Chapter 4: Fate
The girl leaning in front of the desk was sleepy, her curly eyelashes were slightly fanned, there was a touch of tranquility between her eyebrows and eyes, and her breathing was steady, as if she was intoxicated in a dream. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Princess, princess?" the white-bearded master leaned over and patted the girl's arm lightly, squinting at her.
The girl frowned, reluctantly opened her eyes, yawned, and straightened up.
When the princess woke up, the princess hurriedly said, "Princess, you can't doze off anymore, today's homework hasn't been done yet!"
The girl lowered her face and said reluctantly: "Master, can you do it again tomorrow, Princess Ben really doesn't want to do her homework today!"
The princess stuffed the scroll in front of the princess's table and said patiently: "Tomorrow after tomorrow, tomorrow is so many, I will wait for tomorrow, everything will come to ......!"
"Taishi, you have said this truth thousands of times, tens of thousands of times, and the ears of this princess can afford to hear calluses!" the girl covered her ears, frowned at Taishi, and said impatiently.
Taishi shook his head and sighed helplessly.
"Okay, okay, I'll do my homework, let's stop here today, Master, please come back!" the princess got up, saluted the Master, and urged.
The princess wanted to say something, looking at the princess's perfunctory expression, he wanted to say something again, but just shook his head and left.
Seeing that the master was far away, the girl smiled slyly and walked out of the study with brisk steps.

……
In the imperial garden, a young man in Tsing Yi was blowing a jade flute, and the sound of the flute was poignant and moving, like a complaint.
The girl slowed down, crept closer, and tapped the boy on the shoulder.
The boy looked back and smiled gently.
"Anping, have you finished your homework today, why do you have time to come and see me?"
The girl smiled playfully and said, "I happened to pass by the Imperial Garden, and when I saw the third brother here, I came to see you!"
The boy looked at the girl with a quiet gaze.
The girl pulled the boy to sit down at the stone table.
"Third brother, Qing Yunluo hasn't been in the palace for a few days, do you know where he went?" the girl frowned and asked.
The young man lowered his head and smiled, and said, "It turned out that he came to me for Qingyunluo's matter, and I thought that Anping was just coming to see the third brother." ”
The girl's face was slightly red, and she was a little embarrassed and said, "Third brother, it's not! It's just that Qingyunluo is not in the palace, and there is no one to tutor me in my homework." ”
The young man looked at the girl's shy appearance, stopped arguing, and said softly: "Listen to Qingyunluo, he has rented a room at the Tianxiang Inn in the city, and it is possible to be there." ”
Looking at the girl's thoughtful look, the young man said again: "But Anping, you can't go out of the palace to find him without permission, your father will know about it, but I will punish you." ”
The girl hurriedly smiled and said, "No, no, no, how dare I?"
The boy nodded slightly, but he didn't believe it.
The girl looked at the young man staring at her, a little weak, and hurriedly found an excuse to leave here.
The young man looked at the girl's back, shook his head with a smile, and blew the jade flute in his hand again.
……
……
This young man in Tsing Yi is the third prince of the current saint, His Royal Highness Guangxi.
Guangxi is the child born to the emperor's favorite concubine, but unfortunately the concubine has a thin life, and she returned to the west as soon as she gave birth to the prince. So Guangxi grew up under the knees of Queen Wang since he was a child, and fortunately, Queen Wang was gentle and kind, and Guangxi did not receive any unfair treatment.
It's just that, after all, there is no biological mother, Guangxi has been very sensible since he was a child, polite and humble, taciturn, never competing with others for anything, just quietly doing his part, making himself an unobtrusive existence.
Others can only see calmness and gentleness on his face, and only he knows how sad he is behind it.
Guangxi sometimes envy Anping, as the only daughter of her father, and born to the queen, she has been loved by thousands of people since she was born, no matter how flamboyant and willful she is, she can be infinitely indulged, even if she wants the moon in the sky, her father will try his best to take it off for her.
Of course, what Guangxi envies is not the dazzling light on An Ping's body, but that she can be herself as she pleases and have no scruples.
This is almost impossible for Guangxi. Fate taught him to take every step carefully in order not to make mistakes, which is a law he must follow.
Guangxi is in a very awkward position, the crown prince and Princess Anping were both born to the queen, and the mother of the second prince is the sister of the prime minister of the dynasty, Duan Concubine Niangniang. Of the four children, he was the only one who had nothing to rely on.
When he was young, he also tried his best to please Queen Wang, hoping to be favored by the queen's mother. But no matter how hard he tried, no matter how well-behaved and clever he was, the queen mother always treated him with a gentle smile and a polite tone, rather than being as intimate and casual as the prince and Princess Anping.
Gradually, he understood that the sense of distance between the queen mother and him could never be erased. The queen can give him the same treatment as the crown prince and princess, but she will never be able to give him the maternal love he craves, never possible.
After being disappointed, he no longer had hope, and Guangxi became a restrained and reserved person, accepting his fate and taking every step according to the law of fate. Guangxi, there is no choice.
