The dinner was extraordinarily rich, with eighteen dishes and six maids waiting, but there were only two people eating. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Changge deeply felt that it was a waste, she wanted to speak several times, but Meng Xiaocen's rule was to eat and sleep. Therefore, she deliberately made some inappropriate sounds, such as the chewing sound of "let's chirp", kicking the chair and kicking the floor, dry coughing and hiccups, etc., many noises made Meng Xiaocen's eyebrows frown, helpless and funny, "Say it." ”

"What day is it?" Changge pointed to the dishes on the table with chopsticks, and said in a suspicious tone, "There must be something wrong with such a grand ceremony." ”

Meng Xiao Cen Wan'er, warm and smiling, like a spring breeze, "Where is it?" I just want to make up for you. ”

"Okay." Changge thought about it, and with the danger of reversing the scales, he proposed: "It's better to invite the side concubines and ladies of each courtyard to eat together, it's a waste to eat so many dishes." ”

Meng Xiaocen raised his eyebrows and did not speak.

Changge rolled her eyes, feeling bored with herself, she really didn't understand why this person was so cold to the concubine? Do you still miss Suxue? But my mother has been dead for 18 years......

Seeing her fugue appearance, Meng Xiaocen said unhappily: "Dinner." You don't have to worry about the affairs in the backyard of the palace. ”

"I'm too lazy to care about you, I'm ......" Changge's temper came up, and after choking a sentence, he didn't dare to be too presumptuous, so he softened his voice again, "I'm just worried that you're too good to me and cause criticism." ”

"Okay, this king has his own measure." Meng Xiaocen gave her the vegetables, his expression was slightly serious, "You never cared about fame before, and you were never afraid of being suspicious, why is this now?" ”

Changge's lips squirmed, but he didn't say anything, lowered his head and ate the food.

Meng Xiaocen's face turned cold, "Meng De! ”

"The minions are here!" The butler immediately approached.

"Did someone chew on the root of their tongue?"

"This ......" the butler was taken aback, shook his head and said, "The slave has never heard of it."

Meng Xiaocen's eyes were cold, "Please come to the masters of each courtyard!" ”

"Yes......"

"Hey, wait!"

The more Changge listened, the more wrong she felt, she frowned and said, "Lord Wang, what do you want to do?" If you are invited to dinner, then dare to be kind, if you are guilty, you can forget it, no one bullies me, and the ladies of the various courtyards and I are well water and do not violate river water! ”

Her disrespectful words really scared the housekeeper, although she was pampered and arrogant and stubborn bastard in the past, she was quite restrained in front of the prince, and she never dared to question the prince like now!

Smart as a long song, how could she not guess the little Jiujiu in the housekeeper's heart, she couldn't help laughing, waved her hand and said: "Steward Meng, you all go down to rest, let me and the prince eat quietly for a while." ”

When the housekeeper heard this, his face was pale, "Little boy, you can't be too presumptuous......

"Huh?" The end of the long song was raised, and he tilted his head and squinted at Meng Xiaocen, "Otherwise, I'll go to find the offshore." ”

Meng Xiaocen pulled his lips, and his eyebrows showed a moment of loss, but he hid it well, and said coldly: "Meng De, all step down, and no one is allowed to disturb you." ”

"Yes, the minions are retired!" The housekeeper didn't dare to say more, and hurriedly withdrew from the hall with the maid ring.

The flower hall of Nuoda was suddenly empty and unsettling, and Changge silently rehearsed the serious thing she wanted to talk to Meng Xiaocen a few times, but she still couldn't say it for a while, because she couldn't estimate Meng Xiaocen's reaction.

And Meng Xiaocen looked at her for a moment, and his mind was also full of sorrow.

This time Changge returned to China, her subtle changes, even if it was not obvious, he was aware of it, she was no longer as sticky and coquettish to him as she used to be, she was alienating him without a trace.

"Father-in-law." Changge couldn't bear the suppression, and finally opened his mouth first, "I am thinking that the princess is about to enter the palace, I can rely on the favor of my father-in-law and walk sideways in the Jingwang Mansion, but the princess is the eldest daughter of Zuo Xiang, and Zuo Xiang is the most trusted minister of the Great Chu Emperor...... If habits become natural, they will surely cause trouble and trouble for their father-in-law in the future. ”

Meng Xiaocen's eyes gradually became cold, "So, how are you prepared?" Do you guard against arrogance and rashness, abide by the law of respect and humility, and be a well-behaved diner? ”

"No, the country is easy to change, and I can't do it." Changge shook her head, her heart calmed down, and a smile rose on the corner of her lips, "Father-in-law, don't be angry with me." As the saying goes, raising is greater than living, in the past 15 years, you have treated me like a biological father and daughter, in my heart, my father-in-law is also my most respected elder, is my irreplaceable relative. Now, my father-in-law is getting married, and whether my father-in-law has affection for the princess or not, I am sincerely happy for my father-in-law, so I must not make it difficult for my father-in-law......"

"Elders? Close relatives? Meng Xiaocen's expression suddenly became angry, and his eyes staring at her were sharp and angry, "Are you happy that I got married?" Don't you want to kill Zuo Xiang's daughter and replace her? ”

After a long song, his smile gradually froze, "Father-in-law, I was ignorant before, and I caused a lot of trouble to my father-in-law, I'm sorry." I promise I won't ...... it again in the future."

"Meng Changge!"

Meng Xiaocen snorted sharply, "Are you trying to get away with it?" ”

Changge's words were stuck back in her throat, she was stunned, and then whispered slightly timidly, "No, this is my true words, please believe me." ”

Meng Xiaocen was furious, he stared at Changge for a moment, and his tone was very stern, "Put away your apologies and assurances, I don't need it!" Changge, you hear clearly, in this Jingwang Mansion, except for me, no one dares to do anything to you! No matter which woman I marry as a princess, it is just a pawn for me to achieve a great cause, even if I still need to rely on the left minister, but protecting you is my bottom line, no one wants to break my principles! Out of the Jingwang Mansion, looking at the Great Chu Kingdom, from the emperor and the prince, down to the people of Dawn, who doesn't know how important you are to me? I don't allow you to be wronged, I want you to maintain your nature, kind but not cowardly, pampered but not vicious, in the enemy's army to gather the edge, back to the palace is right, you are still you, no need to change for anyone! ”

Hearing this, Changge was extremely moved, and he couldn't help but burst into tears, "Father-in-law, your favor to Changge, Changge has remembered it in my heart!" It is a blessing to be able to get a father-in-law in this life! ”

Seeing this, Meng Xiaocen's cold face softened slightly, he took out a snow-white brocade handkerchief from his sleeve pocket, and gently wiped away his tears for Changge, he whispered, "Ge'er, don't worry, the person who will stand by my side in the future must be you."

A long-lost "song", a sentence full of deep meaning, shook Changge's heart, she grabbed Meng Xiaocen's hand, anxiously just wanted to speak, but her eyes were attracted by the silk handkerchief, she took out the silk handkerchief from his hand, unfolded it in front of her eyes, the whole handkerchief was so clean that there was not even half a point of decoration, except for the two crooked red characters embroidered in the lower right corner: Changge. Memories came one after another, Changge's tears that had not dried up gradually surging again, her lips squirmed, and she opened her mouth in a sneering voice, "Father-in-law, how can this veil be ......?"

"This is your birthday gift to me, you were only eight years old that year, in order to embroider this square handkerchief, your fingers were pricked many times by needles, you think the embroidery is ugly, embarrassed to send me in person, so secretly sandwiched in the birthday gifts of the officials, and later Meng De found it when he counted and sent it to me, I was particularly surprised, Xiao Changge's heart is precious, I feel comforted, and I have brought it with me to this day." When Meng Xiaocen recalled the bits and pieces of the past, his eyebrows and eyes gradually relaxed, and even covered with a layer of soft light, warm as jade.

Changge's mood collapsed, she got up and walked around the dining table, hugged Meng Xiaocen deeply from behind, pressed her face against his broad back, she choked and muttered softly, "Father-in-law, father-in-law......"

Her lack of father's love and worry-free growth are all given by him, how can the importance of this man to her not be deep?

Meng Xiaocen held her hand and patted it gently, his ink-colored pupils were full of pampering, and he smiled softly: "Let's eat first, it won't taste good if it gets cold for a while." ”

"Hmm." Changge nodded, remembering her decision to go into hiding, and remembering that she would no longer be able to accompany Meng Xiaocen to eat in the future, the tip of her nose was sour again, hugged his neck, and said coquettishly: "I want my father-in-law to feed me." ”

Meng Xiaocen was particularly useful for her actions, the smile marks on his face continued to expand, and while his mood was agitated, he actually pulled Changge to sit on his lap, his long arms wrapped around her waist, and then scooped a spoonful of bird's nest and sent it to her mouth, "Eat, this request is for your father-in-law." ”

But such an intimate posture made Changge can't help but feel beyond the ambiguity of family affection, her breath was a little short, and she instinctively wanted to get out of Meng Xiaocen's embrace, so she whispered embarrassedly, "Father-in-law, I am a girl after all, and we are father and daughter, so it is more appropriate for me to sit on the chair." ”

"It's okay, no one will see it." Meng Xiaocen thought she was shy, and smiled to comfort her.

The long song was in a hurry, and some incoherent, "No, it's not, it's me, we ......"

"Girl, I know that you are worried about my marriage to a concubine, but in order to successfully ascend to the crown prince, I have no other choice, can you understand?" Meng Xiaocen put down the spoon, raised Changge's smooth chin lightly with his long fingers, and in her stunned gaze, his warm lips pressed against her soft lips!

Changge was excited, his eyes widened in disbelief, and his brain went blank!

This is the first time Meng Xiaocen kissed Changge, kissing her lips as a man, her stiff body, dull expression, completely unexpected by him, his kiss was very gentle, with the joy of getting a treasure, he said, "Ge'er, you can continue to like me, but if the country is successful, I will marry you." ”
