Chapter 433: Double-faced Girl
Su Yan looked at her in amazement.
At this moment, the palace maid behind Princess Zhiluo suddenly bent down and whispered to her:
"Princess, it's not too early, if you don't go back, you will be found by Niangniang, and Niangniang will be worried again."
Princess Zhiluo's face returned to an expression of lack of interest, but she didn't say anything, was silent for a while, drank the sour plum soup in her hand, stood up, and said lightly:
"Let's go back." Facing Su Yan, he asked very casually, "How did you come here?" ”
Su Yan hurriedly stood up, he had a confused expression, and when he saw her asking, he hurriedly replied: "Back to the princess, the grass people came on foot." ”
"Really? Xueyizhuang is not close to here. Princess Zhiluo was slightly surprised.
"Yes." Su Yan didn't know what to answer, but he couldn't help replying, so he replied curtly.
"It's so good that I can walk around unrestrained, but I want to walk outside the palace unrestrained in my dreams." Princess Zhiluo said.
Su Yan became more and more restrained because he didn't know what to respond to.
"The Poseidon Festival is also over, if you have nothing else to do, just drop by, I'll send you back."
"Huh?" Su Yan was stunned.
"Don't want me to send you?" Princess Zhiluo asked.
"No, don't dare!" Su Yan's brain was already a mess, and he stumbled and said, "Then there is Princess Lao." He agreed, not knowing what he was talking about.
Princess Zhiluo saw that he agreed, nodded, and whispered to the maid beside her, the maid called someone to summon the carriage, a carriage with the "Xiangwangfu" brand, not big, but it looked very comfortable, it was obvious that Her Royal Highness the princess was secretly running out to play in the name of her brother, although Su Yan didn't feel like she was having fun, because her expression didn't look happy at all.
Su Yan couldn't figure out how the difference between Her Royal Highness the princess and her before and after could be so big, when she first saw her, she obviously thought she was an innocent girl full of sunshine, but this encounter accidentally found that this girl seemed to be very dark in private!
Princess Zhiluo lifted her skirt and got into the carriage, Su Yan is a man and a commoner, so naturally it is impossible to ride with the princess, and it is already a great grace to let him find a corner on the wheel to sit down, so Su Yan confessed and sat on the wheel honestly.
A maid beside Princess Zhiluo, who looked lively with big eyes, smiled secretly when she saw his restrained appearance, and after entering the carriage, she whispered to Princess Zhiluo:
"Princess, that brother outside is nervous, and the slave and maid see that his fingers are trembling, like ...... It's like a big bunny! ”
As she said this, several other palace maids giggled, and one of them patted the big-eyed palace maid's arm and pursed her lips and smiled:
"Zhichun, your mouth is so bad!"
Zhichun looked at Princess Zhiluo with a smile, she wanted to make the princess laugh, but unfortunately the princess had no expression at all. Because there were no outsiders, Princess Zhiluo took off her embroidered shoes, sat on the soft stool with her hands and knees, and said nothing, she looked out the window, her eyes did not meet, and she was as silent as death.
The smile on Zhichun's face faded, and the others didn't dare to joke anymore when they saw this, so they poured a cup of clear and clear white dew tea and put it in front of Princess Zhiluo, and persuaded softly:
"Don't worry too much about the princess, although the matter of harmony is already a certainty, but the emperor loves the princess so much, he will definitely not let the princess marry so far away in Kosi."
Princess Zhiluo looked straight out of the window and was silent for a while before she said lightly:
"What's the matter, you always have to marry, marrying someone and marrying a monkey is to marry, originally a woman's fate is to marry and have children, this palace is a princess is also a woman, a woman's fate can't escape, as long as the father, the emperor, the mother, the concubine and the brother are happy."
In one sentence, Fu Dong felt sad in his heart, and comforted softly:
"Princess, don't say such things, don't say anything else, His Royal Highness King Wu treats the princess as a pain in his heart, didn't His Royal Highness King Wu also tell the princess, he will definitely find a princess's favorite horse for the princess!"
Princess Zhiluo's expression didn't change much, but after Fu Dong said this, she obviously felt that the air around Princess Zhiluo suddenly became depressed. Frightened, Fu Dong looked cautiously at the side face of Princess Zhiluo, as if ready to withstand her sudden outburst. However, Princess Zhiluo was only silent for a while, and then smiled faintly:
"My brother's guilt is too boring."
Fu Dong's heart went up and down, staring at her closed lips, for fear that she would say something terrifying.
However, Princess Zhiluo stopped talking, she had closed her long eyelashes and pretended to sleep.
Su Yan endured a period of time, and the carriage finally arrived at the gate of Xueyizhuang, he climbed out of the tall carriage, walked to the window and saluted the window, and said solemnly:
"Thank you, Your Highness Princess, for sending the grass people back."
Unlike other carriages, the window of this carriage is not equipped with a screen, but an empty square hole, no matter from which angle you can see Princess Zhiluo's flawless little face, Su Yan became more and more frightened, he pressed his head low, did not dare to look up, he could feel Princess Zhiluo's gaze above his head, cool as water, clear as ice.
After a while, he heard Princess Zhiluo suddenly ask:
"Is Brother Ah Wei at home?"
Su Yan was stunned for a moment, and replied stubbornly: "He, today is the lottery day of the Chef King Liang Du Competition, and he should be in Huixiang Building." ”
"Well, yes, tomorrow is the King of Chef competition." Princess Zhiluo folded her arms on the window frame, and suddenly asked him with a smile, "What do you usually call Brother Ah Wei?" Brother-in-law? ”
Su Yan repulsed when he heard the word "brother-in-law", and replied with his head down: "He and his sister have not yet married, and it is too early to call him 'brother-in-law'." ”
"Wow, the tone of rejection is so strong, Brother Ah Wei wants to marry your sister makes you very annoying?" Princess Zhiluo asked with an interested smile.
Su Yan didn't know how to answer, and was speechless.
Princess Zhiluo didn't need him to answer, she stared at his curled eyelashes condescendingly for a while, and suddenly said:
"Your eyelashes are so long, and they're curly, even better than my eyelashes, like two feather fans."
Su Yan was stunned, subconsciously raised his head, and his stunned expression looked quite hazy.
Princess Zhiluo chuckled, she giggled, and the four palace maids beside her laughed equally confused.
Because Su Yan didn't know what she was laughing at, she was so angry with laughter that her expression became even hazy.
"You're interesting." Princess Zhiluo smiled and said to him, "What's your name?" ”
"Grass people Su smoke, grass head Su, smoke of cooking smoke." Su Yan replied curtly.
"Smoke?" The smile on Princess Zhiluo's lips deepened, "My name is Liang Xi." ”
"Huh?" Su Yan was stunned.
"Do you think my name is 'Zhiluo'?" Princess Zhiluo asked with a giggle.
Su Yan came back to her senses, her face flushed, and the "Zhiluo" in Princess Zhiluo knew that it must be a title, and in addition to the title, she naturally has a girlfriend name.
"Call me 'Liang Xi' next time." Princess Zhiluo said with a smile.
That smile is like a hundred flowers blooming.
Su Yan's face turned red, and he looked at her smile blankly, helpless.
"Go back to the palace." Fu Dong commanded the coachman.
The coachman silently urged the carriage, and the carriage left Xueyizhuang and headed for Liangducheng.
In the center of the inner city of Liangdu, sitting in the direction of north and facing south, is the majestic palace wall, where the imperial city is located.
The imperial city is divided into the inner palace and the outer palace, and the north and south are divided into the inner palace and the outer palace by the Mingxi Palace on the central axis, and the inner palace is separated by the queen's dormitory Mingcui Palace on the central axis, separating the east and west six palaces.
Princess Zhiluo's Changxi Palace is on the east side of the inner palace, Changxi Palace is the largest and most luxurious palace where the princess lives, and Princess Zhiluo is also the most favored among all the princesses, but these are not too important, because the other princesses have already married, and she is the only princess in the whole palace who has not yet married, even if she has the heart to compare, no one can compare with her.
At this time, the palace maid of Changxi Palace was anxiously waiting at the door of the main hall, and when she saw Liang Xi coming back, she hurriedly greeted her, bent her knees, and whispered with a frightened face:
"Princess, the concubine is here, waiting inside!"
Liang Xi was not surprised by her mother's arrival, anyway, there were only two ends for her sneaking out of the palace, one was not found and the other was discovered, she stopped and stopped, raised her hands and patted her face, and in an instant, a bright and innocent smile appeared on her little face that was calm and uneventful, like a pool of stagnant water, she jumped into the Changxi Palace, and called sweetly to the beautiful woman sitting in the palace:
"Mother!"
Xue Guifei is very beautiful, even if she is middle-aged, her gorgeous appearance when she was young has not faded, but because it has increased the dignified and romantic precipitated by the baptism of mature women over the years, she looks charming and beautiful.
This is a graceful and introverted woman, so even though she has a posture that is not lost to young women, she chose makeup that is very suitable for her age. Her thick black hair pulled a high bun that was not too complicated but perfectly flattered to the delicate contours of her face, and she wore a set of elegant and noble double-knotted cloud gemstone carved heads, and a sapphire and gold ring on her cheeky hands.
She sat upright in the center of the palace, a pair of rouge lips were pursed, and the hand on the table was slightly clenched, she was very angry, Liang Xi understood her mother, whenever her mother made such a move, it meant that she was angry at this time, it was obvious that her mother was extremely dissatisfied with her frequent sneaking out of the palace, and her mother was really angry this time for her willfulness that she didn't know how to restrain herself.
The angry mother fell into Liang Xi's eyes, and Liang Xi's heart was filled with an irrepressible excitement, she suddenly felt a quick will, she jumped over, stood in front of Xue Guifei, and said happily:
"Mother, it's really rare, you will come to Changxi Palace to see me!"
Since she came in, even if the mother and daughter were facing each other, Xue Guifei never looked at her with her eyes, she tilted her head slightly, kept her eyes on her daughter's sleeve, and her fist on the table was clenched tighter than just now, this was just a small movement, but it was clearly seen by Liang Xi, who had been paying attention to these details.
The smile faded a little, but in an instant, she laughed innocently again, and it was a smile that was even brighter than before:
"The concubine came here at this hour, do you want to have dinner with me?"
Xue Guifei still didn't look at her face, her eyes were still trembling slightly, as if she was enduring some pain. After a while, she spoke slowly, and in a deep reproach:
"Zhiluo, you've been out of the palace too many times in recent days."
Liang Ximan didn't care, she turned around with a smile, sat on the soft couch beside her, picked up the tea on the table and took a sip:
"What's the matter, I just went to play with the second brother and the fifth brother, and I didn't do anything bad, my father didn't care about me, what are you worried about, mother?"
"Zhiluo, don't be willful, you are a princess, not a wild girl in a common family, you have the responsibilities you need to bear, you have the rules you need to follow, your father's connivance with you does not mean that you can be willful, as the princess of the Liang royal family, even if you can't fulfill your responsibilities for your family and your country, at least don't discredit your family and your country, now the court is blaming you for your presumptuous behavior, and even because you frequently wander around the market, even the people have begun to talk about it, Are you still a princess? Are these things you're doing now what you should do as a princess? Your father has a headache because of your behavior, and your brother is also anxious at the court because of your willfulness, how long are you going to mess around? When exactly will you grow up? ”
Xue Guifei was reproaching her, but the tone of the reproach was very gentle, as soft as a feather carefully wiping a fragile item, for fear that the fragile item would suddenly crack if one was not careful. Even if she was blaming, she still didn't look at her daughter's face, her fists were clenched tighter and tighter, and her eyebrows had been twisted into a "Chuan" character.
"Mother, you're worrying too much." Liang Xi looked disappreciative, and said with a smile, "Those discussions in the court are just aimed at the second brother, even if there is no me, those people will still target the second brother when it is time to target the second brother, I am just a princess, a princess who will not be noticed by anyone when it is useless, it doesn't matter what I do, what matters is what the second brother does." ”
"Zhiluo, you ......" Xue Guifei was furious, but what she got from her bitter heart was her daughter's ridicule and disapproval, she stood up and glared at her daughter angrily, but when the eyes of the two sides touched, Xue Guifei quickly turned her eyes away as if she had been electrocuted, she was uncomfortable, her anger was rolling, but she was buried by more helplessness and pain, her chest rose and fell, as if she was suppressing something, she hurriedly said, "In short, you are not allowed to leave the palace without permission, and your fifth brother, I am not targeting that child." , but you still don't come near him again. ”
She finished speaking hurriedly, took a step, and left the Changxi Palace without looking back.
Liang Xi sat on the soft couch, her previous face full of innocent smiles had receded like a tide, and she stared at her mother's back for a moment, until her mother had completely left her palace.
"Don't you even dare to reproach me loudly?" She was indifferent and whispered, "It's so boring! (To be continued.) )
