"Girl?" The man in black who said it was a little surprised, and it was the first time he heard that a woman took the initiative to buy lanterns, which was really strange.

There is a conventional saying in the southern capital, that is, on the day of the Lantern Festival, the woman personally buys the lantern, which is unlucky, so even if she likes it, she will ask her father and brother or any other man in the family to buy the lantern and give it to her, just for an auspicious marriage.

The black-clothed man continued to ask curiously, "Since it has already been decided, why do you want to put it here for people to buy and sell?" Isn't it intentional to entertain people? ”

Listening to his tone, he seemed to be a little dissatisfied, and glanced at the "rabbit" lantern in his son's hand, which was not so special, very ordinary, but seeing the appearance of his son's love for it, he should like it very much.

Since it has been bought, it is still in its original place, and it is still favored by his son-in-law, but he can't buy it home, what does it mean?

"That's right, the girl said that she liked this lantern very much, but at this time she was suffering from no beloved to give it away, so she let the old man keep it, and put it in the most conspicuous place, and when she found her beloved in the future, she would come to pick it up." The boss explained unhurriedly.

This boss is a little old, and his beard is a little gray, if he wasn't wearing plain clothes, others would still think that this is the reincarnation of the old man in the sky and become a mortal.

He is a living by making lanterns, is a small craft, has made countless lanterns, has seen countless people, every year here set up a stall, guarding the lanterns, watching the predecessors and back, coming and going, stop-and-go, lively.

"Your boss is really interesting," the man in black chuckled, looked at his son-in-law on the side and fiddled with the lantern in his hand with a lonely and thoughtful expression, and refused to let go, with a hint of regret in his eyes, he should like it very much.

His son-in-law is indifferent by nature, he is indifferent to everything, and he rarely shows any special reluctance to something, but today is the first time he has seen it, and the object is still a small lantern that seems ordinary to him.

The man in black couldn't bear to see his son-in-law like this, so he smiled and asked seriously, "Boss, is there more?" ”

"The lantern is for the beloved girl, since it is a girl on the tip of the heart, how can there be more?" The boss smiled and continued, "Each one of my lanterns is unique, and there is no second superfluous one," the boss replied.

It seems that there is not much, and looking at the stubborn and stubborn appearance of the boss, it seems that his son-in-law will definitely not get the lantern he likes today.

At this time, the boss opened his mouth and said, "If this son really likes it, why don't you ask the girl to see if she is willing to give her a favor and give it to you, and forget the wish of the word 'get'," and then pointed in the direction of the front, "It's the girl in the red dress and white gauze in front," I should be unbearable to see the boss's appearance.

The man in white turned his head in that direction and saw a graceful back, a red Luo skirt, which looked a little abrupt and dazzling in the crowd, white tulle, and not so bright and eye-catching, elegant and low-key, perhaps destined to look back at the encounter in the dark, the girl also turned around, but it was not in his direction, just for a second, he turned around again, and then disappeared into the bustling crowd.

The light veil covers his face, he can't see his face clearly, only a pair of eyes clearly meet his sight, dotted, clean and pure, there is no bead on his head, but he is exceptionally beautiful and moving.

At the beginning of the lanterns, on the banks of the river around the city, the look back when you turn around is really beautiful.

Many years later, he was also crazy about chasing this shadow with a face that he couldn't see clearly, and he couldn't stop for a long time, thinking about it every day.

"Childe, do you want me to chase her," the man in black whispered to the side.

"No need," the man in white waved his hand, the loneliness in his eyes was very deep, he lowered his head and said softly, "The left and right are not the ones you like, and there are no lanterns you like," as if he was saying to himself, as if he had made up his mind.

"What?" Obviously, the people around him didn't hear, or heard but didn't hear clearly, or heard clearly but couldn't believe it.

"Let's go home early," said the man in white one last glance at the lantern that was still in place, and said to the people around him, then turned and left in the other direction.

On the other side, the woman in blue who was waiting in place saw a familiar figure, and hurriedly greeted her, and when she saw the woman's smile in her eyes, she also asked happily, "Young master, have you seen your favorite lantern?" ”

"Of course," the woman looked proud, very satisfied.

"Is it pretty?" The woman in blue also looked curious and continued to ask.

"Beautiful," the woman nodded, a smile on her face and a star in her eyes.

The woman in blue also nodded, she was happy to play, and then continued, "Young master, it's not early, we should go back, count the distance, it should be dark when it comes, the elder is afraid that he will be blamed,"

"Okay." The woman nodded and replied.

Then the two men held each other's hands and left, laughing all the way.

When they were leaving, fireworks were set off in the sky, which was dazzling and very beautiful.

At night, the woman was lying on the bed, tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, so she chatted with the person who was sleeping on the ground with her and asked, "Lan Xi, do you know that there is a custom in the southern capital?" ”

"What?" The woman who was called "Lan Xi" opened her eyes and replied suspiciously.

"On the Yuan Solstice Festival, the lanterns are given to people, for the sake of men and women," the woman said, fiddling with the tassels on the bed curtain.

"I know this, that's why there were so many pairs of beautiful women on the street just now, lively and lively," Lan Xi said, and replied casually with a sleepy tone.

The woman lying on the bed then asked, "But if two people look at a lantern at the same time, will they still be happy?" Which one is happy? Or is it the happiness of the lantern that the lantern lady blesses its original owner, or the person who got it later? When the woman said this, she frowned, thoughtfully, and tried to recall the appearance of the person in her memory, but she could not remember it.

But no matter what, she hopes that the happiness protected by the lantern lady is the happiness that can make everyone happy, one person's happiness is too lonely, if only she can get the happiness that can be obtained by herself, she will not be happy, and if she is the only one left unhappy, she is also lonely, so she will not be willing.

Lan Xi was a little confused, so he said, "Huh? ”

"Nothing," the woman's tone seemed to suddenly lose interest.

"The young master should go to bed early," Lan Xi said, then turned over and fell asleep, and after a day of trouble with her today, she was indeed a little sleepy.

The woman lying on the bed closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she was replaced by a slightly blue purple pupil, she didn't know why, she just couldn't sleep, she always felt panicked, but it was empty, as if she had lost something, and she had something, and she couldn't say it clearly.

But in the end, she closed her eyes and fell asleep, and in her dream, she met a very good person, who treated her very well, doted and gentle.

The next day, when she woke up, the sky was already very bright and bright, and there was a faint sunlight shining through the window, she knew that she had overslept again, but it was strange that Lan Xi didn't wake her up today.

She sat up lazily from the bed, and found that Lan Xi was not in the room, and she hadn't even had time to make the bed she had laid on the floor. She felt even more strange, although Lan Xi was about the same age as her, she could serve her since she was a child, and she was also extremely self-disciplined and rigorous, and she would never be so reckless.

So she simply freshened up, only put on a random cloak, and went out of the door of the room, and walked all the way, but found that the huge Lan Palace was empty.

"Lan Xi," she called out the familiar name, but no one answered,

"Blue Tide?" One by one, she pushed open the doors of the surrounding rooms, only to find that they were always empty.

She was a little panicked, those terrible memories of being abandoned and hurt when she was a child, I don't know why a rush of brains came to her brain, she was afraid of being left behind, abandoned, and hurt again, so many times later, she didn't dare to love, she didn't dare to go crazy, she lived a restrained and careful life.

Until finally she saw a corpse around a corner, and then as she slowly got closer, there were more and more corpses, one, two... They were all lying there, spreading little by little towards the gate, flesh and blood blurring.

They were all dead, she recognized, those were all people from Arashiya, they were all people loyal to Arashi, or people loyal to her, although she didn't understand or know, why was Arashiya? What are they for? Why be loyal to her as an ignorant little girl?

"Blue Tide!" She quickened her pace and walked outside, even trotting all the way, "Elder Mo! She passed by those corpses all the way, and until she reached the gate, she didn't find Lan Xi and Elder Mo.

"Where are you?!" She couldn't help but shout loudly, outside the Lan Palace were endless mountains and cliffs, such a sense of helplessness enveloped her whole body and mind, making her panic at a loss, at this time the red shawl was more like a scarlet rakshasa, not warm at all, but it made people feel more desolate.

"Don't shout, they can't hear it, and you can't find them," an unfamiliar voice suddenly sounded behind her, cold and terrifying.

She turned to look over and saw a strange black shadow, under the huge cloak, she couldn't even see his face clearly, naturally she didn't know who he was? Why is it here?

"Who are you?" Her tone seemed a little innocent, but her face was stubborn and calm.

"Who are you?" The man didn't answer.

"I am—" she opened her mouth, but she didn't say anything.

Lan Xi said that Lan Gong is a secret, no one knows, because of her existence, she may kill many people, but it is an existence that must exist, because only in this way can she not live up to it.

As for what he had disappointed, Lan Xi would never mention it to her.

"Who are you?" The man looked at her and asked again, but instead of the joking tone just now, he was serious and cold.

"I won't tell you," she said, struggling to cling to her stubbornness, thinking that was the possibility of victory.

But she forgot, since Lan Gong is a secret and no one knows, then why would he know? Broke in? The people in it are likely to be his handiwork

So, is this secret still a secret? Can it still be a secret?

In other words, from the very beginning, it was not a secret, and it has long been a tool in the hands of others.

The man in black looked at her suddenly realized eyes, laughed, and said, "It's okay, because you will soon forget who you are, you shouldn't exist in this world, you should have disappeared long ago with that legend," and then pointed to her face, and then to her eyes, and smiled even more arbitrarily.

"What do you want to do?" She took a step back, trying to stay calm, trying not to let anyone see anything strange in her eyes.

Arashimiya's secret is her, and her secret is her eyes, her eyes...

"I think..."

She didn't hear what the man said or did afterwards, because she fell into a coma the next second.

"Don't..."

In the backyard where the Gu Mansion lived, Ah Qi woke up from his dream, sweating profusely and his face pale.

"You're having nightmares again?"

The person next to her, who was disturbed by her, asked, and his tone was very plain and ordinary.

In fact, she can't be blamed, Ah Qi has always had the same dream for the past three years, and the people in the dream are terrible, but Ah Qi can't see or touch anything until he is awakened, which is often the case.

It's just that lately, such dreams have appeared too often, and they are weird.

Ah Qi has dreamed of the same scene for five consecutive days, but she was not wrapped in darkness in the dream, but on the street, the empty street, empty, but brightly lit, full of all kinds of lanterns, there was a man in the dream, wearing a mask, holding a lantern in his hand, walking towards her, but every time he passed by her, Ah Qi wanted to reach out and grab him, tear off his mask, but he couldn't catch it, he could only watch him walk past her, again and again...

The person next to him had already changed his clothes, and said impatiently to Ah Qi, who was still in a daze on the bed, "Don't rub it off, get up and go to work, there is the old lady's birthday this month, and it coincides with the return of the seventh young son, and the manpower must not be enough," and then went out to work alone, with a different look of joy on her face, Ah Qi knew that she was happy that she could go to the front hall to serve.

Although the Gu family is said to have a head of the family, the old lady is still the most respected one, of course her birthday banquet can't be sloppy, and the seventh young master, who is away all the year round, will definitely rearrange the manpower in the room when he comes back this time, and there is a shortage.

If it can be photographed by the old lady and pointed out to serve in the room of the seventh young master, it will be a great honor.

This person was bought into the Gu Mansion as a girl in the same batch as her, just like Ah Qi, there are also many Ah Wu Ah Liu, in order of age, Ah Qi doesn't remember which one she is, only knows, they all call her "Ah Qi", because many girls who were bought, most of them have no name, no surname and no home, so their lives seem to be more cheap, just an inferior rough girl, and they just do some dirty work every day to do some miscellaneous laundry and carry water, and they can't get on the table, only those who have names and surnames to find the source, can be divided into each room to serve the master, young master and young lady.

Gu Fu is everyone, if it weren't for the lack of manpower today, they are afraid that they will not be able to enter the front hall for the rest of their lives.

As for the seventh young master, he is the son of the third room, ranking seventh among the grandchildren, so everyone calls him "the seventh son" or "the third seventh son", which is not unusual, after all, the Gu family has a great cause, the descendants are prosperous, and the young lady who is born is a lot, not to mention that it is a concubine, or a master without the support of his mother's family, of course, it is nothing.

It's just that this Gu Qigongzi, I heard that he is very good-looking and chic, personable, and perennial with the army stationed outside the customs, in the army for many years, the former child has just made extraordinary achievements, was announced to be rewarded and awarded, can be regarded as a young man, compared to those who are pampered in the southern capital all day long Miss and family son, talking about it, it is more extraordinary, for a while, many young girls are eager to see this young man in fresh clothes and angry horses, and marry this "big hero", I don't dislike his status as a concubine, after all, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse.

I heard that our princess also likes this Gu Qigongzi very much.

"Oh, good." Ah Qi responded lightly, then got up and got out of bed, and began to dress and freshen up, Ah Qi looked at himself in the mirror for a long time, Ah Qi is very good-looking, white and tender, very delicate and cute, and people in the backyard often joke, Ah Qi is a young lady from a big family who was abducted by traffickers to be a girl?!

Ah Qi touched his forehead, and then to his eyes, his hand touched the long eyelashes, and the purple pupils with a bluish tinge always loomed, sometimes the entire pupil would turn purple, sometimes it was just a little color change, of course, this would only happen when Ah Qi was alone.

I don't know why Ah Qi always thinks that she should be a person with a story, but it should be a very sad story, so Ah Qi always doesn't want to think about it, and he doesn't want to mention it with others.

She felt that such a day was very good, although it was cautious but comfortable.

Ah Qi closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes had returned to normal.

Ah Qi lowered his head and smiled shallowly, the smile he showed was clean and pure, as clear and concise as the spring water of the Tianshan Mountains.

Even if it is an arrangement of insufficient manpower, they only do the work of cleaning in the corridor, so there is nothing to be happy about, Ah Qi doesn't care about these, but there will inevitably be some complaints around her, most of them are lamenting the unfairness of fate, but it is just a whispered complaint by herself, and she doesn't dare to say it to be heard, that is to be kicked out of the house.

"Brother Nan, Brother Nan," the delicate female voice passed from the gate to the long courtyard corridor, she was a very beautiful girl, very beautiful, very beautifully dressed, trotting all the way to this side.

She was followed by a little girl, who kept following her in small steps, shouting, "Princess, slow down,"

It turned out that she was a princess, no wonder she was so gorgeous and delicate.

"I've seen the princess," Aunt Sun, who was doing some things on the side, should have heard the sound, so she greeted her and saluted the princess.

"It's Aunt Sun, Aunt Sun is good," the princess quickly helped Aunt Sun up.

The princess's maid also saluted Aunt Sun, "The slave has seen my aunt,"

Aunt Sun nodded, and she stepped aside, the old lady of the Gu family was originally the cousin sister of the first emperor, the county lord of Zihe, and Aunt Sun was married with the old lady, and her status was naturally different, no one knew what her name was, but they all agreed to call her "Aunt Sun" with the old lady.

Then the princess said to her in an affectionate voice, "Why isn't my aunt by my grandmother's side?" ”

"The old lady is not at ease, let me keep an eye on it," said Aunt Sun.

When the princess heard this, she also looked around, Ah Qi saw this, and hurriedly lowered her head weakly, taking care of the errand at hand, Rao is princess did not notice that Ah Qi had been looking at them for a long time, just staring at the group of people who came in from the side door from the side door in the distance, including men and women, and asked curiously, "Where are so many people going?" ”

"It's the front hall," Aunt Sun also glanced there, and then explained, "Old lady's birthday, there are more guests this year than in previous years, and there is a shortage of manpower, so I temporarily found a few capable people from outside, if they are decent, when the birthday is over, I will pick a few to stay in the house on errands,"

There are many, many subordinates in the Gu Mansion, and Ah Qi really doesn't understand, why it's just a birthday, and there will still be not enough manpower, and it's also difficult for Ah Qi.

The princess also responded thoughtfully when she heard this, and then said, "Oh, this year, Brother Nan has returned from winning the battle with the army outside the gate, and there are naturally many more people than in the past, and the Gu Mansion will definitely be full of guests every day in the future,"

When the words "Brother Nan" were mentioned, her face was very shy, it was the kind of very obvious attitude of her daughter's family, as soon as she came in just now, she shouted this name, Ah Qi felt that this "Brother Nan" in her mouth should be the person that the princess likes, Ah Qi subconsciously thought, what a dashing man he should be, in order to get the favor of the princess, he should be a very good person.

"Thank you, princess," Aunt Sun smiled, and then continued, "Princess, please take care of it, the slave and maid have something to do, so go over first," and then busily went to Zhang Luo.

"Okay, aunt go slowly," as soon as Aunt Sun left, the princess's sweet smile seemed to disappear in an instant, and she said impatiently to Ah Qi, who was cleaning on the side, "Where is your son-in-law now?" The tone was very impolite, Ah Qi didn't answer, it's not that Ah Qi didn't want to answer, it was that she really didn't react at once, she really didn't know much about the things in the house, and she didn't know which sons were in the house? Who are the sons in the house now? Since Gu Fu is a big family, he naturally has a lot of entanglements, and Ah Qi doesn't want to participate, so he can only let himself know nothing about himself.

"What did Princess Ben ask you about?!" There seemed to be some anger between the princess's eyebrows, and she frowned and looked at the little maid in front of her proudly.

Ah Qi lowered his head and replied, "There are many sons in the house, and the slaves don't know, which prince the princess asked, so she didn't answer,"

However, she was reprimanded by the maidservant behind the princess, "Do you have a heart?!" Of course, the princess of my family is asking about your seventh son! ”

"The slave doesn't know where my seventh son is at this time," Ah Qi replied unhurriedly.

She really didn't know that the "Brother Nan" in her mouth was the legendary Seventh Prince, and she had never even heard of the name of the Seventh Prince, nor had she ever seen him in person, so how did she know where he was!

They're just subordinates.

However, they refused to believe it, and the servant girl slapped Ah Qi, and then said, "Bold, dare to tease the princess!" Get down on my knees yet! ”

Ah Qi didn't dare to cover her beaten face, but she was just telling the truth, and her tone didn't go over the line by half a point, how could it become a teasing?! Ah Seventy was puzzled, but he knelt on the ground when he heard the words, lowered his head and said, "The slave is unintentional,"

There are all people around her who are watching the excitement, and they are just watching the excitement, no one will help her, Ah Qi knows it in her heart, so she can only bear it by herself, hoping that they can be less reluctant.

How do you know that the servant girl refused to give up, "Have you thought about it unintentionally?!" He continued to say to the girls nearby, "Where did the girl come from, she is reckless, and she has no courtesy at all!" "A look that refuses to go around people.

At this time, someone stood up and said, "Girl, forgive me, this girl used to do some rough work in the backyard, and she was called to the front today."

If you come to serve, please forgive me, today is the preparation for the birthday of the old woman in my family, and it is also a big day, don't lose your good interest and be annoyed for a girl,"

Then she looked at Ah Qi who was kneeling on the ground, and then at the servant girl beside the angry princess, and finally said to the princess who was standing next to her without saying a word, "The princess wants to find the seventh prince, and the seventh prince should be in the garden at this time, with the old woman,"

She's smart.

Ah Qi is also grateful to her.

"Forget it, color screen," the princess waved the silk handkerchief in her hand and said, when she passed Ah Qi, the princess threw the silk handkerchief in her hand on the ground, and said to Ah Qi expressionlessly, with a proud look, "Wipe it," and then left this place of right and wrong with a proud face, as if nothing had happened.

The maid who stood up just now helped Ah Qi up, looked at Ah Qi's slightly red half of his face, and said, "Does it hurt?" ”

"It doesn't hurt," Ah Qi shook his head and said.

She glanced at Ah Qi and said, "That's good, I'm afraid that you will say that it hurts, even if it hurts, you have to endure it, people are princesses, we are inferior slaves, we don't even deserve our names and surnames, this is fate, we don't deserve to cry pain," and then walked away to do her business.

Ah Qi stood in place and just smiled helplessly, not saying anything else.

Since Ah Qi entered the Gu Mansion, there are always people who mention it in her ears from time to time, this is all fate, and sometimes Ah Qi will have an illusion, is it really unequal between people?

But Ah Qi will not chase this answer to the death, if it is, then she is the one who is not favored by God, if not, she can't change anything, that will only make her more sad.

However, all this was seen by Aunt Sun, who was standing in the distance.

"Eh, it's just you," After a while, Ah Qi was stopped by Aunt Sun, who was standing on the other side of the corridor, to make sure that Aunt Sun was looking in her direction, and there was no one around.

Ah Qicai pointed to himself suspiciously, "Me? She didn't know why Aunt Sun suddenly called her, and she didn't know why she was so unlucky today?

"Yes, come with me," Aunt Sun nodded at her, with a kind expression.

"Okay." Ah Qi responded and walked over, but he just followed Aunt Sun quietly and walked all the way.

After walking for a while, Aunt Sun spoke, "Was it difficult for the princess just now?" Then Aunt Sun followed up and said, "The saint is such a princess, she has no mother since she was a child, she can't help but love a little more, she was raised by the queen, and she can be regarded as her own, she has been pampered since she was a child, and her temperament is arrogant, but fortunately, she is not a bad heart, don't forget to go in your heart, if you feel wronged..."

Later, Ah Qi learned that this princess is called Jingyi, Xiao Jingyi, is the only princess of the Nandu Dynasty today, and the maidservant girl behind her is called Xiang'er, her mother died in childbirth, and she didn't even have time to look at her, and when she talked to her, she lost her breath, and the person who killed her mother was the queen mother who had been raising her, and she had been thinking about the seventh son of the Gu family, named Gu Nantian.

Before Aunt Sun could finish speaking, Ah Qi said, "The slave doesn't feel wronged, it was the slave who said the wrong thing and collided with the princess,"

When Aunt Sun heard Ah Qi's words behind her, she couldn't help but look back at her more, her eyes showed a look of satisfaction, and she said unexpectedly, "You are sensible, just wait here, I will call you if necessary,"

Ah Qi stood in the corner, looked around, and realized that he had followed Aunt Sun all the way through the corridor to the garden of the Gu Mansion, where there was more laughter and laughter.

"Aunt Xie Sun," Ah Qi knew that she was helping her, maybe she also felt that she was really wronged by that slap, so she helped her, wanting her to stand in front of people, at least not to make herself look so low.

"Yes." Then Aunt Sun left and went to the old lady's side.

Ah Qi is a person who is easy to be satisfied, so the days in the house have been very quiet, quietly doing what she should do, quietly doing what others tell her, she also wants to be quiet all the time, she also thinks that at least she will be quiet, after all, she has not harmed anyone, and she has not done anything wrong, and she is already so pitiful, God should be reluctant to punish her, after all, she has done it to keep herself transparent and not noticed.

But who knows, her fault was doomed from the beginning, God never favored her for a moment, and her suffering ended from the beginning.

"Grandma!" When I raised my eyes, I saw Xiao Jingyi trotting towards the most lively part of the crowd, and as soon as I saw her figure, the group of ladies and ladies of the family who surrounded Old Madam Gu scattered one by one, made way for her, and saluted one after another, "I've seen the princess,"

Xiao Jingyi nodded lightly at them, then straightened her body, made a regular salute, and said with a bright smile, "I wish grandma good health and a smile forever!" ”

Then the girl behind her stepped forward and handed over a carefully prepared gift, which was a thousand-year-old ginseng and some precious and rare medicinal materials, which was very intimate.

Old Madam Gu also smiled, squinted at the little girl in front of her, and said, "It's Jingyi, come here, come over to grandma, let grandma take a good look," Old Madam Gu patted the empty seat on her seat and motioned for her to come forward and join her.

Hearing this, Xiao Jingyi stepped forward and sat beside Old Madam Gu with an affectionate expression.

Old Madam Gu looked at the little girl in front of her carefully, she hadn't seen her for a long time, she had really grown up, and said with a kind face, "It's so beautiful, it's really getting more and more beautiful,"

Xiao Jingyi lowered her head, smiled shallowly, and said with pride and joy in her eyes, "Grandma always makes fun of me,"

Xiao Jingyi, our only princess in Nandu, everyone says that she is the most beautiful woman in Nandu, there is no one, and she is also the most noble woman, I really want to know what kind of person her future husband is?

Old Madam Gu just smiled, as if she remembered something, and continued, "You're about to become an adult, right?" ”

"Well, next month is my birthday, what gift does grandma plan to give me," Xiao Jingyi looked like a child, and said very coquettishly, "I don't want it ordinary!" ”

Old Madam Gu looked at Xiao Jingyi's pouting mouth, touched her little face, and said with a smile, "I know, grandma must prepare it for you, it must be the best, so as to be worthy of the first princess of our southern capital,"

When Xiao Jingyi heard this, she stuck her whole body on Mrs. Gu's body and said, "I know that grandma loves me the most," like a very satisfying child who is coquettish to adults.

"Princesses are about to grow up, and they love to be coquettish so much, like a child, but how can they do it?" There was a person in the crowd who joked that looking at the clothes, he should also be a person with noble status, and yes, which person present is not noble?

Gu Mansion has been glorious for generations, inherited for thousands of years, it is everyone in the Southern Capital, it is a place that everyone is eager to enter, in addition to the royal family, the people who want to climb the most, even the maid of Gu Mansion, out of the house, is also an existence that will be invisibly superior.

"I'm a child in front of my grandmother, and I'm going to stick to my grandma for the rest of my life," Xiao Jingyi also said unrelentingly, with a smile on her face, obviously they were all jokes and acquaintances, so she didn't feel arrogant or angry.

"How does this work?" Another person also said like this, "The princess wants to stick to the old lady for the rest of his life, I think I can only simply marry into the Gu Mansion and become the daughter-in-law of the Gu family, so I can naturally accompany the old lady and make the old lady happy every day, is the princess willing?" ”

Xiao Jingyi lowered her head, her face flushed slightly, and she said in a slurred voice, "If it... I... Naturally, I am also willing,"

"Tut, you see, our little princess is really big, she can't keep it, and she wants to get married," the lady who took the lead just now said jokingly to the people next to her, "There is more than one son in the Gu Mansion, and the old lady has many grandchildren, and I don't know which one our princess likes?" ”

The other sang a double reed along with him, and said, "Isn't it the Gu family... The Seventh Son? "It seems to be a clear look, and it's not a big secret.

Xiao Jingyi's face became more and more red, and she lowered her head and looked like a daughter's house, as if she had been poked by someone and the silent thoughts hidden in her heart, and said angrily, "If you make fun of me again, this princess will be angry,"

So, those people looked at her shy, smiled, and stopped talking, saying that Mrs. Gu patted her hand intimately and said, "Go play, it's boring to accompany me as an old man, go and play with your brothers,"

Xiao Jingyi answered, and then got up and left that place.

Ah Qi looked at her figure and thought in his heart, what kind of talent is worthy of the peerlessness and dignity of this princess?

Ah Qi looked at Xiao Jingyi with an innocent smile on her face, and the scene full of joy, she couldn't help but start thinking, do you have a family too? Where is it now? It would be nice if she could be with her family instead of herself, she would not be spoiled at will, and she would not be willful, but... Ah Qi was not so lucky.

I haven't been so lucky.

Xiao Jingyi really ran to the crowd on the other side of the garden.

Most of the people gathered there were men, the women's families chatting about their parents' shortcomings and making fun of themselves, and the men chatting about their ideals and ambitions.
