that my nature is affectionate and righteous, then Your Highness should know that I treat Your Highness the same." Why bother to tempt your concubines again?"

He was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Okay." I know. He muttered with relief: "It's me who is looking at the tip of the horns." Anyway, you're already mine! No matter how much thought and tricks others try, it will be in vain. ”

I glanced at him and asked unwillingly: "Since His Royal Highness read the letter that Ruan Liangdi took, why did he treat Xiaoguan coldly when he met him in the garden and in the palace of the mother queen before?"

Sheng Yao looked at me and didn't speak, but there seemed to be a suspicious flush on his face. After a while, Fang said: "In short, it's all my fault, tired and tired of you sad and haggard." Don't be angry, okay?"

I looked at his clear eyes, and in an instant I realized that after he knew that he was wrong to blame me, he couldn't save face for a while, didn't know how to turn around, so he simply pretended to be cold?

This man is so proud that it makes people annoyed!

In turn, he couldn't help but be soft-hearted to excuse him -- well, who made him the proud son of heaven and the prince of the country! Naturally, he can be willful, he can be domineering, and he can also be obsessed with and calculating about the past before others entered the palace.

I suddenly remembered something and asked, "Your Highness—how do you know that I am Gu Mingyan?"

His eyes were bright and full of affection, and after listening to my words, his eyes seemed to be clear and clear sky covered by flowing clouds, and he said with a smile: "You are so attentive to Prince Mingju, I can't think of anyone who will defend him like this except for his sister-in-law." ”

I was still confused, frowning slightly and about to ask for more details, when he reached into the hem of my garment.

I froze suddenly, my face was as hot as boiling water, and I scolded, "You!"

He raised his eyebrows and smiled, took out the phoenix-patterned jade pendant from my shirt, and said, "I will wear this to you that day, you will wear it well." I squinted at him slightly, "Haven't people been wearing it all the time?" ”

He asked in a low voice, "In the future, if you are by my side, will you return to the Gu family?"

I was happy in my heart, but after thinking about it for a while, I shook my head and said, "The concubines and fathers are still on the road and have not yet established themselves in Beijing. Now that there are many wartime affairs, if you want to restore my Gu background, you must go to the Queen Mother, my father, and my mother, so that they can cause more trouble. And I have just sealed Liangyuan, if I let the people in the palace add another handle, I am afraid that the chaos will not stop. ”

I looked at him, with a smile on the corner of my mouth: "The concubine is by His Royal Highness's side, and if His Highness treats him sincerely, he is the identity of His Highness's sweetheart." This identity is incomparably valuable, so what's the matter if you can't return to the Gu family for the time being?"
