In the Rongxi Pavilion, it was still the same, Mrs. Xie leaned on the soft pillow on the short couch, and the maid next to her slowly beat her legs with a beauty. She looked lazy in her old age, and when she saw Luo Shi coming over with her two granddaughters, her eyes fell on Xie Yue, "Yue'er is dressed up well today." ”

Yue sat next to him and said with a smile: "The granddaughters of the old lady are naturally good-looking. ”

The old lady loved to listen to this, and even with a little bit of kindness to Xie Xuan, she advised: "The noble concubine Niangniang summoned you to accompany the fifth princess, that is your blessing, how many children of noble families can't ask for it." Yue'er is a good child, and I don't have anything to worry about, but the six girls need to be restrained, and they must not contradict the princess. ”

Xie Xuan secretly thought in his heart that Xie Yue was the only one who usually contradicted the princess, but he didn't bother to argue with the old lady, so he nodded and said, "Remember." ”

"The last time His Royal Highness the King of Jin fell from his horse, it was scary, if you hadn't run to stand by the fence, there wouldn't have been those troubles. This time, remember to listen to the words of the concubine, don't take a single step, and don't provoke right and wrong. ”

"Remembered."

Next to Yue's smile: "The old lady is really heartbroken for her granddaughter, in fact, Xuan Xuan is also a good child, I don't know how many times I have accompanied the fifth princess in the palace before, and I only have rewards when I go back to my mother, and I am full of praise. As he spoke, he beckoned Xie Xuan over and said, "Let my aunt see if your clothes are neat." ”

Her face was kind, still as caring and considerate as in the old days, she looked Xie Xuan up and down, helped her straighten the hairpin, and said with a smile: "There's nothing wrong with it anymore." ”

Xie Xuan used to be ignorant, and at this time, he could be bold and coquettish, but now he feels uncomfortable.

The more the second lady laughed at people and animals, and was close to and caring, the more creepy Xie Xuan felt - a moment ago, she could still love you as a daughter, she was full of love, and she could instigate people to kill you when she turned around, such a person was really terrible!

Forcibly suppressing the disgust and letting the second lady finish dressing up, Xie Xuan tried hard to put on a smiling face, "Thank you, auntie." ”

The old lady Xie was also helping Xie Yue smooth her sleeves, and under the praise of the second lady, her face smiled like a pile of pleated flowers, "That's the mother is self-contained, generous and tolerant, how can a child who is a few years old not make mistakes." Then he instructed the two sisters to say a few more things, and when the palace people sent by Concubine Wan arrived, they sent the sisters into the carriage.

Xie Xuan and Xie Yue are not pleasing to anyone now, and when they sit in the same car, they also look outside and don't speak.

Xie Yue is an arrogant character, when Luo was punished all day long, he was pitiful with red eyes all day, and when he saw Xie Xuan, he wanted to pounce and bite a few bites, but he didn't dare. Now that Luo has returned, although she has been advised by Luo, she doesn't know the stakes in the end, and she still feels that she has her mother's support to bully people, so she gradually stretches her legs apart, squeezing half of Xie Xuan's space.

After all, the space in the carriage was limited, and Xie Yue unscrupulously squeezed it a few times, gradually squeezing Xie Xuan into the corner. Xie Xuan squinted, and then suddenly stretched out his leg and kicked Xie Yue's leg to the side.

Xie Yue was furious, and immediately said, "Xie Xuan, what are you doing!" ”

"Stretch your waist, stretch your legs by the way."

"But you kicked me!"

"Oh, I'm sorry I was negligent." Xie Xuan's mouth was wrong, and his apology was perfunctory.

Where did Xie Yue agree, and said angrily: "You kicked me, just an apology?" ”

"So what? When you bullied me in the past, didn't you just apologize and pass it perfunctory? Xie Xuan frowned, "When Xie Ze was fighting before, Mrs. said that brothers, friends, brothers, brothers, brothers, sisters, brothers, sisters, brothers, sisters, brothers, brothers, sisters, brothers, ”

Xie Yue said a few words of "you, you, you", and couldn't think of words to refute it, because she suffered the boss's loss when the sisters fought last time, and there was no Luo by her side at this time, she didn't have the courage to make trouble, and hummed for a long time before she said angrily: "I tell my aunt in the back, don't sit with you!" ”

"Okay." Xie Xuan looked at her with a smile, "It seems that you didn't listen to half of the old lady's advice." ”

Before leaving, the old lady told the two of them to be obedient and well-behaved, harmonious and considerate, and in front of the palace people, even if it was a little palace maid and a little eunuch, they must not lose their manners. Xie Yue was a little afraid of the fickle old lady, and there was no movement for a long time, until the carriage listened in front of the palace gate, and then snorted heavily at Xie Xuan.

When he got off the carriage, Xie Yue was smiling again.

There is a second lady there, Xie Yue's inconsistency is a piece of cake, Xie Xuan is also happy that she does not cause trouble, so she quietly went to Concubine Wan's palace.

The fifth princess was practicing calligraphy at this time, and her aunt didn't dare to disturb it, so she asked the two of them to wait outside, and when the fifth princess finished practicing the words and listened to the palace people's reply, she walked out happily, "Cousin Xuan, you're here!" Seeing Xie Yue in a blink of an eye, he said, "You're here too." ”

"I've seen the five princesses." Xie Xuan and Xie Yue spoke in unison, and when they saw Concubine Wan who was going out when they heard the sound, they naturally greeted each other again.

Concubine Wan is dressed up very beautifully today, the palace dress of colorful embroidery and gold outlining the graceful figure, a pure gold flying phoenix is obliquely picked out between the black hair, and the pearl tassel is swinging in the ear, which is noble and beautiful. She was dressed in strict clothes and delicate makeup, completely different from the usual homely dress, when Xie Xuan was surprised, he heard her tell the fifth princess: "You play with your cousins first, and I will come back later." ”

"Where is the concubine going?" The fifth princess looked up.

"Go to Zhaoren Palace, your father and the queen will be summoned, you have to pass, Wu'er must be obedient."

"I want to see my father too!"

"My father only came to see you yesterday, and I have something to do today, so let's play with my cousins." Concubine Wan lowered her head and kissed the fifth princess on the face, and said like the Xie Xuan sisters: "You two are sensible and good children, play with Wu'er in this palace first, and wait for me to come back." ”

The fifth princess also said obediently: "Don't worry, concubine." Turning his head, he also rubbed Wan Guifei's face.

Such intimacy fell in his eyes, and Xie Xuan actually rose a little envy.

Concubine Wan was alone in the palace, only the fifth princess relied on, so she always put her at the tip of her heart, afraid of change, afraid of evil, and eager to give her the best things in the world. In her past and present lives, Xie Xuan had never experienced such a mother-daughter affection, even after recognizing Tao, the mother and daughter were unfamiliar and cold, and never thought what it would be like to have such a natural outpouring of true feelings.

sighed in his heart, and when Concubine Wan went out, the two of them followed the fifth princess into play.

But the fifth princess is an active personality after all, and the one in this palace has long been familiar, and after playing for a while, she was a little absent-minded, and she couldn't help but say: "Brother Jin Wang is still recuperating in Leyang Palace, let's go over and play with him, okay?" ”

This question is tantamount to an order, Xie Yue's "not very good......" Before he could say it, the fifth princess had already pulled Xie Xuan outside, and when she turned around and saw that Xie Yue was still standing there, she was dissatisfied: "What are you still doing in a daze!" ”

*

When the three of them arrived at Leyang Palace, it was quiet, and the fifth princess obviously came here often to play, so she blocked a palace person and asked, "What about Yu Niangniang and Brother King Jin?" ”

"Back to the fifth princess, the concubine Niangniang went to Zhaoren Palace, and His Royal Highness King Jin moved to Zichen Palace."

When the three of them heard this, they said to Zichen Palace, and King Jin was half-lying in a recliner with a painting hanging in front of him. There was a tall man standing beside him, about thirty years old, with a jade ribbon on his body, who was the king of Yue, who was known as the stupid prince.

The fifth princess walked in happily, and when she saw King Yue, her footsteps paused, her joy was restrained, and she saluted: "Brother Yuewang." He said sweetly to King Jin again, "Brother King Jin".

Later, Xie Xuan and Xie Yue were surprised and hurriedly saluted.

King Yue was originally standing behind King Jin to look at the painting, but when he saw the fifth princess, he smiled and said, "Hello fifth sister, who are these two people?" "He was in his early thirties, he should have been the year of his establishment, and he should have been more dignified and noble when he was a prince, but it is said that he was frightened and injured his brain when Tiele was hostage, and he spoke slowly, and he was very kind to everyone.

The fifth princess said, "This is my cousin. Then he walked up to King Jin and said, "What is Brother King Jin looking at?" ”

"Brother Yue Wang gave me a painting, and I'm looking at it. Miss Xie Liu, do you want to take a look too, maybe you will like it. King Jin tilted his head and smiled at Xie Xuan. It has only been a month since he was injured, and the person who was originally pampered was so seriously injured that he didn't dare to move lightly at this time, and only waved at her in the recliner.

The fifth princess next to her smiled and said: "It turns out that Brother Yue Wang can also appreciate paintings, I want to take a look!" ”

Xie Xuan had no choice but to walk over, but when he passed by King Yue, he remembered his ruthless methods in his previous life, and couldn't help but bow his head, not daring to have any contact with him-

This is a poisonous snake that is secretly entrenched, and after ascending the throne, Thunder has rectified countless people, half of which are people who have disrespected him or looked down on him at the beginning, and some of them are still grudges after more than ten years, it is said that it is just for the wrong sentence at the time, which shows that this person is too capable of holding grudges and cannot be offended at all.

She moved over with her tail between her legs, stood far away from King Yue, looked at the painting, and praised: "It is indeed a good painting." ”

Xie Yue saw that King Jin was so approachable, and King Yue was known as a straw bag fool, so he was not very afraid, so he followed him at the moment and looked at the painting, but he didn't see any meaning, and began to look at the furnishings in the hall.

King Jin turned his head to look at Xie Xuan, "Miss Xie Liu, you can see it?" ”

"The wild old man misses the shepherd boy, leaning on the staff and waiting for the thorn."

"That's what I've always been fascinated by, and meeting each other is the most peaceful pastoral pleasure." King Jin's eyes lingered on the painting, and then looked at King Yue, "Thank you Brother Yue for bothering to find this painting, although I am in the royal family, I have always liked the countryside, plain and indisputable is my temperament, although the mountains and rivers are magnificent and vast, although the Jin Gejuan is heroic and majestic, the pastoral music is more in line with my heart." ”

King Yue said, "If you like it, it's fine." ”

The fifth princess and Xie Yue next to her obviously had no interest in this, and went around to play elsewhere, Xie Xuan's eyes still fell on the picture scroll, recalling the words of King Jin, and always felt as if they meant something.

It is said that with her shallow understanding of King Jin, such a gentle and peaceful person will be kind when he speaks. He likes this pastoral picture, just praise it, why bother with mountains and rivers? The people in the royal family are unpredictable, and the mountains and rivers are thousands of miles away, and the golden iron horse may not be regarded as a hint of ambition.

So is he confessing his heart to the king of Chaoyue and seeking survival with grievances?

But he was only a twelve-year-old boy, and he had never seen the true face of King Yue at all, so how could he make such a begging for mercy?

Xie Xuan thought about it secretly, and when he saw that the brothers were still watching the picture scroll, he felt that he was thinking too much.

After all, King Yue is a thirty-year-old person, and he has nothing to say to the three teenage girls, so he stood for a while and left, still looking a little stupid, saying goodbye to everyone with a smile, without any arrogance.

Here the five princesses ran to King Jin again and pestered him to tell stories.

King Jin is well-read, although he is only twelve years old, he has a lot of allusions in his belly. He was a romantic person, and sometimes he made up his own story, which can be fascinating. The four of them played in the hall for a long time, and then they listened to the words of the people outside, but it was Yu Guifei and Wan Guifei who came over together.

The two concubines inevitably exchanged pleasantries on the topic of the children, and seeing that the hour was not early, Concubine Wan took the fifth princess and the sisters Xie Xuan and Xie Yue away.

*

In the Zichen Palace, Concubine Yu ordered someone to carry King Jin back to the couch to lie down, and seeing the smile on his lips, she couldn't help but say: "If you really think that this girl from the Xie family is in love, I haven't seen you so happy for this period of time." ”

"It's just rare to meet a girl like this." King Jin seemed to have guessed the concubine's intentions, and did not continue the topic, but said: "It was a painting sent by Brother Yue, and I told him that I like the joy of the countryside and don't like the mountains and rivers in the world." ”

"King Yue?" Yu Guifei was stunned for a moment, "What are you talking about this?" ”

"I can't tell you clearly, I always feel that although Brother Yue Wang looks stupid and stupid, sometimes standing alone with him makes people feel creepy, as if there is a yin wind behind him." King Jin lowered his eyelids, "Erchen was injured this time, everyone guessed that it was the prince's handiwork, but I always felt that it was ...... It seems to have something to do with Brother Yue. ”

"King Yue......" Yu Guifei muttered, "But the three divisions will be interrogated, and the Criminal Department, Dali Temple and Tsing Yi Wei have all carefully investigated, and they have nothing to do with King Yue." ”

"So I'm just guessing, after all, Brother Yue is like this, and he doesn't even have a capable courtier under his hands, so he may not be able to have this means." King Jin sighed in the end, and the mother and son pondered silently.

Outside the Zichen Palace, Concubine Wan and the three girls didn't take a few steps before a little eunuch hurriedly came over, saying that the emperor had summoned her. Concubine Wan had no choice but to ask the palace people to accompany the fifth princess and the Xie Xuan sisters to go back first.

Here Xie Xuan followed behind the fifth princess, and when she saw that she and Xie Yue didn't talk to each other, she felt a little strange, and said tentatively: "The story told by His Royal Highness King Jin today is very interesting, but unfortunately it is not finished, if the princess listens to it all next time, she will tell it to us." ”

"Okay." The fifth princess tilted her head, "I'll only tell you!" ”

This is obviously a quarrel between the two of them, thinking of the situation where the two of them get along today, I am afraid that Xie Yue made an old mistake, and when he saw good things, he first thought about playing by himself, and just now he rushed to offer hospitality in front of King Jin, which made the fifth princess unhappy.

Xie Xuan originally wanted to let Xie Yue suffer some grievances and go back, so he was surprised: "Did the fifth sister make the princess unhappy again?" ”

Xie Yue was a stomach full of grievances, and after being suppressed by the fifth princess for a long time, he held his breath in his heart, and he didn't wait for the city government in the end, so he said angrily: "Where do I dare to provoke the princess!" ”

The fifth princess is an arrogant character, if anyone dares to provoke her, she will be repaid tenfold. She was the proud daughter of the sky, and she would not put Xie Yue in her eyes, and sneered when she heard this: "Look at this grievance, it seems that I have offended you!" ”

The nine-year-old girl's heart was undecided, and she remembered the way Xie Yue had robbed her of King Jin's brother just now, the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and when she reached the halfway point, she ordered: "It's not early, send the two cousins back." By the way, Cousin Xuan, I'll go back to Xie Chi Wenshe next time, and we'll play again then. ”

After saying that, he walked away.

Xie Yue stood there, tears welling up in his eyes.

What does the last sentence of the fifth princess mean!
