Rong Ruo said: "The intention of the emperor and the empress dowager, the minister is grateful in his heart, if there is a favorite woman in the general election next year, Rong Ruo will ask the emperor for a reward." ”

Kangxi laughed when he heard this, and said cheerfully: "Okay! If you come to the draft next year, no matter whose girl you have your eye on, I will definitely reward you. ”

Rong Ruo was overjoyed, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”

Coming out of the Qianqing Palace, Rong Ruo never felt that the sky was so blue, the wind was so cool, the flowers were so fragrant, and the sun was so bright, as if everything in the world had become infinitely beautiful.

Gu Zhenguan held the music box in his arm, and walked to the opposite side of Rong Ruo's head, seeing Rong Ruoxing running in a hurry, he was about to speak, but he saw Rong Ruo as if he regarded him as air, and ran over from his side.

Gu Zhenguan's mouth was open like an egg, standing on the ground, looking at Rong Ruo, who was running away, and her heart was inexplicable: What is the situation? It's hard to get up again.

Rong Ruofei ran out of the palace, snatched the reins from Xiao Anzi's hand, flew on the horse, and didn't care about changing the court clothes, so he rode away. Xiao Anzi didn't have time to get on the horse, so he shouted anxiously: "Lord, master, don't you go home?" ”

Rong Ruo smiled and turned around and said, "You go back first, I have more important things to do!" ”

Before Xiao Anzi could speak again, Rong Ruo's horse had turned into a small dot and disappeared around the corner.

At this time, in the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of War, Huai Sleeve was sitting idly under the maple tree in the courtyard reading a book, in the calm courtyard, the breeze gently blew down the fiery red maple leaves, and fell on the pages of the book in Huai Sleeve's hand.

Suddenly, Su'er's voice came from his ears, "Hey, Lord Rong, Rong ......" was about to turn his head to look at Huai Sleeve, but he saw a dark blue figure embroidered with python patterns on his chest, and in a blink of an eye, he shook in front of him, and before she could speak, Rong Ruo pulled up his hand and said, "Follow me!" ”

Huai Sleeve didn't have time to speak, he was dragged by Rong Ruo to the stable, got on the horse, Rong Ruoce whipped the horse, ran out of the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of War, and ran along the street to the south city gate.

"What do you do! Every time I come to my house, I hold the hand of the son and drag the son away. Huai Sleeve was still angry with Rong Ruo because of the separation last time, and when he saw him suddenly running out with him, he couldn't help but say angrily.

Rong Ruo just smiled at her, there was infinite warmth in his eyes, but he didn't say a word, his arm tightened his waist around her, and he rode faster. The two of them still came to the moat of that day, and Rong Ruo stopped and took his arms down.

Without waiting for the sleeve to open, Rong Ruo's arm tightened, and he attached his lips to the lips of the sleeve......

Huai Sleeve was stunned by this sudden action, only to feel that his lips were hot and hot, and there was a piece of wonton in his head, forgetting to struggle, his body was weak and weak, so he had to cling to Rong Ruo's arms, relying on his arms, barely to fall.

Rong Ruo didn't know how long it took to kiss before he let go of her, looking at the red lips in his arms, and a satisfied smile appeared in his eyes.

Huai Sleeve eased his mind slightly, and only then did he react, pushed Rong Ruo away, and turned around angrily. Rong Ruo went to hold her hand, but Huai Sleeve shook his hand and said angrily: "Since you want to enter the palace, why bother to provoke each other now!" As he spoke, he felt more and more aggrieved in his heart, and tears rolled down.

Rong Ruo smiled gently, and gently turned her body to face herself. raised his hand to wipe the tears on his sleeves and cheeks, and coaxed: "Silly girl, how can you marry me if you don't enter the palace?" ”

Huai Sleeve listened to his inexplicable words, and became even more ignorant.

Rong Ruo pulled his sleeve into his arms again, hugged him lightly and said: "You and I are both nobles of the Eight Banners, you know the rules set by the ancestors of the Qing Dynasty since they entered the customs, the women of the Eight Banners have not participated in the palace draft, and they can't be married to others in private, right?" ”

Huai Sleeve nodded, she naturally knew this.

"So you still have to go to the palace draft."

When Huai Sleeve heard Rong Ruo say this, he was about to open his mouth to refute, but Rong Ruo stretched out his index finger, gently put it on her lips, and said softly: "Shhh Don't worry, listen to me. I entered the palace today, and the emperor asked about my marriage, and said that he would give me a marriage in the spring draft next year, and I would choose the candidate for marriage, and at that time, I would ask the emperor to point you to me. ”

Hearing her say this, her tear-stained face was full of uncertainty, and she asked, "What you said is true?" ”

Rong Ruo doted on the tip of her nose and said with a smile: "This is a major event related to my life, what do you do?" ”

Huai Sleeve was stunned for a moment, only to feel that thousands of flowers bloomed in his heart, and he was filled with beauty and happiness for a while, and he almost forgot about his form with joy, and stood on tiptoe to peck a kiss on Rong Ruo's face.

Rong Ruo was stunned by her sudden move, but saw that her face was delicate, her eyes flashed in the autumn water, and she was particularly delicate and moving, and she hugged her sleeves into her arms with even more pity, and she only felt in her heart that if this life is like this at this moment, it is enough!

The two chatted for a long time, and when they rode back to the Shangshu Mansion of the Military Department, it was already the time to hold the lamp.

Rong Ruo got off the horse first, took his sleeve off the horse, and asked, "It's so late, do you want me to go in and talk to Master Ma." ”

"No, there is my second sister." Huai Sleeve smiled and waved his hand.

The two were talking, but they heard a woman's voice suddenly interjecting next to them: "Brother Rong Ruo!" ”

Rong Ruo and Huai Sleeve turned their heads at the same time in shock, and saw that it was Suo Etu's youngest daughter Baolan who came over.

"You go in first, it's not good for you to be recognized in this woman's clothes." Rong Ruo whispered in his ear with his sleeve.

Huai Sleeve nodded, she didn't want the relationship between the two to be known now, and she turned around and entered the gate of the mansion.

Rong Ruo led the horse, turned around and smiled at Baolan: "Baolan is still walking outside so late, beware of worrying about Suoxiang, and then I will be looking for people all over the city, go back quickly." ”

Bao Lan poked her neck into the gate of the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of War and asked, "Who went in just now?" I look like a woman. ”

"What kind of woman, it's dark and you can't see it." Rong Ruo smiled and turned around to get on the horse and leave.

"I clearly look like a woman, who is she?" Bao Lan twisted her temper, her face was full of jealousy, and she pulled Rong Ruo's horse reins and refused to let go.

Rong Ruo was helpless, and said with a smile: "What kind of woman, what you saw just now is Huai Gongzi, we happened to meet on the street, his horse was frightened, and I sent him back by the way." ”

Bao Lan still didn't believe it, pulled Rong Ruo's reins tightly, and said, "I don't believe it!" Why don't we go in and ask at this moment. ”

Rong Ruo heard her say this, and stroked her forehead helplessly. He didn't want to quarrel with Baolan at the door of the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of War, so he said: "It's late today, come back another day to find Gongzi Huai, I'll send you back." ”

When Baolan heard that Rong Ruo offered to send her back to the house in person, she immediately became overjoyed, and promised to release Rong Ruo's reins and get into her car.
