Speaking of the old things around her, Xiangxiang doesn't even know where the little things that she brought into the palace are now, not to mention the little things she put in the swaddling clothes more than ten years ago, she vaguely remembers what it looks like, but she doesn't have a clear and clear memory, Concubine Xian asked, only to respond: "There is nothing, I often think that I am a child who was lost by my family, since it is not my father and mother who want to abandon me, I will not deliberately leave any tokens by my side." Even if they leave a token, what can ordinary people have that they can keep for more than ten or twenty years and still recognize each other? ”

Concubine Xian sighed: "It's hard for you to be in such a state of mind as a child, I may not be so open in my life." He added, "If it is a jade pendant or a golden lock, I am afraid that if you ask your black-hearted masters to exchange money, you will have nowhere to find it for a long time." ”

She stretched out her hand, patted the back of Xiangxiang's hand gently, and said comfortingly: "With a good wife like you by your side, I will have children in the future, and my grandchildren will inevitably get the best upbringing, I have nothing to worry about." ”

Xiangxiang's face turned red, "Niangniang, what are you talking about." ”

Concubine Xian said: "Child, in front of me in the future, call the name of Hui'er, aren't we going to leave the palace, where will the second prince and the second highness come after leaving the palace?" I know you respect me in your heart, and that's enough. ”

This is not a difficult thing, Xiangxiang doesn't have to be too stubborn, it is not easy to make Concubine Xian happy, so he agreed: "I will definitely change." ”

Outside the door, Qi Hui and Shi Feng said goodbye, Shi Feng came in to say goodbye to Concubine Xian, and said that the Mid-Autumn Festival night was causing trouble to the mother, Concubine Xian smiled and said that it was okay, and asked Shi Feng instead: "I heard in the year that a huge person wants to marry a wife for you, and now that the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, why has there been no movement, which daughter has been chosen, I don't know if I have the fate to meet in the future." ”

Shi Feng said with a smile: "My father has been waiting for the princess, he has thought of me in the past two days, and I don't know which family's daughter he will marry, anyway, our brother's marriage, it has never been our turn to make our own decisions, but God bless, don't give me a great one, just live a peaceful life." ”

As he spoke, he looked at Xiangxiang on the side and said with a smile: "Where can I be as blessed as your son." ”

Concubine Xian smiled: "There must be a good marriage, you don't have to envy Hao'er." ”

After a few words of common words, Shi Feng was really leaving, and when he arrived at the door with Qi Hui, he couldn't help but say: "Although Niangniang's spirit is good, but her complexion is too bad, what kind of disease has not been cured, do you want me to find a famous doctor again?" ”

Qi Hui shook his head: "My mother's thoughts, you understand." ”

Shi Feng didn't understand it for a while, but after thinking about it more, he frowned: "Why bother, why bother, the future days of the sea and the sky are high, I am still waiting for her." ”

Qi Hui said: "Be careful in everything, in the future, you and I will have different positions, if there is anything, you don't have to be polite to me." ”

Shi Feng was disdainful and nudged Qi Hui: "What are these words?" ”

Qi Hui said: "The prince wants to destroy the Mo family because he is disgusted with his relatives in the way, and the people of the Mo family will become the shackles of him as the emperor in the future, but your family is different, for him, he still needs a powerful minister Kuang to help the country." The current power of the Pang family is not easy to move, you still have at least ten years to deal with him, how to gain a firm foothold in these ten years depends on whether your father can make a choice. The crown prince doesn't like to be bound, your father is a courtier in peace, instead of being ambitious now, the monarch and the minister can get along, or your father has the courage to force the palace to kill the emperor and the prince now, and support the three princes to ascend the throne. ”

Shi Feng shook his head nonchalantly: "I'm the eldest of my sons, and it's not my turn to speak if something happens, if my father and my brother can't hold on, what use am I?" I only know that we are brothers, and your business in this life is my business. ”

Qi Hao smiled lightly: "Remember." ”

They said goodbye in front of the door, Xiangxiang waited under the eaves, saw their easy-going and intimate words and deeds, and was happy that Qi Hui had such friends and brothers. On the other hand, he thought about it, sure enough, Qi Hui just looked a little indifferent, and he treated everyone who cared about him sincerely, if he could have a happy and peaceful life, what kind of demeanor would he be?

When he was thinking wildly, Qi Hui had already walked towards Xiangxiang, under the bright sunlight, one side of his body was slightly backlit, and the shadow made the outline more distinct, he only smiled slightly, and Xiangxiang's heart lit up. Involuntarily ran up and asked with a smile, "Does Pang Gongzi hate me so much?" He looked at me today and was much kinder. ”

Qi Han smiled: "He didn't hate you in the first place, but he was a little wary and suspicious of the person who suddenly appeared next to me, no one has been able to enter the cold palace and live in it for so many years, he just thinks it's strange." ”

The two of them went to the house and sat down, Qi Hui seemed to be going to write some letter, took out the pen and ink and it had not dried up for a long time, Xiangxiang skillfully helped to moisten the ink and lay the paper, Qi Hui looked at her with some curiosity, and couldn't help asking: "Will you do these things?" ”

Xiangxiang nodded, carefully polished the ink, didn't care about Qi Hui's gaze, and said to himself: "We will go to various places to dance, and the host's taste for dance is also different. However, few people have the patience to learn, and when I meet such a master, most of them are my main dancers, and they are usually Jingshu or other people's main dancers. But Jingshu is impatient after learning a few words, and the master can't let us spend a lot of time practicing writing, and those who are not talented will be counted, probably I am talented, and it won't take long to learn. ”

She said that her excitement flashed, and she proudly gestured and said, "I can hold the big pen and write when I turn around in the air, and it will be done after a few practice." ”

Qi Hui gradually became interested in Xiangxiang's past, and when she saw that she was happy, she listened with interest, and asked why she was not usually the main dancer of Xiangxiang, she smiled, and boasted that she was not shy, but at this time she blushed a little, and whispered: "Most of the guests want us to pose on stage, or show our arms and legs, and the more enchanting the dance, the better." I won't be able to learn that, otherwise I will always be beaten for what I do, and I can't do it well. ”

Qi Hui was distressed, and said softly and domineeringly: "Which one beat you, go and chop his hand in the future." ”

Xiang Xiang smiled, lowered his head and continued to grind the ink: "The masters have taught me the ability to eat, and they won't beat me hard, just forget it." Anyway, when the class master dies, I will set up a monument for him, and he has no less poison. ”

The bright sun shone into the room, stretching the figures of the two, and the sound of grinding ink was light and peaceful, and occasionally there was laughter in it. If it weren't in this imperial city, if it was in a peaceful town or village far away from Gyeonggi, no one would yearn for such a comfortable and beautiful life like a fairy couple. But perhaps the most commendable thing is that in the oppressive and gloomy imperial city, they can still have this leisurely state of mind.

In late autumn, as soon as the sun sets, the weather is cold to the bone, the clothes are not yet thick, and the night wind gusts, making the night walkers shiver. At this moment, everything is silent, only the wind is howling, Jingshu is wrapped in a black cloak, holding the palace wall all the way from Furong House to the East Palace, from last night the emperor was "sick" to this moment, everyone's attention is in the Mingde Palace, she is easier than usual, and she walked to the East Palace.

And even in the Mingde Palace, most of them are the prince's people, and the people here in the East Palace will not be surprised at all when they see Song Jingshu, it has always been the inner attendant who sent Jingshu into the door, and tonight handed her two small medicine bottles, and said expressionlessly: "It is the time to change the medicine for the prince, and it is annoying Jing Mei." ”

Jing Shu came in with a medicine bottle, the prince was lying on the couch, even if he was young in his twenties, he couldn't withstand the beating of more than a dozen whips to death, he smiled at Jing Shu tiredly, and said lazily: "Come and change the medicine for me?" ”

Jingshu cautiously walked to the side of the bed, squatted down on her knees, and asked distressedly, "Is Your Highness still in pain?" ”

"Nonsense, do you want to give it a try?" Qi Xu sneered, reached out and touched her face, "You haven't suffered less, that old thing likes to beat you, doesn't it?" ”

Jingshu's body trembled, she didn't want to say anything, she reached out and lifted the quilt, Qi Xu was still wearing a silver silk bedclothes, she didn't know where to put her hands, Qi Xu didn't mind and said, "Help me take it off." ”

"Yes." Jing Shu didn't hesitate any longer, this was the first time she had touched the prince's body, and it was also something she had longed for for a long time. If it weren't for the fact that the scars on the prince's body were too hideous and terrifying, if it weren't for the fact that he was suffering severe pain, Jingshu would have planned to hook his fire, she didn't believe that she didn't have the ability to tempt the prince to want her.

But none of this happened, the severe pain of the whiplash made the prince struggle to sweat, rubbing medicine on every inch of the wound, it was like taking a whip again, and when Jingshu pulled on his shirt and pants for him, the prince was already so tired that he was about to fall asleep.

Jingshu washed his hands, returned to the bed, knelt on the pedal, and gently wiped his sweat with a silk handkerchief, the prince suddenly opened his eyes and startled him, but Qi Xu asked: "In the past, he beat me, and the queen mother never drugged me, she will always sit there, talking about my no, crying about her hardship." ”

Jingshu pursed her lips, tears of distress swirling.

Qi Xu sneered: "You are so uncomfortable, you are so desperate to me?" ”

Jingshu nodded, bean-sized tears fell, Qi Xu stretched out his hand to pick her chin, and a playful smile hooked his lips: "Be honest, you can stay by my side." ”

"Your Highness, I will listen to you for everything." Jingshu was anxious to confess.

Qi Xu breathed a long sigh of relief, as if he was exhaling the pain of hardship, painfully changed his position and lay on his stomach, panting and asking, "Do you remember that person last night?" ”

Of course, Jingshu remembered that she carefully re-covered the quilt for the prince, and asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, what is going on, why do the guards of the Mingde Hall listen to you?" But why ...... now?"

The crown prince snorted: "How do you think I have lived in this palace for more than twenty years, you think my mother is enough to protect me, these things don't need you to figure out, I said, you can stay by my side if you are honest." ”

Jingshu didn't dare to ask again, and she didn't know what to say, but suddenly thought of Xiangxiang, and said casually: "Your Highness, do you remember the sisters of the concubine?" The concubine met her on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and she was wearing the same night clothes as the one last night. ”

The prince opened his eyes suddenly, and suddenly became interested.
