Chapter 221 ~ Chapter 222 Doubt

The second prince, Xiao Yi, wrinkled his eyebrows and looked at Xiao Cuo, his scrutinizing eyes as if he was looking at a stranger.

Xiao Cuo didn't care, only the golden knife horse sat upright, and the old god was looking out of the window, as if there was a beautiful scenery in that corner, which caused the second prince to look at that place.

But there was nothing but a green bush outside the window.

The second prince couldn't help but be a little anxious.

"Uncle Xiaohuang, you can't go on like this, your current state makes people can't see the grandeur and self-confidence of the year at all, who is the one who participated in the imperial examination incognito and passed all the way to the palace examination? Who was the fifteen-year-old who broke into the chain village and destroyed the enemy camp? Who is the god of war who has terrified the enemy in southern Xinjiang for the past two years? ”

Xiao Cuo's expression remained unchanged, and the shock in his heart was not visible on his face, and he only said: "All the past, what are you doing mentioning these now?" As you said, I'm really just a hot kang head for my wife and children. The Great Zhou Dynasty is stable, the imperial brother knows how to make good use of people, and you all have your own strengths, and there are many civil and military officials who are eager to make contributions, why is there no worry about Xiao? Without me, the world of Da Zhou is still Da Zhou. I have what I want to do. ”

"What do you want to do? Just circling around a woman? Uncle Xiaohuang, to say something disrespectful, you are two years younger than me, you are still young, the future is still long, you are still fresh when you are newly married, wait for three years and five years, can your mind continue to be a woman? At that time, even if the beauty is in your arms and the children are around your knees, you will still have a few years of delayed youth. When the husband is alive, he must make meritorious contributions. If you waste your youth and regret it, you are afraid that the wind and clouds will change when the time comes, and you will be wasted for many years! ”

Xiao Cuo finally moved his gaze to the second prince looking out of the window.

Seeing him like this, the second prince was hopeful, and leaned forward slightly: "Uncle Xiaohuang, have you figured it out?" ”

"Figured it out." Xiao Cuo nodded. Under the expectant gaze of the second prince, he smiled and said: "I still want to be with your little aunt, travel the mountains and rivers, and eat all over the Great Zhou." ”

The second prince's face froze, and then anger surged up like magma, and he said angrily: "Uncle Xiao Huang is all about a woman. If it is really because of this woman's existence, your wits will will be wiped out. buried your talents, that little aunt is the likes of Daji, a sinner! ”

Xiao Cuo's face changed. "You'd better not say a word about her in front of me!"

"If it weren't for her. You're not as scrappy as you are now! The second prince got up angrily. Strode out of the meteor, but just arrived at the door but was stunned.

Under the corridor, she is delicate, dressed in a red waist jacket, and a beauty with a black lacquer luodian tray in her hand. Didn't he just curse the sinners of the waters?

She raised her eyes and saw that the sparkling waves flashed in her big eyes, her lips were lightly opened, and she moved the lotus step to the side, like a whole piece of mutton fat white jade carved with a shallow smile on her face, "Second Highness." ”

She should have heard it, right?

The second prince was speechless, and when he saw her, his face was like a fire, and at this time, his heartbeat seemed to stop when he met her beautiful eyes. If she had listened to it, she would have hated him by this time......

The second prince stiffened his hand and said embarrassedly: "Little aunt." ”

"I just made a snack and sent it here, don't you want the second prince to taste it before leaving?" Fu Ying heard the soft words and smiled sincerely, as if he hadn't heard his curses at all.

The second prince had some hope again.

She probably didn't hear it, did she?

Xiao Cuo had already arrived, took the tray in her hand and took her waist with the other hand and led the person into the hall: "Brother Yi, don't go." To tell you the truth, I have known your little aunt for so long, and it is difficult to see her cook, basically I am learning to cook for her. Now that you're blessed, why don't you try her handiwork? ”

Just scolded people for being a red face and a bad water, where does he have the face to eat the dim sum prepared by the bad water at this time?

The second prince shook his head and left.

Fu Ying gave Xiao a wrong look.

Xiao Cuo glanced at the light green crystal clear pastries on the plate on the right side suspiciously, directly picked it up and called Ah Yuan to prepare the food box, and chased it to the mansion where the second prince lived.

When Ah Yuan chased him out, Xiao Cuo took Fu Ying's hand and shook it: "Why are you so good to him, and you still give him pastries?" If he doesn't eat it, he won't eat it, and I'll keep the dim sum you made! ”

Fu Ying raised her eyebrows: "Do you like to eat mustard green pepper cake?" ”

Xiao Cuo......

"That good-looking light green pastry just now, wasabi green pepper cake?"

"yes." Fu Ying picked up a piece of red bean cake and fed it to Xiao Cuo, and said with a smile: "Anyway, my reputation outside is already extremely bad, and I will never be bad again." I didn't listen to all of what you just said, but I heard a lot, do you mind if I tell me how I feel? ”

Xiao mistakenly chewed the red bean crisp, and was surprised to find that the dim sum tasted surprisingly good, sweet but not greasy, crispy and smooth, and he felt that those who didn't like sweets felt a great appetite.

Xiao Cuo couldn't help but start wondering what that mustard green pepper cake tasted like.

Fu Ying saw that he didn't speak, but just looked at him to speak, so he sat down beside him with a smile and said, "I think your nephew is very problematic." ”

"How?" squirted out a little bit of heartache and was slapped off by him at will.

"If his words are not contrary to his will, it means that he is really a selfless and loving person, although he is for your fame and future, and even does not hesitate to say something that angers you at the end, but if you are an outsider, the person who can inherit the throne is the second prince except you, you are obviously competitors, you retreat bravely, he should be happy to see it."

Xiao Cuo took a sip of tea, rinsed his mouth again, and then said: "What you said makes sense, but it's not all, Brother Yi once disappeared when he was a child, and it took a lot of effort for the imperial brother to find the person, since he came back, although we are uncles and nephews, he stays with me all day long like my brother, our relationship is naturally extraordinary, plus the two years of the Southern Xinjiang War, we are uncles and nephews, brothers, and comrades." You won't understand the feelings that have been fought on the battlefield. ”

"So you'd rather believe he's not hostile."

"Yes." Xiao Cuo nodded.

Fu Ying thoughtfully turned the blood jade bracelet on his wrist.

Xiao Cuo was born in the royal family and was raised by the emperor in the palm of his hand. Since he was a child, he got the best education, and he was favored by the most noble person in the world, although he had never seen his father's face, and his mother died early, but his brother loved him so much, giving him a man dreams of money, power, and a woman who can get as long as he wants.

He has always lived a smooth life, and he has not personally experienced the situation that even blood relatives may betray her like she did, and how can he understand her defenses.

When dealing with people, the first thing he wants to believe is that the other person is full of good intentions.

And she was first skeptical. I wonder if those good intentions have another purpose.

She is also now using her habit to speculate about his family.

Fu Ying's feelings are somewhat complicated. She wasn't afraid that Xiao Cuo would think she was bad, but she just felt that Xiao Cuo was too beautiful sometimes, which made her a little ashamed.

"Little fool?" Xiao Cuo fed the snack to her mouth: "It's rare, why don't you eat it today?" ”

Since Fu Ling appeared. It completely opened her vigilance. She was worried about him now. If this is the case, it can still be eaten safely, and then it is a pig.

Fu Ying took a bite and said for a while: "That's it, you really want to take me on a boat in the rivers and lakes." It's not deliberate, maybe it can be crooked. ”

Xiao Cuo heard Fu Ying's words, just smiled and didn't say anything, and rubbed her head with his big hand: "I just said that you are not allowed to worry about things outside, but you are too energetic, and you should be punished." ”

"Penalty what?"

Xiao Cuo smiled: "You are not allowed to eat crispy chicken." ”

Fu Ying glared at him.

The look of grievance in her eyes was like a little milk cat that had been hungry for a few meals and had been robbed of food, Xiao Cuo was in a good mood, and she didn't stop until she rubbed her hair.

On the carriage, the second prince was choking and coughing all over his face at this moment, and the little chamberlain who was serving close next to him hurriedly handed over water: "Your Highness, are you okay?" ”

The second prince was hurt by the spicy brain, took the water and rinsed his mouth, and wiped his nose and tears with a handkerchief.

Looking at the crystal clear pale green dim sum on the plate, I thought of the delicate beauty I had just seen, and I was a little confused for a while.

What kind of dim sum is this, it's clearly a whole person!

The second prince was stunned for a long time, and suddenly sneered.

The little attendants who served were stunned, "Your Highness, you ......"

"Take this snack back and give it to a few people in the backyard, one piece per person, and eat it in person before you are allowed to go back."

The little chamberlain blinked and silently lit wax for several concubines in the backyard.

The second prince lifted the curtain of the car and looked at the pedestrians on the street, but his tense face after leaving the palace was relaxed at this time.

Do you really not love the country and love the beauty?

Thinking of the person he had just seen, looking at the snacks on the plate, the second prince retreated comfortably and affectionately, and lowered the curtain with a very complicated pursed lip.

All the way back to Kunning Palace, when I saw the queen, I told Fang Cai about the palace together.

When the queen heard this, she pulled him to her side and said in a low voice, "Do you look at Xiao Wuwu and say those words from the heart?" ”

"Uncle Xiao Huang is used to doing things his own way, and he is now a beautiful woman, so he is naturally tied to the beauty, and that person is really a wonderful person, I think Uncle Xiao Huang is serious."

Seeing Aiko's yearning look, the queen felt a little strange in her heart, and reprimanded: "You don't want to learn from him, you should understand what is the most important thing." ”

The second prince shook his head when he heard this, and said, "Queen Mother, you can't learn these things." Erchen didn't have the opportunity to meet such a person. ”

Still envious.

The queen said helplessly: "A manly husband, he should make meritorious contributions in life, and what can he do with love and love with only one mind." ”

"The queen mother's lesson is extreme." The second prince smiled and turned to something else: "...... I also know who is spreading the word outside, saying that the princess of Xiang is a charm and inviting a goblin, this word spreads, and the relationship between Da Zhou and Dongsheng is not good, and the royal people look at such a goblin, it is too blind. The most important thing is that I am worried that Uncle Xiao Huang will be dissatisfied with it. ”

The queen's brows were already twisted into a pimple: "There are still such rumors!" Who the hell is so brainless! ”

The second prince lowered his eyes and was silent.

The queen didn't want to understand everything, it must have been Mrs. Pang, who loved her daughter, who spread the word. As a mother, it is understandable to do such things for the sake of her daughter. It's just that her mind can't help but think that things are too simple.

Originally, not everyone knew about Miss Pang, if she was Mrs. Pang, most of them would find a reliable person to marry their daughter, but now that it has spread, she has become a well-known old girl, so wouldn't it be embarrassing to be asked about it when she talks about her relationship in the future?

What's more, creating public opinion is a double-edged sword, and it would be extremely stupid to abandon the future for the sake of a small profit in the present.

The queen called the grandmother beside her, whispered a few words, and ordered someone to go to the Pang family.

The second prince accompanied the queen for a while, and then returned to the prince's mansion outside the palace.

got a reply from the next person, saying that the concubines in the backyard were choking with tears, and the second prince couldn't help but laugh out loud.

This will make him appreciate the refreshment of this kind of prank, and he will envy it again when he thinks that Xiao Cuo has been playing his life so far and living so freely.

Xiao Cuo didn't go out of the house for a few days, he only accompanied Fu Ying in the palace, the two were newly married, naturally hot, most of the time Xiao Cuo came to study the inheritance of the heirs with Fu Ying, and the rest only dealt with a small amount of official documents, and the rest either accompanied Fu Ying to hang out, or accompanied her to cook and eat, or took her around the mansion with light skills.

Xiao Cuo was too considerate and caring for her, so that Fu Ying felt that he was making up for her the company that he didn't owe for two years.

If she gets used to it like this, she will be reluctant to part with him.

Taking advantage of Fu Ying's lunch break, Xiao mistakenly called Archer and Ah Yuan to whisper in the courtyard.

"Have the rumors on the street subsided?"

"Not yet, such a low-level trick, at a glance, you can know that it was done by the female relatives of the Pang family." Ah Yuan said disdainfully: "That group of people is really enough, the princess stays at home all day long, and the serious royal relatives don't recognize everything, where did the family members of those courtiers come from so many conclusive words?" ”

Archer was also disdainful: "Their gossip has been spread for a long time, and I am afraid that the envoys who will ask Dongsheng to send off their relatives will not like it." Although the princess and the prince have been married, but in the end, the days are still long, if this matter is not handled properly, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not be taken by the Dongsheng people. ”

Ah Yuan and Ah Che both looked at Xiao Cuo.

Xiao Cuo pondered for a moment and said, "It's better not to let your princess know about this matter." She is that person, don't look at her hard mouth, but her heart is soft, it will be sad to talk about her behind her back like that, not to mention that she was not wrong in the first place, this matter was deliberately involved in her back. ”

"Lord Wang, are you going to let that villain go like this?" Ah Yuan asked.

Archer glared at Ah Yuan: "You will instigate the prince, this is better than less than one thing, and after the prince comes back from southern Xinjiang, he should also keep his light and keep quiet." ”

Ah Yuan pursed his lips, feeling that what Archer said made sense.

Xiao Cuo stared at Archer, and then sighed: "Don't pay attention to it for now, if the rumors continue, let's wait and see, anyway, with me, if someone wants to cause substantial harm to her, it will not be so easy." (To be continued......)
