"Look at Bengong's face, are there wrinkles here, here-" Wei Nanyan pointed nervously at the corner of his eyes, while Si Qing's eyes widened and looked at it, and he still shook his head: "No, Niangniang." ”

"But why do you always feel that you are a little old when you approach the Japanese Palace?" Wei Nanyan pulled off a butterfly dance golden hairpin on his head, and suddenly became a little unhappy: "This hairpin is so old-fashioned, it really doesn't match the palace! Are the people of the Six Great Bureaus dizzy, and such things are also sent to the Qingfeng Pavilion? Siqing, go to the palace province and tell them that in the future, this kind of inappropriate thing will let me see it and send it to the Qingfeng Pavilion, and the young eunuch of the Shangyi Bureau will not have to come to the palace to ask for peace in the future!"

"Yes, Niangniang, but you are not old at all," Si Qing put the golden hairpin into the jewelry box next to him, and said softly: "Look at yourself in the mirror, don't say that in the palace, even if the famous ladies in the entire capital are together, they will be ashamed of themselves in front of you." Have you forgotten how Your Majesty complimented you on your countenance?"

"Your Majesty, how could I ever care about his praise, I never cared about him......" Wei Nanyan's voice gradually lowered, paused for a moment, and asked with a hint of sourness, "Presumably, the Lin clan is about to enter Beijing." ”

"According to what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said before, before the summer of this year, the Lin family must be allowed to enter Beijing. Si Qing saw that Wei Nanyan was a little lost, and hurriedly comforted: "Niangniang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in a hurry to take the Lin family back to Beijing, but it is just to use the Lin and Jiao families to revisit the old things, and he doesn't necessarily care more about her, otherwise how could he leave the Lin family and return to Beijing alone for three years - these three years, but the mother has helped the prince!"

"But if he didn't care about Lin Yue Baizhen, why did he risk making the queen unhappy, and he refused to accept even a concubine and concubine, so he had to wait for his wife to enter the door?" Wei Nanyan took off the hair ornaments on her head one by one, looked at the piece of pearl green in front of her, and suddenly remembered what Yao Jin looked like before she fled the palace with Lin Yuebai, at that time she was just wearing this ordinary cyan shirt, with a very ordinary bun with green silk, without any ornaments, and even a little embarrassed, but she looked like that, but she spontaneously had a demeanor that even a woman was pitied. Wei Nanyan, who had never cared about her appearance, frequently compared herself in the mirror with the green-shirted woman in her memory at this moment, although she clearly knew that there was no comparison between her and Lin Yuebai at all, but she couldn't help but open her mouth and said: "Si Qing, you said that I and the Lin family, which-"

Before he finished speaking, the respectful voice of the maid came from outside: "Qi Yu Niangniang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived, and he has arrived at the main hall at this moment." ”

Si Qing was stunned for a moment, and saw Wei Nanyan nodding at her, so she walked outside and said loudly: "Go and serve tea, please sit in the main hall of His Royal Highness the Prince, Niangniang is changing clothes, and she will be there in a moment." ”

The maid outside retreated, and Wei Nanyan stood up with a hula, "Siqing, bring that set of white magnolia clothes and change clothes for the palace!"

"Yes, sis. ”

When Wei Nanyan carefully changed into a new outfit and even recombed his hair and walked into the main hall, Li Yao had actually drunk a second cup of tea. Thinking that Wei Nanyan had never made the guests wait for so long, even the palace maids serving in the main hall couldn't help but look outside, he was not in a hurry, he drank tea with a calm and relaxed appearance, until Wei Nanyan came in, he got up respectfully and saluted:

"I've seen Concubine Xian. ”

"The prince is well. Wei Nanyan smiled and saluted, "Why does the prince have time to come to the palace today, but what's the matter?"

"I was going to Yongyang Hall to greet the queen mother, and the palace people said that the queen mother was talking to the virtuous concubine Niangniang here, and the retainers came over. I didn't expect to be a step too late, and the queen mother had just left. But since I'm here, I still have to say hello to Concubine Xian. ”

"The prince has a heart. Wei Nanyan took a sip of tea slowly and carefully, "Now that you are here, you can't run in vain." There is just a piece of Taihu Lake stone sent by my brother and sister-in-law here in this palace, which is said to be excellent, but this palace does not know anything about this stone, and I don't know what seat to use to place this stone to match. I heard that the prince has a lot of research on mountains and rocks, why don't you ask the prince to help the palace take a look?"

"I don't dare to do research, Erchen only knows a little. Since this is a good opportunity, I also invited the mother to lead the ministers to take a look at the Taihu Lake mountains and rocks. ”

"Good. ”

Concubine Xian was served by Si Qing to lead the way in front, Li Yao left the two small servants who accompanied him in the main hall, and he followed Wei Nanyan and the others all the way to a palace in the northernmost part of the Qingfeng Pavilion. This place is already very secluded, there is no palace people around, Si Qing pushed the door open, the room was empty, there was a sandalwood base in the center, and there was a Taihu Lake stone on the top of the right.

This stone looks like a green pine from a distance, as if it is artificially chiseled, but it looks carefully but there is no ingenuity, it is really a good stone that is natural. Li Yao smiled slightly, "Wei Yan is really attentive, he must have picked the best thing, so he dared to give it to Niangniang." ”

"He's a knife and gun, he doesn't understand this, but it's thanks to the prince who brought him, and he has been following you for a long time, so he has made some progress. Wei Nanyan walked in as he spoke, and said sideways, "Prince please." ”

Li Yao entered, and Si Qing outside cautiously looked around again, and then slowly closed the door and stood outside.

Inside the house, Wei Nanyan's expression was very concerned, and he said hurriedly: "Okay, you and I don't communicate in the palace." Did something happen to you when you came here suddenly?"

Li Yao didn't answer her question, and said directly: "Have you talked to the queen?

"Empress, she's unwary of you, and she shouldn't get in the way of our business later—that's why you came to Seifukan today?"

"Yes. Li Yao didn't hide it from Wei Nanyan, nodded and said: "You know, I want to pick up Yuebai and enter Beijing as soon as possible, she has always been in poor health, and it will take a lot of time on the road, so I have to arrange it as soon as possible." Now, as long as I confirm that the queen has no favorite candidate for my marriage, then I can take Yuebai over earlier, and when this matter is completed, it will also take my worries away. ”

Wei Nanyan tried her best to suppress the sourness in her heart and smiled: "You are really attentive to Miss Lin. ”

Li Yao didn't answer, he stared at Wei Nanyan for a long time, until he saw that her face was slightly red and turned away, and he said word by word: "Nanyan, you know very well that Lin Yuebai is different from you, and I have never hidden anything from you from beginning to end." But between you and me—you should know that I have never changed to you, and one day in the future, what I have said to you will be fulfilled, and I will never fail you, and I will never fail the two words you have said to me. ”

Wei Nanyan only felt that his face was suddenly hot at this moment, and he was very flustered for a while, and even his breathing became short, so he didn't turn his face and stretched out his hand to hide his face, and muttered, "What...... What two words?"

"That night in the Great Ci'an Temple, you said to me that it was worth it. ”
