Chu Yi was supposed to follow the emperor to the summer resort, but because of some bad marks on his face, he pretended to be sick and didn't go. As soon as he thought of Youyi, he hated the root of his teeth, and slipped out of the palace alone and went to the Anjia Courtyard. Riding out of the city, all the way to the east, the tighter the parting yard became, the more I felt a little cool breeze. This cleared his mind a lot, and he regretted that he had come a little abruptly. He thinks that he has been in the imperial tomb for a while, and he has seen through the hypocritical and fickle faces of people in the world, and there is nothing he can't bear. It's a pity that he lost his temper on a little girl again and again, and he really lacked experience.

Thinking of this, he slowed down and tried to turn back. Unexpectedly, he met An Jia and the little guy around him, he often waited at An Jia and his side, so he naturally recognized this master.

"Say hello to the second prince." The little guy jumped down immediately, his head hit the ground and banged, "Our young master is in the other courtyard, the second prince is going, right?" The villain hurried to say a word of advice, so that they could prepare early. ”

"No, what are you supposed to do!" The two of them walked face to face, and they didn't have to think about it to know that this little guy came out of the other courtyard because of something.

The little guy knew the relationship between the second prince and the An family, and when he heard the words, he retired and left.

Chu Yi walked slowly to the other courtyard, and at this moment it was about to pass noon, and there was no one in sight in the surrounding silence. It is estimated that all cats are enjoying the cool in the house, otherwise they are not awake from a nap.

He had a special room in the Anjia Courtyard, and he thought that he would go and wash up briefly, and then go over to say hello when the old lady woke up.

But before he could get to his door, a basin of water was splashed down on his head and face, and he immediately fell like a chicken in soup.

"Oh, damn it!" A little girl was holding a large copper basin and was so frightened that she panicked.

Chu Yigang wanted to speak, but the water droplets on his bun dripped down, wiped the edge of his lips and fell to the ground, almost not eating. His eyebrows stood up, and the girl was so frightened that she knelt down, "The second prince forgives the sins, slave and maid...... Slave ......"

He looked up to the sky and took a deep breath, "Forget it, anyway, the master has to wash and change clothes." After saying that, I was going to enter the room with my hands behind my back, and there was no one around at this time, and this girl wouldn't talk nonsense, it didn't matter!

"Second Prince...... Slaves deserve to die...... The slave didn't mean to......" The girl actually blocked his way, and looked terrified.

"Forgive your innocence!" He frowned and walked around the girl.

"Second Prince......

This girl is sick, right? Is there any end to it? Chu Yi was about to get angry, turned around and glared at the girl fiercely, so frightened that the girl trembled, her mouth rattled twice, and swallowed back the words that came to her mouth.

He snorted and lifted his leg to leave, and suddenly, a chuckle reached his ears. Following the sound, he saw Youyi sitting at the window, looking at him and smiling. The eyebrows and eyes are crooked, and she is clearly a cute pink little girl, but in his opinion, she is so eye-catching.

"Your girl offended me, you master doesn't know sorry and laughs, it's really unreasonable!" Chu also straightened his waist, and felt that although his head and face were full of water, the appearance of standing with his hands was imposing enough.

"Hehehe......" Youyi smiled more and more happily when she saw this, without speaking, she reached out and took a mirror to him.

What the hell? Chu also looked intently, and saw a personable man standing in the mirror, delicate soft leather boots with gold trim, and a robe embroidered with auspicious clouds with dark piping. Further up, a white belt has an emerald green jade in the middle. Further up, the bridge of the nose is firm, the eyebrows are long and the temples are in the sideburns, and the starry eyes are bright. There are a few droplets of water on it, but it does not affect the overall handsomeness at all. Further up...... Forehead...... A green leaf is on the top of the head, the key is the shape, how to look like a little king eight covers!

"Ahh He couldn't bear it anymore and jumped to his feet and screamed in anger. The leaf was shaken, trembling and falling from the top of his head, and pressed against his face again.

Damn! He wanted to curse, grabbed the leaf and threw it on the ground, and walked away with a sinking face. Could it be that the little girl is really his nemesis, why is she unlucky when she meets? He can't get angry with the little girl yet, and it will inevitably make people say that he is cautious and angry.

When I went back to the room, a girl came in to wait, and after the change was completed, Youyi came with her own things.

"I specially came to ask the second prince for guilt, and I also asked the second prince to have a large number of them, don't be like our little girl." Youyi made a special trip to ask for sin, and also brought a special drink to dispel the heat, so that people could no longer show their faces.

Chu Yi took the strange thing, took a sip, and immediately felt that the heat in his body had been removed, and then he took a closer look.

"What's that? It seems to be full of ice ballast, which is much more refreshing than juice with ice cubes. The heat was gone, and his mood was slightly better.

Youyi saw that his face was much better, and hurriedly introduced him to the shaved ice, "I don't know what Sister Wei Ru uses to shaved the ice, the ice is delicate and even." I asked them to use hard objects to chisel, which were of different sizes and coarse grains, and the taste was much worse. ”

"The Wei Ru in your mouth is Boss Wang of Jinxiufang, right?" The second prince is no stranger to Wei Ru, and although he has never met, he has heard many legends about her. Especially his father's praise for this woman, which made Wei Ru enter the eyes of many people.

Chu Yi saw Youyi nodding, snorted coldly and said, "Your courage is not small, it seems that Boss Wang is a strange woman." ”

Listening to his words, there is something in it, and thinking of every time she sees him, it is not difficult for Youyi to feel his hostility. Maybe he had already recognized that he was the one who witnessed the fight between him and Hao Lianjue back then.

In this case, it is better to make it clear, it is not a big deal. Besides, more than a year has passed, and there has already been a result, during which he has remained silent, thinking that the second prince will not be unaware. And through the contact with the second prince, Youyi felt that he was a hard-mouthed and soft-hearted person, and he would definitely not embarrass himself because of this matter, at most, he had a breath in his heart and never went out.

"Actually, I'm very timid." Youyi thought for a while and said, "The sage has clouds: only women and villains are difficult to raise!" as

Women and villains are difficult to raise! It can be seen that this villain has existed since ancient times, and even saints should stay away. I was originally a little-known little woman, raised in the boudoir all the year round, not to mention a villain, even a gentleman avoided it. If you really want to encounter something, you are afraid that the fire at the city gate will affect the fish in the pond, so you naturally have to pretend that you don't see it and forget about it. ”

Hum! The courage is really not small, and he even took the initiative to admit it. He said that these eyes looked familiar, and he recognized them when he saw Youyi for the first time. This little girl is young and looks innocent, but she is a thoughtful and bold lord! Otherwise, the water thief's knife was on her neck, how could she not be afraid of danger? Originally, he wanted to see how long Youyi could pretend to be stupid, but he didn't think that he would admit it, it's really boring!

When she bumped into herself and made a fool of herself, Chu also tried her best to find the deity. Although he doubted the girl of the Jin family, he never questioned her when she was young. It wasn't until I met her by chance, recognized those eyes, and then thought of the words "women don't let me have eyebrows", and then I realized that I had looked away. Chu also has a feeling of being fooled, especially being fooled by a little girl, which is particularly uncomfortable.

Therefore, he decided not to be quiet, but to see what else this girl was capable of! He is a dignified second prince, and he is not so bad that he can't handle a little girl. But when he created a chance to contact Youyi, he was unlucky one after another. Although things did not develop in the direction he expected, he felt that the initiative was in his own hands after all.

But right now, what he didn't expect was that Youyi would suddenly have a showdown. Now, the little initiative he was proud of was gone. The girl who is hated by others, how can she be so shrewd!

Chu Yi stood up suddenly, and his face was instantly magnified in front of Youyi's eyes. He stared at Youyi's eyes, desperately trying to find something out of them. For a moment, he sat back in frustration, "Jin Youyi, have you been caught by some spirit?" ”

"The second prince is well-versed in the past, and his ideas are also ...... Peculiar. Youyi's heart moved, and I have to say that Chu Yi is a very sensitive and daring person, "According to the second prince, what kind of spirit am I?" He couldn't help but laugh as he spoke.

"There are not many people in this world that I can't see through, you count one!" Chu also said quite sternly.

"There are not many people in this world who think they can't see through me, you count one of them!" Youyi replied with a smile.

In an instant, the eyes of the two people met in mid-air, with a faint smell of gunpowder in them.

"I'm the one who counts everything!" As soon as the curtain was lifted, An Lan came in from outside.

I saw that she was wearing a long green skirt, with a pink jade belt around her waist, swaying like a lotus leaf in a pond, and a pink lotus poking out her head. She held a lotus leaf fan in her hand, the dripping earrings hanging from her earlobes swayed slightly, and there was a fresh and refined smile between her eyebrows. Dressing up like this on a hot day makes people feel cool at first glance. I have to admit that An Lan is a girl with aura and can dress up.

She heard the girl say that the second prince was coming, and saw Youyi passing under the window, so she hurriedly dressed up and rushed over. When I walked to the door, I heard the tail of the two talking, and I didn't know the details but felt that what the two of them had, I must have it, so I said this.

Youyi couldn't help but laugh when she heard this, "This really can't be counted as a third sister!" ”

"Oh?" Hearing her say this, An Lan's eyes swept over the faces of the two, and she felt a little uncomfortable.

Youyi smiled and narrowed her eyes when she saw this, making people unable to see the real content inside, and only felt that she liked to joke that the children were not serious. But she secretly thought in her heart: This An Lan is infatuated with the second prince, and if there is a storm, it will be like a great enemy. I'm just a teenage girl, and she's a little too nervous. Besides, she couldn't hold back so much, I don't know what the second prince thinks. With the ingenuity of the second prince, it should not be difficult to find that An Lan is a goddess!

Thinking of this, Youyi glanced at the second prince again, and saw that he was staring at herself, and the eyes were saying: "Little girl, you don't understand the affairs of adults, don't be suspicious!" ”

Being treated as a little girl by a kid with undried milk hair is really uncomfortable. But who allowed himself to have an old-fashioned soul? At this moment, if she tells her experience, I am afraid that she will be tied up as a goblin by the second prince and burned with fire. No one can understand that in this life, she is destined to die with this secret.

"Why doesn't Sister Youyi speak?" An Lan asked.

Youyi's thoughts retracted, and she said with a smile: "The second prince said that there are many people in this world who always live with masks and don't want anyone to peek into their inner world. There are two kinds of these people, one is harmless and only defensive; One is like a hibernating poisonous snake, which bites the people around it when it is dormant and doesn't know what to do, and the light ones are ruined, and the heavy ones give away their lives. Although this first type of person is not a bad person, he is not a frank and unrestrained gentleman. But the third sister is an authentic gentleman, if you compare it with things, you are like the lotus, like the green bamboo. That's why I said, I can't count you as one! ”

Hearing these words, the smile on An Lan's face became thicker and thicker. She likes to sing poems and paint the most, and usually loves to sing lotus flowers and draw bamboo, and likes their noble sentiments like gentlemen. Hearing Youyi describe her like this now, it rushed to her mind. Especially in front of the second prince, it made her feel more and more comfortable.

"Sister Youyi has a sweet mouth, no wonder everyone likes to be with you." She covered her mouth with a fan and replied with a smile, "I don't dare to call myself a gentleman, just try to be worthy of my heart." ”

"It is not easy to always maintain a pure and kind heart. Life is too long, the world is unpredictable, who can say for sure? Youyi looked at An Lan and couldn't help but think of herself in her previous life, proud of her talents, and always felt that she was the most special woman in the world, and she should be matched with a rare man in this world. She was originally carefree, but as a concubine, the more she grew up, the more she knew her pathetic. In order to fight, she tried her best, but in the end, she still responded to the old saying "If you climb high, you will fall heavy"! originally

Heavy"! A position that shouldn't belong to you in the first place, and if you want to covet it, how can you really have it for a long time?

is also a concubine, Youyi has some pity for An Lan, and hopes that as she grows up, she can gradually sober up, and it is better not to be ambitious.

Who knew that An Lan didn't agree with what she said, pouted his lips and said, "How short is human life compared to bamboo? Some bamboos can live for more than a hundred years, and they are always proud, which cannot but be ashamed. ”

The beauty is different, even the pouting is so charming, Youyi is ashamed of herself. She didn't agree with An Lan's words, but there was no need to argue over this. She didn't continue arguing, just smiled.

An Lan felt that she had no common language with herself, and was too superficial and worldly, so she turned her head and talked to the second prince about poetry, calligraphy and painting.

Youyi didn't mind, she saw a lot of books on the big bookshelf in the room, so she went over to look at it. There was an interesting book in it, and she sat down and read it.

I don't know how long it took for someone to pull her sleeve, and she looked up and found a room full of people. An Qin and Shao Lan didn't know when they came, An Jiahe and Chu Yi were sitting next to each other drinking herbal tea.

"Sister Youyi is fascinated by reading, you don't know that we have been here for a while." An Qin leaned over and looked, "It turned out to be this book, I have also read it, and there are many interesting things in it." After speaking, he sat next to Youyi and discussed the plot of the book with her.

An Lan tasted a calligraphy and painting with An Jiahe and Chu Yi, and Shao Lan stood aside and listened humbly.

Obviously, Youyi and An Qin prefer some miscellaneous anecdotes and dabbled in more partial. However, An Lan is proficient in poetry and painting, more focused on calligraphy and painting, and has the demeanor of the descendants of the An family.

Because the temperature in the city was high, An Jiahe stayed in another courtyard. Although Youyi is a girl's family, she is still a little girl after all. Besides, the Anjin family is in-laws, and Youyi is the sister-in-law of An Jiahe, so there is no need to avoid it.

The second prince also stayed in the other courtyard, and within a few days, big news came. There was a severe drought in the south, and there was no rain for several months, and not only the crops died of drought, but also people and livestock died of thirst and sunburn. Coupled with the fact that the heat did not have time to bury it, it caused an outbreak of plague. There is a county town in the south that has been sealed off, and the officers and soldiers are guarding the edge of the city, and the whole city is disinfected with lime, and the dead people and livestock are immediately cremated.

When Mrs. Jin heard the news, she couldn't help but get angry, and later heard that the second and third rooms were on the way, and they would arrive at the capital in a few days, which was a relief.

The emperor was very anxious about this matter, and ordered the local officers and soldiers next to the big rivers and rivers to go to the arid areas to pull water, at least to ensure that the people had water for their daily lives. But far water can't quench the thirst of the near, the arid area is large, and they are all inland areas, and the time and effort to transport that little bit of water over is just a drop in the bucket. The most important thing right now is rain, and if it can rain heavily, the matter will be solved. But this big sun is shining brightly every day like a dead man, where is there any sign of rain?

Just when the people were talking, there was news that the prince was going to Mount Tai to ask for rain instead of the emperor. Mount Tai is known as the title of the length of the five mountains, the sky is unreachable, on Mount Tai to seal the Zen and sacrifice it, hope to be close to the gods also. The first emperors of all dynasties have to go to Mount Tai to set up a monument to seal Zen, in the name of the Son of Heaven. If there is a big drought today, the prince, as the son of a dragon, went to Mount Tai to ask for rain in person instead of the emperor, which made the people happy.

It is said that the prince started to hike up the mountain from the foot of the mountain, and climbed for a whole day to reach the top of the mountain. He bowed on the top of the mountain, and when he had burned the book of prayer for rain, he saw a large cloud of black oppression in the distance. A thunderclap and a torrential downpour.

The rain fell all night, and the people in the arid areas ran into the rain to sing and dance, and some people knelt down and kowtowed to the east, shouting "The prince is the true son of heaven". Since the crown prince was established, he has not made much achievements, not because of the prince's incompetence, but because of the prosperity of the times. Now that there is a matter of asking for rain, the crown prince has become famous and has become the best candidate for the next emperor in everyone's minds.

With the success of Mount Tai's prayer for rain, nectar fell one after another in various places, and it also rained a small rain in the capital, and the weather became cool all of a sudden. It's almost the beginning of autumn, and the heat is finally over. The second and third rooms of the Jin family rushed to the capital, and Mrs. Jin returned home with Youyi.
