Seeing that they were all gone, Begonia quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Mrs. Sun also walked back, she chuckled and quipped: "There are so many fast sons-in-law who ride the dragon, which one does my daughter choose?" ”

"Stepmother~ Don't laugh at me!" Begonia said embarrassedly.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Sun admitted it: "Mrs. Shen also told me that she wants to make you and her family a couple!" Although Shen Dagongzi has not entered the ranks, the two boys of the Shen family have been on the gold list, and Shen Dagongzi has also studied Tanhua in high school. It's just that he has a childish temperament, saying that he can't get used to seeing the darkness of officialdom and is unwilling to enter the court as an official. Lord Shen saw that he was still young, and he was willing to train for a few more years, so he was left to mess around. ”

Mrs. Sun thought about it and laughed: "However, I think that Yu Shizi and Duan Wang are also quite interesting to you, I think, although your father wants to keep you for two more years, but you will marry sooner or later, and you don't have a mother to handle for you, and your stepmother should start planning for you early!" ”

Haitang secretly glanced at Xie Ruijiao, but she didn't expect that he was also looking at her.

When the banquet was over, not long after Haitang returned to Sun's mansion, Xie San flew in through the window. When he saw Begonia, she was standing at the table, holding the cloth on which the wine had been poured, and was squeezing the wine from the soaked cloth into a small glass. This is no ordinary cup, with several different metallic sheens in the fat white.

"How? Is there a problem? Xie San hugged her from behind, lowered his head and kissed her hair.

"As you might expect, the wine is indeed poisonous. The color of the wine is slightly yellower than the wine we drink today, tasteless, not contrasting, it is difficult to see that it is poisoned. Begonia shook the wine glass, only to see that several of the metal particles on the wall of the glass had changed color. Haitang looked at it carefully and said, "I think this should be poison." To confirm, it is necessary to test the alcohol in live and judge it based on the symptoms of poisoning. ”

Xie Ruijiao took down the ore cup in her hand, put it on the table, pushed it far away, and said: "Just know that it is poison, the poison is only available in the palace, but I just heard that there is a secret person in the palace called 'the poison', and they can make the poison." Now it is not a strange thing that a glass of wine appears at the palace banquet. ”

Haitang turned around in Xie San's arms, looked up at him and asked, "Did someone want to poison the prince, but almost killed King Kang by mistake?" ”

"Manslaughter? I used to think so, but when I see it with my own eyes today, I don't think so. It is true that someone wants to kill the prince, but the prince knows that he changed it to King Kang. Xie San frowned and said coldly:

"Today let me see the brotherhood of the prince clearly! I'd rather believe that he just suspects that it is poisonous, and in exchange for King Kang, it is just an additional layer of protection for him, but I don't want it to be the life of another innocent brother! Maybe I'm too naïve, how can I have brothers in front of the imperial power? ”

Haitang raised his hand gently, flattened his frowning brow with two fingers, and said with a smile: "You still have me, Rui Ji, I will accompany you." Hearing this, Xie San's face also softened, he took her hand, put it to his lips and kissed it: "Yes, fortunately, I still have you in this life." ”

After thinking about it, Xie San cupped her face and asked seriously: "I really wanted to hear what Mrs. Sun said just now, Shen Congxi made a couple?" Is your stepmother going to give you some mandarin duck scores? Could it be...... The king's intentions are not obvious enough? Looks like I'm going to have a showdown with your stepparents tomorrow!" ”

Haitang was disgusted: "This is just a joke from my stepmother, so why take it seriously?" Don't scare them. ”

Xie Ruijiao changed back to a smile, rubbed her head, and asked, "I heard Qing Yao say, you two are going to go to the horse farm to ride a horse?" ”

Haitang nodded: "Well, we've been talking for a long time, the gold bar has finished training and can be brought back...... Shizi ...... The elder brother of the county lord of Qingyao will also accompany us. That...... Can I go? ”

"Go, of course! Am I that stingy? Besides, the gold bars were given to you by your brother. I'll go with you, and by the way, you'll go to practice horseback riding. Xie Ruijiao smiled and said, "My cousin is a reclusive master. Others don't understand him, thinking that he is mediocre and waiting for death. But I know he's just hiding himself! ”

He explained: "The concubine asked you to go into the palace to teach musical instruments, and in the future, you must be careful when you enter the palace, and try not to eat anything in the palace." I will also go and tell my mother that if you need to rest or stay in the palace, go to Qinghe Palace. My chamberlain Chang Le, let him follow you, and there is also an errand messenger in the palace. ”

Haitang blushed and said, "I have nothing to do with you...... How can it be so obvious? ”

"Your brother and your brother-in-law are all my friends, they entrusted me to take care of you, and I asked my mother to concubine, what is there to say?" Xie Ruijiao watched Begonia's eyes widen and listened carefully, and kissed her forehead with a smile: "My Fair Lady, good gentleman." I will go and tell my mother that I am happy with you, and let her help me keep you! ”

"Huh?" Haitang was still nodding, but she reacted anxiously and shyly, and turned her head angrily: "You can't say that!" Look at you, the former sentence is good, and the latter sentence is not serious! ”

Xie Ruijiao looked at her as if she was looking for a hole to drill, and his heart was itching, and he couldn't help but hug her tighter. Begonia refused, and had to get out of his arms. Xie Ruijiao said seriously: "I'm leaving, can't I ask for a goodbye hug?" When Haitang heard this, he didn't move, just stood there with a smile and let him wrap himself in his warm arms.

A full moon hangs in the night sky like water, and the silver moonlight is like snow, making people forget the ugliness under the sun, leaving only ambiguous tenderness, permeating the world.
