When the inner attendant who called Fulu led the cold tide away, Situ Mu's eyes were still glued to the lilac figure and had not been withdrawn.

Tang Bu was surprised to see the astonishment in Situ Mu's eyes clearly, so he covered his lips and coughed lightly twice, and asked, "What does Your Highness think, how about not being surprised by this cousin?" ”

"It's really a rare beauty!" Situ Mu retracted his gaze with a smile, and did not hide his appreciation for Hanxi, "Before I saw him, I thought that since I was Mr.'s cousin, it would naturally not be bad. But unexpectedly, it was not only 'not bad', but that it was far better than expected! ”

Situ Mu's words were admiration from the bottom of his heart. Tang Buzhen has always known that Hanxi is beautiful and intelligent. Once her beauty was innocent and immature, like a peach blossom blooming, with a slight pink, warm and splendid. Now, her temperament is gradually calm, her innocence is gone, and she has become more and more beautiful after washing away the lead. Although Han Xi entered the palace with only a little powder, and the clothes and accessories were very simple, trying not to be in the limelight, she still couldn't hide her heavenly appearance. Even if it is in full bloom, it is not as beautiful as her!

It's just that Tang Bu didn't know that the Nangong clan was extremely favored by the heavens, not only was they born with spiritual power, but their appearance was also very outstanding. Since Lian Yan lifted the seal of suppressing spiritual power on her body for the Hanxi sisters, all the advantages of the Nangong clan have become more and more prominent. The original beauty is becoming more and more beautiful, and the original wisdom is becoming more and more intelligent. Cold tide now, beauty is beautiful, in the end it is too dazzling, in the intricate deep palace, but it may not be a good thing.

"This is just His Highness's lift." Tang Bu's expression was faint, neither humble nor arrogant, "It's just that Ah Xi is young in the end, and she was only raised in the deep boudoir in the past, and she doesn't know the world." The temperament is also a little lonely. If there is anything wrong with what you say and do, and you see the sin of others, I hope that Your Highness will be more tolerant and sheltered. ”

Situ Mu waved his hand: "This is natural. Han Shangyi knew at a glance that he was a delicate and clear person, and Mr. could rest assured. As he spoke, he smiled again, "I heard that Mr. will marry the eldest lady of the Huainan Qi family soon, and Miss Qi is one of the best beauties in the south of the Yangtze River." Hongu has heard of it. How many people admire it! Some time ago, she married the girl Chuyan in the Jiangnan Weaving Mansion, who was originally drunk and clean, and everyone said that she admired the teacher very much. Look at this cousin again. It is also the posture of heaven and man, like a fairy in Yaochi. The teacher's Yanfu is really not shallow, and he envy others. It's just a matter of how to make a trade-off. It's also a great difficulty! ”

This is naturally Situ Mu's joke, and Tang Buxi should also listen to it as a joke. smiled lightly: "Your Highness said that it was funny, Weichen and Miss Qi have a marriage contract." Parents' orders must be followed. ”

Situ Mu touched his smooth chin and smiled: "Hmm." In this way, it is up to the parents to decide, and it saves a lot of problems. ”

After the cold tide left the lotus pond. It was placed in a side hall of the Xuanhe Hall of the East Palace. Although it is colder here than the previous hall, it is better to be quiet and pure. The scenery is also generous and elegant. Two tall and straight eucalyptus trees are planted in the courtyard, with lush branches and leaves, which means "good health". There are dozens of pots of flowers in front of the hall, there are hydrangeas, gladiolus, peonies, acacias, a piece of flowers is like a brocade, showing the wealth of the heavenly family.

Hanxi lives in the East Warm Pavilion of the side hall, and as soon as he enters the hall, there is a hall with a round table of rosewood and four round stools. On the table, there is a silk table cover embroidered with auspicious clouds, and there are two copper silver lotus candlesticks on the left and right sides of the table. The left hand side of the hall is separated from the outer room by a floor-to-ceiling gauze cover between six fish and lotus flowers, which is the inner room. The inner room is used as a bedroom, with a blue gauze cupboard, two mahogany gold-painted chests, and a large bed carved in boxwood. The place on the right hand side of the hall by the window is used as a study, and there is a paulownia bookcase under the windowsill, which is equipped with an inkstone, a pen holder, a few brushes, and a paperweight, which is complete.

Han Xi looked around carefully, and it happened that a little maid dressed in palace costumes came over with a tray. The little palace maid looked only fourteen or fifteen years old, her face was immature, her expression was a little timid, and she was very well-behaved. She blessed Han Xi and said, "I've seen Lord Shangyi." The slave maid Sutong is the servant arranged by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to serve the adults. ”

Han Xi hurriedly motioned for her to get up, and said with a gentle smile: "You and I are both on duty in the palace, so you don't have to be so polite." I'm just a little female officer, not much of an adult. That's it, I'm crazy about how old you are, if Su Tong doesn't give up, just call me sister. In the future, I will have to rely on Sutong to take care of me. ”

The palace has always been hierarchical, respectful and orderly, don't say that those mothers and masters are eunuchs and palace maids who are a little powerful, and the shelves are all high. Su Tong is just a low-level sprinkler who serves the palace maid, she has never been called and drunk, and she is treated coldly, where have you ever seen such a gentle and kind character as Han Xi?

Listening to her gentle and gentle words, Su Tong only felt warm in her heart, and her eyes were blindfolded with water vapor. She lowered her head, her round face was red, but she didn't dare to go too far after all, so she whispered: "Shang Yi, Sister Shang Yi......"

Han Xi smiled slightly, pointed to the tray that Su Tong was carrying, and asked, "What you are holding in your hand is my official uniform?" ”

"Yes." Su Tong nodded repeatedly. She put the tray on the table, shook off the water-blue palace dress on the plate, and said, "Because there has never been a female official in the palace, there are no female officials' clothes." This is what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince specially instructed the Internal Affairs Office to do a few days ago. Sister Shangyi took a look, if there was anything inappropriate, the slave maid would take it and change it. ”

This set of clothes is very neat and chic, the style is a bit similar to a man's robe, wide sleeves and deep clothes, omitting the women's customary ornaments, tassels and other decorations, and it is also equipped with a four-finger moon-white inlaid chalcedony belt, which is quite heroic. But if you take a closer look, the water blue silk is still sprinkled with light water green plum blossoms, and the neckline and cuffs are embroidered with silver threads to accumulate cherry patterns, without losing the softness of the women's dress.

This dress is very in line with her identity as a female official, not only to do things for the official like a man, vigorous and resolute, but also to have a woman's delicate work, meticulous observation, it seems that Situ Mu has spent a lot of thought. Hanxi tried it with Su Tong's help, and the size was suitable, so he simply changed into this clothes.

As soon as Qiē was cleaned up, Han Xi took a general tour of the Prince's East Palace under the leadership of Su Tong. The East Palace covers a vast area, although it is in the palace, but it is very **, like a world opened up by the prince himself. The qiē here is more tranquil and peaceful than Hanxi's imagination, and there is not so much flashiness and utilitarianism.

But Hanxi knows that this is just a façade. The undercurrents of a qiē are surging, all hidden under a piece of peace. The palace is a place where you don't spit out bones, and when you really see the danger, it's already stormy! If you can't be prepared for danger in times of peace and be vigilant everywhere, you can only end up miserable.

What's more, the task of this trip is also very difficult. The palace is so big, looking for a painting of the country's mountains and rivers is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and the difficulty can be imagined. Thinking of the clansmen at the bottom of the frozen lake and the fate of his father Nangong Shu's soul, Han Xi's heart couldn't relax for a moment. She had to do the best she could.
