Chapter 20 I want to distinguish between the words and deeds
Xue Ke returned to the Baopu Courtyard and went upstairs, although the prince didn't say anything to her, his heart was up and down. When I returned to the study and lay on the bed, I also tossed and turned, while trying to get rid of those thoughts and not think about it, but I couldn't help but think about it carefully. couldn't help but touch his hand to his body, and suddenly remembered that when Xue Ke was injured that day, this hand pressed her body inch by inch, and he was just nervous at the time, but now that he thinks about it, he feels that his whole hand is also hot.
Xue Ke was thinking about another thing. In her last life, she remembered that the queen was looking for a princess for the prince at this time, and it was rumored that she was in love with Yang Xiangguo's granddaughter, and it was rumored that this Yang family girl was outstanding in appearance and temperament, and her guqin was even more superb. It's just that after the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner, news came that a granddaughter of Zhuang Daru was promised to the crown prince as the crown princess, and the Yang family did refer to the king of Qin as the princess. Later, I heard that the prince also loved this Zhuang family, and two years later, when the Zhuang family had a difficult birth and two lives, the prince also did a solemn ritual, and then he never married the main family. Xue Ke couldn't figure it out, the Yang family was at a time of prosperity, not only Yang Xiangguo responded to the call in the court, but also had many sons and nephews behind him, and his protégés were all over the world, how could the queen really be willing to point out the granddaughter of the Yang family to the prince? But what happened at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet that caused the prince to marry Zhuang? Although Zhuang's grandfather was also a famous Confucian scholar, he had passed away for a long time, and the family had declined, just an empty shelf.
It's just that now she is in the Baopu Courtyard, and there is no news. Thinking of Concubine Yang's favorite dim sum from Jufuyuan's house in her previous life, Xue Ke called Mama Zhang and asked her to go to Ermen to find a mother-in-law to buy some dim sum from Jufuyuan. Sure enough, on the third day, Xue Ke saw that Mama Zhang wanted to speak and stopped, and her face was wrong. Xue Ke asked on the side, and Mama Zhang also said that when her mother-in-law went to buy dim sum, she heard that the girl of the Yang family, who often went to Jufuyuan to buy dim sum, was summoned into the palace by the queen again, and heard that the queen intended to give her to the prince. Mama Zhang had already decided that the Tang girl she was serving and the prince were in love, and she couldn't help but worry about Xue Ke. She wanted to talk to the prince, but the prince didn't come over these days.
There is indeed another public case on the prince's side. The prince and several subordinates were entertaining in Renheju that day, and by chance he met Xiao Zhang Gongzi, who had something on his mind, so he grabbed Xiao Zhang Gongzi and the two of them to have a few drinks. After talking for a long time, Xiao Zhang Gongzi understood that the prince wanted to ask him how to kiss a woman. Of course, this is the right person, Xiao Zhang Gongzi told him that kissing is very skillful, how to practice for a long time to kiss the woman was fascinated, and before he finished speaking, he saw that the prince's expression changed greatly, and he was too lazy to take it on the daily coping, so he said goodbye without thinking.
Where can the prince take care of anything else, he only heard a few words of repeated practice for a long time, and then his head buzzed, who did she practice with? And with whom did you practice it?
Xue can see that the prince has not come over for a few days, and after dinner this day, he asked Ah Liu to inquire if the prince is back, Mama Zhang carefully picked out a newly made skirt, light purple lining, covered with tulle of the same color, rolling a dark purple edge, and found a string of Dongzhu necklaces and earrings, the whole person looked clean and hazy. Mama Zhang looked at it carefully, revealing a satisfied look. Ah Liu reported that the prince had returned in the evening and that he was eating. Xue Ke got up slowly: "Since His Highness can't come, Mama will accompany me to His Highness's place." ”
It's August, and the heat hasn't completely subsided, and when Xue Ke arrived, there was a little sweat on his forehead. The prince had already finished eating, probably knowing that she was coming, and placed teacups and some tea and ice fruits in the courtyard. Xing'er was lighting incense next to him, and a trace of green smoke was burning in the incense burner. The two stood under the porch and watched and did not speak. When the sky gradually darkened, the fragrance of osmanthus gradually dispersed, Mama Zhang and Xing'er retreated, and Xue Ke said softly: "Congratulations to Your Highness." ”
The prince raised his eyebrows: "Where does the joy come from?"
"It's been spread all over the market, and it is said that the queen wants to marry the granddaughter of Yang Xiangguo to His Royal Highness, I heard that Miss Yang is good-looking, talented, and has a better family background, isn't Your Highness happy?"
Only then did the prince smile a little: "These rumors are not true. The two of them were originally a distance of one person, and suddenly the prince leaned forward: "Ke'er, are you angry about this?" ”
