Chu Wangfu, Bathing Light Palace.

The ink ingots slipped from their slender fingers, staining their white palms.

Instant Rain frowned in annoyance, and brought a handkerchief to clean his hands.

Before the case, His Royal Highness the King of Chu flipped through the book and wrote, and asked casually: "Why are you absent-minded?" ”

Instant rain was slightly startled, followed by a coquettish flat mouth.

"Your Highness," said the delicate voice, which was filled with complaints, "the decree of marriage has been handed down for several days, and you are not in any hurry?" ”

Although she has lived in the northern fiefdom with her master for many years, she has always been a listener. In the past few days since returning to Beijing, she has already understood the situation of those big families in the dusty capital. And the five girls of the Xiang family are notoriously arrogant and domineering, and they are just from a good background, how can such a person be worthy of His Royal Highness?

"Heh, the Holy Decree ......" Xiao Di smiled softly, casually, "He can't accept each other for a while, and I don't need to marry Xiang Yinghuai for a while, what's the hurry." ”

Pei Yao died on the last day of Yanping's fourth year, Chinese New Year's Eve. Xiao chased her, he has not accepted anyone in the past three years, and now there is one month left before the Chinese New Year's Eve, with his nature, he will always let his affectionate appearance start and end.

Although Instant Rain felt reasonable, but in the end, he was suspenseful, and asked, "Then you have to do something, right?" ”

Xiao Di put down the scroll.

Raising his eyes to look at Instant Rain, he probed and smiled: "Didn't you always disapprove of this king marrying Xiang Yu as a concubine, why are you so concerned at this time?" ”

Instant Rain sighed, "The slave is not happy!" Just thinking about that girl's name makes me feel uncomfortable! Your Royal Highness, you said, it is also their family's surname that catches up, what is the surname is not good for the surname 'Xiang', and the family can only be like others when they arrive? It's a loss to live! ”

Xiao Di snorted, and tapped his long finger on the desk: "Talk about the point." ”

Instant rain stopped, paused, and said seriously: "My cousin said, what kind of god stick national teacher returned to Beijing on the front foot, and the emperor wanted to marry that girl on the back foot, most of the purpose is not pure, if it is a good thing, then naturally my master should get it!" ”

"Cousin, cousin......" Xiao Di joked: "You listen to what your cousin says?" ”

Instant Rain's eyes rolled smartly, and he immediately smiled and said, "The slave maid listens to my Royal Highness the most!" ”

He sneered, didn't speak again, and listened to the instant rain again: "Besides, you don't want it, if others want to snatch it, it will never happen!" ”

"Eh, you're wrong!" Xiao Di corrected: "This time it wasn't him who robbed me, I robbed him." ”

While he was talking, the maid outside spread the word that her cousin had arrived.

Xiao Di glanced at the instant rain and quipped, "Oh, your Cao Cao is here." ”

Not long after, Li Lin entered the room, dressed in an arrow sleeve suit, his eyebrows and eyes were cold and handsome, neat and deep.

"Brother."

He saluted respectfully to Xiao Di, and then said: "The younger brother has already met with the eldest grandson, and he also told him what you mean, but he still refuses to express his position, and proposes to meet with you." ”

"Eldest grandson!?" Xiao Di didn't speak yet, but Instant Yu was taken aback first, "Is it the envoy sent by the Zhou State to ask for relatives?" ”

Could it be that His Highness intends to reverse the matter through external forces?

Xiao Di's request for the eldest grandson Ji was not surprising. He bowed his head and said, "It's not difficult to meet, you just go and arrange it." ”

Li Xiao received the order, hesitated for a moment, and still said: "After all, the eldest grandson Ji is an important minister of the Zhou State and a loyal minister, and since my brother is determined to entrust him with this matter, he should also take precautions." ”

"Don't worry." Xiao Di got up, pushed open the west window, and stood with his hands in his hands.

The sky was low in twilight, and there were waves surging, as if it was about to snow again.

He said, "He didn't dare." ”
