Covered in mud and water, it was as if he was wearing chains on his body, and his skirt was wrapped around his body, Du Ruo deeply realized what it means to "be struggling".

I saw that she was as slow as a turtle.

Ning Feng said: "Why do you need to go into the water yourself, the quagmire is not deep, are you still afraid that the girl will drown?" ”

"How do you know it's amazing!" Du Ruo said, "If I don't save ......" she suddenly stopped and stared at Ning Feng, "Why did Niangniang send you?" ”

Ning Feng smiled: "Don't you know how to dream, don't you know?" ”

Du Ruo said: "I'm not an immortal. ”

She tugged at her tunic, smelling a smell.

It is said that the lotus flower is not stained by the mud, but now she can understand the smell of the silt, it is really unpleasant, her face is wrinkled, and Ning Feng said: "The most important thing I should do now is to take a bath, it is impossible for the mother to send you to take me there, and besides, I have to change my skirt!" ”

Ning Feng glanced at her, only to see that she was more and more like a mud doll, not at all like the beautiful little girl who had just been on the boat, so he wanted to laugh very much, he said: "I'll wait for you outside, and when you finish cleaning up, I have something to say to you." ”

Du Ruo fell into a mystery and couldn't understand it at all.

But who would dare to falsely tell the queen's will? Even if he is a national teacher, it is impossible.

She followed him to a palace, only to see the word "jade" written on it, compared to the Ciyuan Hall just now, this palace is much smaller, but it is very exquisite, there are palace people in front of the door, and when they see Ning Feng, they are busy saluting, Ning Feng said: "Fetch water to take a bath for this girl, and then go and get a clean skirt, the size is about the same." ”

The two palace people hurriedly went.

It seems that he is very comfortable in this palace, everyone knows him, Du Ruo remembered one more thing: "I remember that you said that you were leaving Chang'an." ”

If she wasn't so persecuted at that time, she would definitely not say it, Ning Feng said: "It was originally like this, but now the plan has changed." ”

With a faint expression, he didn't know whether it was true or not, Du Ruo followed the palace people to the clean room.

Soon warm water arrived, filled with a bath bucket, and Yuzhu washed her beside her, while asking, "Why can't the slave and maid understand what the girl said to the national teacher?" He sighed again, "It turns out that the national teacher is so young, and he was born like this, he really doesn't look like a national teacher." ”

Du Ruo ignored her, she had saved Zhou Huizhao just now, and walked to the palace with great difficulty, she was already too tired to look like a man, soaked in comfortable warm water, and fell asleep with her eyes closed.

It was Yuzhu who washed her and called her, and she woke up.

Coming out of the clean room and walking to the side room, Ning Feng was waiting, he was sitting on the big chair, his hand on the handle of the chair, very lazy.

His eyes turned around her, and he saw that she was wearing a pale cyan palace dress, with an embroidered belt of the same color around her waist, her hair was not combed, and she was half dry and half wet on her shoulders, but she was clean and beautiful that he didn't expect, just like the lotus flower in the pond, growing out of the mud she was covered with just now, and it was indescribably moving.

He said to Yuzhu: "You go out." ”

Yuzhu was a little panicked.

Du Ruo thought that he might be mentioning the dream, so he asked Yuzhu to wait outside.

Seeing that the door was closed, Ning Feng said, "Do you know why Niangniang invited you to come today?" ”

This question is a little strange, Du Ruo said: "Isn't it for flower appreciation?" ”

"So I can see your face."

Du Ruo was startled, her hands clenched, and she quickly thought of the Qin family's intimacy with her today.

Looking at her face, is it difficult to see if she is suitable to be a princess? But how could it be so early? She's only thirteen!

Her face turned pale, and she could see her panic, Ning Feng raised her eyebrows: "It turns out that you don't want to be the princess, but as the eldest son of His Royal Highness, he has a high chance of becoming the prince, and you don't even want to be the crown princess?" As far as I know, you and Your Highness have a good relationship. ”

Du Ruo took a deep breath: "What does this have to do with you?" ”

Ning Feng smiled faintly: "If I tell Niangniang that if you marry His Royal Highness, in the future, Dayan will definitely have a smooth wind and rain, and the country and the people will be safe, then do you think I have anything to do with this?" He leaned slightly to the left, "I was worried that you wouldn't want to, so I let you know in advance." ”

Sounds well-intentioned.

Du Ruo's expression was slightly relaxed.

Ning Feng said: "Anyway, you have come to me for help, and we are some fate, but if I help you, you have to remember not to leak it out, otherwise I am afraid that you and I will not be able to protect our heads." He paused, "Have you ever dreamed about you and Your Highness?" ”

Du Ruo was a little grateful when he saw him helping himself like that, nodded and said, "Yes, I dreamed that he is not a good person." ”

"I see." Ning Feng said, "No wonder you don't like him, it's human nature." ”

He looked gentle, like treating her as a friend, Du Ruo looked at him, and suddenly thought of He Xuan asking her not to approach Ning Feng, he was very strict at that time, it can be seen that his impression of Ning Feng is very bad.

She was a little vigilant again: "Why did you help me, but put yourself in danger?" If it's just because of the things in the Eight Immortals, your people are too good. ”

"I'm a good person." Ning Feng leaned on the big chair and said slowly, "At that time, the army occupied Jin County, and I asked the emperor not to harm the people, and issued an order that anyone who bullied the people, no matter what the official was, would be dealt with by military law immediately, and later in Chang'an, the people could get a comfortable life." ”

This was the first time she had heard of this, and if it was true, it was just that he had accumulated merit.

"But although I am a good person, I also have selfish intentions, and I will help you today because I have a question." He stood up and walked up to her, "Have you ever seen me in a dream?" ”

She looked up at him.

In the half-light and half-darkness, his countenance seemed very warm, like a piece of jade, that kind of rare treasure, which could not be taken off at a glance, and guessed in his heart how much silver it would cost to buy it.

If such a person had appeared in a dream, she would have remembered it, but strangely enough, she had not dreamed of him, as if in the future, she had nothing to do with him.

She shook her head.

Ning Feng's eyebrows raised slightly: "Then you remember, if you dream of me one day, you will have to sue me, and I will keep you safe for the rest of your life." ”

Du Ruo didn't immediately admit it, because she didn't know what Ning Feng would do in her dreams, just like He Xuan, who did such an earth-shattering thing, how could she dare to sue others? If Ning Feng wanted to do the same, or he was even involved in He Xuan, she suddenly thought a lot at this moment.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Ning Feng smiled: "You may still doubt me, I will give you a gift today." He bent down and whispered in her ear, "I will tell Niangniang, you have very bad luck, you went to the Baihe River to watch the boat, sank the boat, this time you watched the lotus, and fell into the river, if you marry Zhao Yu, you will definitely let Dayan suffer a catastrophe." ”

Both of them are facts, Du Ruo was angry and funny when he heard it, but these words were really wonderful, and the Qin family would definitely retreat.

After all, Ning Feng is a national teacher, and what he says, others are easily convinced.

She smiled and said, "Okay, thank you." ”

At that moment, like Qinglan blooming, the fragrance of the room was full, Ning Feng thought that this little girl must be stunning when she grows up, no wonder Zhao Yu wants to marry her, of course, she also has a good father.

He opened the door: "You can now go to the lotus pond to meet the queen." ”

She nodded.

Seeing that she was leaving, he thought about what happened on the boat: "Do you know why the boat shook just now? ”

Du Ruo was stunned.

"Let's go back and think about it." He looked down at her and admonished, "Before I served the emperor, I told fortunes to countless people, and there are not many good people in this world. ”

A vague thought flashed in Du Ruo's heart, and he turned around and walked out of the Jade Palace.

Back in the corridor next to the lotus pond, when Qin saw her again, his expression became a little complicated, and he said lovingly: "You kid is really, hairy, fortunately the pond is not deep, otherwise what would I do?" It's hard to explain to your mother, and you are not allowed to take a boat at this time, so you will be on the shore. She pinched her eyebrows, "I don't know if it's too hot, I'll go and rest for a while, and you and the girls will stay for a while." ”

Du Ruo agreed.

Qin Shi took the palace man's hand and left the corridor and walked into the distance, she glanced back at Du Ruo and let out a long sigh.

Zhou Huizhao didn't show up yet, but Du Xiu walked up to her, raised her eyebrows and said, "I asked you to go with me early in the morning, but now you regret it?" Your sister Zhou is very trouble-inducing, and things will happen wherever you go. ”

Du Ruo naturally heard what she meant, it turned out that Du Xiu had already expected it, but how could it be ......

The national teacher also reminded her, could it really be that Zhou Huizhao did it on purpose, she deliberately wanted to fall into the water?

But why?

She locked her eyebrows tightly, thinking of Zhao Yu standing on the curved bridge, her heart was cold, such a bad man, Zhou Huizhao also wanted to take a fancy to him, and even betrayed their friendship for many years?

At that moment, she was very uncomfortable, and she didn't want to pay attention to Du Xiu's ridicule at all.

Du Rong helped Du Ying over and laughed at her: "Look at you, go and see a lotus flower like this, I would have accompanied you if I knew it." She pulled up her slightly narrower sleeves, and felt more and more funny that she was dressed as a small palace person, "It's pretty too, and if you wear it home, grandmother won't be able to laugh." ”

She spoke in a low voice, and Du Ruo also showed her face slightly, just waiting for her to see Zhou Huizhao coming over, and lowered her eyes again.

Zhou Huizhao was also wearing palace clothes, and said with a smile: "Ruoruo, we are really like siblings." ”

Xie has only one daughter, Du Ruo does treat Zhou Huizhao as a sister, she goes to Zhou's house, Mrs. Zhou is also very good to her, Zhou Huizhao always sends delicious snacks at home, they used to read books together, write together, and grow up together in this troubled world.

I can't believe it's true!

When did Zhao Yu tempt her? Du Ruo remembered that dream, her palm was cold, and she couldn't answer Zhou Huizhao's words.

Seeing that she seemed to be sick, Du Rong hurriedly reached out and stroked her forehead, it was not hot, but very cold, colder than hers, she was taken aback, and immediately asked the palace people to tell the Qin family. The Qin family ordered, and she hurriedly took Du Ying, and Du Ruo left the palace first.

Knowing that she had fallen into the pond, the old lady and Xie invited a doctor to come to Du's house, and she drank the medicinal soup and fell asleep in a groggy state.

But this sleep is not good, she always twists her eyebrows, from time to time to let out a soft hum, Yuzhu and Helan take turns to stay by her side, to the early morning, I saw her suddenly struggled, her cheeks flushed, I don't know if it was a nightmare, Yuzhu hurriedly gently pressed her shoulder, calling her name.

Sweat ran down her forehead and her eyes snapped open.

Yuzhu breathed a sigh of relief: "Is the girl having a nightmare?" ”

She was a little dazed, because it didn't seem to be a nightmare, in the dream, she was standing in front of a bamboo hut in the middle of the bamboo forest, with her back against the bamboo wall, and a man lowered his head and kissed her softly.

As if there was still a soft touch on her lips, she remembered the throbbing of that moment, wanting to escape but not wanting to escape, in a daze, she seemed to see the blue robe, slowly sliding off the person's body, revealing a snow-white middle coat.

Her face turned even redder all of a sudden, how could she dream of such a dream!
