Chapter 209: Reluctant Invitation

Mei Xiaoren stopped, stood on the steps and looked there a few more times, and someone around him was already approaching.

Jiang Rong put his hands behind his back, looked at the square in front of him, and sighed from the bottom of his heart: "Villain, you are really ...... today It's impressive! ”

Mei Xiaoren gave him a blank look and walked down the steps silently.

"Don't go, it's not easy to see you now, you haven't been to the palace yet, let's go, I'll show you around."

"Your Highness......" Mei Xiaoren was helpless.

On the square, Gu Chuyu thought a little as he walked, and at first he didn't notice anyone coming in front of him, until a troublesome "Brother Yu" floated into his ears that he raised his eyes, "Is there something wrong with the county lord?" ”

The county lord of Haoyang shook the hand she was holding with Ji Nanrou, and asked with a smile: "Brother Yu, you should be free today." ”

Wei Shuying on the side also smiled and said, "The county lord thinks too much, when has he been free." ”

Wei Shuying has been paying attention to where Brother Mei, who is in the spotlight today, and when he looked back, he found that there were two people pulling in front of the hall. He patted Gu Chuyu's arm and motioned for him to look behind.

Gu Chuyu turned around, just in time to see her struggling a few times, and then someone grabbed her wrist and took her away in the direction of the harem.

After this scene, Gu Chuyu no longer knew anyone, bypassed the people who were in the way, and walked towards the palace gate.

Although Ji Nanrou waited for her father to leave before following Haoyang, when Haoyang was there, she was usually very dignified and reserved, and never interjected.

She saw that Gu Chuyu was not a gift from her who wore a cloak, and she felt a little lost, and when Gu Chuyu left, she mustered up the courage to admonish: "It's been cold recently, senior brother remember to add clothes......"

Gu Chuyu didn't look back, but this sentence reminded him that he still had something to do.

Long corridors, high walls.

Jiang Rong took her for a stroll forward, guiding her to the nearby palace as she went.

Mei Xiaoren admired the majesty and luxury of the palace from the bottom of her heart, but she didn't like this place. The women here seem to have nothing to do with the word "freedom", and if they can't get out, they have to be bound by complicated rules.

She stopped and said, "It's not too early, I should go back." ”

Jiang Rong frowned, "Villain, my father and emperor have agreed to behead your people, are you still not happy?" ”

"No, I'm a foreign minister, it's not appropriate to enter and leave this place."

Jiang Ei's mind suddenly became a little heavy, and he asked slowly, "You don't like it here?" ”

She smiled deeply, "It doesn't matter if I like it or not, this place won't be my place." ”

"What if I want you to move in?"

Mei Xiaoren said softly in her ear, and she looked up at Jiang Rong inexplicably, but saw that he had a serious face.

Ei continued: "I mean, in the future, when I become the master of this place, I will take you ...... Pick it up ......"

Mei Xiaoren couldn't help laughing: "Are you stupid, did Your Majesty let your courtiers live in the palace together?" ”

She glanced at Jiang Rong again, turned around and walked back along the way she came, waving at him as she walked, "I'll go first, you can come to me directly if you have something in the future, don't worry about anything that doesn't have a thorn in your eye." ”

Jiang Rong stayed in place, her eyebrows tightened tighter and tighter, she meant that she was not afraid that the Prime Minister would regard her as a thorn in her side. Are you not afraid, or do you know that you won't?

As early as when he inadvertently saw Gu Chuyu's eyes looking at her, he already had a bold guess in his heart, he guessed that she and Gu Chuyu had known each other before, not only did they know each other, but Gu Chuyu also had other thoughts about her.

Gu Chuyu's eyes were not only appreciative, but even ...... There is also a similar amazement to his father when he watched his favorite concubine dance.

At the other end of the palace road, Ji Nanrou had separated from the county lord of Haoyang and walked to the inner garden of the deep palace with his maid.

"Miss, don't be discouraged, Xiangye will definitely not fall in love with the county lord of Haoyang."

"Also?" Ji Nanrou's cold gaze glanced at the servant girl beside her.

The maid hurriedly lowered her head, "The slave should die, the slave means that the master of Haoyang County looks down on him." ”

"But Haoyang is a little better than me." Ji Nanrou sighed with her eyes, "She is not a young lady from the Guogong Mansion. ”

The maidservant said cowardly: "Didn't Miss say before, as long as the master speaks, it is useless for the master to object." ”

Ji Nanrou laughed self-deprecatingly, "But senior brother, will he open this mouth?" How many years have he ever had me in his eyes? ”

"In the past, wasn't Miss out of the question, whether she wanted to send something, or it was not easy to see Xiangye, but now that she has a way, instead of sending something, it is better for Miss Xiangye to see the best side of Miss."

"The best side?" Ji Nanrou'e frowned slightly.

The maidservant smiled and leaned into Ji Nanrou's ear and whispered a few words to her. Ji Nanrou seemed to have just woken up from a dream, revealing a smile.

The maidservant girl said: "You still need to ask Mei Fu Cheng to help with this matter, only Mei Fu Cheng can invite the minister." ”

"That'...... When? ”

"Naturally, the sooner the better, after a few days is the New Year's Day, the old man will accompany the old lady to the temple to incense on the first day of the new year, and as usual he will live in the temple for a few days, the young lady can be called sick, and then the day will be set on the first day of the new year, when the old man is not there, there will be no mistakes."

Ji Nanrou nodded.

"Miss, don't miss the opportunity." The maid pushed Ji Nanrou's arm, and in a blink of an eye, she saw a person walking in front of her, and became more and more pleased, "Miss, look, Mei Fucheng is actually here, this must be a hint from God to Miss, implying that Miss will definitely be able to succeed." ”

"It's really rare to meet Mei Fucheng in the harem." Ji Nanrou smiled like a flower, telling her how she didn't believe that this was providence.

Mei Xiaoren also saw Ji Nanrou, she left the palace, and Ji Nanrou entered the palace. She was walking towards her, smiling like a flower, and she didn't know what was going on.

She couldn't help but slow down, and saluted when she approached: "Miss Ji." ”

Ji Nanrou said: "Meifu Cheng doesn't have to be polite, I didn't expect to meet you here." ”

"His Royal Highness King Yu let me go with him."

"I see." Ji Nanrou asked again, "By the way, the cloak before ......"

"At Xiangye's." Mei Xiaoren said slowly, since Ji Nanrou can ask like this, it means that Chu Yu has not returned it yet, or has been used for other purposes.

Ji Nanrou sighed lightly: "Alas, some gossip has come out of nowhere recently, saying that you and your senior brother have known each other for a long time, and my father also asked me about this, asking if you and the two senior brothers have known each other in the academy." ”

"Is there such a thing?" Mei Xiaoren frowned.

Ji Nanrou said with a smile: "But don't worry, I'll round it for you, and my father doesn't have any suspicions about you now." ”

Mei Xiaoren arched his hand: "Thank you, Miss Ji." ”

"No need to thank you, you helped me, and I should help you." Ji Nanrou said again, "I have another reluctant request. ”

Mei Xiaoren "chuckled" in her heart, and she knew what Ji Nanrou said earlier...... With a purpose.
