Chapter 248: Eavesdropping
Just when the women in King Yong's mansion were looking at Princess Tully, Xibao also noticed the inquiring gaze cast by the second princess Qi Yun, Xibao glanced over as if unintentionally, and really Qi Yun smiled half-awkwardly.
Xibao smiled and nodded, and continued to lower her head to listen to the princess and their conversation with Princess Tully, I don't know why Xibao always felt that Tully was hiding something now, and Tully's melancholy eyes at the banquet that night left a deep impression on her.
But always a quick glance, what Tully thinks in his heart, Xibao naturally has no way of knowing, but such a slightly deceitful party, Xibao doesn't like it in his heart, so he has been sitting there quietly, always with a faint smile on his face.
It wasn't until dinner time that the party was over, and Tully was taken by the princess to her own yard, and Xibao rubbed her stiff back and slowly went back to her own yard.
As soon as he returned to the door of the house, he heard a happy laugh, and Xibao smiled slightly: "This child." ”
Wen Qi hurriedly greeted him and said, "Master, you're back." ”
Xibao was stunned: "What's the matter?" ”
"The prince has been here for a while, and he will be playing with the girl in the house." Wen Qi Dao.
"How long have you been here?" Xibao is a little strange.
"It's been almost half an hour." Wen Qi opened the curtain and said.
"Why didn't you send someone to inform me?" Xibao said with some reproach.
Wen Qi was a little embarrassed: "The slave maid said it, but the prince didn't let it, saying that it was finally the Siamese princess to come over, so let the master talk for a while." ”
Xibao shook his head and said, "Hey, it's better to find an excuse to come back earlier, this waist is a little sore, by the way, how about dinner?" ”
Wen Qi said: "It's already ready, and I'll send the masters to order." ”
"Alright, it's almost time, it's time for dinner." With that, Xibao entered the inner hall.
Xiao Huanyan saw Xibao first, and said with a smile: "Mother is back." ”
Xibao smiled and glanced at Huan Yan and said, "Look at you crazy", and then smiled at Qi You: "Why did the prince come back so early?" ”
Qi You put the Huanyan in his arms on the ground and said with a smile: "There is nothing left and right." It's better to come back earlier to accompany you two, but you're still not here. ”
Xibao took a handkerchief and wiped the sweat beads on Huanyan's head and said, "Hey, the prince knows that the princess of Siam is coming to the house, and we must be accompanied." ”
"I know. But it's been too long, what are you talking about? Qi You said.
"It's nothing, it's just to talk about something that interests each other, and foreign countries will naturally be a little curious." Xibao Road.
"That's right." Qi You said.
Xibao smiled: "But it's a guest, and the prince came back so early." Why don't you go to the princess to see the princess of Siam, it won't be because you are afraid of falling in love with others. ”
Qi You said angrily: "How dare you have you by your side." ”
"I'm serious with you!" Xi Bao glanced at Qi You.
"Ye is also serious." Qi You said with a smile.
Xibao said angrily: "Hmph, you know how to coax me." ”
Qi You stood up and pinched Xibao's chin and said, "Why don't you like it." ”
Xibao slapped Qi You's hand away angrily and said, "The child is here, you can't pay attention." ”
Qi You glanced at Xiao Huanyan funny and said, "We are so affectionate, Xiao Budian must be happy, what are you afraid of." ”
Xibao looked at the words of the people sitting on the couch and looked at them curiously, and really didn't know what to say to this man.
Fortunately, Wen Qin and Wen Qi had dinner at this time, interrupting Xiao Huanyan's curious inquiry, and it was comfortable to eat dinner.
This kid is a kid after all, not long after this dinner. Xiao Huanyan fell asleep in Xibao's arms, and Xibao could only hold her in person and send her back to Xiao Huanyan's own room.
As soon as he came out, before he could go back to the house, he met Qi You in the corridor, and Xibao said angrily: "What will you do here?" ”
Qi You smiled: "It's not that I'm afraid that you won't come back, if that's the case, you won't be able to sleep all night this night." ”
Xibao glanced at Qi You in shame and was about to go back, but was stopped by Qi You and said: "What's the hurry, it's still early, take a walk in the yard with your master, it's been a long time since I've been holding hands and walking in the wind." ”
Xibao earned for half a day. Qi You didn't let go at all, just looked at her with a smile.
Xibao bit his lip and said helplessly: "Good ???" Then he was led out of Yunshui Courtyard by Qi You as if he was resigned to his fate.
On a summer night, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the breeze is wrapped in a faint fragrance of flowers. Qi You just kept holding Xibao and walked slowly by the sea of flowers.
The path is dark, and there is a gazebo around the corner, Xibao was about to pull Qi You to point to the pavilion not far away to speak, but Qi You pulled him into the begonia flowers on the side one by one.
Xibao was about to go crazy, but he heard Qi You's "shh ”
Xi Bao glanced at Qi You. looked at the pavilion again, and found that there were indeed two women talking in the pavilion, but this is the palace is someone talking in the pavilion, and she and Qi You, as masters, should not hide, and now she is crawling on Qi You, and Qi You's big palm around her waist is tightly clamped.
Xibao patted Qi You's chest and said, "Lord Wang, let's go back." ”
Qi You directly ignored Xibao's words, and instead said with a smile: "Don't you want to know who is in that pavilion, don't you want to hear what they are saying?" ”
Xibao glanced at the pavilion, and then at Qi You, a little puzzled, when did this Qi You have such a habit, what do people talk about and what do they have to do, thinking of this, Xibao shook his head and said: "I'm not interested!" ”
"What if one of the women is the princess of Siam?" Qi You tempted.
"What!" Hearing Tully's name really aroused Xibao's curiosity, and she was a little uncertain, "Is this good, we won't be discovered?" ”
Qi You smiled and said, "As long as you obediently nest in my arms and keep quiet, I promise that we will not be discovered." ”
Xibao raised his eyebrows and said, "It's useless to nest in your arms, I can't hear it anyway." ”
Qi You smiled: "You see the flowers in front of you, after a while, the master will take you to quietly move there, you can hear it, how about it, do you want to go?" ”
Xibao stretched his neck and looked at the pavilion carefully, then bent the corners of his mouth and said, "Okay! ”
As he spoke, Qi You took Xibao and moved to the flowers closer to the pavilion and observed it carefully.
When I got closer, I did find that one of the women was the Siamese princess who had passed through the palace today, Shetali. And the other woman next to her looked like her personal maid or something, and at this moment, the Siamese princess regained the melancholy appearance in Xibao's impression.
Xibao was a little puzzled, this big night the Siamese princess brought a maid to the lake to relax, she had just entered the house. This person is unfamiliar with the place, how did he find here?
Strangely, the maid spoke: "Princess, this is dark and silent, and there is a lake beside it. I feel a little desolate, let's go back quickly, after all, we are a guest in the Yongwang Mansion, and it will be bad if it causes trouble. ”
Princess Tully turned around and said: "It's too stuffy in the house, it's cooler here, besides, it's still in the Yongwang Mansion, will something happen, when you accompany this princess into the mansion today, you see that the guards in this palace are no worse than the guards in our country, and this princess is not worried." ”
The maid looked around vigilantly and said, "Princess, even if it is the Yongwang Mansion, it is heavily guarded. But it's getting late, and it's time for you to go back and rest. ”
Tully looked at the lamp in the middle of the lake and said, "This princess is about to run out of freedom, so why can't she live her last days freely." ”
As soon as these words came out, the maid knelt on the ground and said, "The slave and maid don't dare! ”
"This princess knows that you are sent by the royal brother to watch me, you go back and sue him, since you promised him, this princess will not regret it, there is no need to guard it like this, I am a princess of Siam, not a prisoner of Siam!" Princess Tully had some air.
The maid knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "The slave doesn't dare." Slaves don't dare! ”
"Don't dare, hmph, you've only been with Princess Ben's brother for a few days, what kind of character is he. I knew that this princess was a child, but I didn't expect that this princess was also a pawn in his calculations, I should have thought that he must take it with him this time to the north, and I should have played other attention, but I didn't expect it to be so ruthless. Tully said hatefully.
"Princess, you have always liked the Han culture of Daqi, and Prince Nava thought about marrying the Qi Dynasty because he felt sorry for you." The maid Nono said.
"I feel sorry for me. Hmph, if he really had a little distress, he wouldn't sell my sister like this, all the princes of this Daqi have already had wives except for the five princes who are not married, do you want me to marry a dignified Siamese princess and be a concubine, the Han people have a saying, 'I wish to have a white heart and never be separated!' This princess does not expect him to have much knowledge or power, but only to be able to share no one with others. Tully's words expressed her helplessness, and also expressed Xibao's heart.
Listening to Princess Tully's anticipation, and thinking about the current situation, Xibao couldn't help but sigh.
Qi You hugged Xibao's hand and tightened with this soft sigh, Xibao glanced at Qi You with a smile, and Qi You was also looking at her, the two seemed to look at each other with relief, and continued to look at the master and servant in the pavilion.
At some point, Tully had already called the maid who was kneeling on the ground to get up, and she was leaning on the edge of the pavilion with a decadent face and muttering something, her voice was too low for Xibao and Qi You to hear clearly, as if she was dying.
The maid stepped forward and said with relief: "Don't worry, princess, seeing that the emperor and queen of Daqi like you very much, they will definitely not wronged you." ”
Tully sighed: "That's all polite, the scene, and this princess has no practical use, this princess is a person who can't escape fate after all, what is the point of such a princess doing it or not." ”
The maid said helplessly: "Princess, since this matter has become a foregone conclusion, what's the use of you complaining like this, you are a princess, no matter who you marry, they will be jealous of your identity, even if you can't get the love you want, but at least you can get the honor and respect you deserve, this is already very good, you also know, why did this princess of Yongwang Mansion invite you to come to live, since everyone has to plan, why don't you conform to the shape." ”
"Conform to the shape shì, like the mother of this princess, be a poor woman who pities herself and pities herself, hum!" Tully looked at her mother's resignation.
When Xibao heard this, he felt angry and funny, and was sighing, when a familiar female voice came from not far away: "Princess Tully, you are here, but let me find it!" ”?????? (To be continued.) )
