didn't call the Eighth Emperor Sister, and even Jiahui, who has always been close, called the "Sixth Princess", is this because she doesn't dare to climb high because of her identity, or does she not take the princess as a sister-in-law in her eyes at all?

Looking at Lin Ruo, who was smiling, Xijiao felt inexplicably uncomfortable, and immediately blurted out and asked, "Why did you marry my fourth brother?" ”

"Huh?" Lin Ruo frowned slightly, not knowing what she meant.

"Princess Ben asks you, why do you want to marry the Fourth Emperor Brother! You ......"

"Eighth Princess!" Lin Ruo stopped her from continuing, and then commanded to Youcao, "You wait for me in front." ”

Youcao glanced at her own lady, nodded respectfully in response, and retreated with her things.

"Want to go?"

Xi Yao raised her eyebrows, and was about to ask the palace maid next to her to stop Youcao, but Lin Ruo interrupted her words again, and said in Xi Yao's ear in a low voice: "If the eighth princess wants to question King Rong's matter, it is best to let them retreat." ”

Xi Ji was slightly stunned, looking at Lin Ruo's gaze that could not be refused, and she was a little stunned in her heart.

That kind of gaze was very similar to the way her mother was not angry and arrogant, and even the wrist she was holding in her hand forgot to break free, and then obediently did as she was told.

After making sure that only he and Xijiao were left around, Lin Ruocai let go of his hand, the expression on his face relaxed, and he smiled faintly: "Eighth princess, what do you want to ask now, just ask." ”

Xi Jiao came back to her senses, looked at the faint red mark on her wrist, and suddenly became angry in her heart: "You are a bold businesswoman, you dare to be disrespectful to this princess because your father has a little favor for you!" I, I'm going to tell my mother, let her teach you a good lesson, a businesswoman who doesn't know the height of the sky! ”

Lin Ruo watched this delicate and willful eighth princess play ruthlessly, and couldn't help but feel a little funny: "Eighth princess, don't you want to ask me about Prince Rong?" ”

"Presumptuous, you dare to contradict this princess! You ......"

"Eighth princess, there is no one else here, I don't use the identity of Princess Rong to press you, and you don't have to use the identity of the princess to embarrass me, what do you want to ask, just ask directly, the prince is still waiting for me at the palace gate."

Lin Ruo said lightly, reasoning, Xijiao should call her the fourth emperor's sister-in-law, and Lin Ruo has always called Xijiao the eighth princess, which is not rude.

Xijiao was shocked by Lin Ruo's momentum, and she didn't know where to start for a while.

Lin Ruo smiled a little helplessly, and said: "If the eighth princess thinks that my status as a merchant girl is not worthy of Prince Rong, you can go to the emperor and let the fourth prince divorce me and marry someone else." However, if the eighth princess has something wrong in her heart, it is best to strangle it in her heart as soon as possible. ”

A look of surprise flashed on Xiyao's face, and her face was a little unnatural, as if the secret in her heart had been revealed, and she was annoyed and angry: "You, what nonsense are you talking about!" He, he's my fourth brother! We grew up together since childhood, and our relationship is deep, so you don't want to spread rumors and slander this princess! ”

Lin Ruo chuckled: "Eighth princess, you don't have to panic. There is no one else here, and I have no ill will. ”

Xi Yao glared at Lin Ruo fiercely, and said with a hard mouth: "I'm just ...... I just think there's someone more suitable for the fourth princess than you. ”

"Someone? Who is this man? ”

"I ...... Why should I tell you! ”

Lin Ruo smiled faintly: "No matter men or women, they all like the best." The prince is on the battlefield and has great achievements, how can there be fewer women who like him like such a big hero? How many women in the boudoir regard the prince as the lover of their dreams, a good match, I am just lucky. However, Xijiao, I only know that the prince likes you very much as a sister, and you are also very dependent on the prince's brother. Sister and brother worship, there is nothing to blame. However, you must be clear about whether your affection for him is a thought of a child or a self-promise. ”

"I ...... I...... Of course I'm ......"

"I will not tell anyone about today's events, and you should not tell anyone else, lest those who have a heart make a fuss against you. I can feel your heart for the prince, and so can others. In the palace, people's hearts are separated, you must protect yourself, the prince will not be able to save you at any time. ”

was a plain talk, but she put herself in Xijiao's shoes, and also explained why she had to support the maids and her palace maids beside her.

No matter who it is, when they hear that the other party thinks about themselves, where will they still raise their eyebrows?

The so-called person who reaches out and doesn't hit the smiling face, Xijiao is not an indiscriminate and unreasonable person, so she immediately restrained her temper and asked, "You, don't get angry or jealous?" ”

Lin Ruoqian smiled and shook his head: "Why should I be angry?" Why be jealous? ”

The queen mother said that in this world, no woman would be willing to share her husband with others. If a person pretends to be generous, either she is too deep in the city, or you ......" Xijiao thought of Lin Ruo's reminder, looked around carefully, and then lowered her voice and asked, "You don't love the fourth brother?" ”

Lin Ruo smiled: "Eighth princess, there are too many things in this world, which cannot be explained by the word 'love'. When you meet the "person" you are destined for, you will understand why. ”

"What do you mean? Are you saying I'm a kid and don't know how to love? ”

Lin Ruo looked at this little girl who played tricks when she didn't agree with her, although she was only one year older than her, she didn't laugh angrily: "What's wrong with children? Cry when you want to cry, laugh when you want to laugh, get angry when you want to be angry, be happy when you want to be happy, no worries, no restraints. When you grow up, you have to weigh the pros and cons of everything, and then control your emotions, do you think you are still happy? ”

Xijiao listened to Lin Ruo's flickering in a daze, and felt that it was so reasonable.

Lin Ruo continued to add: "There is only right and wrong in the eyes of children, and only pros and cons in the eyes of adults. If you can be so simple and happy all the time, it is a happy thing. ”

Xi Ji nodded as if she didn't understand, her eyes were still confused: "You still don't seem to answer me, do you love the fourth brother or not?" ”

Lin Ruo's gaze was a little sad, with a depth that did not match her age, and she said lightly after a long time: "There are many ways to love, not every one of them has to be vigorous. The fireworks that are too bright will burn in an instant, and all that remains is a smear of ashes; On the contrary, it was a candle flame, and the night was long, and it was lit until dawn. ”

Xiyao's eyes were even more confused.

A faint bitter smile floated on the corner of Lin Ruo's mouth, how could Xijiao understand these things at this age? So he asked her in a different way: "What do you think two people who love each other should be?" ”

Xijiao blurted out without hesitation: "The two love each other, vow to the alliance, respect each other like guests, it's okay!" ”

"The two are happy, and they may not be able to match each other; The alliance may not be able to cross the craze and be difficult to fill. As for respecting each other as guests, guests, and guests, treating loved ones with the attitude of treating guests, self-denial, and decentness, isn't it a kind of alienation? ”

Xi Ji couldn't find the words to refute again.

"Alright, it's getting late, it's time for me to leave. If you want to see the fourth prince, just send someone to the Rong Palace's mansion to say hello at any time. It's a bit poisonous on this day, don't get caught in the heat. ”

"Huh?"

Xi Ji didn't expect Lin Ruo to end the conversation so quickly, and her face was full of doubts. Lin Ruo secretly signaled a figure not far away with his gaze, and told her with his mouth that it was Princess Ye.
