The next day, Yan Zixi gradually woke up from her sleep, and looked at herself lying on the bed in disheveled clothes, Yan Zixi's face couldn't help but turn red again.

Especially recalling the events of last night, Yan Zixi seemed to be ashamed as if she had gone into the cracks in the ground.

She turned her head and saw Xiao Jingcong lying there, looking at herself quietly, as if he had been awake for a long time and had been staring at herself for a long time.

"Xi'er, are you awake? Did you sleep well last night? Xiao Jingcong saw that after Yan Zixi woke up, a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and the stone hanging in her heart finally fell.

Yan Zixi blushed with shame, didn't dare to look up at Xiao Jingcong, and snorted coldly in her mouth.

"Hmph, you're embarrassed to say, you ...... last night You ......"

"I ...... What am I? Xiao Jingcong looked at Yan Zixi in front of her with a smile on her face, and deliberately teased her and asked.

"I ...... I won't talk about it...... I'm ashamed......" Yan Zixi immediately turned her head away, and quickly changed the topic and asked, "Jingcong, why are you still sleeping here?" Don't you have to go to the morning pilgrimage today? ”

Xiao Jingcong smiled slightly, and replied: "Oh, the emperor said, I am newly married Yan'er, and I will not have to go to the morning court for this month." Moreover, there has been a flood outside the city recently, and the emperor has entrusted this matter to me, and I have to supervise the repair of the embankment. ”

"Oh, I see!"

Yan Zixi nodded suddenly in realization, and suddenly she seemed to think of something, and hurriedly struggled to get up from the bed.

Seeing this, Xiao Jingcong showed a hint of incomprehension on her face, and asked curiously: "Xi'er, what are you doing?" Why did it suddenly get up? ”

"It's miserable! It's so late Jingcong, I haven't gone to say hello to my mother, I guess I'll have to be scolded to death by her again at this time! ”

Yan Zixi complained, and then shouted outside the door.

"Xiaomei, Xiaoyu, please come quickly!"

Xiaomei and Xiaoyu, who were waiting outside the door, heard Yan Zixi's summons in the house, and immediately pushed the door and walked in.

"Princess, do you have any orders?"

"Don't ask, quick! Change and freshen up for me! ”

When Xiaomei heard this, she immediately walked over and dressed Yan Zixi. Xiaoyu ran out and fetched a basin of warm water for Yan Zixi and sent it back.

After Yan Zixi hurriedly finished putting on makeup, she glanced at Xiao Jingcong on the bed, and saw that he was still lying there looking at herself, Yan Zixi couldn't help frowning and asked.

"Jingcong, why are you still lying there? Aren't you going with me to say hello to my mother today? ”

"I'm not going!" Xiao Jingcong smiled faintly and said to Yan Zixi: "Didn't your husband solve all the things that should be solved for you yesterday?" Believe my mother and Mama Rong, they won't embarrass you anymore! ”

"But...... Well, if you don't go, forget it, get some sleep! ”

Yan Zixi didn't bother to continue to say anything more to Xiao Jingcong, and immediately took Xiaomei and Xiaoyu out of the room in a hurry, and went straight to Mrs. Xiao's bedroom.

When I came to Mrs. Xiao's bedroom, Mrs. Xiao was watering flowers in the house, and she looked quite leisurely and elegant.

Yan Zixi saw that Mrs. Xiao was in a good mood, so she walked over, knelt down, and greeted her.

"Concubine Zixi greets her mother!"

When Mrs. Xiao saw Yan Zixi coming, she put down the kettle in her hand and snorted coldly, "Get up." ”

"Thank you, Princess!"

"How's the etiquette going?"

Mrs. Xiao sat down, took a sip of a cup of tea, and then asked again.

"If you go back to your mother, your concubine is studying, and she has made a lot of progress, and I believe it won't be long before she can fully learn."

"Very good, if you are willing to study hard, then it will be better. Well, let's go back! ”

"Yes, the concubine is leaving!"

Yan Zixi didn't expect that Mrs. Xiao was not only not angry today, but praised herself, she was secretly happy in her heart, and when she was about to step out of the threshold, Mrs. Xiao's voice sounded behind her again.

"Wait!"

Hearing this "slow", Yan Zixi only felt that her heart "chuckled", as if she had a premonition that something bad was about to happen.

Although she was very reluctant, Yan Zixi could only retract the leg that stepped out of the threshold, walked back again, bowed her hand, and asked Mrs. Xiao.

"Mother, I wonder if you have any other orders?"

"I'm old, you look at my memory, I almost forgot what I was doing. Tomorrow, a poetry meeting will be held in the Jingwang Palace, and the ladies and daughters in the palace and the county lords and daughters will go, and you will go with the palace tomorrow! ”

"Poetry Club?! This ......" Yan Zixi immediately frowned when she heard Mrs. Xiao's words.

"What's the matter, Zixi, do you have any difficulties?" Seeing Yan Zixi's embarrassed look, Mrs. Xiao immediately felt a little unhappy on her face, and snorted coldly in her mouth: "If the princess has something, she doesn't need to accompany the old man to go with her!" ”

"No, no, no! That's definitely not what the concubine meant! "Hot books

Yan Zixi saw that Mrs. Xiao was angry, where did she dare to disobey her?

"Well, that's good, you can prepare well tomorrow and accompany me to the Jingwang Mansion to participate in the poetry meeting, but don't lose the face of our Zhenguo General's Mansion!"

"Yes, the concubine remembered." Yan Zixi nodded, and responded without tears in her heart.

Mrs. Xiao responded with satisfaction, and then waved her hand, "Okay, it's okay, let's step down, let's prepare for the poetry meeting!" ”

"Yes, the concubine is leaving!"

Yan Zixi knelt down again, and after bowing, she hurriedly left Mrs. Xiao's bedroom.

What to participate in the poetry meeting, don't lose the face of the Zhenguo General's Mansion!

This Mrs. Xiao is obviously deliberately making things difficult for herself.

She obviously knew that she only knew the principles of medicine and stone, and she didn't know anything about those poems, and she insisted on taking herself to the poetry meeting, making it clear that she wanted her to lose face in front of everyone and show all kinds of foreign appearances.

But Yan Zixi had no choice but to refuse, so she could only agree.

So as soon as she got out of the dormitory, Yan Zixi put on a straight face and sighed for a long time.

Xiaomei and Xiaoyu followed, and hurriedly asked with concern.

"Princess, what's wrong with you? Did Mrs. Xiao scold you again? Xiaomei approached Yan Zixi and asked in a low voice.

Yan Zixi shook her head, sighed leisurely, and replied, "No, the concubine didn't scold me today, but praised me." ”

"That's a good thing! Why is the princess still frowning and sighing? Xiao Yu also asked with a puzzled face.

"Alas, don't mention it! The mother concubine said that the Tianjing Mansion was going to hold a grand poetry party, and the ladies and princesses in the palace would participate, so let me accompany her there! ”

"That's a good thing!" When Xiaomei heard this, she smiled slightly, and said to Yan Zixi: "Princess, Mrs. Xiao is willing to take you to such an occasion, which means that Mrs. Xiao agrees with you as a daughter-in-law in her heart, you should be happy, right?" ”

"I'm so happy?!" Yan Zixi spread her hands and explained: "I don't know anything about that bullshit poetry club, I don't know anything about poetry at all, isn't it embarrassing to go there?" It's like touching a stone with an egg! How miserable it is! ”

Xiaomei and Xiaoyu heard Yan Zixi's strange analogy, and each covered their mouths and laughed.

"Laugh and laugh! It's all this time, you two heartless little girls dare to laugh at me? Tell me quickly, do you know what kind of poetry will this be, and what should you pay attention to? ”

Xiaomei and Xiaoyu glanced at each other, and then both shook their heads.

"Princess, don't embarrass the slave maid, the slave maid has come to the general's mansion to be a maid since she was a child, where have you ever been to such an occasion as the poetry meeting?"

"Yes, princess, the slave doesn't know anything about poetry, so I can't help you this time!"

Xiaomei and Xiaoyu both showed embarrassment on their faces, and replied to Yan Zixi stupidly.

Yan Zixi didn't expect Xiaomei and Xiaoyu to help anything, she waved her hand and sighed helplessly, "Forget it, I'd better go home and ask my Jingcong, she is a prince, she must know what poetry will be like." ”

Thinking of this, Yan Zixi hurried back to the bedroom with Xiaomei and Xiaoyu.

But as soon as she entered the house, Yan Zixi was stunned.

She saw that the room was empty, and Xiao Jingcong was no longer on the bed.

"Damn! Where did this Xiao Jingcong die again? Every time it's critical, I can't see him, it's really terrible! ”

Yan Zixi immediately walked out of the house and asked the two guards at the door about Xiao Jingcong's whereabouts.

"You two, do you know where the young general has gone?"

"Back to the princess, the young general has left the general's mansion, and he should have gone to supervise the repair of the dam outside the city......" the two guards replied respectfully.

It's over, it's over.

Xiao Jingcong went out of the city to supervise the work, and it must be late when he came back, and there was no time to prepare the content of the poetry meeting. It's simply too late.

What to do, what should I do?

Who else can help me?

Yan Zixi's head spun rapidly, recalling who she had met during the time she had been in the capital, and which people could come in handy now.

After thinking about it, she suddenly remembered someone who should be able to help her.

That person was none other than Xia Guiren, the mother of the fourth prince Xiao Yuyan.

Last time, Yan Zixi helped Xia Guiren expel poison and cure diseases, she went to Xia Guiren for help, Xia Guiren should not refuse herself.

Thinking of this, Yan Zixi immediately asked Xiaomei to arrange the carriage, but before Xiaomei went out, Yan Zixi called her back again.

"Wait, Xiaomei, don't you go and arrange the carriage of the General's Mansion...... You secretly leave the General's Mansion and go to the Yuelai Inn in Dongcheng to find me a groom named Xiao Wuzi, and let her drive the carriage outside the mansion to listen to my dispatch! ”

Although Xiaomei didn't know what Yan Zixi's intentions were, she didn't sit in the grand luxury carriage of the General's Mansion, and wanted to take the folk carriage. However, she didn't ask too much, and after answering, she left the house in a hurry......
