16. Chapter 16

As soon as he entered the Fang Partridge Palace, Ruan Anzheng sensed that something was wrong. There are palace people everywhere in the palace who take care of it regularly, and everything is neat and standardized, but this Fang Partridge Palace is very desolate, although it is not overgrown with weeds, the flowers and trees are obviously rarely pruned, and they all grow luxuriant and messy, and all kinds of vines are entangled with each other and crawl all over the garden.

"Look, I'm right, Ling Xiaohua is blooming very well." The fifth princess was dragging Ruan Anzheng forward, grinning, her eyes shining, looking innocent and innocent, and very happy.

The Lingxiao flowers of Fang Partridge Palace do grow well, but they are too good, climbing all over the palace walls and courtyards, lined with dilapidated wall tiles, and it is a bit shocking to look at.

Although he was a little uneasy in his heart, Ruan Anzheng did not dare to disobey the five princesses, and was passively pulled forward by the five princesses. Walking behind a section of the palace wall, the fifth princess suddenly stopped, looked at Ruan Anzheng's waist and said, "Hey, your jade pendant is really good-looking, did you hit it yourself?" ”

Ruan Anzheng was stunned for a moment, lowered his head, and saw that the fifth princess was staring at a piece of jasper pendant that she often hung, this jade pendant and each of their sisters had a piece, which was cut out by their mother from a piece of jade in their dowry, and the five pieces could be put together in the shape of a small tree. There is a long cyan plum blossom hanging on the jade pendant, which is indeed played in his spare time.

Ruan Anzheng nodded, the fifth princess had already reached out and touched it enviously, and suddenly took out a big jade pendant from her neck, and said to Ruan Anzheng: "Sister Ruan, look, I also want to hang it around my waist, okay?" Sister Ruan, can you help me make a tie like yours? ”

Ruan Anzheng stretched out his hand to take the jade pendant, which was obviously much better, looked at it for a while, and said to the fifth princess: "The princess's jade pendant is very valuable, I have memorized the style, I don't need to hold the jade pendant, just go back and tie the tie and then give it to the princess." ”

The fifth princess chuckled, very happy, and said, "Sister Ruan, you take it first, it's okay." But can you give me this for two days? Seeing Ruan Anzheng hesitate, he flashed his big eyes and said coquettishly, "Just two days, when Sister Ruan gets my way, I will return it to Sister Ruan." ”

Looking at the delicate appearance of the fifth princess, like the sixth sister Ruan Antong, Ruan Antong's heart softened, although she was still unhappy in her heart, she reluctantly agreed in the end. However, she still insisted that the fifth princess take back her own jade pendant, and the fifth princess got what she wanted, and she didn't insist, so she hung the jade pendant back around her neck.

At this time, he had walked to a side gate of the palace, and the fifth princess squeaked open the wooden door, and walked forward with a familiar way. Ruan Anzheng took a step in, but stopped at the door, and hesitated: "Your Royal Highness Princess, is it convenient for us to go in here?" ”

The fifth princess turned around and wondered, "What's inconvenient about this." Her eyes swept over the door, and she found that the eunuchs and palace maids serving were still a few steps away from the door, her eyes flashed, and she suddenly raised her head and whispered to Ruan Anzheng, "You know? This is the place where Xiao Ye and I liked to play the most when we were children. Here, you will often find a lot of interesting little secrets. You see, there, behind that broken wall, we once saw my third emperor brother cheating with a palace person, hehe, after the third emperor brother left, the palace man found us, so I asked Xiao Ye to kill her and bury her in the back woods. ”

Ruan Anzheng stared at the eyes of the fifth princess in disbelief, thinking that he had misheard. The eyes of the fifth princess were smiling, they were still the same delicate, but in Ruan Anzheng's eyes, they seemed to be shining with a trace of demonic light.

Ruan Anzheng's face turned pale, and his whole body seemed to have suddenly fallen into an ice cellar, his whole body was cold, and he could barely stabilize himself from withdrawing his arm from the fifth princess's hand, and threw his sleeves away. She didn't know why the fifth princess was talking to herself about this. But the third prince is the current queen's sister-in-law and the husband of his cousin Zhao Minyi. She shouldn't and couldn't know anything like that.

It's just a moment, Liuli and the others have come up to the front, and the fifth princess laughed twice at Ruan Anji, turned her head and walked forward. But Ruan Anzheng really couldn't keep up.

Liuli didn't know what had just happened, but seeing Ruan Anzheng's eyes glazed, as if she had been greatly frightened, she stepped forward to support her and said softly, "Third Miss, what's wrong with you, isn't it too cold here?" Feeling that Ruan Anzheng's hands were not warm at all, she was startled and continued: "I see that you are a little unwell, why don't we go back first, the fifth princess, just leave a little palace maid to explain." Liuli's voice was soft and slow, with a sense of calming and steady, Ruan Anzheng was confused, nodded indiscriminately, and no longer thought about whether he would offend the fifth princess, and walked in the direction when he turned around with Liuli's support.

After leaving the Fang Partridge Palace and returning to the neat and wide palace road, Ruan Anzheng's heart slowly returned to its normal beat. She let go of Ruri's hand and let her lead the way, while she slowly followed her behind.

She kept thinking, what does it mean that the fifth princess came out like this for no reason? She couldn't believe that it was just a prank by the little girl of the fifth princess, and she didn't ignore the faintly malicious eyes that flashed with malicious intent. There is also Liuli, she is the eldest palace maid of the concubine Niangniang, in the situation of Fang Partridge Palace, even if she doesn't dare to stop the fifth princess, why don't she even remind herself?

"Third Miss." Not far from Fang Partridge Palace, Ruan Anzheng met the second prince she least wanted to see. The second prince was fat, and he walked a short distance on the unshaded palace road in summer, and a lot of sweat broke out on his face. In the sunlight, it shines greasy.

The second prince was obviously very happy to see Ruan Anzheng, and squinted at Ruan Anzheng with eyes that looked small because of his fatness: "I really didn't expect to meet the third miss like this, this king and the third miss are really fate!" ”

"The courtiers have seen the second prince." Ruan Anzheng bowed his head and saluted. At this time, her heart had already calmed down from the previous panic, and when she saw the second prince, she thought that the fifth princess was the second prince's half-sister, and she had to wonder if there was a connection between them, this was really one after another.

"Third Miss is exempt, Third Miss is really getting more and more radiant." The second prince's eyes changed from looking up and down to staring straight at Ruan Anzheng's lowered face, "It's really a day of not seeing, like every three autumns." ”

Listening to such words, being stared at by such unscrupulous eyes, even if he lowered his head, Ruan Anzheng could feel the ** heat of that look, and the disgust and disgust in his heart really couldn't stop. She resisted the urge to take a step back, but still lowered her head and said: "The courtiers don't dare, the courtiers are announced by the concubine, and they don't dare to let the concubine wait for a long time, and ask the courtiers to retire." ”

After waiting for a long time, but not seeing the second prince answer, Ruan Anzheng raised his head slightly, still thinking about what to say to get out, but his eyes paused in the second prince's hand. At this time, the fat white hand of the second prince was pinching a jade pendant, and the jade pendant was strung with a string of cyan plum blossoms, which was the one that Ruan Anzheng gave to the fifth princess before.

The second prince's hand is slowly caressing the jade pendant, like caressing the jade skin of a beloved woman, full of ambiguity and hints.

Ruan Anzheng's blood was surging all over his body, his face was not ashamed or angry, bright red, tears of humiliation couldn't help rolling in his eyes, he couldn't bear to fall, gritted his teeth and couldn't say a word.

At this moment, a black shadow flew from a distance and hit the second prince's head, breaking the silence here. Immediately after that, everyone was stunned to see a juju roll from the second prince's head to the ground, and then jumped comically twice before rolling to a piece.

"Who is so bold!" The screams of the eunuchs who followed behind the second prince shouted, but their voices stopped abruptly when they saw someone coming.

saw a black-clothed young man lazily walking out of the shadow of another palace wall and appearing in front of everyone, it was Xiao Ye who had gone back to treat his wounds before.

"I'm sorry, second cousin, it's not hurt, is it?" Approaching, Xiao Ye asked lazily without sincerity, his eyes casually seemed to be chasing the juju.

The second prince's face was hot and painful, and he lost face in front of the beautiful woman, and said angrily: "What are you doing, just play Keju on the palace road." What if I collide with the Queen Mother, the Princess, the Father, the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother? What kind of system is it? ”

"If they collide, let them do what they want." Xiao Ye frowned and said, "Why are you going so far?" Now that you have collided with your second cousin, let's make amends to your second cousin. I don't move, you can kick me a few times if you want to kick me, or let's go to a fight, and I'll let you fight with one hand and one foot. What do you think? Is the second cousin satisfied? After a pause, seeing that the second prince was just smoking with a black face, he spread his hands and said, "If you are not satisfied, I can't help it, so the second cousin will go to the imperial uncle to sue me, and I will wait for the punishment." ”

After speaking, he didn't wait for the second prince to answer, and went to pick up the keju by himself.

This bastard scoundrel muddy boy. The second prince was so angry that his chest jumped, but he couldn't really deal with this thirteen-year-old scoundrel. The father felt sorry for his sister, and he was obedient to this nephew, and he was more spoiled than any son or grandson. The concubine doesn't care about everything, but whoever provokes Xiao Ye, she will turn her face with whomever she wants, and her father will punish whoever is unprincipled. In short, this palace is all this kid walking sideways, who can stand him?

Besides, this kid is still a violent maniac, he can fight you without a head and a face, can you? More thirteen-year-old kid desperate? What's more, I can't beat it, I turn around and get a dirty face, and I have to be trained by my father and emperor with injuries all over my body, do you have a liner or a face? Bad luck.

The second prince's head burst out a few times, he couldn't bear it, but there was nothing he could do, and finally he walked away angrily.

Xiao Ye picked up the juju, rolled his eyes, snorted disdainfully, and slowly paced back again. Ruan Anzheng, who was still blushing and standing on the side all the time, didn't look at it, but a few words popped out between his teeth and said: "Hmph, I'm honest, why don't you have the slightest cleverness of a little liar." ”
