"Why does Your Highness ask this?" Hui Li didn't answer directly, but wanted to know what Xiangtai was thinking, after all, her brother was working in the imperial court right now, no matter what the future holds, she couldn't talk nonsense and cause trouble to her brother.

Xiangtai smiled faintly: "Because I feel guilty about the horse and my family." I admire the horse for being able to put aside his prejudices and serve the court for the benefit of the people. ”

Hui Li asked again: "Then what does this have to do with it, how I think of the imperial court, it's even less important, isn't it?" ”

Xiangtai was anxious, countless words were entangled in his head, he didn't know what to say, but the only thing he wanted to say was to tell Huili that he liked her.

Hui Li saw that the four princes looked entangled, as if she really wanted to know the answer, since she was a child, her father and brother did not allow her to lie, although at this moment she should say some high-sounding words to perfunctory, but there is no reason, maybe she thinks that the four princes are not like bad people, she finally responded: "My father died in the hands of the imperial court, the imperial court made my Shending Village what it is now, and even I have to be restrained at home and not free, for the imperial court, I naturally hate it." If you say that you don't hate or resent, will you believe it, Your Highness? ”

Xiangtai looked at Huili in shock, but she said again: "Although my sister-in-law is a princess, she has nothing to do with the imperial court, so neither I nor my family will be angry with her, and we know this very clearly." We love and love our sister-in-law more than anyone else. Your Highness, if you are worried that the princess will be bullied in our family, then please rest assured, sister-in-law, she is very happy now. ”

In this way, Xiangtai fell into a contradiction, does that mean that he has nothing to do with the imperial court, after all, he is just a prince who has no real power, and the battle between the imperial court and Shendingzhai has nothing to do with him.

It was at this moment that the scholar came to invite the fourth prince and said that Mr. Wen could see him, so Hui Li said politely: "Your Highness, please also greet Mr. Wen on my behalf." ”

After saying these words, Hui Li was about to go out of the door, afraid that she would disturb the villa here, she was full of thought that the fourth prince asked those words, because she was worried that his imperial sister would be bullied in her own home, and she was not happy or unhappy, and she didn't take it seriously in her heart.

Walking out along the quiet and tactful corridor, admiring the flowers and plants planted under the corridor and the piled up rocks all the way, Hui Li gradually distracted her mind, and didn't think much about it, but she was in high spirits, and someone suddenly called her behind her, and there were only a few people in the capital who called her "Miss Liang", and it must be the Four Princes at this time.

Hui Li felt so strange, and when Xiangtai ran in front of her, she couldn't help asking, "What else is going on with Your Highness?" ”

I saw Xiangtai panting roughly, his face flushed, so that he would not be tired after running for such a distance, he must be nervous, his hands clenched his fists tightly, and finally spoke: "Miss Liang, I ...... Since I saw you in Weiyang Palace, I want to see you again all the time, but every time I see you, I don't know what to say incoherently, and the grievances between the court and Shendingzhai make me hesitate. I promised Zhuo Xi that he would be calm and cautious, but when he calmed down, he still only thought about you. ”

Finally saying these words, Xiangtai's complexion became calmer.

Huili looked at him in a daze, as if she was thinking about the meaning of these words, and when she came back to her senses, she couldn't help but be taken aback, and the girl with a hearty personality asked Xiangtai directly: "Your Highness, are you saying that you like me?" ”

Xiangtai nodded again and again, and said solemnly: "I like you, I like you from the first sight." But as if he was afraid that he would lose Huili if he took one more step, he just froze in place, and said, "I know that suddenly saying something like this will bother you." ”

At this time, the scholar came in a hurry, urging Xiangtai to see Mr. Wen, seeing that Xiangtai was embarrassed, Huili said: "Your Highness, go quickly, how to make the master wait for a long time." Seeing that Xiangtai couldn't let go of herself, she smiled: "But I can't think of what to say to you now." ”

"I'm sorry, I was presumptuous." Xiangtai is becoming more and more unconfident at the moment, and this time he is separated from Huili, and the next time unless he takes the initiative to meet, there will hardly be a chance to meet again, especially now that he has made everything clear.

The four princes finally left, and Huili walked to the gate of the villa alone, sat down in the pavilion in front of the door, and waited for Chiba to pick her up. But somehow, her heart couldn't calm down, she was so big, it was the first time she was confessed, and that person was still a prince. For the children of the cottage, the people in the royal family are very far away.

On this side, Chiba came to Uncle Guo's Mansion with gifts and cotton, while Chu Ge was secretly protecting her, and the people in Uncle Guo's Mansion couldn't see it. Chiba Luo came generously, even if Mrs. Han resented her son for going to save Chiba and was seriously injured, but she couldn't show her face with everyone's demeanor, and Uncle Han couldn't see her in the court, everyone was polite and polite, and they were about to disperse.

However, Han Jiye sent a message that he wanted to meet Chiba, and Chiba was favored by others, so he couldn't refuse, so he went to his bedroom with Mrs. Han.

Jiye had already heard that Chiba had shocked the ministers in the court yesterday, and he had been away for so long, he believed that Chiba could do it, but when he saw Chiba at this moment, he just wanted to tell her again that he didn't take saving her seriously, and even wanted to tell Chiba that he had let go of the past.

But if he said such straightforward words, he didn't say it after all, but like a brother, he said to Chiba: "My leg will be fine soon, if there is anything in the future, just come to me, I am still very polite between me and the concubine, in fact, between uncles and sons-in-law, they should also be like brothers." ”

Chiba is a smart person, and when she heard this, she understood in her heart that Han Jiye was hinting at her relationship with each other, and from now on she was just a cousin, Chiba smiled: "The horse has just arrived, and above the court, I hope my cousin will help him a lot." ”

Seeing Chiba's smile, Han Jiye was also happy from the bottom of his heart, the bedroom was not a place to speak, and in this Han Mansion, almost no one welcomed Chiba's arrival, so he didn't stay more Chiba and asked her to go back early.

Say goodbye to my cousin, Chiba went out to say goodbye to Mrs. Han, but when she saw Han's mother and daughter standing under the porch talking, the maid reminded Mrs. Han that the princess had come out, and Mrs. Han came forward with a smile on her face. But Han Yuerou followed behind her, as if she was sick, her complexion was very bad, and her expression and temperament were even more submissive and a little pitiful.

Chiba didn't want to be troubled, so naturally she wouldn't greet Han Yuerou, and left in a hurry after saying goodbye, she also had to go to Wenxian Villa to pick up Huili.

Chu Ge has been secretly protecting Chiba, and after she left the Han Mansion, she appeared beside Chiba, and Chiba said apologetically: "Actually, the people of the Han Mansion will not treat me well, they always ask you to protect me so hard, Dingshan He is too careful." ”

"Now the affairs of Shendingzhai are not as troublesome as when I first came to the capital, I am idle and fine, I can only feel at ease when I come out of Dingshan with you, this little thing is not hard." Chu Ge said nonchalantly, but she was protecting Qianye in the dark, and saw something strange, the first time she saw Han Yuerou was in front of the Shenshan Hou Mansion, at that time, the bright and noble daughter lady had left an impression on her, but she didn't expect to be so pitiful when she turned her back, Chu Ge said, "The daughter of this family was born to a concubine?" ”

Qianye shook his head and said: "The eldest lady was born to her aunt and has already been married, Han Yuerou and Han Jiye are brother and sister. ”

Chu Ge smiled: "That's strange, just now you were talking to Han Jiye inside, and Mrs. Han reprimanded her daughter under the corridor, saying what boldness, what wishful thinking, how could her biological mother say such a thing." ”

With Chiba's understanding of the Han Mansion, such a thing would not happen, but Cotton also said on the side: "Princess, you are talking to the eldest prince inside, the slave and maid are standing outside, and I vaguely hear someone scolding outside, shameless or something, the slave and maid thought it was the old woman training the little girl, but it was Mrs. Han who was scolding the second lady?" ”

They all said this, there is no doubt that Mrs. Han is scolding her daughter, but what is the important matter, even if there are guests there, they can't help but reprimand their daughter? This is not like Mrs. Han's style, but Han Yuerou really doesn't look very good, her face is pale and her eyes are sad, and she no longer sees the glory of the past.

"A while ago, the marriage of the second lady was not spreading, and there were all kinds of theories, one moment she said that she was going to the mighty general's mansion to be the stepmother, and the other time she said that she would go to the northwest to marry the general of the border." Cotton folded her hands and counted, "Miss Second is such a delicate person, but her marriage is talked about, and she can't hold it on her face." “

Even if she can't hold it on her face because of this, it won't be that the mother and daughter are not in harmony, Han Yuerou has always been the envy of everyone, not to mention her family, the queen also holds her in the palm of her hand like her own daughter, why did it suddenly become like this?

"Whatever, the people of the Han family are already very weird, and I have never had any dealings with Han Yuerou. As for the favors owed to Han Jiye, they will be repaid if they have the opportunity in the future, and if they don't have a chance, they don't necessarily have to take them seriously. "After all, Chiba doesn't want to have anything to do with the Han Mansion.

Seeing her attitude, Chu Ge blamed herself and talked a lot, naturally she only thought it was interesting to mention it and talk about it. After that, he was also gossiping about interesting things all the way, and when the carriage arrived in front of Wenxian Villa, he saw Huili sitting alone in the pavilion from a distance, and Chiba didn't get out of the carriage and greeted Huili directly.

But Hui Li stayed in the pavilion as if she didn't hear it, Chiba and Chu Ge glanced at each other, she hurriedly got out of the carriage and walked over with Chu Ge, only waiting for someone to come in front of her, Hui Li relieved herself.

"What's the matter, what's the fuss?" Chiba asked uneasily, touching Memori's forehead, "Do you have a fever and feel unwell?" ”

Hui Li shook her head, and immediately told Chiba what had just happened: "Sister-in-law, I met the fourth prince, he sent me out, and told me that he could never forget me since he saw me, and he said that he liked me." ”

Chiba was surprised, Chu Ge was also inexplicable, and Chiba's attitude was obviously something she knew, she immediately asked her sister, "How did you answer?" ”

Hui Li shook her head: "We were separated like this, he was sent by Mr. Wen to take him away, and we didn't continue to talk." ”

Chiba was very nervous, after all, this was something that would never be allowed in front of Joyama, but it was no wonder that her sister took Huili and said gently: "Let's go home first, go home and talk slowly, what should you do if you sit here stupidly and catch a cold?" ”

Huili followed Chiba to the carriage in a daze, but since she had been sitting for so long, she must have thought about a lot of things, and said to Chiba: "Looking back, every time I met him, His Royal Highness was very enthusiastic, and at the party in the Wei Palace, he obviously had no money, as if he was afraid that I would be unhappy, so he bought the coral back." It seems that he didn't deceive, he really liked me from the first time he saw me. ”
