Wu Yuehua is indeed reflecting on herself, she was in the same situation as Zhou Baolu just now, why did she dare to speak? Why did she not succumb to the deterrence of the third princess?

Wu Yuehua realized.

Sometimes, only after being willing to jump out and look at yourself can you find out how much you are lacking than others. Just like this time in the snow, Wu Yuehua didn't know why Zhou Baolu proposed to invite her, but she knew that if she was herself, she would never have such kindness.

Zhou Baolu just turned away with Wu Yuehua's eyes, she didn't care what Wu Yuehua was thinking, she just thought of the conversation with Xiao Hongcheng before, which made her feel embarrassed.

This girl will be Xiao Hongcheng's side concubine in the future.

She didn't feel anything when she said it before, she just carefully considered the pros and cons, considered Wu Yuehua's identity and status, the person standing behind her, she seemed to be standing outside the circle, compared Wu Yuehua's conditions with other people, and calmly thought that she was a good choice.

At that time, she didn't feel embarrassed or embarrassed at all.

But at this time, she saw Wu Yuehua, a living person, standing in front of her, with a beautiful appearance, a petite figure, and a thoughtful message in her eyes......

At this time, Zhou Baolu felt a little embarrassed.

Thinking of such a thing, Zhou Baolu forgot that the third princess had just made a cruel statement.

What's more, early the next morning, Xiao Hongcheng came to the door with a swagger and wanted to take Zhou Baolu to ride a horse.

"Horseback riding? It's true? Zhou Baolu personally brought him red date tea to drink, and asked happily: "What horse?" I have never ridden a horse, and the Wu'an Hou Mansion has not been raised, I heard that they are all raised outside the house, and my uncle does not like to take his cousins to go, but Brother An'er's uncle sometimes takes them to ride horses, but he does not take me, and my aunt said that riding horses will be looped, and I will not be able to marry in the future. Alas, where can you see it in a skirt! I've heard that Uncle An'er's girls ride occasionally, and it doesn't matter if they ride a little smaller, and I envy them when they say it......"

Xiao Hongcheng answered quickly: "I will marry you with Luo Quanleg, don't worry, I have some good horses in this yard, I picked a particularly docile and sensible one, and I am on the side, not afraid." ”

"Shall I change my clothes, then?" Zhou Baolu was distressed: "I don't seem to have clothes to ride a horse...... These clothes are verbose, I'm afraid it's not very convenient, right? ”

"Well, you can find one with tighter sleeves, a skirt that is not too long, and just sit sideways." Xiao Hongcheng didn't plan to really teach her riding skills, but he just rode a horse, went to the mountains to slip around, and grinded his ears and temples with affection and sweetness, Uncle An Wang said that this method was correct.

Zhou Baolu excitedly sent the maid to find clothes to change into, and went out with Xiao Hongcheng, the guards had already led the horse and waited in the backyard, Zhou Baolu's personal guard Cherry also changed her riding clothes together, she was heroic, riding a gray horse, her posture was very calm, Zhou Baolu was envious.

Xie Qi led a not too big jujube red horse over, about not yet an adult, big eyes are very gentle, Xie Qi is a big mouth, open his mouth to show merit for the master: "This is the uncle personally picked and trained, everything is not fake, we have spent a lot of effort, look at this head, this color, just right for you." ”

Xiao Hongcheng glared at him: "Do you need to talk too much?" ”

turned around and handed a piece of candy to Zhou Baolu: "Feed her a piece, her name is Xiaoyue." Naturally, this sentence dropped by eight tones.

and taught Zhou Baolu how to feed Xiaoyue, and the guards consciously took a few steps back, ignoring incivility.

To be a guard is to have a bit of eyesight.

The warm tongue licked on his hand, which was indeed very gentle, Zhou Baolu looked excited, and his smile was like bright sunshine: "I also want to make a set of clothes like that, I want to be red, with Xiaoyue!" ”

Xiao Hongcheng nodded, and Zhou Baolu's big eyes looked over: "Then you will teach me to ride a horse again?" ”

"Okay." There must be no reason not to agree, Xiao Hongcheng thought, who can say the word 'no' to these big eyes? I will definitely agree unconditionally.

Jinshan is where the courtyard of the heavenly family is located, and it is the place where the wealthy nobles of the imperial capital have built the courtyard, the beauty of the scenery is undoubted, and it is the turn of spring and summer, the trees are luxuriant, the flowers are varied, although the horse does not run fast, but you can still see all kinds of shades of green passing by, the breeze is blowing, the fragrance of plants and flowers in the forest is coming, Zhou Baolu is very excited.

The weather is slightly hot, her sideburns are slightly sweaty, her cheeks are red, she looks extraordinarily transparent and crystalline, and her crisp voice is sprinkled in the forest, like a happy yellow bird.

Xiao Hongcheng thought: "You have to come out often to ride horses!" ”

After wandering around the forest for a long time, he didn't go back until it was almost lunchtime, seeing that she was reluctant, Xiao Hongcheng very readily promised to come again at any time!

returned to the other hospital, in order to thank Xiao Hongcheng, Zhou Baolu specially invited him to dinner.

Zhou Baolu definitely won't do it herself, but one of the four big girls around her can do it, Lily's mother is the cook of Wu'an Houfu, and Zhou Baolu wants to eat a snack in the room on weekdays, or add a dish or something, and often asks Lily to go to the kitchen to make it once.

This time, Zhou Baolu had a whim and wanted to do it herself.

A few maids were frightened, and Sakura hurried to persuade: "My ancestor, don't make a mess, you want to treat yourself, say to make it for the kitchen, but the kitchen is not to your liking, just ask Lily to go, where do you do it yourself!" That place, there was fire and oil, and it hurt it, but how could I get it? ”

Zhou Baolu didn't follow: "I'm going to have a treat, why do I have to do it myself to be sincere." ”

What she didn't say was that Xiao Hongcheng had personally trained her horse, and she should have invited her to cook a dish by herself. Besides, my aunt is also from a beautiful background, and I didn't say that I was far away from the kitchen, Brother An'er went home, and my aunt also boiled soup for him to use.

The maids had no choice but to light a fire under the porch in the yard, so that Zhou Baolu agreed to make the simplest and easiest cordyceps stewed pigeon.

The pigeon is packed up in the kitchen, the seasonings are all divided into small plates, the big tray is served, and there is no need to fly water, Zhou Baolu only needs to put the pigeon in, Cordyceps put in, most of the seasoning is put in, and then put salt after the most can.

Zhou Baolu looked at the dishes on the table happily, and the pigeon stewed cordyceps in a big blue and white thick porcelain cup in the middle was her masterpiece, she had tasted it, and it tasted good.

There was a sound of footsteps outside, and Zhou Baolu looked back, and it was not Xiao Hongcheng who came in, but Zhou Anming.

The maid in the yard was busy squatting down to call uncle, Zhou Baolu walked out and said with a smile: "Why is the big brother here, this time His Royal Highness came out, didn't he arrange your class?" ”

Zhou Anming said: "The emperor has an urgent letter, His Royal Highness will return to the imperial capital tonight, and I will go to Jinshan to protect His Highness." ”

"What's wrong?" Zhou Baolu hurriedly asked.

"It's none of your business." Zhou Anming didn't plan to say more: "Grandmother sent someone to send you something, because I want to come over, so I will send it over, grandmother said, you are outside, you have to be careful in everything, keep yourself a little more careful, don't be as stupid as usual." ”

Zhou Baolu wrinkled her nose, she always felt that Zhou Anming's last sentence was added by herself, so it was not said by her grandmother.

Zhou Anming sent someone to bring things in, and sat down by himself: "Do you know that I am coming, I have prepared so many things, hey, our own brothers and sisters, are you so polite?" One or three things are enough, I have to go back to the imperial capital with His Royal Highness after eating, hey, this soup is good, bring a bowl. ”

Zhou Baolu stared dryly on the side, isn't there a sister who doesn't cheat when he is a brother?

From the imperial capital to Jinshan, it takes more than an hour to ride a horse, Zhou Anming is really hungry, and he eats fast, Zhou Baolu thought silently, since her brother went to work as a guard, he ate much faster than before......

Zhou Anming finished eating a bowl of rice and handed it to the maid to serve the rice, when Xiao Hongcheng stepped into the door.

Zhou Anming heard the voice and quickly stood up, Xiao Hongcheng glanced at the table, then glanced at Zhou Anming, and then looked at Zhou Baolu's helpless bitter appearance, and when he saw most of it, he understood most of it in his heart, and he was very unhappy.

Even if it's an uncle, he didn't rush to intervene like this!

How did His Highness find it? I can't wait so much, why didn't I send someone to talk to me?

Zhou Anming saw that His Royal Highness's face was getting darker and darker, and the atmosphere in the room was very weird, so he turned back to look at Zhou Baolu, then turned his head to look at His Highness, and then looked back at Zhou Baolu, his eyes became more and more suspicious, and his expression became strange.

No way......

Is it true?

Really......

When I came out, my grandmother's sentence was quite meaningful: "Good life protects your sister......

Zhou Anming shuddered, and suddenly his hairs stood up, could it be ...... Could it be that His Highness bullied his sister? In the wilderness, lonely men and widows...... No, the talented woman is good-looking...... The thunder stirred the earth and the fire......

The dramas and scripts that Zhou Anming has watched have been squeezed into his mind, spending money before and after the moon, and privately committing to life or something, but how can my sister be so smart and sensible?

Could it be that His Highness forced it?

My sister is delicate and forced by power, so she doesn't dare to resist......

Zhou Anming's brain was almost fainting, and here Zhou Baolu had already scooped a bowl of soup and handed it to Xiao Hongcheng: "I made this, you can take a sip, that's it." ”

Xiao Hongcheng is really not a good-tempered person, except for facing Zhou Baolu, at this time, seeing Zhou Anming's suspicion that he was almost writing the words bullying men and women on his face, he was immediately unhappy, and put the empty bowl on the table with a 'bell' sound, and put his hands behind his back: "Zhou Anming!" ”

"The subordinates are here!" Zhou Anming was also taken aback, and hurriedly stood up respectfully and bowed his head.

Zhou Baolu looked left and right, and quietly retreated into the inner room.

Xiao Hongcheng said: "I know the matter, you go back, Qi Father, I went to the mountains to hunt today, I fell my leg, I couldn't move for a while, I couldn't go back, when I got better, I will go back to the imperial capital." ”

Yes? Zhou Anming aimed at Xiao Hongcheng's legs, and Xiao Hongcheng took two steps: "What?" ”

"Yes!"

Xiao Hongcheng asked again: "Is the third master in the imperial capital?" ”

Zhou Anming said: "The third master was preparing to go to the Jinshan camp, but the emperor kept the third master. ”

Xiao Hongcheng groaned for a while: "You go back and tell the third master, if your father is interested, he can go to Fujian, if your father doesn't mention it, he won't mention it." ”

Zhou Anming bowed and answered, waited for a while, and saw that Xiao Hongcheng had nothing else to say, but he didn't quit, but just glanced inside, meaning: My sister is here, I talk to my sister normally, don't you leave?

Xiao Hongcheng felt more and more uncomfortable: "Is there anything else?" ”

The uncle wanted to pretend to be stupid, but Zhou Anming really had no choice but to bow down and retire.

But what's going on? Zhou Anming was full of doubts, his sister wouldn't really have anything with his uncle......

Xiao Hongcheng saw that Zhou Anming was gone, so he snorted and walked inside, Zhou Baolu said: "I don't know that Brother Lu Dao is coming, it's not good to tell him that this is for you, don't blame him, you didn't eat well, I asked someone else to do it." ”

Xiao Hongcheng nodded: "The soup is stewed very well." ”

Zhou Baolu smiled, her big eyes were crooked, she walked to the door and called the maid to command, and then asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Xiao Hongcheng hesitated for a moment, but still said: "The Supervision Department has a secret twist and turn, three years ago, the Hou Shizi of Zhenyuan suppressed bandits in Fujian, killed the villagers of Xiaoyu Village and thought that the bandit leader was taking the lead, and a girl escaped, begging all the way into Beijing to sue the royal court, and was taken over by the Supervision Department. ”

"What happened three years ago, is it only now in Beijing? Marquis of Zhenyuan ......" Zhou Baolu thought for a while, and then said a little uncertainly: "Mrs. Marquis of Zhenyuan seems to be surnamed Liang?" ”

Xiao Hongcheng nodded approvingly: "Yes, Concubine Qing's sister-in-law." ”

Zhou Baolu felt that something was wrong: "What happened three years ago, why did it only happen now?" It just so happens that you're not in the imperial capital? The Supervision Department is controlled by Prince Cheng, this is a deliberate pick, right? ”

Xiao Hongcheng was going to take her hand again: "So smart!" ”

Zhou Baolu glared at him!

Xiao Hongcheng muttered: "When will my father be willing to give marriage, I'm in a hurry!" ”

As he was talking, a maid ran in outside, and she didn't dare to enter the door, so she said outside: "Miss, the female official of the third princess beat Sister Lily, and the third princess said that Sister Lily dared to disobey her master and wanted to kill her......"

Zhou Baolu hurriedly walked out, and the maid was sweating in a hurry: "Miss, Miss, go and take a look, don't be really ......"

Zhou Baolu turned around and explained to Xiao Hongcheng: "Lily makes a good dish, I'll send her to the kitchen to make a few more dishes for you......"

Xiao Hongcheng obviously knows that beating a dog depends on the owner, beating Zhou Baolu's maid is to beat Zhou Baolu, and then to beat him, especially this maid still cooks for herself.

He stood up and walked out, calling someone to come, the guards outside suddenly agreed, and Zhou Baolu hurriedly grabbed him: "What do you look like about this maid, you sit here, I'll take a look." ”

That's right, Xiao Hongcheng also sat down, followed by cherries horizontally and vertically, and Zhou Baolu couldn't suffer a loss.

The kitchen was not far away, Zhou Baolu hurried slowly, and heard a scolding voice from a distance: "You dare to be stubborn!" How many people are in your yard? Just take up all the fires in this kitchen, dare to love your master to eat, everyone else is a bodhisattva, can't you eat the fireworks in the world? If you still refuse, what's wrong with lifting your pot? Dare to ask me to be reasonable, now I will put my words here, I will not be reasonable, in the future, I will come to this kitchen, see you once you lift, I will see how you can be! ”

Zhou Baolu walked to the door of the courtyard of the kitchen, and saw a palace maid with shaved shoulders and bee waist, wearing a green coat and a red sweat towel tied around her waist, pointing at Lily and scolding, Lily knelt on the ground, a pot in the yard was obviously thrown out, and the soup and meat dishes were splashed on the ground, and Lily's body was also splashed with half of her body, a slap print on the left side of her face, and tears on her face.

The third princess sat under the tree by the door, obviously a large circle chair specially brought here, just watched for a while, her eyes caught a glimpse of Zhou Baolu coming over, smiled coldly, raised her hand, the palace maid stopped, stood with her hands down, the third princess said: "Who remembers?" Take the leather gloves and beat her mouth to pieces, and remember it from now on. ”

That's too ruthless, isn't it?

Zhou Baolu sighed, just listening to the palace maid's scolding, she knew that it was obviously them who found fault, saying that the lily had been on fire for a long time, so she lifted her pot, and the lily would naturally complain a few words, and the palace maid directly got started, and the third princess came forward to slap her mouth, the woman's face is the root of life, even if she hits the board, she doesn't have to hit the face, especially the upper skin gloves, not much, if you hit it ten times, your face will be rotten, that is, it will be raised, and the cheeks are also purple scabs, and it will never get better.

Lily trembled with fright, and when she saw Zhou Baolu coming, she cried and said: "Miss, I just used a fire, there are more than a dozen fires in this kitchen, all of them are empty, this sister said that I occupied the fire, and threw the pot on me, I hid out, saying that there are still so many fires available, this sister said that I was stubborn, Miss, I really didn't have it." ”

The palace maid sneered: "What a clever mouth, when your master comes, you have the courage, don't you?" The third princess is still here! In front of the princess, I would like to ask Miss Zhou, how many people are in your yard and how many meals do you have to eat a day? It's been coming and going in this kitchen for an hour or two, what kind of pomp is this? Our princess still has to cling to Miss Zhou's yard first? ”

Zhou Baolu naturally didn't want to quarrel with a maid, but only asked the third princess in a slow voice: "What does the princess mean, my girl can't use the kitchen?" Or is it that as long as the princess's people want to use the kitchen, there is a place to be idle and no one else can use it? ”

The third princess waited for her to speak, and raised her eyebrows: "Bold!" ”

Instant seizure!

The majesty of the princess is different from others, although the third princess is only fourteen years old, this appearance is actually a bit majestic, Zhou Baolu was stunned, thinking of her mother Concubine Qing.

That day in the palace, Concubine Qing had a frosty face, standing quietly and looking at it, which was really similar to the third princess.

About the third princess also imitated her mother everywhere...... Thinking about it this way, the third princess is the daughter of Concubine Qing, raised by herself, and gets along day and night, then, Concubine Qing's actions will have a profound impact on the third princess, and the character, actions and means of the third princess should have the way of Concubine Qing everywhere?

Zhou Baolu's heart suddenly moved.
