Inside the Xiaoxiang Pavilion

"County Lord, what's wrong with you?" Zijuan saw that the cat was strange when she came back from just sending her father-in-law, sitting quietly in front of the window alone, not talking, and ignoring people, so she couldn't help but be a little worried. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Zijuan, if you were me, would you be willing to marry the Fifth Prince?" From Fuman's words and demeanor just now, Mao'er had roughly guessed his true intentions by eight or nine points, and probably guessed the reason why his father and mother separated her.

"County Lord, good and decent, why did you suddenly ask me this?"

"You don't care about this for now, you just tell me if it were you, would you like to marry him?"

Seeing that she was asking seriously, Zijuan tilted her head and thought about it carefully, and then the roots of her ears gradually turned red, and there was a rare trace of shyness on her face.

The cat was stunned when she saw this, and then quipped: "Zijuan, you are shy!" It seems that I asked you this question in vain. I don't think you're going to be tempted like this, are you? ”

When Zijuan heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand: "Where is it!" Don't talk nonsense, county lord! The slave maid just felt that the five princes were not only eight years old, but also both civil and military, and their appearance could be regarded as the first person in the entire Jueluo Dynasty, gentle and elegant, and extraordinary. Moreover, the five princes have not yet had a wife and concubine, which shows that he is a clean person. is such a dragon and phoenix among people, if any girl marries him in the future, he should be extremely happy. ”

"You are hearsay, how can that person be as good as you say!" The cat thought it was funny, she never thought that there were so many good things about that person.

"No, no, the slave saw it with her own eyes."

"See it with your own eyes? How can't I remember when you met him? ”

"Did the county lord forget? Six years ago, when the slave maid first entered the palace. At that time, the five princes often came out of the palace to find the prince to play with you. It's just that later, for some reason, the five princes suddenly never came again, and you and the prince were later sent by the prince to Jueming Mountain to learn art. ”

The cat thought for a moment, "It seems like that's the case." But she only remembered that the man would only bully her with her brother. She didn't want others to think that she was a bully, so she fought him, but every time she couldn't beat him, she pretended to cry every time. When he saw her crying, he would be at a loss and try his best to coax her. It's so cute. It's just that after the poetry and flower meeting that year, she never saw him again. Until two years ago, I met by chance in the forbidden place of Jueming Mountain...... The memories that she had deliberately buried flooded into front of her like a tide, and the cat suddenly felt a little suffocated.

"The county lord? Princess! You...... Why are you crying? Is there something uncomfortable, the slave maid will ask the doctor to come and show you! Zijuan was laying the futon, but when she turned around, she saw the cat sitting by the window and crying silently. Frightened, she hurriedly threw down the quilt in her hand and ran over to see what was going on.

The cat was awakened from her memories by Zijuan's rapid scream, and when she saw that she was going to ask for a doctor, she hurriedly grabbed her and said, "Wait! Then he wiped the tears from his face and continued: "I'm fine, it's just that a gust of wind blew in just now, and the sand got into my eyes." Don't make a big fuss, it's not good to alarm your father and mother at that time. ”

Although the cat said this, Zijuan was still not at ease. She is not a fool, the look on the county lord's face just now is clearly sad, and there are some emotions that she can't tell. It must be a big deal to make the county lord sad and do such a thing.

Seeing that she didn't believe it, the cat had to say, "Okay, Zijuan, I'm really fine." If you want to say that there is something really going on...... That's good, I'm hungry, you go and make me some osmanthus cakes to eat. ”

"Hmm...... All right. But if you still feel uncomfortable later, be sure to tell the slave! Seeing that the cat seemed to be calmer, Zijuan relieved herself a little, but still didn't forget to tell her.

"Well, good. Alright, Zijuan, hurry up! I'll take a nap first, and you'll call me when you're ready. As he spoke, he fell headlong into the couch.

Zijuan looked at the cat sleeping on the couch, and felt indescribably distressed.

On the eve of entering the palace, the flower hall of Prince Gong's mansion

"Rou'er, come here." Prince Gong, who was sitting on the high hall, put down the teacup in his hand and beckoned to the pink-clothed girl sitting on the right hand.

"Father!" The girl in pink ran to Hongtian and sat down on her knees.

Hongyang looked at the innocent and lovely daughter in front of him, and couldn't help but feel sad when he thought that parting was imminent. Although Rou'er is not his own child, he has always regarded her as his own since he sent someone to take her into the palace ten years ago. In the past ten years, he has personally taught poetry, calligraphy, etiquette, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. I still remember when she opened her mouth to call him "Father" for the first time, he would cry with excitement after not shedding a single tear for more than 30 years. Rou'er is talented and intelligent, simple and kind in nature, if it weren't for the emperor's order, with her current status, she would definitely have a good marriage in the future. Rou'er is gone, and this life is afraid that it will be destroyed in the palace. But what can be done, this is the helplessness of the children of the heavenly family! knew that this was the case, and when Rou'er just came back from Jueming Mountain two years ago, she should have set a family affair for her. Even if you can't be rich and expensive, it's better than intrigue every day after entering the palace!

"Rou'er, my father is sorry for you."

The cat didn't know what Hongday's "I'm sorry" was for, but she knew that in order not to embarrass them, the only thing she could do at the moment was to pretend that she didn't understand anything. So she restrained her emotions and expressions and said, "Father, don't say that. Isn't it just a royal performance? I won't disgrace you and your mother. I'm going to show the other princesses and ladies, and I'm no worse than them when I pick up the piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, and poetry and songs! ”

"Nope! Rou'er, listen to the words of the concubine, when performing in front of the palace, as long as you take out five or six distractions. Don't do your best to show your edge. When Wang Wan on the side heard the cat's words, she was anxious and immediately stopped her. Although there is a good chance that what the prince said is really a good thing, maybe they all guessed wrong. Maybe this Queen Mother's birthday banquet is really just a simple way to have a lively time. After all, the Queen Mother is old, and it is understandable that she wants to be more lively. Even if it's true, maybe if Rou'er behaves poorly, they may choose someone else considering the face of the royal family. Anyway, it's the only way to do it now.

Mao'er naturally understands Wang Wan's thoughts, although she feels that her thoughts seem a little naïve now, but this intention is really valuable. So she just replied obediently: "Yes, Rou'er remembers." ”

"Okay, Rou'er, it's not early, you can go back and rest early. Tomorrow morning, the palace will send someone to take you into the palace. Hongtian was afraid that if he continued, Wang Wan would tell everything, so he reminded him at the right time.

"Yes, you guys should rest early, and Rou'er will go back to the room first."

"Well, Zijuan, take care of the county lord tonight."

"Yes, Lord Wang"

"All right, you go down."

The cat and the purple cuckoo saluted Hongyang one after another and withdrew from the flower hall.
