"This girl is straightforward by nature," Jiang Linglong looked indifferent and persuaded Zhao Yingxi, "I don't value these empty things on weekdays." It doesn't matter. I'm embarrassed to take advantage of my mother, your elder. ”

"Ouch, what a strange boy you are." Zhao Yingxi put down the dishes and chopsticks, and said gently and kindly, "It's not like I don't care, it's similar to your mother." ”

"Niang Niang knows my mother?" Jiang Linglong's originally dark eyes suddenly had a little brightness, and she was a little happy to test Zhao Yingxi.

"How can you not recognize it." Zhao Yingxi patted the back of Jiang Linglong's hand, "It should be said that there is any powerful family in Gu who doesn't know your mother." She paused, and then added, "Only if she doesn't know anyone else." ”

"That ......"

"Shaohua wants to ask about your mother?"

Jiang Linglong did not shy away from it, for fear that Zhao Yingxi would regret it, she hurriedly nodded slightly, and asked directly, "My father said that my mother was calculated because of the dispute over the heir, can my mother know the reason?" ”

Zhao Yingxi didn't expect her to ask such a question, she was stunned for a moment, and then slowly bowed her head, her eyes became a little far-reaching, and she fell into a memory, and muttered, "The first time I met your father, it was the year when my father defeated Nanban and returned to the court to receive the reward......

It was a rainy summer.

I've just arrived.

Entering the palace and facing the saint are naturally not my turn. I just took the opportunity to come to Jinsui to see the prosperity of the royal capital.

I still remember that the streets were bustling with activity that day, and people were seen carrying lanterns everywhere. I sent someone to ask before I found out that it happened to be the Lantern Festival in Jinsui that day, and at night, everyone would put the toad lantern on the edge of the Wuyu Lake, which was regarded as a blessing, hoping that the toad would enter the water to eliminate the disease and take away the filth.

I've never been interested in blessing offerings. But he was also greedy for excitement, so he crowded into the crowd to see what the toad lantern looked like.

There was a drizzle in the sky that night, and it was not annoying to hit me, but it was ...... Drove away some of the summer heat.

But as I walked, I found that the crowd was unconsciously divided into two columns, and they all moved out of the middle of the street, as if someone was opening the way, but the spontaneous and natural feeling was like waiting for someone to come for a long time.

I followed the gaze of the crowd. I saw a pair of beautiful people on the Bian Qu Bridge in Jinsui.

I think the people were making way for those two. But they're on the bridge, and I can't really see it. I vaguely saw the man with his hair tied up higher than the woman, and the woman held the lamp in her arms and stretched out her hand to cover the flames on the wick. The two of them walked in the rain, sometimes whispering to the side, without an entourage behind them, and not in a hurry to put the lights to avoid the rain, looking at the past from afar, as if the rain line had outlined a misty outline around them. The two stood and stared at each other.

At this moment, there was movement behind the crowd, and I looked back with the crowd, only to hear someone hurrying to trample the water on the ground, and then I saw a figure running in front of me, seemingly holding an umbrella in his hand, and went straight to the Bian Qu Bridge.

[It's the Third Highness! ] 】

I heard an exclamation from someone in the crowd, and everyone knelt down in the rain.

I'm also on my knees. But I still can't help but be curious to look at it.

I saw that the third highness who was recognized rushed to the side of the pair of beautiful people, and held up an umbrella for the woman holding the lamp.

It turned out that he was so anxious, just to get her an umbrella.

The man with the bundled hair who had been with the woman did not avoid it, and the three of them seemed to laugh a few words and walked under the bridge.

Only then did I see that the woman was wearing a simple bun, a hosta diagonally inserted, and she was wearing ordinary plain clothes, but she looked like a goddess with a smile and a smile. Quiet, gentle, calm, and clear.

Later, I listened to the crowd and realized that the woman holding the lamp was your mother, the only daughter of Luo Qizhen's family who was the Taifu at the time, Luo Yiyi.

The man with the hair is your father, the fifth highness of the Yuange Wang Si Qin.

I couldn't resist my curiosity when I returned home, so I asked my father, and learned from him that the third and fifth highnesses were both daughters of the Yiluo family, but neither of them asked the king for a marriage. I think I'm waiting for Luo Nu to make a decision for herself.

Shaohua, do you know the order of your parents, how important is the words of the matchmaker in the marriage contract between men and women? But your mother can make the two princes wait for her willingly.

What a privilege for a woman. For Luo Qizhen, how much face has he gained?

When I first heard about it, I couldn't believe it. But when I think of that rainy night, your mother's surprise in my eyes, I think it is reasonable.

After my father got the title of King of Pingnan and received the title, I was able to stay in Jinsui and go to the Confucius Garden with the prince's brother to listen to the Taifu's lectures. I grew up in the southern battlefields, and I am not good at the theory of poetry and poetry. It is your mother who often helps me solve my homework worries, and at the same time carefully explains the places that I have failed to keep up with the master in class. After getting acquainted, I realized that she was about the same age as me.

That year, I had a close relationship with your mother, and we were like sisters. She taught me poetry, and I taught her the art of war, so I saw a lot with the Third Highness and the Fifth Highness, and they became familiar with each other.

The three highnesses, King Yuanjun and King Yuange, have always come side by side at the same time, and the two seem to not only have a deep brotherhood, but also have an unusual tacit understanding. It's as if one says the last sentence, and the other can say the next. One has just stepped on his feet, and the other knows where to go.

Once, the four of us went to the mountain to hunt at night, and met a group of jackals on the way, and the fifth highness left behind, and asked the third highness to take me and your mother to go down the mountain first to find the brocade guard to help. His Royal Highness did so, and took us to the foot of the mountain, but your mother suddenly changed her mind, and after saying that she had asked Her Highness to find Jinyiwei quickly, she immediately turned back and drilled into the forest, leaving only a sentence for her to help the king of Yuange, and disappeared into the dark mountain forest.

The Third Highness held a torch in his hand, and his face was stunned like I had never seen before. He stood still for a moment, then shoved the torch into my hand and told me to find help quickly, and then he went back to the forest.

Fortunately, not long after I left that day, I saw the city guards patrolling the mountain, and then the brocade guards poured out of the nest and began to search the mountain. I waited at the foot of the mountain, looking, looking at the torches scattered all over it, like strings of fire chains, and I kept looking forward to it.

In less than an hour, Jin Yiwei appeared with someone.

The two Highnesses have always been side by side.

The Third Highness supported the Fifth Highness, and the Fifth Highness held Luo Yiyi, who was injured in the leg, in his arms.

After that, a lot of things have changed.

The two highnesses seem to have another strange tacit understanding, and they no longer appear at the same time to talk to me and your mother or swim in the lake.

Later, the Third Highness did not come often.

After that, I heard the news that the king had given the king a marriage to the king of Yuange.

On the big day, I couldn't go there to congratulate me in person. At that time, there was another war in the south, and I went south with my father to fight the enemy.
