When Wei Huang saw Xiu Gu say this, Fang knew that he had said the wrong thing, and he had made some mistakes.

Yes, this time it was not Xiu Gu's own will to stay, but she managed to keep her behind, if she didn't do this, let her be outside, but it would cause an unexpected disaster.

Thinking of this, Wei Huang sighed and said to Xiugu: "Wei Xiu, I am your eldest brother, and it is naturally for your good to leave you." ”

Xiugu's heart shook, this was the first time she had heard the word "eldest brother" in her life.

She has been an orphan since she was a child, although she has been taken care of by her brother and master, so she will not be lonely, but sometimes she will think about who her parents are and whether she has brothers and sisters.

Now when I heard these two words, my heart was like thunder and lightning, and a hole opened in my heart, and a liquid that I don't know what it tasted like flowed out, all the way from my heart to my eyes, and turned into tears that slipped down my face.

Wei Huang saw Xiu Gu crying, and immediately panicked, he grew up in Beizong Temple, and he had never had much experience in how to face girls' emotions.

If it was the maid and the others, it would be okay, but the one in front of him was obviously his only sister, although she was a half-brother, but in the end, she was connected by blood, and she didn't know what to do for a while.

At this time, Liu Yi saw this and said: "Princess Xiu, don't cry, if you are a wronged subordinate and knocks you out and snatches you back, even if you lose your temper with me, your subordinates can withstand it."

It's just that the prince grew up in the temple since he was a child, and when he returned to the palace of Emperor Dawu, he was also the prince's brother, and the first time he faced his own sister, there were also people who said the wrong thing in a panic.

"It's just that you remember one thing, when you return to the prince's mansion, you will be considered home, there is the prince and his subordinates, and you will not be wronged in the future. ”

When Xiu Gu heard these words, her heart warmed, and her tears couldn't be stopped.

Even in Qingshan Temple, Yuan Yin and Fire Monkey Shuli and their senior brothers all said the same thing, but growing up beside them since childhood, they were used to it, and now when they heard the words of two people who were not yet familiar with her, how could they not move her.

Wei Huang looked flustered, walked to the door and shouted outside: "Quick, let the kitchen make the best food and bring it over!"

Wei Huang returned and said to Aunt Xiu with a smile: "Sister Xiu, you have been wronged all these years, during this time, the maidservants have said that you have not eaten anything except decoction, and now you are better, even if you eat, your brother's prince's mansion is not poor!"

Xiugu's stomach really sounded faintly, her face suddenly became more red, and Liu Yi's eyes were even more busy, just staring at her.

Xiu Gu said angrily: "What have you been staring at me, and the prince, you don't have to be the eldest brother all the time, the younger sister is short, I am not from here, wait a little better, I still have to find the senior brother and them!"

Liu Yi's face also turned red, and he looked at Wei Huang helplessly, Wei Huang kicked him, and said to Xiu Gu with a smile: "Sister Xiu, I know your hard work outside all these years. But since you are a royal princess, you naturally have to enjoy royal treatment. You can rest assured that you are here, and it will be regarded as compensation to you from the Dawu Imperial Family, or the eldest brother and me. ”

When Xiu Gu heard this, she rolled up her sleeves, stroked her silky clothes, lowered her head and said softly: "At that time, the prince was probably still a lay disciple in Beizong Temple, so what can you compensate me for."

"I don't need any compensation, my so-called 'uncle' abandoned me for fear of ruining the reputation of the Taiqing family. I feel uncomfortable, but I can understand it.

"It's just that I haven't been able to figure out why my parents have been so ruthless and haven't come to me for so many years?"

When Wei Huang heard this, he glanced at Liu Yi, Liu Yi knew what he meant, and hurriedly walked out, closed the door, and stationed at the door.

Wei Huang glanced at the door, turned his head, his expression became serious, and said in a deep voice: "Sister Xiu, this matter is too complicated to say, and both my father and Concubine Yan have unavoidable hardships. I can't quite guess either.

"Don't worry too much about this matter, after so many years, you have finally returned to your eldest brother, and there is no reason to be wronged again. ”

He pondered for a moment, and then said: "It's just that Xiumei, the royal rules are strict, since my father and Concubine Yan have not expressed their position for so many years, it is not appropriate to let them know now, otherwise it will be easy to violate their taboos, and it will be bad."

"You live here temporarily, this was originally the place where my father arranged to give me the crown princess, and all the food and clothing are excellent.

"Whatever you need, food and play, as long as the world has it, the eldest brother will try to get it for you. Everything will wait until I find out my father's intentions, Xiumei, do you think this can be done?"

Xiu Gu's face was uncertain, sad and helpless, she lowered her head and thought for a while, and said lightly: "Prince, thank you for being able to contain me." What is going on outside, I don't know now, I won't go out for the time being.

"But I beg you for one thing, you must find someone to tell me about the situation of my brothers and sisters every day, whether there is or not, they are all my closest people, I have to worry about them, and dare to ask the prince to agree. ”

Wei Huang was a little depressed when she heard this, she still thought about those who had no blood with her, but he didn't express it, nodded and said to Xiu Gu: "Then you can rest here for the time being." The girl who served you is called Xiaolan, after I returned to Junzhou City, I lived in the East Palace of Emperor Dawu's Palace, and she was originally the palace maid there.

"Because I'm used to living in Hokjongji Temple, I'm not used to her serving me. Later, my father allowed me to build a mansion alone, and she insisted on coming out with me, so he took her out and put her in this courtyard. If there is anything you need to tell her, if you are not good at serving, tell me, I will come to see you every day. ”

Xiu Gu nodded slightly, wiped the tears from her face, and stopped talking.

Wei Huang was about to go out, when he suddenly remembered something, turned around and took out something from his cuff.

Xiu Gu looked at it, it was a string of crimson prayer beads, each crimson bead was covered with countless fine gold dots, and the whole body exuded a mysterious fragrance that was calming and pleasant.

Wei Huang said slowly: "Sister Xiu, this string of deep-sea agate rosaries has a good origin, it is a fisherman in Jiangzhou in the southeast of Dawu Kingdom, and it was found that there was a golden light on the endless East China Sea, and the Buddha's name was booming, and it was suspected that the Buddha had descended to earth, so the Jiangzhou governor sent cultivators to find it."

"Unexpectedly, I found that on the sea, a huge colorful lotus flower with a radius of ten zhang bloomed, and the lotus canopy above the lotus flower was shining with golden light.

"People went to pick it, and found that the lotus pod was exactly eighteen holes, and when they dug it out, they saw that each one was round and jade, solemn and exquisite.

So the state officials did not dare to enjoy it exclusively, and presented it to the emperor, who ordered the imperial craftsman to skillfully chisel it, so that this peculiar fragrance rosary was formed, and it was honored to the queen mother who worshiped the Buddha sincerely.

"The Queen Mother only favored me who practiced Buddhism in Beizong Temple, so she gave it to me. This must be extraordinary, the eldest brother is seeing you officially for the first time, there is nothing else to give you a greeting gift, you must accept this string of prayer beads.

"In addition to being delicate and beautiful, it also has the effect of concentrating and calming the mind, which is of great benefit to cultivators, so be sure not to refuse the intention of being a brother. ”

Xiu Gu was a little embarrassed and was about to shirk it, when Liu Yi outside the door said, "Prince, the meal has arrived." ”

Wei Huang put down the rosary to the table, turned around and walked over to open the door, walked out, and stood with Liu Yi at the foot of the steps of the house.

They watched as the servants streamed in, and it took a long time for the meal to be arranged. Xiaolan immediately led the two maids to serve, but Wei Huang did not go in.

I only heard Xiu Gu complaining inside: "Prince, I can't eat so much by myself, and I will tell people not to do so much in the future, it's a waste, you don't know, how many people are starving outside!"

Xiaolan hurriedly said: "Miss, if you have anything to say to the slave maid, the slave maid will report to the prince, if you are like this, I am afraid that the prince will blame the slave maid." ”

After saying this, there was no sound inside, only the movement of cups and bowls was heard. Wei Huang nodded at Liu Yi, and the two walked towards the gate of the courtyard.

Along the way, there were guards from the Prince's Mansion who stood in all corners of the courtyard and corridors, and Liu Yi asked Wei Huang in front of him as he walked, "Prince, do you have any plans for me to leave her behind?"

Wei Huang smiled bitterly: "What plan can I have, I panicked when I saw her at that time." No matter what, she is also my sister, and she must not be allowed to go to the end of the world with those people in Nanzong Temple. ”

Liu Yi said: "Then how long will you hide her like this?"

Wei Huang shook his head and said in a deep voice: "I will find out what my father means as soon as possible, and then make plans." During this period of time, you are personally responsible for guarding and arranging manpower, and you must not let her go out. ”

He sighed: "My father hasn't looked for her for more than ten years, I'm afraid there is a lot of meaning in it." ”
