Chapter 61: Ziheng eats deflated
"Princess, the third prince is waiting in the front hall, saying that he is meeting Situ Gongzi."
Huantong and Teng Zirui, who were practicing martial arts, stopped their current movements one after another, and looked at Teng Ziyan and the little palace maid who reported the news.
Teng Ziyan was originally drinking hot tea, watching the two of them practice martial arts, and when she heard that the third prince was going to see Huantong, the look on her face was also a little abnormal.
"Okay, I know, you go and prepare some tea and snacks for the third prince, and let him wait in the front hall for a while."
Seeing the little palace maid walking away, Huantong stepped forward, "Teng Ziheng wants to see me at this time, I'm afraid it's because the queen said something." ”
"If my brother is afraid that they will be cheating, I might as well let my sister stop him."
Phantom Tong shook his head, "Even if he dodges today, in order to achieve his goal, he will not stop." Besides, when did I become a timid person? ”
The brother and sister looked at each other and smiled, if it was that cowardly, my mother's revenge plan would not be able to be launched.
"Then let me go to the bottom of Teng Ziheng first to see what kind of medicine he sells in the gourd, so my brother doesn't have to be too passive."
"It's fine."
The brother and sister had a plan, and walked towards the front hall one after the other. The front foot saved An Xiruo from the queen, and the back foot Teng Ziheng came, if the two have nothing to do with it, the Tao is not convincing.
"Today, the third brother came back to me, but it was for others, I'm a sister, it's inevitable that I'm a little sad." Teng Ziyan sat on the main seat, saying sad in her mouth, but she looked at Teng Ziheng with no sadness in her eyes.
Teng Ziheng and his eldest sister rarely intersected, naturally they had no feelings, let alone respect, and they never looked at Teng Ziyan, "Situ Huantong often comes to my sister's place, and there is no figure in the White Tiger Camp, but he has to come to Yukun Palace to find him." Now that I've found it here, my sister won't hide him anymore, don't worry, my sister won't touch your sweetheart. ”
"My brother is really eloquent, and you can say that anything white can be called black. What happened just now, if it was heard by others, they would still think that Shang Qu's eldest princess was an indecent person. Teng Ziyan's eyes were a little more ruthless, and after a few words of conversation, she felt Teng Ziheng's difficulty, and secretly sweated for Phantom Tong in her heart.
Huantong walked in from the side door of the front hall with one hand behind his back, and made a hand salute to Teng Ziheng and Teng Ziyan respectively.
"Your Highness misunderstood, Weichen is just here to teach the Eighth Prince some fists. However, the minister heard that the daughter of Li Shangshu's family often went to His Royal Highness's mansion as a guest. ”
The second half of Huantong's sentence can be described as a heart-wrenching word, and every word poked at Teng Ziheng's sore spot, but Teng Ziheng was powerless and irrefutable. So Teng Ziheng didn't dwell on that topic anymore, and expressed his intention straight to the point.
"I just went to see the queen mother, and I heard Zhiruo say that your subordinate An Xiruo was only called by the queen mother to Huakun Palace today to give a lecture, but there is such a thing."
The corners of Huantong's mouth rose slightly, Teng Ziheng really came for An Xiruo, seeing that he wanted to care but didn't open his mouth, he could only ask questions in such a tortuous way, Huantong felt that he was pitiful and ridiculous.
"But there is such a thing, and it is the creek that Weichen personally picked up from the queen's mother, and now she should have returned to the White Tiger Camp." Phantom Tong deliberately screamed intimately, admiring Teng Ziheng's expression, looking at his face blue for a while and white for a while, but he could only pretend to be calm, Phantom Tong felt a lot more comfortable. If it weren't for him, the brook wouldn't have been topped by the queen.
Teng Ziheng's face was already ugly, he didn't speak immediately, but calmed down his somewhat excited mood before slowly speaking, "If An Xi is my friend, she is now your subordinate, you should protect her." ”
Just a few words, Teng Ziheng said it through gritted teeth, how much he hoped that he could have the right to protect An Xiruo.
"Don't bother Your Highness, Weichen's beloved woman, Weichen will naturally protect it. It's just that Weichen is also bothered by His Royal Highness, and he is a little farther away from Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi is just a nobody, and he has no blessing to receive the favor of the prince. As he spoke, he bowed slightly at Teng Ziheng, very sincerely.
The corners of Teng Ziheng's mouth twitched slightly, "Just take care of yourself." As he spoke, he shook his sleeves and got up and walked away.
Seeing Teng Ziheng's figure disappear from view, Teng Ziyan burst out laughing.
"Brother, have you seen it, this is the first time I've seen Teng Ziheng eat deflated. I heard that he is a sleek person, who is very prosperous and comfortable in the court, and no one can make the third prince change his face and lose his smile. If those ministers knew, what kind of expression would the jade-faced prince in their minds have to blush for a woman. Hahahahaha......ha
Since Phantom Tong and Teng Ziyan met, it was the first time to see her smile so happily, Phantom Tong understood that as the eldest princess, it was not just good to be pampered in the harem, especially when she had no biological mother, and the emperor loved her very much, how many people were staring at her, just waiting for her to make a mistake. So Huantong didn't interrupt her, just sat quietly down and laughed with her.
Huantong stayed in Yukun Palace for a long time, and only then did he leave the palace until the palace gate was about to be locked.
The carriage had been waiting outside the palace for a day, and when he saw the lonely figure of the carriage at sunset, Phantom Tong suddenly realized that the relaxed and outdated illusion when he was with Teng Ziyan, and he was still heavy when he took off those beautiful whitewashes.
sighed softly, and looked back at his palace, where he grew up, and it was also a cage-like existence. Without the groom to put the footstool, Huantong easily got into the carriage with a light jump, and lifted the curtain only to find that An Xiruo was sitting on it, the same as the scene a few days ago, but the mood was completely different.
"When did you come?" Looking at An Xiruo's somewhat tired face, Huantong could also guess that she had been sitting in the carriage for a long time.
An Xiruo lowered his head, avoided Phantom Tong's hot gaze, and said lightly: "I didn't leave." ”
Phantom Tong only felt two shocks in his chest, and blurted out his words, with a little worry, "You've been sitting here for a day." ”
An Xiruo still didn't look up, "I don't want to go back, so I want to wait for you here." ”
Huantong didn't say a word, untied his mink fur, draped it on An Xiruo's body, and covered her hand in his palm.
"It's such a cold day, I can't wait to go back first, how can there be such a stupid girl as you, you really sit here for a day." said that she was stupid, but she was very distressed in her heart.
An Xiruo sat there quietly and didn't say a word. She sees that Huantong is good to her, but the queen's grace is really in it, plus her only relative is still in the hands of the queen, if An Xi wants to tear her heart in half, then she won't be as tormented as she is now.
Looking at the man in front of him who was dedicated to his own good, An Xiruo really couldn't bear to do anything to hurt him, but the reality was that he had no choice.
"I've always been causing you trouble, but I haven't said I'm sorry. You know, the queen has a life-saving grace for me, and I don't have a choice. ”
Phantom Tong's action was stunned, why didn't he have no choice, who gave himself the right to choose. If he could, he didn't want to be the queen's son, he didn't want to lose his mother, and he didn't want to wander around incognito.
"You don't need to apologize to anyone, including me."
There was silence again in the carriage, except for the sound of two people breathing one after another.
"Boss, hurry back to the White Tiger Camp, something has happened in Ding'anju." Meng Qi's voice came from outside the car, and his voice was very low, as if he was deliberately avoiding it, not wanting others to hear it.
