"Qiao...... Nature is coincidental......"

The sweat on Bai Xianghuan's forehead was about to drip down.

He knew that even if it was a coincidence, there was no such a coincidence.

The girl in front of her smiled brightly, but Bai Xianghuan still didn't dare to look up.

He thought she must be angry that she could ask her that.

"County Lord, you, don't be angry, in the future, I will pay more attention in the future, and I won't cause trouble to the county lord again......"

"But it's already causing trouble, what are you going to do?"

The lord of Rongyang held a few lilies in his arms to be taken to the queen to insert a bottle, and his voice was crisp and pleasant:

"Let me ask you, if I have been taking this road when I enter the palace in the future, will the prince of Chengen still take this way?"

"I, I ......"

Bai Xianghuan raised his head, and the girl's gaze in front of him was clear and calm, as if she was really just asking an insignificant question.

But what does that mean......

According to the rules of etiquette, he should tell the county lord of Rongyang categorically that he will never go this way again in the future.

But he found that he couldn't say this - every time he met this girl with a bright smile in the palace, he was actually, in fact, a little happy in his heart.

"How are you?"

Lord Rongyang asked with a smile.

"I, I don't know ...... either"

couldn't help but say this, Bai Xianghuan instantly felt that his face was too thick, and hurriedly bowed to her again:

"If it is abrupt, please forgive the county lord!"

There was silence between the two for a moment, and Bai Xianghuan heard the cheerful laughter of the county lord of Rongyang:

In fact, there are only a few roads that come and go in the palace, and I am not a road tyrant in folklore, so I can't go this way, I can go, you can't go to Cheng'en Gongzi - I was joking just now, Cheng'en Gongzi doesn't have to take it to heart!"

Bai Xianghuan instantly understood, Lord Rongyang was playing tricks on him like he did in Huaqing Palace that day, right?

But being teased by her like this, showing an embarrassed side in front of her, he didn't have any anger in his heart.

Bai Xianghuan's heart was in turmoil, he mustered up the courage to look at her again, and hurriedly said goodbye:

"In the future, I will try my best to let the county lord in the future and say goodbye!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked quickly, running all the way to a no-man's land, and Bai Xianghuan could not take care of stopping and thinking about it.

He leaned against a kapok tree, and only felt his heart pounding.

She always smiled when she talked to him, so was she happy or angry?

The woman's mind, he can't guess it!

Bai Xianghuan settled down and decided to ask his sister.

Today is the full moon of Xiao Baoheng, the eldest son of the Great Qi Emperor, and the palace is full of moon banquets, and hundreds of civil and military officials above the fourth rank will enter the palace to celebrate.

Although Bai Chenghuan only had to show his face, he didn't have to attend the palace banquet from beginning to end as before, but because he had to entertain the courtiers and their dependents, he was also very busy.

When she was done and Bai Xianghuan told her about it, the banquet was almost over.

"Huan Niang, I'm with Lord Rongyang...... Is it your mother's arrangement? I know you've been worrying about my marriage, but, ......."

Bai Chenghuan looked at Ai Ai's brother, and deliberately frowned:

"But what?"

"Isn't there something wrong with this, if people know about it, it is inevitable that something bad will come out. ”

Bai Xianghuan felt that he was thinking about the reputation of the lord of Rongyang.

"That's ......"

Bai Chenghuan seemed to really ponder for a while, and nodded:

"I see...... You don't like the lord of Rongyang, do you? Since that's the case, then my mother and I won't do this kind of useless work in the future, anyway, a few days ago, Liang Guogong also wanted to marry Rongyang for his fourth son, so I will ask Rongyang what he means, so as not to delay her, what does my brother say?"

Bai Xianghuan was dumbfounded:

"How can this be? I, I didn't say I didn't like ......"

"But you're not sure if you like it or not, do you?"

finally blew up a little bit of his brother's heart, and Bai Chenghuan showed a triumphant smile:

"Since that's the case, brother, then you can go back and think about it. What Liang Guogong mentioned, I will also tell the lord of Rongyang, after all, there are hundreds of women in the family, this is a common thing, she has to pick one, if she likes the fourth son of Liang Guogong's mansion, it is also a good fate. ”

Bai Xianghuan's face turned white immediately, and he stood in front of Bai Chenghuan for a long time before retreating.

Xiao Shaotang saw Bai Xianghuan leaving, so he came over and said with a smile:

"You're too narrow-minded, isn't it good to be a good matchmaker for your eldest brother, what are you doing to embarrass him? It's also because he's an honest man that you're so tricked by you guys. ”

What is the fourth son of the Liang State Mansion, where is this matter.

Bai Chenghuan shook his head:

"You don't understand that...... A person like his brother, if he hadn't provoked him, he would have hesitated for three or five years, and I am afraid that he would not understand his own mind. ”

And on the side of the county lord of Rongyang, Bai Chenghuan felt that at least for now, she didn't hate her brother, as for how to capture her heart, it depended on what her brother thought and how to do it.

Xiao Shaotang didn't care:

"If you really want Rongyang to be your sister-in-law, then it's better to directly make a decree to marry, why bother like this?"

Bai Chenghuan refused this proposal without hesitation:

"The next edict is very simple, but in the end, this is a matter for the two of them, I, as a sister, have always been an outsider, I can help the trouble, but I can't interfere with it. ”

"Otherwise, if the county lord of Rongyang has the slightest reluctance in his heart, then wouldn't I be using the queen's power to make decisions for my brother?"

Xiao Shaotang immediately came to his senses, stretched out his hand and hugged Bai Chenghuan:

"I see, so let it be. ”

As a woman, Huanhuan must hope that the lord of Rongyang can get true happiness, rather than being reluctantly manipulated by others.

It seems that Huanhuan is still a little unwilling to marry him at the beginning.

Xiao Shaotang thought about it in his heart, and felt that it was time to take out the things he had carefully prepared these days to please Bai Chenghuan.

Bai Xianghuan has his own sister who is worried about him, and the county lord of Rongyang is naturally worried about her relatives.

When the full moon banquet of the eldest son of the emperor was dispersed, the lord of Rongyang went out of the palace and returned to the house with his brother Rongping Junwang, and the king of Rongping had been watching his sister.

The gaze that seemed to penetrate everything made the county lord of Rongyang finally unable to hold back after entering the door of the palace.

"Brother, if you have anything you want to ask, just ask. ”

Now that she was seen, she simply broke the jar and broke it.

When King Rongping saw her so direct, he didn't detour:

"Today I heard that you were laughing with the prince of Chengen in the palace. Originally, it didn't hurt for you to laugh a few words, but in the public, such words can reach my ears, do you think, is this a good thing or a bad thing?"

"Is my brother's hope a good thing or a bad thing?"

The county lord of Rongyang heard the sternness in his brother's voice, and a crack appeared in the composure in his eyes.

King Rongping pondered for a moment, and did not hide his thoughts:

"The prince of Cheng'en is not your good match. ”

Since her sister entered the queen's eyes at the spring banquet, she can't count the people who intend to propose marriage to the county king's mansion on one hand.

And the prince of Chengen, although he is the queen's own brother, and his family background and character are still passable, but among the countless noble sons in the capital who have their own advantages, he is really not an outstanding figure.

Moreover, at the spring banquet, the prince of Chengen was also involved with the ladies of the Anguo Mansion.

From a brother's point of view, King Rongping did not think he was a good candidate for his brother-in-law.

The county lord of Rongyang raised his head and looked at his brother:

"Then brother thinks, who is my good match?"

"I think that Qi Mingchuan, the eldest son of the Ministry of Rites, is good, his family background is good, his appearance and character are also good, and he is the same age as you. ”

Qi Mengjue, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, is an upstart promoted by the emperor, which also means that as long as the emperor sits firmly on the throne, Qi Mengjue will not make any big mistakes, and the wealth and power of the Qi family will not fall.

Marrying into such a family, at present, at least can ensure that my sister is stable and worry-free for the rest of her life.

But when the king of Rongping said this, he had to come to the lord of Rongyang with a chuckle.

"Oh, if it's just about family background, about character and appearance, then where is the difference between the sons of Cheng'en Gong? Brother, you also know that no matter how prominent those people's family backgrounds are, they can't be more prominent than us. ”

"My brother doesn't like the prince of Cheng'en, is he afraid that he will be more involved with the queen mother in the future, right?"

The face of the king of Rongping County sank like water, and he couldn't help but scold:

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"I'm not talking nonsense, my brother knows it!"

The originally calm voice of the Rongyang County Lord instantly became sharp:

"Since you reassure me, brother, why don't you have confidence in yourself? If you still can't let go, then it is better for me to marry the prince of Chengen, at least one day in the future, if you are convicted for this, I can still find a way to save your life!"

"Rongyang!"

King Rongping was so angry that his face turned blue, and he snorted, and he suddenly understood in his heart.

"It turns out that you deliberately approached the prince of Cheng'en, did you plan to do this? Do you know what you do? Do you know that if the emperor and empress are a little tougher, we will receive the holy decree to marry you tomorrow!"

King Rongping only felt the indescribable sadness and desolation in his heart:

"Rongyang, our brother and sister depend on each other, for so many years, in your heart, your brother is a person who is selfish enough to trap our county king's mansion in a catastrophe for his own heart?!"

"I know you're not...... But I'm so scared......"

The county lord of Rongyang sensed his brother's anger, and no longer argued with him, but justified his actions a few words:

"I didn't deliberately approach him, but on the day of the spring feast, I thought he was a very good person. ”

"What is the reputation of the Anguo Mansion in the capital, everyone knows, everyone has always been to the Anguo Mansion, and will never rush to lend a hand - but he is different. ”

The county lord of Rongyang plucked up the courage to meet his brother's scrutinizing eyes, and completely confided his heart:

As the queen said, he did not choose to stand by and watch the people of the Anguo Mansion because of various external factors, but spoke up, and for this alone, he was better than the vast majority of nobles in the capital. ”

"Brother, do you remember that in the past, when our Rongping County Mansion was the most depressed? At that time, we were often excluded and bullied, but no one could stand up and say a word for us——"

"So, brother, now that I have met such a person, what is wrong with me wanting to get close to him?"

Listening to his sister say so much in one breath, King Rongping finally determined a few points about her thoughts.

It's just—

"But I think that Qi Mingchuan can be regarded as a righteous man that day. Whether in terms of appearance or age, it is more suitable for you. And the prince of Cheng'en, his personality seems to be a little more wooden than Qi Mingchuan, do you really like such a person, and you don't think about Qi Mingchuan at all?"

"Brother is wrong, Qi Mingchuan is not a righteous man. ”

For the sons and brothers who were present that day, they had already been divided into three, six, nine and so on in the hearts of the county lord of Rongyang, Qi Mingchuan was certainly not bad, but he couldn't see her in the end.

His words and deeds, in my eyes, are more like the limelight of the son's brother, even if he praised the two young ladies of the Anguo Mansion a few words, they only pushed them to the forefront and let others comment. The person who does this impulsively and does not think about the consequences is obviously still a child. ”

King Rongping felt incredible:

"Then just by virtue of this, so many people, you like the prince of Chengen?"

"Now, I don't particularly like him, I just want to get closer to him. But ......"

When it comes to liking the two words, the county lord of Rongyang is still very cautious, but she obviously understands her mind very well, and she also confessed to her brother:

"If I really like him in the future, my brother shouldn't be surprised, just like there are so many different women, you look at the crowd more, and you just like that one, this kind of thing, you can't say. ”

Speaking of which, the king of Rongping also understands his sister's thoughts, and it is probably difficult to break over.

"Well, I don't have much to say as long as you like it. ”

But the king of Rongping still warned his sister:

It's just that this is a lifelong event related to you, whether you like it or not, you must think it through, so as not to regret it in the future. ”

"Well, I know this, so I'm not in a hurry, as long as you're not in a hurry to marry me off, brother, then I'll definitely think about it slowly and think about it carefully. ”

The county lord of Rongyang obediently agreed, and decided that he must test Bai Xianghuan well before making the final decision.

The weather gradually entered the last hot weather, and just a few days after his son's full moon banquet, Xiao Shaotang discussed with Bai Chenghuan the ministers' proposal for the emperor's eldest son:

"When the moon is full, we don't have any rewards for Ah Yong, why don't we wait until Ah Yong is 100 days old, and I will make him the crown prince?"
