Early in the morning, the North Hou Mansion received a letter from Princess Lingji, although the North Hou Lord in the Snow Forest Country has a high title of the first grade, but it is a hereditary replacement with no real power, all these years rely on the secret support of the second prince, the two eldest sons are fighting to earn some real power, and the clan has become stronger and stronger in the court over the years. Right now, the princess of Yunmengguo is naturally going to be grandly received!

Today, Lingji and Xi Yan took a small team of guards to visit Beihou Mansion, the purpose of which was to explain yesterday's incident to Zhu Qi and apologize to him.

Zhu Qi was dressed in royal blue brocade, sitting in the octagonal glazed tile pavilion with a serious face, he looked at Lingji with a slight frown and said: "Now that my father is gone, the princess will say if she has something to say, the princess was a villain yesterday!" When I returned to the house, I was trained by my father! ”

Ling Ji felt sorry in her heart, anyone who put this matter will have anger, an unmarried son summoned the world to take a concubine on such a grand occasion, I am afraid that the emperor will discuss it for a while, fortunately, their family door is tall, and the impact will not be too great, with the return of Qishang for a long time, everyone will also forget about this event! She also saw this and chose him as a cover to resist Yabu's strategy!

She stood up and solemnly saluted, and sincerely apologized: "Little Master Zhu, I know that you will be angry and complain that we forced us to force marriage, but please understand, we have a hard time, and now that you have retired from the maid, there is no outsider here, I will tell you the truth!"

Zhu Qi listened, and secretly sighed that the twists and turns in the royal family, officialdom, and nobles are really complicated, even if this is the case, he must be informed in advance, he is so prepared, it is really a forced purchase and sale, he said unhappily: "Your Royal Highness the Princess, no matter what hardships you have, you should be informed in advance, what is the difference between this and bullying, although I can't do it, I have to take care of the huge Beihou Mansion, but the princess's style is really despicable!" As he spoke, he slammed the folding fan in his hand on the stone table to vent his dissatisfaction!

Xi Yan looked at Zhu Qi and was angry in his heart, he put the fan angrily, and there was a 'pop' sound from the stone table, afraid that the fan had broken a few fan bones, he persuaded: "Little boy, you don't have to be angry, the princess doesn't come to inform you that you have a hard time, lest Yabu's spies find out about your secret dealings, and provoke Beihoufu and Yunmengguo to privately accept in front of the empress, Qishang has been stared at by Princess Yabu, only you can save her temporarily!"

Qishang was stared at by Princess Yabu for a small gift, he didn't know, he calmed down and analyzed, no wonder Xiyu and Lingji protected her, it turned out that her identity was not simple, even Yabu attached so much importance to it, he asked: "What is the reason?"

"Yabu's son Lu Xin Shizi coveted him, Yabu already knew her identity - the daughter of the Southern King, the county lord of Qishang, deliberately asked his son to get close to Qishang, the purpose is to get the right of my Yunmengnan Wangfu, you Beihoufu and Yabu are political enemies, this chance is to help Qishang, Yabu thought of detaining Qishang when we saw the empress, forcing her to show her identity, so as to forcibly complete the marriage with his son! How can we not fight back, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, and if you help us, you help yourself! Lingji solemnly explained the cause and effect to him!

Xi Yan nodded and added: "You are crooked, you have unknowingly broken the plan of your political enemies, and you will be humiliated at most, although taking a concubine in name will affect you, but she will not stay in your mansion to prevent you from marrying a wife, and it will not ruin your future marriage!"

Zhu Qi listened to the two of them singing and harmonizing, and laughed a little sarcastically: "So, you still helped me and the second prince and the party, I endured the humiliation yesterday and admitted that you forcibly forced the marriage, and I want to thank you!" Although they have some truth, he also hates Princess Yabu for manipulating other people's fates at will, but he hates Qishang's face that day!

Ling Ji listened to the resentment in his words and knew that they had apologized to him, and Qishang also wrote a letter of apology yesterday!

This forced marriage was indeed a little angry, but she could only choose the simplest and rude way to fight back at Yabu, she took out the letter and said: "Little Master Zhu, I know you will be angry, and I said a few words to me, which is also what I deserve, this is a letter written to you by Qishang!" Take a look! ”

Yesterday, under the persuasion of Xiyu, Qishang also knew that she had brought trouble to Houfu, and she specially wrote a letter to Zhu Qi, although she was very arrogant, but this matter still received his love!

Zhu Qi smiled secretly, she will apologize, he is now full of her condescending, arrogant and domineering appearance, indifferently reached out from Princess Lingji's hand to take the letter and opened it, it read: Zhu Gongzi'an, the little girl Qishang apologized to Gongzi, that day I was indeed secretly persecuted for Princess Yabu, and I took the trouble to send the maid and the son's fire, it was really my fault, and then borrowed the son's jade pendant and letter to kiss, it was really ashamed, I now know that I am wrong, thanks to the little boy for cooperating with my lie in front of the empress, I hereby thank you! The little girl Qishang respects!

Seeing that this letter is written sincerely, although it is very different from her day, it is undeniable that Yabu has also gone too far, and the rabbit is anxious and bites! It's a pity that he bit the wrong person this time, Zhu Qi found that as soon as he met her, all the unlucky things piled up on his head, creating evil! Of course, he didn't believe in these sincere apologies, but it was useless to say more!

Ling Ji took out a piece of jade pendant from her again, and said: "This is the jade pendant I carry with me, there is a word 'Ling' engraved on it, this is what I use to make amends to you, if there is any difficulty in the future, as long as this jade is attached, I will also come to help!"

Zhu Qi took the jade, and when he saw that her words were sincere, he accepted this apology, put the jade into his cuff and said: "Since the princess has said so, I will accept your apology, after all, this incident will not move the foundation of Beihou Mansion!" Otherwise, I swear to the death, and I will fight to the death! After all, there are many helplessness in life, and to anger others is to let yourself go! ”

This matter was revealed, and when he walked out of the Beihou Mansion to the street, Xi Yan sat on the horse's back and pulled the horse's reins slightly. The horse slowed down and followed the side of her carriage, he knocked on the window of the carriage, and snorted coldly: "The main lord did not come forward, you are very active and offer the jade, this is supposed to be the businessman, she has taken advantage of all the good things, you are in a hurry to clean up the mess for her, this is her usual style!" You can stand her! ”

Lingji opened the curtain of the car and gave him a blank look, but he didn't say anything, Xi Yan saw that she ignored herself, and snorted coldly and moved forward!

Lingji looked at a few children in the distance jumping stone lattice game, two slightly older children were pushing a thin little brother, the little brother was anxious to cry and sit on the ground, she said, "Stop!"

The waiter who was driving outside stopped the carriage, Jinren helped her down, she walked to the crowd of children, picked up the thin little brother, patted the dust on his buttocks and said: "Little brother, get up quickly, don't cry like a little flower cat!"

The other two eldest children saw a very good-looking sister helping Xiaobao up, timidly lowering her head, and pinching the corners of her clothes nervously, like a child who had done something wrong was caught, Lingji saw their nervous appearance, and said gently: "You two can't bully this little brother!" My sister will be angry! She reached out and touched their heads.

The two of them nodded when they heard this, and their faces were even more shy and crisp: "Got it!" It's the little brother who has played a few tricks, and we just want to scare him, but we don't dare. ”

Lingji looked at their childish appearance and cuteness, squatted down and pinched their little faces and said, "Obedient, my sister will reward you with candy."

She looked at Jinren and said, "Go to the carriage and get candy and snacks and share them with a few children!"

The children got the candy and blossomed, and they no longer had the nervousness of seeing Lingji at that time, when a high-pitched male voice came from afar, shouting: "Big Bao, Second Treasure, Little Bao stinky boys, run so far to play!" I'm easy to find! ”

Xiaobao's father approached panting, and saw two young women, a young lady with a charming posture, he had never seen such a fairy-like beauty, that maid's clothes were also very good, looking like a beautiful smiling face! I don't know which famous lady this is, he is a little cramped and smiled at them, scratched his head embarrassedly, walked quickly to the child's side, saw the children in their hands with a few pieces of crystal clear candy, looking at these delicately packaged, small and attractive candy to know that this kind of good thing they civilians can't afford to eat, he asked the children: "Where did this come from, you are far away from home, the bad father is easy to find, go, walk back!" Your mother made you rice cakes and told you to go back and eat them. ”

Xiaobao raised the candy and showed off excitedly: Daddy, this sister gave us this, it's delicious! ”

Xiaobao's father smiled, looked at Lingji and said, "Thank you, Miss, the child is gluttonous, I didn't bump into Miss!"

Lingji shook her head and smiled: "No, you are too careful, they are very cute!"

Xiaobao's father took Xiaobao's hand and said goodbye to her: "Miss, thank you for the candy, I took the children away, and his mother should be waiting for them at home!"

Several children said goodbye to her, a father took the hands of several children and walked farther and farther, and several children jumped up and laughed and said: "Dad, you taste it, it's so sweet!"

"Dad, you taste mine, my sweetness, Xiaobao's is a little left"

"It's really sweet, I'll leave a little for my mother to taste!"

……

Lingji looked at their grandfather laughing and laughing, the happy picture gradually left her sight, a tear flowed down from the corner of her eye, she was so envious of Xiaobao's family, when they didn't return home, there was a father to look for them, and when they returned home, there were mothers waiting for them and caring for them! But she didn't know where her father was, or who his name was. My mother travels and doesn't know when she will return home! She stood there, her thoughts crashing against the reef like a huge wave!

Xi Yan didn't know when he stood behind her, he looked at Lingji standing there, watching those children go away with their father, a crystal teardrop flowed down, he gently patted Lingji's shoulder with a folding fan, and said softly in a rare whisper: "Her Royal Highness Princess Lingji, it's not too early, let's go!"

He knew that she must be hurt at the moment, her father's identity is unknown, her mother traveled far away, and her unfortunate childhood is afraid that she will have to spend her life healing! He will accompany her silently!

Ling Ji came back to her senses and sorted out her emotions, turned to see Xi Yan standing behind her, looking at her seriously, not as frivolous as before, she asked, "Why are you here!"
