Li Jiu felt a chill on his back, turned his head suddenly, regained his cold expression, held the hilt of the sword in his hand, and looked around vigilantly. But everything was as usual, nothing unusual happened.

When he turned around, he didn't notice that his shadow quietly deepened, and his blink of an eye returned to its original state.

When I walked into the front yard, I heard a clear and high male voice.

"Third brother, just let me go in front of Brother Yue! Just pretend you haven't seen me at the General's Mansion! When I go back, I will help me say hello to my mother, and as for my father, I will ask you to help me say more good things. ”

"It's my father who wants me to take you home."

"Home? The palace is also considered home, huh? If Brother Yue hadn't let me out last night, I would have rushed into the palace a long time ago! Third brother, I really didn't say you, how could you let Sister Jingyao go! It's good now, but I don't know if it's the Year of the Monkey. ”

"You... You won't see her again. ”

"What do you mean by that? We met outside the palace before, but we agreed to play polo together, and we will go hunting together during the autumn hunt. ”

The rain was pouring outside the house, and Xiao Chuhong and Su Zhen vaguely heard their conversation.

They handed the umbrella to the servant, cleaned the mud from their boots, and followed the butler into the house. The furnishings inside are elegant and chic, most of them are made of high-quality rosewood, no incense, and the natural fragrance of sandalwood is permeated all around.

"Mother, we're back."

Xiao Chuhong held Su Hao's hand and didn't let go, and Su Zhen quietly raised her eyes......

I saw Shang Yuchen wearing an ink-colored robe sitting at the top of the seat, and a woman in white sitting beside him.

She wore a white and blue stand-up collar and a short-sleeved horse-faced skirt with delicate orchids embroidered on the neckline and spacious blue hem. Fairy and jade, wind and rain sideburns, has a unique charm that is difficult to explain. The royal blue tassel hairpin with blue jade earrings makes her skin like white jade, forgetting the dust.

In the first place under Shang Yuchen, in addition to Gu Yunshu, there was also a young man in a brown cloth coat. He was playing with the teacup in his hand, and he was full of ruffians, even more so than Su Zhen. The contours of the facial features are not as good as their Luo Qi, the eye sockets are deep, and the cheekbones are high. His hair is short and tied up with a brown headband at the back of his head. Around his waist was a piece of animal skin, and a black tiger-shaped jade pendant was tied around his waist.

Su Zhen withdrew her hand and shook her head, "Su Zhen has seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness King Jing, and Mrs. Xiao. ”

"You're welcome, sit down." Shang Yuchen smiled familiarly and raised his hand to signal them to take their seats.

"Your Highness."

Su Zhen had no restraint on her face, and her demeanor naturally fell on Xiao Chuhong's side.

"I know you! I've seen your portrait in Brother Yue's study! But it doesn't look like it, it feels like it was a few years ago. ”

As soon as Shang Dujing's words came out, everyone's faces changed.

Shang Yuchen and Gu Yunshu stared at Xiao Chuhong suspiciously, it turned out that he had long had a bad heart for Su Zhen, and he had been pretending to be a gentleman.

Lu Jingshu had never been to Xiao Chuhong's study, so naturally she didn't know what he was hiding, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but look at Su Zhen a few more times.

Su Hao couldn't hold back a smile, "Your Highness has a really good memory, but the person in the painting may not be a lower official." ”

"No, no, no! It's hanging on the wall, don't believe it! ”

"Ahem!" Shang Yuchen coughed dryly, wanting to remind Shang Dujing, but who knew that he was coming.

He half-squatted in front of Su Zhen and grinned, "Although I have only been in Beijing for two days, I have heard a lot of your deeds. Those people are purely brainless, they don't want to make a fortune all day long, they only chew their tongues behind other people's backs. Those foul words, you can just listen to them, don't mind, don't go to your heart! ”

"Your Highness thinks Xia Guan is a good person?"

Su Zhen was a little surprised, it was the first time someone comforted her because she was scolded.

"Don't you always be a highness, your majesty, just call me twilight, I... I am two years older than you, and I will call you with my third brother. ”

"No way!"

"No!"

Shang Dujing's temperament is more familiar than Tang Yinchen, but as soon as his words came to an end, he was rejected by Xiao Chuhong and Shang Yuchen.

"What are you doing? Just force me to go back to the palace all day long, and you are not happy to make a friend! ”

Shang Yuchen was angry and funny in his heart, and said helplessly to Lu Jingshu, "Madam, don't mind, he has lived outside the palace for a long time and is not familiar with the rules of the palace, don't take it to heart." ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said with a smile, His Royal Highness King Jing, this child has been in the house for two days, and the general's mansion is a little more vibrant.

Shang Dujing smiled without hesitation to show a mouthful of big white teeth, and his hearty laughter sounded even more pleasant, he got up from Su Hao's side, trotted behind Lu Jingshu, lightly clenched his fist and slapped her shoulder a few times, and began to squeeze her shoulder skillfully.

"Madam, you see that it is still raining outside, my third brother has to take me away, why don't you take me in for another two days? and Zhen'er, inform the Taifu Mansion and let him stay for a few days, just to be lively together. ”

"His Royal Highness likes the General's Mansion, and the concubine is naturally happy, but the emperor summoned you to the palace, and the concubine did not dare to stop it. If you stay in the palace for a few days, if you feel bored, you can come back. ”

"Really?" Shang Dujing's eyes lit up, "Madam, you are beautiful and kind!" Some people who have no conscience are really incomparable. ”

The few people he meant didn't care about his awkward thoughts at all.

Shang Yuchen said helplessly, "If I really want to force you, I have already led the forbidden army into the palace, so why should I persuade you with kind words." ”

"Don't listen, don't listen! Anyway, third brother, you have changed, you are in the same group as your father, you don't love me anymore! Eh, by the way, you haven't finished your words yet, what's wrong with Sister Jingyao? Where did she go to the mountains and rivers again? I can't even catch up with the autumn hunt! It can't be some kind of deep mountain and old forest, right? Really! You won't even bring me with you! That's too much! ”

Shang Dujing Balabala said a lot, and several people who listened to it were full of black lines.

"Your Royal Highness King Jing, you probably don't know yet, princess... He set himself on fire in Huanyu Mountain last night. Gu Yunshu's voice pretended to be heavy.

Shang Dujing's smile finally froze, "Master Gu." You, you, you... What did you say? ”

"Xiaguan said, princess, she ......"

"She's dead? You're talking nonsense, aren't you? In order to trick me into returning to the palace, how can you deceive people about the death of people! It's too much! Third brother, you say! Master Gu is lying to me, isn't it! ”

Shang Yuchen didn't mean to joke with him on his face, and told him the answer in silence.

"How is this possible? There is no sadness on the faces of any of you! You must be lying to me! ”

"Twilight, it's true." Goodwill Chen Road.

"I don't believe it! What about corpses! I want to see Sister Jingyao's corpse! ”
