Chapter 9: The Prince
Empress Feng didn't answer the second princess Jiang Xuanzhen directly, but asked lightly: "Didn't you just say that you wanted to take a few younger sisters to the Imperial Garden?"
"Yes. Unable to achieve what he wanted to slap the prince, Jiang Xuanzhen lowered her head and pouted secretly.
"Then you can take a few younger sisters to play in the Imperial Garden. ”
Then the minister retired. ”
Empress Feng nodded, and did not forget to advise: "You are an elder sister, you must take good care of a few younger sisters." ”
"Yes, Erchen will definitely take care of his younger sisters. Afterwards, Jiang Xuanzhen took a few princesses to salute Empress Feng again and then withdrew.
The annoying person left, and Cui Zhiwei happily asked Empress Feng, "Aunt Queen, do you still have extra pastries here?"
"What?" Empress Feng asked with a smile, "Are you going to eat now?" or will you eat when you're hungry?"
"It's not that I want to eat," Cui Zhi pouted slightly, "I want to give it to the prince's brother to eat." ”
Empress Feng wanted to say that Jun'er didn't like to eat pastries, but after thinking about it, if this little guy went to deliver it, maybe Jun'er would like it? So she asked Ning Juan, the aunt in charge of Fengxiang Palace, to pack all kinds of pastries and lead Cui Zhiwei to the East Palace.
If Cui Zhiwei's two little short legs walk, I'm afraid that he won't be able to reach the East Palace after dark. Every time she and the Qi family enter the palace, they have a soft sedan chair to serve, and this time they go to the East Palace the same.
Jiang Xuanjun is fifteen years old this year, because Empress Feng was conspired against when she was pregnant with him, and his body was weak from birth. This made him develop the habit of liking silence and not liking to be disturbed, but there were always exceptions.
One is Cui Zhiwei, even if he saw Jiang Xuanjun for the first time, Jiang Xuanjun was very indifferent to her, but it still did not prevent Cui Zhiwei from holding his big ~ leg and calling his brother happily.
What's the matter? My three elder brothers are not enough, so I have to make up a few more? This was Jiang Xuanjun's original idea. But no matter how cold he was to Cui Zhiwei, every time people saw him, he still called him a brother, and when he was a little older, he changed his name to Brother Prince.
Even if you are hard-hearted, there will always be a day when you will be hot. What's more, the other party is still a little cutie like a snow ball.
Over time, Jiang Xuanjun had more and more smiles on his face when he looked at her, and he was also used to her intimacy with him, and he would connive at her to do some things he didn't like.
Empress Feng was kind to Cui Zhiwei, not just to win over the Qi family, but also because Cui Zhiwei could make Jiang Xuanjun happy.
But in addition to this little girl, there is another person who is an exception.
"Cousin, a few days ago, I found a few books in the bookstore, all of which are stories of chivalry and righteousness, violence and peace. Yan Jingnian spoke, and hugged a large stack of books to Jiang Xuanjun's bookcase. His mother Feng is the sister of Empress Feng, and as a cousin, he will often enter the palace to accompany Jiang Xuanjun.
Jiang Xuanjun glanced at it and asked lightly: "You want to see it for yourself, so you bought it in the name of giving it to Gu, right?"
"That ......" Yan Jingnian scratched his head, "Didn't I send it to you after reading it?" ”
"Lonely, don't. Jiang Xuanjun refused, "Take it all away when you leave." ”
"Why?" Yan Jingnian looked up at him in surprise, "You didn't say that last time I brought you a notebook. I thought you liked it, but I don't run to the bookstore these days. "I also let his mother mistake that he has changed it, and every time he asks for money, he gives it happily. When he knew that all he bought was a notebook, he almost discounted his legs. If he hadn't said that he bought it for Jiang Xuanjun, it is estimated that a fat beating would be inevitable.
"Stuff is demoralizing! You usually read more serious books. Jiang Xuanjun rarely used a tone of lesson.
"Why should I read those books?" Yan Jingnian disagreed, "I don't have to take any top exams." ”
"But you have to have real skills. Jiang Xuanjun continued to persuade, "In case Gu is not there one day, you can help Gu take care of his mother." ”
"Bah, what do you mean you're gone?" Yan Jingnian was so angry by Jiang Xuanjun's frustrated words that he almost went berserk, "If you want me to say, it's useless for you to read those books usually." Wouldn't it be better to find a master with high martial arts skills to teach you martial arts and take care of your body?"
Jiang Xuanjun smiled bitterly, "If I could practice martial arts, I would have practiced it a long time ago." "It's not that he doesn't know that practicing martial arts can strengthen his body, but his body and bones really can't bear it.
"Is there no other way?" Yan Jingnian's brows were about to wrinkle in one place, showing a melancholy that did not match his age.
"If there is ...... "Do you have to wait until today?" "Forget it, don't mention those." If you are lonely, you can take those notebooks with you. ”
"Don't, I've only been here for a while, you're going to pick up someone?" by the way," someone who was afraid of being driven away changed the topic, "That little chubby girl from the Cui family and Mrs. Shujing entered the palace together, do you want to go to the queen's aunt to take a look?"
At the mention of Cui Zhiwei, Jiang Xuanjun's pale face was dyed with a smile. Seeing Yan Jingnian's look of anticipation, he teased, "You are the one who wants to see Zhiwei, right?" In the past two years, he has summed up some rules, that is, every time Cui Zhiwei enters the palace, if Yan Jingnian's stinky boy is fine, he will definitely enter the palace later.
"Which one do I want to see the little chubby girl?" Yan Jingnian was a little embarrassed, "She is rarely able to get close to you, so I will ask you." ”
"Lonely is indeed a little tired today, let's do it another day. If you want to see Zhiwei, go to Fengxiang Palace to ask the queen mother for peace. ”
"Are you hiding something from me?" I don't know why? Yan Jingnian felt that Jiang Xuanjun was weird everywhere today.
"No," Jiang Xuanjun denied, "I'm just tired and want to sleep." ”
"Okay then," Yan Jingnian didn't continue to stay in the East Palace, "I'll leave now, you have a good rest." Then he asked, "Do you need to call a doctor to come and take a look?"
"No," Jiang Xuanjun shook his head lightly, "Lonely, this is all ** sick." He added, "I won't send you alone." "I still insist on picking people.
"Then I'll go, I'll see my cousin another day. Although he had doubts, Yan Jingnian still picked up the notebook and walked out.
As soon as he left the door of the study, he heard Cui Zhiwei's joyful voice, which made him ignore the suppressed coughing sound in the study.
"Brother Prince, I've come to see you. ”
Yan Jingnian's eyes lit up, "Little chubby girl." ”
He was ready to greet Cui Zhiwei, but because a stack of books completely blocked his face, Cui Zhiwei avoided him when he came to him, and walked past him.
Entering the study, Cui Zhi** came to Jiang Xuanjun and said with a big wink and a smile: "Brother Prince, I miss you." If you don't come to see me, I'll have to come and see you. The tone was as intimate as ever.
When Jiang Xuanjun saw her, he felt that the whole world had become brighter. Even if she was weak, she still pulled out a smile, raised her hand and touched her head, and said dotingly: "What are you running this girl? Look, there is sweat on your head." ”
After that, he subconsciously touched the placket and wanted to pull out the handkerchief. Thinking of something, she hurriedly withdrew her hand and used her sleeve to wipe the fine sweat on her forehead, and her movements were indescribably gentle.
