Xiao Qi stood there stiffly, except for a pair of eyes, there was no place to move.

He watched silently as a man with a hat stood across from Wen Di.

It's him again!

Let the young lady finally agree to marry into the Seventeen Princes' Mansion!

"You have entered the palace, don't forget what you have to do." The hat-bearer looked at the flute, and his voice could not distinguish between men and women.

"You're risking your time here to remind me of this?" Wen Di frowned and stared at him, his voice revealing a hint of coldness.

"I'm afraid you'll forget." The hatsman replied coldly.

Wen Di raised his eyebrows: "It is related to the cause of my parents' death, Wen Di dare not forget." ”

After a pause, she said again: "Your Excellency, you promised to hear the flute, don't be unsure." ”

"Shu Jiuchen vouches as a messenger that the master under him has promised the young lady's matter, and he will definitely do it!" The hat was silently reassured.

"Why should I trust you?" Wen Di raised his eyebrows, and his eyes flashed.

Shu Jiuchen looked at her and sneered: "Because, you have no choice. ”

He pointed to Xiao Qi who was frozen in place and sneered: "How much do you think this follower left by your parents can manage?" He can't even protect himself, how can he protect you? And if you cooperate with us, we can help you secretly. ”

Wen Di sneered: "How to help the Fa?" Who is the seventeenth prince, if you really have a way, why bother to let me be a weak woman to do this kind of thing? ”

"Miss Wen, you have no choice." Shu Jiuchen secretly released his momentum, Wen Di and Xiao Qi both felt a pressure coming, "Once the soul chasing order comes out, there is no room for regret." ”

The momentum of the touch made Wen Di and Xiao Qi feel that their chest breathing was stagnant.

"Remember, you guys, you have no choice!" After Shu Jiuchen finished speaking, he took a deep look at her, quickly turned around, and passed by Xiao Qi like the wind, and at the same time solved his acupoint.

"Little Seven!"

"Miss!"

The two of them held each other at the same time.

"Miss, that person-" Xiao Qiyi really didn't know what to say, in front of the messenger, he really didn't have the ability to protect Wen Di.

"He's right." Wen Di bit his lower lip helplessly, "We really don't have a choice. ”

Xiao Qi was silent, his thin lips were pursed, and his fists were clenched unconsciously.

"Master." Outside the door, the maid's voice sounded, "A visitor is coming." ”

The master and servant glanced at each other, Wen Di straightened his clothes, and said to Xiao Qi: "Let's go, go and have a look." ”

I saw that a woman in red, accompanied by the maid, stood in the courtyard gracefully, holding a fan in her hand, and said with a smile in her eyes: "This is the new Concubine Wen, right?" Sure enough, it's a wonderful person. ”

Wen Di and Xiao Qi stepped forward and stopped, bowed slightly to the woman and said, "Sister?" ”

The maid beside him introduced: "Master, this is Concubine Lin who married into the palace one step ahead of you." ”

"It turned out to be Concubine Lin, and the little sister was far away." Wen Di hurriedly greeted.

"Where, it's my sister who is abrupt." Concubine Lin's maiden name is Ah Jiu, but she is sociable, so she stepped forward to shake Wendi's hand and said kindly, "My sister has just arrived, my sister has brought you some things, and I hope you will smile." ”

As he spoke, Lin Ajiu motioned to the maid and presented the tray behind him.

"Sister, this is a sachet sewn by my sister herself, and it is a high-quality spice rewarded by the prince, and I hope you will accept it with a smile." Lin Ajiu said and picked up the delicate sachet on the tray, handed it to Wen Di, and said with a smile: "Sister, smell it, do you like this smell?" ”

Wen Di took the sachet over and looked at it, and saw that the purse was made of exquisite materials and exquisite embroidery, which was really a fine product.

"My sister is really a good craft." After Wen Di read it, he put it on the lacquer plate and said with a smile, "It's just that my sister has just arrived, and I don't have anything good to give my sister a return gift." ”

"Look at what my sister said, where can I ask for your return gift!" Lin Ajiu took her hand, "It's good that my sister doesn't dislike it." Do you still smell this smell? ”

"Well, it's a good spice. It seems that my sister is deeply favored by the prince. Wen Di said with a smile.

When Lin Ajiu heard this, he giggled and said, "Oh, look, my sister just came, but my sister came to show her affection with the prince, it really shouldn't be ...... In this way, shall we go for a walk in the garden together? ”

Wen Di nodded: "Then it is naturally better to be respectful than to obey fate." ”

After speaking, the two sisters walked together, and Xiao Qi and the maids followed.

The two walked through the Moon Gate, passed by the path, and soon saw the words "Carved Ink Garden" written on the courtyard in front of them, which was elegant and elegant.

"Sister, this moment Mo Yuan is the most beautiful garden in our Seventeen Princes' Mansion. Our prince is also an elegant person, and this garden is planted with all kinds of flowers, which is very beautiful. Lin Ajiu patted Wendi's hand and said with a smile.

Wen Di smiled at her, and the two walked into the garden together.

It is the spring flowers competing for beauty, the peony peony is competing to open, sometimes there are begonias, pear blossoms are fragrant, on a huge Taishan stone in the middle, the word "carved ink" is written in cursive. Seeing this situation, Wen Di couldn't help but feel nervous, and the outline of a certain person appeared in his heart again.

"Sister, look, is this garden beautiful?" Lin Ajiu pulled her and pointed with a fan, "These flowers are all the king's favorites!" ”

Wen Di's heart moved, the prince is also a person who loves flowers?

"Come, our sisters meet for the first time today, and my sister will accompany you to have a good stroll." Lin Ajiu enthusiastically held the flute and walked around the garden.

Xiao Qi followed behind, but it was an unintentional scenery.

It is rumored that the appearance of Shu Jiuchen made him beat a drum in his heart. I don't know how deep the water in the seventeen palaces is, he and the young lady are alone, and if they are not careful, they may have no bones. He had to be careful.

At this time, the spring breeze is blowing, and the air is mixed with the fragrance of flowers, which is very intoxicating. Xiao Qi unconsciously felt his eyes sink up......

"Sister, it's just right in the spring, why don't we go to the front together?" Lin Ajiu's smile was charming, as intoxicating as the spring wind.

Wen Di nodded, and the two walked towards the deep side together, unconsciously moving away from everyone.

"Sister, the lotus pond in front of me is my sister's favorite place." Lin Ajiu pulled the flute and pointed to the lotus pond in the garden. At this time, the shade of the trees shines on the water lotus leaves, and a few water ducks swim freely in the distance.

"Sister, look at the water birds in this lotus pond, how free and loving?" Lin Ajiu looked ahead, with a little sadness in her eyes, she sighed lightly and said, "Sister, you know, our prince seems to be amorous, but he is the most ruthless." ”

Knowing that Wen Di didn't answer, she paused to herself: "In our seventeen royal mansions, there are no less than dozens of women who belong to him, but my sister has been here for so long, and I haven't seen who he really cares about." Every time a newcomer comes, they all look forward to seeing our prince, but who has really seen it? ”

She turned her head sideways, pinned Wendi's broken hair behind her ears with her hand, and said softly with a touch of pity on her face: "A woman like a flower like my sister, I don't know how many times I enter the mansion every year, but the prince can't even look down on any of them, do you say it's pitiful?" Hateful or hateful? ”

After speaking, there was another long sigh.

The two walked forward hand in hand, and their graceful figures were reflected on the water, which was a beautiful scenery.

"But I'm different, sister." Lin Ajiu said, smiling self-deprecatingly, "Although the prince is ruthless to me, he often comes to see me. Otherwise, where did I get a gift for my sister? ”

Giggling twice, Lin Ajiu pointed to the lotus pond under the shade of the willows and said, "Sister, do you know, why is this my sister's favorite place?" ”

Knowing that she couldn't answer, Lin Ajiujiao smiled and leaned in her ear, and said in that charming voice: "Because, my sister has helped several sisters here to end this pain and help them reach Bliss early." ”

After saying that, she still kept a smile on her beautiful face, and with a gentle push of her hand, she fell forward like a paper kite with a broken thread......

Xiao Qi and the maids were behind, and they unconsciously stayed away from Wen Di and Lin Ajiu.

"Poof", the sound of something falling into the water, accompanied by the chirping of a bird in the distance, made Xiao Qi slam a spirit.

What's going on? He's going to fall asleep?

What just happened? Why, he didn't have the slightest impression?

What about Miss? Where did Miss go?

Xiao Qi felt that a chill suddenly hit him.

Miss and Concubine Lin were not there, and the sound of falling into the water was ...... The birds are calling...... Oops!

"Miss !!" Xiao Qi was frightened into a cold sweat, slammed his feet on the ground, and rushed out on the ground.

The sound is coming from over there!

Miss, you must not be fine!

Xiao Qi looked for the sound and left, and a group of maids were also a little at a loss, so they hurriedly chased after them.

Where is it?

Where exactly is Miss?

Xiao Qi anxiously searched around, his eyes went from the flower garden to the lotus pond and beyond...... Eventually, he discovered an anomaly in the water's surface.

"Miss!" Xiao Qi rushed forward and saw that in the lotus pond, under the lotus leaves, there were bubbling bubbles.

He didn't think about it, he threw the sword and stabbed it down.

"What's wrong?"

"What happened? Where are the two side concubines? ”

The maids also looked for it, but there was no one at all, and they only saw the sword that Xiao Qi threw on the shore.

"It's ...... Ah! Niang Niang overboard! ”

The sharp-eyed maid pointed to the water and shouted, and the next moment, the water made a hula sound, accompanied by a splash, and a white figure swept out of the water like a ghost.

"Oops, side concubine!" A maid had already recognized the person and hurriedly ran over with a shout.

The white figure fell to the ground, it was Xiao Qi who jumped into the water, he held Lin Ajiu in his left hand, and Wen Di in his right hand, and his whole body was wet.

"Quick, find a doctor!" Xiao Qi commanded sharply, and at the same time dropped Lin Ajiu, put Wen Di face down on his knees, and slapped her on the back with one palm.

With a "wow", he spat out a mouthful of sewage and began to cough vigorously.

"Side concubine! Side concubine mother! Great, and saved! The girl next to her breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that Wen Di had recovered her breathing, Xiao Qi grabbed Lin Ajiu again, rescued her in the same way, and soon restored her breathing.

At this time, the housekeeper who received the maid's report had already brought someone over, and when he saw the two side concubines falling into the water, he hurriedly asked someone to bring clothes and put them on.

The two of them still kept coughing, Xiao Qi picked up the sword and shouted to the maid who followed: "Don't be stunned, hurry up and go back and boil a bucket of bath water for the side concubine!" ”

After speaking, he didn't care about others, he picked up the flute, and a few ups and downs disappeared in the Kemo Garden.
