42.Chapter 42: Cooperation
Ruan Anzhuo continued in distress: "It's just a jade pendant, what is it worth, dare to collide with Her Royal Highness the Fifth Princess, who is golden and noble." Even if it means something to our sisters, it is just a matter of asking our mother to find another piece of jade and carve five more pieces. ”
The third princess had already reacted, shook her head and said: "No matter how carved it is, it's not the original one, not to mention that your sisters have used it for more than ten years." The fifth princess has also been noble since childhood, and she doesn't understand how precious some things are to others, so she is so reckless, no wonder the seventh sister. ”
patted An Jin's hand again and said: "It's not your fault, don't mind, in this palace, if there is anything in the future, you will directly give it to the concubine or the queen mother, and you will make the decision for you." ”
After speaking, he touched An Jin's somewhat cold hand, and said, "This child, why are your hands so cold in this summer, aren't you too tired today?" I was frightened again, why don't you let the palace maid take you down first to rest early, and I will talk to your sister for a while. ”
Is this trying to break away from yourself and talk to the third sister alone? The three princesses deliberately came back with their sisters, not for themselves.
An Jin raised her eyes to look at Ruan Anzheng, Ruan Anzheng listened to the words of the third princess, and was also looking at her, An Jin looked at her with concern, her heart warmed, she reached out and grabbed Ruan Anzheng's hand, and said: "Niangniang doesn't know, the courtier's sister has a cold physique, and it has always been like this, so it is not in the way." ”
Ruan Anzheng knew that his sister wanted to stay with him, but he touched his sister's face and said, "Jin'er, you are really tired today, why don't you go and rest early." ”
An Jin saw Ruan Anzhen's calm face, knowing that she might also want to talk privately with the third princess, so she agreed to retreat.
At this time, An Jin was lying on the recliner, feeling the cold meaning of the snow jade in his hand, thinking of yesterday, and thinking about whether to go over to explore Ruan Anji, he heard the silver needle report that Xiao Ye, the prince of Lingnan, had come to visit.
An Jin frowned, and was about to instruct the palace maid to welcome Xiao Ye in the hall for a while, tidy up by herself, and meet guests in the hall, but she didn't want to finish the silver needle words, Xiao Ye had already followed into the study.
An Jin was annoyed and said, "How can you break into the woman's boudoir directly?" "I haven't counted the account of burning myself that day.
Xiao Ye was stunned, then raised his face and squinted at An Jin in front of him, and sneered: "Just you, the same as the little bean sprouts, what else are you talking about the women's boudoir?" What's there to break into? This son of the world walked in directly in an upright manner. ”
An Jin gritted his teeth, and wanted to tear off the hateful expression on his face and throw it under his feet to step on it, but he tried to endure it, and also raised his face and mocked: "Let me give you the peach blossom disaster, when it is not a little bean sprout?" Hmph, what kind of hero is he if he dares to do it? ”
Xiao Ye looked a little funny at the little girl's straight face and pretending to be disdainful, his hands were a little itchy, he was not like An Jin, he only dared to use his brain but didn't dare to do it, he directly reached out and flicked her head, pinched her little face, the feel was not ordinary smooth and soft, and he was reluctant to withdraw his hand in time, so he just said: "What kind of peach blossom disaster, what do you little girl know, and dare to do it......"
Before the words were finished, An Jin had already bounced out, picked up a notebook on the table and smashed it at him, his little face turned red, and he scolded angrily: "Dengzi, you dare, you are really a pervert." ”
The palace maids next to them were all surprised to see this sudden change, and then they all lowered their heads and pretended to be dead, Biluo went to the small kitchen to be absent with Yinzhu, An Jin said in her heart, sure enough, it is still her own maid ring is intimate, and these palace maids are unreliable.
Xiao Ye took the book, calmly walked to the armchair next to the coffee table and sat down, only the redness of the tips of his ears revealed a trace of embarrassment, and when he saw a few cups of tea, he was a little dry mouth, so he picked it up and drank it. His action angered An Jin even more, that tea was something she had drunk before! She glared at Xiao Ye angrily, she was so ashamed and angry that she couldn't wait to step forward and kick him again.
Xiao Ye noticed An Jin's sudden resentful gaze, a little inexplicable, this little liar is really bad-tempered, didn't he just pinch it twice, as for such a big temper. Others want him to pinch him, but he doesn't pinch it.
He coughed, decided to appease her first, thought for a while, and said, "Forget it, it was me who was wrong that day, so that Yiyang targeted you." He frowned, and said, "But you don't have to pay attention to her, if you have anything to tell me, I'll take care of it for you." Well, you did a good job that day, and that's all there is to it. He was on a whim that day, teasing her reaction, and he never paid attention to Yiyang.
An Jin calmed down his anger and felt that he couldn't treat him with normal thinking and logic, so he asked, "Then what are you doing here?" ”
Xiao Ye saw that An Jin was angry, and he was also happy, and said, "Aren't you going to give gifts when you move to a new house?" You have just moved in, and of course I, as a neighbor, have to give housewarming gifts. After saying that, he got up and said, "I'll let them wait in the hall, let's go, go and see." ”
An Jin didn't want to talk to her in the study anymore, the study was a private matter for her, so she obediently followed him to the hall.
Then An Jin was stunned to see a line of waiters leading a row of waiters waiting in the hall with gift boxes in their hands.
Xiao Ye clapped his hands, and the leading chamberlain ordered everyone to open the gift box, and then An Jin was dazzled to see boxes of uninlaid jewelry and jade, all kinds of gadgets from the West, kaleidoscopes, pocket watches, music boxes, and various wooden carvings of Lingnan specialties, which was really a big deal.
Xiao Ye looked at An Jin's stunned appearance, raised his face and smiled: "How is it, do you like it?" I don't know what you like, so I'll bring you some of everything, and I'll find you when you tell me what I like. "Why does this style sound so familiar? Oh, it's the style of the concubine Niangniang's arrangement of the study, and it's really the grandchildren.
These are the ones that Princess Changhua prepared for Xiao Ye to bring and distribute to the concubines and princesses in the palace and the princes' little princesses, but Xiao Ye had his own ideas in his heart, and he didn't want to do that exquisite thing. As for whether to burn the fire or not, he thought it didn't matter.
An Jin looked at these so-called housewarming rites, thinking about the intentions of this guy. The main reason is that he is too unreasonable to play cards, not as clear as others, and it is really difficult to guess. She suddenly had a flash in her mind, and stared at Xiao Ye for a long time, seeing that Xiao Ye, who had always been thick-skinned, was a little strange, and An Jin raised her head and said proudly: "You guys step back first, I have something to discuss with Xiao Shizi." ”
The palace maids agreed, and the people brought by Xiao Ye looked at Xiao Ye, Xiao Ye nodded, and then they closed the gift box and placed it on the long table in the hall, and then bowed down and exited in an orderly manner.
"Say, what's the matter? You don't have to be too grateful to me. Xiao Ye squinted at An Jin and said proudly. Sure enough, women like gifts, and he saw that no one in the Lingnan Royal Mansion didn't like gifts from childhood to old age. As for his mother, Princess Lingnan of Changhua, who was so dustless, he gave her some gifts, and she smiled more sincerely than usual.
Stinky fart, An Jin scolded secretly, but she thought that although this person had a moody temperament, he was not malicious to himself, at least for the time being, he had not killed himself, and thought that he was asking for himself now, so she didn't care about him: "Are you going to cooperate with me?" ”
Xiao Ye was dumbfounded, what is in this little girl's mind? What do I have to work with her? But if she wanted to think like this, he didn't care, so she said, "Cooperation? What can you do with me? ”
"Hmph, you must not want to be sent to the pile with that fifth princess, so use me as a shield, right?" An Jin asked triumphantly, in fact, it was not bad to be able to cooperate with him, and the relationship was clear, and there was less yin and yang in front of her. I am isolated in this palace, and the attitude of the concubine is unknown, so it is naturally best to find someone to cooperate. And this person can steal his sister's jade pendant from the second prince, it is definitely not as simple as it seems.
Xiao Ye looked at An Jin's triumphant appearance, and felt funny in her heart, but at the same time, she felt like she had been scratched by a cat, and said in her heart, since she thought so, she thought about it like this, and it was convenient for herself. As for what would be convenient for him, he didn't think much about it.
After making such a decision, Xiao Ye coughed and said, "Even if you are smart, how about it, are you willing to be this shield?" After thinking about it, I felt that it would be better to add some temptation, "The risk is not too big, I will protect you." In the future, you can find me whatever you want, and you can use these as deposits. ”
An Jin put her mind at ease, and sure enough, she gossiped: "Are you troubled by such a big deal?" Are you very worried that Your Majesty will give you the fifth princess as the princess? ”
The corners of Xiao Ye's mouth twitched when she heard this, this girl is really not ashamed to speak. He sighed noncommittally, but he didn't want to say anything more, so he changed the topic and asked, "The third princess didn't embarrass you yesterday, right?" ”
When asked about this, An Jian frowned, she remembered that she had originally planned to visit Ruan Anji, but it was only because Xiao Ye came over that she had interrupted. Now that she and Xiao Ye have become allies, psychologically she also pulled him to her side a little, and said, "No, she talked to the third sister in private, and I don't know what she said." I was about to go to the third sister to ask. ”
After speaking, An Jin seemed to think of something, looked at Xiao Ye suspiciously, and asked, "What do you know?" ”
Xiao Ye shrugged his shoulders and said, "How can the matter of speculation be announced." Let's talk about it. Since you have something to do, I'll go first. After saying that, he got up and left without any delay.
An Jin held the cold snow jade bracelet on his wrist, called Xiao Ye and said, "Hey, Xiao Shizi, you can help me show this bracelet to Doctor Fu, will there be any problems." ”
Xiao Ye turned around and glared at An Jin, but he still reached out and took the bracelet handed over by An Jin, and said, "It's not cute to call Brother Ye, it's not cute to ask someone to do something." ”
After finishing speaking, she walked away with a straight posture, An Jin sighed, but she was still in a very happy mood, although Xiao Ye was moody, she felt that she had more confidence to survive safely in this palace.
