After Xiao Zhe and the queen walked away, Shen Tong took Qingxi's hand and said hurriedly: "You are not afraid of heaven and earth, how can you not divide the occasion, if it wasn't for the queen's mother to break the siege just now, I don't know how to end!" ”

Qingxi was not afraid at all: "Sister Tong, don't panic, the saint won't treat me as a little girl, not to mention that I still have good things to say." ”

"You!" Shen Tong tapped her head. "Hurry up and show me, I haven't seen you for half a year, how have you changed?"

Qingxi turned around and said happily: "What changes can I have!" It's Sister Tong, why do you seem to have lost weight? ”

"Is there one?" Shen Tong immediately touched his face.

Qingxi saw that her expression was dim, and she felt that she had said the wrong thing. The East Palace is not as happy as the Shen Mansion before, and the life of the crown princess is not necessarily happier than that of the Shen family.

"Sister Tong, is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince good to you?" She couldn't help but ask.

Shen Tong lowered her head slightly, and the beads on her head touched each other, making a slight sound, as if something had fallen into the deep pool in her heart. After a while, she looked up at Ling Qingxi and nodded: "He treats me very well." ”

Qingxi smiled, she could see that Shen Tong was sincere. My feelings are also complicated, and I always thought that she would become my sister-in-law. My brother will treat her like a jewel. But now that she heard that another man was very kind to her, she was also happy in her heart.

She changed her tone and joked again: "The only thing I look forward to when I come to Baoding Mountain is to see you." But I'm afraid of disturbing the prince and the princess, and you're still worried about me. Why doesn't the crown princess have to accompany His Royal Highness the crown prince today? ”

Shen Tong's cheeks instantly turned crimson: "You are looking for me to be happy." She also seemed to be puzzled, and her tone became serious: "The prince is with the sixth emperor brother at the moment, presumably to talk about some things in the rivers and lakes, and I don't know when I will come back." I was thinking of sending someone to invite you over. But I didn't want my father and mother to come later, and when I heard me talk about it, I let Guo Duzhi go. It seems that they are more interested in you. ”

"Really?" Qingxi disagreed. "Not necessarily, didn't you leave without saying a word!"

"I didn't say a word, but it didn't necessarily leave a deep impression." Shen Tong's eyes twitched, and his smile became even stronger: "Maybe I'll give you a marriage or something?" Thinking about it, it seems that the sixth emperor brother still lacks a princess. ”

When this ordinary girl mentions marriage, she must be embarrassed to answer, but Qingxi is not embarrassed at all, and smiles unhurriedly: "Although I am a little curious about this Sixth Highness, but I can't laugh at your joke." Just now, the saint probably didn't have a good image of me, and the royal daughter-in-law had to be as gentle and frugal as you. I am not in accordance with the holy will. ”

The daughter-in-law of the emperor's family is not good, she can't even think about it.

Shen Tong chuckled and shook his head, he wanted to tease her, but she said it more calmly than herself. She knew very well that in fact, the marriage of the sixth emperor brother might not have been done by the emperor himself. Thinking of this, she sighed and said, "King Heng, it's not a good match. ”

Qingxi agrees with this conclusion, just because of his status as a prince. Since ancient times, the ruthless emperor's family, the friendship between husband and wife will involve more or less entanglement of interests, how can it be a good match? For example, Shen Tong married into the East Palace, is it just because of the prince's affection? Isn't there a consideration for the power behind the imperial power?

Naturally, she can't say this with Shen Tongming, but even if she doesn't say it, she has a personal know.

Shen Tong diverted the topic and chatted about some trivial matters of his daughter's family. The two chatted and chatted, but they didn't realize that the moonlight outside the house was getting thicker. The prince sent someone to report, saying that he had a good chat with the sixth brother, and he was afraid that he would have to stay overnight, so that the princess did not have to wait. Shen Tong was overjoyed, and immediately sent someone to inform Ling Deyan that he was staying in Qingxi for the night. As soon as the attendant went out, Qingxi felt that something was wrong.

"Sister Tong, I am happy that you and my sisters are together. But in the end, now that my identity is different and the occasion is different, it is inconvenient for me to stay. Besides, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just said that it was possible, maybe he would return later. ”

Shen Tong just got up to the moment, didn't think much about it, and now after being reminded by her, she also said that she didn't think about it, and wanted to send someone to call back the first person, but she stopped her again. "It's so late, Daddy must still be waiting for me, let him think I'm here with you, let him rest early. Besides, I'm going to go back. Sister Tong, don't send someone to send me. I never had the chance to walk alone on the mountain. You know, I'm bored, so I'll let me go back by myself? Feel the fresh mountain air, too. ”

Shen Tong understood her temperament, and really wanted to fulfill her innocuous thoughts, so she nodded. got up and sent her to the door, hesitated for a long time, and said, "How is your brother?" This sentence, she slid to her mouth several times tonight, and swallowed it back alive. And Qingxi also had a tacit understanding, and all the topics avoided that person. But she always felt that if she didn't ask this sentence, she seemed to be sorry for this meeting.

Qingxi smiled on his lips and replied softly: "Brother's personality, you know, he won't let himself be bored and lonely." He's fine, you can rest assured. She paused and said in an accentuated tone: "You and me, and him are actually like relatives. ”

"Yes, dear." Shen Tong sighed, there was too much helplessness and sadness in this sigh.

Relatives are the best connection between himself and him.

It's just a moment, and all emotions are buried behind a heavy smile.
