Mo Wen instructed the housekeeper early in the morning that if the fourth prince came, he would say that the national teacher was not there, and let him directly pick up Miss Xin Yao, and ordered the housekeeper to take Xin Yao to the side hall first.

The fourth prince went down to the court, prepared the carriage, and came to the National Teacher's Mansion early, he was eager to pick up Xin Yao, afraid that Xin Yao would change.

As soon as he entered the mansion, the housekeeper greeted him and bowed: "Your Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, the National Teacher has instructed that you can just pick up Miss Xin Yao directly, and you don't have to go to see him." ”

The fourth prince was surprised: "Why? ”

The housekeeper replied: "My lord has something to do today, and he is not in the house." ”

"Oh, okay, is Miss Xin Yao in Taoyuan?"

"No, she's already waiting in the side hall."

The fourth prince couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart and said, "Okay." "Go to the side hall at once.

When Xin Yao saw the four princes coming in, she stood up and blessed: "The fourth prince, you are here." ”

The fourth prince hurriedly helped her gently with his hand: "I didn't salute when I saw it before, but why is it that I am divided today." ”

Xin Yao smiled: "I entered your mansion, but I have to salute every day, just early." ”

The fourth prince looked at her: "No, even if you are in my mansion in the future, you don't have to salute, you don't have to do it anytime." ”

Xin Yao smiled and whispered, "Hmm." Dao.

The Fourth Prince: "Let's go and see Mo Wen and leave, okay?" ”

Xin Yao was a little hesitant, they definitely didn't want to see me, but he couldn't leave without even saying hello, it was too rude, so he said, "Okay." ”

When the two arrived in Taoyuan, Mo Wen sat in the courtyard, and the fourth prince walked up to Mo Wen and said, "Mo Wen, I will take Xin Yao away today, Liuyun is not here, you can help me say it." ”

Mo asked, "Hmm." "Yes.

Xin Yao stepped forward and saluted: "Thank you Lord Liu and the National Teacher for taking care of you, Xin Yao will say goodbye." ”

Mo Wen didn't pay attention to her at all, but said to the fourth prince: "If you go to the Jin Kingdom this time, I won't send it, please take care." ”

The fourth prince said: "Brother Xie Liu cares, I will be more careful." ”

Mo asked, "Let's go, I still have something to do." ”

The fourth prince felt that Mo asked unpleasantly, probably because he was going to take Xin Yao away, he was a little reluctant, so he said: "Xin Yao can come back often in the future, and it will be the same as before." ”

Mo Wen didn't have much expression on his face, and said, "She is your person now, you can do whatever you want, it's okay, you can go." ”

The fourth prince couldn't understand a little, why Mo Wen was so cold today, as if he was issuing an eviction order, was it because of Xin Yao? No matter what, Xin Yao must be taken away, how can she give up after she has been thirsting for so long. I had no choice but to arch my hand and say: "Okay, when I come back from the Jin Kingdom, I will also invite Liuyun and you to attend my wedding with Xin Yao, and I will say goodbye today." ”

Mo asked, "Okay." ”

The fourth prince turned back to Xin Yao and said, "Let's go." The two turned and left.

The Four Princes' Mansion is different from the National Teacher's Mansion in the flowery and shady green trees, the layout here is regular, the pavilions are staggered, the exquisite corner towers, and the pillars of white marble are faintly luxurious.

The four princes carefully helped Xin Yao across the covered bridge, to a courtyard, this is the closest courtyard to him, he has not officially crowned the king, nor has he married a wife, there are only a few concubines in the house, this courtyard originally lived in his favorite concubine Xiao Yingying, after coming back yesterday, he let Xiao Yingying move out, although Xiao Yingying was very reluctant, but seeing the four princes sink their faces, as if they were going to get angry, they quickly packed up and moved out, the four princes cleaned up overnight, replaced all the furniture with new ones, and ordered people to put the ground, on the bed, on the door, The window was washed several times with water, fearing that it would leave its former smell, and many more objects and ornaments were added until he thought he was satisfied, but he did not sleep all night, and was busy until dawn, and did not leave until he was about to go to the court.

Several maids saw the four princes coming in, and hurriedly saluted: "Your Highness, Wan'an." ”

"Okay, let's all get up." After speaking, he helped Xin Yao: "This is the courtyard I prepared for you, you live first, and when I come back from the Jin Kingdom, I will repair a new courtyard for you, okay?" ”

Xin Yao smiled and said, "Thanks to the love of the four princes, I can live anywhere, which is already very good." ”

"That's good, it's my bedroom opposite, you can come to me directly if there's anything you want, you don't have to report it."

"Okay, everything is arranged according to His Highness."

Seeing that Xin Yao was quite satisfied, the fourth prince was relieved a lot, and said to a few maids: "This is your new master, Miss Xin Yao, who will serve well in the future." ”

"Yes." Several maids hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down again: "The slave maid has seen Miss Xinyao." ”

Xin Yao smiled and said, "Let's get up quickly." ”

The fourth prince: "I arranged these for you first, they have all served me, and they can be trusted, if they are not enough in the future, I am choosing." ”

Xin Yao: "These are enough, thank you, Your Highness." ”

The Fourth Prince: "Xin Yao, you are always so polite, I am not used to it." ”

"Okay, I'll just order it later."

Entering the house, Xin Yao looked at the furnishings in the house, knowing that the fourth prince was attentive, and felt a little guilty in his heart, he lied to him like this, I don't know how much he will hate her in the future, and I thought of Twilight Liuyun, how is he, have you woken up? It's not going to be hard today.

Seeing that Xin Yao was a little distracted, the fourth prince thought that she was tired, and said, "Why don't you rest for a while, and we will have dinner together at noon." ”

"Okay, I'll see you later." Xin Yao blessed her body. The fourth prince walked out with a smile.

Xin Yao sat on the couch, her mind was full of twilight clouds, lingering, and she opened her sleeves again, looking at the bruises pinched by twilight clouds on her wrists.

Soon, the four princes sent someone to invite Xin Yao to dinner. Xin Yao looked at the table full of dishes, and smacked her tongue a little, "Why do you prepare so much, just the two of us?" ”

The Fourth Prince: "I don't know what you like to eat, so I've prepared some of everything." ”

Xin Yao smiled: "Then thank Your Highness." ”

Xin Yao sat down, and the fourth prince took a scallop and put it in Xin Yao's bowl, "This is transported from the seaside, and no one with money here can eat it, and you have to keep changing the ice cubes along the way to keep it from breaking, you taste it." ”

Xin Yao didn't eat anything from the sea in the imperial city of Tanzhou, but in Jinyang, it was really rare, she peeled off the scallop meat and tasted it, and nodded: "It's quite fresh." ”

The fourth prince was very happy, he didn't care about eating, he sandwiched this and that for Xin Yao, as if he was diligent or something, and the maids who were waiting next to him were all churning in their hearts: Miss Xin Yao is really good-looking, seeing that His Royal Highness is so good to her, she should be pampered for a long time.

Before the meal was finished, someone from the palace came to invite: "The Queen Mother, please enter the palace quickly." ”

The fourth prince responded: "Got it." ”

The fourth prince put down his chopsticks and said to Xin Yao: "No way, I will leave for Jin Kingdom the day after tomorrow, the imperial grandmother must not be at ease, I have to explain some matters, you cut and eat slowly, you can go around the house when you are finished, and wait for me to come back." ”

Xin Yao: "Go quickly, I'm fine here." ”

The fourth prince got up: "Okay, wait for me!" After speaking, follow the palace people out.

Xin Yao was not in the mood to eat, so she put down her chopsticks and said, "Take it all." ”

When I went back to the house, I lay down for a while, but I couldn't sleep, so I just got up and wanted to go out for a walk.

Xiao Yingying heard a report from someone who said that the fourth prince had brought a woman into the house and lived in her courtyard, she trembled with anger, it turned out that she had a new love, no wonder she didn't let her serve for a few months, it seems that she already had it outside. Xiao Yingying got up and shouted, "Let's go, see if I don't clean her up!" ”

Qiu Lian, the personal maid next to her, hurriedly stepped forward to stop: "Madam, no, she is being favored now, if you provoke her, the Fourth Highness can spare you." ”

"Then what should I do, will I suffer this humiliation in vain!" Xiao Yingying stomped her feet angrily.

Qiu Lian hurriedly said: "I didn't say that I wouldn't clean her up, I have to think of a way." ”

"What's the solution?"

"Madame bothered you to send someone to invite Princess Zhaoyan, saying that the fourth prince had a new woman, who was very beautiful, that Princess Zhaoyan was jealous, and she couldn't get angry when she saw that she was more beautiful than her, and besides, she loved to run to our house, and she didn't come to see the freshness, so it would be okay to create some trouble when the time came, even if the new woman suffered, what does it have to do with you, right, you want to take back your favor in the future, how can you let Your Highness annoy you."

Xiao Yingying's face blossomed with joy when she heard this, "It's good, Qiu Lian, but the princess is in the palace, how can she get in?" ”

"I have a way, I'll go to this matter, find a palace person, give some benefits, and let him bring a message to Princess Zhaoyan."

"Okay, then you can do it right away." Qiu Lian answered.

Xiao Yingying leaned on the couch, half-squinting her eyes, waiting for Qiu Lian's good news.
