Bai Li Yi sneered: "Lord Luo? Lord Luo is just a secretary of the military department, and he can calculate how much he has in a year, where did he get so much money to take care of so many killers, and kill you one after another? ”

Ru Xi looked down at his toes, the corners of his mouth bent slightly, this hundred miles of deduction is also a little brainy, but it is a pity that when he was in the Tongle Palace, none of those ministers dared to stand up and say a word.

Bailiyan is a smart emperor, how could Bailiyan not think of anything that Bailiyan could want? The only thing that can be explained is that Bailiyan deliberately pushed the boat down the river to suppress this matter, and it is also possible that Lord Zhuo would do this, and it was also Bailiyan's instructions.

She is just one person after all, and Concubine Yan's family has a great cause and greater power, how can the emperor offend Concubine Yan for her?

"What are you laughing at?"

Ru Xi raised her head suddenly, the tassels on the garland swayed, the red marks on her face loomed, she shook her head again, the tassels shook even more, Baili Yi's face changed slightly, Ru Xi simply took off the garland, deliberately stretched her waist, and said: "How can the concubine laugh, Your Highness is afraid that she is wrong." ”

Baili Yi didn't stay for a moment, got up and walked out.

Qingliu fetched water in, met Baili Yi at the door of the room, and asked Ru Xi when he saw his angry expression: "Miss, what's wrong with the prince?" ”

Ru Xi smiled: "It is estimated that I will have nightmares at night." ”

In the afternoon of the next day, a palace maid sent a letter to Baili Xue, saying that she did not dare to come to the prince's mansion, so she could only ask Ru Xi to go to the imperial garden to play.

After folding the letter, Ru Xi said, "Aoyagi, get ready, let's go to the Imperial Garden." ”

"Miss, the sun is so big, what are you going to do in the Imperial Garden?"

"Stay in the house all day, this face and hands are white, and occasionally basking in the sun is healthy, go and prepare."

Because the sun is really a little strong, and there is no wind, there is occasionally a gust of wind, which is also a hot wind, and the flowers in the imperial garden are sunburned, and the huge imperial garden is quiet, and even the palace maids who are watering the flowers and hoeing grass can't see it.

Aoyagi helped Ru Xi hold an oil-paper umbrella and trotted to follow Ru Xi's side, the steps under his feet were small steps, and he would step on Ru Xi's heels if he took a little bigger.

Seeing that she was struggling to hold on, Ru Xi pushed the umbrella away with a smile, "You can hold it yourself, I want to bask in the sun." ”

As soon as Aoyagi heard it, she knew that Ru Xi had said that on purpose, and she still helped Ru Xi hold on.

The two of them soon walked to the lotus pond, and Baili Xue, who was sitting in the pavilion enjoying the coolness, saw Ru Xi and beckoned: "Come quickly, the sun is so big outside." ”

Ru Xi smiled: "You just jumped from here yesterday, if you let Concubine Yan Niangniang know, she will definitely send someone to arrest you back, and in the future, I will never let you approach here again." ”

Bai Lixue pouted and said: "Don't mention my mother, I don't know what she is thinking, she actually didn't let me be friends with you, and said, you approached me for a purpose, Ru Xi, you really treat me as a friend, right?" ”

She really guessed correctly, yesterday in the Tongle Palace, Concubine Yan saw her and Baili Xue talking and laughing in the center of the hall, her eyes were cloudy, and as soon as the birthday banquet was over, she would let Baili Xue call her over, and she would definitely explain that Baili Xue would not interact with her.

Ru Xi nodded: "What about the princess?" Do you really think of me as a friend? If yes, then the princess and I have the same heart. ”

When Bai Lixue heard this, she took Ru Xi's hand with a smile and said: "Of course I really treat you as a friend, do you know, I grew up in this palace since I was a child, I came to stretch out my hand to eat, my mother loved me, my father also loved me, and my brother spoiled me, in the eyes of others, how much happiness I should have, but I am often unhappy, I have a lot of things on my mind, I can't tell my father and mother to listen, tell my brother, my brother will cut off my back road with a word." Speaking of this, Bai Lixue's tears fell, she sniffed, clenched Ru Xi's hand, and said with a smile, "It's okay now, I can tell you later." ”

The golden branches and jade leaves in the eyes of others will also have such and such troubles, and Ru Xi is a little sympathetic to Baili Xue.

No wonder people say that happiness is not happiness, only you know, and what others see may not be true.

"What's on your mind? Let me guess. Ru Xi looked at Bai Lixue's ill-intentioned gaze, and then nodded again, "I know, it must be the princess who has a sweetheart." ”

After speaking, the two palace maids and Aoyagi behind Baili Xue all laughed in unison, Bai Lixue was so red from laughter that she pulled her throat and said, "Don't laugh!" ”

Ru Xi knew that she had guessed correctly, so she asked Aoyagi and the palace maid to step down.

Baili Xue was still a little embarrassed, Ru Xi said: "Which girl doesn't have spring, princess, you are awkward." ”

Baili Xue glared at Ru Xi and asked, "Ru Xi, how old are you?" ”

"I'll be seventeen after the New Year."

When Bai Lixue heard this, she propped her hands on the table, and there was a hint of resentment, "I'm eighteen years old after the New Year." ”

Eighteen years old is already considered an old age in Qi State, if he was born in an ordinary people's family, he would be laughed at and unable to marry.

"Didn't my father marry you?" Even if Bailiyan likes Bailixue again, it is impossible to keep her daughter by her side for the rest of her life.

"When I was fourteen years old, my father helped me point out the first marriage, which was to marry far away to the Qin country, and later, because the mother was reluctant, my father let the county lord of the Han Dynasty marry to the Qin country, when I was fifteen years old, my father helped me to marry, it was Sima Chen, the third son of the Sima Mansion in the capital, I heard that Sima Chen was blind, I was the princess of Qi Kingdom, how could I marry a blind man? What's more, I already have a sweetheart. ”

Hearing Sima Chen's name, Ru Xi couldn't help but say a few good words for him, "Princess, there is a way that no one is perfect, and Sima Chen is no worse than anyone except for blindness." ”

Bai Lixue tilted her head and asked, "You seem to know Sima Chen?" Ru Xi smiled: "I've only seen him twice." ”

"How do you know if he's okay twice?" Bai Lixue didn't look very interested, so Ru Xi didn't continue, but asked, "What kind of man can actually capture the princess's heart?" ”

"Guess?" Baili Xue smiled mischievously, Ru Xi thought about it, and said: "This person must be a talent, with an extraordinary atmosphere, a jade tree in the wind, and a graceful demeanor, and a good look." ”

Ru Xi racked her brains and said all the words that could be described, and Bai Lixue smiled after hearing it: "How can you say it so well." ”

"If it's not good, how can the princess look at it?" Ru Xi squeezed her eyebrows and smiled, knowing that Ru Xi was making fun of her, Baili Xue got up and chased after Ru Xi, Ru Xi hurriedly dodged, and the two of them circled around the stone table.

"You know how to laugh at me." couldn't catch up for a while, and Baili Xue was so angry that he stomped his feet.

Ru Xi flashed and said, "I didn't laugh at you!" It's just curious. ”
