Chapter 19: Please leave the palace
The prince flipped over the fold on his hand, it had been a few days, and there was no movement in the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, which made him a little uneasy.
In the afternoon, when the sun had taken its color, the sky turned and snow fell. "Zhao Baojiang, Zhao Baojiang." He called twice in a row, but no one answered. I only vaguely heard a few hurried footsteps outside the door.
Someone pushed the door in, "Your Highness, the minion is here." ”
"Go to Liuying Pavilion." The prince thought about it for a long time, but he still decided to tell the girl who called herself "Su Eunxiu" who lived in Liuying Pavilion.
"It's still snowing outside, or ......"
"The snow is going to be heavy at night. Go early and come back early. Pass the sedan chair, I don't want to toss this body. ”
In the Liuying Pavilion, Su Enxiu looked at the snowflakes falling on the branches in a daze, she grew up in the south since she was a child, and rarely saw snow, but in the past three years, when she stayed in the courtyard of the Hou Mansion, she could occasionally see the wonder of the whole courtyard white overnight, and at that time I thought that if the younger brother in the family saw it, he would be very happy. Now that the snow is falling again, I miss my family even more.
Zhao Baojiang was just about to open his mouth to let someone take over, but was stopped by the prince.
The prince saw that the woman in the courtyard was wearing a light pink jacket and skirt, her face was slightly red from the cold, she tilted her head, and her side face was very familiar, but her face did not have the cheerful look in her memory, her brows were locked and sad, and her cold and lonely appearance made people feel distressed.
"Jade Fei ......," the prince couldn't help but call.
Su Eun-so heard the voice and saw the comer, so he hurriedly turned around and said goodbye. It was rare for the prince to come here, and this time she was determined to muster up the courage to follow Kang Yufei's meaning and save herself.
She was always too polite, and the prince wanted to help her up and tell her that she could not follow these rigid rules as before, but when he reached out to her, he was a little timid for some reason, and he was a little distant, and the prince sighed slightly.
The two entered the room, sat dry, and couldn't find a feeling of comfort, the prince looked at her face, and for some reason his eyes unconsciously moved away as soon as he met her.
Su Enxiu wanted to open his mouth to talk about leaving the palace again, but seeing the prince's expression, he felt that he seemed to have something to say, so he didn't dare to speak rashly, which angered him.
"Su ...... Miss Su, how is your recovery from her injuries? ”
"I've healed and can move around as I please, even if it's a long walk......"
"Imperial Physician Wang has not been in the palace for a few days, and Imperial Physician Qin has taken good care of him?" The prince heard what she meant, and hurriedly changed his mind.
"What's wrong with Imperial Doctor Wang?"
"I'm going out of the palace to do some errands, and I'll be back in a few days."
"Did the imperial physician return to the palace, diagnose the pulse of the people's daughter, and said that it was all right, and the people's daughter could go home?"
The prince frowned, very unhappy in his heart, why did she talk left and right and couldn't get around the sentence of going home, she also lived in the palace for a long time back then, why is she so reluctant to stay here now.
Su Enxiu saw that the prince's face was angry, and he felt even more cramped, and he didn't dare to ask any more.
It fell silent again, and only the charcoal fire in the charcoal basin creaked, which made people feel more uncomfortable.
"Your third brother is also in the capital, do you want to meet him?" The prince hesitated for a long time, but he still couldn't waste this trip on a snowy day, so he threw out this sentence regardless of it.
"Third brother?" Su Enxiu was a little stunned, but soon thought that it should be Kang Yufei's third brother, Kang Yuche. She shook her head, "Your Highness, the Minnu told you that the Minnu family only has a younger brother, and there is no elder brother. ”
The prince sneered, and this laughter made Su Enxiu shiver, "You don't even recognize your brother, you are really ruthless." ”
When the prince said this, he stared at Su Eunxiu's face, but he didn't see the slightest trace of shame and weakness on her face.
At that moment, he suddenly felt that maybe this girl was right, she was Su Enxiu, and she was never Kang Yufei.
"Is Your Highness talking about the third prince of the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei? The folk girl has been telling you that you are mistaken, I am Su Enxiu, a person from Tongcheng, and I am not the lord of Yufei at all. The county lord is in the palace now, and the people's daughter was ...... a few days ago."
Why did she lie and there was no trace on her face, and she was so determined to leave the palace? Even my siblings, even my hard work to keep it, completely ignored? What is it about her outside the palace that attracts her?
The prince's heart stirred up, the wound hurt as if it had been re-torn, he no longer had the strength to stay, he said in a weak voice, "If you want your third brother to die, you can leave." ”
Outside, the snow was falling heavier and heavier, and a chill swept in through the cracks in the door.
Su Enxiu has actually thought of an excellent way to prove that she is Su Enxiu and not Kang Yufei in the past few days, but at this moment, she didn't dare to say anything, so she could only watch the prince walk out angrily.
In a blink of an eye, it is the eleventh day of the lunar month, and all palaces and halls in the palace have begun to prepare for the New Year. Since that day, the emperor's body has become drowsy again, and he has never summoned anyone else. Although the palace is busy with the New Year, the atmosphere is still a little worse than in previous years.
Kang Yufei was busy in the palace, Concubine Mei silently pushed Zhang Luo's New Year to her, she was not in the mood to do this, but she couldn't ignore it, fortunately, there was Fang's mother next to her to help, so she would have an idea, and she could occasionally worry about the situation of the third brother.
After living in Fanghua Palace for a long time, the concubines in the palace have gradually regained their familiarity, but the most frequent person who comes to her is Princess Jingrong, and she stays for most of the day. Kang Yufei thought that she had not been close to her since she was a child, and she didn't know where she liked this princess. But after all, she is a princess, every time she comes, Kang Yufei still has to do her best to socialize.
The snow on the night before slowly melted, and the weather was very cold, Kang Yufei and Princess Jingrong sat by the stove and did their own work. The princess of Jingrong mainly embroidered a magnificent picture of the Chaoyang rivers and mountains, saying that it was a New Year's gift to his father. Kang Yufei is not very good at female red, she just wants to simply embroider a veil and deal with it.
"Sister, this is not right, you are too casual to walk the needle. The prince's brother disliked the uneven veils the most. ”
Kang Yufei was already bored with embroidery, so he simply threw it away, "Forget it, I'll write a sub-word and send it to him." ”
"Sister......" Jing Rong smiled sneeringly, "Sister loves to tell jokes." This gift has already been told to the prince's brother, how can it be exchanged. ”
Kang Yufei frowned, although she was unhappy in her heart, she still squeezed a smile for her. At the beginning, Yu Fei didn't say what gift she wanted to give to the prince, this princess had to go to the prince to open this mouth, and now, she has to carry herself to toss these, which doesn't make people feel depressed.
"My craft is not as good as that of a princess, and I'm afraid it will be a shame to take it out."
"So I'm here to teach you, you listen to me, do it well, Brother Prince will like it."
Kang Yufei didn't seem to have a way out when she heard her tone, so she had to pick up the needle and thread again.
In winter, his hands are always frozen and stiff, and Kang Yufei doesn't embroider for long, so he always puts his hands on the stove, which can be regarded as looking for an opportunity to be lazy. She always silently muttered in her heart, come and save her personally, even if it is the prince.
