Chapter 21: First Encounter.

Since that conversation in the study, Jiang Yanran has instantly jumped from obscurity to the confidant of the Ninth Princess. Although it is still not as close as Yunyan and the Ninth Princess, the others are the same.

Jiang Yanran is no longer confined to the study in the backyard, and from time to time she also accompanies the ninth princess to banquets or classes, but it has only been a month, and she has not seen the seventh prince once.

Jiang Yanran didn't have any extra thoughts about this, and occasionally laughed at herself in her heart, how could the dignified seventh prince remember her as a little fisherman, and she was still using the identity of the Shen family's daughter.

"Meow~~" The grass on the side of the road moved slightly, Jiang Yanran stopped, she squatted down and turned over the flowers, and sure enough, she saw a jade white milk cat staring at her with big round eyes.

Isn't this the raccoon slave who broke into the house before?

Jiang Yanran was happy in her heart, with a smile on her face, she reached out and touched the little head of the milk cat, and the raccoon slave seemed to recognize her, not only was she not afraid, but she also took the initiative to stick it up, purring and coquettish in her mouth.

"Ah, you little clever ghost, how do you know that I brought something delicious today!" Jiang Yanran actually just came back from the kitchen, and she happened to be carrying the snacks offered by the kitchen waiter in her arms.

She took out the pastry and fed it to the kitten, and sighed while watching it purr and eat: This is the first time I have been honored, and I never thought that I would cheapen your cat.

"I can tell you, if you eat my things, you will be my tanuki slave from now on. ”

Jiang Yanran was muttering to herself, when suddenly a faint voice came from behind her: "Then didn't anyone tell it that it had a master?"

Jiang Yanran's hand shook, and she couldn't help but be so frightened that she sat directly on the ground, and as soon as she raised her eyes, she saw a young man in a green shirt who didn't know how long he had been standing behind her and watching.

"So you've been feeding my raccoon slave?" The young man suddenly approached and looked Jiang Yanran up and down: "It's a beautiful girl, and I'm sad that the jade slave likes you." ”

Jiang Yanran blushed with shame, and her eyes widened with some annoyance, seeing that he was dressed plainly, it was estimated that he was a valet in which palace. She got up from the ground and asked, "Do you say that this raccoon slave is yours?"

The young man didn't laugh angrily, this was the first time someone dared to be so rude to him, "The jade slave was originally raised by me, and what else is needed to prove it." ”

"Then you call it, can you answer it?" At this time, the jade slave finished eating the pastry and was meowing at Jiang Yanran's feet, trying to beg for food again.

The young man is today, Liu Zhaocheng's face was proud, "Why not?" After speaking, he called at the jade slave lightly, but he didn't expect the jade slave to ignore him at all and still be coquettish under Jiang Yanran's feet.

His face suddenly darkened, and his voice couldn't help but get louder, with a little annoyance: "Yu Xiaonu, don't you give it to me quickly..... Come over here!." I almost made a mistake, but fortunately, Jiang Yanran didn't listen carefully.

The jade slave was also a spiritual one, seeing that his master was really angry, he hurriedly ran to Liu Zhaocheng's feet and yelled a few times, rubbing his head against the hem of his clothes. Liu Zhaocheng's face softened slightly, he picked up the jade slave and shook it to Jiang Yanran as if to say, look, I'll just say that I am the master of this little guy.

Jiang Yanran knew that this guy was really a cat owner, and she was a little depressed, she secretly rolled her eyes, showing off something, isn't it just a cat, how amazing!

Well, it's remarkable.

Jiang Yanran didn't want to admit it, but she had to admit that she was really envious.

Since she was a child, she has liked fluffy animals, especially raccoon slaves, but the conditions at home are not good, and she can't afford to raise raccoon slaves. There is only one tanuki slave in the village, it is a big pear flower, but it is beautiful, but it is always fierce to people and does not let people get close to it for half a step. Although Jiang Yanran has always coveted and wanted to touch her hair, she has never succeeded.

"Since you are its owner, you have to watch it in the future, don't let it run around, be careful of causing trouble. ”

Jiang Yanran saw the jade slave meowing softly in Liu Zhaocheng's arms, her little head moved a little restless, and she couldn't help but worry when she remembered the last time it boldly broke into Chuxiu Palace.

Liu Zhaocheng nodded and said, "I know." After thinking about it, he added a thank you.

Jiang Yanran saw that he didn't look like he was serving a nobleman, it was estimated that this raccoon slave was also secretly raised, maybe there was no good food to eat, and this raccoon slave ran out to find food like this, so he said: "If you don't eat in the future, you will come to Chaoxia Palace to find me, I will serve by the side of the ninth princess, and the reward will be more than that of a servant like you." ”

"Little waiter?" Liu Zhaocheng was surprised, this girl actually took him as a waiter.

"What's the matter? Could it be that you still want to pretend to be a nobleman?" Jiang Yanran looked like she didn't pretend, I knew it clearly, "As far as I know, the only one in the palace who is about the same age as you is the current saint." The implication is that you don't want to impersonate anyone in the future.

is Liu Zhaocheng of the Son of Heaven himself: "......"

Liu Zhaocheng was in a mood and suddenly became playful, thinking that since this girl is so ignorant, let's play with her, it's pretty good. had no intention of telling the truth, and acquiesced to Jiang Yanran's guess.

"Alright, I've been out long enough, it's time to go back. You should go back quickly, be careful of being punished!" Jiang Yanran finally glanced at the jade slave in Liu Zhaocheng's arms reluctantly before turning around and leaving.

Liu Zhaocheng looked at her distant back, touched the jade slave in front of him, stared at its round eyes and couldn't help laughing: "I didn't see that you are quite likable, better than me, the emperor." As he spoke, he gently pinched the pointed ears of the jade slave, and made the jade slave meow unhappily.

Chen Ju suddenly came out from the side and said to Liu Zhao: "Your Majesty should go back, the Queen Mother is looking for you!"

The smile on Liu Zhaocheng's lips disappeared, "Got it." He said coldly.

Here, Jiang Yanran was caught by a maid as soon as she walked into Chaoxia Palace and said, "Yanran, where have you been, there is no one everywhere." The ninth princess summoned her, don't come soon. ”

Jiang Yanran didn't have time to tidy up her clothes and makeup, so she followed the maidservant to the ninth princess.

After greeting her, Liu Xiyue just called Jiang Yanran up and stunned Jiang Yanran with a word.

"Yanran, let's go out of the palace secretly, I heard that there is a lantern festival in Chang'an tonight. ”

Before Jiang Yanran could react, she saw her shyness again, "Brother Yuan will also go." ”

Now Jiang Yanran understood, as the person who most wanted the princess to marry General He, of course she nodded and said yes, as for the punishment after leaving the palace without permission and being discovered, she directly left it behind.

After all, her main purpose in entering the palace was to accompany the princess to marry and go to the border to find Jiang Ming. The princess admired General He as rumored, but General He's thoughts were unknown, and there was also the rival of the Xie family, who was eyeing her, and it felt like there was still a long way to go for the two to achieve marriage!
