Since An Ruyi saw the prince that day, she was very afraid of receiving his invitation again, but fortunately, she was safe and sound for a few days, and she was also relieved.

On the day of his birth, the porter sent a letter, and An Ruyi was startled when she heard that it was for herself, and she didn't let go until she opened it. She never thought that the first person to come here to find herself was not Lin Xin, not the prince, nor Lin Yi and Lin Yue, who had already met, but Lin Ping.

If you want to say how much friendship you have with Lin Ping, in fact, it is not true, the two are the same age, and they used to quarrel a lot. Today he wanted to invite, but he didn't know why, or it was not necessary for Lin Xin to invite him in the name of Lin Ping. Thinking like this, I felt that it might be Lin Xin, but I was in a hurry to dress up before going out to the appointment.

However, when she got there, she was sure that it was really Lin Ping, not Lin Xin.

Lin Ping saw the disappointment on An Ruyi's face, don't think that the eldest brother is here, can't it, it was clearly written, she invited her to come. Looking at her like this, she has really become a beauty, and if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sees it, he may not be moved.

Lin Ping said as he got up, "I heard that the daughter of the An family became a great beauty, and I didn't believe it at first, but when I saw it today, I knew that the rumors were true." ”

An Ruyi had to smile bitterly and replied, "Do people in the world only look at the surface? ”

"A lot of people in the world look at the surface first, and then they understand." After Lin Ping motioned for An Ruyi to sit down, he also sat down, "Just like if you see a very cute cat, you will want to raise it, and when you raise it, you will slowly find out whether it is a good cat or a bad cat, it is possible to keep it, you find that you don't like it as much as before, and you think it's not as cute as when you first saw it." ”

An Ruyi chuckled, "You are still the same as before, you like to say things out of tune." ”

"Why is this out of tune, what I said is a bit more popular, but it is also true." Lin Ping said, and poured tea for An Ruyi again.

"Tell me what to do." An Ruyi is like going back to getting along with Lin Ping in the past, and she is not polite to speak. Because Lin Ping always provoked her in the past, the two of them quarreled as soon as they met, and they often spoke not very politely.

"Hehe, I didn't hear that there was a big beauty in Huacheng, I haven't seen any big beauty, so I'll take a look." Lin Ping said informally. Today he just wants to see what this An Ruyi looks like, whether it is really possible for the prince to be elected, and he also wants to ask if An Ruyi is bent on entering the prince's mansion, if she wants to enter, then it will be fine, that is, if she does not enter, then he will listen to the eldest brother and think of a way to see if he can help her lose the election.

"You're just going to make fun of me." An Ruyi was more comfortable in front of Lin Ping.

"Then let's stop talking nonsense and get down to business." Lin Ping finally had such a day of leisure, and he didn't want to waste it, so he said rightly.

"Business?" An Ruyi wondered, didn't you come to persuade yourself to stay away from Lin Xin? "Is it to keep me away from your big brother? Don't worry, we met by chance in the temple that day and never met again. ”

"I don't care if you and my eldest brother see each other or not, you two are adults, you should know what to do and what not to do. Now that you have entered this Chaoyue City as a show girl, the draft will be held next month, if you want to kill the eldest brother at this time, you can go to him. ”

"Ah Ping, you still hate it so much. While saying that I couldn't control it, I said that if I wanted to harm him, I would go to him. After all, isn't it just that I won't be allowed to see him? An Ruyi also knew in her heart that it was really difficult for her to see him now.

"Come on, let's not talk about these things, I just want to ask you, do you want to enter the prince's mansion?" Lin Ping asked directly, this woman's mind is not easy to guess, it is better to ask directly.

"This is what your eldest brother meant, let you ask me?" An Ruyi wanted to know if Lin Xin cared if she couldn't enter the prince's mansion.

"That's what I'm going to ask myself." Lin Ping replied, after all, he couldn't let An Ruyi know that the eldest brother still cared about her now, if she knew that the eldest brother still liked her, she was afraid that with her temperament, she would not be able to help but see the eldest brother.

"Oh, what are you asking for?" An Ruyi asked disappointedly.

"Naturally, it's for the sake of our friendship to see if we can help you. If you want to get in, I'll try to let you in, and if you don't want to, I'll try to make you lose. Lin Ping pretended to be relaxed and said, it's just that this matter is so easy, whether he is elected or not is the prince's business, how can he have such a great ability to influence the prince's thoughts?

"Hehe, it's like you can decide whether you choose or not." An Ruyi knew that this matter was not so simple, so she smiled and said, "I naturally don't want to enter this prince's mansion, but if I am really chosen, I can only accept my fate." ”

"Alas, I've always hated that you accept your fate when you open and close your mouth at every turn, the so-called things are man-made, if you really don't want to, let's find a way to make you lose the election."

"Do you have a way?" An Ruyi hurriedly asked.

Lin Ping looked at her and said, "I'll tell you the truth, don't be unhappy, with your background, the chance of being selected is still small, after all, your background is not high." It's just that with your appearance, it's easy to attract attention, and I don't dare to guarantee that the prince won't be fascinated by your beauty. So, it's not enough for you to dress up ugly. ”

An Ruyi heard him say this, and smiled helplessly, "If you had told me this a few days ago, I would still have listened to your opinion." Only now, it's late. ”

When Lin Ping heard this, he asked suspiciously, "Why is this, why is it late, this draft will only start next month." ”

An Ruyi took a sip of tea and took a deep breath before saying, "Because I have already met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." ”

Lin Ping didn't expect that this An Ruyi would meet the prince, it was unreasonable, she was a county lady with a low background, and she was not familiar with the life in Chaoyue City, how could she meet His Royal Highness the prince.

"Don't you think it's impossible?" An Ru saw Lin Ping's look of disbelief, and then said, "Speaking of which, even I don't believe it, if I really want to say when I will meet him, it should be the day I met Sister Yue." He came to talk to me that day, but I didn't pay much attention to him, and I didn't know that he was the prince. It was only when we met again a few days ago that he revealed his identity as the crown prince, and I only found out. ”

Lin Ping didn't expect that he was a step late, and he only saw this An Ruyi after the prince, alas, it seems that this matter is a bit difficult to do.

An Ru was silent when he saw Lin Ping, so he smiled bitterly, "Do you think this matter is difficult to do, what will you tell me about it now?" ”

Lin Ping opened his mouth, waiting to refute, but he felt that he didn't have any good ways at the moment, and he was powerless to refute it.

"Ah Ping, if you have this heart, I am very grateful, but now that things have come to this point, I dare not say that I will definitely be selected, but I have asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to remember, and there is no guarantee that I will not be selected. I want to open it too, so let's just let it be. After all, this kind of thing, how can we control it? ”

Seeing her say this, Lin Ping couldn't help but smile bitterly, "I wanted to help you, but I didn't want to let you comfort me." ”

"Today, when our two old friends meet, just chat, don't talk about these unhappy things." An Ruyi sorted out her mood, "The last time I met Sister Yue, I didn't have time to chat for a while, but today we can have a good chat." ”

"Okay, let's not care about the first, let's talk about how you've lived in the past few years, but you're still living like before." Lin Ping has a more bold temperament, he doesn't like women to be knowledgeable like his mother, not to say that he doesn't like women to be knowledgeable, but he doesn't like them to be raised in a regular manner, he thinks that women should be like their own little sisters, have their own ideas, have their own hobbies, not like other women who only know how to insist on learning the so-called female virtues.

"You, you are well-born and comfortable, I don't blame you for not being able to understand us, but you don't always think about leading me astray. I can't compare to my sister. An Ruyi replied. In the past, when he was in Chaoyue City, Lin Ping just didn't like to be as strict with himself as a lady, and always liked to pull himself around like Lin Yue. And she didn't dare to be as comfortable as Lin Yue, so she always resisted. This caused the two of them to quarrel as soon as they met.

Lin Ping remembered that Lin Yue dared to calculate King Xiaoyao and personally destroy her relationship with the Fifth Prince, which ordinary people would not dare to do. I really want to tell An Ruyi, if you can successfully lead you back, maybe you will dare to resist as bravely as my sister, and now it may be my sister-in-law.

"I'm not so capable of biasing you." Lin Ping sighed.

"Okay, let's not talk about these unhappy things, let's talk, are you married?"

"I'm not in a hurry, I want to live a few more years. Look at you women, it's too troublesome, once you marry back, don't you all like to take care of your husband all day long, so I don't want to marry someone to come back and take care of me now. Lin Ping said with a frown. Fortunately, his mother let him marry someone who was not too high, preferably from a soldier's family. This is a good thing for him, he can choose one that doesn't need to be knowledgeable, as long as he has a good temperament.

"When you grow up, don't you have to talk about marriage? If you're not in a hurry, your family isn't in a hurry. ”

"Alas, let's talk about it, what are you doing with this, let's not talk about Xiao Yi and Yue'er over the years." Lin Ping felt that it was more interesting to talk about the troubles of his younger brothers and sisters.

So the next time was spent happily in Lin Ping's constant talk about Lin Yi and Lin Yue's troubles.

When it was getting late, Lin Ping rented a car and sent An Ruyi back.
