"What's your name?" The princess didn't care about the dirt in front of the child at all, took his hand and bowed her head and asked.

"I, I don't have a name......" The child looked at her timidly, as if he hadn't realized that he had been bought.

And all this was seen by the princess in her eyes and hurt in her heart, she touched his hair, "Child, from today on, you will be called Ruzhen." ”

"Hmm!" Ruzhen nodded vigorously, seemingly very satisfied with her new name.

Zhong Xiaoshu silently watched the interaction between the two of them on the side, only to feel that his mother's love was about to overflow, "Okay, then since the matter is settled, let's go back to the house first." ”

The three of them returned to the house slowly, staring at a bun shop on the way, and the princess bought it for him without saying a word.

"You said that today is a coincidence, if we don't meet this child, I'm afraid he will be beaten to death." Zhong Xiaoshu felt a chill in his heart when he thought of the man throwing the whip hard.

Thinking that this might happen everywhere, Zhong Xiaoshu sighed for no reason.

"No, he's still really pitiful, you see, this arm is full of scars." The princess lifted the child's clothes, only to find that his body was covered with dense scars, which was shocking to look at.

Zhong Xiaoshu got angry this time, "It's really not a person, if you beat a child like this, you're not afraid of retribution!" ”

The two scolded there for a long time, and finally they were both tired and drank a sip of water, and Zhong Xiaoshu realized that the sky was already a little dark.

"It's not early, I should go, I'll come to see you in two days." Zhong Xiaoshu packed up the food box, and saw that Ruzhen's big eyes were full of doubts, and his heart was suddenly full of love.

"Ruzhen, you are obediently here, I will come to see you when I have time."

After finishing speaking, Zhong Xiaoshu left the palace by herself, originally the princess had to let Shen Mu send her, but she insisted that she didn't need to, waved her hand and left.

When I returned to the palace, it was already completely dark, and I saw that the oil lamp in the study was still on.

She cautiously opened the door, revealing a small head inside, "Haven't you finished reading it yet?" ”

"You know that when you come back, I've read this book seventy or eighty times."

Zhong Xiaoshu knew that he was exaggerating, glanced at him with a smile, and ran to beat his back and pinch his shoulder.

"It is basically certain that King Leng is the remnant of the concubine." The expression on Yin Zhige's face was still very excited, because he had been in the study for several days, and finally had a result.

He dared to pack a ticket, this Leng Wang must be the concubine's person.

"Why?"

He touched his chin, "Twenty years ago, after the death of the dust king, there was a cold king inexplicably, although he never seemed to have intersected with the concubine, but no matter how deep he hid, there were still flaws." ”

Seeing the deep meaning on Yin Zhige's face, Zhong Xiaoshu also felt that his appetite was aroused by him, and immediately hurriedly asked, "What is the flaw?" ”

"Five years ago, the concubine almost died in the prison, but three days later, she came back to life, and no one knew the whereabouts of King Leng for those three days."

Yin Zhige was almost sure that King Leng must have gone to save the concubine, but he was afraid that because of the suddenness of the incident, he was not prepared and wiped everything clean.

He probably didn't expect that someone would find out about this five years later, right?

"You're so smart." Zhong Xiaoshu praised him happily.

Yin Zhige was in a good mood, so he naturally nodded in response.

"Have you eaten yet?" Zhong Xiaoshu touched her stomach, as if she was a little hungry all the way.

I saw Yin Zhige indifferently take out a piece of mung bean cake from the small box next to him, "I know that you haven't eaten enough in the palace." ”

When Zhong Xiaoshu saw the mung bean cake, he immediately gave Yin Zhige a look that you still know me, holding the mung bean cake is gnawing.

When Zhong Xiaoshu was full of food and drink, he yawned lazily, "Yin Zhige, do you feel particularly sleepy?" ”

Yin Zhige almost didn't want to support his forehead, "What kind of life are you doing?" Want to sleep when you're full? ”

"I can't deny it." Zhong Xiaoshu carried Yin Zhige back to the house and slept until dawn.

And as soon as she touched the side of herself, she found that there was nothing, and she suddenly opened her eyes in surprise, and when she got out of bed, she saw the note that Yin Zhige left for her:

"I'm going to the court, I'm busy today, I'm going to come back in the middle of the night, don't worry."

Zhong Xiaoshu scratched her head, and it took her a long time to react, and her first thought was: No one to eat with her today?

She frowned a little bitterly, it is not a matter of going to the palace this old age, the king of Qingchuan and others will make some articles about this matter and talk about it to the court, and those who don't know think that the relationship between the two of them is not good.

So Zhong Xiaoshu had no choice but to clean himself up, rubbed his shoulders, and planned to go around the palace.

And just as she opened the door, the eunuch at the door startled her.

She calmed down, "What are you guys?" ”

"Imperial Princess, the Ninth Princess invited the Imperial Concubine to her palace to attend a banquet." The eunuch handed over a red book, Zhong Xiaoshu touched it, thinking that the ancients still had invitations?

Seeing that Zhong Xiaoshu only paid attention to the red box, the eunuch wiped the sweat on his head and repeated what he had just said.

Only then did Zhong Xiaoshu come back to his senses, regain his composure, and follow the eunuch to the Ninth Princess.

This ninth princess, Zhong Xiaoshu only knows a little about her.

I heard that she herself is very high, and she has never had too much intersection with outsiders, coincidentally, the biological mother of the nine princesses also died early, but her biological mother died because of dystocia.

So the ninth princess has never seen her biological mother, and has been raised under the hands of the eighth prince's biological mother.

And the emperor is not salty or indifferent to the ninth princess, and he has never rewarded or punished.

Or maybe the ninth princess has never done anything outstanding or ignorant.

Along the way, Zhong Xiaoshu was trying to recall everything about the Nine Princesses, and just such a little news was seen when Yin Zhige was in the study, and in most cases, the existence of the Nine Princesses was almost zero.

However, it is said that she was born very beautiful, very similar to her biological mother's eyes, very cold.

The more she thought about it, the more depressed Zhong Xiaoshu became, she couldn't understand how the nine princesses would invite her to the banquet? Obviously, the ninth princess has always been unkind to others.

While she was thinking, the carriage stopped.

After getting out of the carriage, Zhong Xiaoshu looked up at the mahogany gate in front of him, and after pushing it open, he found that many people were inside, noisy.

Zhong Xiaoshu subconsciously frowned, she has never liked this kind of atmosphere very much, and everyone is like something.

Just when she wanted to turn around and leave, a familiar voice came, "Imperial Princess, why are you here?" ”
