Shen Zhongchen, as a male guest, stayed with several princes.

His status is low, and he can't interject when several princes speak.

Although he secretly took refuge in Lord Yan, with the Prince of Chu and Prince Peace, he could not show that he was familiar with Lord Yan in person.

Therefore, Shen Zhongchen followed behind several princes out of place, like a servant without a master, and was marginalized.

finally waited until the princes returned to their rooms to rest, and Shen Zhongchen was able to get out and find Fang Siqi.

But when they arrived at the house arranged for them, Fang Siqi was not there.

"What about Qiqi? Why aren't people there? Shen Zhongchen asked Lime and Cuckoo very nervously, "Didn't you let you follow her all the time?" ”

"As soon as the master arrived at the palace, he was dragged by Princess Xuanyi to ride a horse." Lime said, "The Queen won't let us follow..."

"And they're still riding?" Shen Zhongchen frowned, "It's time to eat soon, Princess Xuanyi is not tired?" ”

Lime shook her head, "The slave wanted to go out and inquire, but just now the queen sent two grandmothers over, saying that they were instructing me and the cuckoo to clean up, so I haven't been able to go out to find the master." ”

"Got it." Shen Zhongchen nodded with a solemn expression, "Be careful, I'll go out and look for it." ”

When Shen Zhongchen took Gengli to find Fang Siqi, Fang Siqi was cleaning up horse manure in the stinking stable with a broom, and there was a palace man guarding beside him.

"Qiqi, I'll come." Shen Zhongchen stepped forward and grabbed the broom, "You go to the side to rest." ”

Shen Zhongchen was distressed, his wife was very delicate, how could she do such rough work.

Seeing this, the palace people on the side said, "Miss Siqi, Princess Xuanyi has ordered, you must clean the stables yourself, and others are not allowed to help." ”

Shen Zhongchen hurriedly took out a silver ingot and stuffed it into the hands of the palace people, "Trouble you to be accommodating...

Gong Ren was a little hesitant on his face. It's not that this silver is so useful, it's really the impression that the queen favors Fang Siqi is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the palace people.

"You see, Siqi has been cleaning for so long to clean up so much, and Princess Xuanyi will ask after a while, you are not easy to deal with." Shen Zhongchen saw that the palace people's expressions were a little loose, so he continued, "I work fast, I will finish cleaning this place early, and you will go back early to hand over the errand, right?" ”

The palace man pinched the silver, "Okay then, hurry up!" ”

After the palace man accepted the money, he turned his back and pretended not to see anything.

Shen Zhongchen and Gengli moved very quickly, and cleaned the stable where Fang Siqi had been struggling for a long time in three or two clicks.

After finishing all the work, Shen Zhongchen came to Fang Siqi's side and asked in a whisper. "Princess Xuanyi did this to mean the queen's mother?"

Fang Siqi shook his head, "Old grudges..."

Shen Zhongchen put Fang Siqi's hand on his palm, "Look, your hands are almost worn out." The next time you encounter something like this, don't be so honest...... Stuff some silver into the palace people and let them help make it. ”

"What if the money doesn't work?"

"Then give a little more, if it doesn't work for ten taels, give a hundred taels, and if it doesn't work for a hundred taels, give a thousand taels." Shen Zhongchen gently rubbed Fang Siqi's reddened hands, "Like them, there is always a price." ”

"I know," Fang Siqi sighed, "I just don't want to give someone a handle as soon as I come." ”

Although these palace people are easy to buy, it will be easy to betray you.

"Don't think too much, things will pass." Shen Zhongchen could only comforted weakly, "Let's go back to eat first." ”

After Princess Xuanyi finished eating with the queen, she went to find Fang Siqi in the name of riding a horse.

"What about people?"

Xuanyi arrived at the stable, but there was no trace of Fang Siqi, so she asked the palace man who guarded Fang Siqi to clean the stable.

"Back to Princess Xuanyi's words. After Miss Siqi finished cleaning the stables, she saw that you had no other instructions, so she went back to rest. ”

"She's cleaned all the stables for such a big one?" Princess Xuanyi asked incredulously.

"It's done. Each room is very clean," replied the palace man, "the princess can send someone to inspect it." ”

"No one else helps, right?"

"No," the palace man shook his head, "no one has come to the stable during this time, and all the palace people here can testify." ”

Princess Xuanyi puffed out her face and stared at the palace people suspiciously.

The palace people calmly let Princess Xuanyi stare at it, not empty at all.

Princess Xuanyi knew that there must be something greasy in this, but she was still young, and she had nothing but the queen's favor, so she couldn't lose her temper.

So she could only leave angrily.

On the first day of arriving at the palace, perhaps because of the fatigue on the road, everyone rested after dinner.

When she was at night, Fang Siqi couldn't sleep over and over, I don't know why, her heart was panicked, and she always felt that something bad was about to happen.

finally survived until dawn, and early in the morning, the queen sent someone to call everyone over.

The reason is that the weather is good today, and the queen wants to let the prince of Chu and the prince of Ping take Princess Xuanyi to hunt in the forest, and ask Fang Siqi and the county lord of Qinghui to accompany them.

"Queen Mother, it's too boring just to hunt, why don't you let me compete with the fourth brother and the seventh brother?" Prince Ping suggested.

"That's fine." The queen mother nodded, "Then you will compete in groups, if anyone hunts more prey, this palace will fulfill the wish of the first place." ”

Prince Ping's face was overjoyed, "Erchen should do his best." ”

Seeing this, Prince Chu quipped, "Fifth brother, what wish does this have that must be fulfilled?" It's so full of fighting spirit, I was scared to see it. ”

"Fourth brother, don't make fun of the fifth brother," Yan Wang Ye sneered, "The fifth brother peacock has been open for a long time, and he has never been able to hold the beauty." It's hard to get a chance here, and he doesn't have to work hard to perform. ”

"Seventh brother, what are you talking about!" Prince Ping looked at Lord Yan unhappily.

"Let's be honest." Lord Yan responded cynically, "Fifth brother, others don't want to marry you, so don't force it." It's ugly. ”

"You ——!"

"All right," said the queen mother, lest they quarrel more and more fiercely, "let's go hunting." ”

The queen mother said again, "Since you want to compete, Xuanyi will not go with you." You are several of the same age, so let's divide into groups. ”

"Then the king of this book will be in a group with the lord of Qinghui." Before Prince Ping could speak, Lord Yan rushed to speak. "Fifth brother, you don't want to snatch someone from your younger brother, do you?"

"Seventh brother, what can't you rob?" Prince Ping gritted his teeth and said, "Let's rely on our own abilities to see who hunts more." ”

After Wang Ye Ping finished speaking, he left in a bad mood.

Fang Siqi and Shen Zhongchen stood quietly aside, but Xuanyuan Yi said to them with a smile, "Sister Siqi, it seems that you can only be in a group with me." ”

Can "......" be refused?

Xuanyuan Yi's expression was very happy, "I haven't seen Sister Siqi riding a horse for a long time, I miss it very much..."

The queen mother pretended not to care and glanced at the prince of Chu: This Xuanyuan Yi, could it be that she really misses Fang Siqi?
