Mo Ziyu opened the wardrobe, took out a new dress, came to Liu Xu's side, and said with a smile: "This is made by the concubine herself, and I don't know if it fits, I hope the prince will not dislike it! ”

Liu Xu raised his eyes and looked at Mo Ziyu's eyes, slightly distracted, and then smiled: "You and I are husband and wife, and it seems that we should support each other, how can we repay it?"

He got up and straightened his hands: "This king tried, is it appropriate?"

Mo Ziyu put on the clothes for Liu Xu, tried them briefly, and said with a shallow smile while sorting out the clothes: "It's just right!"

Liu Xu raised his hand and wrapped his arms around Mo Ziyu's waist, hugged her in his arms, and said: "In the future, this kind of time-consuming and eye-consuming thing will be left to the next person to do, your hands are used to make articles and play the piano! If you are tired, this king will also feel distressed!"

"But this is also the concubine's intention, and it doesn't take much effort to say it, as long as people don't misunderstand that this dress is for wild men!" Mo Ziyu said casually, "Does the prince still like it?"

"You did it yourself, why don't you like it? The king of Ming Japan dressed in a swagger and asked everyone to come and see the craftsmanship of this king's concubine!" Liu Xu smiled loudly, and then his smile faded, as if he was a little thoughtful.

At this time, Bai Ling entered the room to serve tea: "Lord Wang, please drink tea." ”

Liu Xu took the teacup, and because Bailing's fingers were white and delicate, and the bones were even and slender, he couldn't help but take a look at it: "You are a little familiar, aren't you from the third lady's courtyard?"

Bai Ling smiled shyly, his white and tender skin flushed, and he lowered his eyes and said: "The prince has a good memory, the slave maid is indeed a person from the third lady's courtyard, but the third lady has already let the slave and maid come to Qiushui Garden to serve, and she has been here for some days, but she has never served in front of the prince, so the prince has not noticed." ”

"I see, since you have come to Qiushui Garden, you are waiting for your life. Liu Xu said, "I've heard the third lady mention you before, you have a good voice!"

He turned his head to look at Mo Ziyu again, and said with a smile: "Such a smart and clever person is willing to give it to you, and the third lady is also very good to you." ”

"yes. Mo Ziyu said with a smile, "The third lady has always treated her concubine very well. ”

Liu Xu saw a pair of jade bracelets on Bai Ling's wrist again, and said, "This jade bracelet was given to you by Mrs. Qi?" This king remembers that Lord Qi borrowed two hundred taels of silver from this king to buy this jade bracelet in order to please his wife, and she turned her head and gave it to you again. ”

"As the saying goes, the sword is given to the hero, no matter how good the object is, only the right person will play the greatest role, Bailing's skin is as white as snow, and this jade bracelet is the most her skin color. Mo Ziyu smiled faintly, "Does the prince also think it looks good?"

"The two-wristed jade is picked off, and the slim is half a handful. Liu Xu recited a poem and praised, "You still have vision! Rest early in the evening, and this king will go to see the princess." ”

"Yes, my lord. ”

After Liu Xu left, Mo Ziyu let Lu Qiao into the room to wait, plucking the strings, and asked, "Aren't you serving tea on weekdays?"

"I don't know why Bailing is so active today, I'm still making tea, she has already brewed it, I think that since she has brewed it, I won't care anymore. "But what trouble did she make?"

"No, she is smart and cute, and she is very loved by the prince. Mo Ziyu said lightly.

"Could it be that she has any crooked thoughts?" Lu Qiao wondered, "I was silent a few days ago, but now I really show the fox's tail, I'll go and warn her now!"

"Come back. Mo Ziyu said lightly, "Two days ago, I praised you for being smart, but now you are confused again, don't startle the snake! In the future, whenever the prince is in Qiushui Garden, let her wait." ”

"Girl, aren't you afraid?"

"I can't run away, what's there to be afraid of?" Mo Ziyu smiled lightly, "Just do what I say." ”

"Oh well. ”

Liu Xu went to Tongzhi Courtyard to say a few words to the princess and had dinner together, but instead of spending the night with her, he went to the second lady again.

The second lady knew that after Liu Xu came back, she first met the third lady, and then went to Qiushui Garden, and had dinner with the princess, but she only came to see her at this time, and she was quite angry, plus Liu Xu hadn't come to her for a long time, this temper came up, and she couldn't help sneering: "What kind of wind blew the prince over?"

At night, the candle in the house was still lit, and the second lady was still looking at the account book, Liu Xu saw this, and asked gently, "It's so late, and you still haven't rested?"

"There are some problems with the accounts of several manors, and the concubines must be checked clearly. The second lady closed the account book and looked resentful, "The prince is about to become a rare guest here, why do you think of the concubine today?"

"You blame this king for snubbing you?" Liu Xu smiled slightly, walked over and gently held the second lady in his arms, "This king knows that you are hard, and you are still busy after so long, this king is grateful, but there are many things today, and I can't leave, I hope that the concubine can take on more responsibilities." ”

The second lady's face was a little pale, and her face also showed a smile: "The concubine is not hard, and the concubine does not want the gratitude of the prince, the concubine is the woman of the prince, and she should share the worries of the prince! This trip, is it still smooth? The person you want to find can be found?"

"In general, there is no chaos, this time I was able to find that person smoothly, your brother has contributed a lot, if he hadn't set up a net early, I'm afraid it would not be easy to catch that person. Liu Xu said, "Your brother is a person with great ambitions, and he is a rare talent!"

Hearing her brother being praised, the smile on the second lady's face became even greater: "The prince praises falsely, my brother is still far away! The father of the former son said that his brother was going back to Beijing to report on his work, and his mother missed his brother all the year round, and if he finally reunited with the family, it would be a happy thing." ”

"Your brother is impeccable in terms of talent and political achievements, and it is understandable to return to Beijing to report on his work. Liu Xu paused, "In the days when this king is away, nothing has happened in the palace, right?"

The smile on the corner of the second lady's mouth stiffened: "What does the prince want to ask?"

She raised her eyebrows, sneered slightly, and said: "After the prince came back, he met the third lady, the seventh lady and the princess, what happened, they must have told you one by one, why did the prince come to ask the concubine?

"Xingshi asks for guilt?" Liu Xu's face remained unchanged, but he still smiled faintly, "Concubine Ai's words are too exaggerated, just because I listened to their words, I should listen to your words even more, so that I will not listen to biased beliefs!"
