; Let's say that in the Tang Mansion, in order to save Minli, Ying Huaizhen had no choice but to make a move, so he lied to Mr. Zhu, and just begged Xiao Tang to think quickly.

When Xiao Tang heard this, he looked at Ying Huaizhen carefully, Ying Huaizhen was most afraid of being stared at by him, he was already weak-hearted, where could he resist being looked at by his eyes that seemed to be able to perceive everything, but he was afraid of revealing his feet, so he had to try his best to make a casual appearance.

Xiao Tang looked at Ying Huaizhen for a moment, then stopped asking, and just smiled lightly.

Ying Huaizhen saw that he was smiling incomprehensibly, and he couldn't see what was going on, so he asked, "Uncle Tang, you don't believe it."

Xiao Tang was looking down at the things on the table, turned around when he heard the words, looked at her with a smile, and said thoughtfully: "Believe in me, naturally believe, what does Xiao Huaizhen do to lie to me?"

When Ying Huaizhen heard the latter sentence, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Xiao Tang turned his gaze away again, and suddenly said, "By the way, I haven't thanked you for the gift you gave me before." ”

Ying Huaizhen didn't expect him to suddenly change the topic, and he was stunned for a while before he understood, and said: "You mean that sachet, that is nothing" muttered, and was a little embarrassed, and said: "I originally wanted to embroider mandarin ducks, but my embroidery is not good, I'm afraid that it will be embroidered, so it's good if Uncle Tang doesn't dislike it." ”

Xiao Tang said: "How can you dislike Mr. Zhu also told me, this kind of incense is very rare" Speaking of this, he stopped.

Ying Huaizhen said: "Yes, I haven't thanked Uncle Tang in person for helping me find Mr."

Xiao Tang smiled: "You don't have to thank you, you thank me again, but I still don't understand, why do you think that Mr. Zhu is about life and death, and you have to look for him."

Ying Huaizhen heard Guo Jianyi say a few words, but because he couldn't think of it, and he met Xiao Tang again, he asked him for help. Seeing Xiao Tang ask, he couldn't help but think about it again, and replied: "I just heard that he is a well-known person who can pinch and calculate, so I wanted to ask him to help me calculate my father's affairs in the south."

While thinking about it, while trying his best to support me, his eyes flickered a little, Xiao Tang saw it in his eyes, but he still just smiled, and said: "It's really right for you, he is really an omnipotent person, and now he is a guest of the Su Wangfu." ”

Ying Huaizhen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I just wanted to find him, but I didn't know that he was in the palace." Speaking of this, he suddenly wondered, he was going to tell Xiao Tang about Minli, but he turned away from talking about it.

Ying Huaizhen was busy and said: "Uncle Xiao Tang, you have to pay attention to Sister Minli's affairs, I also know that this matter is extremely difficult, but"

Xiao Tang saw her eyes full of hope, and then looked at the increasingly gloomy sky outside, and said, "You came in the rain, not to see Minli, but to see me to see me to say these words, right?"

Ying Huaizhen couldn't answer, but Xiao Tang slowly walked to her side, looking at her slightly wet embroidered heels and rain-soaked skirts, his eyes gradually softened, and he sighed softly: "How long has your serious illness been cured, and you are worrying about people again."

Seeing that a strand of her hair seemed to be wet by the rain, she swiped it obliquely on her cheeks and drooped down to her neck

At this moment, I heard someone coughing outside the door and said, "What's the serious matter, I can't finish talking about it?"

Ying Huaizhen heard this sentence at first glance, knowing that it was Lin who was talking, and suddenly saw that Xiao Tang was already in front of him, so he subconsciously took a step back, thinking that since Lin went and returned, everything he should have said was exhausted, whether it was good or bad, what was it, after all, Xiao Tang himself had a number of reads in his heart;.

Therefore, Ying Huaizhen was busy and bowed down, bowed his head and lowered his eyebrows, and said: "Since Uncle Tang knows my intention, please take what I said to heart, and it is not too early, so I will leave." ”

Xiao Tang smiled as early as when he heard Lin's voice, and slowly shook his hand back, and when he saw this, he said, "It's okay, I'll send you out." ”

Ying Huaizhen insisted on refusing and said, "You don't have to send it." With that, he bowed his head and turned around and went out the door.

As soon as he turned around, he saw Lin standing at the door, and when he saw her, he said, "Sister Huaizhen, what's the matter, even I can't tell sù."

Ying Huaizhen smiled slightly and said, "I'm going to leave if there's nothing." My sister took her leave. He didn't look at it any more, but went straight with the maid.

It turned out that Lin Fangcai came out of the study, so he went to see Mrs. Tang, and after gossiping for a while, she said to Mrs. Tang that Ying Huaizhen was here, and she said to Mrs. Tang: "I don't know what is serious, and I have to avoid people." ”

Mrs. Tang naturally smiled and said, "Huaizhen, that kid is sensible, since this is the case, there must be something to say to your brother." ”

Lin pouted, and said: "Aunt probably doesn't know that on the day of my birthday last time, Brother Yi didn't send someone to look for it and didn't find it when he wasn't there all day, what are you doing, it turns out that because Huaizhen is sick, he runs for her all day long." ”

Mrs. Tang nodded slightly, and said, "I vaguely heard Minli talk about this matter, but it is really because Huaizhen's child is annoying, and your brother treats her differently." ”

Lin lowered his head and whispered: "What kind of child, before the Su Wangfu didn't book Minli, wasn't it also the age when I saw her and was about to talk about marriage." ”

When Mrs. Tang heard this, she knew that she was jealous, so she laughed and said: "You really think too much, you are about to get married, what are you doing and you can't fight with Huai Zhen, not to mention that you don't know your brother, where is he the kind of half-hearted person."

When Lin heard this, he laughed again, so he didn't mention the matter again, but after sitting for a quarter of an hour, he saw that the sky was getting darker and darker, so he was still not at ease, so he took his leave and came out to see.

Xiao Tang saw that Ying Huaizhen didn't look back, knowing that she was a meticulous and thoughtful person, after listening to Lin's words, he was a little unhappy when he turned around, so he looked at it and said, "What do you mean by this?"

Lin looked up at him and said, "What do I mean, but it's too late to see it, I'm afraid that it will be inconvenient for her to go back, if she is really reluctant to go, it's good to stay and live in the house."

When Xiao Tang heard this, he became more and more disliked, so he said with a straight face: "You have something to say, think about it and say it again, think about it, can you say it decently, Huaizhen is still young, and it is a good intention to come to me, why do you have to talk like this, if it spreads, will it ruin her name, or ruin your name?"

Lin Dao: "If you care about her name, you don't have to talk to her in the same room for so long."

Xiao Tang was originally an excellent self-cultivation, but when he heard this, he was faintly angry and said, "What did you say?"

Lin regretted his words, so he lowered his head, Xiao Tang took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his chest, and said after a while: "It's not early, girl, let's go back early." ”

Lin listened to such a cold and indifferent tone, knowing that Xiao Tang was really angry, she couldn't help but regret it a little, and a little aggrieved, but she stood still and reads.

Xiao Tang simply called his maid to send off the guest, Lin saw this, and couldn't help but say: "I knew that you were paying attention to her, so I said this, and I didn't say anything directly, you are afraid that she will be wronged and oppose me like this."

When Xiao Tang heard this, he stopped and pointed at her angrily, but when he saw that the maids had come, he no longer reasoned, but just pulled his legs and entered the house.

Unexpectedly, when Lin saw this, he thought that he had said something about Xiao Tang's heart, so he came in and said: "You don't have to hide it from me, that day you knelt down in the Suwang Mansion with a Jianghu Lang for her illness, is there such a thing, who have you come here for, I'm afraid that even if I or Minli are sick and dying, you will not kneel to others."

Seeing that she even knew this, Xiao Tang couldn't help but sneer faintly: "Why should I hide it from you, it's just that you don't have to shout about this kind of thing." ”

Seeing him react like this, Lin became more and more angry and said: "You, you are admitting that you are different from her, when Prince Xi told me before, I still didn't believe you."

When Xiao Tang heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "What did Lord Xi say to you?"

Lin Qing hurriedly said this, and hurriedly covered his mouth with his hand.

Xiao Tang stared into her eyes and said coldly: "Why don't you say when you met Yongmu again, and say some intimate words because it is serious for you and Yongmu to meet in private, and I will be alone if I say two words to Huai Zhen."

Lin was provoked by Xiao Tang, so he said: "Why didn't I meet him in private and be intimate again, but a few days ago he went to my house and accidentally saw him, he just said that you love Huaizhen very much, and it is different from others, saying that Huaizhen is born lovely, and so on, where are the intimate words?"

When Xiao Tang heard this, he couldn't wait to pinch King Xi to death, so he said: "You listened to his words, so I came to suspect that I and Huaizhen why don't you go about it, Zhao Yongmu told you what to do for no reason, he is just a naughty and boring temperament, and I have already engaged to you, so I want to provoke you to be careful, it is better to let you quarrel with me, he smiled and clapped his hands to see the excitement, but you really fell into the scheme." ”

Lin was stunned when he heard these words, and Xiao Tang said again: "That's it, Huaizhen I really cherish it, and it is indeed different from other children, it is the case now, and it will probably be the same in the future." If you are still so uneasy, always suspicious, Hengzhi is still just a marriage at this moment, it is better to talk to the teacher, and tell you to find another reliable and credible person."

Lin listened to what Xiao Tang said so clearly, and he already regretted that he had just made a mistake, so he didn't say anything. Xiao Tang said: "If you don't speak, you just acquiesce"

Lin Cai stomped his feet and said, "You know it's not, why do you always vomit me, I already know it's wrong." ”

The latter sentence was quiet, as if there was nothing.

Xiao Tang looked at her, thinking of Ying Huaizhen's state of leaving, he had the heart to say a few more words, but he just stopped in a flash, and said: "You just go home, if you have nothing to do in the future, you don't have to run to me again, although you have been engaged, in the end you are still a lonely man and a widow, and you are so close before you get married, people who know the details understand that we grew up as children, and those who don't know the details don't know what to say, and go back." ”

Lin saw that he said so much in one go, she had never been unforgiving, although she admitted her mistake in her heart, she was also a little uncomfortable on her face, so she said: "You don't have to drive me, I'll just go by myself, are you willing to come If you don't look at Minli, who cares about you." Flicked his sleeves, and sure enough, he went out angrily.

When Xiao Tang saw her leaving, he called the little maid to come in and hold the lamp, the candlelight was faint, lighting a room that was silent, but the sound of rain was still thin outside the window.

Xiao Tang walked to the window, looked up, knew that Ying Huaizhen was still on the road at this moment, and suddenly raised his hand and stroked it lightly on his chest, through his clothes, he could touch the objects inside, and at this moment, somehow, he could smell a trace of strange incense in this boundless rain, which made people's hearts fluctuate.

Xiao Tang thought about what he had just said, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

After a while, I suddenly thought of her when she said, "I wanted to embroider mandarin ducks, but I was afraid that the embroidery would be broken", the little daughter who was a little shy and cautious couldn't help but sigh, but once she thought of Lin's words, I was afraid that she would sulk because of this and couldn't help but sigh again.

said that Ying Huaizhen said goodbye in a hurry and got into the car, and sure enough, his shoes were wet with the rain, although he was a little wet and uncomfortable, but he could bear it. It's just that when I thought of Lin Fangcai's words, I felt a little uncomfortable.

After thinking about it secretly for a long time, he muttered: "How do you say this, it has caused such suspicion, and it is also the people who know me who say that I am worried, and those who don't know me say that I want something." ”

After reading this sentence in her mouth, the little girl Xiu'er asked, "What did the girl say?"

Ying Huaizhen shook his head, but he also secretly made up his mind in his heart, just thinking: In the future, I will go to the Tang Mansion as little as possible, even if I want to go, in addition to seeing Minli and Mrs. Tang, I must not go to see Xiao Tang alone, you must know that he is already married to Lin, and he is gradually growing up, and he can no longer be as unrestrained as before, not to mention that now Lin is more suspicious of her, it is still serious to avoid suspicion as soon as possible.

Xiu'er saw that Ying Huaizhen was silent, so she leaned on the window and looked out, just because she rarely went out, and only occasionally followed her master out once, relying on the fact that it was dark and raining at the moment, and there were few people on the road, so she was happy to feast her eyes.

was looking at it indiscriminately, and suddenly laughed, Ying Huaizhen asked her what she was laughing at suddenly, Xiu'er turned around and said: "Girl, come and see, there are two people over there, dare to be drunk and roll all over the ground, the ground is full of water, and it looks soaked, isn't it ridiculous?"

Ying Huaizhen listened, then tilted his head slightly and glanced at it, and sure enough, he vaguely saw two people entangled together, one of them seemed to be about to help the one on the ground up, and he couldn't see anything in the twilight, so he just heard the car passing by, and suddenly heard the person outside shouting: "Ling Jingshen, you must be deliberately this king wants to control your sin"

Ying Huaizhen heard this, and was very surprised, but he heard someone outside seem to laugh, and then it was the voice of Zhao Yongmu, the king of Xi, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid that there is someone here here, there is not even a ghost shadow and I am like this, whoever likes to say it will ask them to go."

When Ying Huaizhen heard this, he called to stop.

The two people on the side of the road, sure enough, were King Xi and Ling Jingshen, because they didn't bring a small servant and didn't come by car, they had to go back after eating, King Xi fell carelessly, and broke an umbrella, so Ling Jingshen came to help him.

The two were pulling and laughing, when they suddenly saw a carriage stop in front of them, and a figure slowly came down from the car, carrying the skirt in one hand, and the foot that landed first under the skirt was wearing tender yellow embroidered shoes, as cute and delicate as a flower.

King Xi stopped laughing, and looked at Ling Jingshen, only to see the man holding an umbrella and coming to him, slightly pulling the umbrella back, revealing a familiar face underneath, and his bright eyes were like autumn water in the twilight.

Ying Huaizhen first bowed his knees to King Xi and said, "Your Highness is polite." ”

King Xi was stunned, then smiled and said, "Huaizhen, why are you here?"

Ying Huaizhen glanced at Ling Jingshen before he was about to speak, Ling Jingshen took a few steps to the side by himself, and stood under the eaves of a building behind him, and he actually took the initiative to avoid it.

Ying Huaizhen was trying to avoid him or not, but this matter had something to do with him, but he didn't expect Ling Jingshen to be so knowledgeable, Ying Huaizhen looked at King Xi again, and said, "Last time, Princess Su went to see me, the prince must have known that she wanted to choose the princess?"

King Xi was drenched in water, and the rain fell on his face from time to time, so he simply stepped forward, took the umbrella, and covered both of them in it, before he lowered his eyes and looked at her, and said, "Yes, so what?"

Ying Huaizhen said: "Since this is the case, then you must have known that Sister Minli is also among the candidates."

When King Xi heard this, he understood what Ying Huaizhen wanted to say, raised his head and laughed again, and said: "Xiao Huaizhen, what do you want to tell me, I already knew that you invited us to your car to see how thin you were, and you were not afraid to come out in person, just say it directly, you don't have to beat around the bush and reads;." ”

Ying Huai was sincere and said: "The prince said that there was a way for me to avoid being chosen, since the prince has this heart, why didn't he treat Sister Minli"

When King Xi heard this, he looked at her and laughed sneeringly, Ying Huaizhen's face was slightly hot when he laughed, and said, "The prince only cares about laughing, but I said the wrong thing."

King Xi smiled, sighed, and said, "Huaizhen girl, what you said is not wrong, but you just want to kill me." This king simply told you the truth, even if I have the heart to marry Minli, I can't marry it. ”

Ying Huaizhen really didn't understand this, King Xi nodded, and said: "You little girl, think about it, the Tang family is now generally getting along with everyone, not to mention anything else, just say that it is in the royal family, and there is no need to say it in front of the emperor." At the bottom, they have a very good relationship with the prince, your Uncle Tang and I also grew up together, and we are separated from the Su Wangfu alone, if I marry Min Li again, what do you let the Su King think, and if the Su King gains power, how do you call the Tang family to deal with themselves Their family has been prosperous for a hundred years, and they can't even plan to weigh this little bit, what else is it called the family of the King of the East China Sea?"

Ying Huaizhen listened to King Xi's words, as if he had just woken up from a dream, and only knew at this moment that behind this family matter, there was not only "the words of the matchmaker of the parents' orders", but also many entanglements and stakes.

Ying Huaizhen listened blankly, and really wanted to laugh, either for her previous simplicity, or for Minli's seemingly unchangeable fate, it turned out that she thought that getting married was nothing more than a mutual affection between men and women, but now that she thinks about it, where is something between men and women, it is actually a matter between families, and it is a matter above the court

King Xi looked at her stunned expression, took a deep breath, and said, "Okay, don't think about it, just go home quickly, you are not better than us, it will be bad if you catch a cold." As he spoke, he said, "Come, I'll take you to the car." ”

Ying Huaizhen stopped making a sound, King Xi really accompanied her back to the car, there were few pedestrians on the road at the moment, King Xi put down the umbrella, hugged Ying Huaizhen gently, and sent it directly to the car.

When Ying Huaizhen arrived in the car, he remembered to lean out and said, "Lord, just hold an umbrella." ”

King Xi really held up the umbrella again and waved at her.

The carriage moved forward again, King Xi watched the car disappear into the twilight and rain, still thinking, Ling Jingshen walked to him behind him, got under the umbrella, and said, "Look at the direction, Miss Ying, this is just been to the Tang Mansion."

King Xi nodded, and suddenly said, "It's for Minli's business." ”

Ling Jingshen listened, and after a while, he said "oh", and King Xi turned his head to look at him, and saw that his face was faint, and there was a slight coldness in the twilight.

Suddenly a gust of wind blew, King Xi was soaked, and couldn't help but shiver, King Xi screamed cold, Ling Jingshen was about to take off his clothes to him, King Xi smiled and punched Ling Jingshen, the two of you push me to block, and I was about to go again, I saw a carriage coming in a hurry, and stopped in front of the two, it turned out to be sent by King Xi's Mansion to pick up people, the two people were busy getting into the car, the carriage turned around, and the street was quiet again, only the dusk rain was still dense and non-stop readings;.

and said that Ying Huaizhen returned to the mansion before entering the door, and immediately called someone to call in Bao'er, telling him to hurry up and go to Suwangfu to find Mr. Zhu.

Jin Bao'er said: "What are you going to do with Mr. at this time?"

Ying Huaizhen said: "It's important, you only say that I'm sick again." ”

Jinbao smiled: "This will never be done, what to do to curse yourself in vain, I only say that it is important to try it." ”

Sure enough, she went to Bao'er, Ying Huaizhen waited in the house, just because she lied to Xiao Tang before, she was afraid that Xiao Tang would turn back to Mr. Zhu to confront him, what if she said it, so she wanted to lie with Mr. Zhu first.

Jinbao went for a long time, came back and said: "Mr. said that it is not suitable to run on a rainy day, and tomorrow is a sunny day, and he will come early in the morning." ”

Ying Huaizhen asked urgently: "You didn't say that I was sick again"

Jin Bao'er smiled: "I just tried to say a word, and Mr. said that I was lying, and I dared to say it again if he wanted to hit me in the mouth, so he ran back." ”

When Ying Huaizhen heard this, he had no choice but to wait for tomorrow to talk about it, so he thought about it, even if Xiao Tang wanted to confront him, he probably wouldn't go to King Su's Mansion at night to call Mr. Zhu so he was a little relieved.

That night, Ying Huaizhen had a dream, the dream was vague, how it was not clear in the end, only faintly heard the cry of a woman, vaguely seemed to be Minli Ying Huaizhen thought that Minli was unwilling to marry to Suwangfu, so he wanted to persuade Minli to stop crying, but unexpectedly saw Minli in a very far place, surrounded by a number of people, she couldn't get to her side anyway, she was so anxious that she struggled hard, and finally woke up and opened her eyes, only to see that the sky was full of light, and it was already dawn.

So he hurriedly packed up, sat and waited for Mr. Zhu to come, and asked the little guy to stare at it until the third pole of the sun, and Mr. Zhu staggered to come.

Because Mr. Zhu had saved Ying Huaizhen, he only said that he was a doctor, and everyone on the door also recognized him in those days, so he was taken all the way to the inner courtyard.

Ying Huaizhen couldn't wait for him to enter the door, so he had already greeted him and said, "Why did Mr. come, didn't you say that he would come early in the morning?"

Mr. Zhu smiled calmly: "What's the hurry, this is my early morning." ”

When they entered the house, the maid served tea. Mr. Zhu asked what was the matter. Ying Huaizhen was busy telling Minli about it, and he also told him about lying, and begged Mr. Zhu to lie to him.

Unexpectedly, when Mr. Zhu heard this, he sighed slightly and did not speak.

Ying Huaizhen asked: "Why is Mr. silent" I only thought that Mr. Zhu might not want to, and was about to ask for it again, but Mr. Zhu glanced at her and said, "If I lie to you, it will be my own mouth." ”

Ying Huaizhen was puzzled, so he asked why.

Mr. Zhu said slowly: "Miss Tang's eight characters are my match, and she and the prince are destined to marry. ”

Ying Huaizhen heard this and was stunned.

Mr. Zhu looked at her a few more times, looked at her for a moment, and said, "I see that you have something to do with yourself recently, so you don't have to worry about the rest."

Ying Huaizhen listened, and became more and more stunned, and he didn't know which one to ask first
