Returning to the Splendid Garden from Suhua Palace with shock, Liu Shu fell asleep dizzily.

She had a cold, fell ill for several days, and slept for a long, long time every day, as if she could forget the rumors she had overheard at the gate of Suhua Palace in the quiet afternoon after waking up. But when she got better, she didn't forget it.

Liu Jing came to see her several times, but never saw her each time. Aunt Adie always said: "The princess is really sick, Your Highness should wait for her to get better before coming." ”

On this day, Liu Jing came again, and Aunt Adie finally let him in to find Liu Shu.

He saw Shu'er sitting alone by the window in a daze, with a small round face that had lost weight, and he couldn't help but feel distressed, and softly knocked on the door and said, "Shu'er, I'm coming to see you." ”

Liu Shu turned his head to look at Liu Jing, although he hadn't changed, he seemed to be a little stranger.

Liu Jing sat opposite Liu Shu and asked with concern, "Are you all well abided by the wind and cold?" It's Ling Fei's eighth birthday in a few days, let's go to Ling Mansion to celebrate him, okay? ”

Liu Shu nodded and said, "The wind chill has already healed." When you go to Ling Mansion, call me at any time. ”

Lin Long came in with a plate of fruits, saluted Liu Jing, and said, "Your Highness, Shu'er, you eat some melons and fruits." ”

Liu Jing also returned to Lin Long a courtesy from a junior to an elder, Lin Long felt that Liu Jing was a good boy, although he was on the throne, he never lost the courtesy of his juniors, and he had always favored Liu Shu. Liu Shu ran out to play, because this brother was there, Lin Long was a little less worried.

Liu Jing asked respectfully: "Aunt Lin, I am telling Shu'er that in a few days it will be the birthday banquet of my personal guard Ling Fei, and it will be held in the mansion of Lord Ling Mo of the Jade Capital. Ling Fei, the guard, was chosen by Shu'er for me, so I want to take Shu'er to Ling's Mansion with me, I don't know if it's okay? ”

Lin Long replied with a smile: "It's okay to let Shu'er go out of the palace to relax, she has been sick for so many days, and she finally gets better, so she has to go out for activities." I heard that Ling Da is brilliant and a good official who dares to admonish, His Royal Highness and Ling Fei are inseparable, and he should go to Ling Mansion to celebrate his birthday. When you all grow up, there will be fewer and fewer opportunities to hang out and play together. ”

Liu Jing saw Aunt Lin so happily let her go, and said happily: "Thank you Aunt Lin!" Besides, Shu'er has never been out of the White Jade Palace, and we just happened to take her out of the palace to see the world. ”

Lin Long instructed: "Just don't let her get into trouble." ”

Liu Jing ate a few mouthfuls of melons and fruits, and saw that Liu Shu had not spoken much, thinking that she was still unwell, so he said goodbye first: "Shu'er, you have a good rest these days, wait for me to pick you up in a few days, let's go to Ling Fei's house to play together." ”

Liu Shu nodded absentmindedly.

Three days later, Liu Jing sent someone to send a message to Liu Shu, saying that he would first go to greet his grandmother after going down to the court, and then come to pick her up and go to Lingfu together. Liu Shu'an couldn't bear the curiosity in his heart, so he hurriedly said goodbye to his mother and ran to the Jinghe Hall of the Empress Dowager. She wanted to know, but she didn't dare to ask anyone if her grandmother killed Xiao Yi, and whether she was her father's daughter......

In Jinghe Palace, Qiao Feng, Qiao Jing, and Liu Jing were drinking tea and eating snacks, and Ling Fei was also standing aside. Liu Shu panted and ran in to salute. Qiao Feng and Qiao Jing were both shocked, because Liu Shu had never run into Jinghe Hall alone. Liu Jing was overjoyed, as if she saw her sister who was jumping as usual again.

Liu Shu was about to ask abruptly, but he was too timid to be too reckless. After all, the "grandmother" and "queen mother" in front of her may not only not be her blood relatives, but may even be her mother-killing enemies.

Liu Jing noticed her sister's doubts, and after recovering from a long illness, she seemed to have lost her old smile, always absent-minded, or confused. He thought that maybe his sister still cared about the fact that her biological mother was not her mother. Liu Jing beckoned to Liu Shu and said, "Come over and have a snack!" ”

Liu Shu didn't seem to hear it, just looked at Qiao Feng and Qiao Jing in a daze.

Liu Jing got up and ran over and pulled Liu Shu's sleeve and said, "What's wrong with you?" Did you have a fever the other day? Say hello to grandma and queen mother. ”

Liu Shu muttered quietly: "Grandma? Queen mother? Still staring at Qiao Feng and Qiao Jing.

Liu Jing saw that Liu Shu was nervous, so he quickly pulled her to kneel down and said, "Shu'er has just recovered from a serious illness, and she may really be stupid, don't mind grandma and queen mother." ”

Liu Shu came back to his senses, and although he knelt down, he stood up suddenly, turned his head and ran out of Jinghe Palace. Leaving Liu Jing to stand there for some reason.

Qiao Jing and Qiao Feng glanced at each other, as if they sensed something.

In the afternoon, Liu Jing took Ling Fei to the Splendid Garden to pick up Liu Shu and go out of the palace to Ling's mansion. There are more than 30 people accompanying the guards and palace people, not counting the people who secretly protect them. Liu Jing asked Liu Shu several times why he suddenly ran to Jinghe Hall today, Liu Shu felt that there were many people around him, and they squeaked and whimpered to talk about him, Liu Jing couldn't ask why, but he knew that his sister must have something on his mind recently. When I arrived at the Ling Mansion in a while, I must find an opportunity to ask my sister alone.

Ling's mansion is not big, but it is full of lights and is very festive. Ling Fei's father, Ling Mo, was thin and elegant, and his mother, Mrs. Ling, was also dignified and delicate. There was still some time before dinner, Liu Jing and Lord Ling talked to Mrs. Ling for a while, and then asked Ling Fei if he could go to his house to see his collection of gadgets. Ling Fei took Liu Jing and Liu Shu to his backyard, leaving the Ling couple in the front hall to prepare dinner.

Liu Jing asked Ling Fei in a low voice, "Is there a back door in your backyard?" It's still a while before dinner, should we go shopping on the streets? ”

Ling Fei said worriedly: "Yes, yes, but His Royal Highness didn't tell him to go to the street before leaving the palace, and he went to shop temporarily, I'm afraid it's not safe, right?" ”

Liu Jing said: "What are you afraid of? You Ling Fei is strong in martial arts, my Liu Jing is not bad, my sister can also use a little fist and kick. Besides, we are just three children, just going to the streets, and there is no war, how can there be any danger? Seeing that Ling Fei hesitated and didn't give directions, Liu Jing said, "You are my personal guard, so you must obey my orders!" Lead the way, if you don't go, you won't have time to shop! ”

Ling Fei was still hesitant, Liu Jing winked at Liu Shu and said, "Shu'er, do you want to go shopping outside on the streets?" Buying you something delicious and fun? Your brother Ling has a lot of money on him, so how about he take us out to buy some gadgets that don't have in the palace? ”

Liu Shu has never been out of the White Jade Palace, nor has he seen the prosperity of the streets of the Jade Capital. finally came out for a trip, and she really wanted to go and see, so she responded to her brother's tone and begged Ling Fei: "Brother Ling, I have never been out of the White Jade Palace, and there will be fewer and fewer opportunities to come out to play in the future, so you can take us out for a walk!" Brother Ling, I promise to follow you obediently, let's just come back before dinner! ”

Ling Fei couldn't twist the kindness and power of the two brothers and sisters, especially the little princess couldn't stand the big eyes of the little princess, one by one, "Brother Ling", and called herself sweetly. He felt that he couldn't afford to listen to a word more, so he gritted his teeth: "Let's go, follow me." ”
