Qingxi took advantage of his father's greetings with his colleagues, and quietly avoided the crowd and exited the main hall. In order to obey her father's orders, she ran where there were few people, so she avoided and retreated behind a rockery next to the temple.

She looked around and felt that this place was really an excellent place to hide from people's eyes and ears, so she also found a smooth stone and sat down, looking at the ministers talking in twos and threes between the corridors of the palace in front of her, and began to think about it.

The first thing that made her worry about this was the emperor's words before entering the main hall. She felt that Xiao Yizheng must know about King Guang's affairs, and she didn't need to remind her, not to mention that the two had already said that what happened last night had nothing to do with her, and she could stay out of it. But the emperor's question obviously made her unable to stay out of the matter, should she tell Xiao Yizheng?

When he was hesitating, as far as his eyes could see, Prince Yu and Prince Naguang were walking towards him, and he was really afraid of something. It was too late for her to turn around and change places at this moment, so she could only get up and take two steps forward generously, ready to salute and greet her.

The two princes walked over with a smile and a smile, and they seemed surprised to see her.

"Isn't this Ling Shilang's beloved daughter? What kind of person came out? "Prince Yu has a kind and amiable face.

Qingxi saluted and said: "The courtiers have been nervous and uneasy when they saw such a scene for the first time, so they came out to breathe."

"This king, look, you are very clever." King Yu looks like an old god.

"The prince is in love." Qingxi lowered his head slightly, looked at his nose and nose, and reminded himself not to care about King Guang who had not yet spoken.

However, King Guang spoke at this time: "This time, the royal brother rewarded Ling Shilang for bringing his family to Baoding Mountain, presumably Ling Shilang was in the limelight in that hall for a while. ”

Qingxi heard that what was revealed in his words was disdain and even undisguised dissatisfaction, remembering the gloomy conversation last night, she frowned lightly, and replied thoughtfully: "My father is ordered to do errands, and he doesn't dare to be greedy for merit, and he is also ashamed to receive the favor of the saint."

"What Lord Yu said is right, you are a clever one." King Guang looked at her with his hands behind his back and squinted slightly. "You're done, aren't you?"

"Yes."

"Have you ever promised someone?"

Although this dynasty is relatively civilized in terms of male and female defense, there are not so many rules. But this question still made Qingxi unexpectedly stunned for a moment, and then replied: "No."

Prince Yu on the side also felt that it was always inappropriate for King Guang to ask the girl's family this question so directly, and he was surprised to hear her say no. This girl is so outstanding in terms of appearance and talent, the threshold of the family should have been broken by the suitor. Thinking about today's events again, he raised his eyebrows, laughed and said warmly: "Maybe it's soon."

Qingxi's ears were still slightly red when she heard this, but she didn't know how to reply. While he was hesitating, he heard another voice in his ear: "The two imperial uncles let the nephew be easy to find." ”

When Qingxi heard this voice, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Xiao Yizheng walked and saluted again: "The front hall is about to have a banquet, and my father invited the two imperial uncles to go back to the back hall to accompany him."

King Guang looked at Qingxi again with a solemn expression and nodded. King Yu looked at Xiao Yizheng with a smile, then looked at Qingxi, and said, "Your ninth uncle and I were still talking about hunger just now." Let's go back first. As he spoke, he pulled King Guang to turn around and walk back.

Seeing this, Qingxi blessed his body and said, "Congratulations to the prince."

After getting up, she saw that Xiao Yizheng did not follow them, but stood there and looked at herself. She thought that there was a good opportunity, so she looked around vigilantly, and saw that there was no one else except the two princes who were gradually walking away, so she took two steps forward and whispered: "Your Highness, does Your Majesty know about last night's incident?"

Xiao Yizheng was a little surprised to see her leaning over like this. At the top of the main hall, he knew that she would definitely be able to hear the voice of King Guang. Just in front of the window on the second floor of the apse, he watched her carefully avoid the rockery all the way, and watched the two uncles walk towards her.

At this time, she was so close, he could see that her earlobes were red, the crystal clear skin was delicate red, and the jade earrings revealed a dazzling light in the spring sun, which made him shake his mind.

"Your Majesty let me listen to last night's voice when you enter the main hall!" Qingxi's voice was visibly anxious.

Xiao Yizheng saw that her face was also slightly red, her eyes kept blinking, the corners of her mouth bent slightly unconsciously, and she cleared her throat and said, "You don't have to worry."

Qingxi looked at him so lightly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and dissatisfaction rose in his heart. He has been suffering for a long time, but it turns out that in his heart, a nobleman, he can be full of care. She pouted in her mouth, shook the handkerchief in her hand, and exhaled softly.

Xiao Yizheng saw that she was slightly angry, so he accentuated his tone again: "Miss Ling, you and I never met last night, I'm afraid you haven't forgotten this, right?"

Qingxi really wanted to give him a blank look, and at this time he still said such things to provoke himself. She bit her lip and calmed herself.

It's Lord Guang, right? She was tempted to ask him, all of her little but probably dangerously curious. But she also knew that these questions could and should not be asked, so her heart calmed down.

Xiao Yizheng saw her bow her head slightly, and the whole person seemed to be solemn, thinking that it was the girl's family in the end, and it was rare for such an experience to have the current performance. He didn't want to stay too long, so he said, "Go back to the main hall quickly, remember my words, don't worry."

After speaking, he turned around and wanted to leave, his eyes touched the embroidered handkerchief in her hand, he stared at it for a while, frowned and said, "Miss Ling, this king has a reluctant request."

Qingxi put away his little emotions and said suspiciously: "Your Highness, please speak."

"The beauty of this embroidered handkerchief is very unique, and the technique is also quite exquisite, which looks like Jiangnan Suzhou embroidery. There is an old lady in this king's palace, who has taken care of me since I was a child, and usually likes these things, and tomorrow is her birthday, can you borrow it for her to paint a picture? ”

"Huh?" Qingxi was busy looking at the embroidered handkerchief in his hand. The Xinyi flowers in the lower corner of this embroidered handkerchief are light and bright, and the show method is indeed Su Xiu, is there any problem with this embroidered handkerchief? After a closer look, I was surprised to find that the embroidery thread was some damaged at some point, and the style of Xinyi flowers was incomplete. When was this torn by itself?

"Don't you want to?"

Xiao Yizheng seemed to be urging her.

She looked at him puzzled, a man and a girl wanted to embroider a handkerchief, but they wanted to be so reasonable. She felt that her head had been wrapped into a mess by these Xiao family members, but seeing that he was bound to win, she could only hand over the embroidered handkerchief, after all, she couldn't afford to mess with the Xiao family who couldn't be understood by common sense, and she didn't want to mess with it.

"This embroidery sample is really ordinary, I hope the grandmother of the palace really uses it."

Xiao Yizheng took the embroidered handkerchief, "This king will return it as soon as possible." After a pause, he added: "Other things, don't think about it."

Qingxi nodded, blessed, and turned to walk away.

Xiao Yizheng looked at the embroidered handkerchief in his hand, looked in the direction of the apse from afar, and frowned slightly.
