Chapter 15: Encounter
"Princess Niangniang, the old slave can't hide it from you!" Mama Qin saw Su Qing Su Ling going out with the cleaned up dishes and chopsticks, so she told Du Qin the truth.
"Princess Niangniang, you are the princess Rui who was personally decreed by the emperor to marry, the old slave remembers the trust of Hui Guifei on her deathbed, and does not seek to be above the ten thousand people of Rui Wang, but only to have children and grandchildren to live in peace." Thinking of the old things, Mama Qin's eyes were moist.
"Mama Qin, I know that you treat me sincerely, but I and the prince are not as simple as you think." Du Qinxin only thought that Mama Qin didn't know the problems between the two.
The father strongly recommended the current prince, and he led Yun Jin into the mansion, Zhao Qirui was able to treat himself like this, how could he still go to the side.
"Mama doesn't have to worry about me so much in the future." Du Qinxin persuaded.
Mama Qin thought that she had made a decision that displeased the princess, so she didn't say more.
On the ninth day of February, the spring examination begins.
Du Qinxin got up early in the morning and went to Zhao Qirui's courtyard.
"The concubine begs to see the prince!" Du Qinxin shouted into the courtyard.
Changfeng saw that the princess was in a hurry and thought that something was wrong, so he hurriedly went in to report. "Lord, the princess asks to see!"
Zhao Qirui raised his eyes, "If you want to leave the house, follow her!" ”
Changfeng was puzzled and walked out.
"My subordinates have seen the princess, but I don't know what happened to the princess?" Changfeng asked.
"The concubine wants to go out of the house, and I ask the prince for permission!" Seeing this, Du Qin knew that Zhao Qirui didn't want to see him, and felt that there was no hope of leaving the house, so he was unwilling to ask out.
When Changfeng heard that this was really the case, could it be that the prince would be an unpredictable prophet?
"The prince said, if you want to leave the house, you can do it!"
Du Qin was not hopeful, and he was full of joy when he heard it. "Thank you, Lord Wang! The concubine is retired! ”
Changfeng saw the princess who was still sad just now, her face changed instantly, and her steps were brisk like a little rabbit walking out.
"How did you know that the princess wanted to leave the house?" Changfeng asked.
"Today's spring exam starts, and her brother is also a fresh candidate." Zhao Qirui took a sip of tea and suddenly remembered something.
"You come along, see if there's anything unusual!"
Changfeng took the order and quietly followed behind Du Qinxin, and sure enough, he was heading in the direction of the test courtyard.
"Princess, it seems that the eldest young master is in front!" Su Qing saw it from afar and hurriedly informed Du Qinxin.
Du Qinxin asked the coachman to hurry up, and hurried along the way for fear that he would be delayed and not see his brother.
As soon as the carriage stopped, Du Qinxin hurriedly got down. "Brother!"
When Du Minglang turned around and saw that it was Du Qinxin, he was a little surprised: "Why are you here?" ”
"The prince allowed me to come out. Brother, this test is a few days, but you have all the things? Du Qinxin asked.
Du Minglang didn't expect Du Qinxin to come, if he knew, he wouldn't stop his mother from sending him, and their mother and daughter would also be able to meet.
"It's all packed, you don't have to worry!"
"I'm waiting for good news from my brother, my brother will definitely go to high school!"
"The courtiers have seen Princess Rui!" A familiar voice interrupted the siblings' conversation.
Du Qinxin turned around and saw that it was Shen Lianyue, and his face was happy! "Sister Shen!" Hurriedly helped it up.
Shen Lianyue got up, she didn't expect to see Du Qinxin here. "Is the princess good in the Rui Palace?"
What happened on the day of the wedding was spread all over the capital, and Shen Lianyue was worried that Du Qinxin was not doing well in the Rui Wangfu, and she was afraid that the message would be criticized again.
"Let Sister Shen worry, I'm fine! Are you here to see off Second Brother Shen? Du Qin was afraid that his brother's performance in the examination room would be affected by his own affairs, so he hurriedly diverted the topic.
In the hearts of everyone, Shen Zhiwen, who is full of wealth, deserves to be the first in the autumn test.
Shen Lianyue nodded and pointed behind her: "Yes, it's my second brother who saw you first and asked me to come over and talk to you." ”
Since she knew her brother's thoughts, Shen Lianyue has always felt sorry for her brother, if she had gone to Dufu to propose marriage earlier, she would not have let the two of them suffer from lovesickness like now, and the other would not be cherished if she married someone else!
remembered that when I heard that Du Qinxin was thrown aside by King Rui in public on the day of his wedding, the second brother, who had always been moody, punched the bookcase, and his hand suddenly flowed blood.
Looking at the past, Shen Zhiwen carried his hands behind his back, dressed in a blue brocade coat of water and lake, and still had the appearance of a humble gentleman in his impression. Du Qinxin smiled slightly.
Shen Zhiwen saw Du Qinxin as early as when Du Qinxin got out of the carriage, and the woman who was thinking about it day and night suddenly appeared a few steps away, and Shen Zhiwen was a little in a trance. Du Qinxin's smile made Shen Zhiwen hide in his heart and miss the embankment, and raised his feet to go beyond Du Qinxin.
"I've seen Princess Rui! Brother Du hasn't seen him for a long time. Every time Shen Zhiwen heard or mentioned these three words, he felt remorse in his heart.
Du Qin didn't expect Shen Zhiwen to come over. I was very uncomfortable with the two brothers and sisters calling themselves like this, and they looked uncomfortable. "Second Brother Shen is polite!"
Du Qinxin found that the second brother of the Shen family had lost a lot of weight recently, and said with a smile: "Isn't the second brother Shen also studying hard day and night like my brother?" ”
Shen Zhiwen raised his eyes and stared at Du Qinxin, silent for a long time.
Seeing him staring at him like this, Du Qin didn't know why, and glanced at Shen Lianyue.
"Second brother! It's getting late, it's time for you to enter the exam room. Shen Lianyue also noticed that her brother was a little rude, so she was embarrassed and hurriedly reminded her.
Shen Zhiwen came back to his senses, his face was a little ugly, "I'll go in first!" After speaking, Shen Zhiwen entered the examination room without looking back.
Du Qin didn't think much about it, anyway, he ignored himself like this.
"Brother, you can go in too!"
Du Qinxin watched Du Minglang enter the trial courtyard, and left with Shen Lianyue until he couldn't see his figure.
The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they wanted to say something, but Du Qinxin didn't care if he would be blamed by the prince, so he took Shen Lianyue's arm and went to Fuhua Tower.
"Sister Shen, you don't know how much I miss you." Du Qinxin tugged at Shen Lianyue's sleeve, completely losing the posture of the princess before.
"I also miss you very much, and I want to write to you to ask one or two, but I'm afraid that someone in the palace will say right and wrong. You tell the truth, how well does King Rui treat you? Shen Lianyue didn't care about etiquette when she saw that there were no outsiders, and she wouldn't care if she wanted to come to Du Qinxin.
"He's treating me well, isn't it?" Du Qinxin probably said a thing or two about his current situation in the Rui Wangfu.
"Hey, you're still saying yes? If it's my second brother..."Shen Lianyue just wanted to say that if the second brother married you, she would never be like this, but now that the two of them are impossible, it is useless to say more.
"If my second brother marries a wife in the future, it will definitely not be like this!" Changed his words.
"That's nature!" Du Qinxin felt that although Shen Zhiwen didn't want to see him, he was polite to others.
"By the way, does Mrs. Shen have a proposal for you?" Shen Lianyue is one year older than Du Qinxin, and she has reached the age of discussing relatives earlier. In the past few days, I have heard some rumors about Shen Lianyue, and now that we have met, I must ask a question.
"Hey, don't mention it!" Speaking of this, Shen Lianyue looked helpless.
"I told you that the most fearful thing in this life is to enter the palace, but now I am afraid that it will become a prophecy."
