"Otherwise, it would be fine. Hahahaha-"

was originally talking about a serious matter, but Su Xiaozhou suddenly made himself laugh.

Li Hong has always been unsmiling, few people dare to talk to him, and she is the only one who can tell him a few brainless jokes to make him happy.

Generally speaking, his anger should have subsided at this point.

"What are you laughing at? This wound may leave a scar. ”

Li Hong was not infected by her happiness, and his expression was full of worry.

"It's okay, the doctor said there would be no scars."

After saying that, Su Xiaozhou suddenly felt that something was wrong. It was obviously herself who was hurt, but now she was comforting His Royal Highness the Prince, as if he was the one who was injured.

"You've got a thorn?" Li Hong asked suddenly.

Su Xiaozhou paused for a moment before he realized that he was talking about Li Yu, the guy with a very good name.

When it came to serious official business, she hurriedly replied: "Yes, General Li and his party have been brought into the city today, and Xue Yi from the Younei Mansion will accompany them. General Lee said he was going to ...... Take a break and then enter the palace for a pilgrimage. Early tomorrow morning, the minister will go out of the palace to pick him up. ”

Li Hong nodded, shook his head again, and said, "Don't worry, wait." ”

Su Xiaozhou was a little puzzled, since His Royal Highness arranged for her to pick her up, she should have a deep relationship with Li Yu, why didn't she rush to see her when she entered the capital?

"Copy the book, keep the account first, and then the palace will hand you an errand."

As soon as he heard that there was an errand, Su Xiaozhou immediately came to his senses.

"Look at him." Li Hong said.

"Who?!"

Su Xiaozhou was a little confused.

"Thorns."

"For ......"

When the words came to his mouth, Su Xiaozhou swallowed them back.

What she should know, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will know. If he didn't say it, she shouldn't have asked more. It's just that where is this Li Yu sacred? What is it that Your Highness is so cautious about? And what do you want from him?

"Yes, the minister must keep an eye on him. It's just that there are many trivial things to eat and live, what should you pay attention to? ”

"There's just one thing to figure out."

"Hmm-"

Su Xiaozhou's eyes widened with anticipation. What the hell is going to be a big deal?

"Find out who brought him back to Beijing."

"Huh?!"

Su Xiaozhou was dumbfounded-Li Yu himself wanted to know about this.

After thinking about it, even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince couldn't verify this matter, and it was really not an ordinary strangeness.

"The palace has checked, and there is no seal on the deposit of the Ministry of War, only Li Shangshu's handwritten record, and two words are remarked: holy will. Therefore, the one who summoned him back was either his father or his mother. It is necessary to know whose will it is, so that Hongu can see him with confidence. ”

Li Hong's solemn entrustment made Su Xiaozhou frightened for a while.

She was so well protected, like a flower in a greenhouse, and now she is drifting away from her former friends. can't be like Wang Zhao and them, fighting for His Royal Highness with guns and arrows, you can only be a bastard rice worm.

There is a difference between men and women after all, and she has done her best to live just by guarding her own secrets. Ten years ago, stealing the dragon and turning the phoenix into the East Palace, if the secret is exposed, the Su family may be difficult to preserve, and even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be implicated.

His Highness rarely talks to her about political affairs, but he can still sense the difficulties of his current situation from a few words.

His Majesty was severely dizzy, and the queen mother listened to the government for ten years, and the power of the party and relatives expanded. As a crown prince with no real power, if His Royal Highness does not try his best to fight for it, he may risk his life.

Born in the royal family, even if it is his own flesh and blood, he may become a lot of white bones on the road to the throne.

……

After finishing the matter, Li Hong suddenly smiled, took out a handful of lotus seeds from his sleeve pocket, and put them on the low table on the side, "These are for you, picked in the Taiye Pool in the afternoon." ”

"Your Highness."

Su Xiaozhou looked at him and smiled, and finally remembered that he had another use.

Li Hong leaned on her shoulder, twisted his fingers and whispered, "Xiaozhou, you are my only friend." I don't know how to be nice to you, so I can only give you everything I like. ”

Su Xiaozhou took a deep breath and pretended to be relaxed: "Thank you, Your Highness, I like it very much." I picked up a verdant lotus seed and prepared to peel it and taste it.

"Don't do it, hurt your nails, I'll peel them off."

"Look, you can't hurt such a short nail."

"That's not going to work either!" Li Hong sat up all of a sudden, grabbed her hand and looked at it carefully for a while.

"What's wrong?" Su Xiaozhou turned his head.

"Xiaozhou, you can put your nails on. Painted with Kodan, it must be extremely beautiful. Letting go of her hand, Li Hong said flatly while peeling off the lotus seeds.

Su Xiaozhou was startled by these words, what does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mean? She's a military general, what will she look like with her nails and Kodan?

Just as she was muttering, Li Hong had already taken the peeled lotus seeds to her heart, half of them and half of them were put on her hand, and then she jumped happily and rushed to rummage through her cabinet.

"Xiaozhou, did you buy the monofilament Biluo long skirt that I told you last time? And what about pomegranate flower shake and new color lipstick? His voice was light and pleasant, and he was like two people with His Highness.

Su Xiaozhou took a deep breath, raised his finger and said, "In the innermost pear box." ”

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the present day, in the most private occasions, does not seem to regard himself as a man - this is the first secret she has to keep until her death, and it is also the reason why she cannot leave the East Palace. Whoever knows such a secret will be trapped in the siege forever unless he dies.

"Thorn him...... Like you? Li Hong, who was holding a long skirt and gesturing on his body, suddenly turned around and asked.

"Huh?"

Faced with the sudden question, Su Xiaozhou pondered and replied: "It should be okay." I thought that he was going to be transferred to the East Palace to perform his duties, and he would be Lord Shangguan, so he greeted him quite thoughtfully. Even if he doesn't like it, at least he doesn't hate me. ”

Li Hong seemed quite satisfied, and said with a smile: "Li Yu is a very important person to this palace. So, I hope you can get along with him. ”

"Do you want to give him ......?"

Su Xiaozhou wanted to speak and stopped, wanting to ask if he wanted to prepare a settling-in allowance for Li Yu, but after thinking about it, His Royal Highness should not want to hear the news that his old friend needed help. Buying a house, with a few servants and maids, just a small amount of money, you can do it yourself, if you can gain Li Yu's trust, you can get it.

"The minister will see him tomorrow and see what he needs."

"You can do it yourself. He and Bengong are old acquaintances, you are a confidant of Bengong, and it is reasonable to move around more. ”

Li Hong put down his skirt and tied up his long hair again.

Su Xiaozhou thought it was very strange, he obviously liked bright dresses, hairpin jewelry, all kinds of rouge gouache and lipstick, but he had never worn a skirt on his body, tried gouache and lipstick, and only applied it on his arm to see the color.

Many times I tried to suggest that he try it, but she never said it.

"Your Highness, why don't you try it on if you like it?" She finally mustered up her courage.

Li Hong glanced at her, and the joy on his face instantly receded, "A man is born with a strong body, neither the weak and slender of a girl, nor the grace and plumpness of a woman. No matter how beautiful the dress is, there is no beauty in wearing it, so what's the point? These dresses ...... Or are you dressed appropriately. ”
