Guo Xinyue, who thought she was going to fall, did not feel the pain she imagined, but someone caught her.

She looked back in surprise and found that it was the third prince Rong Qi who was holding her!

She suddenly stood up from Rong Qi's arms, took two steps back, and stammered a little: "Palace...... Your Highness. ”

The third prince glanced suspiciously at the fish in her hand.

Guo Xinyue realized that she was still holding a koi fish in her hand that was trying to break free, and she hurriedly explained: "Your Highness, it's not...... It's not the fish I caught!"

Saying that, she stuffed the fish in her hand directly into Rong Qi's hand, Rong Qi was slightly stunned, and was stunned by her actions.

The koi fish was still struggling, and suddenly broke free from the restraints, jumped up directly, fell to the ground, and jumped again, and fell directly back into the lake.

Guo Xinyue reacted to the stupid act she made, and she couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into!

What the hell is she doing!

Rong Qi couldn't help laughing, it was the first time he had seen such a stupid girl, seeing her couldn't help but be annoyed, it was so cute, the dissatisfaction of being squeezed by the second prince just now was swept away.

Guo Xinyue explained again: "I'm sorry, the courtier didn't mean it! Just now the courtier was feeding the fish here, and then a fish jumped up on its own. ”

Rong Qi nodded, as if believing her explanation.

In fact, he had already seen her feeding the fish by the lake, and he still remembered Guo Xinyue, the daughter of Guo Qichun, who had been transferred to Guo Qichun, and had seen her with Ji Yanning in the Ren'an County Lord's Mansion last time.

He gestured a few times, and the little eunuch next to him said, "Your Highness asked why you are here?"

Guo Xinyue lowered her head and replied: "After drinking a few glasses of wine, I was a little drunk and planned to come out to sober up." ”

Rong Qi raised his eyebrows slightly, because all the women invited to the palace banquet this time were women, the hospitality should be fruit wine, and I think I shouldn't be drunk.

He didn't debunk Guo Xinyue's words, and made a few more gestures. The little eunuch beside him said, "Your Highness asked you, what talent have you prepared today?"

Guo Xinyue's face flushed with a weak heart, and she said truthfully: "Actually, there are songs to prepare, there are so many girls with good family backgrounds who are competing to perform their talents, and the courtiers don't plan to be ugly." ”

In fact, she has learned the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, if she impromptu to stroke the qin, she is not afraid, but Zhuyu is in front, there are so many people who have already performed their talents, why should she go to join in the fun.

The little eunuch beside Rong Qi was slightly stunned when he saw his master gesturing again, and then came back to his senses and said, "Your Highness asked you if you dislike him for having a dumb disease, so you don't want to be elected as the princess?"

"No!" Guo Xinyue hurriedly waved her hand and explained, "The courtiers don't dislike it! It's just that the courtiers have always had no rules, and they know that they are not as good as other ladies, so they don't plan to be ugly, and they have nothing to do with Your Highness!"

"Your Highness asks you, do you really not mind his dumb illness?" the little eunuch asked again.

Guo Xinyue was slightly stunned, and it seemed a little strange to ask.

Could it be that she said she didn't mind, and he was going to make himself the princess?

Guo Xinyue felt that she was thinking too much, and when she thought that the hot eyes of those young ladies of the family were looking at the second prince today, Guo Xinyue felt that it probably made the third prince feel sad, so she asked such a question.

In fact, she felt that the third prince was still very good, and she helped her and Ji Yanning in the county lord's mansion last time.

She said: "Of course I won't mind, Your Highness is a good person, and the courtiers think it's very good." ”

Rong Qi listened to her words, a smile rose on the corner of his lips, and he nodded, as if he was very happy.

Guo Xinyue said: "If Your Highness has nothing else to do, the courtiers will go back to the hall first." ”

She saluted Rong Qi, and then quickly left the small pavilion, as if fleeing from the wilderness.

Rong Qi took two steps forward and picked up a handkerchief where she was standing just now, and there were still a lot of pastry crumbs stuck to it, which she had left when she was feeding the fish just now.

Seeing that the handkerchief was embroidered with a group of fish, Rong Qi remembered that the last time he was in the Ren'an County Lord's Mansion, he knew that Yan Anjin had done evil and fell into the lake first, but Guo Xinyue still wanted to jump down to save her.

Come to think of it, she's still good in water.

Guo Xinyue returned to the main hall, her face was still a little cramped, and she hurriedly sat back in her place.

At this time, it was Murong Yixue who was performing his talents, Guo Xinyue just came back and saw Murong Yixue kneeling in the center of the hall and stroking the qin, and suddenly remembered that only the three princes could be seen at every banquet before, and almost all of them followed Murong Yixue around him.

It can be seen that Murong Yixue is the third prince who likes it, even if the third prince can't speak.

Guo Xinyue shook her head slightly, why was she thinking about the matter of the third prince!

Murong Yixue's piano skills are good, and the music is graceful to listen to, but she herself seems to be a little absent-minded, because Rong Qi is not there.

Originally, she wanted to show Rong Qi's talent, but just now Rong Qi went out under the pretext of going out, and Su Guifei began to let her show her talent.

At the end of the song, although she was not interested, she didn't show it on her face, she wanted to disguise it very well, and she would not easily expose her true emotions in front of others.

Su Guifei whispered a word to the queen, only to see the queen bow slightly, with a shallow smile on her face, and she couldn't tell the difference between likes and dislikes.

The third prince, Rong Qi, also walked back to the main hall at this time and sat in his place.

The little eunuch beside Rong Qi bowed beside the queen and whispered something, only to see the queen raise her eyebrows slightly, but she looked surprised, glanced at her son, and the smile on her face deepened.

Murong Yixue's eyes flashed slightly, and she retreated to her seat.

The queen praised: "Miss Murong's piano skills are really good, and this time she has made a lot of progress, I think it is hard work." ”

"Mother's praise. Murong Yixue said humbly.

Next, the remaining girls of the family showed their talents, Guo Xinyue sat in her place, kept her head down, and didn't know whether to step forward or not.

If he didn't step forward, did the third prince feel that he was lying just now?

Before she could figure out a result, the banquet was over.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

Murong Yixue was about to walk towards the outside of the palace, when a little palace maid stepped forward and said, "Miss Murong, the queen invites you to the side hall for a while." ”

Murong Yixue was a little surprised, but she still followed the palace maid to the side hall.

There is not only the queen in the side hall, but also Concubine Su.

Murong Yixue stepped forward and saluted.

The queen went straight to the point and said, "Miss Murong, you are a good girl, this palace wants to ask you a word today, are you willing to become the princess?"

Murong Yixue raised her head in some surprise.

The queen mother actually asked her if she wanted to be the princess, of course she was willing!

She has liked Rong Qi for so many years, how can she not be willing?

She quickly came back to her senses: "The courtiers are willing to accept the arrangement of the queen's mother." ”

The queen bowed slightly, and said with a smile: "Okay, with your words, the palace will go to ask the emperor." ”

Murong Yixue was really surprised and delighted.

Could it be that what the chamberlain beside Rong Qi said to the queen mother just now made the queen mother ask herself?

The joy on her face was hard to hide.

When she returned to the house, she was so happy that she couldn't even sleep, because she could finally get her wish.

But when the decree came the next day, she couldn't laugh.

Because the marriage decree is written to let her marry the second prince Rong Yu as the second prince's concubine.

The people in Chang'an were not as surprised as she was when the emperor gave the second prince and Murong Yixue a marriage, but felt that it was normal for the second prince to be favored by her family.

What surprised everyone even more was the marriage of the third prince Rong Qi and Guo Xinyue, the daughter of the capital transfer envoy.

At the palace banquet, Guo Xinyue did not perform any talents, and was actually pointed out to the third prince.

Ji Yanning was on her way back to Jiangzhou, so naturally she didn't know these things, and after more than ten days of travel, she had already arrived in Jiangnan.

There are two days left to get to Jiangzhou.

"Miss!"

The Ji family's chariot and horse procession was walking in the direction of Jiangzhou City, and two horses were galloping.

Yuan Wu, who took the lead, stretched out his hand and stopped the team.

Those two people went all the way to explore the way, and when they were about to arrive in Jiangzhou, they went back to Baochangji and Jifu in advance to report, so that they could be prepared to welcome the eldest lady.

But now that they have returned, something must have happened.

Ji Yanning lifted the curtain of the car window and asked, "What's the matter?"

The two guards stepped forward and said, "Miss, the Ji family is now taken care of by Second Master Ji, he said...... You have been removed from the family, you are no longer a member of the Ji family, and you also said that Baochang Ji has nothing to do with you. ”

Ji Yanning frowned and asked, "Where is Steward Wu?"

She delayed in Chang'an for a while, but she didn't expect Ji Yuansheng to dare to bully her.

The guard said: "Baochangji seems to be in trouble, Steward Wu is busy dealing with Baochangji's affairs now, we didn't see him, so we rushed back to report to the eldest lady first." ”

Ji Yanning took her bow and arrow from the carriage, lifted the curtain and walked out of the carriage, and asked a guard in front of her to give her the horse, she hung the bow and arrow on the horse, and turned over directly on the horse.

Ziyu stepped forward from the carriage: "Miss, what are you going to do here?"

Ji Yanning said: "I'll take a team of people back to Jiangzhou City first, and you will slowly hurry behind." ”

Before Ziyu could say anything, Ji Yanning had already stepped forward and walked up to Yuan Wu: "Pick out the fifteen best guards in martial arts and follow me in advance." ”

Yuan Wu directly ordered the person from the Dingbei Hou Mansion to follow, and the rest of the people followed the original team according to the original route.

A fierce look flashed in Ji Yanning's eyes, daring to rob her things so blatantly, how could she show mercy?

Originally, she had already let go of the second room, after all, the mistakes made by Mrs. Ji and Wei's family, they themselves bore the consequences, as for Ji Yuansheng, they couldn't afford to make any waves, but they didn't expect to be too merciful.

At the first opportunity, their true nature was revealed.

Ji Yanning galloped towards Jiangzhou City with fifteen escort horses, raising dust all the way.
