The eldest princess's Yuquan Palace is also the only one in the palace, just lining her identity, the little princess is familiar, Zhou Baolu is the first time to come, but the eldest princess's attitude and demeanor, as if Zhou Baolu is also used to it, actually did not feel restrained at all, this kind of natural familiarity to others can have the illusion of 'we are really familiar', not everyone can cultivate.

As soon as Zhou Baolu sat down, he saw a palace maid hugging a chubby puppy covered in snow-white, but it was about a foot long, snow-white and long-haired, very cute and lively, and kept struggling.

The eldest princess cried out and took it, and the little guy stopped struggling, and looked at it with dark eyes.

The eldest princess smiled: "My brother gave it to me, and he said that it came from the other side of the sea, and it was called the Jade Lion, but it was good." Xiaorou said last time that she wanted to come and see, but she has never been free, so she will ask the two of you to come and have a look while she is free today. ”

It seems that he really came to see the jade lion.

The eldest princess handed the jade lion to Zhou Baolu as she spoke, and Zhou Baolu just took it, but before she could hold it steadily, the little guy had already struggled, jumped to the ground, and ran out of the door.

The palace maid hurriedly followed, but the eldest princess didn't care, and beckoned them to drink tea: "Last time, my brother said that people over there in Jiangnan love to drink this kind of tea, and I also tasted it, but it's okay, I have asked for some to drink every year in the past two years." ”

Three sentences are not separated from her brother, Zhou Baolu.

But the eldest princess said yes, not in, and it's also very interesting here.

Zhou Baolu pretended not to understand, but the little county lord said, "What, you still have to ask for it?" ”

The eldest princess didn't look sad at all: "Well, it's the year before last, the Ministry of Internal Affairs said that there are cases for things that come in every year, and I don't have this in my rules, so I'll go to someone who has a case and ask for it." ”

There is a sense of righteousness in these words, which is the unique confidence of the princess, but it also reveals the difficulties of the princess in the palace without the support of her biological mother, Zhou Baolu feels sad and sympathetic, but also funny.

This contradictory emotion, like the contradictory qualities of Princess Celestia, is really difficult to explain.

It stands to reason that the princess raised by the living environment of the eldest princess should not be like this, she is naïve and arrogant, and she is straightforward and lacking in heart, but she is easy-going and simple to the people she likes, and she has no princess shelf.

This is a girl who is not at all sensitive to such a thing as a decent reputation.

The little county lord couldn't help laughing: "Who are you looking for?" ”

The eldest princess said: "I asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs who has this case, asked them to give me a list, the Ministry of Internal Affairs said for a long time, and it was not clear, I was annoyed, I said, then you said who has it in this palace, closer to me, but before I finished asking, Concubine Qing sent someone over to say that her mother's family had sent her tea from Jiangnan, and sent some to me to eat, I thought, yes, Concubine Qing's family is not from Jiangnan, maybe it is better than the motivated, I drove the people from the House of Internal Affairs away, and turned back to tell Concubine Qing, bring me some every year." When I turned around, I gave some tea to my brother from Concubine Qing, and I also gave some to my father, who praised me for my filial piety, and thought about him when I got a little tea. ”

Zhou Baolu couldn't hold back and almost laughed out loud.

Is this a real lack of eyes or a false lack of eyes? In short, Concubine Qing definitely has a hard time and can't say it, people are giving her a long face, and they keep saying that Concubine Qing's mother's family gives Concubine Qing Niangniang's things, and they all want to share them with me, I can't swallow them alone, and give some to my father and emperor to taste, it's also Concubine Qing's heart, isn't it?

The eldest princess chattered and said, "How is it, this tea tastes good, right?" This year, the Ministry of Internal Affairs said that I had a case, and also sent me two catties, and I drank it, the same as Concubine Qing gave me! ”

Zhou Baolu felt that she really couldn't see through this girl.

The little county lord smiled and said: "Well, it tastes good, our family seems to have it, you pack a pack and give it to Xiaolu, I see that she likes it very much, even if their family has it, what you give is your heart, isn't it?" ”

The eldest princess nodded yes, asked the maid to fill a box, and said to Zhou Baolu: "Your eyes are so good, there are so many people, you can also see someone doing something, it's amazing!" ”

Zhou Baolu smiled: "Did someone do it?" I thought it was a joke, but I saw it by accident, but I don't usually enter the palace, so I naturally understand what this is about, and it's not good to tell the eldest princess, just when Xiaorou is around, I told Xiaorou that if she wants to come to the palace often, she naturally understands. ”

The eldest princess's eyes lit up, and she took Zhou Baolu's hand and said: "Xiaolu is so good at talking, and tactful, and she understands the meaning, how did you learn, if you have time to teach me, my brother thinks I speak too straight, and I am always annoyed, like you, my brother must like it!" ”

The eldest princess can make Zhou Baolu blush a little rarely, and she can't cry or laugh.

The little county lord couldn't help laughing: "What nonsense are you talking about, look at what you said, don't say that His Royal Highness annoys you, Xiaolu also has to annoy you." ”

The eldest princess also knew that she had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly apologized.

Zhou Baolu naturally didn't care about her, and of course she couldn't worry about her, so she just smiled: "I didn't say anything." ”

The eldest princess said: "Remember, I often come to the palace to talk to me when I am free, don't be afraid, today's matter, I asked my brother to check, I handed the things out to my brother before, we don't have to worry." ”

Although His Royal Highness is in charge, the eldest princess said so, Zhou Baolu is not very relieved, although His Royal Highness is there, but he is only a teenager, and he has not established a prince, and there is no mother behind him, the palace is controlled by Concubine Qing, and it is difficult to say that it is difficult to investigate such a thing.

The eldest princess blindly worships her brother, but Zhou Baolu naturally has a neutral attitude.

It's just that this matter has nothing to do with her, she just glanced at it and said a word to the little county lord, and didn't tell the eldest princess in person, this is also to avoid people from suspecting their family's standing problem.

The little county lord's approach is their family's choice, and their own approach is their own family's position, at least until now, Zhou Baolu doesn't know the tendency of the Lu Daoist family.

However, when she said this, selling a favor to the eldest princess will not cause a loss, even if someone sees it, it is also the head of the little county lord.

In fact, these things have nothing to do with the daughter in the boudoir, and the interactions between them are more due to their own temperament preferences, and naturally close or distant because of the closeness of the family relationship, which can only be said to be the family's political tendency and status to affect her social circle, rather than her social circle representing the family's political tendency and status.

And this kind of thing, before the situation is clear, has never been on the surface.

Previously, Zhou Baolu was cautious and worried about the speculation of people with intentions, so he just said a word to the little princess, and the eldest princess behaved like this, Zhou Baolu thought to herself, as long as she didn't really lack her heart, it also represented a certain tendency.

Zhou Baolu had already received the overture of the eldest princess, but she couldn't answer yet, so she smiled and said: "I don't know anything, so naturally there is nothing to worry about." ”

It's really slippery.

The little county lord smiled on the side: "Yes, who knows what is going on in Lu Dao." ”

The topic stopped, and the three of them said something else, the gossip of the imperial capital, the disputes of the ladies, the new style of clothes, the new satin patterns, etc., the eldest princess grew up in the deep palace, much less than Zhou Baolu and the little princess went out, and it sounded naturally envious: "Last time, I went to my aunt's house to sit and sit, thinking of looking for an opportunity to sneak out of the house to go shopping, and as soon as I stepped out of the door, I was caught." ”

The little county lord was sympathetic: "It's the sister who followed you?" What's the name, it's not ordinary at first glance. ”

"Yes!" The eldest princess nodded: "It's called Agarwood, my brother sent it, it's amazing, I heard ......"

The eldest princess said mysteriously: "I came out of the black knight guard, I was injured on a mission, and after I got better, it was not as good as before, so I retreated, and my brother arranged to come to me, and she didn't like to talk, but when she got into a fight, several palace guards couldn't beat her!" ”

The palace guards are all the steps of the noble children, how to compare with the black cavalry guards.

"There are still women in the Black Knights?" Zhou Baolu asked curiously.

"Do you know the Black Cavalry?" The eldest princess smiled: "Then you must know that the Tao is powerful, I heard that because Commander Shen also received the post of internal defense, there is also a team of female black cavalry guards to facilitate the defense of the inner palace." ”

So that's it! The mysterious topic of the Black Knights was obviously more favored by the little girls, and they were all in high spirits.

Zhou Baolu naturally remembered the interesting and powerful black horse guard Huang Gongzi, and he didn't know where he was now, whether he had any dangerous tasks.

After a while, it was time to have a banquet, a palace maid came to invite, and the three of them got up together, just walked out of Yuquan Palace, and when they turned to the front alley, they saw a group of guards and eunuchs and palace maids walking by with a young man dressed in the prince's costume, the eldest princess's eyes lit up, and she immediately greeted loudly: "Brother!" ”

The boy stopped and turned his head to look.

The young man with his eyebrows stretched and his face like jade thought to be Xiao Hongcheng, the eldest son of the emperor.

He stood in place dignifiedly, and when he saw the eldest princess running over with her skirt, Zhou Baolu and the little county lord saluted in place.

Xiao Hongcheng whispered a few words to the eldest princess, the eldest princess's voice was relatively loud, and she vaguely heard that she seemed to be introducing Zhou Baolu, Xiao Hongcheng's eyes looked over, looked at it very measuredly, nodded, and withdrew his gaze.

And then it was gone.

The eldest princess walked back and said with a smile: "There is also a banquet in the front hall, my brother is rushing over, let's go too." ”

An inconsequential episode, Zhou Baolu only thought about it in her heart, and heard that several masters were handsome, and it was true, and then she turned around and forgot about it.

didn't notice it at all, when they left together, Xiao Hongcheng, who had already reached the corner of the road, looked back.
