Chapter Twenty-Six: Traveling in the same car

The guard had to take out the file in his arms and said: "The subordinates are only on duty at the gate of the palace, and the young lady of the Bai master's family came in the rain to return the file left by her brother at home, but she is not allowed to enter the palace without an order. The subordinates were afraid that they would delay the important affairs of the adults, so they came in to run. ”

Ji Lingyun raised his eyebrows and asked, "Miss Bai?" So is she still in front of the palace gate? ”

Although the guards didn't know why King An asked like this, they still said truthfully: "Yes, she was still waiting at the palace gate to reply before the little one came in just now." ”

Ji Lingyun unconsciously smiled on his lips, patted the guard's shoulder in a good mood and said, "Since this is the case, then don't delay, go quickly." ”

After that, he walked out of the door briskly, and smiled at Gu Fang, who was waiting at the door: "Today's master is in a good mood, reward you for half a day's leisure, and you don't need a car or horse, let's play by yourself, just remember to come back for dinner." ”

Gu Fang was stunned for a while, and before he could react, Ji Lingyun thought about it for a while, took off the coat he had put on this morning to protect him from the cold, and then said with satisfaction: "Go, don't miss your master and me too much." ”

Gu Fang didn't understand what was going on, Ji Lingyun had already taken him and walked away. Thinking of Bai Yanran waiting at the door, Ji Lingyun couldn't help but feel a little faster, and when he arrived at the gate of the palace, he saw Bai Yanran's slender figure, and then he put away the smile on the corner of his mouth.

Seeing Ji Lingyun coming out of it, Bai Yanran was surprised at first, and then thought that his brother was on an errand under Ji Lingyun, and it was very common for him to come out of it, so he saluted respectfully.

"The courtiers have seen His Royal Highness King An."

Ji Lingyun nodded with a straight face, and said with a rather cold expression: "Miss Bai, this is here to find Master Bai?" Do you need this king to summon someone for you? ”

Although Bai Yanran felt that the identities between the two were very different, they should get along like this. But since he met Ji Lingyun several times since he was reborn, he has always been familiar and close, and now such a gap makes her feel a little lost.

"Thank you prince, the courtier just came to send something to my brother, and now that the thing has been sent in, there is no need to bother the prince."

Ji Lingyun nodded, then stood there without saying a word, and had no intention of leaving. As long as he stood here, Bai Yanran couldn't be calm and calm, and after waiting for a while, he still didn't see any movement, and he couldn't help muttering in his heart.

At this time, the kung fu guard had already returned from a trip to the Xianwen Academy, Bai Yanran was relieved to reply, and after thanking the guard, he hesitated slightly, and stepped forward to Ji Lingyun on the side and said, "The courtiers are in business, so they will retire first." ”

Ji Lingyun looked back at her, then at the carriage behind her, and said with a lonely expression: "This king is a little envious of Master Bai, and there is a sister like Miss Bai who braves the rain to deliver things." Although this king is a prince, there is not even a caring person in the house, and today I don't know if the carriage broke down on the way, I am afraid that I have to walk back in the rain. ”

Only then did Bai Yanran understand that he had been waiting for the carriage, his eyes were slightly condensed, and he said with a smile: "The prince said that he was joking, if he wants to come to the mansion, the people will come soon, and he will never let the prince walk back in the rain, the prince might as well wait a little longer." ”

She turned around and wanted to leave, but Ji Lingyun let out an exaggerated sigh again, and said: "Today's wind and rain are really cold, and I don't know if it will catch the wind and cold after waiting for a long time, it's really a headache." ”

Seeing that Bai Yanran's footsteps did not stop, he had to raise his voice and said: "The so-called grace of dripping water should be reciprocated by a spring, Miss Bai, don't you say?" ”

Bai Yanran finally had to stop, she turned to look at Ji Lingyun, took a deep breath, and said with a smile: "If the prince doesn't dislike the simple carriage, the courtiers are willing to give the prince a ride." ”

Ji Lingyun walked over with a smile and said, "I don't dislike it, of course I don't dislike it." ”

Seeing Ji Lingyun unceremoniously get into the carriage, Su Xin saw Bai Yanran stunned and didn't move, and couldn't help urging: "Miss? ”

Bai Yanran narrowed her eyes and got into the carriage.

The carriage departed, and the three people in the carriage sat opposite each other, and the atmosphere was a little dull. However, Ji Lingyun quickly broke the silence and said, "Recently, at the small banquet in Houfu, this king saw Miss Qi Family, why didn't he see Miss Bai going with him?" ”

Bai Yanran replied in a regular manner: "The little girl is only a shallow learner, how can she get into the eyes of the princess." ”

She said it tactfully, but in fact, with Bai Yanran's family background, the last time she was able to go to Houfu for a small banquet, it was stained with the light of the Qi family, how could she be cheeky and follow her every time.

Ji Lingyun said: "This is a modest word, Miss Bai played a good hand last time, but this king is still unforgettable." However, most of my aunt's small banquets are blind date banquets, and Miss Bai no longer goes to the banquet, could it be that she already has a good marriage? ”

As an outsider with no relatives and no reason, Ji Lingyun was actually a bit rude to ask, but since he asked so cheekily, Bai Yanran couldn't help but answer.

But Bai Yanran and Song Shiyang are just exchanging tokens now, after all, they have not officially engaged yet, and the girl's family is not easy to publicize everywhere, so she said: "There is no such thing, the prince has thought about it a lot." ”

In fact, Bai Yanran wanted to say that he was troublesome, but his identity was different, and some words had to be endured. Ji Lingyun seemed to hear the unfinished words in her words, and there was a little more smile in her eyes, and she had to inch in: "Is this really the case?" ”

Bai Yanran also narrowed her eyes slightly, and asked rhetorically: "It turns out that the prince has been diligent in participating in the small banquet of the Houfu recently. That's right, the prince is now at the age when he should get married, and he should choose a princess to take charge of the middle of the house. It's just that with the prince's temperament, I'm afraid this matter is not easy. ”

Ji Lingyun raised his eyebrows, and humbly asked, "What does Miss Bai mean by this?" ”

Bai Yanran also smiled and asked rhetorically, "Does the prince really not understand?" ”

Su Xin pinched a cold sweat on the side for the young lady to dare to mock the prince in person, and quietly tugged Bai Yanran's sleeve. Ji Lingyun nodded, but the smile in his eyes deepened, and he said leisurely: "Having said that, but now that Miss Bai is not married, and this king is not married, there are some things that should not be said too early." ”

Bai Yanran raised her head sharply and looked at Ji Lingyun through gritted teeth. Ji Lingyun smiled as before, and his expression was as usual, as if he had just said an ordinary greeting. Bai Yanran, who was angry, turned her head to look out the window, unwilling to talk to him.

happened to pass by Zhu Rouyun's burial father at this time, Bai Yanran saw a middle-aged man give her a piece of silver, and after saying something to Zhu Rouyun, he took her away. Ji Lingyun also looked at her when he saw her, and he was quite interested when he saw this: "Hey, is it the official family of the Third Emperor Brother's Mansion?" ”

Bai Yanran turned around in surprise and asked, "His Royal Highness King Jian?" ”

Ji Lingyun said: "It is indeed Steward He in the Three Emperor Brothers' Mansion, I think I bought it back to the mansion when I saw that girl looked good." Why, do you know that girl? ”

Bai Yanran shook her head and said indifferently: "It's just that I felt a little pitiful when I saw it when I came, and I didn't want her to go to His Royal Highness King Jian's mansion in the end." ”

Ji Lingyun pointed out meaningfully: "You look at people pitiful now, he may soar into the sky one day." ”

Bai Yanran knew in her heart that the reputation of King Jianwang was different from Ji Lingyun's, and there were flocks of warblers and swallows in the mansion, but they had always been very tight. But Bai Yanran had seen it with his own eyes after turning into a cat in his previous life, and he couldn't help but be lustful and liked to use some pickling methods between the beds, and sometimes he would kill people.

Zhu Rouyun failed to rely on her brother in this life but entered the Jianwang Mansion, for her, the glory and wealth there are a hundred times more than the Bai family, and it can be regarded as seeking benevolence. It's just that whether she can enjoy this glory and wealth depends on herself, after all, the road is her own choice.

After thinking about it, Bai Yanran breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, since this world has entered the Jianwang Mansion, she will never have anything to do with her brother anymore, and this matter is over.

She had just breathed a sigh of relief, when the road was slippery in the rain, and the carriage had run over something, and suddenly it jolted. Bai Yanran was already absent-minded and defenseless, and this shock, her body involuntarily tilted towards the opposite side, and threw herself straight into Ji Lingyun's arms.

Bai Yanran ran into Ji Lingyun's arms, her nose was filled with the familiar smell of Ji Lingyun's body, and suddenly she seemed to have returned to her previous life when she turned into a cat and was held in his arms, so she was slightly stunned before she came back to her senses and hurriedly retreated.

Sure enough, as soon as he looked up, he saw Ji Lingyun smiling, and he was really interested in teasing a cat.

"After careful calculation, this is the second time that Miss Bai has thrown her arms to this king. This king has always understood the amorous feelings, if he fulfills your wish, he will marry you as Princess An, how about it? ”

Bai Yanran had a smirk on her face, gritted her teeth and replied, "Not how." The prince is such a romantic person, why should he wronged himself? ”

Ji Lingyun likes to see her look like a cat with its paws up, and when she saw this, she became more and more energetic, waved her hand and said: "Hey, don't be wronged, Miss Bai is very smart and smart, marrying back will definitely be able to give the king a good feed in the house, so that the king has less to worry about, wouldn't it be happy." ”

Bai Yanran raised her eyebrows as she looked like him, and said with a smile: "If Your Highness really marries the courtiers back, I'm afraid that the lord of Mingzhu County will be able to demolish King An's mansion, and then the prince will not have to worry about the future, I'm afraid he will have to worry about himself." ”

Ji Lingyun didn't want her to even know about Gu Yueyao's pleasing to herself, so she was speechless for a while. Seeing her eyebrows and eyes crooked and smiling proudly, she couldn't help but touch her nose in embarrassment, and accidentally dropped a fluttering thing in her sleeve while waving her hand.

Ji Lingyun was stunned, and then was about to pick up the handkerchief on the ground, but Su Xin exclaimed with sharp eyes: "Ah, isn't this Miss's handkerchief?" ”

Bai Yanran didn't pay attention to it before, but now when she heard it, she took a closer look, and saw that it was really the handkerchief she had lost before, and she couldn't help but look for it at that time, but she didn't expect it to be here. I thought that it should have been the Spring Appreciation Banquet that fell in the back garden of the Houfu and was picked up by Ji Lingyun.

Ji Lingyun had already picked up the handkerchief and was about to put it in his sleeve, and when he heard the words, he was stunned, and then raised the handkerchief as a sudden realization.

"It turns out that this is Miss Bai's veil, and this king should have given it to someone, I don't want it to be Miss Bai. That's right, Miss Bai admitted in person last time that she had been secretly in love with this king for a long time, and it was understandable that she quietly gave this king a handkerchief. ”
