"The slave knocks on Princess Ning." Huang Gonggong bowed and saluted.

The little palace maid also knelt down and kowtowed: "The slave maid has seen Princess Ning." ”

Xiao Liulang bowed to Princess Chongning, with a calm demeanor and a frank expression.

Xiao Liulang was wearing a champion suit, which was very easy to identify. It's just that Princess Ning has never seen the little marquis of Zhaodu, and recently Concubine Zhuang Guifei didn't tell her about outside things in order to let her raise the baby with peace of mind, so she didn't know about the rumors about this new champion for the time being.

Princess Ning bowed her head politely, in the end, it was a foreign man, she was inconvenient to have too much contact with him, her gaze fell back on the little palace maid who was kneeling on the ground: "I remember that you are the palace maid next to His Royal Highness Chen Guoliu, is something happened to Your Royal Highness?" ”

The little palace maid sobbed and said: "If Princess Huining speaks, His Royal Highness the Sixth is sick, and there has been no imperial doctor to treat him, and the slave maid is worried that if it continues like this, His Royal Highness will be sick......

Princess Ning's hand gently touched her stomach, a trace of complexity flashed under her eyes, and said, "You go back first, I will show this matter to the concubine." ”

It's good that this kind of thing hasn't happened, but it can't be said that it doesn't matter if it does, and it should be a virtue accumulation for the child in the womb.

"Yes! Be! Thank you Princess Ning! The little palace maid kowtowed a few times, thanked her, and got up to go back.

Princess Ning also went out of the imperial garden accompanied by the palace maid.

"Congratulations to Princess Ning." Huang Gonggong made a gesture, and it was not until Princess Ning disappeared at the end of the path that he straightened up, smiled at Xiao Liulang, and said, "Xiao Zhuangyuan, please come here." ”

Xiao Liulang nodded, and continued to walk in the direction of the East Palace with Huang Gonggong.

Xiao Liulang noticed that when passing by the tall banyan tree, Huang Gonggong glanced at the tree intentionally or unintentionally, as if he was looking for something, but there was nothing on the tree.

Xiao Liulang retracted his gaze, for some reason, he always had the illusion that he had escaped a catastrophe, which was very strange.

After Princess Ning returned to the palace, she reported the incident of meeting the little palace maid of Chen Guo to Concubine Zhuang Guifei, who hated Chen Guo's proton, because their children of the Zhuang family had entered Chen Guo as a hostage, and they suffered a lot in Chen Guo, and she couldn't wait for Chen Guo's proton to also experience the pain that King Anjun had suffered.

But she just thought to herself, she was still not so stupid to really let her do something.

Concubine Zhuang went to the imperial study and told the emperor that Chen Guo's proton was seriously ill, and the emperor instructed Gonggong Wei to arrange for an imperial doctor to come over.

Liu's house.

The sun is shining, Liu Yisheng sits on a small bench in the front yard and rubs hemp rope, while Anu and the old woman weave baskets on the side, which is the main source of income for the family.

If they are lucky, they can weave four baskets a day and rub ten hemp ropes, which is fifty copper plates, but because Liu Yisheng is often bullied, there is no guarantee that he can work every day.

Opposite Liu Yisheng sat two people, one was Gu Jiao, who was petting a white cat, and the other was a young man in a blue robe.

The man's eyebrows and eyes are one or two similar to Liu Yisheng's, and he can't see it if he doesn't look closely.

The man is handsome, a little less delicate than Liu Yisheng, but he can be regarded as an elegant and dignified beautiful man.

His clothes are luxurious, incompatible with the tattered courtyard, and he is not at all like the down-and-out Liu Yisheng.

is such a person, but he is sitting on a rattan chair, playing with the fan in his hand, and talking to Liu Yisheng in a leisurely manner.

"You're finally willing to contact me." He laughs.

Liu Yisheng rubbed the hemp rope and sweated profusely, and he didn't know whether he didn't have the time to pay attention to him, or he didn't bother to pay attention to him.

The young man was not angry, opened the folding fan, fanned it in a chic manner, closed it with a snap, looked at Gu Jiao and said, "Who is she?" ”

"Doctor." Liu Yisheng finally spoke, his eyes staring at the hemp rope in his hand, and he didn't look at the person he was talking to, but he guessed that he was asking Gu Jiao.

The young man patted his palms with a folding fan and said meaningfully, "Are there still doctors willing to pay attention to you these days?" It's not an ordinary doctor, is it? ”

Reading between the lines, he seems to know Liu Yisheng's situation well.

Gu Jiao was happy to pet the cat, and when she heard this, she turned her head and glanced at the young man lightly: "Of course I am not an ordinary doctor, I am a miracle doctor." ”

Young man: "......"

Do all the women of Zhaoguo love to put gold on their faces?

"Do you know who he is?" The young man asked Gu Jiao this time.

"Liu Yisheng." Gu Jiao continued to pet the cat.

The young man hooked his lips and smiled, and pointed at Liu Yisheng with a folding fan: "He is my cousin." ”

"Huh?" Gu Jiao blinked.

This young man was none other than the sixth prince of Chen Guo, who had just pretended to be sick in the palace.

Gu Jiao originally planned to sneak into the palace by herself, but Liu Yisheng said that she couldn't get in, but her news could be sent in.

Then not long after, this man who claimed to be the sixth prince of Chen Guo came to Liu Yisheng with the white cat he caught.

Gu Jiao looked at Liu Yisheng: "Chen Guoren?" ”

Hmm, is it really okay to tell her about such an important thing?

Gu Jiao's reaction was calmer than the six princes imagined, but she was not too surprised when she thought of him reporting his identity, and the six princes were relieved.

It's just a calm little girl.

Gu Jiao continued to pet the cat.

"You're not leaving?" Liu Yisheng said to the six princes.

The sixth prince smiled and said, "It's rare for you to contact me once, how can I not come to the door and sit for a while?" I almost thought you'd never contact me again in your life. ”

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Gu Jiao, and he didn't shy away from his relationship with Liu Yisheng at all, "I came to Zhaoguo to be a proton, just to persuade him to go back with me, he doesn't listen to me, you might as well help me persuade him." ”

Gu Jiao: I really don't want to know so much......

"Anu, send off!" Liu Yisheng did not raise his eyes and ordered the eviction of customers.

Anu put down the half-woven basket, got up and came to the Sixth Prince, saluted him, and motioned for him to go out.

The six princes who can be driven out of such a broken place: "......"

The sixth prince patted the rattan chair helplessly, and left with a sigh.

The white cat is so cute, chubby, with a soft and shiny coat, Gu Jiao is very satisfied.

The white cat was also stroked very comfortably, lying on Gu Jiao's lap, with its feet facing the sky, exposing its most vulnerable belly to Gu Jiao.

Liu Yisheng didn't give Gu Jiao an eviction order, he rubbed the hemp rope for a while, and suddenly said, "My mother is from Chen Guo." ”

"Huh?" Gu Jiao's movements of petting the cat also paused, and turned her head to look at him.

Liu Yisheng lowered his head and rubbed the hemp rope, he was also a pair of slender and good-looking hands, but he was grinded out of cocoons and blood by life: "He Yuantang's mother is a sister." ”

Oh, it turns out that the prince of Chen Guo is called Yuan Tang.

Gu Jiao understood, the two sisters, one entered the palace as a concubine, and the other went to the enemy country to do detailed work, and it was not easy to think of the family that could cultivate these two sisters.

"Does the Emperor know?" Gu Jiao asked.

Liu Yisheng shook his head: "I don't know if he knows." ”

When the Liu family was convicted, Liu Yisheng was too young, and no one told him what happened to the Liu family, so he watched the Liu family being raided, beheaded, exiled, and finally left him as a child, and a mother with a small body.

Anu was picked up halfway.

Liu Yisheng thought for a while, and said: "I shouldn't know, but it doesn't matter, I'm already a lost dog." ”

"Why don't you go?" Gu Jiao asked.

Liu Yisheng laughed at himself: "Where are you going?" Chen Guo? In Zhaoguo, I was a lost dog, and it was the same when I went to Chen. ”

He had half of Zhaoguo's blood in his body, and in Chen Guo's eyes, he was not clean.

Gu Jiao didn't persuade again.

Everyone has their own life and their own choices, Gu Jiao put down the white cat and got up to say goodbye: "I'm leaving." ”

Liu Yisheng looked at the confused white cat on the ground and asked her, "You won't take the cat away?" ”

"You can raise it." Gu Jiao said, and before he could say that I don't have money to raise a cat, she took out a money bag and put it on the table, "Its food expenses." ”

With that, she stepped out of the courtyard.

Liu Yisheng didn't understand, he had been petting the cat for an hour, and he obviously liked it so much, why did he keep it here? With such a big medical hall, can't you keep a cat?

Of course, he was just wondering in his heart, and he wouldn't go to Gu Jiao to ask, he didn't even ask why Gu Jiao went to the palace to catch a cat, how could he ask this?

Some people, obviously not in deep relationships, can trust each other.

The white cat was stroked all afternoon, and suddenly no one stroked it, it was very lonely, jumped on Liu Yisheng's legs, and begged the tiger to touch it.

Liu Yisheng didn't have time to pet the cat, he ignored it and continued to rub the hemp rope.

"Do you know what happens if you don't catch the cat in time?"

It was Yuan Tang's voice.

Liu Yisheng looked back, and Yuan Tang actually came out of the hall, and it seemed that he came in through the back door.

Liu Yisheng frowned: "You haven't left yet?" ”

"Saying that you finally came to me, why don't I stay a little longer." Yuan Tang lay down on the rattan chair where he had been lying, played with the folding fan with one hand, and pillowed the other hand behind his head, and continued the topic, "If you don't catch this cat in time, the new champion will be hit by the cat, and the cat will startle the champion, and the champion will also startle the cat." In the end, the frightened cat will knock down Princess Ning who is passing by. Princess Ning is pregnant, and most of the children can't be saved. The champion of the new department, Princess Ning, and the owner of the cat, kill three birds with one stone, what a beautiful strategy. ”

Gu Jiao was going to catch the cat, but Liu Yisheng was really simply catching the cat, he looked at Yuan Tang in confusion: "How do you know?" ”

Yuan Tang beckoned to the white cat.

The white cat jumped off the ground in disgust, and jumped on Yuantang's leg particularly reluctantly.

Yuan Tang stroked it and said, "Because this is my cat, someone tricked my cat away with dried fish." ”

As he spoke, he picked up the white cat and said coldly, "You stupid thing, you almost hurt me, next time you will be abducted so easily, don't blame me for stewing you into a pot of cat meat!" ”

Gu Jiao's dream was only related to Xiao Liulang, and she didn't see the fate of the white cat and its owner.

"Meow~" The white cat squealed weakly.

Yuan Tang poked the white cat's belly, the cat was weak-hearted, and obediently poked: "Shouldn't you be more curious about how the girl knows than if you are curious about how I know?" I guessed it afterwards based on the situation at the scene, but the girl seemed to have expected it early on. ”

Liu Yisheng didn't know what to think, and suddenly fell silent.

Yuan Tang smiled mysteriously: "Do you want me to check that girl?" ”

Liu Yisheng said with a straight face: "You'd better not to." ”

Yuan Tang asked, "What?" Are you angry? ”

Liu Yisheng glanced at him strangely: "I have nothing to do with her, why am I angry?" But you go to check on her, in case it is exposed, it will cause her trouble, and she has helped you by mistake. ”

Yuan Tang thought for a while and nodded: "That's what I said." He looked at the sky, "It's getting late, I should really leave now, this is for you." ”

Yuan Tang took out a few silver tickets and put them on the table.

Liu Yisheng said without thinking: "Take it." ”

Yuan Tang had a toothache, he took a breath and looked at him puzzled: "You want the little girl to give you something, I'll give it to you, don't you want it?" I'd rather live a life without enough to eat, and never accept my relief, so I don't want to have anything to do with Chen Guo? ”

"Are you really going to give it to me?" Liu Yisheng looked at him and said.

"Hmm!" Yuan Tang nodded with wide eyes.

Liu Yisheng said: "Leave that cat behind, and take it away." ”

Yuan Tang: "......"

Yuan Tang finally took the silver ticket away, because he knew that Liu Yisheng said no, so he would really rather throw it away than ask for it.

White cat he left.

After everyone was far away, Liu Yisheng put the cat on the table, and at the same time, his eyes fell on the money bag.

He hesitated, picked up the money bag, opened it, and found that it contained not only a few ingots of silver, but also three hairpins.

East Palace.

Xiao Liulang met the crown prince.

The prince looked at the young man in front of him dressed in the Scarlet Jin Mansion, and was stunned, and he didn't speak for a long time.

He stood up, walked in front of Xiao Liulang, walked around him, and looked at every strand of his hair up and down.

I don't know how long he looked, he finally found his voice: "You, you are the new champion?" The candidate with the surname Xiao? ”

"Yes." Xiao Liulang said without squinting.

Compared with the prince's calmness, he seems much calmer, after all, it is not the first day to enter Beijing, some things have to be faced sooner or later, countless nights of tossing and turning, he has imagined many times, and he has already learned to be calm.

The crown prince returned to his throne in disbelief, staring at the face that was so similar to the one in his memory, opened his mouth, and said, "What's your name?" ”

"Xiao Liulang."

"How can it be called such a simple name?"

Xiao Liulang said: "The elders in the family are illiterate, and I was born in the sixth year of junior high school, so I was called Liulang." ”

The prince asked suspiciously, "You said that your birthday is the sixth day of the first month?" How many months? ”

Xiao Liulang said: "November." ”

"Cousin is Chinese New Year's Eve......," the prince muttered, pinching his fingers, his gaze falling on his crutches and legs, "what's the matter with your legs?" ”

Xiao Liulang: "I was injured a year or two ago. ”

Prince: "Is it all better?" ”

Xiao Liulang: "I don't know. ”

It's not so perfect to be a cripple, the prince cleared his throat and said, "What do you have to do with the Xuanping Marquis Mansion?" ”

"It's okay." Xiao Liulang said lightly.

Not like my cousin, not at all.

The cousin is not so indifferent, the cousin respects him very much, and he always looks very happy when he sees him, and the cousin smiles very warmly, unlike this guy who is cold all over his body.

This is this face is really too similar, seeing him as if his cousin has come to life, the only thing missing is the tear mole under the right eye.

The prince's face was a little pale.

Huang Gonggong whispered: "Your Highness, are you okay?" Or...... The slave took Xiao Zhuangyuan down first? You will call him for questioning another day. ”

The prince waved his hand, motioned for Gonggong Huang to step back, looked at Xiao Liulang again and said, "Do you like to eat chestnuts?" ”

"I like it." Xiao Liulang said.

Cousin didn't like it.

The prince said again: "Do you eat spicy?" ”

Xiao Liulang said: "Eat." ”

The prince gestured to the palace people, and the palace people brought a bowl of spicy meat shop.

Xiao Liulang glanced at the butcher shops sprinkled with spicy seeds, without raising his eyelids, he picked up a small piece from Ruyu's slender fingertips and ate it slowly.

The prince looked at him for a moment, not letting go of any of his reactions.

My cousin can't eat spicy, and he will stick out his tongue at all, and a butcher at this level must choke his face red.

However, Xiao Liulang ate very easily.

The prince couldn't say why he was relieved.

Xiao Liulang left the palace.

The twilight is boundless, and the imperial city is shrouded in a warm orange sunset.

Liu Quan's carriage stopped near the palace, Xiao Liulang walked over on crutches, he just got into the carriage and found Gu Jiao sitting in the carriage waiting for him.

Gu Jiao leaned against the wall of the car, her eyes slightly closed, as if she was asleep, a little quiet, and a little well-behaved.

Xiao Liulang's gaze swept over her soft lips intentionally or unintentionally, and his Adam's apple rolled a little, and he hurriedly looked away and got into the carriage.

The carriage shook slightly, Gu Jiao woke up, she opened her eyes, saw him, and her eyes suddenly lit up: "You are here." ”

"Hmm." Xiao Liulang sat down on the bench opposite her.

Liu Quan waved his horsewhip, and the wheel of the car turned.

When the old sacrificial wine first bought this carriage, he didn't think that it would be used by a second person, so there was not much space, and the two sat in the carriage, and the breath quickly penetrated and entangled.

It was a really hot day at the end of April.

Xiao Liulang thought to himself.

"Last night...... I drank too much. He said.

"Hmm." Gu Jiao didn't care.

Xiao Liulang froze: "Not in the future." ”

"Huh?" Gu Jiao looked at him puzzled.

Xiao Liulang didn't look at her eyes, but just clenched the fist on his lap, and said, "I won't drink too much...... That's for you. ”

"Oh." Gu Jiao was lost.

Looking at a trace of loss passing through her eyes, somehow, Xiao Liulang's head was hot: "It will be when I am awake." ”

Gu Jiao: "Huh? ”

Xiao Liulang was stunned after speaking, he swore that he didn't mean to say that! He was going to tell her that he would no longer be sober and make any Meng Lang's frivolous actions to her, but the words were all on his lips, how did it become another sentence?

Will be awake.

Is this what people say?

It's too Meng Lang, it's really a vain reading the book of sages!

Xiao Liulang's face suddenly turned red, and he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.

"I ...... I didn't mean that, I ...... I don't mean to ......" Xiao Liulang really couldn't say those two words.

Gu Jiao said for him: "Don't you want to kiss?" ”

Xiao Liulang was embarrassed: "Hmm." ”

Gu Jiao thought for a while and said to her fingers, "Is that to sleep?" ”

"Hmm." Xiao Liulang's tiger body was shocked, and he shook his head violently, "No! ”
