Streamer watched Momiji leave, and did not return to the room until he disappeared, staring at the dazzling array of food in front of him, and said in disbelief: "These are all the signature dishes of the imperial kitchen, there won't be a new conspiracy for Princess Mingruo to give to Childe, right?" ”

Ji Chengjin looked at the meal in front of him, thinking of the situation when the initiator broke into his room at night last night, and her heart was furious, she wanted to humiliate herself by giving alms?

Seeing that Ji Chengjin's face was not good, Streamer tried all the food with a silver needle, but no toxins were found, but he was still not at ease: "If you don't eat it, Hongye will definitely be suspicious when she asks, so it's better to find a place to dump it." ”

"Not necessarily." Ji Chengjin stopped the streamer, revealing a hint of imperceptible sarcasm, "Since she can send it, we might as well enjoy it and wait and see what happens." ”

Just when Ji Chengjin's master and servant were receiving a sumptuous meal, Cheng Xi had already begun to make up for piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

The Hua Dynasty chess game in Shen Rang's mouth was a palace Go match held during the Flower Dynasty Festival, which was only attended by noble women of the Yue Dynasty, and she and Jiang Jingxian both signed up.

But when Emperor Xiaowu came to visit him, Cheng Xi gave up the competition on the grounds of physical discomfort, and she didn't want to leave a handle on Jiang Jingxian's case, and she couldn't be clearer about her chess skills.

Emperor Xiaowu was known as the "monarch on horseback", and in his early years, he relied on conquest to make the surrounding countries submit, which created an environment in which the Yue Dynasty emphasized military force over literature.

As the queen mother and the emperor's favorite princess, she received elite education since she was a child, and her martial arts skills were full, but her literary and artistic skills were lacking.

Since she wants to pursue a career, she can't be biased, otherwise the palace water is so deep, sooner or later she will become someone else's pawn and be used.

Hongye and Shui Yue were with Cheng Xi's attendants during the period of recuperation, and witnessed her sitting in the study and beginning to read the ancient books.

But this was just the beginning, and then Cheng Xi asked them to wash their pens and ink, write poems and paintings on rice paper, and not only that, but even put the guqin that had not been touched for a long time and pressed the chessboard at the bottom of the box in front of them.

From being surprised when they first met, to now being accustomed to it, the two of them can't understand why the princess has changed so much since she woke up from falling into the water, but now the princess is more kind and graceful.

"Princess, it's time for lunch, today there is your favorite spicy soup with green shrimp, white fish in wine stew, and nourishing ginseng stewed chicken soup." Hongye came to Cheng Xi's side and reminded, "You've been watching all morning, you should also take a rest." ”

Cheng Xi was holding a chess book in her left hand, and she was holding Baizi in her right hand and was undecided, when she heard the sound of red leaves, she complained in frustration: "It's too difficult to be proficient in Go!" ”

"The princess no longer participates in the chess game of the Flower Dynasty, and she still works so hard, if Your Majesty knows, she will definitely praise you." Momiji smiled and helped her up, "Besides, what's the difficulty with the wisdom of the princess, when you finish your meal, I'll go and ask for a chess to come over." ”

"Sister Momiji, why bother to go far." Shui Yue, who finished the dishes, said, "Ji Gongzi can also play chess, last time the princess asked me to send snacks, I saw him and Streamer playing against each other, listen to Streamer said, Ji Gongzi is the best at chess." ”

Cheng Xi was skeptical when he heard it at first glance, although Ji Chengjin was the prince of Xinyang Kingdom, after all, he came to the Yue Dynasty early to be a proton, and the orthodox education he received was discounted, could it be that he was self-taught?

Thinking of this, Cheng Xi was a little excited, but when he thought of Ji Chengjin's dislike for her, he still shook his head and gave up.

After finishing her meal, she decided to go to the Imperial Garden to digest her food, she had been in retreat since she was recuperating from her injuries, and now she was a little panicked, and it was time to breathe fresh air.

Out of the Fengyang Pavilion to the right, is the Imperial Garden, at this time it is the beginning of February, the Imperial Garden is blooming with purple and red flowers, very good-looking, Cheng Xi stood under the tree, his heart couldn't help but sigh that the scenery is really good, thinking about letting the red leaves and water moon collect flowers to steam flower cakes, the young woman's voice came into her ears, which was also mixed with her own name.

"I haven't seen Sister Mingruo for a while, and I heard that she also quit the Huachao chess game, and I don't know what happened?"

Follow the prestige, there are three princesses and nobles sitting in the corner of the rockery pavilion, usually the princesses have nothing to do, gather in the imperial garden to taste tea and watch the scenery, in layman's terms, it is collective gossip, Cheng Xi didn't care, but the center of the topic is herself, which is very subtle.

After listening to the words of the third princess, the second princess gloated: "Since Sister Mingruo fell into the water, the courtyard door has been closed, and no one has seen it, I am afraid that I am sad about the matter of Shen Xiaohou Ye interceding for Miss Jiang Er, how can I still care about the chess game of the Flower Dynasty?" It's just that it's a pity that Miss Jiang Er was grounded, and I was originally very optimistic about her winning in the chess game. ”

When Hongye heard this, she was about to go out to stop her, but Cheng Xi quickly grabbed her, stood under the tree and continued to eat her own melon.

"Thank you, second princess, for missing your sister." Jiang Yuxin, the eldest daughter of the prime minister, saluted the second princess, "Jingxian offended Princess Mingruo, although she can't participate in the chess game this year, she will always have a chance next year." ”

"We all know that Miss Jiang Er is innocent, but we didn't expect Sister Mingruo to do such a thing, it was not enough to have Xin Yangguo's proton to bully her, and she even intensified it." The third princess covered the expression on her face with a fan and said disgustedly.

"But no, Sister Mingruo actually let a man live in the inner courtyard, it's really ridiculous, could it be that she ...... proton in that small country"

The second princess covered her mouth and let out a "giggle" laugh, pretending to be inadvertent, and introducing the topic into a very imaginative direction, Cheng Xi pursed her lips, her eyes signaled to the red leaves, and she was ready to show up to give them a start.

"Ding! The host is being attacked by words, jealousy, and guessing, and her health continues to decrease, so please replenish your health as soon as possible! ”

The system prompt made Cheng Xi a little flustered, this time it was a group attack, and the anemia reaction was stronger than any before, she gritted her teeth and lamented in her heart, she really hated herself!

At this moment, a sharp voice came from behind, with a thick disdain.

"Isn't this Ji Gongzi?" A green-robed eunuch stood in front of Ji Chengjin and saluted disrespectfully, "Ji Gongzi doesn't stay in the room well, why do you wander around the imperial garden?" ”

The eunuch spoke in a loud voice, which attracted the people in the pavilion to probe out, and when they saw that it was Ji Chengjin, they all showed the appearance of watching a play.

Ji Chengjin looked at him indifferently and didn't respond, and planned to leave in a detour, but the eunuch stopped Ji Chengjin and said: "As a proton of Xinyang Kingdom, Ji Gongzi should enjoy a quiet life, where are you going to go in such a hurry now?" ”

This remark was nothing more than a squeeze on Ji Chengjin, but he seemed to be accustomed to sarcasm, and only looked at the eunuch indifferently.

The eunuch saw that Ji Chengjin didn't care, and continued to warn in a weird manner: "Ji Gongzi walks around at will, can Princess Mingruo know?" If you don't get an answer, and you hear something you shouldn't hear, I'm afraid that Princess Mingruo will blame you......"

"How about blaming it?"

A stern woman's voice interrupted him, and as soon as the green-robed eunuch turned his head, he saw Cheng Xipi coming over with a smile, although his legs and feet were still a little inflexible, but his eyes were full of ice slag, which made his back cold.

Cheng Xi's brain hurt when the eunuch voice of the male duck stabbed her brain, she took a deep breath and walked out from under the tree, although she was dizzy and weak, but her momentum could not be lost, because she recognized that this green-robed eunuch was the person of the second princess.

"I don't respect the prince of Xinyang Kingdom, and now I don't understand the rules when I see this princess, when did I have such an unknown slave in my palace?"

When the eunuch heard this, he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "The slave should die, it is rude for a while, and I hope the princess will ......."

"Wait." Cheng Xi interrupted his words of begging for mercy and said leisurely, "You really deserve to die, but it's a pity that this princess doesn't kill today." ”

Seeing that the green-robed eunuch secretly breathed a sigh of relief, she seemed to be talking about the weather, and said to Red Leaf: "Discuss the rights and wrongs of people in private, if you don't break his mouth, you won't be able to improve your memory, Red Leaf, you are here to supervise, let him palm his mouth until he can't speak anymore." ”

Cheng Xi hates the fox and the fake tiger the most, and the villain who chews the root of the tongue behind his back, and now he is taking this opportunity to rectify such people and let them know the proportions.

The green-robed eunuch had already begun to slap himself left and right, Ji Chengjin glanced at Cheng Xi, didn't say a word, and was about to leave, but he didn't expect his wrist to be grabbed.

"Let it go...... Let go. Ji Chengjin's eyebrows jumped, and a cool warning came out of his clear voice.

"I'm dizzy." Cheng Xi said weakly, without the support of Hongye, it was inconvenient to exert force on her right foot, and her anemia made her even more unstable, so she could only weakly hold Ji Chengjin and try to borrow him to replenish his blood and enhance her combat effectiveness.

As soon as Ji Chengjin wanted to brush her away, the voice of the second princess came from not far away, and Cheng Xi looked up to see that the pavilion gossip trio had already approached and saluted her.

"When Sister Mingruo came to the Imperial Garden, I didn't know if we said anything, and let a slave contradict Sister Mingruo, so angry."

The two princesses obviously didn't expect that the topic of their gossip would appear in the imperial garden unknowingly, and they didn't know how much conversation they heard.

Cheng Xi felt the refreshing feeling of blood recovery from Ji Chengjin's wrist, she smiled, but her words were undoubted: "I am enjoying the flowers in the imperial garden, this unknown slave not only disturbed my interest, but also said that he was not inferior to the person who embarrassed me, second sister, do you think I should be punished?" ”

"Sister Mingruo wants to punish a slave, how dare I have any objections, it's just that Sister Mingruo's injury is not healed, don't be angry because of a minion."

The second princess pretended not to know about her concern, which made Cheng Xi feel disgusted, her eyes swept over the faces of the gossip trio one by one, and it was not difficult to judge from the relaxed facial muscles that they were all looking forward to this secret contest, seeing how she was arrogant and willful, and how she left the scene angrily.
