"I'll accompany the sixth brother to go together, and there is no need to disturb the high marquis."

Qin Feng hoarsely explained, "After all, this matter is a family ugly, and it is better for Gao Hou not to get involved." ”

"As His Highness said." Gao Daonian threw a grateful glance at Qin Feng. If it weren't for the six princes, how could he take the initiative to wade into this troubled water.

"Third brother, let's go back."

Since he knew that the gambling house was the property of King Xuan, Qin Ze was a little depressed, and he sat listlessly, and he didn't have the intention of going to the Heling Courtyard to meet the Liu family.

"Okay," Qin Feng got up according to his meaning, nodded at Gao Daonian and said, "It's not early, I'd better send the sixth brother back to the palace as soon as possible, so as not to worry about the concubine." ”

Gao Daonian got up when he heard this, and was about to send him off, but saw Qin Feng turn to Xie Ning's side, "This king still has something to discuss with the girl, I don't know if you are free." ”

This tone was obviously a question, but it made Qin Feng read it as a statement lightly, without the slightest intention of inquiry, and it was not allowed to be refused.

Of course, Shainin didn't intend to refuse uninterestingly.

"Okay."

Qin Feng glanced over and saw the royal blue figure standing up from his seat happily. For some reason, he felt that she was not a regular manner, and it was extremely pleasing to the eye.

I don't know how many times he hooked the corners of his mouth, Qin Feng walked in front, but he always paid attention to his pace, maintaining a distance not far from the girl behind him.

Half a step behind, Xie Ning followed Qin Feng out of the inner room, and saw everyone in the Hou Mansion waiting in the outer hall.

I wanted to see through it, and finally I saw someone again. Xiang immediately stepped forward and asked earnestly, "Your Highness is going back to the house?"

"Ahem," before he could answer, Qin Feng coughed out without warning.

Xie Ning took half a step forward, helped Qin Feng, who was coughing sideways, ignored Xiang, and walked out with someone in his arms, not knowing that Qin Ze was stopped behind.

There was nothing to say all the way, only an intermittent light cough accompanied the two of them. Walking to the side of the carriage that came, Qin Feng suddenly stopped and turned to look at Xie Ning, "I'm fine." ”

"Well," Xie Ning replied, still looking at his face uneasily, and seeing that there was indeed a faint color of blood, he let go of his hand and took a step back without a trace.

Taking in her demeanor, Qin Feng frowned slightly, his eyes did not dodge, and he looked straight at Xie Ning opposite.

Being stared at, Shainin inevitably felt furious. Although she was a little uncomfortable, she did not avoid the other party's gaze, and spoke tentatively, "Doesn't Your Highness have something to say to the little girl?" ”

"Not bad." Qin Feng glanced at her deeply, and his voice paused slightly.

Xie Ning was a little confused, and he didn't know what His Royal Highness King An was going to explain.

"Miss Xie," Xie Ning was muttering in his heart, and when he heard the sound and looked up, he saw Qin Feng take half a step, narrowed the distance between him and her, and said softly: "Don't wear vermilion again in the future." ”

"W-What?"

Is that all?

Why?

Xie Ning was slightly stunned when he heard this, and his mouth was not sharp, but countless thoughts turned in his mind. When she eased her thoughts and was about to ask carefully, she saw Uncle Hou walking over with Qin Ze.

"Cousin Xie," despite being depressed in his heart, Qin Ze still squeezed out a smile at Xie Ning, "I'll come back to you next time I leave the palace, and then the three of us will go shopping together, okay?" ”

"Okay." Xie Ning forcibly resisted the thought of reaching out to touch Qin Ze, and watched the two get into the carriage, but the doubt in his heart was still not gone.

Why wasn't she allowed to wear vermilion?

The carriage gradually drove away, Gao Daonian's eyes involuntarily cast on Xie Ning beside him, and under the reflection of the setting sun, the slender and tall girl gradually overlapped with the quiet and elegant figure in his impression.

"Uncle," seeing that he was distracted, Xie Ning stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, "I'm a little tired and want to go back to the room to rest first." ”

Suddenly pulled back to his thoughts, Gao Daonian said absentmindedly: "Okay, you go back and rest." ”

Seeing off the two princes, Xie Ning greeted Uncle Hou, and went straight back to the small courtyard without going over to deal with Xiang and Gao Yiyan.

"Miss is back!" Seeing the figure of Shaining, Gu Sui, who was sitting in the courtyard drying the quilt, had a bright eye, and praised happily: "You look so good in this dress." ”

"Yes," hearing the praise again, Xie Ning asked thoughtfully, entered the bedroom, stood in front of the dressing table, and looked at the figure in the mirror, even if she was prepared, she couldn't hide the amazement in her eyes.

She never felt that she was beautiful, and after leaving Shu and entering Beijing, she was ridiculed a lot by a lot of light or covert, Xie Ning knew that she was far from those noble girls, and she also paid attention to their mannerisms, but it was obviously the same precious material, and the clothes made in her hands were always not as dazzling as others, and they were not special when worn on her.

But the outfit that Qin Feng ordered someone to find today is very different from what she used to dress. Wearing a simple royal blue Luo skirt, plain and elegant, not eye-catching, but it lined her fair skin and fresh face. Especially when a pair of eyes are circulating, it is extraordinarily smart.

Xie Ning slowly approached, looking at the scene reflected in the bronze mirror incredulously. She is very familiar with the eyebrows and eyes that she has looked at for thirteen years, but because of a skirt and a few beaded hairpins, she has been reborn.

An Wang Qin Feng's words before leaving suddenly appeared in her mind - don't wear vermilion again in the future.

His Royal Highness King An has no need to be unfavorable to her, so ......

Xie Ning thought about it, took out the clothes from the cage in the room, and spread them out in front of the bed one by one. These clothes are all needlework and thread on the Hou Mansion, and most of them are made for her to go out to meet guests, and most of them are vermilion.

His eyes were fixed on that touch of brightness, Xie Ning didn't have to change the contrast, he already had the answer in his heart. Recalling those unnoticed clips in the past, Shaining, who was in the house, broke out in a cold sweat in the summer.

She wears it every day, and it has always been the responsibility of the two of them. These two maids, who sometimes couldn't even be found in broad daylight, actually entered her house on time every hour, from what they wore on their heads to what they wore on their bodies, they all carefully inquired about them, and "dutifully" helped her choose them.

Compared with the ladies in Beijing, she has a dull complexion and wears vermilion, not only is she not half beautiful, but it will backfire. And the reason why Baoling Baoxin acted like this was that the person behind the secret instruction, except for Xiang, Xie Ning didn't think about it.

"Miss," Seeing Xie Ning's empty eyes, Gu Sui walked up to her in a panic and asked in a panic, "What's wrong with you?" You okay? ”

Summoned back to God, Xie Ning shuddered, and said in his heart that this invisible method of killing people in the inner house was sometimes more terrible than the tactics of the two armies against the enemy, and said casually to the grain ears: "It's nothing." Have you eaten today? Why don't I go out of the house now and buy some food and come back. ”

"That's right!" Hearing this, Gu Sui suddenly ran out, but after a while, he ran back from outside, put down the two food boxes he was carrying, took off the burden on his shoulders, and said to Xie Ning excitedly: "This is sent by one person, saying that it is the lady's thing." Why don't you know, miss? ”

Looking at the food box she put on the table, Xie Ning raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, and sighed with a smile: "I almost forgot." ”

Dusk has passed, Xie Ning hurriedly left the house today, and he didn't care about arranging Gu Sui, worried that she would be hungry in her belly, so she immediately reached out and opened a food box, and was about to hand it to Gu Sui, casually glanced down, but she was slightly stunned.
