Since Zhao Jingyi came, he would naturally give face to the Zuyue family, and sat down for a while after the banquet before going to greet Mrs. Tai.

In Chongjin Hall, the Liu family and the Shan family were all there, and Xiao Jinxin obediently stayed behind the Liu family.

I heard Liu say: "Mother, isn't the arrival of the prince today just in line with our previous conjecture?" And the prince doesn't recognize anyone else, so Xin'er is willing to be quiet for a while...... The daughter-in-law heard that the queen mother has already intended to look at others for the prince, you see, the prince will come over later, isn't it ......"

How could anyone present still not hear what it meant, Xiao Jinxin lowered her head even more when she heard this.

Shan slightly hooked the corners of her lips, with an inexplicable smile in her eyes, her sister-in-law was too anxious.

Mrs. Tai twisted the hand of the Buddha beads for a moment, and wondered: "Isn't it the son of the world who doesn't kiss anyone?" I heard that I also ran to the front to find the prince. ”

When Liu Shi heard this, he had an indignant look on his face, "This is to ask the second young lady of our family, Xin'er has a good time with Shizi, she has to lick her face, she just annoys Shizi!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a soft and weak voice from the door.

"Madame, where is this saying, it's the same aunt, the second lady is also enthusiastic and likes the son, so I found some gadgets to give to the prince to play, although the son is young, he can't sit still, and the third lady insists on not letting this screw it."

Mei brought Xiao Jinlan here, and when she arrived at Chongjin Hall, she saluted one by one, and when she arrived in front of Liu, she didn't care about the almost fire-breathing gaze, and apologized in a low voice: "Madame, don't be angry, no matter what, it's the second miss's, if it disturbs the good marriage of the third miss, she can't escape the blame." ”

Xiao Jinlan walked up to Xiao Jinxin and said: "Sister, don't blame, all the mistakes are my sister's fault, I shouldn't disturb my sister and the son of the world without eyes." ”

Liu's suffocated anger did not come out, and Xiao Jinxin did not speak with a cold face.

Mrs. Tai frowned and said, "The two young ladies have not yet decided on marriage, what kind of marriage?" Whose marriage? Can this be said casually? ”

Mei and Xiao Jinlan were silent for a moment.

But Liu was anxious, "Mother! ”

Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Tai's face sank: "You are simply confused, the prince is an in-law, and it is even more common for you to move around each other, what are you doing in a hurry?" Isn't it shameful enough? Shizi is now in Xi'er's place, getting along well, why, think about it. ”

Liu immediately stopped making a sound, and Xiao Jinxin's eyes turned red when she heard this, and she ran out.

Mei Shi and Xiao Jinlan were silent, but the corners of their mouths were raised.

I only heard Mrs. Tai continue: "The prince has a clear heart, if he is intentional, he will speak, if he is unintentional, we will take his own humiliation." The young lady of the Yongning Hou Mansion is already noble, and she doesn't have to learn from the small door and the small household to rush upside down, no matter who it is, she will remember it for the old woman! ”

The sharp eyes looked straight at Liu and Mei at this moment, and the two of them responded respectfully in unison.

After a while, Zhao Jingyi came.

After greeting Mrs. Tai and saying a few words, he was about to leave to pick up Zhao Yuanrong. During this period, the Liu family wanted to speak and stopped, but they were all suppressed by Mrs. Tai with stern eyes.

Seeing Zhao Jingyi get up, Mrs. Tai was about to ask someone to accompany her to Lanyue Xuan, when she heard him refuse lightly, "No need, this king knows the way." ”

From beginning to end, except for the show of enough respect for Mrs. Tai, the rest of the people were alienated and indifferent, and their attitudes were already very obvious.

When everyone had left one by one, the lady leaned back on the cushion with a tired expression.

Although the Rui Wangfu and the Yongning Marquis Mansion are in-laws, if they can marry again, the future of the Yongning Marquis Mansion will be just around the corner.

But this kind of good thing can only be thought about by yourself, and people don't mean that at all.

"It's still too deep......," she sighed, and it was a lie to say that she wasn't disappointed.

Mother Qi stepped forward to rub her temples for Mrs. Tai, and persuaded: "Marriage is predestined, old lady, this is unacceptable." However, after all, the prince of the world retains the blood of the Xiao family, and he will definitely be close to the Hou Mansion in the future, so you don't have to worry too much. ”

Mrs. Tai nodded when she heard this, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's also that the girl is not angry, she puts her mind right, and treats the world with her heart, it is not impossible." ”

Speaking of this, Mother Qi joked: "Old lady, although the prince is not close to the two young ladies, you have never seen how much he likes the young master!" It's stuck all day long, and whoever wants to take him away from the young master is like someone who has a grudge, and his two eyes are staring at him tightly. Later, the young master really had no choice but to bring the prince back to Lanyuexuan, I heard that it was so bad not to cry or make trouble, and even the prince didn't want it. ”

Qi's mother was immediately happy when she remembered that scene.

Mrs. Tai was curious, "It's really a strange temperament, I heard that the front table was also sitting next to Xi'er." ”

"Exactly, everyone thinks it's rare, and seeing that the prince is still very relieved, he sent a long entourage to follow."

Mrs. Tai sat up and smiled, "This is really fate, Xi'er herself is still a child, how can she take care of people." ”

Mother Qi walked to the warm couch, pinched Mrs. Tai's arm and said disapprovingly: "Mrs. Tai is wrong, the prince of the world knows best who is really good to him, our young master who does not boast of being the most sensible and kind-hearted, the doctor is benevolent, his health is not good, and he always saves others, and it is printed in a mold with our third lady." ”

Mrs. Tai nodded again and again, "This is like her mother, kind." ”

Mother Qi immediately responded, and also picked up some things about Lin Xi's mother when she was a child and told Mrs. Tai, listening to Mrs. Tai is sighing: "It would be nice if the girl had Xi'er's temperament." ”

When Zhao Jingyi arrived at Lanyue Xuan, Lin Xi was showing Zhao Yuanrong the Journey to the West comic strip, and the picture was accompanied by a text description, which was told to the child little by little.

Zhao Yuanrong was originally a person who couldn't sit still, but in the face of the comic book he liked, he also sat with his ass twisted for an hour, but Lin Xi asked him to recognize the words below, and he honestly followed to read and write.

I heard the maid at the door report, "The prince is here." One big and one small looked up in unison.

Lin Xi realized that time passed quickly, and it was less than three moments in the blink of an eye.

"Lord Wang."

"Father." When Zhao Yuanrong shouted, his little hand was already tugging at the clothes of his cousin beside him.

Zhao Jingyi came in and nodded at Lin Xi, "I'm annoying Lin Gongzi." ”

Lin Xi arched his hand and said, "The prince is polite." ”

Zhao Jingyi glanced at him twice before turning his gaze to the table, paused, raised the corners of his lips slightly, and turned his head to look at Zhao Yuanrong.

Zhao Yuanrong's little face immediately fell, and seeing his father meant that he was going back, so the hand holding Lin Gongzi's clothes tightened and slowly loosened, and anyone could ignore it, but his father couldn't.

Grasping whether he can see his cousin next time The power of life and death, Zhao Jingyi only needs a meaningful look as soon as he threatens it.

Father and son have a tacit understanding of this these days.

Zhao Yuanrong pursed his mouth, but heard his father say, "Young Master Lin, can you take a step to speak." ”

Lin Xi was slightly stunned, and then nodded, in fact, he also had something to say to Zhao Jingyi.

Now it is the early spring, the branches and buds are new and green, the flowers are blooming, and the scenery of Lanyue Xuan is particularly pleasant.

The two of them don't have to shy away from others when they speak, because they are in this courtyard.

Zhao Jingyi turned around and looked at Lin Xi, unconsciously, the young man's figure had grown a little, and the weather was getting warmer and less heavily wrapped in fur, and he looked quite handsome and slender. The pale little face in my impression is now gradually growing, with a healthy flush on my face, and there is gradually warmth in my heart.

Prince Rui looked at it unconsciously for a long time, until doubts appeared on Lin Xi's face.

What do you do when you say something to him but keep staring at his face?

If this master doesn't speak, he will have something to say.

Before Lin Xi couldn't help but speak, Zhao Jingyi looked away, stood slightly sideways with his hands behind his back, and said with a posture: "Rong'er likes you very much." ”

Yes, as long as the long-eyed ones can see it, he himself is helpless.

Lin Xi cautiously glanced at Zhao Jingyi's face, isn't he jealous and unhappy?

It's just that Zhao Jingyi has a cold face all the year round, and Lin Xi really can't guess what this sentence means, so he has to say: "The prince is young, and he likes new and interesting things, and my painting just happened to be on his eye." The prince has a lot of opportunities, and he rarely has time to accompany him, but the most admired by the prince in the world must be the prince, and he can listen to what you say. ”

Yes, it's all with the powerful threat of "never see your cousin again".

However, Zhao Jingyi did not intend to sue Lin Xi for such a fact that there was no father's authority, but said: "This is very good, I will leave the capital in the next day, so I will entrust Rong'er to you." ”

Lin Xi was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "Where is the prince going?" What is the return date? ”

However, as soon as the words came out, Lin Xi regretted it, how could he manage it so widely, no, why did Prince Rui entrust it to him?

However, before Lin Xi could speak, he heard Zhao Jingyi say: "Three days ago, the north quickly came to report that Hu Nu's 100,000 troops had gathered in the north to threaten Great Xia to return to Dada. ”

"It's going to war!"

Zhao Jingyi nodded, and said coldly: "How can the emperor allow Hu Man to be so provocative, he has ordered me to stand by with the whole army, and I will go north to destroy slaves one day, and it will be announced to the world soon." ”

Sure enough, as long as the war starts, everyone is sure that the commander who leads the troops must be Prince Rui.

"As for the return ......date," Zhao Jingyi sighed slightly, "It's half a year in the shortest, and a year in the most." ”

Lin Xi looked at the man in front of him and was speechless, he was only in his twenties, and in the next life, he was just an ignorant child who had just left school and stepped into society, but Zhao Jingyi had to shoulder the burden of protecting his family and defending the country, and shouldered the hopes of all the people of Daxia.

Even if he has just lost his parents, the grief of the death of his wife and son, and the filial piety clothes on his body have not been taken off, but the emperor needs him, Daxia needs him, and he has to carry the long. Guns on horseback.

Lin Xi's heart softened suddenly, and he took a step forward and bent over and said: "The prince protects the family and defends the country Lin Xi admires, but the battlefield is dangerous, please take care, the prince is still young, and he needs your escort." ”

Just bent his back, Zhao Jingyi had already held his arm, looked down at him, his eyes moved slightly, "Lin Xi, I remember your words, I will not let myself be in danger, you ......" Zhao Jingyi paused slightly, looked at Lin Xi, and suddenly said, "You can wait for me to come back with peace of mind." ”

The last sentence can be called gentle, which made Lin Xi's heart suddenly spread a strange feeling.

"The prince knows it in his heart, and Xi is too worried."

He was about to retreat, but found that the hand holding his arm had not let go, and he couldn't let go of it slightly, Zhao Jingyi suddenly tightened and narrowed the distance between the two, Lin Xi raised his head and saw Zhao Jingyi's lowered gaze, and the strangeness became even more obvious.

As if sensing the danger, Lin Xi couldn't help but take a step back, but he didn't expect Zhao Jingyi to take a big step closer directly, and Lin Xi's face suddenly appeared at a loss, "Lord Wang......"

"Sincerely."

Lin Xi was confused.

Zhao Jingyi took Lin Xi's hand closer, lowered his head, his lips seemed to touch Lin Xi's ears, and he only heard him say in a low and forbearant voice: "This is my word." ”

Lin Xi's eyes widened, and the red heat began to spread from his ears.

"Remember?" The hot breath sprayed directly at the base of the ear, as if it had already touched it.

This...... What does that mean?

Lin Xi's scalp suddenly went numb, and his heart beat like a drum.

Isn't that what it means? But how did you come up with that meaning? But what does it mean if it doesn't!

He lowered his head and stared at the ground, wait, why did Zhao Jingyi mean that!
