Chapter 397: Pei Lian's gossip
Cui Tao didn't need her answer, she just needed someone to talk, and said to herself: "Your Highness has never been close to women before, but this time she actually carried that girl into the mansion in public, it can be seen that Your Highness likes that girl very much, is there going to be a female master in the mansion soon?" ”
"You guessed right."
"Really?" The guess was agreed, and Cui Mo was very proud, but in the next second, her face changed, because she realized that it was not Hongxiang who spoke just now, but a man.
Hongxiang next to him had already knelt down, "Your Highness." ”
Finished! Cui Mo hurriedly knelt down, worried in her heart, talking about Her Highness behind her back, but she was caught by Her Highness in person, will Your Highness drive her out?
The more she thought about it, the more scared she became, and the more she thought about it, the more she regretted it.
Pei Lian: "Get up." Because the maid's guess was very much to his liking, he was not angry.
The two maids got up, their heads buried low, and they didn't dare to look at his face.
Xue Wu smiled: "Cui Moss, aren't you curious about who I am?" Don't you look up? ”
Cui Mo subconsciously looked up, and saw a particularly good-looking girl standing next to His Royal Highness, how beautiful it was, she couldn't describe it, she only felt that all the princess ladies she had seen before were not as good as her.
Could she be the girl His Highness brought back?
Seeing the little maid staring at herself, Xue Wan smiled, "My name is Xue Wu, you can call me Miss Xue." ”
Cui Tao was stunned and said: "Miss Xue, you are so good-looking, as good-looking as Your Highness." ”
Who doesn't love to be complimented? This maid's such a straightforward praise made Xue Wu's heart bloom, "Thank you." ”
Pei Lin also felt that this maid was quite good at talking.
Hongxiang pulled the green moss and retreated, not disturbing His Highness and Miss Xue to talk.
However, Xue Wu didn't plan to stay in Pei Lin longer, "Okay, I've arrived, you can go back." ”
"Someone came to me for something." Pei Lin held Xue Wan's hand and said reluctantly.
"Okay, I know, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should go back quickly."
"Little has no conscience." Pei Lin pinched her face.
After Pei Lin left, as soon as Xue Wu turned around, she saw two maids staring at her in shock.
She thought of what Cui Moss said before that Pei Lin was never close to women, so she knew why they had such expressions.
Everyone has a past, even if Pei Lin has had a leg with a woman in the past, she shouldn't hold on to it, after all, the past is in the past, what's the point of holding on?
In this environment where a man can have three wives and four concubines, it is too harsh to ask a man to be clean and self-conscious, not to mention that Pei Lin is still the prince, with his status and that face, it is normal to have a woman.
But now that she learned that Pei Lian had never been close to women, she was inevitably in a very comfortable mood.
"Cui Moss, you said that your Highness never gets close to women, is it true?"
"It's true! Miss Xue, His Royal Highness's backyard is still empty, and there is not a single woman. Once His Royal Highness led the army back to the court, I don't know how many women on the street were shocked by His Highness, and the champa brocade flowers thrown at him could open several shops, but His Royal Highness did not accept the same.
"Also, once the young lady of the Marquis of Changyang Mansion confessed to His Highness that she wanted to marry His Royal Highness as the crown princess, and she also wanted to ask the Queen Mother to give her a marriage, but she was rejected by Her Royal Highness......"
Speaking of these things, Cui Tao is like a treasure, which makes Xue Wan listen to a lot of Pei Lian's gossip.
Before I knew it, an hour had passed.
Xue Wu is still a little unsatisfied, but she still has something to do tonight, and she can't patronize and listen to gossip.
"Okay, it's not early, you don't have to keep vigil for me, go to sleep."
Xue Wu also turned around and walked upstairs.
"Miss Xue—" Cui Tao suddenly stopped her.
"Huh?" Xue Wu turned around on the steps.
Cui Moss wanted to speak and stopped, but did not ask in the end.
Xue Wan: "You want to ask Zhao Gongzi, right?" ”
"Yes, that's right! He still has something here, why did he leave all of a sudden......"
Sensing Cui Moss's shy eyes when she talked about Zhao Gongzi, Xue Wu couldn't cry or laugh a little, this Nizi shouldn't be the one who fell in love with her dressed as a man, right?
If that's the case, it's better to explain it clearly as soon as possible, otherwise let her misunderstand, what if the love is deeply rooted and can't extricate herself?
That's what she did.
"Zhao Gongzi, isn't it right here?" Xue Yu covered her face with her sleeves and slowly moved away, revealing the face of "Zhao Yu".
Cuimoss was stunned, "You...... What's going on? ”
Xue Wu said in a male voice: "This is an illusion, just a trick in the rivers and lakes." Okay, I'll go up, and you guys go to bed early. ”
Cui Moss lost her soul and fell into despair, she never expected that the plump Zhao Gongzi was actually pretended by Miss Xue.
However, Miss Xue really deserves to be the person His Royal Highness likes, whether she is pretending to be a man or a woman, she is so good-looking.
After learning the truth, Cui Mo was also melancholy and lost for a while, and quickly cleaned up her mood and gossiped with Hongxiang again.
"Hey, Hongxiang, are you asleep? I can't sleep. Miss Xue is really amazing, she has no flaws at all in pretending to be a man, if she doesn't say it, I don't even know ......"
"Well, awesome."
The night conversation between the two little maids Xue Wu naturally had no way of knowing, and at this moment she was in the space, looking at everything in front of her in amazement.
All the plants in the space seemed to have been injected with hormones, and they all grew like crazy, and even the grass on the ground grew to half a human height.
The aura was two or three times stronger than before.
And what surprised her the most was that a sycamore-like tree grew on the edge of the Spirit Lake, very tall and luxuriant, you can't see the top at a glance, the body of the tree is snow-white, smooth and delicate to the touch, just like jade.
The leaves are emerald gold, which is very gorgeous. The leaves are dotted with egg-sized fruits, still green.
Compared to the leaves of the trees, which were as fat as a washbasin, the fruits were so small that they could not be detected without looking closely.
When Xue Yu pressed her palm against the trunk of the tree, a stream of information was poured into her mind.
About this tree that came out of nowhere.
It is called phoenix head tree, and the legendary mythical beast phoenix likes to inhabit this kind of tree very much, but later with the disappearance of the phoenix, the phoenix head tree has also become a legend, and even people mistakenly think it is a fantasy thing.
The phoenix head tree is not just beautiful, it has a lot of functions.
The inside of the tree produces a red sap that is sweet and very filling.
The bark undergoes a series of intricate processes to weave into beautiful clothes, which are gentle and clean, warm in winter and cool in summer.
The fruit it produces is called "phoenix fruit", which can be used as alchemy and medicine, and of course it tastes good when eaten raw, but it is too tyrannical.
