It was night, and the shoulder came as scheduled and stopped outside the Jingsi Residence, and after picking up the freshening up, Ling Ruo went to the Kaiyun Moon Pavilion, and as soon as he entered, he saw Yin Zhen holding a book and sitting in a chair to read carefully, and put a large plate of cut melons on the table in front of him, and took ice at the bottom.

Seeing her come in, Yin Zhen smiled slightly, put down the scroll and beckoned: "Come and taste it, this is a freshly paid tribute melon from the Western Regions, crisp and sweet, I specially left one for you." ”

There are not a few in this melon mansion, only a few Fujin and Ye's family were rewarded, not even Shu Fujin, I never thought that Yinzhen actually left one for her, and a burst of warmth surged in her heart, she took the silver skewer handed by Yinzhen and signed a piece in her mouth and bit it lightly, and immediately the juice overflowed, which was a little sweeter than the melon sent by the Li family.

"Is it delicious?" Yin Zhen asked, looking forward to it.

Ling Ruo swallowed the honeydew melon in his mouth and said softly, "It's so sweet, sweeter than any fruit that the concubine has eaten before." ”

"If you like it, eat more, but unfortunately this melon can't be left for a long time after it is cut, otherwise you can save half a day and eat it again." Yin Zhen pulled Ling Ruo to sit on his lap, and said with a little regret.

"The fourth master has a concubine body in his heart, and the concubine body is more important than anything else." Plain hands climbed on his warm neck and chuckled, "The concubine is destined to accompany the fourth master for the rest of her life, so you don't need to fight for the day, right?" ”

"What do you want to say?" Yin Zhen asked as she stroked her waist-length hair, her eyes gradually cooling in silence.

Ling Ruo's heart trembled, and he got up from his lap and bowed down and said: "The concubine body is just a humble body, and being able to get the mercy of the fourth master is already a blessing that I don't know how many lives and generations I have cultivated, and I really can't afford more favor from the fourth master." ”

What kind of person is Yin Zhen, how can she not hear the meaning of her words, the corners of her eyebrows are raised, revealing a fierce look, "Your so-called favor, but does it mean that I left you to spend the night in the Kaiyun Moon Pavilion?" Seeing that Ling Ruo didn't answer, he became more and more sure of his conjecture, "Say, who is making it difficult for you?" ”

Ling Ruo shook his head slightly, "No." It's because the concubine herself doesn't want to break the rules of the house again and again, not to mention that if this matter spreads, it will be heard by people who don't know that the fourth master is too fond of the concubine, and even ignores the rules, which is in the way of the fourth master. ”

"So, I should thank you?" Yinzhen's voice carried a hint of mockery and boredom.

It turns out that she is nothing more than that...... Mingzhe protects himself, heh, people are like this, he thinks too much, there is only one Meier in the world, how can he ask for a second one.

He doesn't have the blessing of Yin'er, and he can get Mei'er's love with all her heart and desperation......

Every woman who lingers around her first thinks of herself and the family behind her, but she doesn't think of him, Ling Ruo, who once thought it would be different, is also like this......

The loss between Yinzhen's words made her heart twitch fiercely, and she suddenly realized that she had made a stupid mistake.

She has always deduced Yinzhen with common sense, but she has forgotten the most important point: Yinzhen is a prince, a prince who has grown up in deceit and intrigue since he was a child, and he has never seen any means and schemes, I am afraid that he has already seen through what he thinks and thinks. With Yinzhen's mean and suspicious temperament, he can't tolerate a grain of sand, and he will inevitably feel that he is hypocritical.

Just as she was nervously thinking about how to make up for this mistake, Yin Zhen had already gotten up and walked to her side, so indifferent that Ling Ruo's voice was as frightened as the clouds falling in the sky, unpredictable, "Get up, as you wish." ”

Yin Zhen waited for a long time, but never saw Ling Ruo get up, and looked down one by one, only to see her hanging her head, and drop by drop of transparent liquid continued to drip on the back of her tightly curled hand.

Beauty tears are often the most touching to people's hearts, even if Yinzhen is cold by nature and dissatisfied with Ling Ruo, she can't help but be slightly moved, raising her tear-stained face and speaking in a slightly slower tone, "What are you crying about, haven't I already allowed you?" ”

"That's why I want to cry." She looked up at Yinzhen, and there was a touching beauty when tears slipped down her beautiful and delicate face, "The fourth master trusts the concubine so much, but the concubine has the fourth master, and the concubine is really damned." ”

This answer stunned Yinzhen, and blurted out, "What do you owe me?" ”。

Ling Ruo smiled sadly, held his thick big hand and said with tears: "The concubine body is unwilling to stay in the Broken Cloud Open Moon Pavilion for the night, although there are reasons mentioned before, but the most important thing is that the concubine body is afraid, afraid that such a grand favor will invite jealousy. The so-called collection of favors in one body is also a collection of grievances, the fourth master asked, but someone is embarrassed by the concubine, if the concubine body does not know how to advance and retreat again, does the fourth master think that there will be a place for the concubine in this house? ”

"With me, no one can touch you!" Outside, it was raining at some point, rustling on the leaves, making his voice sound a little indistinct.

Ling Ruo smiled self-deprecatingly, his long hair was like practicing gracefully in the obscurantist candlelight, "The fourth master can protect the concubine for a while, but he can't protect the concubine for a lifetime, not to mention that only when the palace is peaceful, the fourth master can rest assured about the affairs of the court and share the worries of the emperor; Seek the well-being of the people of the world. ”

Take retreat as advance and treat each other with sincerity. Bet on whether Yinzhen is willing to believe her again.

The wind, coming from nowhere, blew the soft tent of the shark yarn as thin as nothing into the air and fell quietly, blowing past the two people who were silently facing each other.

For a long time, the rough palm with clear lines was close to Ling Ruo's cheek, and in the warmth that struck, Ling Ruo heard the words that made her extremely reassuring, "Don't hide anything from me in the future." ”

"Never." A smile bloomed silently on her lips, and she knew that he had forgiven her.

This night, Yinzhen really didn't stay with Ling Ruo for the night, and before the third watch, he ordered Zhou Yong to send her back to Jingsiju.

In the days that followed, Yinzhen summoned Ling Ruo less and less often, and it was often only once in seven or eight days, and there was no overnight stay, which made the girls who were originally jealous of Ling Ruo secretly happy in their hearts, thinking that Yinzhen had spoiled her before just to be fresh, not really liking, and the freshness was naturally average.

The four seasons are reincarnated, summer is gone and autumn is solstice, in a blink of an eye it is the time when the osmanthus is fragrant in August, the lotus flowers in the Pujia pond are gradually defeated, Yinzhen seems to be unwilling to see the scene of the lotus withering and ruined, it is because he has never come to the Pujia Pond since the autumn, but he ordered Gao Fu to clean it up and wait for the next year.

Gao Fu cleaned up the residual lotus and silt according to Yinzhen's words, and specially invited the lotus root digger to dig out the lotus root hidden in the silt, and after the pond water was restored to clear and transparent, hundreds of golden-red koi were put in the water, and they could be seen from time to time when walking on the shore.

As for the lotus root dug up, it was washed and distributed to each courtyard, and Jing Siju also got a copy, and it was still the best and freshest. Everyone else thought that Yinzhen had lost interest in Ling Ruo, but a few henchmen such as Gao Fu knew that Yinzhen often went to Jingsiju alone after finishing his political work, and did not leave until dawn.

This is not only the protection of Ling Ruo, but also the accommodation of her, accommodating a woman with the respect of a prince, and it is still Yinzhen's arrogant and mean temperament, which is a hundred times more difficult than the superficial honor.

A woman who can be treated like this by Yinzhen, Gao Fu does not dare to be contemptuous even if he eats the bear's heart and leopard gall.
