The three of them were silent all the way, until they were almost at the Inviting Moon Palace, and Jin Xi couldn't help but say:

"Princess Jin is so strange today, don't you ask Shu'er about it?"

Hearing this, Li Xue was the first to be a little surprised: His Royal Highness really rarely had such a time when he couldn't hold his breath, and he actually took the initiative to hope that Murong Jin would "get closer" with this. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"You're going to tell me the truth?" Murong Jin raised his chin and looked sly.

"I lied to Princess Jin?" Jin Xi opened his eyes in confusion.

"That's not true," Murong Jin said tickly, "Previously, in the pavilion, General Jin told His Majesty about Shu'er's situation, and the little woman was also very happy to hear it, so I thought, maybe no matter how I ask later, General Jin will only repeat what he said before!" ”

Jin Xi straightened his expression, as if he was deliberately teasing: "That's not necessarily." ”

Murong Jin was recruited, his eyes lit up, and he spoke simply: "I want to hear it." ”

"Shu'er is very happy and sensible, she misses her sister very much, and she also said that the second sister loves her the most." Jin Xi stared quietly.

Suddenly, Murong Jin's eyes were sour, and a long-lost family affection and a strong sense of happiness almost made her cry on the spot, but Murong Jin is still Murong Jin after all, and rarely presents the softest side of her heart to the world, and calms down with only a little adjustment.

"General Xie informed," Murong Jin bowed slightly, smiling lightly, "The little woman said goodbye. ”

"Princess, let's go." Jin Xi said goodbye with a sigh of relief.

He watched Murong Jin walk into the Inviting Moon Palace before leaving with Li Xue.

In the Lotus Pond Pavilion, after making sure that the eunuchs and palace maids who carried the luggage had left, Li Xue asked:

"Why didn't Your Highness tell the princess the truth?"

"Isn't what I said in Ji Mansion clear enough?" Jin Xi took a sip of tea and asked lightly.

"The subordinate refers to Shu'er's matter - her true identity, can't she tell Princess Jin?" Li Xue explained.

"Princess Jin is smart and intelligent, why do you need to break everything one by one," Jin Xi said as she drank tea, and then raised her eyelids, "She already knows it in her heart, but she can't act because she is in the palace." ”

"His Royal Highness is thoughtful, and his subordinates admire," Li Xue leaned forward by pouring tea into Jin Xi's porcelain cup, and said in a low voice, "The matter of the envoys of the Yue Kingdom ......"

A cold light flashed in Jin Xi's eyes: "Go as planned!" ”

Li Xue said worriedly: "Your Highness, do you really believe in the 'owl'?" ”

"Employing people without suspicion and suspicion is not necessary, this is my principle." Jin Xi put down the lotus porcelain cup in his hand and said calmly, "Besides, in the nine-fold deep palace of Qi Kingdom, except for the 'owl', I have no one to use. ”

Li Xue nodded, and suddenly muttered, "I hope Princess Murong Jin will not be involved." ”

Jin Xi closed his eyes, and only opened them after a while, his mood was a little heavy: "It's a pity that I can't participate in this banquet-" The worry in his words was self-evident, "I only hope that the 'owl' will be smart." ”

"Would you like a reminder?"

"No, you don't."

"Yes." Li Xue responded in a decent manner, and stopped the topic in moderation-he knew that the more worried Jin Xi was, the more he would dislike people to ask more, which would only make him at a loss, and he would be in chaos, just let him calm down.

"I believe that after Queen Xun's banquet this time, the monarch of Qi Guojun will send his eunuchs and palace maids to the Lotus Pond Pavilion," after a long silence, Jin Xi spoke again, "In the future, you and I must be cautious when we speak, and we must not be caught." ”

"Will they live in the attic?"

"It's hard to say, it depends on what Qi Guojun thinks, but this Lotus Pond Pavilion is not spacious, it shouldn't be crowded on the first floor, I guess it may be either to build another layer up, or around the Lotus Pond Pavilion." Jin Xi's next sentence was cut off.

Sure enough, the next morning, Li Xue saw that craftsmen had successively gone to the other side of the Lotus Pond Pavilion to build fortifications, he went down to the attic to ask what was going on, and a eunuch told him that he had been ordered by His Majesty to build a two-story small attic, which was a resting place for eunuchs and palace maids who were not on duty at night.

Entering late autumn, the weather is getting cooler, many flowers are withering and withering, and at night, Murong Jin wanders around the flower garden to see the last look.

"Princess, tomorrow is the queen's banquet," Hongxing put on a cloak for Murong Jin and reminded softly, "Do you want to rest early, so as to cheer up." ”

"I don't seem to be in good spirits on weekdays?" Murong Jin didn't look back, only asked curiously.

"It's all slaves and maids who can't speak," Hong Xing said apologetically, "The princess is in good spirits on weekdays, and the slave maid means that you have been standing here for almost half an hour, and it will be cold at night, so tomorrow-"

"Hongxing, you're too nervous," Qingping stood up and deliberately squeezed Hongxing, but he didn't have a good air, "Don't you see if it's too late?" The princess loves flowers, and she will soon not be able to see them, so what will there be if you look at them a few more times. ”

In fact, this flower garden is pitch black, and a few lamps barely illuminate the outline and appearance of some flowers, how can it compare to the comfort of viewing during the day?

Murong Jin is just looking for an excuse to go out to breathe, thinking about the situation that may be encountered at tomorrow's banquet, so as to take precautions, and Hongxing is persuaded because she understands this.

"That's right, Hongxing, how do you take care of the princess on weekdays," the other palace maid also muttered helpfully, "I can't even feel the princess's thoughts......"

Hongxing lowered her head and didn't argue, only listened to Murong Jin Tian say lightly: "Hongxing, go make the bed for me, prepare the futon, and prepare to go back to the room." ”

"Yes, princess." After speaking, he turned around and left.

Qingping frowned slightly, holding back what he was about to say.

At this time, a palace maid came up and reported: "Princess, General Murong and his wife brought the little prince to invite the Moon Palace to visit the princess, and asked the slave maid to tell you." ”

Murong Jin said coldly: "Got it, go back to the palace." ”

Murong Hui, his wife Lan and son Murong Lin were waiting by the palace gate, and when they saw Murong Jin coming, their tense faces immediately smiled:

"Sister Jin, your sister-in-law and Lin'er said that they hadn't seen you for a while, and they missed you very much, so they took some pastries and snacks that you love to eat on weekdays and asked your brother to accompany you to visit you."

Murong Lin had just turned eight years old, he looked very cute, and he liked to follow Murong Jin before his death, but since he came to Qi Kingdom to see Murong Jin, he suddenly became a little strange and afraid, and said "Auntie is good" and stopped making a sound.

"Two of you, please come in, it's easy to get cold when it's cold, standing at the door," Murong Jin lowered his eyebrows and glanced at the little Murong Lin, "Lin'er is still young." ”

Murong Hui and the Lan clan looked at each other, and then their faces relaxed: Murong Jin was willing to call their child as before, which showed that her heart was no longer as cold and hard as before, and it would be easy to say tonight.

After making the bed, the red apricot went out of the house to help serve hot tea to the guests and put a carbon basin on it.

The three of them chatted about trivial things without being salty, but soon, Murong Lin gradually became impatient and clamored to leave, Murong Jin's mind turned, and he said to Hongxing, Qingping and the other two palace maids:

"You take your son to play near the palace," and then moved his gaze to Lan, "Madam, do you want to go with you?" ”

The Lan family still wanted to say something about prevarication, but Murong Lin pestered the Lan family and did not let go, and after speaking, her mother played with her, but the Lan family only needed to say goodbye to her husband and Murong Jin for the time being, and led her son Murong Lin and the palace maid out of the door.
