Besides, Xiao Rou followed the prince back to the palace by mistake, and suddenly felt that life was like a year.

In the past, she was the daughter of the prime minister's mansion, and she lived a comfortable life with clothes and food. In addition to stroking the qin and chanting poems, appreciating the flowers and tasting the moon every day, it is to play with Nian Nian or the maids.

And now, he has inexplicably become a small servant in the palace prince Yonghe Palace.

Not only did she have to wear coarse cloth clothes every day, but she also had to eat meals with her subordinates three times a day, which was simply difficult for her to swallow.

Compared with her former life of young lady, it was really a heaven and an earth.

And the most unbearable thing for her is that she has to hide her long hair in her hat all the time, and wrap her clothes tightly so that she can't reveal her identity as a daughter.

When Xiao Rou followed the prince back to the palace, she still thought that when she arrived in the capital, she would not be far from the Prime Minister's Mansion, and maybe she could find a chance to meet Niannian.

Then she can tell Sù Niannian that she has lost all her money, and Niannian will definitely find a way to get her silver taels again, and she can fly away again.

When she entered the palace, she realized how naïve her idea was.

In the palace, the palace gate is heavy and the guards are strict, not to mention that she is a weak woman, and even a person with strong martial arts like her brother wants to enter and exit at will without anyone knowing, it is very difficult.

Prince Li Mo is a very busy person. Because since he is the crown prince, he is the successor chosen by the emperor, and of course he will be busy with government affairs.

Since Li Mo returned to the palace, Xiao Rou has rarely seen him.

However, Li Mo is a good talker, and he takes special care of her, and he specially tells Liu Gongbus, who arranges affairs, that this person is weak and weak, and let her do a little chores.

So Xiaorou is in the palace, she is actually very idle and boring every day, no one pays attention to her and no one pays attention to her.

For a few days she circled around the palace walls, but could not find a place to go out. After trying a few times, she knew that it would be difficult to get out of here with her own strength, so she could only temporarily dispel the idea of escaping.

In the palace, the only place Xiao Rou likes is the imperial garden. She has loved flowers and plants since she was a child, and the imperial garden is several times larger than the garden at home, and the variety of flowers and plants is not much more than that of Xiangfu.

Therefore, Xiaorou will sneak to the imperial garden whenever she is free, smell the flowers, enjoy the flowers, hum songs, and pick her favorite flowers, at which time she will feel relaxed and refreshed.

In the afternoon of this day, the people were busy with their own business, and Xiao Rou secretly ran to the imperial garden again.

At this time, there is usually no one in the imperial garden, and the princesses have just finished lunch and are resting in the palace.

So Xiaorou was extraordinarily relaxed, bathing in the warm sunshine of early autumn, smelling the faint aroma of exotic flowers and plants around, she couldn't help but sing quietly: "In autumn, sunny days, daughter's house, busy with makeup......"

Xiao Rou played and sang among the flowers, singing song after song. Feeling a little tired, she stopped and rested gently among the flowers. She used to do this a lot when she was at home.

But at this time, she suddenly heard a male voice: "Don't you think it's too much? ”

Then, Xiao Rou saw a man in white slowly stand up from the flowers, where she had just fallen.

"Huh? Who are you? What are you doing here? Xiao Rou was shocked, stood up and took several steps back.

"I should ask you this, I finished lunch, came to the imperial garden to bask in the sun, sleep and sleep, and didn't provoke anyone." The man folded a flower and put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it gently, looking at Xiaorou's panicked appearance, he seemed to be very satisfied: "Why did someone run over and sing and dance, so noisy that my ears were not idle for a moment, and I endured it, but I didn't expect her to get an inch, and now she wants to lie on top of me, I can't help but speak." ”

"What? Lying on top of you? Xiao Rou was startled again, looked at him and looked at herself, only to find that she was lying down just now where the man had slept.

"Hehe, I can't ask for a chick to take the initiative to give me a hug, but I never like women who dress up as men." The man smiled and looked Su Xiaorou up and down, his eyes shining with a playful light.

"You! How do you know I'm a woman? Xiao Rou was panicked now, she looked down at herself again, there was no flaw.

"Hahaha." The man laughed a few times and said, "What man would try to put a flower on his head like you?" What guy would sing a girl's song like you? And ......" He paused, and a pair of handsome black eyes looked at Su Xiaorou even more intently: "What man will have such a delicate and beautiful singing voice as yours, so I bet you are not a man, and you will not be a eunuch." ”

"I ......" Xiaorou blushed, she felt that this person was too powerful.

For example, the prince has known her for so long, and there are so many people in the palace, so he has never discovered the secret that she is a girl. And this person only saw her this time, but recognized her at a glance as a woman disguised as a man.

"Now that you know, help me keep it a secret, and I'll thank you." Xiao Rou had no choice but to say.

The man was stunned for a moment, he thought that Xiao Rou would argue and be cunning, and insisted that he was a man, because there were too many illusions and lies in this palace.

I didn't expect this girl to be so honest, to admit it so simply, and to ask herself to keep it a secret for her, it seems that she doesn't have a sense of defense, which is really rare.

He thought for a moment and smiled lightly: "I can keep it a secret for you, how are you going to thank me?" ”

"This ...... I don't know, I don't have much money now, but as long as you keep it a secret for me, I'll definitely thank you. Xiaorou bit her lip and said.

"I don't want money, I'm a person, I lack everything, but I don't lack money to spend." A mocking smile crossed the corner of the man's mouth, and he said, "Well, you can come here tomorrow to sing to me, even if you thank you." ”

"It's as simple as that, then I'll sing to you, you have to talk and count, don't say I'm a girl." Xiao Rou breathed a sigh of relief when she heard him say this.

"Well, that's a deal, I'll be waiting for you here at this time tomorrow. But for now, I want to know your name first. The man looked at Su Xiaorou playfully, unable to hide his interest in her.

"My name is Little Comb, and I have to go now." After Su Xiaorou finished speaking, she turned around and ran away.

When she followed the prince back to the palace, the prince asked her name, and at that time, Su Xiaorou had an idea and said that her name was Little Comb, so everyone in the palace called her Little Comb. Now that this person asked her name again, of course she didn't want to say that her name was Little Comb.

"Little comb? What a strange name. The man smiled slightly, looked at Su Xiaorou's back as she ran away lightly, and thought: This is really an interesting girl, obviously beautiful and moving, but for some reason I want to dress up like this, it seems that my boring palace life will not be so boring in the future......

Returning to the Yonghe Hall of the Prince's East Palace, Xiao Rou was secretly relieved to see that there was no one around. I was rejoicing, but I heard a hoarse but shrill voice calling: "Little comb, where are you lazy again?" ”

Su Xiaorou turned her head and saw that it was Liu Gonggong, the chief eunuch of Yonghe Palace.

She hurriedly replied, "I just went to the Imperial Garden. ”

"The Imperial Garden is a place for minions like you to play! Although it is the prince who brought you back and protects you on weekdays, you also have to learn to be a little more interesting, don't patronize and run around every day, and watch more things in your eyes. Gonggong Liu squinted at Su Xiaorou and said in a weird manner.

He didn't like this little comb in his heart, he looked weak, he couldn't help but be neither male nor female, but he was not the same father-in-law as them. If it hadn't been for the prince's orders, he would have wanted to assign him some physical work.

"Yes." Xiaorou agreed, but secretly complained in her heart: What a big Yonghe Palace, it really costs people to clean it alone every day......

She suddenly thought again, just now that person asked her to go to the Imperial Garden to sing tomorrow afternoon, and now it seems that she doesn't know if she can go tomorrow? I hope I can complete the task sooner by then.

Although I don't know that person, but looking at his luxurious style in brocade clothes, he must also be the prince and grandson of the palace nobleman, I hope he can keep it a secret for me......

Xiao Rou thought silently, and couldn't help but be a little distracted.

"Little comb! Don't be so distracted every day! Gonggong Liu snorted, and said: "The little noble son was called by Princess Lanxin to have something, the prince is in the study, you send this wedding dress to the prince, and wait for the prince to change clothes." In a few days, the prince will have a big wedding ceremony, and the queen mother has explained, and it is better to let the prince try it first. ”

Xiao Rou noticed that Gonggong Liu was holding several thick stacks of red clothes, boots and hats in his hands.

Waiting for the prince to change his clothes? The prince's wedding?

Xiao Rou was slightly shocked in her heart, she had already escaped from marriage, so what happened to the prince's wedding? Could it be that the emperor has canceled the marriage to Xiaorou and given the prince a family affair?

If so, that's great. In the near future, maybe I can return to the Prime Minister's Mansion and see my father, brother, and Niannian......

Thinking like this, Su Xiaorou suddenly became excited, quickly took the clothes, boots and hats in Father-in-law Liu's hand, and replied respectfully: "Yes, the little comb obeys Father-in-law's orders." ”

With that, she walked towards the prince's study, forgetting that she would not change the prince's clothes or anything at all.

Walking into the study, I saw that the prince Li Mo was thinking about something at the desk, his eyebrows were slightly locked, and his eyes were distant, adding a cold and elegant temperament to him.

Xiao Rou stood aside and shouted timidly, "Prince." ”

For this prince, she always has a feeling of respecting and staying away in her heart. Although she has become more familiar with the prince in Yonghe Hall during this time, and the prince is gentle to her, but when she thinks that he almost became her husband, Xiao Rou still has a strange desire to avoid.
