Chapter 41: The Princess's Invitation

The cold weather in the early morning of March has not subsided, and the overcast sky is also depressing. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The smoky surface of the lake is like a fairyland on earth, which is fascinating.

The sound of neat footsteps could be heard on the silent path, and the sound of horses' hooves was obliterated.

"Stop!" A resolute baritone breaks the silence of the early morning.

The general in ink-colored armor walked to the carriage with a steady step, and respectfully hugged his fists and said, "County Lord, the foot is here!" ”

The two pink-jacketed girls standing on both sides of the carriage sighed, one lifted the thick curtain, and the other took the hot soup woman and covered her hand and reached into the car.

The delicate white jade hand took the soup woman, and put it on the little maid's hand, and got off the carriage with her support.

"County Lord," Ling'er, who was holding Situ Yunying, exclaimed, "Is this what you said about Xiaozhu?" It's beautiful! ”

"yes!" On the surface of the vast lake, the long pavilion is hidden in the smoke that has not yet dispersed like a swimming dragon, which makes people can't help but stop in fear, for fear of disturbing the dragon and causing monstrous disasters.

"County Lord, shall we go over?" Ling'er frowned slightly, for some reason her hairs stood on end, she always felt that behind this beautiful scenery, there was a terrible crisis.

Situ Yunying glanced at Ling'er unexpectedly, did this kid notice something?

"Hmm." Now is not the time to think about anything else, Situ Yunying's gaze turned to the small pavilion buried in the mist, and his expression was inexplicable.

"County Lord, it's been a moment now, why hasn't Princess Baihua come yet? The lake is shady, so let's wait! "Princess Baihua is the only daughter of Emperor Long An, and she is very favored by Emperor Long An, and her temperament is quite rude. Now inexplicably invited the county lord of Minghua to visit the small building in the morning, obviously with great intentions. Ling'er is now Situ Yunying's personal maid, so she naturally has to put Situ Yunying first everywhere.

"Nothing! Let's go! Situ Yunying let go of the hand that was being held by Ling'er, pushed Ling'er away, and walked ahead alone.

Ling'er frowned, she always felt that her county lord was weird today.

Seeing this, Rui Yue followed Ling'er's side in small steps, and said softly: "Don't say much!" ”

Rui Yue knew that although their county lord was a noble product, there was no need to salute the princess, but after all, she was separated from Emperor Long An. Only their county lord is waiting for Princess Baihua, and they can't let Princess Baihua wait for them.

Ling'er pursed her lips when she heard this, and walked side by side with Ruiyue behind Situ Yunying in a regular manner.

The three of them stepped on the plank and walked along the long pavilion towards the small building in the middle of the lake hidden in the smoke.

The Praetorian Guard commander who had shouted earlier made a gesture, and the six stepped forward, following the three.

The more you go to the middle of the lake, the more you feel helpless. Ling'er felt as if she was alone on a lonely boat drifting around, unable to find a docking point.

Raising her eyes and looking at the thin but arrogant back in front of her, Ling'er knew that the person she admired would be able to resolve this unknown crisis.

In the small pavilion at the end of the long pavilion, four palace maids took the lead in stepping out. Immediately afterwards, a girl in a silver embroidered double butterfly descending red palace dress slowly appeared with the support of the palace maid.

The girl's face is extremely gorgeous, it is said that it looks like her biological mother, Concubine Rong, Lin, and the shadow of Emperor Long An can be faintly seen between her eyebrows.

The Lin family died early, Princess Baihua was raised in front of the queen Zhang, and was deeply favored by Emperor Long'an, and her temperament was inevitably a little arrogant.

"Minghua! Hello big shelf! Let this palace wait for you! Princess Baihua raised her eyebrows and scolded.

Situ Yunying lowered his eyes and confessed: "Minghua is late, the imperial sister forgives her sins." ”

"Forgiveness?" Princess Baihua laughed angrily, "Minghua! Do you think Princess Ben would not dare to teach you a lesson? ”

"Minghua didn't mean that, the imperial sister is the elder, the younger sister is at fault, and the eldest sister should be disciplined." Situ Yunying ignored Princess Baihua's anger at all, and replied without humility or arrogance.

"Humph! ......" Princess Baihua wanted to say something, but was pulled by the palace maid who was supporting her.

As if thinking of something, Princess Baihua rolled her eyes and said unwillingly: "That's it! Thinking of your first offense, this princess doesn't care about you! ”

"Thank you for your understanding!" Situ Yunying bowed respectfully.

"Come in with me! This princess has something important to tell you! Princess Baihua gave Situ Yunying a meaningful look and turned into the small pavilion.

Ling'er subconsciously pulled Situ Yunying's sleeve, she wanted to stop Situ Yunying, she always felt that something was about to happen.

Situ Yunying's eyes looked at Ling'er deeply, this child has keen senses, and with more training, even if she is not there in the future, she will be able to turn evil into good fortune when she encounters danger, right? What's more, there is Yunzhi.

"County Lord......" Ling'er always felt that her county lord's eyes were very strange, and she didn't know where the strangeness was.

"Let's go, Princess Baihua is the beloved daughter today, and her temperament is like this, don't panic." Situ Yunying patted Ling'er's hand soothingly, turned around and followed Princess Baihua's footsteps.

Ling'er bit her lip, but still followed closely to Situ Yunying's side. No matter what, she will protect Situ Yunying well.

Walking into the small pavilion, at a glance, the pattern decoration is extremely elegant.

Glancing at the thin bamboo wind chimes hanging on the small window on the east side, Situ Yunying was silent.

As if sensing Situ Yunying's gaze, Princess Baihua walked to the small window with a smile, stretched out her plain white fingers and flicked it, and the crisp and pleasant bamboo sound echoed.

It's just that Princess Baihua's smile is getting more and more gloomy.

"Minghua! You know this string of wind chimes, right? Princess Baihua turned to stare at Situ Yunying, as if she didn't want to let go of her slightest expression.

Situ Yunying stepped to the table and sat down, poured a cup of tea for Princess Baihua and herself, and said with the same expression: "Doesn't my sister also know?" Why ask? ”

"Don't you want to do something for her?"

"Then who does my sister want to do this for?"

Situ Yunying took a sip of tea and raised her eyes to look at Princess Baihua, only to see that her face was ugly, as if she was angry.

"All down!" Princess Baihua snorted left and right.

"Whoa!" The palace maids who served around Princess Baihua retreated.

Situ Yunying waved his hand, and Rui Yue respectfully pulled the reluctant Ling'er Fuli to leave.

After the maids retreated, Bai Hua asked bluntly: "Back then, the two of you had a deep sisterhood, and her family was wronged, so you didn't seek justice for her?" ”

"My sister laughed, back then, the case had its own holy ruling, Minghua's daughter's family was a crippled body, and it was not easy to survive so far, so why bother with other things?" Situ Yunying turned the cup, staring at the floating tea leaves with dark eyes, and answered casually.

"Huh! Situ Yunzhi! You are so heart-hearted, how sad should Zhaohua be if he hears it? Princess Baihua looked at Situ Yunying sarcastically.

Situ Yunying put down the cup, raised his eyes to look directly at Princess Baihua, and said, "It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. The saint already has a lot of suspicions about my Lingnan Palace, even if Minghua is not for himself, he must think about his father, the princess, and his younger brother. ”
