Lan Beichen went to Chonghua Palace again, appeased the Queen Mother, and then left the palace.

When he got home, Xia Jinse was chatting with Song Fanzhen, chatting with great interest. The two had just met, as if they had become friends for many years, and they had a good conversation.

"Ninth Prince, you are a very good princess!" As soon as he saw Lan Beichen coming back, Song Fanzhen smiled and said: "Talking is interesting, not rigid, neat and hearty, and not crepe, much better than those daughters and nobles before." ”

"What's the matter, Madame praised it falsely." Xia Jinse also laughed.

"Mrs. Song turned out to be a martial arts person, and she could fly on the eaves and walk on the wall. If it weren't for you, we'd all go to the garden and try it out. Mrs. Song's swordsmanship is also good, and she has a few moves against Chasing Yun, which is too powerful. ”

Song Fanzhen covered his mouth and smiled: "How can you say so powerful, don't keep praising me, I will be proud." ”

Lan Beichen frowned slightly, it turned out that he almost had a quarrel with the emperor in the palace just now, and these two women were touting each other at home, and they wanted to go to the garden to try floating on the water? I really don't know how thick the sky is.

"True Concubine Niangniang......"

"Call me Mrs. Song." Song Fanzhen interrupted Lan Beichen's words.

"Mrs. Song, why doesn't this king know that you have lived in the cold palace for thirteen years, and you have been secretly practicing water floating?" Lan Beichen stared at her, and the corners of his lips hooked: "If you want to take Jinse to the garden, you are not afraid of sinking yourself?" She doesn't know how to be watery, if you want to cause her to have an accident, this king will send you back to the palace as soon as possible. ”

Song Fanzhen was stunned for a moment, laughed dryly, and looked at Xia Jinse extremely embarrassed.

"No, I'm just talking, it's a joke, don't take it seriously the Nine Princes."

"Lan Beichen, don't be so fierce, scare Mrs. Song." Xia Jinse feigned, he was so fierce as soon as he came back, no wonder others were afraid of him.

After speaking, she asked again: "By the way, the emperor just summoned you to the palace, what's the urgency?" ”

Lan Beichen raised his eyes and looked at Song Fanzhen, and Xia Jinse suddenly understood: "Do you think Mrs. Song?" Is something wrong? ”

Song Fanzhen was also nervous, for fear that Lan Beichen would send her back, staring at him with a pleading look. Lan Beichen lowered his eyes, and then calmly said what happened just now, but he didn't say anything about the dispute with Emperor Yuanqing.

As soon as she heard that Empress Dowager Zhang actually sent someone to hunt down and kill her, Song Fanzhen's face changed, and she sneered: "This old woman wants to kill me, it's not bad that I didn't kill her." ”

Xia Jinse hurriedly persuaded her: "Don't be impulsive, the Queen Mother can't kill you, with Lan Beichen here, the emperor will also protect you." ”

This matter seems to be getting bigger and bigger, and the Queen Mother even dispatched the forbidden army and the dragon guard, as if she would not die. She thinks about it, how can she make such a fuss?

After a few simple words, Xia Jinse left Mu Xiang to take care of Song Fanzhen before leaving with Lan Beichen.

Song Fanzhen suddenly asked Lan Beichen if she had brought out her maidservant three thousand, Lan Beichen squinted his eyes and glanced at her, she didn't need to say anything, she also understood.

Well, if you don't bring three thousand out, it seems that you can only let three thousand stay in the cold palace and suffer for a while.

and Lan Beichen returned to the leisurely residence, Xia Jinse sat down and sighed.

"Lan Beichen, you said that Mrs. Song stayed with us, will anyone find out?" If something really happened, maybe even the Jin Palace, after all, now that the Queen Mother has issued a chase and kill order, she can only wait until the emperor persuades the Queen Mother, and this matter will be over.

But Song Fan really exists, and it has already affected the interests of other people, and when the emperor said that he wanted to abolish the harem, he pushed her to the tip of the needle and roasted her. It seems to be protection, but it actually harms her, and it is also impulsive.

"During this time, you find someone to keep an eye on the real concubine, don't let her out." Lan Beichen advised.

"Don't worry, I know." Xia Jinse nodded.

For two days, it was calm and nothing happened.

As soon as Xia Jinse got up in the morning, chasing the clouds and shooting the moon, he brought a basin of water, waited for her to freshen up, and brought seven or eight new clothes, asked Xia Jinse which one he liked, and said a few new hairstyles, and the jewelry on the dresser was also picked out, like a fairy who wanted to dress Xia Jinse.

"What's the matter, are you going out today?" Xia Jinse looked at them so eagerly and asked curiously.

"The princess doesn't remember herself?"

Chaiyun looked at the shooting moon and couldn't help laughing: "The prince is really right, the princess just can't remember, and she has to be reminded." ”

Shooting the moon smiled: "Today is the ninth day of the third month, the princess thinks about it, what day?" ”

The ninth day of March...... Xia Jinse's heart suddenly moved, and he blurted out: "Ah, I almost forgot, today is my birthday." ”

"Congratulations to the princess, congratulations to the princess, today is the sixteenth birthday of the princess." The two women laughed at the same time, in unison.

At this time, Lan Beichen came in, with a faint smile: "When you think of it yourself, this king will not count on it." I can't even remember my birthday, what else can I say? ”

Glancing at a few sets of new clothes on the bed, Lan Beichen picked up a light purple one and compared it to Xia Jinse: "This set is good." ”

"Okay, just wear it." Xia Jinse smiled.

After she changed her clothes and combed her hair, she asked Chaiyun to insert a white hosta for her, looked left and right in the mirror, and even surprised herself. Sure enough, people rely on clothes, and it is rare to dress up carefully, and sure enough, I am amazing when I see it.

The scars on his face are completely invisible, as if he has never been injured, his eyebrows are lightly swept and his lips are like a glow. A bauhinia silver silk dark pattern skirt wrapped her beautiful figure, her slender waist was slender, and Lan Beichen, who was watching, hugged her behind her.

"Is it pretty?" She asked, her pretty face crimson.

"It's all good-looking, but you're more beautiful today." Lan Beichen said softly in her ear.

When he went out to the flower hall, Song Fanzhen was already waiting there, and he was also amazed when he saw Xia Jinse dressed up so carefully: "Yo, why is the princess so beautiful, what day is it today?" ”

Mu Xiang remembered it at once: "Today is the ninth day of the third month, the princess's birthday!" ”

Song Fan was really stunned, surprised and delighted: "No wonder, it turned out to be a birthday!" Ouch, I just knew, what should I do if I didn't prepare a gift? She touched her body from place to place, but she didn't find anything for a long time, and she was suddenly stunned.

"No, just feel free." Xia Jinse waved his hand.

Soon, breakfast was put on the table, with all kinds of steamed buns and dim sum, cold side dishes, and fragrant millet porridge and shredded chicken noodles. Song Fanzhen's index finger moved, and he ate three bowls of porridge and a basket of steamed buns in one go, and then put down his chopsticks beautifully.

Lan Beichen finished eating unhurriedly before saying, "Later, I will take Jinse out, you will stay at home and don't leave anywhere." ”

Song Fanzhen immediately said: "Don't worry, I know." ”

Xia Jinse asked curiously: "Lan Beichen, where are you going?" ”

"Today is your birthday, so naturally I want to take you to have a good trip, how can I stay at home?" Lan Beichen had a smile in his eyes, but he squinted, glanced at Song Fanzhen, and warned her to be honest.

Soon, after the two were ready, Xia Jinse looked at Song Fanzhen apologetically and asked Mu Xiang to talk to her.

There are also silent words and moon shooting at home, and there are many guards in the house, so it is more than enough to protect safety.

If it was something else, Xia Jinse could not go, but today was her birthday, Lan Beichen was specially prepared, she didn't want to waste his kindness, so she could only be wronged and leave Song Fanzhen at home.

The carriage was parked at the door, Lan Beichen didn't say where to go, until he got in the car, and the carriage headed in the direction of the outside of the city, Xia Jinse asked curiously: "Lan Beichen, don't be so mysterious, where are you going to take me?" ”

"Guess?" He smiled and said nothing.

"Where can I guess that you are a mysterious person." Xia Jinse was full of joy, but she could guess Lan Beichen's thoughts, but she couldn't guess.

"You'll find out in a moment." Lan Beichen still didn't say anything, only the corners of his lips raised: "Although this king has been preparing for a long time, I don't know if you like it or not, the heart is the most important, you will know when you go." ”

The carriage drove all the way, not slowly, and after driving for more than an hour, a green mountain came into view. Xia Jinse was a little stunned, isn't that Qingyang Mountain? Could it be that Lan Beichen brought her here?

Qingyang Mountain was the place where she and Lan Beichen met for the first time, full of memories, Xia Jinse looked out through the car window, as if he remembered his mansion on Qingyang Mountain.

"Lan Beichen, will we go to your yard later?" Xia Jinse asked.

"It's been a year, let's take a look." Lan Beichen Road.

Half an hour later, the carriage finally stopped, and in front of it was at the foot of Qingyang Mountain, and a path winded up, and the carriage could not pass. The two got out of the car, Shattered Star opened the way in front, Lan Beichen led Xia Jinse, chased the clouds and walked at the end, and the four of them slowly walked towards the mountain.

It's spring again, the grass grows and the warbler flies, Xia Jinse remembered this time last year, she had just come to this time, and she was chased and fell off the cliff, only to meet Lan Beichen and Shattered Star. He killed the killer and saved her, but ignored her, and only took her in the mansion and left her to fend for herself.

Fortunately, Xia Jinse brought the medical cabin, otherwise she would not be where she is now.

The mountain road is very rugged, but Lan Beichen pulled her, but it was very easy, and it was almost noon, the house hidden in the forest finally appeared in front of him, and the chaimen was still like yesterday between the greenery.

Xia Jinse suddenly became excited, ran over quickly, and pushed open the courtyard door.

Everything is the same as last year, as if someone often comes to clean it, in the flower beds of the yards on both sides, there are golden cherry blossoms, bluestone floors, and in the water tank under the eaves, the two goldfish are still swimming around, but they have grown a lot.

Chasing Clouds and Broken Stars stepped forward, pushed open the door of the house, and as soon as the items were complete, Xia Jinse knew at a glance that it must have been prepared by Lan Beichen in advance, otherwise how could it be so clean?

"Shall we rest here today?" Xia Jinse asked.

If the birthday can be simply lived, it is not bad, just enjoy the leisure in the mountains with Lan Beichen, and if you can go hunting, it must be more interesting.

It was noon, Shattered Star Chasing Cloud simply copied a few dishes and brought them up, Xia Jinse was already hungry, so he ate two bowls in one go.

Stir-fried pheasant with wild mushrooms, mushroom soup, fried lilies with pine nuts, and a bowl of dried shrimp and seaweed soup caught from mountain streams. Although the craftsmanship of chasing clouds and shattering stars is not as good as Mr. Guan, this comfortable and leisurely feeling is incomparable to nothing.

After resting for a while, Lan Beichen wanted to take Xia Jinse to hunt.

"On Qingyang Mountain, there is a lot of game, and the best taste is the roe deer, if you can hunt a bear, bring it back and let Mr. Guan make a meal of braised bear paws, it will be good." Lan Beichen was talking, his eyes were already aimed at a certain position.
