If you have one heart, you will never be separated. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The eyes of the Nine Princes are like the dark night sky, deep and bottomless.

Xia Ruqian looked straight into it like this.

As if bewitched, I can't take my eyes off it.

The prince is just a show. Can't be taken seriously.

Xia Ruqian told herself over and over again.

But my heart was still pounding.

"What? What are you talking about! The Queen Mother was so angry by the words of the Ninth Prince, she immediately stood up and asked loudly: "Could it be that you won't marry other women in this life?!" ā€

As soon as the Queen Mother said this, everyone was in an uproar.

Ning Qing's nails dug into the flesh, biting his lip and not allowing tears to stay.

The emperor drank the wine and blocked a smile on his lips.

It seems that Xia Ruqian's plan is very smooth, and he captured Lao Jiu's heart so quickly. This chess piece can be used in the future!

The emperor stood up and said haha: "The queen mother is too worried, Lao Jiu and the princess are newly married Yan'er, it is normal to be like glue, since Lao Jiu does not have that mind now, it will be the same in the future!" The queen mother doesn't have to worry. ā€

Mama Li leaned over and whispered comfort: "The Queen Mother is angry, so many people are watching, if the Queen Mother is forced to force each other, the prince will drill the tip of the horns again, and directly say that he will never marry again, wouldn't the gains outweigh the losses." ā€

The Queen Mother frowned and did not speak.

Mama Li said again: "The side concubine is not in a hurry, the princess and princess have just gotten married, and they have the same temperament with each other, at this juncture, why should the queen mother be angry with the prince!" ā€

"That's it, the mourning family is old, and the children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, so go with you!" The Queen Mother sighed, sat down again, and said to everyone: "Today is the Red Plum Banquet, don't talk about these unhappy things." ā€

"The Queen Mother is blessed and gracious, such a good scenery, there are plums, there is wine, you can't leave the poem, the concubine has the courage to propose, why don't we compose poems for fun?" The queen hurriedly came out of the round.

Everyone was pleased.

The Nine Princes pulled Xia Ruqian to sit down, Xia Ruqian looked up at the Nine Princes, and the Nine Princes smiled at Xia Ruqian.

"Scared?"

"Why should the prince disagree with the queen mother, it's a big deal to marry back and put it aside."

The Nine Princes twisted his fingers and turned the jade wrench on his thumb: "If this king has one heart, he will be inseparable." Why bother with which women to marry. Isn't it possible to watch your children and grandchildren kill each other? ā€

Xia Ruqian suddenly remembered what Yun Duo said, when the emperor has not yet succeeded to the throne, the exile of the princes who are in prison and exile, obviously the nine princes know very well in their hearts, it is not that they have committed any unforgivable mistakes, but they have resisted the footsteps of some people.

After seeing too much deceit and cannibalism, the Nine Princes are afraid that they are tired of it from the bottom of their hearts!

But he was moved by the thought.

The dignified and glorious Nine Princes are willing to have one heart and grow old together.

Xia Ru pursed her lips and laughed secretly.

"The wind is like understanding, and it is easy to destroy."

I don't know who read a sentence that drew everyone's eyes to it.

"Good poetry, good poetry!"

"She is worthy of being a talented girl, she is really brilliant!"

Xia Ruqian followed the voice and looked over, and saw Ning Qing smiling very modestly, and said: "Where is it, if you want to say that the literary talent is not as good as the ninth princess Xia Ruqian, she is the number one talented woman in Kyoto!" ā€

Then all eyes looked at Ning Qing's eyes, and they all fell on him.

Xia Ru swallowed shallowly, opened her mouth a little nervously and smiled.

No one spoke, but their eyes remained on Xia Ruqian.

Xia Ruqian was forced to stand up and blessed herself: "Qing'er has won the award, Qing'er's poetry is very aura, and she is ashamed of herself." ā€

"Sister's words are compliments on Qing'er, sister doesn't have to be modest, let's make a song to open Qing'er's eyes!"

Xia Ruqian was just about to shirk, but Ruqi suddenly stood up: "My sister is very good, you must be out of reach." Sister, you should make a song for her to see. ā€

This is the difficulty of riding a tiger.

Xia Ruqian was at a loss and was very embarrassed.

The Ninth Prince stood up, smiled, and took Xia Ruqian's hand: "You don't have to be shy, it's just for fun." ā€

Xia Ruqian nodded.

I can't compose poetry.

Reciting poetry?

After more than 20 years of study, I have memorized a lot of poems!

Xia Ru paced lightly, walked to the foot of a red plum tree, stroked the pretty red plum petals with pity, and said comfortingly: "By the broken bridge outside the post, there is no owner in loneliness. It's dusk and I'm alone, and it's even more windy and rainy. I have no intention of fighting for spring, and I am jealous. Scattered into mud and dust, only fragrant as before. ā€

Xia Ruqian turned his head to look at everyone, and there was applause.

"It's a good sentence that is scattered into mud and dust, only the fragrance is the same, the princess is worthy of being the first talented woman in Kyoto!"

"Yes, yes!"

A chorus of echoes followed.

Ning Qing twisted his handkerchief and turned around and sat back in his seat.

A group of boudoir girls surrounded one after another.

"That Xia Ruqian really doesn't know what to check, what's wrong with the princess?! It's just bewitching the prince. ā€

"That's it, if it weren't for Xia Ruqian's vixen to provoke it, the position of the princess must be Sister Qing'er's!"

Ning Qing bit his lip: "What nonsense are you talking about?" ā€

"Sister Qing'er, that is, you are very generous, and you don't care about her, but when you look at her, you don't take your sister in your eyes at all!"

"That's right! I heard my father say that today's Queen Mother obviously wants to marry the prince and Sister Qing'er! It must be Xia Ruqian, who does not allow the prince to accept the side concubine. ā€

"Xia Ruqian, why is this like this! Sister Qing'er has already given up the position of concubine to her, why is she still not grateful?! ā€

The corners of Ning Qing's eyes were red and he was about to cry: "You guys, don't say it!" ā€

Ning Qing stood up and ran out of the yard.

Xia Ruqian, it's all your fault, I'm going to make you pay for your mistakes!

Ning Qing thought hatefully.

"Sister Qing'er."

Ning Qing immediately turned around, and Xia Ruqi held the handkerchief with a bright smile.

"What's the matter with you?"

"Sister Qing'er, is she unwilling?"

"What do you mean, Qing'er doesn't understand!" Ning Qing turned around and was about to leave. The people of the Xia family, Ning Qing didn't want to see any of them.

"I also hate Xia Ruqian, and I can't wait for her to die." Xia Ruqi's eyes narrowed, full of ferocity.

Ning Qing turned around, looked at Xia Ruqi's expression, and was shocked: "You, what did you say?" ā€

"Don't you want Xia Ruqian to die, as long as she dies, the position of princess will definitely be yours!"

Ning Qing looked at Xia Ruqi and did not speak.

"I know you don't believe me, it's okay, it's just helping each other, there's no need to dig out your heart and lungs and trust each other. To put it simply, you want Xia Ruqian to die, and I also want her to die, is this clear? ā€

"Xia Ruqian, isn't she your sister?" Ning Qing asked very defensively.
