Compared with the people who were nervously preparing for the grand event on the twenty-fifth day, the two parties did not seem to care much.

At this time, Duanqin was accompanying the Queen Mother to sit in meditation in a meditation room in the Fahua Palace, and the Queen Mother was as calm as an old monk, but Duanqin couldn't calm down. Originally, it was difficult for a strong man to have a lively flower girl retreat, but Jiang Liang really couldn't stand his daughter's restlessness, so he drove her out directly: "Since you don't have the heart to worship the Buddha, don't disturb the tranquility of the mourning family here, go out and do your own thing." ”

"Mother, son-in-law, ......" Duan Qin was about to defend but was stopped by Jiang Fang's silent gesture, Jiang Liang waved his hand at her without opening his eyes, and Duan Qin retreated without saying more. When Duanqin walked out of the meditation room, Jiang Fang slowly opened his eyes, looked at his daughter's distant back and sighed deeply.

When he left the meditation room and passed the main hall, Duanqin met a flawless real person who came in from the outside, and the two politely saluted each other.

"The princess's wedding is coming, congratulations." Flawless, even expressing blessings in such a light tone.

What Duanqin is most disgusted with now is that others congratulate her on her wedding, so she retorted with a slight annoyance: "My marriage can't be the master, and it has to be arranged by others, where does such a marriage come from?" ”

"Since ancient times, marriage events have been the words of the matchmaker at the behest of the parents, and when you are in the world, you have to keep the courtesies of the world, unless the princess imagines the poor way." Flawless crossed Duanqin and sat down on the futon.

"There's nothing wrong with being like you, otherworldly, unfettered." Duanqin often heard that the queen mother said that this flawless real person was an interesting person, so he also sat opposite and wanted to talk to her.

"No, no, Poor Dao doesn't dare to say that he has completely detached himself from the world, otherwise he won't live in this palace for a long time. When one day the poor Dao comes to his senses and wants to leave here, then it is truly extraordinary. Flawless laughed to himself. Everyone wondered why she had been living in the harem and refused to find a famous mountain to hide like other Taoists? In fact, she couldn't figure it out herself, and the day she figured it out was when she left.

"The queen mother is really right, you are really a different person, very wonderful!" Duanqin leaned closer to Wuflaw and asked, "Then the real person will calculate for me, is my marriage good or bad?" As he spoke, he stretched out his palm and handed it under the flawless eyelids.

Flawless raised his eyes and looked at Duan Qin, pressed her plain hand, and replied: "Poor Dao doesn't know how to read palmistry, but Poor Dao has a hunch that the princess's marriage will be happy in the future." ”

Duanqin was very disappointed when he heard Flawless say this, what is the difference between this and those flattering words? She thought Flawless was unique! Duanqin got up and retreated in disappointment, and before leaving, he disappreciated, and dropped a sentence "Then it will be a good word for a real person."

"Is what the real person just said true? Or is it just comforting the princess? I don't know when Jiang Fang appeared behind Flawless, Flawless got up and bowed, and Jiang Fang signaled to be exempt.

"If the princess is willing to believe the words of the poor way, then the words of the poor way are true; If the princess is only a joke, then she can't do it. Everything, it's all in the princess's own ......" Flawless meaningful words woke up Jiang Yuan, she only hoped that her daughter could also wake up as soon as possible and live a good life in the future.

"Queen Mother, the slave maid saw that the princess went in the direction of Moyun Zhai as soon as she came out of the Fahua Palace, probably asking Xiao Tang about the reply." Mama Xia Ying whispered in Jiang Yuan's ear.

Jiang Yu nodded towards Flawless, and quickly left the Fahua Hall with Xia Ying. On the way back to Yongshou Palace, Jiang Fang gave an order: "Then give her a 'reply', so that she can die of this heart." ”

It turned out that Duanqin had always been obsessed with Helian Luang, and wanted to ask King Jing for help to send him an urgent feather letter of 800 miles! Fortunately, the letter was intercepted by the Queen Mother after it was handed over to Xiao Tang, the guard of Moyunzhai, and naturally the letter was not sent. Of course, Duanqin didn't know that the letter had been intercepted, and she was still looking forward to the "reply" from the person she wanted. The Queen Mother intercepted the princess's letter, and in order not to make her suspicious, she naturally had to "reply" on time.

After receiving the "reply", Duanqin was like a frosted eggplant and almost couldn't raise her head, and the person she was thinking about was as decisive and ruthless as ever to her! In fact, she should have thought that this would be the result, as early as the first time he rejected her love, he was destined that this peerless man would not look back for her. Even though he knew that he would be bored with himself, Duanqin still wrote this letter. She just wanted Helian Luon to know that even if he had no intention of her, even if she was about to marry a wife, she still thought of him and thought of him in her heart, and his initial surprise became the eternal scenery in her heart. The little princess felt sorry for herself there, but she didn't know that the heartbroken "reply" in her hand was written by her biological mother.

Like Duanqin, there is another protagonist - the quasi-concubine Qin Fu. Although Qin Fu is honest and modest, his inner world is also extremely rich, he has had different feelings for the maid in the house since he was a child, and when he grows up, he is more sure that this emotion is a man's longing for his beloved woman. He is about to become the groom's official, but he only thinks about women other than his fiancée, how unfair is this to her, and how cruel is it to himself?

The day before the wedding, Qin Fu followed Qin Yan into the palace to face the saint and report the wedding matters for the last time. After reporting the situation, the emperor left Qin Yan to play against him, and Qin Fu made an excuse to slip out. He didn't even think about it all the way to the Shanggong Bureau, he had to see Zi and smile again.

Qin Fu saw Zi Xiao on the pretext of repairing the jade pendant, and Zi Xiao was surprised for a moment when he saw that it was one who came in.

"Second son? Oh, it's time to call you a 'colt', you're overjoyed. Zi smiled and welcomed Qin Fu to the seat, but he turned a blind eye to Qin Fu's gloomy face.

"Don't call me that, I don't like to hear it!" Qin Fu sat on the chair angrily, deliberately not giving Zi a good face.

"Okay, that slave still calls you 'Second Son'. I heard that the second son is looking for a slave to repair the jade pendant? I don't know what kind of jade pendant it is, can I take it out and show it to the slave? Although Zixiao was respectful and gentle, his words were full of businesslike manners, which made Qin Fu even more angry.

"Zixiao, you don't pretend to be pretentious, you know that I don't really want to repair the jade pendant!" Qin Fu casually took off the red jade mandarin duck pendant tied around his waist and put it on the table.

"The slave doesn't know anything!" Zixiao looked very surprised, and as he spoke, he picked up the jade pendant on the table and held it up to his eyes to look at it, it was intact. So she put the jade pendant back in its place, smiled and resisted to talk to him face to face: "Second son, your jade pendant is intact, and the slave maid can't see where to repair it." Xu is a slave maid who is not good at learning arts, why don't you invite Lu Sizhen to inspect the second son? ”

Qin Fu glared at Zi with hatred, picked up the jade pendant and threw it to the ground, only to hear a crisp clanging sound, the jade pendant split into two halves from the center, and a pair of mandarin ducks were on each side of the sky. Qin Fu looked at the broken mandarin duck pendant and was stunned for a while, and only after a long time did he say astringently: "Is it really broken now......

Zixiao bowed down and picked up the jade pendant, and said helplessly: "Second son, rest assured, the slave will repair the jade pendant properly, and when it is repaired, someone will send it to your house." ”

"That's it, God doesn't allow this pair of hard-working mandarin ducks to be together, what are you going to do with it?" Qin Fu looked very frustrated.

Zixiao couldn't bear to see him showing a decadent attitude, and comforted him earnestly: "God doesn't let them be together, maybe he wants to let each other get better results in another way." You see, this mandarin duck pendant happened to split from the middle, and it was so natural to split in two. If the husband and wife hold each end, and together they are complete, it is a metaphor for the husband and wife to be of the same heart! Zixiao's so-called husband and wife naturally refer to Qin Fu and Princess Qinxin.

"It's a pity that I can't be married to my beloved...... Zixiao, I'll ......" Qin Fu still wanted to confess, but Zixiao gently blocked his mouth with his hand.

"The second son must not talk nonsense! You and the princess are a match made in heaven, and the slave is truly happy for you. Zixiao's gaze rarely became gentle, how could she not know Qin Fu's feelings for her? It's just that she can't respond to this heavy feeling.

Zixiao's palm was only a finger away from his lips, and Qin Fu really wanted to kiss her fingertips regardless of this, telling her that he had been in love with her for many years, and the person he wanted to marry had always been her! It's just her! But he couldn't say a word when he smiled at Zi Xiao's rippling eyes, and his eyes instantly moistened. Qin Fu regretted it very much, he hated his cowardice, why didn't he dare to show his heart to her earlier? If she confessed like her before entering the palace, would the ending be different?

Qin Fu's tears finally burst out of his eyes, he clasped Zi Xiao's hand with both hands, and said bitterly: "But I don't love the princess!" I'm not happy to marry someone I don't love! ”

Zixiao didn't respond to him immediately, just quietly shook his hand back, and the thin callus on her palm gently rubbed against his palm. Zixiao hid the sorrow in his eyes, looked back at Qin Fu firmly, and said, "Second son, you see, how different we are. The slave's hands are dry and rough, this is a pair of long-tempered hands, it can't be held with such a warm and clean hand as Childe! Your hands should be holding a pair of delicate and tender ......" Zixiao held up Qin Fu's palm and put the two petals of the mandarin duck together in it, revealing a sincere and bright smile: "You deserve a better ......"

"Laugh! I don't ......" Qin Fu wanted to grab Zi Xiao again, but Zi Xiao withdrew his hand one step faster than him and quickly retreated a few steps, and they retreated to the safest distance between them.

Zixiao thought that her refusal had been euphemistically expressed very clearly, and she believed that Qin Fu had fully understood, and she didn't want to entangle any more: "Second son, the time for you to come in is not short, let's leave early." After all, tomorrow is your big day, and you should go back and prepare. After finishing speaking, he respectfully bent down and made a send-off salute.

Seeing that her refusal became worse, Qin Fu was sad and ashamed, and flicked his sleeves and left angrily. Zixiao waited for him to go away before she was relieved, she silently clenched the placket on her chest, and there was a pendant with great significance to Zixiao under the close-fitting underwear...... "I'm sorry, second son." The place in the slave's heart has been filled by a more important person......" Zixiao muttered to himself.
