Chu Zihou stared deeply at her face, capturing her every expression, trying to find the part related to him from it.

However, every look on her face seemed to be related to him and not to him. He looked at her, speculating on her thoughts, unwilling to look away from him for a long time.

In fact, Chu Zihou is a bold person in nature, although he was careful to restrain himself everywhere because of his identity before, but he was very willing to be brave and direct in front of the people he liked.

"Miss Shen, sue me, what is your dream?" Seeing Shen Xizhen's flushed face, knowing that she was cramped by him, he smiled and straightened his posture and changed the topic.

"When it comes to dreams, it's simple, but I just want to have a skill, get a good gentleman, and live this life in love."

"It shouldn't be hard for you to do, right?"

"Not necessarily, in life, the will of the individual is often constrained by the environment, and it is not easy to live a happy life." Xi Zhen thought of the fact that he was going to leave here in twenty years, and the whole person was a little sober again.

At that time, he was only in his thirties in this dynasty, and he was not yet forty years old.

She was also asking herself.

As a person who is proficient in occult arts, she has already seen that he has the appearance of a king's destiny, but he has no way to release this energy now.

Now he is like a hidden dragon, and he still needs to go through many tests of the world before he can take off, so what he needs most now is not love, but politics. Governance and personnel sharpening.

"As the second prince, do you like your identity?" She asked him.

His expression changed slightly, no, he didn't like it for a long time, and he has only gradually learned to accept this identity in recent years.

"It's okay, human life is affected by parents, this is no choice." He said, smiling lightly, as if it were a trivial matter.

"Yes, the prince is a smart man, and the future will be bright. It's a little cold outside, so let's go back inside. ”

With that, she gently withdrew her hands from his hands and stood up.

Back in the living room, Du Qiniang, Shen Xibin and Shen Xicong were all there, and when they saw the two coming in with a smile, they nodded and said hello.

"I heard that the prince likes to eat osmanthus cakes, I asked Mother Chen to make some for you, please be sure to taste it before leaving." Du Qiniang said with a smile.

"Okay." Chu Zihou was eager to stay in the Shen Mansion for a while, so he agreed.

"Add some pear paste, plum jam and honey to it." Xizhen added, and Chen's mother smiled and took the order.

"I only know that the osmanthus cake has starch sugar, cooked powder and honey osmanthus flowers in it, and it is already very delicious, and I don't know how good it tastes if I add these three." Chu Zihou said with a smile.

"My sister's favorite thing is to add a few spices to seemingly ordinary food to raise the taste to a higher level." Shen Xicong replied.

"Oh, it turned out to be Miss Shen's own idea?" Chu Zihou was taken aback.

"Just think about it." Shen Xizhen hurriedly responded modestly.

I didn't expect that a smart and delicate daughter like her would have such a heart, and Chu Zihou's admiration for her unconsciously increased a little.

After a while, Chen's mother came in with the finished osmanthus cake.

Chu Zihou immediately picked up a piece, but saw that the cake was golden, soft and elastic, with a fragrance in the mouth, sweet and sour in chewing, and cool in the fragrance, he suddenly felt full of relish, and his appetite was great.

"Well, it tastes so good!" Chu Zihou praised while eating.

"Then the prince will eat more!" Hee Zhen said with a smile, and everyone smiled too.

Xizhen asked Chen's mother to make more for Chu Zihou to take back to eat.

When the sun set, Chu Zihou got up to say goodbye, and everyone personally sent him to the sedan chair.

Before leaving, Chu Zihou glanced back at Xi Zhen affectionately before lowering the curtain.

At this glance, not only Xizhen can see clearly, but Du Qiniang and her two sons can also see it clearly.

What an honor it was for a man as wonderful as King Qingping to be liked by him, but they found that although Xi Zhen's expression could not hide his joy, it was very restrained.

"King Qingping's eyes are so gentle when he looks at you!" After entering the house, Xiang'er said to Xizhen with great envy.

Xi Zhen smiled and said nothing.

When the sun went down, Xizhen asked Agui to prepare the carriage, and she wanted to go to Jiangfu.

"I'll go see Yubai." Xizhen told her mother and two older brothers.

Everyone knew that she had a good relationship with Weibai, and they didn't stop her, so they let her go.

When he went to Jiang Mansion, he happened to meet Uncle Jiang Ping coming back from the palace, Xi Zhen hurriedly saluted him, and said, "Uncle Jiang, I have something I want to talk to you about, I don't know if you have time." ”

"Yes, Zhen'er has something to say, come on, let's go to the living room and talk about it." Uncle Jiang Ping said with a smile and immediately led her to the living room.

Hee-jin grew up watching her, and he has always admired her, so he is happy to chat with her.

"Uncle Jiang, do you know who the most eloquent and prestigious envoy of the Xi Kingdom is today?" Hee Zhen sat down and went straight to the point.

"Yo, I knew you cared about these big questions."

"Interested in learning about." Hee-jin replied with a humble face.

"Well, as far as I know, the most qualified and eloquent person is Li Changsheng, who has been sent to the Tribute Country, the Ball Country and Zhang Siguo, and has negotiated several cooperation projects. The year before last, he also sent an envoy to the country, but he heard that the king of the country was very arrogant and asked him to enter through the small door, and he later went in with anger, but the matter was discussed. ”

"Really? But it's okay, let's leave it to the table for a while and see how long it can be arrogant. ”

"Not really, but it is said that the king of the tribute country is also very arrogant, but he is willing to listen to the opinions of his ministers, so the tribute country will always be so prosperous."

"Well, so I think we should cooperate more with these powerful countries and strengthen the exchange of interests."

"What do you use to attract people? To tell the truth, there are few things in our Xi Kingdom that people can look at. ”

"I have my own way, this is also the reason why I came to you this time, I want to ask you to help invite Li Changsheng's envoy to the mansion, and then the three of us will meet, I have something I want to entrust to him."

"That's right, but I don't know him very well, so I don't know if he will go to the appointment."

"Don't be afraid, even if you send someone to invite him, if not, just say that I have something to find him." Shen Xizhen said calmly.

Her story of inventing three new weapons and using her magic to make the river wind is now spreading among the people, and she believes that this envoy will not be regarded as just a boudoir daughter.

If he didn't want to come, she had other ways to meet him.

"Okay, I'll send someone to invite you tomorrow, and I'll call someone to inform you as soon as there is news." Uncle Jiang Ping said.

Xizhen hurriedly thanked him, got up and wanted to go to Wei Bai's boudoir, but he didn't want Wei Bai to come to the door, so he sat down again.

"Sister Zhen has become more and more like a person who has seen the world since she entered the palace to teach, I am really envious!" Jiang Weibai sat down beside Xi Zhen, looked at Uncle Jiang Ping again, and said.

"Different people have different ways of living, you just have to study and play the piano." Uncle Jiang Ping looked at her and said with a smile.

"No matter how well the piano talks and reads a lot, isn't it boring that no one appreciates it?" Jiang Weibai responded.

"If he marries well in the future, won't he be able to share it with him?" Uncle Jiang Ping's kind words appeased.

"Daddy, you will coax people, so what if you find someone who doesn't know how to appreciate?"

"Yes, Bai'er is a treasure, how can Daddy not know? If the person you want to marry doesn't know how to appreciate this, Daddy won't agree to let you marry. ”

"Daddy, this is what you said, the husband I married one day can't help but know how to play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting."

"Of course, when did Daddy lie to you?"

"Sister Zhen, I used to be very curious about life in the palace, but now that you are in the palace, you have to tell me about the things in this palace." Jiang Weibai turned around again and took Xi Zhen's hand and said. (My novel will have more fresh content on the official WeChat platform, and there will also be a 100% lucky draw gift for everyone!)
