Nan'an Hou said by the way that Emperor Chu appointed his eldest son to report to the palace guards after returning to the imperial capital, and Duan Shaolan was really happy for him when he found out. You must know that the imperial examination has always been the way for the children of poor families to advance, and most people from high-ranking families will not choose to squeeze this single-plank bridge with tens of thousands of people in the world.

Jinqiwei has been running errands for Emperor Chu all the year round, and if he is really capable, he will naturally have many more chances to be promoted in the Jinqiwei than in the palace guard.

However, the palace guards can appear more in front of Emperor Chu's eyes, in short, whether it is the Jinqi guard or the palace guard, it is a good place to go.

After sending off Nan'an Hou's father and son, Duan Shaolan came back.

"Someone sent away?" Xiao Xuan had just finished drinking a full bowl of bitter medicine, and frowned as Duan Shaolan came back.

"Hmm." Duan Shaolan sat down in front of Xiao Xuan again. "Your Majesty has appointed Nan Anhou's eldest son to enter the palace guard."

"Oh, it's rare for my father to take the initiative to ask someone to enter the palace guard."

The palace guards and the pennant guards are directly under the jurisdiction of Emperor Chu, but the palace guards are fully responsible for guarding the safety of the palace city, because they are closer to the emperor, and the criteria for selecting people are much stricter than those of the palace guards.

Xiao Xuan vaguely remembered that before the accident yesterday, someone came to report that yesterday's first name was Nan'an Hou's eldest son.

"His mother has been friends with her for many years, and he used to play in our house when he was a child." Lu Lin brought Xiao Xuan preserved fruit, Duan Shaolan took it, chose a piece and sent it to Xiao Xuan's mouth. "Our riding and archery kung fu was all enlightened by Uncle Lian. He has good talent and is willing to work hard, and Uncle Lian praises him much more than me. Otherwise, the children of the family who were a few years older than him yesterday would not have been able to win against him, so that he would be able to take the first place, so that he could stand out in front of His Majesty. ”

"Oh, I also know something about Nan'an Hou, his family's conditions are not outstanding in the clan, but he has been very popular for generations." Xiao Xuan had preserved fruit in his mouth, and the sweet and sour taste gradually spread in his mouth, dispelling the bitter taste of the decoction in his mouth. "I've seen a girl from his family, who is generous and dignified, and can get along with anyone. In this way, the eldest son of his family should be good, otherwise his father would not have taken a fancy to him. ”

Xiao Xuan obediently rested in the tent for several days, and then he was almost recovered. For the first two days, Duan Shaolan was talking with Xiao Xuan in the tent, for fear that she would be bored sitting alone in the tent.

Later, Xiao Xuan came out with him, the spring hunt was a rare opportunity to socialize, Duan Shaolan participated in the spring hunt as a colt for the first time, and he couldn't stay in the tent all the time and not go out.

"You accompany my sixth brother out hunting, you don't have to stay by my side every day." The small wounds on Xiao Xuan's body and side of her face were actually gone, and even the imperial doctor said that she could go out and walk around. It's just that the scabs of the wound haven't fallen off yet, and she doesn't want to go out for people to see. "I still have green forests and oranges around me to talk to me."

"Okay, I got it." Duan Shaolan naturally came with Xiao Xuan in his mouth.

As a result, early the next morning, Duan Shaolan went to find Xiao Jun. Xiao Jun listened to the report of the attendants outside his tent, and hurriedly asked people to welcome Duan Shaolan into his tent.

Xiao Jun hadn't been up for a long time, and when Duan Shaolan came in, he had just changed his clothes.

"Haven't you always been by Xuan'er's side?" Xiao Jun asked him suspiciously. "Why did you come to me early this morning, is there something going on?"

"It's okay, the princess probably dislikes me, and she got up early in the morning and brought me over to find His Highness." Duan Shaolan smiled helplessly and said. "Say that spring hunting is rare, let His Highness take me to hunt."

Speaking of which, Duan Shaolan is actually not the first time to participate in the spring hunt, but in the past, he followed the royal car as a banner guard, and he had his own errands to be busy.

"That's right, I accompanied my father a few days ago, and I saw that my second brother was also by my father's side every day, and I happened to be too lazy to go again." Xiao Jun patted his thigh and said. "Since you are here, accompany me out to run horses, you have heard that you are also very busy in the military department for a while, take advantage of the rare opportunity to relax and relax."

Xiao Xuan, who was in the tent, saw that Duan Shaolan was finally leaving, and hurriedly asked Lu Lin to bring the mirror.

"Princess, when the imperial doctor left yesterday, he specially instructed the slaves and maids, saying that the slaves and maids should not move the scars on your face when they looked at you." Seeing that Xiao Xuan took the mirror and looked at his face, and his hand was eager to touch his face, Dan Tang hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him. "Beware of scarring."

"Oh, I don't move, I'm just touching it." Xiao Xuan's face has a lot of small wounds cut by tree branches, although the wounds are shallow, but because there are too many of them, they are still a little scary to look at, Xiao Xuan endured for several days without looking in the mirror. "You tell me the truth, does my face look ugly?"

Because of the scar, not only does it look a little scary, but it also feels numb.

"Princess, the imperial doctor said that your wound is shallow, and the scar will fall off in two days." Green Forest also stepped forward and said. "The princess is naturally beautiful, where can it be ugly?"

"I don't believe it, you're all coaxing me." As she spoke, Xiao Xuan gently exerted force on her hand, and a small piece of jet-black scab shell fell down and landed on her body.

Xiao Xuan jumped by herself, quickly picked up the mirror again, and looked at it carefully for a while before she smiled with satisfaction.

The scab had already loosened a lot, and after it fell, the skin underneath was as smooth as new.

Dan Tangerine and Green Forest came over to take a look, and then they were relieved.

"The princess can rest assured now, right?" Green Forest quipped.

Xiao Xuan looked in the mirror and nodded beautifully.

After Xiao Xuan woke up from the lunch break in the afternoon, he saw Duan Shaolan coming back with a teenage boy by his side.

"Hey, whose child is this?" Xiao Xuan got up and asked. "Why did you go out with the sixth brother and didn't see any prey hunted back, but abducted someone else's child back."

"This is the fourth son of Nan'an Hou's family, called Brother Xiao'er, when I came back, I saw this child circling around our tent, and there was no one with him, so I brought him back." When Duan Shaolan came back, the kid was lying outside the tent and looking inside. "Let people go to the camp in Nan'an and wait for a notice."

"Yes, Greenwood." Xiao Xuan thought not to let people think that the child was lost, and called through the green forest. "Let the attendants outside take you to the camp tent of Nan'an Hou's house, and say that the little young master from their house has come to my camp, so don't worry about it."

Green Forest nodded, turned around and went out.

"It's the first time I've seen you." Xiao Xuan sat at the head of the bed and beckoned to Brother Xiao. "Come and sit with me, do you like snacks, I don't have anything else to entertain you here, these can be enough."

Brother Xiao glanced up at Duan Shaolan, and saw Duan Shaolan nodding at him, so he took small steps and small steps to Xiao Xuan's bed.

"Your Royal Highness, I'm sorry." Brother Xiao blushed embarrassedly, grabbed his clothes in his hand, and said in a low voice. "It's because I'm playful and I have to shoot the honeycomb that you get hurt."

"You're here to say this?" Xiao Xuan laughed and asked. "Just to say I'm sorry, did you come to my tent alone?"

"Well, Your Highness Princess, I've actually wanted to come for a long time." Brother Xiao looked at the kind smile on Xiao Xuan's face, and plucked up the courage to say. "But my father and brother both said that Her Royal Highness the princess was going to recuperate from her wounds, and I was not allowed to come and disturb her. I waited for several days, and it happened that my father and brother were out today, so I came while the attendants in the house were not paying attention. ”

"I accept your apology." Xiao Xuan patted the vacant seat next to the bed and said. "I'm bored recuperating from my injuries, so you just sit down to eat and talk with me, and it will be your apology, okay?"

Brother Xiao was stunned for a moment, nodded again and again after reacting, and then sat on the edge of Xiao Xuan's bed.

After saying a few words to Xiao Xuan, he left behind his first restraint and timidity, and became much more lively.

He also ate a lot of dim sum and preserved fruits that Xiao Xuan asked people to bring, and his little head shook happily.

"How long have you been practicing riding and shooting, the wild honeycomb is very strong, you can shoot down, it seems that you are still quite powerful at a young age."

"Hehe, I started practicing with my brother when I was seven years old." Brother Xiao listened to Xiao Xuan's praise, scratched his head shyly and said. "But I'm not that good, I just wanted to have fun, my brother said that I was young and didn't necessarily shoot the honeycomb, but that day I shot down all at once. At that time, I was scared to death when I saw the wild bees running out all at once, and my brother reacted quickly and took me to run a long way, and rushed into the pond to avoid the wild bees. ”

"Is that so? Then you have to listen to your brother obediently next time, and you can't mess around anymore. Xiao Xuan took his hand and showed it to Brother Xiao'er. See the wound on my hand? It was all wild bee sting, and it hurt at the time, and the doctors even took out the chela needle of the wild bee from it. ”

"Really?" Brother Xiao was taken aback by Xiao Xuan's words, and the little fat hand stretched out, gently stroked Xiao Xuan's wound, and asked cautiously with concern. "Then will Her Royal Highness still hurt now?"

"It doesn't hurt now." Xiao Xuan shook his head and said with a smile. "But you have to remember that the next time you see a wild beecomb, you are not allowed to come forward to play, you must remember to avoid it, it's not good for you to be stung by wild bees when you are young, have you made a note of it?"

"Uh-huh, Your Highness Princess, I wrote it down." Brother Xiao'er's eyes widened and nodded at Xiao Xuan.

"Just write it down." Xiao Xuan pushed the dim sum plate in front of Brother Xiao again. "Let's eat a little more."

After almost half a cup of tea, Brother Xin, the eldest son of Nan'an Hou, who rushed to hear the news, came and asked to see Xiao Xuan outside his tent.

"I've seen my brother." After a while, Duan Shaolan sent out Brother Xiao'er, who was bulging in his mouth, and Brother Xin hurriedly greeted Duan Shaolan.
