016 Implore
If the three of them talk about their appearance, Jiang Yan and Meng Xiwen are actually not equal, one of them is like a white peony, light and gentle, and the other is like a peony, dazzling. Although Meng Xiwen is proud of her appearance, in her heart, she has always felt that men prefer Jiang Yan's appearance and bearing.
Thinking of this, she quietly glanced at the prince, who was looking at Jiang Yan sideways, with a faint warmth in his eyes.
"It's not," Li Min seemed to notice Jiang Yan's difference at this moment, "Yan'er's body used to be either pure white or light pink, but I didn't expect this purple to be extremely lined, but there is an indescribable taste." Look at this material, it should be the batch that the palace just appreciated, the prince chose this color for Yan'er, it's really a good eye. ”
If you treat a few people fairly, each of them also gets one piece each, and if you talk about tailoring style, it may be better. However, Jiang Yan has always given people the impression of being cold, but now that she has changed into Roland purple clothes, she actually gives people an inexplicable sense of coldness.
"A few days ago, I casually saw this piece of material, and suddenly remembered that Yan'er used to seem to wear clothes of this color often, and now it seems that it is still suitable."
Jun Ruo's undisguised appreciation was followed by a silent silence, Meng Xiwen and the others couldn't help lowering their eyes, and suddenly felt that the dishes on the plate were bland and tasteless.
"The prince praised it falsely." Jiang Yan smiled faintly, only Yun'er saw her stiff back and heard the obscurity in her tone.
After that, a few people had a quiet meal.
Not long after, Meng Xiwen suddenly put his chopsticks aside, "By the way, I heard that Xiu'e and Tilt fell into the water in the afternoon, I don't know how it is now?" ”
Li Min sighed lightly when she heard this, and her face was worried, "I finally woke up once before, she has many frostbites on her body, and her body has always been weak, so I am afraid it will be difficult to take care of her for a few days." Hey, Xiu'e, this girl is also miserable, why did something happen to the good one? ”
"It's already happening, and it's useless to think about it." Jun Ruo cut off her words.
Remembering that the prince had never liked people to complain, Li Min immediately stopped and secretly blamed herself for being careless for a while, and she still understood the meaning of the words 'too much'.
Meng Xiwen glanced at her, looking down on her timid and cowardly nature.
"Where's the pour? Are you awake too? ”
Jiang Yan picked up the handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth, and said quietly: "I haven't woken up yet, Mrs. Song said that it was a matter of choking too much water, and now it is still burning, and the whole person is confused." Fortunately, she has always had a good foundation, and I don't worry about what will happen to her, just take care of it. ”
Mrs. Song?
Li Min was taken aback.
Meng Xiwen may not know, but she heard Concubine Ying mention that the prince had an accident when he was young, and fortunately he was helped by a person surnamed Song. I heard that this person has martial arts and medical skills, and his life history is also very mysterious. However, the person surnamed Song is a man, I wonder if this Mrs. Song has anything to do with him?
She peeked at the prince, and felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.
But she didn't know that Jun Ruojin didn't plan to trouble Mrs. Song, but seeing that the two of them hadn't woken up for a long time, they asked Mrs. Song to come. It's just that as soon as she arrived at Fuqu Pavilion, she heard that Xiu'e woke up, so she bypassed Xiu'e and went directly to the tilting room.
"Speaking of which, this matter is a bit mysterious, why did the two of them fall into the water together, the prince wants someone to check it carefully."
This was nothing at first glance, but Li Min felt that Meng Xiwen was hinting that there was something greasy between Wang Ye Xiu'e and the two, and they didn't agree with each other and fought like that. She was nervous in her heart, for fear that the prince would misbelieve it, but she didn't dare to refute Meng Xiwen.
Jiang Yan suddenly put down the spoon and made a crisp sound at the bottom of the bowl, "I don't know about others, but I have never been a person who causes trouble." The place where the incident happened was on the way to the Echo Pavilion, but I don't know how Xiu'e appeared there, but I heard that before the incident, I was called for questioning. ”
Meng Xiwen was secretly taken aback, and wondered if Jiang Yan had eaten gunpowder or been stimulated, she had always ignored other people's words, why did she get so angry today, still in front of the prince. What did she mean by that, implying that it was instigated by their masters?
Li Min's face was also faintly ugly, the two of them said a word, but Xiu'e couldn't get out of it.
For a while, the atmosphere was a little condensed, and the girls standing behind her lowered their heads, not daring to look at the face of the person on the first seat.
Jun Ruojin put down the chopsticks in his hand and took a pure white silk handkerchief handed by Dongxue. He wiped his hands gently and gracefully, and with great seriousness, after wiping his hands clean, his long fingers were gently raised, and the handkerchief fell on the table.
He looked at a few people, "It's too early to say whether this happened man-made or accidental." But what Xiwen said is right, since the incident happened in Zizhuyuan, it is inevitable to understand what happened. If what she said is true, it is even more important to avoid the recurrence of something that is not important. ”
Jiang Yan lowered her eyes, her heart was empty, and her face became more and more expressionless. Li Min's lips were pursed, and under the table where no one was looking, her hands were clenched, and her complexion was pale.
Meng Xiwen was not secretly complacent because of his words, and the moment he threw away the veil, she was astutely aware of his hidden sharp eyes, even if it was just a glance, it was enough for her to understand what he meant.
He was not happy that she had provoked trouble.
Meng Xiwen gritted her teeth, she could tolerate anything, but she couldn't tolerate any dissatisfaction he had with her. She took a deep breath and forced a smile to herself: "Okay, okay, it's all my mouth, let's stop mentioning irrelevant things, let's have a good meal." ”
Regardless of the expressions of the other two, she raised her hand and put two pieces of fish into their plates, "Taste the fresh fish you just caught." Yan'er, I remember your favorite fish. ”
Li Min suddenly felt flattered and thanked him again and again. Meng Xiwen turned his gaze to Jiang Yan with satisfaction, but saw that her face changed suddenly, and she retreated slightly.
"Isn't it Yan'er's dislike?"
Yun'er glanced at the bright white fish on the plate, and hurriedly helped Jiang Yan's slightly trembling shoulders, "Mrs. Wen, don't misunderstand, our lady is afraid that it is ......"
Jiang Yan covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief, and then waved her hand to signal that it was okay. He raised his head and said to Jun Ruojin: "Lord Wang, when I saw the dumping in the afternoon, the fish that had just been caught from the water, the concubine really couldn't bear it." ”
Li Min's chopsticks trembled when she reached her mouth, she frowned, and quietly put the fish back.
"Remove all the fish." Jun Ruojin said a word, and several fish and shrimp on the table were all replaced.
The family banquet continued, the atmosphere was quite harmonious, Meng Xiwen still spoke softly, chuckling from time to time. In front of the prince, she can no longer see her usual arrogance, she is just an ordinary woman, looking at her beloved husband with longing and admiration, expecting him to pay full attention. Li Min echoed a sentence or two from time to time, and most of the time he just looked at the two of them silently.
In Yun'er's opinion, this picture is harmonious and beautiful. Although the prince rarely answered, he always listened patiently and his face was soft. She sighed softly, only Madame sat alone, as if surrounded by a high wall, and had no sense of her surroundings.
A maid suddenly walked over, holding a porcelain cup in her hand, she said, this bowl of white fungus pumpkin soup was specially ordered by the prince to be made for his wife when he saw that his wife had a poor appetite.
Yun'er glanced ahead very quickly, and the prince was still listening attentively to what Mrs. Wen was saying. Yun'er hurriedly thanked and took it, her mind turned over several times, and she was secretly pleased that the prince seemed cold, but in fact he still cared about his wife.
But looking at the lady's expression again, she could only sigh again.
A few glances swept over for a while, Mrs. Wen's jealousy, and Mrs. Min's loneliness can be pondered lightly, but Mrs. is like this, which makes people even more heartbroken and helpless.
The banquet dispersed, and Jiang Yan and Li Min went to Fuqu Pavilion together.
Meng Xiwen walked on the way back to Xiyan Courtyard, silent in thought.
"Ma'am, beware of slippery roads." Yuliu supported Meng Xiwen in time, and was a little surprised by her distraction.
"You find a chance to find out who Mrs. Song is." Meng Xiwen stood firm and instructed.
She didn't ignore Li Min's surprised look at that time, thinking that this person's identity was not ordinary. But looking at Li Min's appearance, it is obvious that he has not seen this Mrs. Song today.
"Yes, the slave knows."
"Also," she whispered, "didn't you say that there were people in Zizhu Courtyard who were friendly with you?" Try to contact her and ask her to pay more attention to the recent movements in Zizhuyuan. ”
Yuliu didn't understand her intentions, but still nodded.
Meng Xiwen frowned, obviously something bothered her, but Yuliu waited for a long time, and still didn't see her give any more orders.
Jiang Yan visited the tilt and went directly to Fuyun Pavilion.
"Ma'am." Not long after the banquet, Yin Hong was a little surprised to see her again, but his face was not obvious, and he bowed his head slightly to show respect.
"I want to see the prince, please ask the Yin guards to help me get through." Under the moonlight, a soft smile appeared on her face, and her tone was very polite.
Yin Hong has always respected her, not only because the prince has known her since childhood, but also because of her noble temperament, and she will not deliberately flatter or dictate because of her status.
However, before Yin Hong could turn around, Jun Ruojin's voice had already come from inside, "Let her in." ”
Yin Hong stood aside and made a gesture of please, Jiang Yan nodded slightly, leaving Yun'er to wait outside.
Jun Ruojin was changing his clothes under the service of the first snow, his black hair was half wet, scattered over his shoulders, and his skin was as white as jade, and his eyes were as bright as stars. The garment had not yet been fastened, revealing the solid chest inside.
"Sit and wait." Jun Ruojin glanced at her, and did not react to her sudden arrival, but asked her to wait for a while in a calm voice.
This man always seemed to be calm, and nothing could make him panic. From the prince who was favored by the former emperor, to the death of the first emperor and Ying Guifei one after another, and then to the eldest prince's accession to the throne, this journey has slowly passed, and he has faded from his youthful appearance and become more and more calm and serious.
If, just if, he knew about Xiao Yu, could she expect the slightest anger from him?
Jiang Yan looked at him quietly, her heart was surprisingly soft, as if she had returned to the beginning. She hadn't had this state of mind for a long time, whether it was the mist that had clouded her mind, or something else, that made her feel like she was in a dream.
The room was quiet, and Chu Xue, who was wiping Jun Ruojin's hair, glanced at the two of them, and for the first time keenly noticed his absent-mindedness. Realizing that she was redundant, she immediately stopped her movements, blessed Jiang Yan, and withdrew with a smile.
Jiang Yan slowly came and stood in front of him, she could still feel the warm water vapor coming from his body, she didn't raise her eyes to look at him, and she was not in a hurry to explain her intentions, she only gently tied the buckles for him from the bottom up.
Jun Ruojin didn't open his mouth to urge, silently watched her calm face, let her put on his middle coat for him, and then turned to his back to continue to wipe his hair.
"The concubine has always been very envious of the prince, with such beautiful long hair." She spoke like an ordinary woman.
Jun Ruojin frowned slightly because of the word "beautiful".
"It's just that others admire it, but the prince never cares about it." Whether it's looks or power.
She didn't speak for a long time, and she was very careful to wipe the water from his hair little by little. After simply tying his hair, he put on a regular dress for him, and then went around to him.
"The concubine came here so late, because she had something to ask for." She said.
"You say." His words were as short and powerful as ever.
Jiang Yan tugged at the corners of her lips, a little disheartened by his usual tone, "That's the case, the concubine just saw the tilt, she still has a high fever, and she also has multiple frostbite on her legs and hands." Hearing that the Wind Pavilion was too far away, the concubine felt that it was really inappropriate to toss back and forth, so she wanted to ask for the prince's permission and agreed that she would stay here to recover from her injuries and illnesses. ”

Friends, on the first day of the holiday, happy Zongzi Festival.
